She seemed to be in a good mood, and unusually, she joked, "Your jacket is nice, and I like the Native American head on the front."
"My mom bought it for me."
Ye Zhi smiled, and after a moment of silence, asked, "How's the recovery going?"
"It's alright... Did you come here specifically for..."
Did you come to see me, or is there something else?
“Your parents went to our sales office… to ask if it was possible to void the previous name change contract… the one that changed your name to Lu Jia.”
I was a little surprised. I didn't expect that Lao Mi and my mom would go to the sales office to ask about this behind my back... They probably communicated with Lu Jia, but didn't get the result they wanted from her.
I stared at Ye Zhi for a long time before replying, "That's a legally binding purchase contract. You can't unilaterally void it, can you?"
Ye Zhi didn't answer directly. Instead, she asked, "What happened between you and Lu Jia? It seems like this house is causing a dispute between you two?"
I've told Ye Zhi more than once that we'll get married after Lu Jia returns to China... Now that she's come here to ask me this question, I feel really embarrassed and ashamed... Actually, Lu Jia and I had already reached this conclusion when she came to see me last time, but I didn't choose to tell her. The main reason I didn't tell her was because of my pride.
I took another deep drag of my cigarette and finally replied, "Don't ask... There's nothing to say about this... We're not right for each other... Otherwise, we wouldn't have broken up three years ago."
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Zhi said, "Please tell your parents for me... Although we are the developer of the houses... we cannot break the contract... because the cost of breaking the contract is too high. If it gets to the ears of other homeowners, it will cause unnecessary panic, and our group's reputation will be damaged... So, I hope they can understand."
“You don’t need to come and explain to me personally… It was wrong of them to go and talk about this in the first place.”
"I'd rather come see you."
