wo hundred twenty thousand. We will pay it back together later.""Yian, when we get married, I'll sell your parents' little house and we'll buy a big one. My parents live in the countryside and it's ti..."Two hundred and six..." Shen Yian felt like he had been hit on the head, unable to speak.
"My mother should have told you that she did business in her younger years. She's quite clever and made some investments, this is one of them. It was originally intended to be given to the daughter-in-law."
"No, that won't do. This is too valuable. I'll return it to you when I get home from work."
Shen Yian and Song Lin are roommates. She wouldn't dare to take a gift worth millions from others.
"Why" Song Lin hesitated.
Since he understood Shen Yian's living environment and knew she really needed money, it was normal for her to yearn for it.
Now he's giving her up, but he doesn't understand.
"Mr. Song, this is what Mother left for her daughter-in-law," Shen Yian said solemnly.
Aren't you
Song Lin finished speaking, her breath becoming ragged. She accidentally blurted out.
Shen Yi'an blushed, her cheeks inexplicably warming. Between breaths, she heard Song Lin's slightly erratic breathing.
He can be nervous too.
Does he know what he's saying
Shen Yi'an pursed his lips and said softly, "Where would I put it I don't even have a safe."
Song Lin couldn't help but smile: "You didn't deny it."
"I'm busy, gotta go."
Song Lin called out to her, "There's a safe in the study."
"Oh."
Shen Yian quickly hung up the phone, touched his flushed cheeks, and calmed down for a while before returning to his office.
Colleagues gathered around.
"Yi'an, your husband is so rich"
"No, my mother-in-law bought it by making money from investments earlier. Let me wear it for a bit."
Shen Yian really didn't want to be rumored that Song Lin was a rich second generation, so it's better to make things clear sooner.
Auntie Mo had been here before, her every move exuded refinement. She was in business earlier and knew a thing or two about collectibles.
But a mother-in-law is a mother-in-law, and a daughter-in-law is a daughter-in-law. Everyone knows their place.
On hearing that, everyone's curiosity was immediately somewhat diminished.
"Well, that's fine. I've never worn anything this expensive in my life."
"Ya'an, can you show us"
Shen Yian wanted to refuse, but seeing everyone's determined expressions, he could only nod his head.
"OK."
Fortunately, everyone knows it's precious and doesn't dare to touch it, they just took a look and dispersed.
Shen Yian quickly stuffed the box into his bag.
Xu Manman didn't come back until noon, and no one knew what she was doing.
Wang Ruoqi took a call and left during her lunch break.
Shen Yian took out his lunch and ate it, then fell asleep. But thinking about the valuable thing in his bag, he could only hug it secretly in his arms as he slept.
In a daze, her phone buzzed. Looking at the number, her sleepiness vanished completely, replaced by a hint of surprise.
"Auntie What's wrong"
"Yi An, I'm downstairs at your company. I can't reach Man Man by phone. She's closest to you, could you help me find her"
The one speaking is Xu Manman's mother.
Shen Yian had dined at Xu Manman's house before, and Xu's mother was especially kind to her. Later, when her mother fell ill, Xu's mother kept calling to inquire about her well-being.
So Shen Yian quickly got up and went downstairs, seeing Xu's mother standing in the hall a little at a loss.
"Auntie."
"Yian, you're finally here. Can you tell me, what's going on with Manman lately Why did she borrow so much money outside" Xu's mother choked back tears.
"Loan some money"uld it be that her tone was too harsh“That...hurry up and eat, or the noodles will get soggy.”Song Lin thought for a moment, lowered his eyes and picked up his chopsticks. Before eating, he said solem...
