Chapter 1071 A Boyfriend I Have Never Met
Kyoto, Second Ring Road.
"Xuefeng, if we had known we were going to Rong Mansion for dinner, we wouldn't have driven here."
He Meicheng, who was sitting in a red Volkswagen Golf, said awkwardly.
"There are million-level luxury cars at the entrance of Rong Mansion Banquet Hall. Why don't we stop at the opposite side of the road?"
Tian Xuefeng, who was concentrating on driving, didn't care and said.
"Back when I was still a kid, I would come to Rongfuyan once a month. The waiters knew me, so there was nothing to be ashamed of. How many people who can eat here don't have status? Many big leaders also drive cars worth more than 100,000 yuan here."
Tian Xuefeng said, glancing at his wife, "You just can't let go of your previous identity. Our family is different now, you have to accept it."
He Meicheng felt a little embarrassed by what her husband said.
She snorted and said, "Speaking of me...why don't you educate your daughter?"
"Xinxin, what's wrong? She's doing well in college and getting excellent grades in every subject. Why should I worry about her?"
"Don't talk nonsense to me. Don't you know what I mean? Our daughter has been spoiled since she was a child. After what happened to you, our family has fallen on hard times. She can't stand the hard life. As a mother, I can understand, but she...but her boyfriend..."
He Meicheng said this with her voice choked with sobs.
She was feeling sorry for her daughter.
"Hey, let me tell you, your child is already in college. She has a boyfriend, why are you crying?"
"Tian Xuefeng, you're not at home every day and you don't spend time with your daughter. I've raised her since she was a child, and I know her personality very well. If that man was really her boyfriend, she would have been eager to tell the whole world about it. But until now, have you seen a photo of her boyfriend?"
He Meicheng's words choked Tian Xuefeng.
Yeah, it's been over a year.
I have never seen my daughter post any information about her boyfriend on her Moments, WeChat, Weibo, or Douyin.
You have to know that your daughter is the kind of girl who will take nine pictures and post them on WeChat Moments when she buys a pen.
But in all these days, she has never posted any photo of that man.
"Maybe the boy is just plain-looking... not photogenic?" Tian Xuefeng tried to explain.
He Meicheng said unhappily, "What's wrong with being ordinary? As long as one has good character, what is there to be ashamed of?"
"What do you mean?" Tian Xuefeng said impatiently.
"I...I was wondering, could it be that my daughter's boyfriend is not her college classmate..."
As soon as he said this, Tian Xuefeng slammed on the brakes.
His face turned red and he glared at his wife.
"He Meicheng, do you know something? Are you preparing me mentally in advance?!"
Tian Xuefeng has been working at a high level in the workplace for decades.
He has seen all kinds of dinner parties, drinking parties, and parties with beautiful women.
It is not uncommon for a young and beautiful girl to commit herself to an old man.
It is very common and normal in high society.
Tian Xuefeng can accept other people's distorted values and chaotic private lives.
But he didn't allow his daughter to do that.
He Meicheng punched Tian Xuefeng twice. "Mr. Tian, are you crazy? Do you think I, He Meicheng, am that kind of person? If my daughter did something like this, would I help her cover it up?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Xuefeng breathed a sigh of relief.
He continued to step on the accelerator.
He Meicheng sat back angrily.
"I have asked my daughter many times, and she always told me that he was her classmate. The boy is handsome and treats her very well. But I am still worried...so I have been urging you to raise money quickly so that we can return the money to him. Even if two people are in love, our family cannot be after their money, lest they look down on us. Once a girl is considered by the other party to be after money during the relationship, she will be degraded to a lower level invisibly."
Tian Xuefeng listened and added a sentence unconsciously.
"That's a nice thing to say. Why haven't I seen you return the salary I handed in after we started dating?"
As soon as Tian Xuefeng finished speaking, he felt the temperature in the car dropped by more than 10 degrees.
The wife standing next to him couldn't hide the murderous intent in her heart.
Tian Xuefeng quickly said, "Oh, I was just kidding. I just think this topic is too heavy and I want to liven up the atmosphere."
"If I saw you weren't driving, Tian Xuefeng, I would have beaten the hell out of you!" He Meicheng automatically switched to Northeastern dialect mode when she spoke harshly.
Tian Xuefeng swallowed his saliva and changed the subject, "Alas, I have worked hard all my life, investing and struggling. I wanted to leave a generous dowry for Xinxin, but in the end, it was all for nothing."
Tian Xuefeng's words were filled with sighs.
He had met a friend before and learned how to trade stocks from him.
The family’s savings of 500 million yuan was invested, and the stock price hit the limit down several times, which made me very anxious.
In the end, he got carried away and embezzled 1000 million yuan from the company to cover his losses.
As a result, even the 1000 million yuan that was used to cover the position was lost.
A few days later, the truth was revealed.
Fortunately, his old leader gave him seven days to make up for the loss.
But where does Tian Xuefeng have ten million?
If you sell your garage and car house in a hurry, the price will be lowered and you won't be able to raise 10 million.
Tian Xuefeng was completely desperate and wanted to divorce his wife and jump off the building to avoid dragging down his family.
But just as he was about to take action.
Tian Xin returned home with 10 million.
Help him through this difficult time.
At first, Tian Xuefeng was reluctant to take the money.
Ten million is a huge sum of money. Tian Xuefeng couldn’t figure out where his daughter could get so much money.
But Tian Xin insisted that it was borrowed from her new boyfriend.
Tian Xuefeng is not a stubborn person. After his daughter's repeated assurances, he found a way to make money.
Tian Xuefeng took the 10 million and returned it to the company.
Although the hole was filled, his career was over.
He was originally on the front line, but was moved to the corner and then retreated.
After retiring, Tian Xuefeng began to sell his family assets to raise money.
Finally, two days ago, Tian Xuefeng, who had sold everything he had, finally raised 10 million yuan.
So he immediately asked his daughter to ask her boyfriend out.
You should thank the other party in person and return the money.
Such behavior also allows the daughter to maintain an equal position in the relationship between the two.
Tian Xuefeng's sigh aroused He Meicheng's empathy.
However, her empathy was not due to the changes that happened at home.
"Alas...Xinxin has been alone since she was young. As for marriage...the two of us can't even afford to buy her a house..."
As she spoke, tears welled up in He Meicheng's eyes.
"Bah! Bah! Bah!! He Meicheng, don't you dare mention that again!!!"
He Meicheng realized that she had said something wrong and quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
The red Volkswagen Golf quickly turned into the alley where the Rongfu Banquet was located...
