The summer in Jiangcheng is still scorching hot, the weeping willows in the East Lake are whirling, the water in the Yangtze River is rippling, and the azaleas in the Yellow Crane Tower are about to bloom, creating a vibrant scene.
Cheng Yingying's execution has always been fast. When she arrived at East Lake Tianyue, Zhou Fei and Hua Guoqiang had just prepared dinner.
Including Gu Yun and Shen Qingcheng who insisted on joining in the fun, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively.
Cheng Yingying and Hua Shiyuan are students of the same class, and they are outstanding talents who have won many awards in school. Not only did they cherish each other when they were studying, but even Hua Guoqiang and Zhou Fei heard their daughters talk about this person. .
Of course, from a parent's perspective, the topics we talk to our juniors are always the same.
For example, ask Shen Qingcheng and Cheng Yingying how many brothers and sisters they have, where they are from, what their parents do, etc.
As for the work that the elders must ask about, Zhou Fei was not embarrassed to talk about it.
In the past year, Shen Qingcheng's career has exploded.
Having starred in several best-selling movies, she became famous instantly and was hailed as "a new generation of little flower" by the film industry.
While it became popular in China, it also received individual nominations at three major international film festivals in Europe.
Not only that, Shen Qingcheng was also hired as the image ambassador of Jiangcheng, served as the chairman of the Venice Film Festival jury, had a sold-out personal tour, and was selected into the Forbes Under 30 Elite List that year.
What made her most famous was that in the opening advertisement of Doule, the advertising sponsor of the 2014 Spring Festival Gala, the spokesperson standing in the center of the screen was just as the name suggests - the alluring country and the city.
I can't help it, this face is so recognizable.
So much so that in the first ten minutes when the two elders met Shen Qingcheng, they couldn't say a word for a long time.
It wasn't until I discovered that a well-known celebrity was chatting and joking with her daughter that they were just like sisters teasing each other, that I relaxed my mind.
However, he was still a little restrained when facing Shen Qingcheng, and most of the chat topics still revolved around Cheng Yingying.
"Yingying, do you have a boyfriend? Auntie has an old classmate in Jiangcheng. I watched their son grow up. He has a good personality and good grades, and he is loyal and honest."
Zhou Fei is very fond of Cheng Yingying, who looks quiet and gentle, showing the matchmaker nature of a middle-aged aunt who always pulls strings wherever she goes.
"Auntie, not yet..."
Cheng Yingying glanced at Gu Yun from the corner of her eyes, feeling a little embarrassed and lowered her head.
As for falling in love, you really haven’t yet. You can’t say you’re the lover of the big boss, right?
If Zhou Fei and Hua Guoqiang knew that they had been lying next to Hua Shiyuan and had played with their good son-in-law Gu Yun in the exciting plot they were currently committing, their blood pressure would probably rise to three feet high.
"Mom, are you talking about Xie Bin?"
Hua Shiyuan, who was listening to everyone chatting with her lips pursed, couldn't help it and interrupted.
Jiang Cheng's old classmate, his son is the same age, besides Xie Bin who came to Star City as a guest before, who else is there?
"yes."
Zhou Fei nodded.
"I think he is a very good young man. He graduated from Jiangcheng University and his family is in good condition."
"Oh, my good mother, please don't get involved in Yingying's affairs. Do you know how much tax her company pays Jiangcheng in a year? She also introduces her to others!"
Hua Shiyuan burst into laughter and pointed at Cheng Yingying's ordinary white dress and an ordinary bag with no logo not far away.
"Yingying said she was polite when she worked in the company. Do you still take it seriously?"
"Xie Bin is good, but compared with Yingying, he is not from the same world at all!"
"He can't even afford Yingying's Shadow Birkin with a year's salary. Do you think it's suitable?"
Zhou Fei blinked her eyes and stopped talking.
In Star City, she and Hua Guoqiang were definitely in good condition, at least surpassing 95% of the people would not be a problem.
But even though Fei Zhou can afford some luxury bags and occasionally consumes them, she is far from reaching that level.
A high-end state of traveling in a low-key manner without displaying the logo of luxury goods.
For example, the Hermès "shadow bag" hung not far away by Cheng Yingying uses embossing techniques to create the classic button outline of the platinum bag, creating a unique optical illusion effect.
It doesn’t have a logo anywhere on its body, but it’s very recognizable.
When something like worth reaches a certain level, people who understand it will understand it, but people who don't understand it won't see it at all.
"No, no, no, no, no, don't listen to Yuanyuan's nonsense. I am just a commoner's child. There is no such thing as two worlds. It's just that now I want to put my career first and don't want to fall in love for the time being..."
Cheng Yingying blushed, waved her hands and retorted quickly.
"I understand. Auntie also came here at this time. I understand you."
Zhou Fei took a glass of water and immediately took a big sip to relieve her embarrassment.
She is not interested in the fairy Shen Qingcheng in the sky and only regards her as her daughter's friend. On the contrary, she has a good impression of Cheng Yingying.
After all, she doesn't think the son of an old classmate is worthy of becoming a big star, but the outstanding-looking female white-collar worker in the company is completely different.
Who would have thought that Cheng Yingying would become a golden phoenix in just a few years?
I heard from my daughter that she was still receiving an inspirational scholarship from school!
"Yes, Auntie, not everyone can be like Yuanyuan and meet the person they love for the rest of their lives in school~"
Cheng Yingying smiled and held Zhou Fei's hand, saying softly.
Zhou Fei can gradually recognize Gu Yun, firstly because he treats Hua Shiyuan well and can be said to be meticulous, secondly because of his extremely outstanding personal abilities, and finally because Hua Shiyuan likes Gu Yun very much. This is a "from school uniform to wedding dress"
"Love" deserves the blessings of parents.
These three points can basically allow her to leave her daughter in Gu Yun's hands with confidence.
"You and Qingcheng have to work hard, otherwise when the time comes, Yuanyuan will have a drink and ask her to toss the hydrangea to your place..."
As expected of a woman who has been up and down in the mall for a long time, Cheng Yingying touched Zhou Fei's heart with just a few words.
No matter how rich or famous you are, it will never be worth your daughter's stable happiness.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Okay, okay, Yuanyuan needs to go to bed early tonight, we should go."
While chatting, Gu Yun noticed that the atmosphere had gradually become deserted, so he stood up first and winked at Cheng Yingying.
The latter took out a card from his bag and quietly stuffed it into Gu Yun's hand.
"Auntie, please take this first. We are all a family, so don't be polite to me."
When Hua Guoqiang ran to the rooftop to smoke, Gu Yun handed the card in his hand to Zhou Fei.
"ah?"
Zhou Fei froze on the spot, half pushing and half taking the bank card handed over by Gu Yun.
"This is......?"
"My uncle and I agreed that, aunt, we will leave first."
Gu Yun smiled and kissed Hua Shiyuan, stepped on his shoes, opened the door without any hesitation, and said goodbye to the two girls.
"Oh, okay, drive slower on the road."
In fact, Zhou Fei was pretending to be calm. She had too many things to discuss with her husband and too many questions to ask Hua Shiyuan.
...
"Xiao Gu gave us a card."
After Gu Yun, Shen Qingcheng, and Cheng Yingying left, Zhou Fei immediately ran upstairs and started talking to Hua Guoqiang.
"What does it mean?"
Hua Guoqiang also looked confused.
"I don't know, but he said the password is Yuanyuan's birthday."
"Then let's check the balance."
Hua Guoqiang took out his mobile phone and logged into online banking, holding a burning cigarette between his fingers. Several cigarette butts were also thrown into the ashtray beside him.
After entering the password, a series of numbers will be displayed on the screen after a few seconds.
"24,000,000.00 yuan."
On the opposite side of the screen, the middle-aged couple's expressions changed very much, from being relaxed and treating the bride price as a joke, to seriousness, and then to confusion.
Finally, both of them fell into silence.
"This guy is serious, what do you think?"
Zhou Fei asked.
Although this is a sentence with no beginning or end, the two have been married for so many years, and many things can be understood without having to explain them too clearly.
"I thought he was just using metaphors to show his attitude, but I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, he would be willing to pay more than 20 million in real money."
"I can't understand it now."
Hua Guoqiang pointed at the screen and said.
"A few years ago when he came to my house, he seemed to have said that he would do some Internet business, but who could have imagined that the scale would become so big now."
Zhou Fei bit her lip and frowned: "Before we get married, the eight-digit gift will be paid into the card. From now on..."
"You can give me tens of millions if you want. Do you know what it means?"
Hua Guoqiang took a deep breath and lit another cigarette.
"It shows that his net worth and liquidity far exceed this figure. How old is he!"
"Xiao Gu is only in his early twenties, he hasn't graduated from college yet."
Zhou Fei folded her arms and leaned on the door frame: "The accumulation of wealth is too fast, and it feels like a rocket that is not stable..."
"When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."
Hua Guoqiang let out a long sigh and said with emotion: "Look at the people around him, which one is not flying upward on the wind?"
"Shen Qingcheng is the star single-handedly promoted by Leyuan Group. That Cheng Yingying received school subsidies every year when she was in school. Now she carries a bag worth more than 300,000 yuan!"
Zhou Fei rolled her eyes at her husband, and after a while she said happily: "Fortunately, he is good to Yuanyuan, otherwise our family would really not be able to reach the level of Xiao Gu."
Hua Guoqiang flicked the ash from his cigarette: "He doesn't need money now. We will do more in the future to help take care of the children and so on."
Zhou Fei said softly, "Hmm", but she did not leave the rooftop.
She still had to digest the fact that 24 million was spent casually in her card.
Hua Guoqiang didn't pay attention. He also leaned on the railing and puffed away.
"Gu Yun accumulated this kind of wealth in his early twenties, won't it snowball in the future?"
Hua Guoqiang was beating a drum in his heart.
Originally, he only had a preliminary understanding of Gu Yun's business. Even though Dou Le attended the Spring Festival Gala, everyone knew that the price of sponsoring the Spring Festival Gala was probably sky-high.
There are many companies with high business valuations, and working capital is king!
It wasn't until Gu Yun easily got the money into his hands that Hua Guoqiang felt unreal for the first time.
What kind of money-making monster is my son-in-law?
At his level and position, he actually has some business friends with a lot of money.
But these people have red flags at home and colorful flags fluttering outside.
Listening to their usual bragging, it was quite interesting at the time, but when it was his turn, Hua Guoqiang felt a little bit pressured.
Even Hua Guoqiang, who has met countless people, is not sure how many girls should fall for him.
Although my daughter is excellent, the two people who came to the house today are not bad at all no matter from any point of view.
"Hey~"
Hua Guoqiang took a long breath and thought that he would just let nature take its course.
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
Children and grandchildren are blessed with their own children and grandchildren. The great Qiangzi’s crisis public relations deeds are still vivid in our minds. A middle-aged man is so attractive. What about the younger and more outstanding Gu Yun?
Zhang Tiantian's textbook-like handling method not only impressed the audience, but also revealed the tip of the iceberg of the life of the rich and powerful.
If Gu Yun encounters a similar turmoil, whether he is acting on the occasion or falling in love with someone else, how should he, as the father of his daughter, deal with it?
If Gu Yun is really outside with colorful flags waving, is it really a good choice to let his daughter leave him?
When wealth and status reach this level, should we still be restrained by ordinary people's moral ethics?
The selfless Star City judge felt confused for the first time.
