Chapter 419 Negotiable
"I've talked to my mother, and she won't object to us. I'll arrange a meeting for you when you're done with your work here. What happened before was all a misunderstanding. Just talk it out." Lu Jingyou knew what was bothering Su Jiaojiao and comforted her. "Although my mother is a bit strong-willed, she's not unreasonable. She'll figure it out sooner or later. Besides, we'll live in the suburbs of Beijing from now on, not with her. At most, we'll see each other during the holidays."
Because of Yu Mingyuan's matter, he did talk to Lin Manli.
Lin Manli said that she would no longer be involved in his affairs and he could marry whoever he wanted. He was not trying to get his mother's opinion, but he didn't want her to have any conflicts with Su Jiaojiao anymore.
"Anyway, I won't go to your house until her attitude towards me changes." Su Jiaojiao didn't mean to cut off the affection between the mother and son, but the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law itself is a sensitive topic. No matter how long they haven't seen each other in the future, they will have to meet again.
She froze when she met Lin Manli.
We met a few more times after that, but there was no sign of breaking the ice.
In such a situation, why would she bother herself by going to his house to meet his parents?
She is not in a hurry.
"I will continue to work hard and strive to bring you home by the end of the year." Seeing that she was unwilling, Lu Jingyou couldn't force her, so he mentioned the house matter, "The houses in the first phase of Lakeside Villa will be completed by the end of the year, and you can move in in the second half of next year."
"So fast?" Su Jiaojiao knew the location of Lakeside Villa, which was right beside the tunnel entrance. The last time she went there, it was still a wasteland with barren mountains and a few narrow paths.
"Yes, because I'm anxious to get married, so the progress over there has to be faster." Lu Jingyou stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms. "You can move in with me in the second half of next year. There are beautiful green areas over there, and there are also tea plantations and botanical gardens. I'm sure you will like it."
The lakeside villa is built entirely according to the terrain and is built on the mountain.
He likes it best because the original slope and most of the vegetation have been retained.
"I focus on the present, but you always describe the future to me." Su Jiaojiao always thinks of the worst when encountering things, but he always thinks of the best. This is the biggest difference between her and him. "To be honest, I have no intention of marrying you yet."
She was wondering if she could get a suitable plot of land at tomorrow's land auction, and he was thinking of going with her to see the tea plantation and botanical garden at Lakeside Villa in the second half of next year.
As for whether to move in with him, she hasn't decided yet. If she hasn't made up her mind, she will leave it to time. Time will solve everything.
"Then when will you think about getting married?" Lu Jingyou asked her. As long as she was willing, he would do it anytime.
"Around 30 years old!" By that time she had a house and a company, and everything was basically on track, so she could consider getting married.
"How old will I be when you're thirty?" Lu Jingyou laughed when she put him seven or eight years behind. "Boss Su, could you consider me?"
"You asked me when I would like to get married, so I told you the truth." Su Jiaojiao also smiled, "Then when do you want to get married?"
"Next year," Lu Jingyou said without hesitation. "Getting married means getting a marriage certificate and holding a wedding. You can do whatever you want after marriage. It won't affect your work, and it's not as complicated as you think. Why do you have to wait until you're thirty?"
"What are you thinking? I won't graduate until next year!" Su Jiaojiao said incredulously, "Of course you men do what you're supposed to do after you get married. How can women do the same?"
If they get married, their family might encourage them to have children.
It's definitely different.
"Why is it different? I told you, you can do whatever you want." Lu Jingyou realized this as he spoke. He hugged her and fell on the bed, looking at her sideways, "Have you thought about having children after we get married?"
Su Jiaojiao was embarrassed when her thoughts were exposed by him.
How did we end up chatting about this topic...
"You are responsible for giving birth, and I am responsible for raising the child. You don't have to worry about anything." Seeing her blush, Lu Jingyou kissed her hard...
When Cai Ting woke up, it was already bright outside. She saw Su Jiaojiao sleeping on the bed and felt relieved. She thought Su Jiaojiao didn't come back to the room last night!
As soon as she got up, Su Jiaojiao also woke up. She took her phone and looked at the clock: "It's only seven o'clock, there's no need to rush."
"When did you come back last night?" Cai Ting asked her while sitting beside her bed.
"I came back after chatting for a while." When Su Jiaojiao came back, Cai Ting had already fallen asleep.
"It was almost twelve o'clock when I went to bed, and you didn't come back." Cai Ting saw that Su Jiaojiao didn't show any abnormality and teased her, "Are you two..."
"Don't guess blindly, how is it possible..." Su Jiaojiao was embarrassed by her question, "He has a flight at 7:30 this morning, he should be almost at the airport by now."
"A business trip again?" Cai Ting stood up and walked to the window to look out. "I thought President Lu was going to treat us to a big dinner today!"
"It's the same if I treat you." Su Jiaojiao couldn't sleep either, so she called Ding Linyu to ask about the situation in Wudaokou.
Ding Linyu said that sales in the past two days were not as good as in the previous few days, mainly because there were more and more floral shirts on the market and the prices were getting cheaper and cheaper.
She also asked Su Jiaojiao if she wanted to lower the price as well.
Su Jiaojiao said not to lower the price yet and wait until they go back.
Ding Linyu also said that Lin Manling deliberately went against them, snatching customers at the door, and told customers that all floral shirts were of the same quality and that their two stores sold them at particularly high prices.
"Don't bother with her." Su Jiaojiao didn't take Lin Manling seriously at all. "Let's just sell our own products."
At nine o'clock in the morning, the land auction in the suburban counties of Beijing officially began. There were two plots of land, both located around the film and television city. The competition was fierce. Fang Zeyang raised his bid twice and gave up because it was too expensive.
Su Jiaojiao was a temporary participant and was not qualified to bid. She saw that the man in the red suit from last night was also there and was very active in the venue, but he did not compete to the end and gave up after bidding 500,000.
"Even small plots of land are so expensive, I don't think we can get them." Fang Zeyang whispered, "Once the tunnel is opened, the land prices here will change every day. The houses in Tianyi Huayuan have increased by another 100 yuan per square meter. You've made a fortune."
"I just got some good things from you." Su Jiaojiao smiled, "I'll treat you to lunch today."
"Let's do it another day. I have other things to do today. My old man contacted a piece of land and asked me to go take a look." Fang Zeyang was not interested in this plot of land, so he just dropped the number plate. "Look at that man in the red suit. His name is Tang Youxin, from New Century Investment Company. I heard that his family is in the red wine business. He is a rich second-generation and has been abroad. I thought he would take this land, but he just faked it and gave it to someone else."
Su Jiaojiao was filled with even more doubts.
If she had sufficient funds, she would definitely buy the land she wanted to buy and would never give it to anyone else.
"By the way, Tang Youxin has cooperation intentions with Jiahe Group." Fang Zeyang added, "Before you came, I talked to him. He said that he and Lu Jiaping are friends and have invested in film and television together before."
Su Jiaojiao knew that Lu Jiaping had invested in film and television, and heard that he had lost a lot of money.
In other words, Lu Jiaping recommended his former partner Tang Youxin to Lu Jingyou.
