Chapter 1880: How many times have you guaranteed it?
After continuing to chat with Huang Li for a while, she had to be busy, so I said goodbye to her.
When I got home, An Lan was still reading in the living room.
She really likes reading, and she is reading every time I come back at night, and I have become accustomed to it.
After seeing me coming back, she put down the book in her hand and called me: "Chen Feng, come here."
Her expression was very serious. During this time, I had been feeling a little guilty, fearing that she would discover my secret.
With an uneasy heart, I walked up to her and asked cautiously: "What, what's wrong?"
"You sit down first." She patted the sofa and said.
Her behavior made me feel even more frightened. I sat down on the sofa with great anxiety, and my heartbeat began to speed up.
Suddenly, she picked up a children's drawing board from the shelf under the coffee table, handed it to me and said, "What do you think this is?"
"Isn't this just a drawing board used by children? What's wrong?"
"Open the drawing board and take a look."
I took it and opened the drawing board and saw a very beautiful small box inside.
"What is this?" I asked An Lan again.
"Open it and take a look."
I opened the small box inside again, and when I saw it, it turned out to be a rose gold bracelet, inlaid with diamonds.
"What...what's going on?" I asked again doubtfully.
"You ask me, why should I ask you?"
I was very puzzled and said: "I don't know!"
An Lan then said: "Xiaoman came back from school today and she had this sketchpad in her hand. I asked her where it came from. She told me that the classmate who scratched her face gave it to her, saying it was to apologize to her."
When An Lan said this, I understood that it must have been specially arranged by his parents.
I put down the drawing board, smiled bitterly, and said to An Lan: "Then I know what's going on. This child's name is Zhu Chenxi, and his father's name is Zhu Zhiyuan, who is the boss of Zhiyuan Building Materials Company... I went to the kindergarten this morning to solve Xiaoman's matter.
, I met him, guess what?"
An Lan looked at me with confusion.
I continued to tell everything that happened when I went to the kindergarten this morning, including Zhu Zhiyuan giving me money later.
After An Lan heard this, he frowned and said, "Why is there such a thing?"
I smiled and said, "In China, this kind of thing is quite normal. This is what everyone likes to do when treating guests or giving gifts."
"But we can't accept this money!"
"It can't be accepted, so I clearly rejected him this morning. I didn't expect this guy to actually reach out to Xiaoman."
"Then what should I do? How can I return this thing?"
I stared at the bracelet in the small square box, pondered for a moment and said, "I definitely have to return it, but is this bracelet worth anything?"
An Lan nodded and said: "This bracelet is a genuine product from Cartier. I checked it on Cartier's official website. The official price is 56,000 yuan."
"Damn it, is it so expensive?"
"Yes! If we collect this thing, we won't be able to explain it clearly."
I took a long breath and said, "Put it away first. I'll take it directly and return it to him tomorrow."
"Um."
I said to An Lan again: "By the way, tell Xiaoman tomorrow morning that no matter who gives her a gift in the future, tell her not to accept it."
After a pause, I sighed and said: "There will definitely be a lot of people coming to bribe me recently. The construction work in the clothing city is about to start. Once the news gets out, many people will want to come.
Take a piece of the pie.”
An Lan nodded, and then asked me: "By the way, what did you do tonight? Did you eat?"
Only then did I remember that I hadn't even eaten dinner yet. Because of Chen Miao's incident, I went directly to the nightclub after work.
I curled my lips to An Lan and said, "I haven't eaten yet."
"Why are you going? You haven't eaten at this late hour. You know you have a bad stomach and you don't eat on time. How could you promise me?"
After she complained, she stood up and said to me: "I'll heat up your dinner. You can sit down for a while."
"Thank you, wife." I mumbled.
An Lan looked back at me and said to me commandingly: "If you don't eat on time like this, I will ignore you."
"Make sure you eat on time."
"Promise, promise, how many times have you given me your promise?"
"This time for sure."
After An Lan helped me heat up the food, he brought it to me and sat next to me and watched me eat.
"Would you like some more?"
"If you don't eat it, you'll get fat if you eat it again."
"It's better to be fatter. Look how thin I am now."
An Lan glanced at me and said, "You still know that you have lost weight now! Then why don't you eat well?"
"I will really eat on time from now on, so don't be angry, okay?"
"You say this every time, but you still don't eat well. How can you expect me to believe you?"
"It's true this time. Even if I'm busy with work, I'll eat some bread or something in advance, I promise!"
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the house."
"What's the matter?"
"Should we buy a house?"
"Buy it, I admit it."
"Then do you have any ideas? For example, where can I buy it? How big is it? At what price?"
"Just buy a villa." I said boldly.
"Let me tell you seriously, when the two children grow up, they will definitely have to sleep in separate rooms. Plus we have a nanny at home, and I will definitely not have enough room for these two or three."
"So when I said buy a villa, I meant it."
"Do you have that much money?"
"You said last time that you sold the house in Chengdu. I thought about it and thought it was okay. After all, we don't live there anymore, so if it's empty, it's empty."
An Lan asked with confusion: "Don't you always disagree with selling the house in Chengdu? Even when our company was in such difficulty, you didn't plan to sell it. What do you think now?"
At that time, I really didn’t want to sell because it was not yet time to sell the house, and my illness had not been diagnosed as terminal at that time.
The company's operating situation is quite difficult, but what I want is that even if it fails, we will at least still have a family.
But the situation is different now. I have also been diagnosed with not much time to live, and the company is relatively stable, so there is no need to keep the house.
But of course I didn't tell An Lan directly about these things.
I just smiled and said to her: "Because now the company is stable in all aspects, and it was unstable at that time. If something unexpected happens, we at least have a place to live."
An Lan also smiled, and then asked me: "Do you have a favorite villa area?"
"Don't mention it. A few days ago, I heard Gu Ming say that there is a newly built villa area near Jiangzhou Bend that is pretty good and has river view rooms, but the price is a bit expensive."
"How much for a square meter?"
"They sell it as a whole set, and the price is based on the chosen unit type and area, as well as the decoration."
An Lan nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then let's go see it another day."
"Okay, you make the decision."
"You are the head of the family, you make the decision."
I smiled, reached out and pinched her face, which was full of collagen, and said: "There is no such thing as the head of the family in our family. You can just take care of these things. I will listen to you."
"
An Lan nodded and stopped talking about this issue. When she saw that I had finished eating a bowl of rice, she went to serve me another bowl.
In fact, I couldn't eat any more. I had to bite the bullet and eat this bowl of rice.
But I didn't want to make her unhappy, so I had to continue eating until I felt like vomiting.
