Chapter 1523 Learn to be the master of your own life
"How much do you get as a gift for marrying Lin Jiayu to that man?"
Just then, a male voice sounded, and a man who had just walked outside the crowd walked into the crowd.
"Zhang Hao, why are you here?" Lin Jiayu was very surprised and a little worried when she saw the person coming.
The man called Zhang Hao did not respond to Lin Jiayu, but stared coldly at Lin Jiayu's parents, waiting for their answer.
When Lin Jiayu's parents saw the person coming, they were slightly stunned, but they knew the other person. The other party was Lin Jiayu's boyfriend. However, because of his poor conditions, they did not agree.
"200,000," Lin Jiayu's mother said, looking at Zhang Hao with contempt.
Because in their eyes, Zhang Hao is just a poor worker, so let alone two hundred thousand, he might not even have tens of thousands!
"Okay, I'll give you 300,000 yuan if you marry Lin Jiayu to me. But in addition, you have to agree to one condition of mine and sign an agreement," said Zhang Hao.
Hearing this, Lin Jiayu and her parents were stunned.
Three hundred thousand? Where did he get three hundred thousand?
"Zhang Hao, where did you get 300,000 yuan? Don't talk nonsense. Don't worry, I won't marry that man." Lin Jiayu immediately stopped him, fearing that Zhang Hao would say this and be entangled by his own parents. She knew very well what kind of people his own parents were.
Zhang Hao looked at Lin Jiayu and asked affectionately and firmly, "Jiayu, believe me, okay?"
“······”Lin Jiayu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn’t know what to say.
Although he didn't know where Zhang Hao got so much money, he knew that Zhang Hao was not talking nonsense, so he didn't interrupt for the time being.
When Lin Jiayu's parents heard about the money, they immediately laughed and asked, "Really? What are the conditions?"
"The condition is that you can't ask Lin Jiayu for a penny again. If you go back on your word and make trouble again, I won't be polite to you." Zhang Hao said.
"Okay!" Hearing this, Lin Jiayu's mother immediately responded that she didn't care about the future! First get 300,000 yuan first.
"Zhang Hao, they..." Lin Jiayu was anxious. Her parents had agreed now, but after he and they got married, they would definitely regret it. They would not stop until they had tricked her to death.
"Jiayu, don't worry, believe me." Zhang Hao knew what Lin Jiayu was worried about. He also knew that even if Lin Jiayu's parents agreed now, they would regret it in the future, but he wouldn't allow them to do that.
It's just that now that they are here, he can't explain it to her.
"You silly girl, hurry up and prepare to marry Zhang Hao! It would be best if it was early next month. Your brother is waiting for money for National Day's wedding! If you mess things up, I'll show you how I'll deal with you." Lin Jiayu's father was afraid that Lin Jiayu would persuade Zhang Hao to go back on his word, so he immediately threatened Lin Jiayu.
Everyone felt sympathy for Lin Jiayu. Having such parents was the worst misfortune she had ever known.
Lin Jiayu was not only disappointed and heartbroken, but she also hated her parents. Before, she had thought about leaving and never coming back.
But think about it, they are her parents after all. Even if they are heartless, she can't be too unrighteous.
Of course, this was her previous thought, but it’s gone now, really gone, because this time, she was completely heartbroken.
After warning Lin Jiayu, Lin Jiayu's parents left.
Then, it was time for everyone to disperse. At this time, they saw Gu Ning and were startled. They quickly called him "Chairman" respectfully.
Oh my god! When did the boss get here?
It was already ten minutes past nine, and it was already working time. If the boss saw them standing around, would he scold them? But even if he did, they wouldn't complain, because after all, they were wrong.
Everyone in the company had a deep understanding of Gu Ning's abilities. Of course, this was limited to what they had seen online. So, no one dared to look down on her just because she was young.
On the contrary, they all respect and fear her.
"Well, let's get to work!" Gu Ning didn't lose his temper or curse at anyone. Although they were indeed wrong, Gu Ning was not a rigid person.
As long as the work is done well, it is allowed to be a little lazy.
"Yes." Gu Ning's words made all the employees feel as if they had been pardoned, and they immediately returned to the company.
Lin Jiayu did not go back immediately, but looked at Gu Ning in awe and nervousness, then bowed and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Chairman, because my parents' affairs have affected the company."
"It's okay. It won't have that much of an impact, but you have to learn to take charge of your own life. You can listen to and compromise with some of your parents' words, but you have to learn to resist and refuse unreasonable requests," said Gu Ning.
Gu Ning didn't want to say too much about other people's family background, but if it were Gu Ning, and met such parents, she would definitely resist to the end.
Of course, some things cannot be said easily. After all, everyone’s abilities are different, but one’s bottom line cannot be lost.
Because of cowardice, you are destined to be bullied. Only by being tough can you have a chance to turn the tables.
"Yes, I understand, Chairman." Lin Jiayu was flattered by Gu Ning's concern and responded quickly.
"If your matters are urgent, just deal with your own affairs first. If they are not urgent, then go to work first and deal with them when necessary." Gu Ning knew that they had something to discuss right now, so he was understanding. If they were in a hurry, they didn't have to wait until Lin Jiayu got off work to talk to them.
"Thank you, Chairman," Lin Jiayu immediately apologized gratefully. She did have something she needed to ask Zhang Hao right away. If Gu Ning hadn't said that, she would have taken the initiative to ask for leave for a while, but she wouldn't have delayed much working time.
Gu Ning nodded and left, and Song Manni followed.
"I really don't know how these parents act as parents. Although most families favor sons over daughters, it's too much to sell their daughter just for the dowry money for their son." Song Manni couldn't help but complain.
Sell? It really is selling! For an ordinary family, a dowry of 200,000 or 300,000 is extremely high, and it is obvious that Lin Jiayu's parents cannot afford a dowry.
This was the first time she had encountered parents who were so excessive!
Although I have heard of similar things before, I have never seen them with my own eyes, so I don’t feel it is that serious. If I saw them with my own eyes, I would feel indignant.
"Yes! There are all kinds of people in this world. If you are weak, you are destined to be bullied. Only if you are strong can you have a chance to turn things around and be the master." Gu Ning also sighed.
The Gu family also seriously favors boys over girls, but compared to Lin Jiayu's family, it is much less so.
