Chapter 56 Promise me, you have to believe me

So in the end, Xie Yu, of course, set off with Chu Jiao.

This task can be said to be very difficult, at least for Xie Yu.

This time it was still the car driven by Chu Jiao, and Xie Yu was sitting in the passenger seat. Along the way, Xie Yu never showed a smile on his face.

Because he knew very clearly that what Chu Jiao just said was likely to become a reality.

Think about it carefully, the matter about Xie Mo's boyfriend was very big in the entire Xie family at that time, because Xie Mo's parents firmly opposed Xie Mo's dating with a poor boy.

But later the matter was left unresolved. It seemed that everyone felt that at the speed of Xie Mo's replacement of boyfriend, she said she wanted to marry someone today, and she might find some reason to break up tomorrow, so she didn't take her words seriously. Xie Mo didn't take the initiative to mention the man's matter again. Over time, everyone forgot about this matter.

But, Xie Yu and Xie Mo drank once on the way.

That time Xie Mo got drunk, and after drinking, he uttered the truth, strangled Xie Yu's neck desperately and refused to let him go, and insisted on telling him a secret.

Xie Yu was not interested in Xie Mo's secret, but he couldn't escape, so he was forced to finish listening to the secret on the way home.

At that time, Xie Mo couldn't stand up, but she still said happily: "I tell you, I like him, I really like him very much. Although my parents don't agree, as long as he is willing to marry me, I dare to marry me at any time! What's wrong with poverty? Isn't it enough for me to have money, just be nice to me, nothing else has to do with me!"

This was the last thing Xie Mo said that night, and then she became drunk and unconscious, and began to choke and still shouted someone's name intermittently.

That name...

Xie Yu thought about it carefully and said that he was named Song Chi.

Xie Yu opened the documents and materials he prepared. The original owner of the house that was about to be demolished was Song.

He trembled his hands and continued to flip back. Sure enough, he soon saw the name Song Chi.

Even the last bit of luck could not be claimed. Xie Yu closed his eyes with his fate, feeling a little tired.

Chu Jiao noticed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xie Yu replied weakly: "I'm sure, that old man's eldest grandson is my sister's boyfriend."

Chu Jiao asked him, "Do you want to call Sister Xie Mo first?"

"Forget it, I can't stand her personality." Xie Yu shook his head, "Let's go over and see the situation first, and then decide what to do."

It took nearly an hour to drive to the demolition site of Xie's family. If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, Chu Jiao would have imagined that in the case of a wealthy residential area in front of him, the distance between it was only a few hundred meters was still a bungalow.

Xie Yu said: "Actually, this land should have been demolished long ago. It was just because there were other projects to be done before, so it has been delayed to the present."

The two walked in side by side and found the grandmother's residence in the video according to the house number provided in the information.

There was a piece of rust on the gate, and the moss had already climbed up the wall bricks with cracks, and the water left by the heavy rain at the entrance was not dry yet.

There should be only this last resident in this whole alley.

Chu Jiao walked up and knocked on the door with her hands on her own initiative, saying politely: "Is anyone at home?"

"Here you come." The old voice sounded, accompanied by a burst of coughing sounds.

The door was opened soon, and the old lady on the TV stood in front of the two of them, looking at Chu Jiao with a look of vigilance, "Who are you?"

Chu Jiao smiled politely and said, "Hello grandma, we are from the Chu Group. I want to discuss with you about demolition."

"Don't talk or talk!" Grandma's face immediately became ugly when she heard this, and she cursed with an angry local accent: "How many people have you come here? How many times do you want me to say it? I won't agree no matter what! Get out of here quickly!"

When facing the old man's attitude, Chu Jiao's smile still maintained, "Grandma, we are not here to force you, we are talking about negotiation."

After saying that, Chu Jiao pointed at Xie Yu again, "Grandma, look, that person is the person in charge of our company. He came here specifically to have a good talk with you today."

When the old man heard this, a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but his hands still tightly pulled the door from inside to prevent them from coming in.

Chu Jiao continued, "If you can convince him, we can't demolish this house,"

Hearing these two words, the old lady let go of her hand, took a step back, and said, "Come in."

Chu Jiao looked back at Xie Yu and said, "Come in."

There is a stone table in the yard, and there are three benches of different sizes next to the table. It seems that the old man and her grandchildren usually sit on it, and now the three of them sit on it separately.

The old lady looked at Xie Yu, "You are the one who is in charge, right?"

Xie Yu was stunned for a moment when the title of manager was in charge, but then he understood it immediately, so he could only nod and smiled and said, "It's me."

The old lady's eyes were still full of vigilance, and she said, "Your people have come here many times. I can hear calluses in my ears when I should say it."

Xie Yu said directly: "Grandma, please make sure you have any requirements. I can sign an additional contract with you, and you can give it to you if you don't have one. No matter where the house is or how much it costs, just say it. Let's discuss a fair price, basically...ah!"

Before Xie Yu could finish his words, Chu Jiao stepped on him under the table.

The heels of the high heels pressed directly on the toes. This feeling was something Xie Yu had never experienced before. At this moment, he covered his mouth in pain, looked at Chu Jiao incredibly, and asked with his mouth shape: "What are you doing?"

Is there anything wrong with what he said?

Chu Jiao quickly looked at the old lady, showed an apology, and said, "Grandma, he is a ignorant person, so let's talk first."

If Xie Yu had just said something, if it were another nail owner, he might have agreed directly. After all, it is quite a temptation to offer a random offer. However, it is obviously useless for an old lady who pays more attention to feelings.

The old lady's expression of disgust was even heavier and she said angrily: "I knew that you were the same. She just wanted to deceive me, the old man, to sign a contract with you. Although I am old, I am not stupid! Don't play these tricks for me!"

Chu Jiao said comfortingly, "Grandma, don't be angry first. Actually, I understand you very much. I know that this house is very important to you. It is a memory of you and your husband and son. It is also your right to stay with you. I used to live in the countryside, and my parents went to work in the city, so I grew up next to my grandparents. They all love me very much. If they are still alive, they should be about the same age as you. By the way, your grandson should be about the same age as me, right?"

Chu Jiao cleverly disconnected the topic, which also played a certain role in soothing the old man's emotions to some extent. When talking about this grandson, her expression finally softened a little, saying, "He is still in college this year and is studying at the Imperial Capital University. This child has good grades since childhood and has never made me worry. He is very sensible. If his parents die a few years later, how happy they would be to see it."

Even though Xie Mo had introduced Chu Jiao to him, Chu Jiao knew that Hang Yi and her were in the same university, but now she still had to pretend to be surprised, "Really? I am from the Imperial Capital University, I am a major in acting, where is your grandson?"

When Xie Yu heard this, he looked at Chu Jiao with confusion on his face.

Isn’t she a screenwriter? Why is she a professional acting person? Why doesn’t he know when?

The next second, Xie Yu understood Chu Jiao's thoughts, because when the old man heard Chu Jiao say this, there was obviously a hint of light in his eyes, saying, "My grandson also learned this, and I still don't understand it. But he said that he especially liked that thing, and he would make money after graduation, and he also said that I would see him on TV series in the future!"

Chu Jiao's smile on her face became even more intense, and she started chatting with the old lady in the major of performing, and then asked: "Your grandson has been admitted to school in 2018. I know that there is one of the best grades in their class and very outstanding. Even our teacher praised it, called Song..."

"Song Chi!" The old lady answered the question quickly, and the folds on her face were filled with laughter, and her face was full of pride. "That's my pun!"

Chu Jiao showed surprise just right in her eyes, and then she was replaced by admiration and began to praise Song Chi.

Xie Yu was stunned by the side and shook his head and sighed. Now he told him that Chu Jiao is really learning to perform, he probably believes that he will believe this superb and wonderful acting skills.

In order to make the scene more realistic, Chu Jiao took out her mobile phone and opened several photos from it, "Grandma, Song Chi and I have taken classes together. Look, this is what he looks like in school."

The old lady looked at the photo of her grandson and was so happy.

Seeing that the show was almost over, Chu Jiao's face showed a little hesitation, "But grandma, I don't know if there is something related to Song Chi."

The old lady felt much more friendly when she saw Chu Jiao, but she was still a little nervous when she heard this and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Our school has a training class with very strict requirements. Only the best students in each class can enter. But I heard that the only one of the 18th students was selected."

"This is a good thing."

"But Song Chi refused because he had to pay for it to go there." Chu Jiao pursed her lips, "He said that because the family conditions were hard to afford, I thought he was joking at the time, but I didn't expect..."

Before Chu Jiao finished speaking, the old lady asked anxiously: "How much does it cost?"

Chu Jiao showed a little hesitation on her face, but she still spoke, "Five hundred thousand."

This is a huge number for the old man. The old lady showed a hint of self-blame on her face and murmured: "It's all my fault, the old man is useless. Although the child has the ability, I can't support him to study."

The look of self-blame on the old man's face made Chu Jiao close her eyes, and she couldn't bear to look at it anymore. Her hands were hung beside her and she clenched her fists because of her tolerance.

Suddenly, her hand was held by the other hand, but the hand was a little stubborn, trying hard to break her five fingers away from the fist.

Xie Yu felt that he was not a smart person, but at this moment, he saw Chu Jiao's sadness.

The strength in his hands did not diminish at all until his hands were intertwined, and Chu Jiao's nails pressed against his joints.

Xie Yu felt the pain was so great, but he always felt better than Chu Jiao. Thinking of this, it seemed that it would not hurt so much.

After nearly half a minute, Chu Jiao's strength was gradually loosened, and her five fingers were a little weak. She turned to look at Xie Yu and said, "Let go."

Xie Yu smiled at her and whispered: "I'm there."

After saying this, he still did not let go, but pulled Chu Jiao's right hand back and hid it behind him, then looked at the old lady, saying, "Five hundred thousand, what's this? As long as you agree to demolish the house, we can give you two million compensation. In addition to giving your grandson teaching fees, you can also buy a new house next to your granddaughter's primary school. Not only can your grandson go to the best place to study, but it is also convenient for granddaughter to go to school."

The old man's eyes were filled with cold winter. However, his granddaughter had to get up one hour earlier than other students when he went to school, and took the bus from the starting point to the end point. Because the journey was too long, he couldn't even go home at noon.

And her grandson went to the best university and brought honor to her, which was also the expectations of her son and daughter-in-law. Since they were all admitted, they were obviously the best. They couldn't even go to any training class because their family was poor.

In the end, the old man signed the contract.

On the way back, the driver turned into Xie Yu. Chu Jiao sat in the passenger seat, staring at the scene in front of her in a daze, and she looked at the scene in front of her, and she obviously didn't feel very good.

So Xie Yu took the initiative to ask, "By the way, how did you have a photo of Song Chi, and that training class."

Chu Jiao turned her head slightly and looked at him with a plain voice, "Song Chi and I are from the same university. The performance major and opera major are originally from the same college. It just so happened that I knew his professional teacher, so I asked for a few photos and learned about his current situation. I got this information and used it."

"We have clearly achieved our goal, and grandma signed and agreed to move away, but I was not happy at all. Such methods are really despicable. In order to achieve my goal, I forced Song Chi to make a choice for his life, but why can I..."

The car stopped at the red light, and before Chu Jiao could finish her words, Xie Yu suddenly pulled her with one hand and leaned over to hug her in his arms.

His voice was hoarse and guilty, but firm, "Don't blame yourself, these are my faults, because I am not capable enough to take on all the responsibilities."

"I promise you that I will fight for this life to support Xie's family, and I will never let you suffer any grievances, nor will you let you do anything against your wishes for me and Xie's family."
