Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 217: Chapter 217: About to Strike It Rich

Although in this lifetime, Zhu Dexi didn’t save Qian, without the insights from the previous life, she wouldn’t have her present character. Her ability to counterattack all the way to getting a doctorate and becoming a super psychology expert is directly related to this person. Even though she was reborn, her character and expertise carried over; ultimately, she needs to repay the kindness.

Unexpectedly, the benefactor turned out to be Xiaoqiang’s friend, and the two even worked at the same company. The world is truly small.

Thinking about Yu Xiaoqiang’s reaction just now, was he sulking with her?

Qian couldn’t figure out why he was upset; maybe he was unhappy seeing her with Zheng Xu?

As for who wrote the other wish note, Qian felt it could be ignored. The benefactor has been found; similar handwriting is not a big deal.

Knowing who saved her, there will be opportunities to repay him in the future, so there’s no rush.

Just as Qian stepped into the small courtyard, she felt the home’s atmosphere wasn’t quite right.

”Qian’er, you’re finally back, come quickly!” Jia Xiufang came up without a word, grabbed Qian’s hand, and led her upstairs, while directing Chen Zilong.

”Dalong, watch the door and don’t let anyone in. Just stand guard downstairs.”

Once upstairs in Qian’s room, Jia Xiufang locked the door, and seeing her mom being so secretive, Qian couldn’t help but ask.

”Mom, what are you up to? Did you join some evil organization?”

”Get lost! Don’t joke around with your mom. I’m telling you something big.” Jia Xiufang’s face was full of worry.

”Okay, go ahead.”

”Our family is going to be relocated.” Jia Xiufang had just returned from a meeting, feeling utterly bewildered. She was fretting when Qian returned.

”Oh, let it move.” Qian had long been mentally prepared and wasn’t surprised.

”I’m not joking with you, this time it’s real! After the New Year, the house will be demolished; we’ve signed the papers, and they’ll send us 50,000 bucks settlement fee this afternoon. For the demolished house, we’ll get over 200 square meters in exchange, plus 60,000 bucks per person, our family of three, and the extra room, all will be cashed out. Qian’er, what do we do!”

Jia Xiufang was now stunned.

They’d talked about demolishing it for ages, several years without action, and today they suddenly called everyone for a meeting and directly signed papers.

The last time Qian came back to eat her favorite noodles, she had someone build an extra layer on top of the extra room without Jia Xiufang’s consent. Jia Xiufang even blamed her daughter for making her own decisions, not knowing that just a few months later, it’d become real money.

Suddenly, they became affluent; it was too abrupt. Several properties, plus the relocation money, made them rich quickly.

”These are all good things, what’s there to be tangled about? Seeing your expression, I thought something happened at home.”

Currently, housing prices aren’t too high, but in the future, Q City’s housing prices will be among the top in the domestic growth rankings. Though it’s a small place, the prices will rival those in first-tier cities. A house over 200 square meters means several million.

”Child, why aren’t you surprised at all! I didn’t even dare tell your brother, afraid he’d go blabbing around...” Jia Xiufang’s mind was numb after the signing.

Having lived a life of hardship for half a lifetime, suddenly having money was a happiness that caught one off guard.

”This matter indeed can’t be known to Dalong. When the money comes, don’t keep cash, buy real estate entirely, I’ll tell you where to buy.”

”I plan to save an equal share for you and your brother for when you marry and your brother takes a wife, the money will be needed. Shall we save it as a term deposit?”

”No, bank interest is too slow. Listen to me, do what I say.” Qian said with certainty.

Seeing Jia Xiufang still hesitant, she continued to persuade.

”Yu Minglang’s older brother is Yu Mingli, a real estate businessman in our city. Wherever he develops, we buy old houses there. We get insider information and profit from the properties, including buying storefronts from him, which are cheaper than outside.”

”Isn’t his brother a restaurateur?!” Jia Xiufang was greatly surprised.

”He cooks both food and land. Following him is definitely right. Just boldly invest in real estate, buy lots of storefronts, save several, you can earn tens of thousands each year just from rent for the rest of your life.”

Jia Xiufang was still in shock about her future son-in-law’s brother being a super unscrupulous businessman. ”No wonder Minglang can drive good cars, buy houses, and start a company at such a young age... right, their names are quite similar.”

”It has nothing to do with his brother; that’s all his own doing. Yu Xiaoqiang, despite everything, is a double master’s graduate; if he had no economic sense, would I even consider him?”

Yu Minglang definitely does not participate in his brother’s investments. Although the brotherly relationship is strong, they inherited entirely different companies within the group, specializing in different areas. Yu Minglang’s side is relatively more troublesome, but he refused his brother’s help, relying entirely on himself.

Yu Mingli is a line Qian will not let go of. No need for anything else, wherever the eldest develops land, she’ll have her mom buy property there – definitely a sure bet.

”Our house can exchange for 200 square meters. Qian’er, should we get two larger ones or three smaller ones? I was thinking one set each for you and your brother, just not sure if I should live with him...”

”Mom, I’m your daughter, would you give me one too?” These matters didn’t exist in the previous life.

After the previous life’s relocation, Jia Xiufang was kicked out by Chen Lin, who seized all the money and properties. Originally saying he’d give a set to Chen Zilong, but Qu Xue later got pregnant and had a son, Chen Zilong was driven out, and as a second-generation rich, ended up as Qian’s driver.

”I’ve thought it through, sons and daughters alike are my children. Your grandma revered sons but has me as the daughter for elderly care! Now after divorcing your dad, and taking care of you two myself, looking at your brother’s ways, I’m not sure if he can support me in the future. You’re a stable child, marrying a man like Yu Minglang, I feel reassured, just concerned about not bringing anything over, making talks weak in marriage.”

If it weren’t for Qian’s extremely firm stance on her divorce, Jia Xiufang would still be living in Chen Lin’s shadow. After the divorce, it felt like she was reborn, every day was fulfilling, and now having money, naturally wants things to be fairer.

”But there’s one thing, Qian’er, don’t blame mom for being biased. Your brother is a boy after all, he’ll need money to marry in the future. I plan to save up more for your brother, each of you getting one property, is that alright?” Jia Xiufang cautiously discussed with Qian.

But she found her daughter was shedding tears.

”Qian’er, don’t cry, mom doesn’t think you’re bad, just considering the time I’ll probably spend more living with your brother and afraid the daughter-in-law won’t understand...” Jia Xiufang hadn’t even finished, she was hugged by Qian.

”No worries, mom, you don’t need to give me anything, I can earn it myself.” Qian didn’t want her mother to see her tears; she didn’t expect to cry over such a small matter.

These properties and money didn’t matter to her, but what touched her was that her mother finally had her in her heart.
