Before the car reached the intersection, Chen Xu stopped the car and said, "I'll get off here."

"Um."

"Go to bed early when you get back." Chen Xu unbuckled his seat belt, leaned over, gave her a light kiss on the face, and got out of the car.

He waited until the car disappeared from the road before turning around and walking home.

…………

After that, Chen Xu picked up Yang Jinxia from get off work every day and they went on dates together in the evening. Their days were leisurely and sweet.

He was very satisfied with such a life. As long as he could pay off the family debt and buy two houses, one for his parents and one for himself, it would be perfect.

He is confident that he can achieve these goals within two years.

But, is Yang Jinxia willing to live with him forever? He doesn't know. What can be said for sure in this world?

Before they knew it, it was already New Year's Eve. Chen Xu and his friends had their New Year's Eve dinner at around four or five in the afternoon.

After dinner, Chen Xu watched TV with his parents in the living room for a while. At about seven o'clock, he said goodbye to them and went out.

After he left, Zeng Wenli complained, "I don't know what this kid is thinking. No matter how much we persuade him, he just won't bring his girlfriend back."

Chen Xinwen said, "Xiao Xu naturally has his own ideas. If he doesn't want to do it, it's useless to force him."

"How can I feel at ease without seeing that girl with my own eyes?"

Chen Xinwen said, "So what if you saw it? If you are not satisfied, can you force him to break up?"

Zeng Wenli was speechless. Not to mention whether she would do this, even if she did, her son would definitely not listen to her.

The advantage of her son is that he is independent and opinionated. The disadvantage is that he is too opinionated and never discusses anything with them. After he started working, he used his salary to help pay off the family debts, and this time he also did the same with his girlfriend.

She said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm just curious. I want to see what kind of girl she is. I don't believe that you don't want to see her at all."

Chen Xinwen said, "I believe in Xiaoxu's vision."

Zeng Wenli felt that she couldn't make sense with him, so she didn't bother to pay attention to him and turned to ask Chen Ziqi, "Qiqi, you must have seen that girl."

Chen Ziqi blinked and said, "I've seen it once from a distance."

"What does he look like?"

"very beautiful."

"Really?" Zeng Wenli suddenly became interested and asked, "What about other situations?"

Chen Ziqi shook his head, "I'm not sure about these."

"Qiqi, you get along well with your brother, how about you go and ask around?"

"Oh, right." Chen Ziqi seemed to have remembered something and said, "Her family should be quite rich."

Zeng Wenli immediately felt a little guilty, "How rich is he?"

"Just the car she drives costs more than 400,000 yuan."

Zeng Wenli remained silent. The total debt their family owed was only a few hundred thousand.

At this time, Chen Xinwen next to him sighed and said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so we should stop worrying so much."

Zeng Wenli was furious and said, "Isn't it all your fault? If you hadn't trusted the wrong person, would our family be like this now? I told you long ago that the person is unreliable, unreliable, and you insisted..."

"What are you saying in front of the child?" Chen Xinwen looked a little embarrassed.

Zeng Wenli wanted to say something, but Chen Ziqi beside her hurriedly pulled her back and said, "Aunt, today is New Year's Eve, let's talk about something happy."

Zeng Wenli snorted and stopped talking about those topics.

…………

Chen Xu didn't know that his parents almost quarreled because of him. He was walking towards Yang Jinxia's workplace. Today was New Year's Eve, and it was difficult to find a motorcycle taxi.

It was very windy on the road and the temperature was about 7 or 8 degrees, which was a bit cold.

He walked for a while, then became worried that Yang Jinxia was waiting for him, so he started running.

Yang Jinxia's company's property was launched the day before yesterday, and she became very busy, working overtime until after nine o'clock these two days. He brought her lunch every day.

Today is New Year's Eve, so I still have to work overtime.

When he arrived at the property, he was sweating a little, but not seriously. He took off his coat, held it in his hand, combed his hair, and walked into the sales office.

Once you enter the hall, you'll see a huge residential community model with a lot of people gathered around it. There's also a salesperson in a suit holding a laser pen, explaining things to people excitedly.

"Hey, Chen Xu, you're an adult, but you still come to see Xia Xia. You're so concerned about her. Are you afraid that she might change her mind?" A female salesperson saw him and teased.

During this period, Chen Xu came to pick up Yang Jinxia every day and became familiar with all of her colleagues.

He smiled and asked casually as he walked, "It's so late, why haven't you finished get off work yet?"

"Not yet. Alas, we all have hard lives."

As he was talking, Chen Xu had already turned into the passage next to him. The first window was the payment window. There were seven or eight people queuing there, waiting to pay. Some were discussing something with each other, while others were talking loudly on the phone, making it quite noisy.

One of his colleagues saw him and said, "Look for Xia Xia. She seems to have gone over there to get something."

"Thank you." Chen Xu thanked her and looked in the direction she pointed. He saw Yang Jinxia walking towards him, with a tall man beside her.

The man was over 1.80 meters tall and handsome. He kept talking to Yang Jinxia.

Yang Jinxia held a stack of folders in her hands, with a cold face, and ignored him, "I'm not a salesperson. If you want to buy a house, go to the lobby..." As she spoke, she looked up and saw Chen Xu, with a look of joy on her face, "Chen Xu, you're here."

The man saw this icy beauty change her expression in an instant, and in shock, he saw her jogging into a man's arms. Then, he saw the man kiss her on the lips.

For a moment, he felt as if his heart was stabbed by something, and there was a sharp pain.

"Missed me?"

I vaguely heard the man asking.

"Yeah." The woman replied.

He stared blankly at the woman with unique temperament who made his heart beat faster at first sight, and suddenly turned away dejectedly.

That man couldn't compare to him in terms of looks, but the way the girl looked at him made him realize that he had no chance.

…………

After the tall man left, Chen Xu let go of Yang Jinxia. She was still holding a stack of documents in her arms, which was pressing in the middle, making her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Are you jealous?" She leaned close to him and whispered in his ear.

"Why should I be jealous?"

"You've never kissed me like this in front of so many people before."

"Isn't this New Year's Eve? I'm too happy for the moment."

Yang Jinxia rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're just being stubborn." After she said that, she walked into the payment room, put the documents away, picked up her bag, said hello to her colleagues, and left.

"Let's go." She took Chen Xu's hand and walked out.

"Goodbye." Chen Xu waved goodbye to her colleagues.

These days, he has confirmed that Yang Jinxia did get in through connections, just as she said in her dream. She has a high status in the company. When other colleagues make mistakes, the manager scolds them. Even when she leaves early, the manager is polite.

As for the specific situation of Yang Jinxia's family, she didn't tell him, and he didn't ask. He just felt a little more stressed, thinking about how to make more money in the shortest time.

Although he was eager to make money before, he didn't put too much pressure on himself. Now, he has an urgent need.

That kind of urgent feeling was just like when he was a junior in college, he saw his father humbly begging the teacher in the school admissions office to let them owe part of the tuition first.

…………

Instead of going out, they went to where Yang Jinxia lived, in a nearby residential area that was also built last year.

She lives on the top floor, a small apartment with two bedrooms and a living room, about 70 square meters in size. It is beautifully decorated and fully equipped with home appliances. She said she rents the place.

After entering the house, the two took off their coats. The air conditioner was turned on all the time and the temperature inside was over 20 degrees.

Just from this detail, we can see Yang Jinxia's habit of spending money.

"What do you want to eat today?" Chen Xu rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen.

"Please take a look at what food is in the refrigerator. I'll go change my clothes first." Yang Jinxia tied her hair behind her head and went into the bedroom.

Chen Xu opened the refrigerator door. All the food was bought yesterday. They were basically untouched. There was a lot of food, enough for them to cook a few meals. He picked a few and washed them under the tap.

After a while, Yang Jinxia changed into a white short-sleeved T-shirt and came out, walking to his side to help him.

Chen Xu smiled at her, and after a while, he couldn't help but look at her again, and sighed in his heart, there really are people who look good in any clothes. A simple T-shirt looks particularly good on her, which is completely different from when she wears a shirt.

Yang Jinxia liked the look in his eyes and said, "Is it true that only people who like cooking can make dishes so delicious? I cooked according to your instructions, but the taste is so different."

"Actually, I don't like cooking. I hate cooking fumes. I feel uncomfortable when I see greasy food." Chen Xu shook his head and said, "I treat it as a job."

"Then I'll do it next time."

Chen Xu still shook his head, "It's good for us to do this together."

Indeed, the two of them washed the vegetables together, one cooked and the other lent a hand, and they didn't feel tired at all.

Soon, four dishes and one soup were ready and served on the table.

Yang Jinxia had already opened a bottle of red wine and poured it into a decanter. After sitting down, she poured a glass for each person and raised her glass, "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year." Chen Xu took a sip of red wine and said, "I'm not going home tonight."

As if she had drunk some wine, two blushes appeared on Yang Jinxia's face.

PS: Please give me a monthly ticket.
