However, mutually beneficial matters can be considered; I just don’t know what the bidding price is.
As she raised her head, she caught a glimpse of Shen Chi in the rearview mirror, seemingly aware of her concerns.
“Five million as a starting bid, fluctuating between eight to nine million, or even higher.”
Pfft—
Su Mingxian felt like she could spit blood. “Isn’t that too much? Shanshan, I really admire your ambition, but you should find someone else to try this.”
“Don’t! Sister Xian, I believe in you. By the end of the year, you’ll definitely earn enough to cover this amount.”
After Xi Shanshan finished speaking, Su Mingxian was completely disheartened. “By the end of the year? Please spare me.”
At this point, no matter what Xi Shanshan said, Su Mingxian refused to agree.
Wasn’t this asking for her life?
...
Su Mingxian was adamant against it, and Xi Shanshan returned home looking dejected.
father Xi was lounging on the leather sofa with his legs crossed, reading the newspaper. When he saw his daughter come back, he smiled and asked, “What’s wrong? Didn’t you sell a house today? Why aren’t you happy?”
Xi Shanshan kicked her shoes off one by one and then lay face down on the sofa, feeling utterly dejected. "The house has been sold, but—"
She recounted everything she had seen and heard that day, while father Xi squinted his eyes and smiled. "She disagreed? What about the others? What did Fang Xiaozi say?"
"What else could he say? He wants me to invest in their company, but I'm not that foolish. However, Sister Xian disagrees. Dad, what should I do?" Xi Shanshan looked at him with a face full of grievance.
father Xi chuckled and replied, "Oh dear, that's beyond my control. A Foreign Sales Housing already gave you a 25% discount as a precedent. The rest is up to you to figure out."
"Dad—"
Xi Shanshan looked utterly despondent.
...
"Dang dang dang dang—" Su Mingxian said with a beaming smile, "Look, do you like it?"
"Wow, it's so big!" Qian Qian ran around the living room excitedly and exclaimed, "Mom, is this our new home? Is it real?"
Su Mingxian shook the keys in her hand and laughed, "Is there any doubt?"
Qian Qian's little face flushed with excitement as her eyes sparkled. "Mom, do I have my own room?"
"Of course you do." Su Mingxian smiled as she introduced the two children to their new spaces. "Over there is Mom's room, and this side is your brother's room. And this one is for you, Qian Qian! You wanted to learn piano, right? We'll put the piano right here. And I'll prepare a beautiful princess bed for you, painting the walls pink so that our Qian Qian can sleep like a little princess."
Qian Qian's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Really, Mommy, you are the best!"
She exclaimed, throwing her arms around Su Mingxian's leg, nearly bouncing with joy. But then, as she bounced, a look of confusion crossed her face. "Mommy, where is Daddy's room? Isn't he supposed to be in the same room as you?"
"Um, Daddy is quite busy and won't be staying here anymore," Su Mingxian tried to deflect the question. However, Qian Qian's lips suddenly pouted in anger. "Mommy is lying."
"Daddy promised me that he would have breakfast and dinner with me from now on, and he would tell me stories to help me sleep. But why isn't there a room for Daddy?" Despite her young age, Qian Qian was incredibly sensitive. Tears filled her eyes as she clutched Su Mingxian's hand and pleaded softly, "Mommy, can you and Daddy not get divorced? If you get divorced, I won’t have a daddy anymore. Wuwu..."
Su Mingxian's heart ached at her daughter's words. She quickly set Yang Yang down and comforted her daughter, "Don't say that. Your daddy will always be your daddy; how could he not be? Please don’t cry."
"But Wang Xinrui's mommy and daddy got divorced," Qian Qian said, her voice trembling. "She hasn’t seen her daddy for a long time. She said she doesn’t have a daddy anymore. Wuwu..."
