Journey To the World of Film and Television Chapter 241

Chapter 241 Born without love, then don't give birth

Back to the twelfth floor, Gu Jia hadn't fully recovered yet. Looking at the 300-square-meter river-view room that she had just stayed in for a short time, and recalling the 800-square-meter duplex on the third floor, the more she looked at it, the more cramped she felt.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was in a bad mood, Xu Huanshan put down the pen and paper in his hand, got up and walked over.

"What's the matter, wife? Others don't want to help?"

"Have you been to the top floor of this building?" Gu Jia did not answer, but sat down and took out her mobile phone to look up the auction records of Monet's "Water Lily".

"Top floor?" With their current worth, buying this house with a loan is already the limit, Xu Huanshan smiled, "Didn't it mean that it was not within our expectations at all?"

After checking the price of the top floor of Water Lily, Grand Hyatt Mansion is the top mansion in Shanghai. The higher the floor, the more expensive the price is. Gu Jia will not fully believe the 'fake' that Zhou Ji just said, after all She and Zhou Ji have only met each other twice, and Mrs. Wang's house, which has been renovated for nearly 700 million or 800 million yuan, and the fact that she bought so many jades and jadeites without blinking an eye, it should be no problem to buy a real Monet.

"What's the matter? Why are you talking without beginning or end?" Seeing Gu Jia's troubled and contemplative look, Xu Huanshan reached out to stroke her head, and asked with concern, "Did you get any stimulation?"

Gu Jia said to herself: "She lived that kind of life at the age of forty, we are now thirty, and we are not far behind her."

Xu Huanshan couldn't help laughing, "Who is it? Is it so exciting for you to go to the top floor? This is upstairs."

"You said, would rich people buy fake paintings?" Gu Jia looked at Xu Huanshan seriously, and interrupted: "People who can't even tell the difference between Van Gogh and Monet can live in such a house." Here, if we work hard, we will definitely be able to."

Hearing this, Xu Huanshan couldn't help swallowing, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

In his opinion, based on the current situation of the company, it is already very stressful for them to sell the previous house with a loan to buy here, and he himself is very satisfied with his current life.

Even if you don't live here, you are still in the old house of more than 100 square meters. As long as the family is happy and harmonious, you can still give your children the most favorable living environment among their peers.

Gu Jia is different, she is too hopeful of her husband Jackie Chan, her eyes are always fixed on the top of the mountain, but this mountain looks at the height of that mountain, what she always wants is better, better.

"Okay, don't think about it, you should hurry up and think about your design plan."

Xu Huanshan stood up hesitantly, walked a few steps and turned around hesitantly, but saw Gu Jia making a cheering gesture towards him, "Husband~ come on!"

Gu Jia's encouraging eyes made Xu Huanshan choke on what he wanted to say.

As a man, it is his responsibility to let his wife and children live a better life. Even though he often feels that Gu Jia's pursuit is a bit too extreme, he has never refuted it.

Because Gu Jia is too strong, she will always stand at the helm of the family at the top.

Backing to the workbench, Xu Huanshan picked up the drawing paper, looked up at Gu Jia who was sitting in front of the window thinking, rubbed his forehead with some headaches, and stared blankly at the fireworks design draft that was about to be drawn.

Family comes first, and these gorgeous fireworks designed by himself are also his lifelong pursuit.

On the other side, Zhou Ji received a bank transfer text message as soon as he arrived downstairs. Anyway, it was all money blown by the wind. Zhou Ji glanced at the long string of zeros in front of the decimal point, but he didn't care much.

Passing by a luxury store downstairs, the "MISHL" LOGO came into view. Zhou Ji didn't have much research on these luxury goods, but just glanced at them from the corner of the eye to display several small satchels, which were quite similar in shape to those used by Si Teng back then. , With a thought, he stepped up and walked in.

"Welcome to Misia."

Several salesmen in the store suddenly showed their iconic smiles.

Generally, in luxury stores like this, men in their twenties rarely come alone. Usually, most of the customers they receive are women over 30. Even if there are men, most of them come with their female companions.

"Hi sir, welcome to Misia, do you have any familiar sales?"

Zoe took two steps forward and smiled.

"No." Zhou Ji glanced around the interior decoration, and his eyes fell on the package area.

Aware of this, Wang Manni hurried forward and said politely, "Then how about I serve you?"

Zhou Ji nodded: "Yes."

Wang Manni guided sideways: "I don't know what help you need? A batch of men's clothing has just been added to the store, and there are several styles in it that must be particularly suitable for you."

Zhou Ji shook his head, glanced at the bag area, and said with a smile, "Bring over some women's bags over there."

Wang Manni smiled and said: "Sir, you have a good eye. These are new products that just came out this year, and you can't find the same ones in Shanghai~"

Seeing the two of them walking towards the package area, Nancy said to Ma Sinu: "Sister Nini is very lucky, isn't she? I just got an order of more than one million yuan two days ago, and today there is a rich and handsome man who came to give it to the girl." Friends buy bags."

"Good luck? A blind cat ran into a dead mouse." Zooey said disdainfully while arranging her gloves, "Haven't you heard? The district where she lives is catching up with the aging of the pipes, and the house is almost burnt down. If it wasn't for an accident The investigation is not her fault, and her salary and bonuses have to be fully discounted in the repair costs alone."

"Huh? Isn't that too miserable?"

Zoe curled her lips and said, "I don't know if she is miserable or not. With such a plague god, her landlord must be miserable anyway."

Here, the whispers of several people could not be hidden from Zhou Ji's ears. After hearing their conversation, Zhou Ji realized that Wang Manni in front of him was the tenant of that house.

On that day, the landlord suddenly repeatedly knew without thinking that it was the result of her soft-heartedness. Although she didn't know what she said to the landlord, but it could make the landlord temporarily repent, and the rent of that house would definitely not be lower than the 90% he quoted. Thousands.

Now, the ID card and household registration have been completed, and a few pieces of jade can be exchanged for a string of zeros. Zhou Ji's demand for that house is not so great.

Pointing to the whole row of bags that Wang Manni took out, Zhou Ji suddenly remembered a **** drama that he had seen before, and couldn't help laughing, "Put this, this, and this back, I want everything else .”

"Ah?" Wang Manni froze for a moment, and reconfirmed it again. Then she wanted to report to the manager in surprise, but as soon as she turned around, she reacted and apologized to Zhou Ji quickly, with a smile on her face It also became more brilliant, "Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment, there are drinks and refreshments here, if you need anything, you can call me at any time."

Not long after, Wang Manni and the manager walked towards him with bags of various sizes. The manager respectfully returned the bank card to Zhou Ji, and at the same time handed him an invitation-style card.

Zhou Ji opened the card, and there were two luxury cruise tickets inside. The manager explained: "That's right, Mr. Zhou, our group head office is holding an event recently, congratulations on becoming a lucky customer of our South China region, these two tickets The ticket is a deluxe cabin ticket on the MSC Splendid cruise ship, you can take your girlfriend to Europe to enjoy a cruise, I wish you a happy time."

The female companion Zhou Ji showed a wry smile, her heart was empty, how could she have a companion?

After closing the invitation card, Zhou Ji casually inserted it into the ribbon of a packing box, glanced at the packing bags that were about to fill the table, and asked, "I live on the 17th floor of the Grand Hyatt Mansion, please find someone to help me." Shall I send it up?"

The manager smiled and said, "Nini, can I trouble you to help me and make another trip?"

When encountering such a big client, Wang Manni would not find it troublesome, so she quickly agreed with a smile on her face.

In the past, I went shopping with Si Teng, and I became a walking tool man. Now I enjoy the pleasure of buying, buying, and buying. Seeing Wang Manni holding various packaging bags on her shoulders, I don't know why. Ji himself also felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.

Going to the Grand Hyatt Mansion, I saw that the lobby was a little noisy. The front desk explained to everyone with an apologetic face that the public elevator and the backup elevator were temporarily out of order. The property has urgently contacted the maintenance personnel to come to repair it.

Seeing that it will not be repaired for a long time, if you want to go up and down the stairs, you can only climb the stairs.

It's easy to say that the residents of the bottom floor can climb up if they bite the bullet on more than a dozen floors, but if it's a 'rich family' above the 20th floor, it's a bit of a pain to go up and down.

Zhou Ji looked back at the packing bags hanging on Wang Manni's body, and asked the front desk if he could store the things with them temporarily, but these were things worth millions after all, so the front desk naturally didn't dare to accept them.

Wang Manni said with a straight face: "Mr. Zhou, I'm fine, or we can go up the stairs."

Zhou Ji swept the small leather shoes under her feet, shook her head and said, "The elevator won't be repaired in a while, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, so you can take these things back to the store first, and it won't be too late to deliver them tomorrow when you are free." .”

"How can this work?" Wang Manni just wanted to say more, when Zhou Ji joked, "What? Are you still a black shop?"

The conversation has come to this point, Wang Manni had no choice but to express her gratitude again and again, and said that she would send it to him as soon as she got to work tomorrow.

"Don't, don't, don't~" Zhou Ji raised his forehead and said, "The most annoying thing is that someone disturbs my sleep, you'd better wait until this time tomorrow to deliver it, and then I will tell the property owner to let them take you up."

At the same time, Gu Jia noticed that there was a missed call from Zhong Xiaoqin on her mobile phone. The time was almost at Mrs. Wang's house. Although she hung up after two seconds, she quickly called back and apologized: "Sorry, Xiaoqin, I didn't register just now."

Before she could finish speaking, a slightly low voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Gu Jia. I'm pregnant."

Zhong Xiaoqin picked up the inspection sheet dejectedly, and said with a sad face.

"This is a good thing, why are you talking like this? The child is not Chen Yu's?" Gu Jia couldn't help laughing.

She and Zhong Xiaoqin are old classmates, and they were the best girlfriends when they were in school. Naturally, she knew that this silly and innocent girl had always been a good girl. There are no friends of the opposite sex.

"Jiajia! Why do you even say that!" Zhong Xiaoqin glared at Xizhu, and said angrily, "I will be angry if you do this!"

What does Gu Jia say has nothing to do with me? Xizhu's small aura is not small, with his arms around his shoulders, his head raised slightly, and he gave Zhong Xiaoqin a white look, **** for tat.

"Okay, don't be angry, I'm joking~" Gu Jia laughed, "Did you tell Teacher Chen?"

"Not yet, the test results just came out, so I'm a little afraid to say." Zhong Xiaoqin was defeated by Xizhu's eyes, and the frustration that even a little girl couldn't stare at made her rub the report sheet and said, "Chen Yu and I said that children are planning, and the most important thing is timing." Zhong Xiaoqin repeated what she had just said to Xizhu.

At the end of the day, he still asked the words that made Xizhu furious the most.

"Gu Jia, do you think I want it?"

If it weren't for the fact that the hospital was surrounded by people coming and going and everywhere, Xizhu wished he could turn back into an adult and give her a slap in the face.

Gu Jia's smile also disappeared, and she said seriously: "Zhong Xiaoqin, do you know that you have a problem?"

"Huh?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked suspiciously.

"You are always used to taking other people's ideas as your own. If others say they like it, you are good; if others hate it, you don't want it. But you really have to think about this matter yourself. You are the one who is pregnant now. You have to be responsible for yourself and your children." After hearing Gu Jia's series of words, Xizhu nodded again and again, and after a pause, Gu Jiayu said earnestly, "I really can't help you decide this matter."

"." Zhong Xiaoqin was silent for a moment, and said distressedly, "But I still don't know."

With a soft sigh, Xizhu stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the top of Zhong Xiaoqin's head, a hand that was obviously very small, but made Zhong Xiaoqin feel inexplicably at ease.

"Don't keep thinking about these negative things, maybe your baby will be born as good as my family's Ziyan, and as cute as Xiao Xizhu?" Gu Jia sighed softly and comforted her.

In the blink of an eye, it was night, and Zhong Xiaoqin didn't even have the mind to follow the drama. She held her mobile phone and edited a text message to Chen Yu. She deleted and deleted the four words "I'm pregnant", but failed to send the last word.

Close the phone, and see Xizhu standing by the window like a ghost, leaning on the window sill, looking at himself.

"Are you still not going to tell Chen Yu?"

Zhong Xiaoqin was silent for a moment, and hesitated, "Anyway, he will be back tomorrow. I plan to tell him in person tomorrow about such a big matter."

"During the day, you asked me if you should have this child."

The warm-colored bedside lamp made the bedroom a little dark. Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Xizhu's clear and bright eyes with distinct black and white, and felt something was wrong.

"Now, I will tell you my answer." Xizhu's originally cold eyes revealed an inexplicable emotion, intertwined with pain and hatred, which frightened Zhong Xiaoqin for a while.

A red light suddenly appeared, lighting up the entire bedroom.

In her sleep, Zhong Xiaoqin seemed to see a girl being tortured, insulted, beaten, enslaved, and trapped in a small iron cage like a livestock by someone who regarded her as her father. When she woke up, she had completely forgotten the dream of last night, only her eyes soaked in tears The pillow, and the words that echoed in her mind, were imprinted in her heart.

If you are born but don't raise, raise but don't teach, teach but don't love, then don't give birth.
