Nowadays, not many people are willing to take out loans from banks, because borrowing is easy but repaying is hard, so Cheng Su and their process was completed rather quickly.
Both sides had loans, so to sign and collect the remittance, Cheng Su and Ning Ge went together.
"Why did you think of buying land in Guangcheng and not in Qing City?" After the procedures were completed, the two sat down in a café, Ning Ge asked Cheng Su.
Cheng Su took a sip of coffee and said, "Nothing special, because Guangcheng is more prosperous than Qing City."
"If thatâs the case, Beijing is even more prosperous!"
Cheng Su laughed and blurted out, "Indeed, the future of Beijing will surely be beyond reach!" The housing prices are sky-high.
Ning Ge looked at her aghast, the future?
Seeing his surprised expression, Cheng Su realized her slip of the tongue, coughed, and said, "It is the capital after all, itâs already compelling now, let alone in the future!"
"But you never thought of buying land in Beijing!" Ning Ge slightly smiled and said.
Cheng Su looked out the window and said, "I canât afford it, and besides, I donât feel a sense of belonging there!"
Guangcheng is different. She grew up there, naturally having a special attachment to it.
But Beijing, she never had the ambition, especially now with Chiang Qing there, sheâs even more unwilling, she still prefers the South a bit more.
Sense of belonging, Ning Ge murmured, "But you donât live there either, you live in Qing City, what sense of belonging are you talking about!"
"You wouldnât understand even if I told you, anyway, Iâve taken a fancy to it, thinking it can develop into a big city!" Cheng Su snorted.
Ning Ge shrugged.
Cheng Su finished her coffee and stood up, saying, "Letâs go!"
"Where to?" Ning Ge asked.
"Luh Kai is getting married, youâve received the invitation too, donât you need to buy a gift? Letâs go buy a gift!" Cheng Su said.
"Ah, well, isnât giving a red envelope enough, do you really need to choose something?" Ning Ge said, but still stood up with her.
The red envelope had to be given, but since it was private and Luh Kai had helped her before, Cheng Su thought of giving something meaningful.
She dragged Ning Ge to the gold shop and took a fancy to a pair of exquisite little smiling items.
"Such a generous gesture?" Ning Ge raised his eyebrows at her, "I didnât realize you were so generous!"
Cheng Suâs eyes remained fixed on the glass cabinet, "When you get married, Iâll give you an even bigger pair. So, hurry up and find someone!" She then pointed at a golden bracelet, asking the clerk to let her try it.
Ning Ge listened and felt slightly discomfort, said nothing.
Cheng Su didnât mind him, put on the chain with the help of the clerk, and asked Ning Ge, "How does it look?"
Ning Ge glanced and said, "Golden and flashy, whatâs so nice about it, quite vulgar, wear diamonds, they look good!"
Cheng Su rolled her eyes, took it off and handed it back to the clerk, saying, "Gold is valuable, it can be passed down to future generations!"
Ning Ge was just about to speak when suddenly a loud voice sounded not far behind them.
"I donât care, you have to buy me the ring today, otherwise I wonât be pleased." It was a womanâs voice.
Cheng Su didnât turn back, guessing it must be a woman pestering a man to buy her jewelry, she continued to look at the jewelry.
But the next moment, the manâs voice surprised her.
"Canât we buy it next time? I donât have that much money today."...
Turning around, Cheng Su saw not far behind, the humble and cautious man, wasnât he Elder Sisterâs ex-husband, Zhang Jisheng?
