Chapter 141: Xia Nuannuan is moving after the exam
The next evening, Qin Tian arrived more than ten minutes earlier than agreed, and took a taxi to a well-known restaurant in Yucheng.
This restaurant mainly served local farm dishes and had a very good business; Xia Nuannuan said you usually have to book a table in advance.
Qin Tian took out his phone and sent a message to Xia Nuannuan.
The other side replied quickly, indicating they were on their way.
So, Qin Tian stood outside with his phone, browsing some financial news he had been following recently, analyzing the market through his advantage of foresight, waiting for them to arrive before going in together.
Since that time, after the first 100,000 in funds were invested in the stock market, he had invested another 200,000+ to increase his position twice in succession.
It wasn't that the first 100,000 had lost money; on the contrary, the profit was quite abundant.
It was just that with the increase in confidence, rather than letting these funds sit idle in his bank card, it was better to transfer as much as possible into his stock account to make money.
And these 200,000+ in funds, a small portion came from Wang Hao, and the rest were profits transferred from the boosting shop he partnered with Xu Hao on.
With the expansion of the boosting shop's reputation, the number of boosters and orders under Xu Hao was increasing, and naturally, both of them were earning more.
Knowing Qin Tian was short on money, Xu Hao now calculated the earnings once a week and then transferred them to him.
Nowadays, the game League of Legends was gradually becoming popular, and the boosting market was huge, but there weren't many high-tier boosters, and a large portion of them were under their boosting shop.
Therefore, they could be said to have caught up with the dividend period of this industry.
In addition, the 300,000+ in funds Qin Tian had invested in his stock account one after another had already doubled, and if he cleared all the stocks in his hand, it would be almost enough for 700,000.
He had also saved enough for the remaining investment in the internet cafe project he was cooperating with Zhao Mingyuan on.
However, since this money could stay for a few more days, he would keep it in his hand to earn money for a few more days.
"Qin Tian!"
A familiar shout came.
Qin Tian looked in the direction of the voice, only to see that black Mercedes of his future father-in-law driving over slowly.
Xia Nuannuan was sitting in the back seat, the car window had already been lowered, and she was waving at him with a radiant smile.
Outside the restaurant, the waiter responsible for guiding customers to park saw this and hurried over to welcome them.
Qin Tian put his phone back in his pocket and hurriedly walked over too.
In the passenger seat, Su Xia also lowered the car window and greeted Qin Tian with a smile.
"Little Qin, why did you come so early, how long have you been waiting?"
"No, I just arrived."
Qin Tian answered with a smile.
"You're lying, right? When Nuannuan received your message, we had just left the residential area, you must have been waiting for ten minutes, right?"
Su Xia smiled and exposed his lie.
Qin Tian scratched his head with an embarrassed smile, not saying anything.
"Blame Old Xia, I told him to leave early."
Xia Nuannuan complained helplessly.
"What are you talking about, it's not even seven o'clock yet, and we're not late!"
Old Xia defended himself with grievance while parking the car.
"Anyway, it's your fault, your fault!"
"Fine, fine, it's all my fault."
"It's true that I came a bit early."
Qin Tian smiled and took the blame very intelligently.
Amidst the laughter, his future father-in-law parked the car skillfully, closed the windows, and the family of three got out of the car.
"Little Qin, let's go in."
Su Xia greeted with a gentle smile.
Qin Tian nodded, waited for the couple to walk in front, and then followed with Xia Nuannuan.
"Qin Tian, what were you doing at home today?"
Xia Nuannuan asked with a sweet smile, hands behind her back.
"Nothing much, just watched TV, ate snacks, and took a nap for over two hours at noon."
"You're too idle, didn't you review?"
"Do I need to review?"
Qin Tian asked with a smile.
"Straight-A students are really annoying!"
Xia Nuannuan rolled her eyes.
"Please, you're considered a straight-A student now too, you're even annoying yourself."
Qin Tian said with a smile.
Xia Nuannuan was stunned, then corrected: "I'm talking about the kind who don't need to study and can easily get first place, unlike me, who still has to work hard to do problems and memorize books every day, sigh!"
"You might as well just say my name."
Qin Tian said, unable to hold back a smile.
"That's right, it's you."
"Blame me for having a good brain? Jealous, this is naked jealousy."
"Hmph, I'm not!"
Listening to the exchange between the two children behind them, Su Xia was full of smiles, turned her head to look at her husband beside her, and saw Old Xia frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Old Xia, don't cause any trouble today!"
Su Xia leaned closer to her husband and reminded him in a low voice.
"When have I ever been unreliable?"
Xia Zhengping said seriously.
"Heh, forgot about last time? Watch your words."
"I know, I know, last time was because I didn't know his family situation, I'm not that stupid!"
After entering the restaurant, led by the waiter, the group of four
Compared to the noisy main hall outside, which was already almost full of guests, the environment in this private room was naturally much better.
The private room had a large round table that could seat ten people, and under Su Xia's arrangement, the four of them sat on the side near the window.
Qin Tian sat between Xia Nuannuan and his future father-in-law, making it convenient for him to have a couple of drinks with Lao Xia.
Su Xia sat on her daughter's left side, and after taking the menu handed over by the waiter, she passed it directly to Qin Tian first.
"Xiao Qin, take a look and see what you'd like to eat. The food at this restaurant tastes pretty good."
"Alright."
Qin Tian nodded with a smile, not standing on ceremony, and began to browse through the menu.
"We used to live in that residential complex across the street. If we weren't cooking at home, we would often come here to eat."
Xia Nuannuan, who was sitting to the side, said suddenly.
"The complex across the street?"
Qin Tian was stunned for a moment.
"It was only after Nuannuan started at the Fourth Middle School that we moved over there, to make it easier for me to take care of her."
Su Xia explained with a smile.
"I see!"
Qin Tian nodded in realization, unable to help but sigh inwardly that being rich is indeed good.
Yucheng was only so big; the complex across from the restaurant wasn't actually too far from the Fourth Middle School, just about a twenty-minute bike ride away.
Moreover, school district housing near the Fourth Middle School was not cheap; how could an average family just buy it whenever they wanted?
After ordering two dishes, Qin Tian looked at Xia Nuannuan and asked, "Then after you finish the college entrance examination, are you all planning to move over there?"
"I suppose so!"
Xia Nuannuan looked at her mother with an inquiring gaze; she hadn't asked about this matter yet either.
Su Xia smiled and nodded: "We are going to move over. Nuannuan's grandparents also live in that complex!"
"They live right across from our place; my dad bought both properties together back then."
Xia Nuannuan added.
"That's great, it's lively living together."
Qin Tian smiled with a bit of envy.
Since he was little, he only had relatives on his mother's side; only his mother knew what the situation was like on his father's side.
It wasn't until after he graduated from university in his past life, during a Chinese New Year, that he heard his uncle, who had returned from doing business out of town, mention that his mother had returned to Yucheng from out of town while pregnant with him, and she had never left since then.
Because of this, his mother naturally endured plenty of gossip from the folks back home and suffered quite a bit.
Yet, his mother never explained anything. After giving birth to him, she took him and moved alone into this home in Yucheng, raising him to adulthood all by herself, a very strong person.
