Chapter 68 Compromise

  Not to mention Jiang Youlan, even Zhou Weiwei felt surprised. She was very clear about Mu Laoshi's family situation, and seeing Mu Yan say it so lightly, she feared that Mu Yan was now holding on tight, and anxiously asked: "Yan Ge, are you really okay?"

  She was worried, and Chu Qingqing, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't help but speak up: "Teacher Zhou, it's just a house, if this can still be difficult for my brother, you're underestimating him too much. Brother, if you don't have enough money on you, I can use my own savings to give to you, no need for you to return it."

  "You little girl, you just said I couldn't handle it, now you're going to use your own money, isn't this a joke?" Seeing that she was indeed kind-hearted despite her sharp tongue, Mu Yan also smiled.

  "What do you know, kid? Do you have any idea how much a house costs?" Zhou Xueru had been displeased with Chu Qingqing from the start, and hearing her speak so arrogantly made him even more annoyed. He could tell that Chu Qingqing was definitely not a local of Donghai, after all, her accent wasn't right. Assuming she didn't know the housing prices in Donghai, he couldn't help but lecture her for a moment.

  Chu Qingqing was the kind of person who didn't like to lose out. As soon as she heard this, she wouldn't care about Zhou Xueru's identity at all. She let out a cold snort and pulled out a card from her small bag around her waist, then slapped it onto the table and said: "You can go now to the building complex near No. 7 Middle School and pick one out. Just swipe the card for whichever suite you like, isn't that just a few million?"

  As soon as she saw this little girl, she directly took out all her cards and actually said "It's just a few million" with a light tone. The momentum immediately stunned everyone, especially Zhou Xueru, whose face turned pale. She was also an education bureau person, but a student was showing off in front of her, and she really didn't know what to do!

  "You're a little girl from who-knows-where, without any family education whatsoever!" Zhou Xueru said in a rage.

  Jiang Youlan saw her husband get angry, but she also figured out that this little girl might have some background. She immediately pushed her daughter under the table and held down her husband.

  Zhou Wenwen also realized that her father had offended Chu Qingqing and immediately said, "Dad, Chu Qingqing's mother is Mayor Zhang."

  "Mayor Zhang? Which Mayor Zhang?" Zhou Xueru raised his head, unable to tell them apart.

  "It's Zhang Zixuan, the mayor who just took office in Donghai last year!" Zhou Wenwen said.

  As soon as he heard his daughter's words, Zhou Xueru's face suddenly turned iron-green. He had just yelled at Mayor Zhang's daughter and said she was not well-educated, which was equivalent to scolding Mayor Zhang! If this little girl goes back and tells her mother, he'll be in big trouble at work!

  He suddenly turned pale, subconsciously wanting to apologize, but thinking of apologizing to a little girl was really embarrassing, and his face became even more awkward, somewhat at a loss.

  Jiang Youlan felt that her husband was getting more and more stubborn, all because of the system he was in. She shook her head and said: "Qingqing, don't take this to heart, my old man is just a stubborn old fool, I'll talk to him properly later!"

  "Hmph!" Chu Qingqing let out a cold snort at this time, and then didn't say anything else. It was clear that her identity had been exposed, and there was nothing fun about it anymore.

  "Does Mu Yan know Mayor Zhang?" asked Jiang Youlan.

  I know him, and I know him very well. Unfortunately, it's okay to mention this in passing, but I couldn't admit it in front of Chu Qingqing. Otherwise, who knows what this little clever ghost would discover? She immediately smiled and said: "Mayor Zhang is noble and dignified, who in Donghai doesn't know him, it's just that we haven't formally met!"

  "We haven't formally met before, but we've had very in-depth exchanges in private." Mu Yan thought to himself.

  As soon as she heard this, Jiang Youlan understood that the so-called "Dry Brother" was actually just Chu Qingqing's nonsense and didn't count. If Mu Yan really had a good relationship with Mayor Zhang, she wouldn't have stopped them either, but it was just a private relationship. Who knows, maybe Mayor Zhang would be dissatisfied if he knew his daughter was with an ex-labor camp prisoner.

  Putting aside Chu Qingqing's background, Jiang Youlan continued: "Right, I just heard Director Xu mention that you're now driving for Yu Zong of Fenghua Group?"

  "Oh! I've been her driver for a while." Mu Yan said.

  "So, you're also one of the people that the old boss trusts more, which is very beneficial for you. Fenghua in Donghai is also a well-known large group. My daughter, Wenwen, also needs to find someone with some status and identity. Our second condition is that as long as you can become a manager at Fenghua, we will acknowledge your relationship!" Jiang Youlan said.

  "Mom? Didn't we agree that as long as one of the two conditions is met, you won't stop us? How come it suddenly became both must be met!" Upon hearing her mom's words, Zhou Wenwen immediately got anxious.

  Mu Yan seemed to understand, and it turned out that Wenwen had already made things clear with her family. However, from Wenwen's anxious appearance now, it could be seen that Wenwen still had feelings for him, which made Mu Yan very happy.

  "Wenwen, don't be in a hurry. Actually, Auntie's conditions aren't that high. But I won't hide it from Auntie either, I've already become the manager of Fenghua Group. Although the company will only release the appointment announcement tomorrow, our company's Yu Zong has already had a very in-depth conversation with me about this matter!" Mu Yan said.

  When they heard this, Jiang Youlan and Zhou Xueru were both surprised. After all, they didn't think that Mu Yan would lie to them at a time like this, and it was easy to verify the truth of the matter. As for Zhou Wenwen, she was not only surprised but also delighted. Although she had already made up her mind to make sacrifices for love, if Mu Yan really turned out to be so outstanding, she felt very happy about it.

  "Mom, look at Mu Yan, he has already met the conditions you set. You can't go back on your word!" Zhou Wenwen said, pulling her mother's arm and acting spoiled.

  Jiang Youlan had originally given him two conditions, which she thought were almost impossible for Mu Yan to fulfill. Now looking at his appearance, it seemed that he had already completed them. Although the matter of the house was just something he said casually without a problem, from his demeanor, Jiang Youlan didn't think he was speaking nonsense.

  "Alright, if it's like this, I can agree to you two dating!" Jiang Youlan agreed.

  "That's great, I knew you'd be the best, Mom!" Wenwen hugged her mother's arm and leaned against her shoulder like a happy little bird.

  "Wife, how could you agree to this?" Zhou Xueru pulled Jiang Youlan aside and asked discontentedly.

  "What else can we do? We've already agreed on everything, are you going to go back on your word now? Your daughter doesn't even hate us to death, and Mu Yan has managed to meet the conditions we set out, which means he's definitely not an ordinary person. At the very least, he's capable, so Wenwen won't suffer if she marries him!" Jiang Youlan spoke her mind.

  "Never mind, let it be. Today I offended Director Xu, at most I'll just continue being a small section chief, as long as my daughter doesn't suffer, that's all that matters!" Zhou Xueru sighed.
