C416 The House be Not Rent
Mother Soong took a taxi to her destination and found that it was a pretty good neighborhood, much better than the one she lived in. She thought the rent would be quite expensive.1
After asking the security guards and finding a place to stay, she went upstairs and pressed the doorbell. Soong Jia hurriedly opened the door and said, "Mom, you have to tell me in advance that I'm not prepared. Come in and rest."
"What's there to rest for? I came all the way here by car. If your dad didn't faint from the car, I would have dragged him along." Mother Soong said.
"Sitting is tiring, but you came rather early. You probably left home early. Yang Tao has already booked a restaurant. Let's go out to eat later." Soong Jia said.
Speaking of Yang Tao, Mother Soong felt a bit unhappy and said, "You're still going to eat at a restaurant? Why don't you eat at home? It's all your money that's being spent."
"How did you end up spending my money?" Soong Jia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How much did her mother think of Yang Tao?
"He just went to university and came from the countryside. How can he have money? This meal doesn't cost him a month's worth of living expenses. If it's not for you, who else would." Mother Soong said.
"Yang Tao isn't like what you said. He's rich, he …" Before Soong Jia could finish, she was interrupted by Mother Soong. "The place you're living in isn't small. How come it's over a hundred square meters?"
"Yeah, about 130 square meters." Soong Jia said.
"This rent should be quite expensive, did you share it with others?" Mother Soong said.
"No, I live by myself." Soong Jia said.
"How much does it cost to live by yourself for a month? Although our family's conditions are decent, we can't spend the money like this. We just need to rent a room." Mother Soong said.
"This one doesn't need rent, Yang Tao bought it." Soong Jia said.
"En, it's fine if it's not good for the rent, but who did you say bought it later?" Mother Soong asked.
"Yang Tao bought it." Soong Jia said.
"Daughter, I know you like this Yang Tao, but you can't speak up for him like this. He can afford this house too?" Mother Soong obviously didn't believe him.
"Really, I'm not speaking up for him. Mom, you never listen to me properly. Although Yang Tao is from the countryside, he can make a lot of money. He bought this house to let me read in peace." Soong Jia said.
"Did you get tricked by this person? Did he purposefully spend money to rent a house to trick you into saying that he bought it? He makes you feel that he's very capable and gives you a false impression that he's very profitable. You haven't even entered society yet, so you don't know the situation here." Mother Soong said.
"No, Yang Tao didn't lie to me. He really bought this house." Soong Jia was slightly unhappy.
"Alright, since that's the case, have you seen the real estate certificate? Is that his name written on it?" Mother Soong asked.
"No, it's not his name." Soong Jia blinked her eyes and said.
"What did I say? Look, daughter, why are you so confused? The real estate certificate doesn't even write his name, and you still trust him that much. Maybe he intentionally lied to you." Mother Soong said unhappily.
"He didn't lie to me because the real estate certificate didn't write his name, but my name. This house was given to me by Yang Tao." Soong Jia said playfully.
"What, the house is for you? Is that your name on the certificate? " Mother Soong asked with her eyes wide open in surprise.
"Yeah, Yang Tao bought the house for me. Of course it's written in my name." Soong Jia said.
