Seeing this message from someone claiming to be a media company agent, Xu Boan didn't take it seriously.
First of all, it is unrealistic for Chen Shishi to join the entertainment industry, at least for the time being.
Secondly, who knows whether this is true or not? What if it was just a random joke by a netizen?
Xu Bo'an didn't have time to distinguish between authenticity and authenticity.
Therefore, after watching the barrage of comments section for a while, Xu Boan stopped paying attention.
After calling his mother Tang Rongzhi and learning that his parents were still shopping in the Wanda Plaza mall, Xu Boan strolled into the mall.
The first floor of Wanda Mall is mostly filled with jewelry stores and clothing stores.
The largest store among them is a sales department in the middle of the ring.
Wanda·Central Courtyard Customer Experience Center.
When Xu Boan bought the villa before, he bought it here.
As soon as Xu Bo'an entered through the mall gate, he inevitably saw this place.
Glancing at it, I happened to see sales manager Tang Xiaorou pointing at the sand table to introduce the house to customers.
Inadvertently seeing Xu Bo'an passing by, Tang Xiaorou smiled very politely at Xu Bo'an as a greeting.
Xu Bo'an had a good impression of Tang Xiaorou. He nodded with a smile and left.
When Xu Boan found his parents, his mother Tang Rongzhi was looking at the new clothes she was wearing in front of the fitting mirror. Chen Pingping was diligently helping Tang Rongzhi with suggestions.
It can be seen that Tang Rongzhi is smiling, obviously very satisfied with this.
My father, Xu Jiancheng, was sitting boredly on the sofa nearby. There was a shoe box next to him, and he was wearing the popular new Foot Lijian shoes at his feet.
Xu Jiancheng looked extremely uncomfortable sitting there, looking left and right, as if he was not used to such an environment.
Seeing Xu Bo'an coming, Xu Jiancheng hurriedly came up to him as if he was seeing a savior.
"Bo'an, you're finally here. Your mother and the others are really energetic. It's been almost two hours and it's not enough!"
Xu Bo'an suddenly thought of his past. Every time he went shopping to buy clothes, he always looked for a seat as soon as he entered the store.
Sure enough, for men, shopping is a very painful thing.
Xu Bo'an smiled and comforted his father and said, "Dad, my mother finally went to the shopping mall in the city. Please stay with her for a while."
Xu Jiancheng sighed and said, "Oh, it turns out that we were all planning to go back today. Your mother changed her mind when she heard that Xiao Chen wanted to go shopping with her. This is a big deal!"
Xu Bo'an said hurriedly: "Don't leave in a hurry. You guys have also seen it. This house is big. Why are you leaving in a hurry? Staying here for a while will give me a chance to fulfill my filial piety."
Xu Jiancheng rolled his eyes at Xu Boan and said, "You kid, where do you want to live? This house doesn't belong to you, does it?"
Xu Bo'an was stunned for a moment and said doubtfully: "Ah? What are you talking about, Dad!"
Xu Jiancheng looked like "I don't know you yet" and said softly: "You kid, you really think that your mother and I are old fools. Your mother and I have known each other before. This villa costs more than 10 million. !
How long have you been at work? Even if you have a lot of income, you can't afford such an expensive villa, right? What's more, it's only been a few days since the divorce, so half of the money has to be divided, right? "
Xu Bo'an didn't expect his father to suddenly mention this, and subconsciously explained: "Dad, I know you and mom are worried about me, but don't worry. In fact, my salary is more than you think, and we are mainly engaged in engineering. I get project dividends, bonuses, etc. This house is really mine."
Xu Jiancheng patted his son on the shoulder and said: "Bo'an, of course I know you have some money, otherwise when your cousin got married two days ago, you wouldn't have been so generous and spent so much money. Without blinking an eye. But if you want to say that this house is yours, do you have a real estate certificate?"
Xu Bo'an curled his lips. He really didn't have such a thing. He had only bought the house a few days ago. The procedures with the developer and the bank had not been completed yet, and the real estate certificate had not yet been issued.
"Dad, I have a house purchase contract! If you don't believe it, I'll go back and show it to you." Xu Bo'an said confidently.
Xu Jiancheng waved his hands and said: "Let's not mention this. Your mother and I have discussed it. If our house is demolished, we should pay more for the demolition money. It doesn't matter whether we want a small house or not. You can use it. It’s up to you whether you want to spend the money to buy a house or invest in a business, since your mother and I don’t have much to spend money on anyway.”
Xu Bo'an said hurriedly: "No, Dad, I don't want your money. And I'm really not short of money now."
Xu Jiancheng patted his son on the shoulder and said: "Bo'an, I know you want to be strong since you were a child, but as a father, I don't have much ability, so I haven't been able to help you. Finally, I have such an opportunity, and I still I can’t help you feel proud for once!”
Xu Bo'an was confused again and asked: "Ah? What do you mean by this? Dad, why can't I understand something?"
Xu Jiancheng looked like he had come before and said, "You're still pretending to be with me, right? That guy, Xiao Chen, is nice and willing to spend money on you, but we are men, so we can't just eat soft food with peace of mind!"
"What? Eat soft rice!" Xu Bo'an suddenly felt that he understood something.
Xu Jiancheng said softly: "You kid, you still don't admit it, do you? Your mother and I only knew that Xiao Chen sells clothes. We thought it was a small shop on the street. Who knew it was such a big store? I'm doing business in a shopping mall. I'm afraid the storefront probably costs millions."
Xu Bo'an nodded and said truthfully: "Ah, yes, it's several million."
"You kid, have you finally exposed your secrets now?" Xu Jiancheng looked as if he was like this.
"No, why did I reveal my secret?" Xu Bo'an smiled bitterly.
Xu Jiancheng laughed and said, "That villa belongs to Xiao Chen, right?"
Xu Bo'an smiled helplessly: "Dad? Why do you think so!"
Xu Jiancheng said confidently: "Haha, you have forgotten what your father and I used to do, a member of the village joint defense team. I can't find any clues like this? Let's just say that in the villa, there are various household functions, small When it comes to where the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are placed, Xiao Chen knows everything and understands everything.
What about you? It took me a long time to find the chopsticks during the meal! Besides, Xiao Chen doesn't do such a big business every day. He is busy with us three meals a day, takes us out to play, and takes your mother and I to the mall to buy clothes. To put it bluntly, this is not all Because people like you. "
Xu Bo'an smiled and joked: "Dad, why didn't I realize before that you have quite a rich imagination!"
Xu Jiancheng pretended to be angry and said: "Don't do this! Aren't you just embarrassed to eat soft food? Think about it, what age are we in, happiness is the most important, just live a good life.
And your mother and I both think that Xiao Chen is a pretty good and reliable person. When the demolition money for our family comes down, you can discuss how to invest. Xiao Chen's business is big, so you should ask for Xiao Chen's opinion. "
Xu Boan suddenly understood why those sales groups selling health products such as health tea and foot soaking powder would target the elderly.
Unmentioned, the elderly are really easy to fool.
If you can easily trust someone.
Chen Pingping had only spent a few days with her parents, and she had completely figured out their parents' mentality.
But Xu Bo'an was quite happy, at least this proved that his money was really not wasted, and Chen Pingping really entertained his parents.
Xu Bo'an still wanted to explain, but his mother Tang Rongzhi shouted at the side: "Bo'an, don't tell me when you come. Come and help mom see which of these two clothes looks better."
Tang Rongzhi originally lived a very poor life. In Xu Bo'an's memory, her mother rarely bought clothes.
It was not until my family's conditions improved that I was willing to go to the market to buy some fabrics and make new clothes myself.
Later, Xu Bo'an's income was acceptable after working, so Tang Rongzhi was finally willing to go to People's Mall to buy new clothes during the Chinese New Year.
"Mom, these two pieces are beautiful, why don't we buy them together." For today's Xu Bo'an, let alone two pieces of clothes, he would buy two houses without blinking an eye.
"Nonsense, you are such a brat and a prodigal. Pingping, you have to help Auntie take care of him. Don't let him be too free."
Yes, it seems that parents have almost reached a consensus on their behavior of eating soft food.
Chen Pingping covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Auntie, look, I just said that you look good in both of them. It's rare to come here for shopping, so just buy them both. I have a gold card membership here. You can even get a 10% discount!”
Xu Jiancheng reached out and touched Xu Bo'an's arm, and said softly: "How much money does Xiao Chen have? Why do so many stores have her as a member?"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said: "Dad, you are overthinking. Chen Pingping opened a shop here and became the boss. Isn't it normal for the bosses to exchange membership cards for each other?"
Xu Jiancheng nodded as if he understood, and said: "I just saw the sign posted at the door recruiting security guards. It said that security guards can pay more than 3,000 a month. What do you think if I ask Xiao Chen to help me? Ask, can I work as a security guard here?”
Xu Bo'an said with laughter and tears: "Dad, if you really have nothing to do, why come here to work as a security guard? It's too tiring. Working as a security guard in our company is much more comfortable than here."
Xu Jiancheng shook his head and said: "What's the use of being comfortable? The main thing is to make money."
Xu Bo'an asked: "Our family will soon become rich in demolition, what are you still thinking about making this little money for?"
Xu Jiancheng shook his head and said, "The land that is being demolished belongs to your grandparents and their family. To put it bluntly, it belongs to your mother and their family. I look like a freeloader."
"I don't want to eat soft rice even if you are an old man." Xu Bo'an looked at his old father with some resentment.
Xu Jiancheng said: "Stop talking nonsense, didn't I prepare a way out for myself in advance?"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said: "Okay dad, I will help you solve this fallback. I will take you to my company in a while, and let you see what our company's security work is like."
While the two were chatting, Chen Pingping had already coaxed and grabbed the clerk on the side to wrap up Tang Rongzhi's old clothes and pay for the new ones.
"Xiao Chen, this is not possible. How can I keep asking you to pay?"
Chen Pingping smiled: "Auntie, don't be polite to me. Bo'an has already helped me a lot. This little thing is nothing, it's a pity that you in my store don't like it, otherwise I would give you one a day. Wear different ones."
Tang Rongzhi smiled and walked with Chen Pingping in front while chatting.
Xu Boan and his father Xu Jiancheng were walking behind, introducing his father to the surrounding shops from time to time.
After walking around, they followed Tang Rongzhi, Chen Pingping and others into a clothing store. Suddenly, a greeting sounded from the store.
"Mr. Xu!"
Xu Boan looked for his voice and saw Liu Quan and a woman standing side by side in the clothing store, not knowing what they were discussing.
Not to mention Liu Quan's image, he is as greasy as ever.
But the woman next to him is in good condition.
The woman is about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a brown skirt, her hair spread over her shoulders is neatly combed, her complexion is fair and delicate, and her temperament looks very good.
This outfit should be even better if paired with high heels.
But probably to take care of the height difference between her and Liu Quan, the woman only wore a pair of shallow flat shoes.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Xu." Seeing Xu Bo'an looking over, Liu Quan hurriedly came out to greet him.
Xu Bo'an didn't even ask about such nutritious topics as why you were here shopping even though it was a working day.
When a company starts to strictly control attendance, it means that the company is not far from bankruptcy.
Especially construction companies.
What's more, Liu Quan is still one of his own.
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "It's quite a coincidence. My parents happened to be here and I went shopping with them."
Liu Quan hurriedly cast warm eyes at Tang Rongzhi and Xu Jiancheng. With a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand first and said, "Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Mr. Xu's subordinate. You can just call me Xiao Liu'er."
Xu Bo'an smiled and introduced: "Dad, my colleague."
Xu Jiancheng and Tang Rongzhi also smiled and greeted Liu Quan. When Liu Quan focused his attention on Chen Pingping, Chen Pingping introduced herself calmly: "I am Mr. Xu's friend, hello."
"Hello!"
After that, Liu Quan didn't look at Chen Pingping again, and focused his attention on Tang Rongzhi again, saying, "Auntie, this is our own store. If you like anything, you can pick whatever you like."
Xu Bo'an was quite surprised and said: "Did you drive it?"
Liu Quan chuckled, pointed to the woman next to him and said, "No, my wife was not in good health after she became pregnant, so she never went to work. Later, she opened this store in partnership with her sister, which can be considered a living. If you do it, you won’t be so bored staying at home all the time.”
The woman smiled slightly and nodded to Xu Bo'an, but said nothing.
A trace of discomfort flashed across Liu Quan's face, and he said softly: "After giving birth to the child, my wife suffered from postpartum syndrome and became depressed. Although she is better now, she still doesn't like to communicate with others, so I often take the time to come and visit."
Xu Boan nodded slightly. Although his memory was a little fuzzy, he remembered that when Liu Quan got married, he chose a good-looking girl from the same batch of new employees who entered the company for training.
When I heard Liu Quan mention it at this time, my memories instantly overlapped and it was the woman in front of me.
At this moment, he actually envied Liu Quan and his wife for their love, which was romantic and could withstand the storm.
A few people were chatting here, and suddenly, noisy sounds came from outside.
"Wow, there's a big star coming downstairs! Go and have a look."
"She is looking at houses at the Central Villa Sales Department. Even big stars want to buy houses here."
"I'll go, it's true, someone is live broadcasting on Kuaiyin, and it's her! All the sons in my dormitory are her fans, I have to summon her quickly."
"Oh my god, it's so beautiful and stylish."
