Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 396: Chapter 370: He Really Deserves It

Qian really didn’t expect it, she miscalculated.

Yu Xiaoqiang was able to rescue Qian from the mountain within hours and discover the secret signals she left by the roadside, but the little secret sign she left in her wallet, he just didn’t notice it for several days!

Yu Minglang’s vacation was limited, he had to focus on work when her school started, so it was down to the last two days. He squeezed in time to be with Qian, because once he went back, it wouldn’t be easy to meet.

It just so happened that Qian’s family was demolishing their house, so he came over to help Qian move Jia Xiufang’s house, and also to check out the workers Jia Xiufang hired.

Jia Xiufang got two commercial properties, neither was large, but the locations were good. This was on Qian’s advice, what Qian didn’t expect was that when Jia Xiufang signed the relocation agreement, she directly put one of the 40-square-meter small shops under Qian’s name, considering it a betrothal gift from her family to Qian.

The other shop was put under Jia Xiufang’s name, and it was agreed that when Chen Zilong grew up, it would be transferred to him as a living. She had inherited a three-bedroom apartment from her grandmother, the area originally wasn’t enough, but Jia Xiufang topped it up with the relocation money.

Qian originally thought a smaller house, a two-bedroom would be enough, and the remaining money could be pocket money for Jia Xiufang.

But Jia Xiufang was very resolute, she insisted on a three-bedroom. When the daughter was married off, when she returned home, there should always be a place for Qian at home.

Qian now had a housing unit in her name, a new Bora car, savings of over two hundred thousand in cash, and a shop unit. Yu Minglang was instantly overshadowed by her, Qian clearly became a little rich lady.

Qian wasn’t surprised that her in-laws dared to give her such great financial authority. Given how much Mrs. Yu and Mr. Yu liked her, it would be strange if they didn’t. They dared to give to Qian, and they’d dare to take back. Being engaged, there was no need to be coy about it.

Yu Minglang was also happy to be a hands-off manager, the money from their wedding banquet was all given to Qian. He didn’t even ask, only when Qian told him that some money would be used to invest in funds and stocks, Yu Minglang pointed out a few to Qian, asking her to buy those.

He didn’t have a personal ID or couldn’t open an account, so these matters were left to Qian. Although Qian had a vague memory of the stock market from her past life, she was okay at long-term investments, but for specific operations, she couldn’t be so precise, so short-term still needed to heed Yu Minglang.

Yu Minglang analyzed the market trends for her, Qian grasped it immediately, followed his recommendations for phased investments, bought some stocks, some funds, and kept over ten thousand prepared to invest in some physical assets when the time was right.

She didn’t hide these things from him, the money was with her, but on what it was spent, she would still inform Yu Minglang, to hear his opinion.

Although Yu Minglang was often at work, he had unique insights in this area. Previously, it was the restrictions of his status that prevented him from dabbling in these things. Now with Qian, he could just give her some pointers. Qian felt if she didn’t do psychology anymore, she could definitely get rich as a securities analyst under Xiaoqiang’s guidance.

Now she knew, her elder brother sometimes had to negotiate major investments with Yu Minglang. No wonder Yu Minglang dared to buy houses openly and at a low price from his brother, the value he created for his brother was more than just a few houses.

The Yu family always had better information than outsiders, grasped the fundamentals accurately, and with Yu Minglang and Mr. Yu’s talents in this regard, it was hard not to make money. Previously, Yu Minglang didn’t dabble because his material desires weren’t high, plus all his energy was focused on training at the old unit, so he didn’t have much opportunity to spend money. Earning some pocket money was enough, but now he had a fiancée and his own company, he wanted to give Qian a good environment. Qian was eager to improve; he would just chip in a few tips.

The two discussed everything together, with open hearts, and no one guarded against the other. The engagement banquet from the Yu family saw gifts totaling over a million. If the uncles had given more, plus the second brother’s personal gift, it would just reach 2 million, all given to Qian, and this was all within normal social courtesies without inviting outsiders. If Mr. Yu was a bit more socially adept, they could have received more.

Though Mr. Yu valued family tradition and frugality, many of the Yu family relatives were in business and naturally couldn’t give too little. These were unavoidable, as they were often given reciprocally; it was all normal interactions.

Qian didn’t dare let Jia Xiufang know about this. Her mother wasn’t used to such things, even a little thing could easily scare her. Telling her everything would merely add to her anxiety. It was better to quietly accumulate some wealth and then be filial to her mother when they got money.

Jia Xiufang only knew that the in-laws were low-profile and wouldn’t accept gifts from outsiders. Little did she imagine that relatives would offer such big favors. Qian didn’t tell her to spare her worries.

However, Jia Xiufang did know about Mrs. Yu giving Qian a house and Mr. Yu giving Qian a car. Initially, she felt uneasy, a bit insecure.

Fortunately, Yu Minglang frequently visited her home and helped with all sorts of chores, even assisting with the demolition of their house without any airs of a rich young master. Only then did Jia Xiufang feel more reassured.

Since the wedding banquet, Yu Minglang had been busy with things for Qian’s family. The house demolition was no trouble; a bulldozer handled it in a morning, but he also had to help Jia Xiufang find a new place to open a store.

Before their new home was built after relocation, Jia Xiufang needed to rent a place for a while. She originally didn’t want to give up her dry cleaning business living, but Qian had already arranged work collecting demolition materials for her, leaving her needing to sell off the dry cleaning equipment. Before their new home was ready, they rented a place not far from Dalong’s school.

Qian initially wanted to lend her the house Mrs. Yu gave her for her mother to live in, but Jia Xiufang refused, saying it was too far from Chen Zilong’s school and that it wasn’t appropriate to occupy the engagement gift from Qian’s in-laws with her family. Even when Yu Minglang invited Jia Xiufang and Chen Zilong to stay temporarily in his duplex, Jia Xiufang declined, citing the distance to school.

On the day of the family’s house demolition, Jia Xiufang watched her old home of many years being torn down, standing by the side, wiping tears. Many neighbors cried too; they had longed for this demolition for so long, now it happened, and there was an unspeakable sorrow standing there now. Every brick and tile was personally handled, and now it was being bulldozed, and a new life was about to begin.

Qian didn’t share Jia Xiufang’s sentimental feelings. She knew life would get better each day after the demolition, and this old house harbored too many unpleasant memories with her mother. There was nothing to regret in it being torn down.

What she was conflicted about now was the man who had been busily helping her family.

Dear, the secret in the wallet, haven’t you discovered it yet? You deserve to keep bleeding, just keep on bleeding!
