Chapter 1180: Chapter 1182
Gong Ruini looked at the notes she had written in her hand and the rough sketches she had drawn, "Which one do you think is good."
Initially, Gong Ruini was thinking it would be best to have a small villa with yards in the front and back, but in New York City Center, they wouldn’t have a chance to buy such a house.
Even if there were, there would be various problems. Gong Ruini helplessly chose to buy an apartment.
"The apartments that are appealing are definitely expensive."
"The apartments that aren’t appealing are cheap." Gong Ruini exclaimed in surprise.
She knew houses in New York were very expensive, but she hadn’t expected them to be this outrageously priced, it was truly eye-opening.
"Buy the expensive one," Zhao Xuran made the decision for the house they would purchase.
Oh my god, rich people! If it weren’t spending her own money, Gong Ruini would definitely cling to Zhao Xuran’s leg and beg for adoption.
The trouble is this money involves her too, she’s absolutely reluctant, "Shouldn’t we reconsider?"
"Reconsider what? Do you like it?" Zhao Xuran truly hadn’t considered continuing to think about it.
Like it? Of course she likes it, standing inside, you can see Columbia University and Central Park, the environment is utterly unbeatable.
"That terrace is so big, I love it."
"I think the bathtub on the master bedroom terrace is nice, it’s a whirlpool tub." Dai Liren found it truly eye-opening, he had never thought an apartment could be arranged like that.
"The bright large floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, and there’s a BBQ area on the outside terrace, when the sun is out on weekends, you can sit there, drink coffee, chat, and read a book." The more Gong Ruini thought about it, the more beautiful she felt it was.
If it was in later times, she would definitely take out her phone and take lots of photos to post on social media and receive tons of likes.
"And the kitchen even has a Chinese kitchen," this was the aspect Gong Ruini was most satisfied with.
After visiting so many places, this was the only property with two kitchens, one for Chinese cuisine and one for Western, apparently related to the previous owner being Chinese.
Even Westerners who like Chinese food wouldn’t usually set up a Chinese kitchen at home.
Of course, there’s also a big dressing room. Even if she might not fill it completely, just imagining it is stunning.
Zhao Xuran was most satisfied with the large bathtub outside the master bedroom, it could definitely fit two people, and by then they could soak in it, drink some red wine, and naturally do some things couples do, the taste of which Zhao Xuran only thought could be described as wonderful.
Anticipation, ah anticipation, "Then let’s buy it."
"But the money," Gong Ruini wasn’t actually opposed to buying this apartment too much, after all, whether she rents it out or sells it in the future, she’ll definitely earn a lot.
"No rush with the money," Zhao Xuran wouldn’t mention that before he went abroad, his dad secretly called him over and said he had a big surprise for him.
No rush, the audacity of saying that! Buying a house needs money, how could he be not in a hurry?
"My dad said it’s a gift for our wedding." Originally, Zhao Xuran didn’t want to mention it, but his wife kept asking, leaving him with no choice but to reveal the truth.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, rich people! Dai Liren was stunned, he thought of many ways of getting money for the house, but never expected it to come from Zhao Gang.
Doing business is truly this profitable, wow, Dai Liren had growing confidence in his career.
Dai Liren didn’t want to stay here, if he continued listening to their chat, he couldn’t suppress the urge to beat them up, how could the treatment be so different between sons?
Oh my god! Gong Ruini was also stunned by Zhao Gang’s generosity, knowing he was wealthy, but didn’t expect him to be so generous.
Gong Ruini couldn’t help but fret, "What about Guang Ran and them later on?" Fairness is important, or else big problems could arise between brothers.
"They will all have it, but it depends on whether the wives they choose satisfy our parents." Zhao Xuran wouldn’t stand by and watch his father make a mistake.
Whether the chosen wives satisfy Zhao Gang and his wife, this sounded particularly targeting Zhao Guangran, among the four sons of the Zhao Family, only Zhao Guangran was relatively headstrong, prone to making such mistakes.
"I think Dad shouldn’t worry, I think Guang Ran can earn the money for the house himself." Zhao Xuran asked when he saw Dai Liren stepping out.
"Do you think Guang Ran not finding a girlfriend means he hasn’t forgotten Cao Na?" Seemingly having quite a bit of contact with Cao Na, they originally did have feelings for each other, what if Cao Na changes her mind?
Forget Cao Na? It’s not that easy to forget, after all, she accompanied Zhao Guangran through his entire adolescence, but solely for Cao Na, it’s not possible.
"I mentioned Cao Na to him, he didn’t seem overly emotional, and he mentioned girls in the United States, he just hasn’t found the ideal one." This explanation Zhao Xuran wasn’t willing to accept, if Zhao Guangran sincerely wanted to deceive Gong Ruini, it wouldn’t be difficult at all.
"We’ll see when the time comes, anyway, it’s his choice; but if he wants to find a foreign wife, at least she should speak Chinese." Although his parents knew a bit of English, fluent communication would be a major issue.
In this world, there aren’t in-laws who would learn a foreign language just to accommodate their daughter-in-law when they’re older.
Speaking Chinese, this is quite challenging. Foreigners rarely learn this, they find English as a script, all sorts of difficulties, but for foreigners, being asked to speak Chinese is completely another level of trouble.
"If they truly love Zhao Guangran, it’s not a difficult task." Isn’t it said that out of love, people can unleash unprecedented potential?
Even if it’s true love, there still aren’t many that do so, this guy surely doesn’t know that in foreigners’ eyes, marriage is a matter between two people, even if they consider a thing or two for each other, being able to greet fluently is quite good, you simply can’t demand too much.
"Ah, would Guangran explode if he finds out we went to look at houses?"
"You didn’t tell him?" Zhao Xuran was astounded; with such a great opportunity, wouldn’t his wife notify Zhao Guangran?
How could she say it? This was Zhao Family’s internal affair, Gong Ruini looked at Zhao Xuran puzzled.
Well, both of them were about to cry, they really hadn’t notified Zhao Guangran, what now?
Neither of them wanted to step forward and notify Zhao Guangran, they could imagine his explosive reaction.
"Why don’t you say something?" At crucial moments, Gong Ruini unceremoniously pushed Zhao Xuran out, he was Guang Ran’s brother.
No matter how unhappy Zhao Guangran was internally, he wouldn’t be so disrespectful to him.
Zhao Xuran was unwilling to face Zhao Guangran, before he could be harsh, he stood on the right side; now he was definitely at fault.
Gong Ruini didn’t care about these things, at crucial moments it required the men to step up.
