"Is your elder brother coming over?"
Su Mingyu nodded with a complicated expression. Li Jie was indeed right before, and the eldest brother would not give up easily. In fact, the reason why she agreed to Li Jie's proposal was not because she had forgiven Su Mingcheng in her heart.
It's because she doesn't want to disappoint Li Jie. He has done so much for her and thinks of himself in everything. Maybe she should try to ease the relationship with her family? Not for anything else, just to live up to the people around me.
She will never forget what Su Mingcheng did before, and her mother Zhao Meilan's words deeply hurt her heart. Maybe she will let go in the future, but it will never be now.
"He and I are dating. We are on the way to Richmond now. They should turn around. He and I made an appointment to meet at the Richmond Center."
The four met in a large shopping mall. Su Mingzhe looked very happy with a smile on his face, because he believed that Su Mingyu's attitude softened because of his persuasion.
"Mingyu, let's go. Your sister-in-law and I will accompany you to pick out a gift for your second brother."
On the way back just now, Wu Fei had advised Su Mingzhe that Mingyu might not be able to leave. It was not what Su Mingzhe thought. Now Su Mingzhe was focused on choosing gifts, so he let Mingyu accompany him. The thought of going back.
He knows how difficult it is to get a full scholarship. If he had received a full scholarship, his family would not have to sell a house for him to study. Although his sister's boyfriend is rich, it is his money after all.
Seeing that her elder brother was so enthusiastic and couldn't bear to reveal the truth, Su Mingyu smiled helplessly.
"Okay, it just so happens that we don't have much experience. This time we have to trouble my eldest brother and sister-in-law."
Su Mingzhe laughed and waved his hand: "No trouble, no trouble. You are still a student and don't have much money. The gift doesn't need to be too expensive. It's better to be practical. How about buying him a watch? The price here is cheaper than in China. Some."
Su Mingyu glanced at Li Jie without any trace. Li Jie shrugged and told her to decide for herself. It didn't matter what she gave. Su Mingcheng had nothing to do with him. If the other party didn't know how to show appreciation, Li Jie wouldn't mind giving him some colourseesee.
A person like Su Mingcheng is a typical example of a man who dominates the family. He is the king and the hegemon at home, but when he goes out, he is like a lamb to be slaughtered. His character development has a lot to do with Zhao Meilan's doting.
Zhao Meilan holds the power of life and death in the family, and Su Mingcheng, who has the support of his mother, is not afraid of other people at all. Su Mingyu has no status at all in the Su family, so she naturally becomes the target of Su Mingcheng's bullying.
Seeing Su Mingyu's embarrassed expression, Su Mingzhe thought she had misunderstood, so he immediately smoothed things over and raised the watch on his hand.
"It's really not expensive. The Longines I have is only a few hundred dollars. Longines is a big brand. Giving it away is decent and not expensive. If you are tight on money, I can give you some."
Su Mingyu quickly shook her head: "No, I still have a few hundred dollars, so I'll pay for it. By the way, brother, how much are you planning to pack in the red envelope?"
Su Mingzhe glanced at Wu Fei. He didn't know much about these things, and his wife usually took care of them. Wu Fei stood up and spoke at the right time.
"We are going to pay 5,000 yuan. Do you think it's appropriate, Mingyu?"
Li Jie stepped forward, took Su Mingyu's hand, and squeezed it tightly.
"Sister Fei, I think it's okay, or let's just leave it at that."
Wu Fei nodded. Red envelopes come and go, no matter how big or small they are. She and Su Mingzhe's wedding date has also been set. They are planning to hold their wedding in the United States because there is no wedding leave in the United States.
Their current visas are still work visas. If American international students want to get a green card after graduation, they must either marry an American, get a green card quickly as an outstanding talent, or immigrate through investment.
However, these three methods are not suitable for the couple. Both of them are Chinese students studying abroad. They are not outstanding talents, let alone rich. They cannot afford the money for investment immigration and can only obtain green cards through employment. .
This approach is also the choice of most international students. It is commonly known as professional immigration. Not every company will apply for a green card for you. For example, the company Wu Fei works for is not willing to apply for her.
Su Mingzhe finally found a company that was willing to apply for a green card for him. He didn't dare to take a vacation at will. This time he used his annual leave to return to China. In fact, they were originally planning to return to China to get married.
But a phone call from Su's mother disrupted all their plans. Wu Fei was actually a little angry about this matter. Many relatives and friends would not come to talk about the wedding in America.
Wu Fei even had a quarrel with Su Mingzhe over this matter, but Su Mingzhe's attitude was very firm. He thought that if he, the eldest son of Su, did not go back, what would others think? Would he not have a home after leaving the country?
In the end, Wu Fei was convinced. Su Mingzhe promised her that she would hold another wedding in China in the future, so Wu Fei stopped insisting.
While Su Mingzhe and his wife were walking in front, Li Jie whispered in Su Mingyu's ear.
"Mingyu, I'll pay for the share. We are a family. You can give me the gift and I can pay for it. It's reasonable."
The three words 'family' suddenly hit the softest part of Su Mingyu's heart. She blushed and spat softly.
"Bah, who is your family?"
After saying that, he took small steps and ran forward, shouting as he ran.
"Brother, wait for me!"
Li Jie looked at Su Mingyu's background and smiled, "How can you still escape my grasp?"
By the time Li Jie caught up with her, Su Mingyu's expression had returned to calm, but her eyes when she looked at Li Jie were even gentler, as if they could drip water.
The four of them wandered around the watch area of the mall. The prices here were indeed cheaper than in China, generally only about 63% off the domestic prices. Finally, on Su Mingzhe’s suggestion, they chose an entry-level model from Longines, which was not expensive at 600. The knife was less than a point, and Su Mingyu could afford it.
With the unexpected arrival of Su Mingzhe and his wife, it was obvious that Li Jie and his wife could no longer go to their world. Near noon, the four of them found a Sichuan restaurant near Chinatown.
This restaurant is very popular, and many Americans eat here. Unfortunately, in order to cater to local tastes, chefs have changed many flavors and lost the essence of Chinese food.
During the meal, the phone in Li Jie's arms suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. This number was newly registered by Li Jie when he came to the United States. Not many people knew about it. Li Jie thought about it and guessed who sent it.
"Hello, are you Dong Shi, the founder of snapchat?"
Li Jie hummed softly, and the person on the other end of the phone continued.
"I am David Li, an investor in SVAngel. I am very optimistic about your company. I would like to talk to you about investment. I wonder when Mr. Shi will be free?"
