Lin Xibei was instantly infuriated after hearing this, "Do you still have the nerve to say that? Why don't you compare yourself to your cousin Lin Yi? He not only has a wife now but has also fathered three kids! He hasn't even finished university, and he's already settled most of life's major events—I'm so jealous! I'm not even asking for three grandchildren, I'm not that demanding, just one will do!
Just one!"
"Your uncle brags about his three children in our family group chat every day, and they are so adorable! Each little one is more heart-lting than the last. Then look at you, not taking life seriously, you don't even have a girlfriend, how can I not be mad?" Discover exclusive tales at m,v--
Lin Jie answered reluctantly, "That's not the point, Dad. Is this sothing that can be solved by being anxious? Girlfriends aren't sothing you can find just because you want one!"
Seeing his son argue back, Lin Xibei beca even more irritated, "You rascal, I can't be bothered with all that. Whatever it takes, you have to bring soone back. If all else fails, go on a blind date! You ought to have a child no matter what! As long as you do the job, I don't mind raising the child!"
Lin Jie shrugged and said, "Dad, dating takes ti, too! Even if I want to have kids, the woman has to be willing, right? The cost of dating is high nowadays, just going out for a date costs a lot! Let do the math for you; don't you have to hand out a red envelope during the holidays? For birthdays, at least a handbag as a gift, right?
Occasionally giving a ring or sothing is pretty standard, not to ntion the money spent on dates, it's already tens of thousands gone."
"So when you calculate it, out of the seventeen or eighteen thousand yuan I get for living expenses each month, I use a part to pay rent, then for als and necessities, there's not much left! It's also not quite enough for buying little things for soone, and although you might raise the child, I still have to support my wife! Surprises certainly can't be left out, Dad.
Tis have changed; today's girls are different from those of your ti, what they value most is romance. At the minimum, a trip every year, and who knows, maybe even going abroad in the future!"
After listening, Lin Xibei clenched his teeth and steeled his heart, finally saying, "Fine! I'll give you fifty thousand yuan a month for living expenses! But you only have six months. If you don't manage to find a girlfriend within half a year, don't bla for being unfriendly!"
Lin Jie was astonished by his dad's generosity!
Alright, he had never been this generous before! Fifty thousand yuan a month for living expenses!
What did that an?
Any video ga console he liked, he could buy on a whim, every kind of AAA title he could purchase without a second thought! Just the thought of it was exciting!
All thanks to my dear cousin!
As for a girlfriend or sothing, worst case scenario, after half a year, I can just find any girl, trick my dad, maybe I can even prolong these good days for a few more months. In the end, I can just say we broke up!
In just a mont, Lin Jie had completely figured out his dad!
Lin Yi's father and the second uncle both started from scratch, and although Lin Xibei's business wasn't as big as his brother's, it was worth tens of millions at the least.
And since he had only this one precious son, he could afford the fifty thousand a month for living expenses.
Knowing his dad's thoughts, Lin Jie started to sche, thinking about ways to coax so money out of his father to refresh his life.
Han Xuewei hadn't received any ssages from Qin Xiaoxu recently and couldn't help feeling worried. After all, she had been too busy these days, having no ti to chat with her bestie.
Thinking of this, she took out her phone and asked, "Xiaoxu, what have you been busy with these days? It's been so long since we chatted."
Qin Xiaoxu replied instantly, "Vivi, my dear sister! I've been occupied with making a living! I don't have the good fortune of being accompanied by a husband every day and not worrying about life. Entering society is really difficult! Without working hard, one could starve to death!"
Seeing the complaint-filled ssage from her friend, Han Xue almost burst out laughing, "Why didn't you stay at ho and help out? I rember your family runs a business."
Qin Xiaoxu quickly replied, "I wanted to go back too, but my dad wouldn't let ! He insists that I gain so social experience for a few years, and I also don't want to rely on my family. I hope to have my own career! But reality is too harsh, it's so difficult to work out here!"
Qin Xiaoxu and Han Xuewei were from the sa departnt, majoring in art. However, Qin Xiaoxu also minored in graphic design during her free ti, so her current job was related to design.
Qin Xiaoxu continued to complain, "You don't know how psychotic our company's manager is; we aren't even allowed to look at our phones during work hours. We have to put everyone's phones at the front desk when clocking in, and we can't get them back until we clock out. I can't even reply to other people's ssages, let alone watch a video when going to the toilet!"
"I'm really frustrated right now; I don't want to stay even for a day! But when I think about saving more than ten thousand yuan a month, I tell myself I have to endure!"
"My workplace is near Qianda, and I've rented a place nearby, too. The rent in this area is so expensive, a tiny apartnt of less than 50 square ters costs four thousand five hundred yuan a month!"
Han Xuewei quietly watched her best friend continue to grumble. When she saw the word "Qianda," her eyes lit up, and she followed up with, "Wait, did you say you work at Qianda?"
Qin Xiaoxu responded, "Yes, at Qianda, why?"
Han Xuewei then rembered that she hadn't been to the beauty salon for postnatal care for several days and thought it would be a good ti to visit her friend and also get so beauty treatnts.
"Are you off work now? Do you have ti? I'll take you to get a beauty treatnt."
The mont she hit send, she received Qin Xiaoxu's enthusiastic reply: "Yes, yes, yes! I'm free now!"
"Once I start work, I have no ti. I've been feeling so tired these few days. I only get four days off a month, sotis I even have to work overti!"
"I've been close to collapsing these past days, I just sleep once I get ho! I don't do anything else, I don't even have the energy to binge-watch, my skin is getting worse! Every day, I'm so tired!"
"Can that skincare place do massages? I just want a massage right now, and it would be great if they could also realign so bones!"
Han Xuewei smiled and quickly replied, "They have everything there, any treatnt you want!"
Qin Xiaoxu: "Great, then I will wait for you at Qianda, let know when you arrive!"
Han Xuewei: "Alright, I will get there within an hour, let's et at half past one."
Qin Xiaoxu: "Babe! How about we have dinner out today? It's not easy to have a day off, let's enjoy a big al!"
Han Xuewei actually planned to have lunch after eting with her friend, especially since Lin Yi had ordered nutritious als for her.
