Chapter 504 That's His Reverse Scale
Originally, Yan Huai wanted to detain Ilia for five days and then release her.
But after this conversation, he suddenly changed his mind.
Yan Huai asked the young police officer, "What is the maximum detention period?"
"Thirty-seven days."
"Then let her stay for the rest of her time."
"?" The young police officer opened his mouth wide.
Office of Xie Zhen, Municipal Party Committee.
Xie Zhen didn't comment on Yan Huai's decision, and only said, "...Does your father agree with you doing this?"
"If he doesn't agree, can he still reach out to you?"
Yan Huai sat on the sofa, leaning lazily against the back of the sofa, his face calm and composed, "When Ilia comes out, I will send her back to Philadelphia."
"You kid, you're using me as a gun, right?"
Xie Zhen smiled helplessly and looked at him inquiringly, "Are you so angry this time because of Miss Tang?"
Last time at the police station, he discovered that Yan Huai had a special feeling towards the girl named Tang.
Yan Huai did not deny it and said, "...her temper must be changed."
It's not that Ilia doesn't know that her behavior is wrong. She knows it very well in her heart. She just relies on Xie Zhen to do whatever she wants.
It won't hurt unless the knife cuts your own body.
In the past, when Ilia acted recklessly, Yan Huai only scolded her a few words, helped her to resolve the trouble, and compensated the victims.
If Ilia had targeted someone else this time, Yan Huai might not have been so angry.
But it was Ilia who touched Tang Shishi.
That is his Achilles' heel.
Xie Zhen shook his head calmly, "She's already this old, if she could change she would have done so long ago... Miss Tang and Ilia have already formed a grudge, I'm afraid it will only give you more headaches in the future."
When Yan Huai was lost, Xie Shu and his wife transferred all their love to their daughter, so much so that Ilia became spoiled and willful, and she didn't know her place.
Later, Yan Huai was found, and Xie Shu tried his best to make amends, but he still loved his daughter who grew up by his side more, not to mention Mr. Wilson.
He had seen the scenes of Yan Huai and his son interacting with each other. They always talked about official business, and were cold and distant, without a trace of humanity.
Wilson treated Yan Huai like a qualified prince, not a son.
"Shishi doesn't know my identity yet," Yan Huai said, "If I marry Shishi in the future, I will definitely not live at home."
"What if? The revolution hasn't succeeded yet?" Xie Zhen smiled teasingly.
"Not yet, but... it should be soon."
"What do you mean?" Xie Zhen asked curiously, seeing the confidence in his eyes.
Yan Huai briefly mentioned the agreement between him and Tang Shishi.
Xie Zhen laughed and pointed at him with his index finger, "You are so insidious."
"How can this be called insidious? This is called outsmarting. When the time comes, I'll have to ask my cousin to help me put on a show."
"I can act with you, too."
"No, if you come, it will only backfire."
It was just Xie Qing's wishful thinking that Tang's father would let him marry Shishi immediately.
But if Xie Zhen gets involved, Tang's father will probably be afraid of offending the Xie family and will directly separate him and Shishi.
"Miss Tang has been wronged by this matter. It was your sister who did it. You must compensate her properly."
"I see."
…
On the night of the accident, Tang Shishi slept with Wen Liang.
When Tang Shishi woke up in the morning, she opened her eyes and saw the scene in front of her. She closed her eyes again and rubbed it, feeling the softness and warmth. She said with satisfaction, "Finally, I have the chance to bury it."
Wen Liang: “…”
In the morning, Wen Liang accompanied Tang Shishi to buy a new mobile phone and a new phone card, and then went shopping outside.
After the scare yesterday, Tang Shishi planned to spend more money to compensate herself. Before long, her hands were filled with all kinds of bags, big and small.
At noon, Yan Huai took Tang Shishi to have lunch, while Wen Liang went to the hospital to visit Fu Shifan.
In the car, Tang Shishi sat in the passenger seat, fiddling with the bracelet she had just bought. "Does it look good?"
Yan Huai glanced at it and said, "Yeah."
Her wrist was slender and pretty, except for an untimely red mark on it, caused by the rope yesterday.
"Where are we going to eat? To thank you for rescuing me yesterday, I'm treating you today. Order whatever you want." Tang Shishi said.
"Whatever." Yan Huai saw that she was not affected by what happened yesterday and smiled. "Which of the three houses did you like yesterday?"
Tang Shishi thought for a moment and gave a serious assessment. "Think about it, the house should be large enough to at least keep us from disturbing each other, plus have some room for leisure and entertainment. Moyin Garden is in a good location, right in the city center, but I think the floor space is a bit small. As for Waterside, it's a bit far from my home, and the layout is average. If I want to decorate it according to my own ideas, it will definitely cost a lot of money, but the price-performance ratio is already acceptable. As for Anjiang Mansion..."
"how?"
"Everywhere is good, but the price-performance ratio is not high, as it's just the two of us living here..." She said this, but her tone was full of nostalgia.
"Which one do you like best, regardless of external factors?"
"Anjiang Prefecture." Tang Shishi said without thinking.
"Okay, after we finish eating, we'll go to the real estate company to sign the contract."
Tang Shishi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at his profile. "What did you say?"
Could she be hallucinating?
"I said, after we finish our meal, we will go to sign the contract with the real estate company." Yan Huai turned his head to look at her and repeated.
"What contract?"
"House purchase contract."
“Which house to buy?”
"Anjiang Mansion, don't you like it?"
“…”
Tang Shishi's lips curled up, unable to suppress it, "Yan Huai, are you serious?"
"certainly."
She almost laughed out loud, but she managed to hold it back and said, "But, the price of that house is not cheap..."
"It's okay. Mr. Xie knows we want to buy a house, and as an apology, he can provide us with some support."
"...Can I not have this support?"
"What's wrong?"
"I just want Ilia to go back to Philadelphia and never come back."
Yan Huai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ilia will definitely be sent back to Philadelphia. This has nothing to do with this support."
"Oh...then I'd better take it."
Tang Shishi immediately changed her words, thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I'll call Aliang and ask if I can ask Fu Hun...Fu Zheng for a discount."
Wen Liang was having lunch with Fu Zheng and Fu Shifan in the hospital.
After receiving Tang Shishi's call, she relayed it to Fu Zheng.
Fu Zheng casually said, "You can give him a 5% discount and give him an extra set of furniture. I'll talk to the people at the real estate company."
"Okay, I'll tell her then."
Fu Zheng added, "The house over there is really nice. I've also reserved one. If you like it, we can live there in the future."
Wen Liang raised an eyebrow, "Let's talk about it later."
After receiving the feedback, Tang Shishi excitedly conveyed it to Yan Huai.
Tang Shishi enjoyed her lunch very much and ate very quickly.
The two went to the sales office of Anjiang Mansion and were invited to the lounge. The attitude of the staff there was very thoughtful and considerate.
After the shopping guide learned some information, he went to prepare the contract.
Watching her leave, Tang Shishi pulled Yan Huai's sleeve and whispered, "Hey, why did you say full payment just now? I don't have much money on hand, what if it's not enough..."
