Chapter 313: You Seem to Have Misunderstood Something

The future mother-in-law and father-in-law attached great importance to the house matter, spending a few days visiting basically all the residential areas and new real estate projects near Jiang University.

After careful weighing, they preliminarily circled the three best targets. They were prepared to leave the final decision on which one to choose to Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan.

Thus, it happened to be a free afternoon, so Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan prepared to go with Su Xia to see these three houses.

Qin Tian had called his mother beforehand to ask if she wanted to come over.

But his mom refused directly, saying she was too busy at the shop to leave, and completely trusted the decision of him and his future in-laws.

After eating lunch in the cafeteria, Qin Tian drove away from the school with Xia Nuannuan and arrived at the residential area where Lao Xia was renting.

From far away, the two of them saw Su Xia already waiting at the entrance of the residential area.

Qin Tian drove the car over and stopped, and Su Xia opened the back door and got in.

"Nuannuan, Xiao Tian, have you two eaten lunch? Do you want to go eat something first?"

"Mom, we just ate very full in the cafeteria."

Xia Nuannuan turned her head to look at her mother and answered with a beaming smile.

"Auntie, haven't you eaten? Should we find a place to eat something?"

Qin Tian asked.

"If you two have eaten, then forget it. I ate breakfast at ten o'clock this morning, so I'm not hungry yet. Let's go look at the houses first!"

Su Xia said with a gentle smile.

Qin Tian nodded and didn't say anything more.

Subsequently, under Su Xia's directions, Qin Tian drove the car toward the first target.

"Mom, is Lao Xia very busy today?"

Xia Nuannuan turned her head and asked.

"Mm, a friend came to Jiangcheng, so he has to go receive him."

"Alright!"

"Xiao Tian, your mother called me this morning and said she couldn't come today, but she trusts the decision of you and me."

"Yes."

Qin Tian smiled and nodded, saying: "This National Day, I have to have a good talk with my mom. I suggested she open this clothing store with the intention of letting her be a bit more relaxed, not to let her become a workaholic."

"That's great."

Su Xia nodded in agreement with a smile.

"Nuannuan, when the time comes, go have a meal together and help me persuade her."

Qin Tian turned his head to look at Xia Nuannuan in the passenger seat and requested.

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan was stunned for a moment, looking conflicted: "Why do you want me to go?"

Qin Tian shrugged helplessly and said with a wry smile: "No choice, who told me that she might not listen to what I say, but she'll definitely listen to what you say!"

"When did that happen!"

Xia Nuannuan blushed in embarrassment.

In the back seat, Su Xia revealed a kind, motherly smile and chimed in:

"Nuannuan, since Xiao Tian said so, then you go. It's just right to go have a meal with Auntie Tang and have a good chat about your university life."

"Mom..."

Xia Nuannuan cast a shy, scolding gaze toward her mother.

"Nuannuan, please, if I persuade her by myself, she'll agree on the surface, but at most she'll rest for the few days we're at home. When we return to Jiangcheng, she'll definitely go back to how she was."

"This... alright, then I can only help put in a word; the main persuasion still has to come from you."

"That's enough."

Qin Tian nodded with a chuckle.

"Seriously."

Xia Nuannuan cast a resentful little glance at her mother again, only to see her mother's smile was bright, her eyes looking at her with gratification.

"Mom, can you stop smiling so strangely?"

"Is it strange? No, it's not!"

"Yes, very strange!"

"Oh my, don't mind such small things. Mom just feels that our Nuannuan has truly become a big girl!"

"Can you stop talking for now?"

"You won't even let Mom talk? Boo-hoo... I'll go tell your dad when I get back that you're bullying me."

Su Xia acted as if she were possessed by an actress, feigning a pitiful expression.

"Mom, stop acting."

Xia Nuannuan blushed and glanced at Qin Tian.

"It's fine, we're family."

Qin Tian grinned.

"Exactly, we're all family, what's there to be embarrassed about."

Su Xia nodded in agreement with a bright smile.

Xia Nuannuan held her forehead, rolling her eyes speechlessly.

Amidst the laughter, they soon arrived at the first target location Su Xia mentioned.

This was a new real estate project that wasn't fully built yet. The geographical location was quite good, only two bus stops away from Jiang University.

After Su Xia made a call, the three of them waited in the car for the salesperson to come over.

After only a few minutes, they saw a salesperson in a suit and leather shoes running over in a hurry.

The three of them hurriedly got out of the car.

"Ms. Su, sorry, sorry, kept you waiting."

After the salesperson ran over, he apologized repeatedly with a face full of smiles, and one could even see beads of sweat on his forehead.

"It's fine, I was the one who finished the call late; I should have called on the way here."

Su Xia waved her hand with a smile, then introduced Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan beside her.

The salesperson was secretly shocked and hurriedly took the initiative to greet the two of them.

Qin Tian took out a pack of "Huazi" cigarettes from the car and offered one to the salesperson.

The guy should have been a smoker, as he didn't refuse. He gratefully took one, but didn't light it, instead tucking it behind his ear first.

Subsequently, the three of them, led by this salesperson, headed toward the houses that Su Xia and Lao Xia had previously taken a fancy to.

Qin Tian and the salesperson walked in front, while Xia Nuannuan held her mother's arm, following a few steps behind.

This posture, with Qin Tian as the lead, made the salesperson even more astonished.

Xia Zhengping naturally had very strong connections and resources in the Jiangcheng business world.

Buying a house like this was actually just a matter of a single phone call. However, since the couple wanted to look at it themselves, the person responsible for leading them was naturally no ordinary person.

This salesperson, named Sun Yi, was currently the top salesperson in his company for several consecutive months.

In the sales industry, performance represented everything.

Therefore, although he was still very young and not considered an executive in the company, his status was solid, and he was even more valued by the company than his superiors.

Before the company sent him to serve Lao Xia and his wife, they specifically instructed him to treat them solemnly and also informed him of Lao Xia's identity and financial power.

For the past few days, he had been the one taking the couple around to look at houses, and for this reason, he had transferred some other clients to his colleagues to handle.

Because of all this, Sun Yi was even more respectful and curious about Qin Tian at this very moment.

Could this young handsome guy be a wealthy young master from some powerful family in Jiangcheng, having long ago been betrothed to the daughter of President Xia, with the two families joining forces?

That President Xia told him they were looking at two houses, but only mentioned it was an eighteenth birthday gift for his daughter and didn't specifically mention Qin Tian.

"Brother Sun, how long will it take for this project to be finished? If we decide to buy a house here, how long will it take to be delivered?"

Qin Tian asked.

"Young Master Qin, you can just call me Little Sun!"

Sun Yi said with a chuckle.

"Young Master Qin?"

Qin Tian was stunned upon hearing this, then said with some amusement: "You seem to have misunderstood something. You don't need to call me that; just call me by my name."

"Then can I call you Mr. Qin?"

Sun Yi thought he didn't like that form of address and tentatively changed his words.

He had been in this line of work for a long time and had seen many wealthy second-generation heirs and tycoons of all kinds.

He had seen plenty who liked to be low-key, or even had the little quirk of intentionally playing the pig to eat the tiger, and he could basically deal with them skillfully now.

"Um... fine!"

Qin Tian smiled and was too lazy to fuss over this small matter.

"Alright, Mr. Qin."

Sun Yi's smile became even more enthusiastic, and he began to answer his previous question.

"This project is a key project of a major brand developer, and the construction efficiency is very fast. Don't look at it like this now; it won't take long to be completely finished. I judge it should take about two more months. As for the specific delivery into your hands, that will take another three months."

"I see!" ===== CHAPTER 314 =====
