Yes, it is a unique scholarship, “Not everyone is guaranteed to have good grades.”
“Many people are just ordinary, so they also need opportunities.”
“A little help, for those with good grades, they simply won’t care, but for ordinary students, it really might make a difference.”
Shen Lan kept nodding, “That’s right, those with good grades really don’t worry about scholarships.”
Shen Lan, who had been consistently ranking first since elentary school, knew that as long as the grades were good, she would be a part of any good opportunity, “I haven’t really spent any money since middle school.”
Fan Chen originally didn’t want to say it, but soone was really too detestable, “Not only did you not spend any money, but you also made quite a lot.”
“So people go to college, at most, they earn enough to cover tuition and living expenses, but you, going to college, ended up making millions.”
“So strive for scholarships to study abroad that at most cover full living expenses and tuition, but you not only got it all covered, you also made a hefty sum.”
The more Fan Chen spoke, the more bitter he felt, “I originally thought that by the ti I graduated from college, if I could earn enough money for a car, that would be quite good.”
“And yet, this person here went ahead and bought a whole house in full paynt without making a sound.” Fan Chen felt like crying.
Huang Jing and Xia Ke were silent the whole ti, unable to interject.
The gap was just too large; what could they say?
Xia Ke sighed softly, “We’re all in college, yet the disparity is so stark.”
Huang Jing humd in agreent, “Indeed, we’re both attending college, but we’re spending money, while they’re making money.”
“Whether it’s buying a house in full or a car.” As Xia Ke said this, she suddenly realized sothing was off, “Right, didn’t you say you earned enough for a car?”
“So, how co I haven’t seen your car?” It hadn’t been that long; where did the car go?
Even if the car was disliked for having been used for too long, usually one would just replace it.
Generally, once soone buys a car, they don’t go back to living without one, unless they’re out of money.
Fan Chen pointed at Shen Lan, “I was planning to buy a car, but I was persuaded by him that a man should first buy a house.”
“Once you have a house, you have a nest.
He said the place right across from him was also on sale.”
“I checked out the house at the ti and thought the layout was nice, and since I was planning to continue my studies at school…”
“I figured I might as well buy the house, who knows, maybe I would end up staying there.”
“Wasn’t it only money for a car?” Xia Ke was very curious, never expecting her line of questioning might seem like prying into soone’s personal wealth.
Fan Chen was not the type to be petty.
Although he hadn’t known Xia Ke for long, he knew she was genuinely nice, almost like a naive big sister.
“I took out a loan.
You could say during my graduate studies, if I wasn’t in class, I was on the road trying to make money.”
Thinking back on that ti, Fan Chen felt it had truly been tough, “I really was led astray by you.”
He glared fiercely at Shen Lan, who had really gone too far.
Shen Lan was completely unafraid, “I led you astray?”
“Dare to say you’re not happy, when you bought that house, it was just over a million.
Even with interest, it wouldn’t exceed one and a half million.
How much can it sell for now?”
Shen Lan recalled carefully, “At least five million.”
“Not to ntion the rent you’ve collected from leasing it out over the years.”
“To accuse of misleading, why don’t you say I was helping you make a fortune.” Shen Lan asserted that he really wouldn’t carry this bla.
Good heavens, Huang Jing and Xia Ke were completely stunned.
They kept quiet on the side, although it had been hard, they couldn’t argue with the fact that the profits were exceptionally good.
Xia Ke spoke after a long pause, “After we arrived in Shencheng, we should have imdiately taken out a loan to buy a house.”
Huang Jing murmured in agreent, “But back then, how could we have known that housing prices would, would skyrocket so much.”
“And at that ti, how much were we earning anyway?” Not to ntion that the original owner’s salary had to support the expenses of two people, there was no way to save enough money to buy a house.
Alright, Xia Ke admitted that what Huang Jing said was very true.
Back then, they really were struggling just to survive, and buying a house and such needs were not their top priority.
“Plus, we’re about to have our own house very soon.” Huang Jing happily stated, “We’re among the earliest of our classmates to buy a house.”
Many classmates went into the IT industry after graduating, so started their own businesses, so worked in big IT companies, and others didn’t fare as well.
In the classmate group, Huang Jing and Xia Ke couldn’t be considered to be doing exceptionally well, but at least they couldn’t be said to be doing poorly either, they were just middle of the pack.
“Imagine how envious many people will be once we’ve bought our house.” Everyone who is a worker, no matter which city they live in, hopes to buy a house to settle down.
But the current housing prices in big cities are indeed heartbreaking, it can only be said that buying a house is really not an easy task.
Thinking about it, Xia Ke realized, “We can’t compare with those two, I reckon there aren’t many who could.”
With this thought, Xia Ke’s mood improved a lot, “As for , I’ll just compare with our classmates.”
“Right, compared to our classmates, we’re at least not at the bottom.” Huang Jing was always in high spirits.
“Let’s eat, let’s eat.” Huang Jing ate heartily, “Oh, by the way, Big Shot, I forgot to bring the car keys down with .”
It was mainly because they didn’t have many chances to et up in the company cafeteria, so the keys weren’t brought down.
“No worries, I don’t need it.
You just drive the car back later, I have a spare key,” said Shen Lan, who would only use the car for going to the supermarket or other places.
He didn’t use the car often and now was beginning to regret it a little.
Huang Jing didn’t insist on returning the car keys; after all, they were bound to et up eventually.
Xia Ke looked up at Huang Jing, then at Shen Lan, and didn’t speak up, “So you’ll go back every week?”
Every week?
That scared Huang Jing quite a bit, “How could I go back every week?”
“Even though I’m going back this ti, and I also have work to do, it’s still not the sa as being in one office, and discussing things is a bit inconvenient.”
“I’m definitely going to work hard to catch up.” Her company’s latest evaluation and the score she received could be said to be really good.
Otherwise, for the sa house, she would have had to pay tens of thousands more.
The company was so supportive, what else could Huang Jing, a working-class person, do?
Of course, work hard and strive not to drag everyone else down.
“My dad’s condition is also manageable, what follows is to just focus on his health and then on rehabilitation.”
“I’ll just call them every day, my mom has already hired soone to take care of him.”
“And with Huang Lei causing such a stir, I really don’t dare to go back.”
“What if Huang Lei takes the opportunity to ss around while I’m back, and then I get blad for it?
What would I do then?”
“I’d better stay away.” Even if Zhang Xiaoya and others heard Huang Lei’s incessant rambling, they could only beco more vigilant internally.
As for going to the police and the like, no one would believe them.
Police have many things to consider when handling cases; they can’t just take action based on soone’s word.
Right, Xia Ke thought about Huang Lei’s words and couldn’t help saying, “Can’t go back, that person is a madman.”
“A complete madman.”
