She shouted towards the living room, "Xiao Bei, do you want oolong tea or Tieguanyin?"
"Do you have cola?" Lu Jinbei asked without looking up.
Cai Jingyao paused in the midst of boiling the porcelain teacup. She frowned. "You know my job. It's impossible for me to have drinks with high carbs at home. But if you want to drink it, I can order takeout for you!"
"Forget it, I'll just drink Tieguanyin!" Lu Jinbei said nonchalantly.
Cai Jingyao brewed tea for Lu Jinbei and brought it out. She walked to sit opposite Lu Jinbei and gently placed the teacup by Lu Jinbei's leg. "Xiao Bei, put your leg down!"
Lu Jinbei obediently retracted his leg, but his gaze was still fixed on the phone screen in his hand.
Cai Jingyao frowned slightly. "Xiao Bei, look, you've fallen out with your family because of me. How are we going to get married? Especially since Uncle's health isn't good to begin with. How sad would Uncle be if you acted like this? Brother Jinnan really didn't say anything in the kitchen today! It's just that my reputation wasn't good back then, so Brother Jinnan was afraid that I would hurt you! I can understand his harsh words, but it's all for you … "
"You don't have to explain on his behalf. Even if nothing happened between you and him today, I still feel uncomfortable. I've wanted to fall out with him for a long time!"
Lu Jinbei's heart ached at the thought of Lu Jinnan acting all high and mighty for his own good.
The brother he respected the most was with the woman he liked. How could he not feel sad?
"But Uncle … Uncle's health isn't good. Seeing you two brothers fall out because of me, Uncle will definitely feel uncomfortable when he sees me in the future! It'll be hard for me to be his daughter-in-law. Why don't you call Uncle and apologize to him? Even if your relationship with Brother Jinnan can slowly ease up in the future, okay? "
Lu Jinbei pursed his lips and didn't say a word. The sound of the game restarting came from his phone. Lu Jinbei didn't say a word and started another round.
Cai Jingyao frowned and tried to persuade him again. "It'll be hard for me to be like this. Because of me, your family will fall out with each other! I'll become the bad guy! "
Lu Jinbei then put away his phone and looked at Cai Jingyao solemnly. "Ever since Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian got married, our families have been at odds with each other on the surface. It's not because of you. Don't think too much into it!"
"Then, what about the future? Are you really going to cut off all contact with your uncle?! "
"I'll call my dad later. Don't worry!" Lu Jinbei started to tell Cai Jingyao about his plans. "It's just that we might have to postpone our marriage for the time being. I'm working at a gaming company now and can get 23,000 yuan a month. Although I have a house under my name, Lu Jinnan bought it for me. I don't want to live in it after we get married. I plan to buy the house and return the money to Lu Jinnan!"
Cai Jingyao didn't say anything.
"All these years, my family didn't let me spend much money, but I've always been a spendthrift! That's why I didn't save much money. I have about five or six hundred thousand yuan on hand. We can make a down payment and buy a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms. I will work hard to pay off the mortgage! When the house is settled, we'll get married, and I'll put your name on it! Okay?! "
Lu Jinbei's words were very responsible and responsible!
He wasn't like those men who rushed to buy a house before marriage because they wanted to turn the house into property before marriage. This way, even if something went wrong and they got divorced in the future, the house would still be theirs. He even made his woman pay off the mortgage with him for so many years.
Cai Jingyao's hands on her knees tightened slightly, and she smiled at Lu Jinbei. "I'll listen to you!"
Cai Jingyao hadn't planned on getting her marriage certificate with Lu Jinbei right now. She didn't want it to turn into a second marriage. That would be too scary.
"Okay, then it's settled. We'll go look at houses during this period of time. For the time being, we can only stay at your place. If it's not convenient for you, I'll rent a house …"
"What are you talking about!" Cai Jingyao anxiously interrupted Lu Jinbei. "We're going to be a couple soon. What's not convenient about it? It's a three-bedroom house, and it's so big. I'm afraid of living alone! I can't be happier to have you by my side! Moreover, this house was left to me by my parents. It's my own house. We can stay here after we get married! We don't have to work so hard to buy a house! "
Lu Jinbei looked at Cai Jingyao with a smile in his eyes. He reached out to hold Cai Jingyao's hand, inevitably feeling touched …
"While I'm staying here, I'll pay for all our living expenses. We must buy a house!" Lu Jinbei squeezed Cai Jingyao's hand tightly. "How can a man not bear the moral responsibility of buying a house and a car after marriage? Instead, he's staying at a girl's house. This isn't appropriate. Believe me, this is only temporary! We'll definitely get better! "
Cai Jingyao had to admit that the current Lu Jinbei was much more mature than when he was in school!
However, perhaps it was because Lu Jinnan had protected her too well.
Did he really think that it was so easy to bear a man's responsibility?
Lu Jinbei's monthly salary wasn't even enough to buy her skincare products for a month. He didn't even have to buy clothes, nails, or hair, not to mention a bag!
How many months of salary would Lu Jinbei have to save up to afford a bag in her cloakroom?
What a joke. If she were to be with such a man, her life would be over!
Although Cai Jingyao was a little touched, how much was that worth?
In this society where money ruled, having money was the way to go …
Cai Jingyao nodded and held Lu Jinbei's hand tightly. She looked very touched as she said, "I believe you! I trust you the most in the world! "
After comforting Lu Jinbei, Cai Jingyao frowned, thinking about how she could see Lu Jinnan again …
Did something happen to Lu Jinbei?
Cai Jingyao glanced sideways at Lu Jinbei, who had picked up his phone to play games again. Lu Jinbei was impulsive and impatient, and he often went to the police station in the past!
As long as Lu Jinbei went to the police station, Lu Jinnan would definitely appear.
There was a smile in Cai Jingyao's eyes. She asked Lu Jinbei, "You haven't had lunch since leaving Uncle's place. What do you want to eat? I'll order takeout for you … "
"Whatever! You can order whatever you want to eat! "Lu Jinbei's attention was completely focused on his game, so he casually replied.
Cai Jingyao called outside, then contacted a few of her college classmates who were more shameless. She said that she would treat everyone to a meal that night and asked them to come out for a gathering.
Those people were people who would definitely turn up if someone was treating them. When they heard that Cai Jingyao was treating them to a meal at Man Jiang Lou tonight, they immediately agreed.
