Chapter 98:

There was a rare silence between the three of us.

I don’t know cars, Huang Xiuwen doesn’t have a car, and the boss doesn’t love cars. The greeting of his new car couldn’t go on even more. As soon as “Puja” came out, tens of thousands of horses, what else can I say? Besides, this is obviously a toy, and its symbolic meaning is far greater than its practical value. It will be his wife who will drive it in the future.

Female executives who work in the oil industry drive muscle cars. Thinking about it, they are still very impactful, both glamorous and aggressive. My thoughts diverged for a while. What impressions would others have of Miss Pan De and her car?

Only the sister-in-law was cracking and typing at the table next door, trying to turn the tide. Today she is in a state of desperation and can’t save us.

Lao Huang suddenly said, it can be described as a magical pen: “Recently we are looking at houses. HDB flats in good districts are too expensive. The difference of about 200,000 yuan made me start thinking about apartments.”

I was relieved: “Where are you going to buy it?”

Lao Huang said, “You can do all the communities in the east that are close to the subway. I also watched the circle where you were… When will your housewarming party be held? I want to see the room type.”

“You can come anytime.” He touched my pain point. “I don’t know about the party. Now the number of parties is limited, and it is difficult to determine the scale. On the other hand, the home furnishing work has not been completed yet. Rudra, will you come by then?”

The boss threw a ball on the lawn, and Chihuahua immediately ran over: “I guess you will call a lot of colleagues?”

“Yeah.” My answer was a little quiet.

“Maybe next time.” The boss stood up, “For more personal occasions or something. My current identity is not appropriate after all.”

“At least you were the first to jump out of the fire pit.” I shrugged.

“How much is your apartment?”

“Almost 1.1 million,” I said, “but not including home appliances and basic furniture. In addition, the texture of the floor is a bit vulgar. You may also need to consider the cost of replacing the floor.”

Old Huang closed his eyes: “We won’t replace a floor just because it’s vulgar, Yao.”

I rolled my eyes.

“Do you plan to change to a bigger house?” the boss asked.

Old Huang nodded: “The two boys are old. I hope to provide them with separate bedrooms and a study room. Our family does not have a plan to hire a domestic servant. The house with a servant’s room only Being able to be used as a utility room feels like a waste of my money.”

“Have you considered landed houses?”

Lao Huang and I took a breath at the same time.

“It’s not that expensive!” His poker face was a little loose, adding, “This house was bought before the crab shells went on the market.”

My sister-in-law’s work seems to have finally come to an end. She nodded at me and stood over to gather with us.

Old Huang shook his head firmly, but I was a little interested. After thinking about it, he said, “Seven million?”

The boss shook his head: “Guess it lower.”

The sister-in-law asked: “Six million?”

The boss smiled slightly: “Lower.”

I glanced at Lao Huang. The boss lives in Bukit Timah-the status is probably equivalent to Victoria Peak or something-although foreigners can’t buy it, but there are only one or two good places in Singapore, and the local rich people gather together. To settle in this area, the land price is not low.

I don’t guess anymore. The sister-in-law may still want to guess, but she is not so familiar with the boss, and she doesn’t speak anymore.

Old Huang scratched the bridge of his nose: “Let us be surprised.”

The old man’s beard moved: “More than four million.”

“Impossible.” Old Huang said immediately. “The townhouses here are almost four million.”

“Hmm…” The boss pinched the gap about the width of a coin with two fingers. “Maybe a little extra cost. We bought the house and demolished it. The reconstruction cost another million or so.”

What might he have misunderstood about “a little bit”.

“Is it a permanent lease?” I asked, and when he nodded, I said, “That’s still worth it. Such an investment opportunity requires good luck to come across.”

“Now there is good luck in front of you.” The boss said, “We have a neighbor who is selling his house, which is about the same size as ours. The house is very new and the price is 5.7 million. Interested?”

My expression must be very meaningful: “Rudra, this is the first time I know you look at me so highly.”

“Edit the text?”

Lao Huang looked at his wife: “Do you think it is possible for family members to support us?”

“It’s possible for five hundred and seventy yuan,” the sister-in-law said.

A few of us laughed.

“I know who can afford it.” Lao Huang recovered from the laughter first and looked at me. “Guess first. One person, one chance. You don’t need to accompany the children later.”

“I like to play with the children.” The boss frowned slightly.

Old Huang endured: “You are right, Rudra. If you guess right, I will help you wash the car.”

I wanted to laugh but didn’t dare. I thought about it for a while, rescued Lao Huang, and said, “Isn’t the old employee right? I guess Kevin.”

Not to mention passive income, it shouldn’t be a big problem for Kevin’s current salary to buy a house for 5.7 million with a loan.

The boss squinted his eyes: “Well… If you only consider salary, I find it difficult to tell.”

I froze for a moment: “Really?”

Although stocks are indeed the major part of salary, the salary of our department director is so low?

The boss looked at me profoundly and said: “But if he also changes to Superman at the same level, I will say that you have won early.”

Lao Huang looked at his sister-in-law and asked, “Do you want to guess?”

“I won’t be with the child later.” The sister-in-law pointed to the computer.

Hearing the answer, Lao Huang glanced at me.

…Is a set.

This grandson!

“Rudra?” He got a bargain and still behaved, and looked at the boss with a grin.

“Anyone in the company?”

“Not necessarily.” Old Huang said, “As long as it’s in our building.”

I immediately interrupted: “You didn’t tell me this condition just now! It doesn’t count!”

“You didn’t ask just now.” Old Huang refused to give up.

The boss is clearly confident. Hearing this range, he almost immediately made a guess: “Sonia can definitely afford it.”

Suddenly hearing Miss Pan De’s name, my eyelids twitched, as if something had entered. Seeing me, my sister-in-law blinked and pulled me aside to help me blow.

They didn’t delay. Old Huang said quickly: “That’s right! Yao is responsible for playing with the children in the afternoon.”

I thanked my sister-in-law in a low voice, looked at Lao Huang, with no good expressions, and just said: “Why is she the correct answer?”

Old Huang made a fuss: “Have you not noticed what car she drives?”

“Maybe it’s from the company.” I sneered casually.

“…What company equates partners with such luxury cars?”

“Tax avoidance? It can be depreciated every year if it is registered as company assets.” I confessed, “And this should be her first year as a partner. I even suspect that this project of our company is her receiving the head. A project. Before that, Sonia’s salary shouldn’t be able to afford such a good car, right?”

Lao Huang squinted his eyes: “hypocritical.”

The boss even echoed: “Innocent.”

I feel weird: “What!”

“You never thought about how she became a partner when she was so young?” Old Huang clasped his arms, “I’m not questioning Sania’s ability to work. We can all see her strength. The problem is that promotion is such a thing. It’s very luck.”

“Yes,” the boss said with a sneer, “Now that I have resigned from Crab Shell, I have finally created a chance for you to be promoted.”

I didn’t go along with their joke: “Do you mean she used any other means?”

My sister-in-law glanced at me unexpectedly, came over with two new cans of drinks, and handed them to me and the boss respectively. She didn’t say a word during the whole process, nor did she make any eye contact with Lao Huang.

I thanked him, but stared at him. Lao Huang froze for a moment. We usually talk less mercilessly, but I still rarely have such a straight face. He may be taken aback. However, Huang immediately said: “I am not referring to sex/trading.”

When he said that word, there was a strange silence between the other three of us. It’s as if Lao Huang mentioned something “don’t say” name taboo.

But he didn’t realize it himself, and continued: “If sex/trading is really useful, the lubricant and the little blue film should be out of stock.”

The sister-in-law gasped.

The boss’s poker face is more poker, I quickly patted Lao Huang: “The kids are in the room, Xiuwen, they may come over to meet us at any time.”

He finally felt a little embarrassed afterwards. It may be that our embarrassment overflowed from the goose bumps, and then drove the air bubbles to his face. Lao Huang said: “In short-my point is that she should come from a very powerful family. For example, the crab shell project may have been introduced by the elders of the family.”

The boss silently agreed, and said: “There is such a possibility, but she is not a local Indian. I think it is more proficient in business ability, plus good luck from heaven… By the way. Have you heard that, Yao Sonia is not even a business background.”

I nodded, still thinking about Old Huang’s guess. Indeed, I have thought about this issue before. Given her working years, excellence and luck, she has a chance to become a project manager.

But it is impossible to leap to the partner without the resources behind.

The question is, is this inferred just by relying on a car? I looked at Lao Huang.

“You really don’t admit defeat.” Lao Huang understood the look in my eyes in an instant, “Well, I think there is evidence that she can afford it. Do you know where she lives?”

I probably said a range: “She mentioned it when we ate together before.”

Lao Huang followed the temptation: “And what are the prices of apartments in that area?”

“Well, for a normal size, three or four million is definitely there. That area is not in my hunting area. I didn’t pay attention to it when I bought a house.” I said. I estimate that Miss Pande’s apartment is not twice this number and she can’t afford to buy it-so thinking that she is indeed very rich, a penthouse of seven or eight million dollars, it seems impossible to say that the family did not help pay the bills.

Lao Huang and the boss looked at each other, shook their heads slightly, and laughed. He directly reported the name of the apartment where Miss Pan De was located.

“And I heard that she lives on the top floor.” Lao Huang said with an expression of “You are determined to lose”, “The top floor mansion over there has not been sold for less than 17 million.”
