Looking at the once high-spirited young man, he has now become an ordinary person who works from 9 to 6, with his wife and children on the hot bed. His body has gained weight and his beer belly is clearly visible.
"Brother, women are like this. You already earn more than many people. Now you still do housework and can cook. Listen to me, let's change to a better one. If you have money, are you afraid that you can't find a good woman? "Gu Yu looked like I was doing it for you. Li He just raised his wine glass and wanted to clink it and froze in place.
"That...that's not the case. I can't find anything better, and others don't like it. Besides, we only quarrel occasionally, but we are usually fine. Look at me, there is nothing about me that is not her." Bought it? Besides, brother, you only want to date your woman because you have money. What kind of good woman is she? You have to pay attention to her in the future." Without Gu Yu's further persuasion, Li He knew it in his heart.
"Haha, that's right. It's not normal for a couple to bicker occasionally in their daily lives. I envy you because you have someone beside you who knows the truth and warmth every day." Gu Yu no longer looked like he was sympathetic and excited before, he raised his glass and spoke to Li He touched one.
"What a shame, you're pretending, it's quite the same. I just thought you were really persuading me to divorce, but I was still muttering in my heart. It turns out you're not like that either." Li He breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip of beer to calm down his shock.
"Aren't you good at acting? I have a little money now, and I still want to enter the entertainment industry to act, film dramas, and find a female star to be my wife." Gu Yu smiled at first, and then looked serious again.
Li He on the opposite side was a little unsure whether Gu Yu was joking or if he really had this intention.
"At our age, why do we still want to enter the entertainment industry? Besides, if you are a female celebrity, you don't have to worry about them treating you as an honest person." Li He still advised.
"What you said makes sense, then let me change my dream. I decided to start practicing football today, form an amateur team, and strive to win the Chinese Super League professional team within four years." Gu Yu's expression became relaxed again.
"You're kidding me again, but there's a high chance that this second dream will come true." Li He shook his head helplessly.
The two of them drank wine and chatted with each other, talking about their current lives and reminiscing about their youthful days as students.
"At that time, I was interested in everything except studying. I just wanted to graduate quickly and go to a random university. I thought I would be free." Li He said with a little regret.
"Yeah, I was so stupid at that time to want to grow up quickly." Gu Yu also sighed a little. The two clinked another glass and drank it down in one gulp.
"By the way, looking at your circle of friends, you have moved to Wanda Mansion. Have you sold your original house?"
"No, keep it."
"Why should we keep it? The market is not good now. House prices will not rise as much as in the past ten years."
"I didn't have any money, so I pooled my family's efforts and bought my dream house with river view in Zhongjia Village. It's 80 square meters, two rooms, and a 57-story building. Excluding the public stall, how much more is there? I work hard every day, and I don't dare to get sick. I don't dare to I have to take leave and have to commute an hour and a half to get off work. I don’t dare to change jobs because I have to pay my mortgage on time every month. At this age, I have no family and no career. If I have to ask my family to pay for the mortgage, then I How bad are you doing?" Listening to Gu Yu's words, Li He couldn't help but empathize, and the atmosphere became a little heavier. Although he had an average career, he didn't have children for the time being after getting married. The couple were both only children, and the two families They also spent money to help the young couple settle down in Jiangcheng, so the mortgage loan pressure was not too big. They also bought a mobility scooter worth about 200,000 yuan. When they were young, they were better off than before, but they really didn't dare to have children.
"Now that I have a little money, I can keep that house and live in it with my dignity!"
"Then your dignity is really not small."
"It's only gotten bigger recently." Gu Yu and Li He looked at each other and smiled. Money is a man's courage.
"Actually, the market is still not good, but I think that in two or three years, when the economy has passed the stagnation period, houses in good locations in Jiangcheng will still be valuable. If they are sold at that time, they will be worth it." The two of them were eating like this. While drinking and chatting, the night gradually got darker.
Li He's cell phone rang. It was his wife's call. Seeing the smile on Li He's lips, he knew that the two had reconciled.
"Your wife asked you when you will come home?"
"Haha, I'm scared to be alone at home."
"Okay, let's have a good meal and drink. Let's go back to our respective homes." Gu Yu said and stood up, asked the boss to pay the bill, and fought with Li He for a while, but he couldn't take it. The other party's buttocks were really plump. Pushed Gu Yu aside.
Gu Yu smiled and shook his head, then clicked on the driver's app on his phone and found a driver for each of them.
"Next time you lend me your car to drive, I will also experience what it feels like to drive a car worth millions." Li He walked around Gu Yu's car, admiring it inside and out, feeling envious said.
"Then it's necessary. Tell me when you get home."
"You too." When Gu Yu returned home, he thought about the past few days. His house had become bigger, he bought a nice car, and he no longer had to work, but he didn't know why, but he felt a little empty.
Gu Yu wanted to do something, but at this age it was too early to wait for death. The next day, Gu Yu contacted Chen Xi, his aunt in the capital. Chen Xi is the daughter of Gu Yu's grandmother's biological sister. In fact, she is a bit far away from her relatives, but she has a very good relationship with Gu Yu. She was raised by his mother when she was a child. , there has always been contact.
After graduating from Renmin University, she joined Goldman Sachs and worked as the investment director of Goldman Sachs China. Later, she started her own business, bought a house in the capital, and settled down. Her home was in Haisheng Mingyuan, Dongzhimen. Gu Yu also searched for house prices, and it was 130,000 yuan. Ping, at that time, it made Gu Yu shake his head. He had never been married, and he was still living alone when he was almost forty. Before the epidemic, Gu Yu even went to Beijing with his mother to play with his aunt for a week.
"Xiaoyu, you haven't chatted with my aunt for a while." On the other side of the phone, Chen Xi said softly with a smile.
Gu Yu's mother's hometown is in Jiangsu Province, and most people there speak softly and softly.
"It's not that I'm not doing well, so I'm embarrassed to find my aunt." Gu Yu replied a little embarrassed.
Gu Yu's accent is a fusion of the north and the south, and he had a roommate who was from the Northeast.
"You kid, whether you are doing well or not, I will always be your aunt." Chen Xi's tone was a little more serious.
"Yes, yes, you are right. I suddenly realized recently that I have to call you now, and I decided to increase the frequency of calling you to the level of my mother." Gu Yu first apologized, and then A joke was made.
"Gee, that's okay. I'm no better than your mother. I'm retired and have time. I'll wait for your call every day." The two chatted for a while, and then Gu Yu brought the topic to venture capital.
"In the past two years, the economy has been sluggish and the market environment has not been good. Many investors are afraid to invest in projects easily. We used to say that one or two out of ten projects can guarantee a profit, but now it is difficult to save even one out of fifty. If you If you are interested, you can first go to a few salons or venture capital cocktail parties to learn more about it and don't rush to invest in projects." Chen Xi helped Gu Yu arrange tickets for several cocktail parties and salons, and also allowed him time to go to the capital. Find her.
