I sell time in the world.

Chapter 90: Engagement if it's right
If these twenty years are sold, you can get four hundred thousand.

You can use the 400,000 yuan to pay the down payment for a house or a car!

I can even give a little more money to my parents.
Thinking of this, Xie Xiaodong said firmly.

“I’m selling twenty years of my time!”

"Sell twenty years of life and get four hundred thousand!"

"Have you decided yet?"

Listening to the hoarse voice, Xie Xiaodong had almost no hesitation.

"I've thought about it!"

The black figure nodded and replied.

"Sign your name on the time-selling contract."

Xie Xiaodong searched for a while, picked up the pen lying on the table, and signed his name and bank account number.

Then he handed the parchment scroll to the black figure.

After a few seconds.

Xie Xiaodong heard a familiar yet unfamiliar sound from his mobile phone when a payment was received.

He was about to take out his cell phone to take a look when the hoarse voice of the black figure sounded again.

"Transaction successful!"

Under Xie Xiaodong's gaze, the parchment scroll instantly caught fire.

Before Xie Xiaodong could say anything, the black figure took a step and was about to leave.

The black figure just took a step forward, and in the next second, he was already at the door.

After taking another step, the black figure instantly disappeared from Xie Xiaodong's sight.

Xie Xiaodong's eyes opened wide, filled with shock.

He quickly ran out the door and looked around.

Just like when the black figure came, where is the human figure in this corridor?
Xie Xiaodong came to his senses instantly.

How could such a terrifying existence be a human?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Xie Xiaodong closed the door and returned to his room.

Pulling out his phone and taking a look at his mobile banking balance, he couldn't help but count it out.

"One, Ten, Hundred, Thousand, Ten Thousand"

"Four hundred thousand!"

I refreshed it several times to make sure the balance was correct.

Xie Xiaodong couldn't help laughing.

After twenty years of selling, Xie Xiaodong feels that he is in good condition now, there is no difference at all!
The only feeling I had was that I was a little bit sleepy.

This feeling was nothing more than the result of insomnia caused by learning that he was going to meet Zhou Lili's mother!
Correct!
That's why!

immediately.

Xie Xiaodong opened WeChat, found his father’s profile picture, and clicked on it.

After entering "10000" blocks, the transfer was made directly.

Just as he was about to get up, his cell phone rang.

After looking at the contact above, Xie Xiaodong pressed the answer button.

A man's questioning voice suddenly came from the phone.

"Xiaodong? Where did you get so much money?"

Listening to the somewhat nervous voice, Xie Xiaodong said with a smile.

"Dad, I forgot to tell you that I have found a job."

"My boss knew that I had just graduated and didn't have much money, so he gave me two months' salary in advance."

"You can use this money with confidence."

The man still said with some concern.

"Xiaodong, if we don't have money, we can just find a way ourselves."

"Don't you want to do anything illegal or criminal?"

The laughter in Xie Xiaodong's mouth became more and more obvious.

"Dad, how is that possible?"

"I have never done anything out of the ordinary since I was a child."

"How could I possibly go to the places you mentioned?"

"Don't worry, don't worry."

"By the way, if you still need money, tell me and I'll think of a way."

After talking to the man on the phone for a few words, Xie Xiaodong hung up the phone.

The smile on his face disappeared in an instant.

Before this, Xie Xiaodong was still in school and didn’t know anything.

Until now, Xie Xiaodong finally understood that in this world, one can't take a single step without money!

He sighed, picked up his backpack and left the rental house.

In a detached villa not far from the city center.

Zhou Lili looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her with indifference on her face.

"Mom, what do you mean?"

"Didn't I tell you that I would not only date Xie Xiaodong, but also marry him and have children in the future?"

"You already promised me then, didn't you?"

Zhu Lan smiled slightly and said.

"If I don't agree to you, will you study hard and get into college?"

An inexplicable anger suddenly arose in Zhou Lili's heart.

"So what you mean is that I can't be with Xiaodong anymore?"

Zhu Lan said calmly.

"I have made it very clear to him."

"I've made it very clear to you, right?"

Hearing this, Zhou Lili didn't get angry but laughed instead.

"Good good."

"I hope you won't regret it!"

After saying that, Zhou Lili walked quickly towards the second floor.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Lan's face changed and he quickly followed.

"Xiao Li, wait a minute."

"What do you want to do?"

When Zhu Lan went upstairs, he found that his daughter had just entered the room.

She felt a little relieved.

Standing in front of the door, Zhu Lan listened to the heart-wrenching sobbing in the room, and she spoke firmly.

"Calm down in your room first."

boom!
As soon as she finished her words, the sound of a heavy object hitting the door was heard instantly.

Zhu Lan understood that Zhou Lili was obviously venting her anger.

Zhu Lan's expression changed, but he finally swallowed the words back.

Back in the hall, she was just about to sit down.

A hurried doorbell suddenly rang.

Zhu Lan turned his head and looked over, only to see a young boy standing there.

Zhu Lan took a look and then looked away.

But the urgent doorbell ringing did not stop.

Zhu Lan frowned and walked towards the gate of the villa.

Arriving at the door, Zhu Lan crossed his arms in front of him and said impatiently.

"Xie Xiaodong, I just talked to you this morning, and you agreed."

"Why did you come to our house?"

"Are all the young people nowadays so shameless?"

Listening to Zhu Lan's harsh words, Xie Xiaodong still had a smile on his face.

"Auntie, I promised you before."

"You are right. If there is no material foundation, even if Xiaoli and I are together, I will only be holding her back."

"but now."

Having said that, Xie Xiaodong moved his hand and took out a car key from his pocket.

He quickly pressed the button twice, and a Corolla not far away immediately sounded an alarm.

Xie Xiaodong said confidently.

"But now, Auntie, I have bought the car."

"As for the house, I have already paid the down payment."

"As long as I work harder, I can give Xiaoli the home she wants!"

Looking at Xie Xiaodong's expression, Zhu Lan shook his head slightly and said.

"Although you didn't take my money, I don't know where your money came from."

"But a car and a house of less than 100 square meters, can this be considered a home?"

"You paid down payments on both the car and the house, right?"

Having said that, Zhu Lan questioned.

"What? Are you going to let my daughter stay with you and help you pay off your car and mortgage loans?"

The smile on Xie Xiaodong's face froze instantly.

"Auntie, what do you mean?"

Zhu Lan raised his eyebrows and explained.

"What I mean is, I won't let my daughter suffer like others."

"Do you understand now?"

After hearing this, Xie Xiaodong's face turned numb.

He nodded and was about to speak when Zhu Lan had already started walking towards the villa.

"Auntie, I understand."

Xie Xiaodong took a long breath, got into the Carraro and left.

At this time.

Zhou Lili suddenly ran out of the villa and looked at the car that had already gone away.

She quickly asked Zhu Lan.

"Is Xiaodong here?"

"What about others?"

In a single-family villa.

Zhou Lili walked out of her room and was about to sneak out.

Zhu Lan's whispered words reached her ears.

"I know, I know, President Cui"

"Of course we want your company's investment."

"We in Bowang have reached a difficult time"

Hearing this, Zhou Lili's eyes narrowed slightly, and she could hardly believe her ears.

investment?

Having a hard time?

Zhu Lan's voice continued.

"Boss Cui, I know your Zhai Yun has always liked Xiao Li."

"But no matter what, we have to give Xiaoli some time!"

"Although they grew up together, Zhai Yun went abroad after high school. After returning to China, they only met two or three times."

"Let them meet now?"

"Let me ask Xiaoli, if she is willing."

Before Zhu Lan finished her words, she noticed from the corner of her eye that Zhou Lili was standing not far behind her.

She said into the phone.

"I'll call you back later."

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Lan looked at Zhou Lili with a smile and said.

"Xiao Li, weren't you in the room? Why did you come out?"

Zhou Lili did not answer her words, but asked back.

"What happened to the company?"

"Why is it so difficult?"

Listening to Zhou Lili's words, the smile on Zhu Lan's face disappeared, she sighed and said.

"Actually, I didn't want to tell you about the company's affairs."

"But you've graduated from college now, and you've grown up."

"Your father's company has encountered some problems recently. A supplier ran away with 20 million yuan of the company's money."

"The company's funding chain has been cut off, and Party B is still urging us to make progress."

Zhou Lili frowned and said nothing.

No wonder she hasn't seen her dad these days.

So that’s it?
Zhu Lan continued to explain.

"Do you still remember your Uncle Cui? He is Cui Zheng's father who went to elementary school with you."

"After hearing about it, he was willing to invest money to solve the problems of your father's company and expand the scale of the company's development!"

"However, your Uncle Cui has a condition."

Zhou Lili asked.

"What conditions?"

Zhu Lan said somewhat embarrassedly.

"I want you to meet his son Choi Jung."

Hearing this, Zhou Lili understood instantly.

She clenched her fists and her words became colder.

"Meet once? And then what?"

Zhu Lan looked at Zhou Lili and responded.

"If it's appropriate, you can get engaged to Cui Zheng."

Suddenly, Zhou Lili understood.

It turned out that she had been used by her mother as a bargaining chip for the company's development!
Is this the reason why my mother is unwilling to accept Xie Xiaodong?

Seeing that his daughter didn't say anything, Zhu Lan continued to explain.

"Xiao Li, you also know how much your father has contributed to this company."

"He has been living in the company for a week!"

“You can say that I treat the company as my second child.”

“If it weren’t for this company, we might still be living in the urban village.”

"Xiao Li, you know the conditions of the urban villages."
