“It can’t be......”
Gu Ze Chen suddenly widened his eyes, his face filled with an expression of disbelief.
“No, why?!”
Gu Ze Chen scratched his head, unable to comprehend.
He picked up a mirror and looked at himself.
“I don’t look bad either, why don’t I have a girlfriend?”
Perhaps Ye Tian Ming's words in the morning had stimulated Gu Ze Chen, causing him to have this sudden desire to find a girlfriend and escape being single.
Of course, desire was one thing, whether he could achieve it was another.
Actually, Gu Ze Chen wasn't bad.
A high-level forensic pathologist, he was also a writer in secret, and his royalties were quite substantial.
Although he lived with his brother-in-law.
But it was more for convenience and to keep his lonely brother-in-law company.
He wasn’t really unable to afford a house.
Of course!
Those in the downtown area that cost tens of millions, forget it.
He really couldn’t afford those!
...
Parking lot.
Wen Jia Xi looked at the red Ferrari with its flashing lights, her face full of surprise as she looked at Ye Tian Ming.
“Is this your car?”
Ye Tian Ming nodded. “Yeah, get in.”
Wen Jia Xi felt a little dizzy as she got in the car.
“No, when did you buy the Ferrari?”
“I bought it a while ago, but you know, with these super high-end cars, it takes a long time to get them after you place an order. I ordered it half a year ago, and I only got it yesterday.”
Ye Tian Ming started the car, and with the roar of the engine, the red Ferrari slowly drove out of the parking lot.
The bright red body, full of tension, exuded an aura of dominance.
As soon as it drove out, it attracted the attention of many passersby.
After a while, Wen Jia Xi curiously asked, “So, Ah Ming, are you a rich second-generation?”
“Kind of,” Ye Tian Ming said. “My parents divorced and immigrated early on. I’m the only one in Hong Kong, but I have some relatives abroad.”
“Of course, I also have some investments, which allow me to earn some money.”
“I’m really envious of you. Unlike me, I only have this tiny fixed salary.”
Wen Jia Xi looked envious.
Those who truly treat money as dirt are always a very small number.
Most people also aspire to become rich.
However, Wen Jia Xi's family wasn’t bad either.
In this day and age, to become a forensic pathologist, and even a high-level one at a young age, the family background must be decent.
If it was really bad, how could they afford to give their children a higher education?
It’s just that Wen Jia Xi was more independent, and soon after she started working, she moved out and rented a house to live in.
But don’t think that Wen Jia Xi's living conditions were bad.
She earns tens of thousands of dollars every month, how could her life be bad!
This could be seen from the fact that she wears designer clothes and carries a luxury handbag worth tens of thousands of dollars to work every day.
This woman, she never treated herself badly.
However, with such spending, she probably hasn’t saved much.
What Wen Jia Xi envied was that Ye Tian Ming could control so much wealth.
Unlike her;
Her family actually disapproved of her becoming a forensic pathologist, thinking that it was an insult to the family tradition for a girl to be dealing with the dead all day!
Wen Jia Xi’s family could be considered an intellectual family.
Her father is a calligrapher, and her mother is a painter.
They even have some fame.
Therefore, they had always wanted her to inherit their legacy.
Unfortunately, Wen Jia Xi was too opinionated.
Since she was young, she never had any interest in those things.
Instead, she was very interested in medicine. When she grew up, she directly majored in medicine, and after graduating, she became a forensic pathologist.
Her parents opposed it, and even cut off her financial support.
Wen Jia Xi simply moved out.
She became self-sufficient!
Until now, Wen Jia Xi only goes home during the Chinese New Year.
And she never stays at home, even on New Year's Eve, she goes back to her own place to rest.
She couldn't stand her parents' prejudice towards her job, and that uncomfortable sense of control.
So, she simply kept her distance.
Anyway, when they get old, she will definitely take care of them.
She wouldn't be considered unfilial!
......
“Ah Ming, how is your relationship with your parents?”
In the parking lot, Ye Tian Ming parked his car, and the two of them got out of the car. Wen Jia Xi suddenly asked him.
“Not very good. We hardly contact each other.”
Ye Tian Ming said.
“Then it seems we’re in the same boat.”
Wen Jia Xi smiled and said.
Perhaps it's the general environment. In Hong Kong, influenced by the sunset empire’s capitalist society, many older generations in Hong Kong like to immigrate abroad nowadays.
Therefore;
There are quite a few cases like Ye Tian Ming’s, where they live in Hong Kong, but their parents have immigrated.
Wen Jia Xi’s parents are more traditional.
So they didn’t choose to emigrate.
But according to her, both of her parents have already become citizens of the sunset empire.
Traditional, but not entirely traditional.
Ye Tian Ming thought.
At the gym.
After touring the gym, Wen Jia Xi chose to buy a yearly membership.
As for Ye Tian Ming, he found Coach Tan Jing Yao and directly signed up for 30 private lessons.
Tan Jing Yao happily helped Ye Tian Ming with the procedures, then took him to his first lesson.
An hour and a half later;
Ye Tian Ming, covered in sweat, finally finished his workout.
“I’ll go take a shower first.”
He greeted Wen Jia Xi, who was sitting in the rest area, and ran to the men’s locker room to shower.
Wen Jia Xi didn't exercise much. She just ran for a while and then sat there to rest.
Ye Tian Ming doubted whether she would actually come to the gym a few times after getting this membership?
After taking a shower, feeling refreshed and changing into his everyday clothes, Ye Tian Ming came out of the locker room with his bag.
“Let’s go.”
He greeted Wen Jia Xi, who was sitting in the rest area, and the two of them left together.
“What do you want to eat?”
In the elevator, Ye Tian Ming asked.
“Hotpot, it’s simple.”
Wen Jia Xi said.
“Okay, I know a hotpot restaurant that tastes good.”
Ye Tian Ming nodded. He wasn’t picky about food.
He could basically eat anything!
