103: You squat at the door at night

Xu Yi, filled with questions, went to Xu Jia's room.

"Sister, what's this about you and Brother Chen Qiu starting a business?"

Xu Jia was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her laptop on her lap, browsing information about shop operations.

She looked up at her sister and said calmly.

"What business? I'm just working for Chen Qiu."

"Then the bmw 5 series outside, and Mom said you brought 200,000 home..."

"The BMW was provided by the company, and the 200,000 was borrowed from Chen Qiu."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi's beautiful eyes widened instantly.

She stared blankly at her sister, and after a long while, she stammered out a sentence.

"Sister, what you said this afternoon, was it true?"

"Ah, what was true?"

Xu Jia was looking at the documents and didn't react immediately.

When she turned her head and saw her sister's gradually reddening pretty face, she suddenly remembered what she had said to her that afternoon.

"Oh, you mean being kept!"

Xu Jia looked up at her sister with a half-smile, listing examples on her fingers.

"What do you call a situation where two sisters live in a man's house, drive a man's car, and spend a man's money?"

"I didn't!"

Xu Yi immediately retorted, saying righteously.

"I live in the company dormitory, and I earn the company's salary..."

"Is that so? Then I'll enjoy this new house and new car all by myself."

Xu Jia dangled the community keys and the mercedes-benz keys, shaking them.

Xu Yi's breathing hitched, and then her heart rate suddenly accelerated.

"Chen, Brother Chen Qiu really prepared them for me too?"

Then, she looked at her sister with complex emotions, muttering.

"If I, if I live together too, will it affect you and Brother Chen Qiu...?"

In Xu Yi's opinion, her sister's words must have been a joke.

It was more likely that Xu Jia and Chen Qiu were together!

The two had always had a very good relationship, and now that they had reunited, Brother Chen Qiu was so outstanding. It wasn't strange for her sister to be with him.

In this way, the house, car, and 200,000 yuan would all make perfect sense.

It's just that Xu Yujie, who always talked about becoming the CEO's wife's best friend, could only end up as the CEO's sister-in-law's best friend... Xu Jia watched her sister's expression constantly change, realizing that this girl must have gotten the wrong idea.

"What are you thinking about!"

She got up and tapped Xu Yi on the head.

"Chen Qiu isn't living with us, it's just the two of us."

"I'm currently helping Chen Qiu manage real estate. These houses and cars are all under the company's name. Chen Qiu said we can use them temporarily."

"Ah, I see..."

Xu Yi patted her chest, and surprisingly felt a sense of relief.

Xu Jia looked at her sister's expression, momentarily puzzled, unable to tell if she was disappointed or happy.

"Chen Qiu should have other arrangements for you later, so you'll live with me after the New Year."

Xu Jia handed the keys to her sister, who hesitated a little when she took the mercedes-benz car keys.

"Won't the mercedes-benz be too flashy?"

"What are you afraid of? I even brought the BMW home!"

Xu Jia said calmly.

"Compared to being passive-aggressively criticized to your face, would flattery be even more jarring?"

Earlier, she had been a little uneasy, worried about rumors spreading and hearing inappropriate comments.

Who would have thought that she didn't need to explain much at all.

The BMW emblem and 200,000 cash had already spoken for her.

In just one hour, the compliments she heard exceeded all the praise she had received in an entire year.

Xu Jia didn't know what these people would say behind her back once they turned around.

But at least the flattery they piled on her with smiles on their faces, she enjoyed immensely!

Dinner that evening.

Even their father, Xu Changyao, rarely had a few drinks.

If it weren't for his wife, Lin Fang, stopping him, he would definitely have gotten drunk.

Xu Yi sent Xu Changyao back to his room to rest, and Xu Jia turned around to see Lin Fang sitting on the sofa, wiping away tears.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

Xu Jia sat down beside her, feeling a bit helpless.

"I can finally rest assured..."

Lin Fang wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, saying with a sigh of relief.

"Before, your dad and I were a burden to you two."

The woman said guiltily.

Two years ago, putting Xu Yi aside for now, her daughter Xu Jia was a highly sought-after girl in the surrounding villages and towns.

She was pretty, had a bachelor's degree, worked in a bank... Matchmakers came to their door every year!

But ever since Xu Changyao's accident, the situation changed instantly.

A father paralyzed on one side, a jobless mother, a sister still in college, and a lot of external debt... Under these family conditions, even though Xu Jia's personal qualifications were quite good, her reputation in the matchmaking market rapidly declined.

After all, no one knew how much more money they would have to pour into Xu Changyao later, so good families didn't dare to marry Xu Jia.

Later, the matchmakers who came to their door brought men from increasingly worse families.

Each of them had to bring up Xu Changyao's health to devalue her daughter.

Lin Fang and Xu Changyao watched helplessly as their daughter was dragged down by them, yet they were powerless.

Now that their daughter had made her own way, Lin Fang felt as if the heavy stone pressing on her heart had finally disappeared.

"There's no burden, you're just thinking too much!"

Xu Jia shook her head and said.

Among other things, the number of matchmakers coming to their door had significantly decreased in the past year, which actually made her happy to have some peace and quiet.

"But don't just focus on work, you should also communicate more with Chen Qiu and develop your relationship."

Lin Fang changed the subject, saying earnestly.

"Mom, what relationship is there to develop? There's nothing between him and me."

Lin Fang glanced sideways at her daughter.

Although she was a rural woman, she wasn't foolish.

The fact that Xu Jia could earn so much money right after starting her business, wasn't it all thanks to Chen Qiu?

If there were no feelings, would he help you make money?

"I'm too lazy to argue with you. I'm telling you, you need to pay more attention. He's a billionaire now, and who knows how many vixen are eyeing him!"

"If some other vixen snatches him away, you'll have nowhere to cry!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jia's lips twitched slightly.

She couldn't split herself into two, so how could she follow Chen Qiu around all day to monitor him?

At this moment, a thought flashed in Xu Jia's beautiful eyes.

Xu Yi could complete this task!

As Chen Qiu's secretary, it seemed perfectly fine for Xu Yi to follow Chen Qiu all day.

It's just that she was afraid it would be like throwing a meat bun to a dog, never to return!

...The next day.

Chen Qiu welcomed a few childhood friends who had returned from working out of town.

Including Chen Xiang, there were three of them in total, marveling as they stroked the horch parked in the courtyard.

"We were all poor just fine, how did you suddenly get rich?!"

Chen Ping sat in the driver's seat, caressing the steering wheel. One second he was indignant, the next he turned to Chen Qiu and said with a sincere face.

"Brother Qiu, do you still need a driver? I just passed my B1!"

"You, a stinky Lala driver, are you even worthy of being Brother Qiu's driver?"

Chen Yewu pulled Chen Ping out of the car.

"I was a soldier for two years, that's more advantageous than you!"

"Brother Qiu, choose me!"

At this moment, Chen Xiang snorted lightly.

"You two should just go to bed!"

"My Brother Qiu now has a secretary to pick him up and drop him off."

"A mature beautiful woman, a loli with a child's face, which one isn't better than you two!"

As Chen Xiang spoke, he recalled Song Xiangtong and An Wan whom he had seen that day, and his tone immediately became envious.

Chen Ping and Chen Yewu exchanged glances, gritting their teeth slightly.

"Brother Qiu, actually, I'm also known as Lin Xinru in Chunxi Road..."

"Get lost, don't disgust me!"

Chen Qiu cursed, wanting to kick them but fearing they might enjoy it.

"Being a driver is fine, but at night you can only wait outside the Commercial KTV."

As Chen Qiu's words fell, the two men's expressions immediately changed.

"You're right, bro!"

Originally, the few of them were a bit reserved towards the current situation.

A billionaire, just that label brought a pressure that made them feel apprehensive.

But after all, they were good childhood friends, and there was no financial relationship between them. After a few conversations, they quickly relaxed and found their old comfortable dynamic.
