Upon hearing this, Yao Bin nodded; he was aware of all these details. Wasn't it explained in the drama?
"Oh, Miss Nansun! Then I'll be frank. A house in Sanlin would cost at least 35,000 yuan per square meter. Even if we assume a three-bedroom house is 100 square meters, that would be 3.5 million yuan. You must be in debt on the mortgage now, right?"
Yao Bin works in finance, so he likes to use data to support his arguments.
"Yes, what's the problem?" Jiang Nansun was very proud of this. Her boyfriend had bought a house on his own, which was fantastic.
"You say he got to where he is today through his own hard work, step by step. How does a student earn over a million? The monthly mortgage payment must be over ten thousand. Sorry, I work in finance, I like to use data to speak, please don't take offense." The idea that Zhang Anren could afford a down payment without family support is basically nonsense.
Zhang Anren's circumstances would be considered good in other places, but in Shanghai, his extravagant spending isn't particularly eye-catching.
"Little Yao, you've really hit the nail on the head. I don't know what my daughter is thinking! She insists on being with that Zhang Anren. I'm afraid that if they're together, they'll have to live a very frugal life after paying off the mortgage. They'll end up having to deal with all sorts of trivial matters." Jiang Pengfei agreed with Yao Bin's words.
No wonder Yao Bin is better than him. After saying that, he gave Yao Bin a thumbs up under the table.
In this drama, among the named characters, Zhang Anren is probably the second poorest. The poorest is his ex-girlfriend, Yuan Yuan. Hmm, thinking of that little green tea girl Yuan Yuan, Yao Bin felt a surge of excitement, calling her "brother" repeatedly.
"Dad, Zhang Anren isn't that kind of person. I believe that if we work together, we can definitely have a better life." Jiang Nansun didn't refute Yao Bin's words because she thought Yao Bin was right. But now, Princess Jiang had never worried about money and didn't know what money was at all.
"Your daughter, I'm doing all this for your own good…" Jiang Pengfei said with a sigh.
Dai Yin exclaimed, "Alright, alright, today's dinner is for Xiao Yao, not to scold my daughter." Although she agreed with Yao Bin's words, she wouldn't say it bluntly; she had to be strategic.
After listening to Yao Bin's analysis, Dai Yin thought more highly of him. This young man is really good!
After that, Yao Bin and Jiang Pengfei chatted for a while, and Yao Bin didn't talk to Jiang Nansun about anything else. Jiang Nansun studied architecture, while Yao Bin was in finance, so they had no connection at all.
"Heh, you ignore me today, but you'll be begging for my attention tomorrow!" Wang Dachui's voice rang in Yao Bin's ears.
"Uncle Jiang, I see you lost a lot on this stock before? You didn't tell me the truth?" Yao Bin asked, knowing it was a pointless question, but still offering a friendly reminder.
"I believe I'll eventually break even. I'm a professional in stocks. As the saying goes, no investment, no return," Jiang Pengfei said, patting his chest.
Jiang Nansun interjected, "Then you've sacrificed too much. How did all our houses disappear?"
"Nan Sun, you..." Jiang Pengfei was very unhappy. Why was his own daughter always undermining him?
"Alright, alright, Lao Jiang, Nan Sun is just telling the truth. You need to seriously consider your stocks, after all, we're still here." Dai Yin interrupted Jiang Pengfei, not wanting the father and daughter to argue again.
"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Dai is right! Stocks are ultimately risky." Yao Bin had already given the warnings he needed to. If you're going to die, then he can bury you himself.
"Thank you, Xiao Yao, I'll be careful!" Jiang Pengfei readily agreed, but in his heart he didn't take it seriously, thinking that he could always make back the money he had lost in the stock market.
The meal was quite good thanks to Yao Bin's encouragement, and they didn't drink any alcohol before preparing to drive home. However, Jiang Pengfei stopped them. Yao Bin wondered what the problem was.
"Nan Sun, why don't you go see Yao Bin off? Even if it doesn't work out, it's good to be friends," Jiang Pengfei suggested.
Dai Yin tugged at Jiang Nansun's sleeve, saying, "Your dad is right, having more friends means having more options."
Jiang Nansun had no choice. She couldn't say she disliked Yao Bin, but thinking that her parents were right, she could only walk over and say something to Yao Bin.
"Let's go, Mr. Yao, I'll see you off!"
"Don't call me that. I'm a few years older than you. Just call me Brother Bin." Yao Bin smiled innocently, but in his heart he was thinking, "Call me Brother Bin now, but there will be a time when you call me Dad later."
"Okay, Brother Bin, let's go. I'll take you to the parking lot. This is my parents' task." Jiang Nansun smiled.
Soon the two arrived at where Yao Bin had parked his car. Jiang Nansun knew that Yao Bin was a good catch, and his eyes darted around as if he had some idea.
"Brother Bin, let me introduce you to a girlfriend. She's my best friend, and she's very pretty." Jiang Nansun started promoting her best friend Zhu Suosuo because she had always wanted to find a rich boyfriend. She had almost been scammed by Master Ma last time, while Yao Bin was a genuine rich man.
Yao Bin smiled, knowing she was probably referring to Zhu Suosuo, but he couldn't expose her.
"Oh, then tell me about it."
"This is my best friend, her name is Zhu Suosuo! Look, here's a picture of her, isn't she pretty?" As she spoke, Jiang Nansun found a picture of Zhu Suosuo on her phone. There were countless photos of the two of them together.
Yao Bin feigned a strange expression: "Oh, what a coincidence! We already know each other, from the time at Yi Garden."
Jiang Nansun suddenly realized who Yao Bin was. After hearing Yao Bin's words, she knew exactly who he was. He was the rich second-generation that Zhu Suosuo had mentioned, the one who had helped her expose Master Ma's tricks.
"Oh, Brother Bin, so it was you who helped Suo Suo. She's been mentioning you all this time, saying she'd treat you to a meal to thank you sometime." Knowing that Yao Bin had helped her best friend, her opinion of Yao Bin changed.
"Oh, you're too kind! I had completely forgotten about it. I'll be going now! Bye-bye!" Yao Bin chuckled. Zhu Suosuo did send him messages every day, usually just to say good morning. Recently, she had changed her tune, telling Yao Bin to come and look at the house when he had time.
It seems that Zhu Suosuo has already joined Jingyan Group.
"Okay, take care, Brother Bin!"
Jiang Nansun greeted him with a smile, and the designated driver stepped on the gas and left the parking lot of the private restaurant.
Watching Yao Bin's car drive away, Jiang Pengfei walked up and pointed at Jiang Nansun, saying, "What can I say about you? Don't you know what kind of people Yao Bin is? He lives in the Shengshi Binjiang luxury apartment worth over 50 million yuan and drives such a nice car. What's so great about Zhang Anren? You're so eager to follow him and live a life of poverty..."
"My affairs are none of your business. I think Brother Bin is right, stocks are risky," Jiang Nansun said irritably, then looked at Dai Yin: "Mom, you guys go back first, I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back later."
