Yan Luoxi's question made Xue Liping slightly tilt her chin. "Your Uncle Sun also has a company here, which is not small in scale; it deals with import and export trade. Your mother works as the vice president in his company."
Xue Liping was like most beautiful women who never contented herself with an ordinary life predetermined by fate.
When she first set her sights on the successful businessman Sun Zhijun, abandoning her husband and daughter to follow him, it was certainly not solely because of his tenderness and care for her. She aimed at the substantial wealth of the Sun family and their high social status.
Upon reaching the Sun family, although she did not openly vie for power, she still managed to gradually infiltrate the core of the Sun enterprise with her astute mind, superb social skills, and alluring demeanor. Gradually, she ascended to the position of vice president.
Mother was a person brimming with ambition; this Yan Luoxi remembered clearly. Her mother being the vice president of the Sun Trading Company did not surprise Yan Luoxi at all.
"Mother, is this property yours and Uncle Sun's joint possession" Recalling why she had to rent a house for Wei Rufan, Yan Luoxi finally circled back to the main topic.
When it came to this place, Xue Liping smiled oddly. "Even if it were ours jointly, there is something special about this property."
"Ah!" When Yan Luoxi heard her mother say this, she couldn't help but feel a chill run down her back. "What's wrong Is there something haunted in the house"
"You little brat, what are you talking about This house is very auspicious!" Schuyler Lipyung glared at Yan Luoxi with affectionate indulgence. "When I said it has a history, I meant that neither your Uncle Sun nor I earned this property ourselves; it was given to us by someone else. Your Uncle Sun has a daughter named Sun Liangliang who is an actress. Have you seen the show 'Great Tang Wayfarer' She played Feng Gu in it."
Yan Luoxi shook her head with embarrassment, smiling awkwardly: "I... I don’t have much time to watch TV dramas."
"Ah, even if you did, you wouldn't notice her anyway. She's not exactly a famous actress." Schuyler Lipyung rolled her eyes somewhat disdainfully before breaking into a pleased smile again. "But she must have hit the jackpot somehow because recently she’s met a wealthy second-generation boyfriend who is loaded with money. On his first visit to our home, he gifted us two apartments as a token of their acquaintance."
Schuyler Lipyung pointed at the room in front of her. "It's this place and another unit in the neighboring complex. Although they aren't big in size, both are well-located with good layout and managed by an excellent residential committee. This area is known for its outstanding cityscape views and convenient transportation."
Anyone who benefits will naturally feel happy about it; even today when Schuyler Lipyung had transformed from a shrew to an elegant lady, she couldn't hide her excitement.
"Rich people are really generous, isn’t having money great!" Yan Luoxi also felt that this was a very good thing and clicked her tongue in approval.
"Daughter, we shouldn’t be envious of such things. Nowadays, those wealthy young men prefer to play with minor celebrities at first; they are extravagantly generous initially, but once they get tired, you won't find them anywhere."
Xue Liping elegantly crossed her legs and looked at Yan Luoxi with approval, saying, "My daughter still has good taste. When choosing a boyfriend, she should choose someone like Zhou Guangtao—a handsome and intelligent young man..."
As soon as the name Zhou Guangtao came up, Xue Liping's expression changed abruptly. "Although Nanfang Precision is a new company, its recent deals have been very successful. Why are you renting an apartment Has there been any change in your relationship"
"No, we're doing fine!" Yan Luoxi giggled playfully. "I'm actually renting the place for one of my classmates. She's been a close friend since university and is moving from the capital to Guangtao's company as the public relations manager. I’m helping her find a place."
Xue Liping wasn't very concerned about the rental matter but was quite interested in this classmate who would be working at her daughter’s boyfriend’s company. She asked with shining eyes, "Is your classmate pretty"
"Of course! She's a hundred times prettier than me." Yan Luoxi always took pride in her close friend.
"How could you let such a beautiful woman work at Guangtao’s company!" Xue Liping looked exasperated, as if the sky was about to fall down.
"Why not" Yan Luoxi was confused by her mother's sudden outburst and gazed dumbly at her mom.
"You silly girl! A woman more beautiful than you working near your boyfriend—how can that be safe" Xue Liping, with her broad experience, knew all too well how many instances of romantic entanglements occurred in society. She couldn't help but worry for her daughter’s future.
"Mom, what are you saying Yufan is my best friend, and Guangtao is the boyfriend I trust most!" After understanding her mother's implication, Yan Luoxi immediately changed her expression. To her, such an idea was as abhorrent as incest; it insulted both her best friend and her boyfriend.
When Xue Liping saw that her daughter wasn't happy, she quickly dropped the topic. She had just met with her child, and their relationship hadn't yet stabilized. Maybe in her heart, she was still less important than her girlfriend, so for now, it wasn't appropriate to say bad things about these two most important people.
She didn't want to upset her daughter, so she wisely chose a topic that interested her: "If your good friend is coming over to stay, let her come. In this world, you are my only relative. My belongings will eventually be yours anyway; this house is also the same. Right now, half of it belongs to you."
"No way, I must pay rent for this place." Yan Luoxi frowned and emphasized, "If you don't want money, then I won't rent out a room here for my best friend."
“Luoxi, Mom has wronged you too much over the years. Even if I give up ten houses like this one, it wouldn’t make up for it all! What's so bad about letting your good friend stay in this house” Xue Liping felt heartbroken and guilty; Luoxi’s stubbornness was just like her late father.
“Mom, you owe me nothing. Bringing me into this world made you my benefactor. Even though you weren't around for the past few years, I lacked maternal love but gained other forms of affection in compensation. Therefore, if you want rent for this house, then I'll rent it out for my best friend; otherwise, I’ll find somewhere else.”
Yan Luoxi firmly declined her mother's attempts to make amends. She knew that her mother now felt guilty about living a comfortable life after all these years, but she had no obligation to compromise her principles in order to fulfill her mother's sense of regret.er.She walked up to her daughter and carefully observed Yan Luoxi, finally letting out a sigh of relief. "My daughter seems to be living well. She looks plump and rosy, much fatter than when she was i...
