You Look Like You’re Made of Money - Chapter 44 (4)
Chapter 44 (4)
Su Yan raised an eyebrow.” I’m treating you? It’s not your money.”
Jiang Jingchuan thought for a moment and said, “Won’t you get paid after a while? Get me a meal then.”
“You still remember my salary?” Su Yan smiled. Jiang Jingchuan remembered.
Jiang Jingchuan had a straight face: “That’s for sure, this is my wife’s first salary, and I also get a medal from it.”
“A medal? What did you do?” What a thick face.
“Didn’t I give you a massage when you came back from work every day?”
Massage? Su Yan thought of some of his actions and suddenly fell silent. In comparing brazenness, she was willing to worship him.
The two talked for a long time until Jiang Jingchuan’s phone was almost out of battery, and they hung up.
Lying on the bed, Su Yan began to look forward to Jiang Jingchuan’s return.
The next day Su Yan came to the place where she had made an appointment with Wan Hao. They were eating Haidilao Hotpot. She looked at everything Wan Hao ordered. Su Yan couldn’t help but say: “Enough. There are only two of us. We won’t be able to finish everything if you order that much.”
Wan Hao finally ordered a shrimp slider after this and stopped. She apologized to Su Yan, “I said I was treating you to a big meal, but I can only bring you to eat Haidilao.”
She knew Su Yan could eat anything with her current conditions, but her quarterly bonus was limited. Eating seafood and some dessert was her limit.
Su Yan thought Wan Hao was quite interesting. What they were going to eat didn’t matter at all. Wan Hao thought of inviting her to eat when she got a bonus. The original owner was lucky to have such a friend.
“What are you talking about? What’s wrong with Haidilao? I want to eat this.” Su Yan felt steak couldn’t compare to a hot pot.
Wan Hao heard this also followed and laughed, “still remember? When I got a scholarship, your consignment store earned some money. We also ate this. It was really joyful back then.”
“Consignment store?” Su Yan was stunned.
Wan Hao did not think much about it, nodded, and said.” The girl next door in the dormitory recommended it as a way to earn money. I still remember going with you to the wholesale market to buy those trinkets. It’s fun to think about.”
Although Su Yan’s family weren’t bigshots, they were pretty well-off. Her monthly living expenses were nearly three times more than hers. At that time, she had no money at the end of the month, so Su Yan treated her to some good food. Because of this, no matter how much she disagreed with Su Yan, she never ended their friendship.
Su Yan’s temperament was good. When she was studying, she was asked to do a film. However, the Su family was strict about going into the entertainment business. So when other students were part-timing, Su Yan was in the dorm, bored.
When she did the consignment store, she earned at most one or two hundred yuan a month, which was when her business peaked.
A few months later, Su Yan stopped going to the wholesale market. Later, she stopped the consignment store as well.
Wan Hao always felt that Su Yan was the kind of girl who should be cared for in the palm of her hand. Su Yan seldom spoke in school. She was a good friend, so she felt heartbroken when she saw Su Yan’s silence.
She also always felt that Su Yan should live the most comfortable life. Now that Su Yan had such a life, Wan Hao felt happy for her.
In the past, some people provoked her relationship with Su Yan. Her best friend looked so beautiful and can be said to be god’s favorite, but she never felt jealous of her because she knew that Su Yan treated her sincerely.
Su Yan still didn’t know what a consignment store was. She smiled at Wan Hao, not knowing how to answer her.
“Look at your circle of friends. You’ve been doing well lately, right?” Wan Yi took the beef rolls and chucked them into her bowl.
Su Yan nodded. Although she seldom saw Wan Hao, she really liked her.
Compared to those girlfriends she saw on TV, Wan Hao was real.
She could feel that Wan Hao was really good to the original owner. She also hoped for the original’s happiness. When she was with Shen Peiran, she respected whatever decision she would make, which was already rare.
“I only found out about the price of the skincare set you gave me later.” Wan Hao looked at Su Yan, “It’s too expensive.”
Before smoke left the island, she bought Wan Hao skincare set at the duty-free shop. Wan Hao didn’t know the brand was rare until someone came to her house for dinner and told her the price after seeing it on her dresser.
Su Yan knew about the prices in this era when she bought it. She smiled and said: “I don’t think it is expensive to buy it for you.”
Wan Hao smiled and was obviously very happy.
After eating, they went shopping. Wan Hao wanted to treat herself to a pair of shoes but hesitated after seeing the price.
“I think they suit you very well.” Su Yan only said this sentence from beginning to] end.
Wan Hao finally bit her teeth and purchased the shoes. Wan Hao was excited.” It’s my first time buying such expensive shoes. It feels strange, but I’m in a good mood.”
That was natural.
How could you be unhappy spending money on yourself?
When they got tired of shopping, they went into a bookstore. In fact, it was a coffee shop. Many people were holding books and drinking coffee.
There was no space inside, so they had to sit outside.
Across the street was a flower store. Even in the center of a mall like this, the flower store looked cold, Wan Tui said while sipping his iced coffee.” Remember?”
Su Yan got scared as soon as she heard her talk.
Because she doesn’t remember anything, she hasn’t experienced it at all.
She continued to eat mousse with her head down and didn’t speak.
Wan Yi pointed to the flower store and said: “You said you would open a flower shop if you had money. Do you still have the idea?”
Maybe every girl had such a dream. Open a flower store, or cake store, because flowers and cakes are sweet memories.
Su Yan asked. “The location is so good, so how come this store’s business is so lukewarm?”
Wan Hao looked and said, “It’s not a holiday, so business won’t be that good.”
“It’s expensive to rent a store in a place like this.” Su Yan underestimated the price of goods in A city, which is said to be a downtown store.” The rent is definitely expensive, and the employees need to be hired. It’s impossible to make a lot of money in one month.”
Fortunately, the person sitting beside her was Wan Hao. If it was someone else, they would want to hit someone.
Mrs. Jiang actually cared about the rent and the employees’ salaries? That money was nothing but a drop in the bucket for Jiang Jingchuan.
Su Yan didn’t think so. She could buy bags, cosmetics, and clothes. She needs them, and she can touch them.
What about the flower shop? Every time she invests, she needs to employ workers. She would even lose money if she isn’t able to make ends meets.
It wasn’t worth it.
Su Yan said positively to Wan Hao, “It’s the most fun to make money.”
Buying stuff was also the case.
Wan Hao agrees with Su Yan’s opinion and sincerely said: “You have such a good idea. You will indeed lose money when you do business.”
She was happy her friend grew up! She couldn’t believe that she thought of losing money!
Su Yan grinned at her compliment.
She took out her mobile phone and told Jiang Jingchuan about it and then sent a few proud expressions.
It meant that she was smart as well.
Jiang Jingchuan: “You need to spend a lot of money every month. You’d save a lot of money if you don’t open one. My wife is really awesome”
Su Yan: “Of course. [satisfied] [satisfied]”
