I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping-Chapter 2110 - 1357: Asking for Monthly Tickets!
"How did the discussion with Xiao Hong go? He’s about to graduate soon, it’s time to start planning."
High-level faculty dormitory allocated by Han City University.
Duan Zhongxin, the feudal governor of Han City Branch for Jiangcheng Jinhai, is rarely at home.
Although not a mansion or villa, sitting next to his virtuous wife and obedient daughter feels like the ultimate happiness.
Of course.
Duan Zhongxin isn’t unable to afford luxury homes, he just has different pursuits. Known for transitioning from a university professor to the business sector, he’s undoubtedly different from ordinary entrepreneurs.
"Dad, just give me a little more time."
Duan Xueying is peeling an apple, very skillfully. Don’t underestimate this detail; peeling fruit seems simple, but most girls from average families nowadays probably couldn’t do it.
What does it mean to not have endured hardships.
It’s okay to live in a "lesser" house, but one can always hire more maids.
"Have you not done the mental preparation yet? Is Xiao Hong really that stubborn?"
Mother Pang Lijuan chimed in.
It seems the parents agree with their daughter’s relationship; breaking apart lovebirds is not a scene in every wealthy family.
"He said he’s worried about embarrassing me and Dad."
As Duan Xueying spoke, she cut the peeled apple into pieces, put them on a plate, and inserted toothpicks—how surprising it is for a prestigious young lady to do such manual work.
Pang Lijuan chuckled, "This kid, why does he think so much? Embarrass whom? Let’s see who dares to talk behind our backs."
For his wife’s obviously self-serving claim, Duan Zhongxin, who lives a very simple life—or relatively simple—didn’t criticize.
He was the first to propose that Hong Xiaoyu join Jinhai.
As the top leader of Jiangcheng Jinhai, what’s wrong with helping his daughter’s boyfriend find a way in?
He used to be a professor and still holds a title at Han City University, but he’s not rigid.
Using power within limits isn’t a disgrace.
Tutors also help their students.
If you have power, why help outsiders instead of your family?
"He must be worried that joining Jinhai would ruin Dad’s reputation."
Duan Xueying put the fruit plate in front of her parents.
"If Xiao Hong thinks that way, he’s underestimating your dad. Your dad may not like the flashy side of business, but he isn’t inflexible. Otherwise, Mom wouldn’t have married him in the first place. Helping Xiao Hong is helping his daughter, isn’t that just natural?"
Duan Zhongxin listened with a smile, his demeanor elegant, indeed not fitting the traditional image of a businessman.
"Why not invite Xiao Hong over one day; Mom can talk to him herself if you can’t persuade him."
"Mom, doing that will only add pressure on him. Even if he agrees to join Jinhai, he’d be carrying a heavy burden, not happy."
Pang Lijuan saw sense in her daughter’s words and sighed, "Xiao Hong is still somewhat naive."
Saying this, she inexplicably laughed again.
"But it’s also a good trait."
"What does his brother say?"
After chatting for a while, Duan Zhongxin spoke leisurely and picked up a piece of apple peeled by his daughter.
Duan Xueying was surprised: "How did Dad know?"
"Do you think that just because you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t know? If you really wanted to keep it from me, you should have picked a different place for dinner."
Duan Xueying was enlightened, then said, "I was just worried about making it hard for Dad." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
"His brother? You mean Jiang?"
Pang Lijuan understood: "Jiang came to River City?"
"Now he should be called Mr. Jiang."
Duan Zhongxin chuckled.
That young man once came to the house with the newly appointed group sect leader, and, looking back, it didn’t seem long ago, but everything has changed.
With a cane and grass shoes, lightly surpassing a horse, who’s afraid, a life embracing misty rain!
The calligraphy on the wall was written by him. That day, he wanted to give it to the young man, but it was their first meeting, so he said to take it after ten years.
Heh heh.
Why need ten years.
If it really takes that long, he’ll probably be unqualified to give it even if the other person wants it.
"Since he’s in River City, shouldn’t you entertain him?"
Pang Lijuan looked at her husband; although the Duan Family wasn’t a typical merchant family, it doesn’t mean they don’t understand etiquette.
"I’d like to entertain him, but it depends on whether he’s willing and if it’s appropriate."
"Dad, I think we should forget it. Sister Qianqian didn’t come this time, no need to overdo it."
"What do you mean overdo it? Aside from the connection with Miss Shi, you’re in a relationship with Xiao Hong; we mustn’t be rude."
Duan Xueying helplessly smiled: "Mom, it’s not that serious. Dating is a matter between two people, don’t complicate it."
Duan Xueying implied something, and Pang Lijuan surely understood, pondering silently.
"Our daughter is right, a couple’s relationship shouldn’t involve too many others."
Duan Zhongxin spoke.
"If you both feel it’s not a problem, then it’s not. As long as others don’t misunderstand."
"Brother Jiang Chen is not petty."
"By the way, what’s the deal between him and Miss Shi?"
Pang Lijuan probed her husband, but received the same response as always.
"I’m not sure."
"There are no outsiders, what’s unspeakable? Am I going to spread rumors?"
Pang Lijuan complained.
"I really don’t know. Would Director Shi report to me?"
Typical evasion.
Pang Lijuan rolled her eyes at her husband, "Forget it, you’re not cut out for business, more suited for intelligence work, your lips are sealed."
