Fan Shengmei secretly decided that she must not let Qiu Yingying fall for such a man, and she must give this silly girl a good talk when she returns.
With this preconceived idea, Fan Shengmei asked many questions implicitly and implicitly.
Ying Qin didn't notice that her attitude was different, so he answered seriously. Qiu Yingying then made jokes, and the dinner table was relatively harmonious.
“Ding-ling-ling…”
Halfway through the meal, Fan Shengmei suddenly remembered something in her hand. It was a call from her mother Liu Meilan, which made her feel a little irritated. She could only find an excuse to go out and answer it.
Although Liu Meilan knew that her daughter was different from before, she was troubled by her son these days, so she gritted her teeth and called again.
Fan Shengmei still maintained her previous attitude and said, "I've made it very clear. If you still talk about Fan Shengying, you won't be able to get through to me anymore."
Liu Meilan was very humble, "Xiao Mei, don't say that, we are all family, there is no overnight hatred.
Mom, please help your brother just once, and if he is safe, he won't bother you anymore, right?"
Fan Shengmei said angrily: "I can't help you. You throw all your problems to me. Am I omnipotent? I spent ten years of my life in exchange for two hundred thousand yuan just to save your son, and what happened?
So I won't care anymore, and this is the last time I will say this. He is a grown man with hands and feet, and it is no problem for him to earn money and support himself."
"Xiao Mei, your brother has changed his ways. He has been looking for a job these days, but your sister-in-law's family is adamant and says that if he doesn't have a house, they will divorce him.
You said, if your brother really gets divorced, what will happen to Lei Lei? You are so capable, think of a solution first.
If you hadn't sold his house and he had no place to live, your sister-in-law wouldn't have treated him like this!"
"Mom, don't you think this is ridiculous? Why did I sell the house in the first place? It was to save my dad.
Besides, I paid the down payment for the house, and my family and I paid the loan. What's wrong with buying it? If I don't sell it, my dad will die.
Fan Shengying has no place to live, so he can find a job with free food and accommodation, or give him my room. Anyway, I will rarely go back. Even if I go back, I will stay in a hotel. That's it, I'm dead!"
After saying that, Fan Shengmei hung up the phone without giving her mother a chance to say anything else. Then she adjusted her mood and returned to the restaurant.
When Qiu Yingying saw her come back, she asked casually what happened. Fan Shengmei shook her head to indicate that everything was fine. Ying Qin attentively used serving chopsticks to pick up food for them.
It’s true that although the restaurant is not big, the food tastes really good and the prices are relatively affordable. The three of us only spent a little over 100 yuan in total, and the meal was a great success.
However, when it came time to pay the bill, Qiu Yingying took the initiative to pay, while Ying Qin sat aside without saying anything, which made Fan Shengmei frown again, and her impression of him dropped to a very low level.
But worried that Qiu Yingying would be sad and embarrassed, he didn't show anything, and the three of them left talking and laughing.

Chapter 815 Their own thoughts
After returning to Ode to Joy 2202, the two found that Guan Juer was no longer there. After sending a message to inquire about her, they went to wash up.
But after just a simple tidying up, Qiu Yingying couldn't wait to run to Fan Shengmei's door and ask what her impression of Ying Qin was.
Fan Shengmei changed her clothes and held the water cup as she thought about how to explain things to this girl. If it were her, she would definitely just say goodbye.
It’s not that she is materialistic, but in her deep-rooted mindset, it is the most basic courtesy for a boy to pay the bill when dining with a girl.
What's more, today we are inviting my girlfriend and her best friends to dinner, so Ying Qin should behave better.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that boys have to pay the bill. In special circumstances, it’s okay for girls to pay the bill.
But when Ying Qin's performance when there was some food on the table appeared, Fan Shengmei had some preconceived ideas and felt that this boy was a little stingy.
"He's okay, and he looks good, but there's one thing I don't understand. Do you kids like to go Dutch nowadays?"
After hearing Fan Shengmei's euphemistic words, Qiu Yingying, although careless, understood what she meant, so she quickly explained:
"No, Sister Fan, you don't know that I was the one who took the initiative to tell Ying Qin today that I must treat him to this meal.
He usually treats me and always buys me things. Although I always refuse expensive gifts, I still feel bad about it and think that I should return the favor.”
"Really? That's good. I was worried for a long time. So you two are a good match."
Only then did Fan Shengmei realize that she had misunderstood Ying Qin. The reason why he ordered cheap meals before was to save money for Qiu Yingying. In this way, he was not a bad person.
Qiu Yingying heard a completely different answer and continued to ask happily: "Really, Sister Fan? You also think I'm suitable, right? Then I can boldly accept his pursuit."
"You silly girl, why are you so bold?"
Fan Shengmei gave her a glare, and said in a tone of regret: "I'm telling you, little earthworm, girls need to be considerate sometimes, but not always.
For example, if you buy gifts, you can give gifts in return from time to time, but for small things like watching movies and eating, there is no need to go Dutch. Just accept what you should accept, and at most you can just say something sweet. "
"That won't work. No one's money comes from the wind. We can't just accept things from others."
"Little earthworm, I was wondering how come you suddenly came to your senses......"
"Sister Fan, Yingying, what are you talking about? Aren't we going to have dinner together? Why are you arguing?"
Guan Juer had just come down from upstairs. As soon as she opened the door, she heard what Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying were saying. She couldn't help but move over out of curiosity.
"Guan Guan, you're back!"
Qiu Yingying turned around and greeted her, then continued to look at Fan Shengmei and said in a disapproving tone, "Sister Fan, I don't think it's right to think this way.
No matter how much is spent, there should be a return. If he is the one who spends money every time they are together, how much money does he have to earn to be able to pay?
So we should split the bill between us. He makes money and I make money. There's no need to do that.
And I think it’s best for two people not to be involved in finances. Only love without money is pure.”
Fan Shengmei retorted helplessly: "What a silly girl, it is wrong for you to think like that.
Look at this place on the 22nd floor, whether it’s me, Andy, or Qu Xiaoxiao, which one of us goes AA when we go out to eat?
Do you think Andy and Qu Xiaoxiao are short of money? A rich second-generation and the CFO of Shengxuan Group are definitely not stingy, so why don't they go AA with the boys?
Remember, in love, what men and women care about most is who pays more. And there are two ways to pay, one is spiritual payment, and the other is material payment.
Although AA embodies absolute fairness, it lacks human touch. Over time, a dollar can become a fatal blow to a relationship. "
"Sister Fan, you also said that this is fair. Long-term unfairness is definitely not okay. So I don't believe that everyone thinks this way."
Although Qiu Yingying was a little confused, she still insisted on her opinion. When she saw Guan Juer beside her, she quickly grabbed her and asked:
"Guan Guan, you're in love now, who do you think is right, me or Sister Fan?"
"Everyone has different opinions on this issue. I think it's best to know when to stop. After all, in a relationship, treating each other with sincerity is the most important thing.
For example, between Brother Han and me, the gifts he bought for me were not cheap, while the things I bought for him with my salary were much less in value, but he never complained.
So there is no need to be too fussy. No matter how you get along, it is important to let the other person know and feel your feelings. "
After saying that, Guan Juer stood up to pour herself some water. Fan Shengmei, who was standing beside her, looked at her rosy complexion and felt indescribable envy in her heart.
For Guan Juer, the goal she strives for is not a problem at all. It is true that Han Tao is a playboy, but he treats his women really well.
This made her hate herself for the first time in all these years, and she lamented that she met him too late. If only she could have met Han Tao a few years earlier.
Qiu Yingying returned to her room thoughtfully. Ever since the last incident with Manager Bai, she no longer accepted other people's kindness easily and did not want to be seen as a girl who took advantage of others.
Especially after getting along with Ying Qin, the income gap between them was huge. In order to stand up straight, she wanted everything to be fair.
Now hearing what Guan Juer said, it does make some sense. The key is to make the other person feel your feelings.
..............................
The next day, after Han Tao got up in the morning, he looked at the message sent by Andy on his mobile phone, put on his sportswear and went downstairs for a morning run.
Normally, Guan Juer should have been waiting downstairs, but today, he didn't know what happened. When he ran around and came back, he didn't see her, so he replied with a message.
But he didn't guess why, because a girl's mind is unpredictable. Unless she wants to tell you, it will only add to your troubles.
At this time, Guan Juer came to the door of 2201 with two breakfasts. Ever since Andy spoke frankly about his own affairs, the two of them had reached an offensive and defensive alliance.
After all, Andy was very worried about his mental problems, so he accepted Guan Juer's existence, so that if he really lost his mind one day, there would be someone to accompany Han Tao on his behalf.
Hearing the doorbell, Andy, who had already finished washing up, went to open the door. Seeing Guan Juer coming, he was surprised and asked, "Guan Guan, you finished running so early today?"
Hearing this, Guan Juer picked up the breakfast in her hand and said, "No, I have something I want to talk to you about today, Sister Andy, so I brought breakfast with me."
"Okay, then I'll get the tableware!" Andy nodded, turned around to get the bowls and chopsticks, then sat down to eat with Guan Juer.
In fact, she still likes Guan Guan very much. She is never annoying and never causes trouble.
The most important thing is that Guan Guan admires herself very much, which is very important, and this is also the reason why Andy can accept her.
Because Guan Guan will definitely be a good assistant in the future. Although her mind is full of dogmas, she is very motivated and a girl with strong execution ability.
Andy believes that if Guan Juer is trained well, she will be able to take on greater responsibilities in the future and even hold a very high position.
By then, the division of labor between Guan Guan and I will be clear, one will be responsible for execution, and the other will make decisions behind the scenes.
However, in the world of love, women often lack rationality, wisdom and reason, and are completely unconstrained by time and people. Therefore, when dealing with Guan Juer, one must be more patient than others.
Her father worked in the system, while her mother held a mid-level position in a bank. It can be said that both of them were quite strict in their careers.
In addition, Guan Juer's mother always shows her own opinions in the family and likes to have her say on all kinds of matters.
Therefore, most of the daughters she raised could only act according to her expectations, so Guan Juer was also very rebellious.
Especially when encountering love, deep down in my heart I always firmly hope to be the master of my own destiny.
Therefore, you must strike a good balance in getting along with others. You must be able to control yourself, but also have emotional bonds as a basis.

Chapter 816: Each One’s Own Little Thoughts (2)
When it comes to cultivating qi, Guan Juer is definitely not as good as Andy. After all, one is a newbie who has just been working for a year, while the other is a corporate executive with rich experience.
Therefore, after eating in silence for a while, Guan Juer finally couldn't help looking at Andy opposite her, and after a moment's hesitation, she asked:
"Sister Andy, do you have any plans for the New Year's Day holiday?"
Andy took a sip of milk, put down the cup and said, "I don't have any special plans. The Bao's and Red Star mergers are on track. I plan to take a break on New Year's Day. What's wrong?"
The layout on the Bao side has been completed and what remains is for Bao Yifan to reorganize the company. The merger and acquisition of Red Star has also entered a new stage, so she will be busy for a while.
"oh oh!"
Guan Juer nodded and said tentatively: "Well, it's like this, Sister Andy, my mother asked me to go home for the New Year's Day holiday."
"I know about this. It's a good thing. It's the holiday season, so it's only right for me to go back and see my parents!"
Andy thought Guan Juer wanted to talk to him about something, but when he heard that she was going home, he was naturally happy for her.
If Andy remembered correctly, Guan Juer had not gone home for several holidays in order to work hard.
"Sister Andy, my mother wants me to go back with Brother Han."
After hearing what Guan Juer said, Andy finally understood what she meant. He didn't expect that this seemingly innocent girl actually had some small thoughts, so he smiled and said:
"This is a good thing. Last time your parents met Han Tao, they decided not to arrange any more blind dates for you. This time, you can take this opportunity to go back together and give an explanation to your family. You don't have to tell me specifically."
"How can that be? I must tell you. If Sister Andy has plans, I can't selfishly pull him back home. That's not fair to you."
"Xiao Guan, it's really okay. Since we have already made it clear before, then you don't have to think too much. I'm fine."
Recently, Guan Juer has basically been going to work and coming home on schedule, adapting to her new job, and occasionally going home to work overtime.
Andy was also busy with her work and would go to Nantong from time to time, so the two of them reached an invisible agreement that as long as Han Tao returned to Ode to Joy, they would take turns to be with him.
The other people on the 22nd floor didn't notice anything. At most, they knew that Guan Juer and Han Tao were in love, but no one doubted Andy's relationship with him, so the two of them reached a tacit understanding.
Women's thoughts are ever-changing. Guan Juer was relieved when she heard her say this and said with a smile:
"Thank you, Sister Andy. During the Chinese New Year, I told my parents in advance that Brother Han would not be allowed to come home with me.
Then, Sister Andy will go back with Brother Han to celebrate the New Year, or you can go out and travel together and have a good time for a few days."
Andy smiled and responded calmly, "No, I really don't care. If you have any plans, just make them as soon as possible.
There is one thing you are not prepared for. Have you thought about how to tell your parents? If they urge you to get married, how will you respond? "
"Well, I've thought about it. I'll say I'm still young and I'll wait a few years before making a decision. Anyway, I'm in the rising stage of my career now, and I'm not that old, so there's no rush.
If it really doesn't work out, we can have an engagement ceremony in a year or two and invite the main relatives to have a meal together. This way, if anything happens in the future, it won't embarrass my mom and dad."
Hearing this, Andy smiled and comforted her, "Just make up your mind. If your family is really pushing you, you can still get married.
You know my situation, and getting married is impossible. It will only hurt both myself and others. So you don't have to worry about my problems in the future. I will never be an obstacle."
"Sister Andy, how can that be possible? If that were the case, what kind of person would I be!"
"Okay, Guan Guan, let's stop arguing. It's actually a little early for us to talk about this now. Let's just let things take their course!"
