FSC [QT] Chapter 139.1

“Mom, how much money do you have? I’ve picked an investment project with great prospects.”

Downstairs in Building 2 of the boys’ dormitory, a tall and handsome young man was standing by the flower bed, talking on the phone in a low voice.

This young man is Lu Wenyuan.

“Mom doesn’t have much money, Wenyuan. Is the investment project you mentioned reliable?”

Lu Wenyuan’s mother, Xi Xiulian, was helping to deal with the mess after the banquet in a villa, so although it was almost eleven o’clock in the evening, she had not gone home to rest.

When she received a call from her son, Xi Xiulian put down her work and ran to the quiet place of the toilet to answer the call.

Ever since her husband cheated on her and divorced her, Xi Xiulian’s temperament had become a little gloomy and paranoid.

Not only had she closed her social circle, but she also regarded her son given by the court as her own property, fearing that if she didn’t pay attention, her son would no longer belong to her like her husband who was coaxed away by a little goblin.

Therefore, in the second year after Lu Wenyuan was admitted to the university, Xi Xiulian could not stand the life of being separated from her son, so she traveled thousands of miles to Beijing and continued to work as a domestic nanny to earn daily expenses of mother and son.

In the beginning, Xi Xiulian wanted her son to live with her, but the rent in Beijing was too high.

The house in the North Fifth Ring Road that Xi Xiulian rented for 1,200 yuan was just a small single room that was so simple. It was simply not enough to accommodate two adults, mother and son.

If the rent was any higher, Xi Xiulian would not be able to afford it.

Therefore, although Xi Xiulian moved to Beijing now, Lu Wenyuan was still a boarding student.

It was just because they were close, Xi Xiulian would often make some dishes that her son liked to eat and send them to school, or wait for her son to have no classes and return to the rental house for a short reunion, which finally eased Xi Xiulian’s longing for her son.

“There is no more reliable investment than this one. I am sure I can get a 150% return rate within three months.”

Lu Wenyuan studied financial management. As a student who received scholarships every year and was highly praised by teachers, he was indeed quite capable.

Unfortunately, his birth hindered his progress. He found business opportunities several times, but because of insufficient capital, he achieved little success.

Several setbacks eroded Lu Wenyuan’s self-esteem. He realized that sometimes, one had to take shortcuts in life.

“I still have more than 70,000 yuan on hand, but the starting capital for this project is at least 300,000 yuan. Mom, do you have money? Just think of it as borrowing from you.”

Lu Wenyuan’s goal has always been clear. He didn’t want to go back to that secluded small town and listen to the ridicule of people around him about his broken family. He wanted to stay in the big city and become a superior person.

So, from the day he arrived in Beijing, everything he did was purposeful.

Apart from his character, Lu Wenyuan was indeed a man with strong self-control. Since the beginning of his freshman year, he had been working as a tutor while balancing study and socializing.

The scholarship from the school could meet the expenses of tuition and living expenses, and the money saved from part-time work in college was his future start-up capital.

In his senior year, Lu Wenyuan already saved nearly 150,000 yuan through part-time jobs and investments, but part of the money was stuck in the stock market and could not be moved. Now he could only mobilize more than 70,000 yuan.

“What’s mine is yours. Why would you talk about borrowing or not borrowing money from Mom?”

Xi Xiulian has always been proud of having such an excellent son.

After listening to her son’s explanation, she no longer had any hesitation. However, more than 200,000 yuan was indeed not a small number for her.

When she divorced, although the man cheated on her, Xi Xiulian still didn’t get much property.

It was just an old apartment in her hometown with an area of ​​only more than 60 square meters. This place was in a remote location.

Housing prices have been soaring elsewhere in recent years. The price of newly opened buildings in their place was only 3,000 to 4,000 yuan per square meter. Even if she sold the old apartment, it would only cost less than 200,000 yuan.

But Xi Xiulian was reluctant to sell the house. For her, it was the root of her and her son. In the future, her son would marry a bride in that old house.

In addition to the house, the biggest part of Xi Xiulian’s money was the more than 100,000 yuan deposited in the bank.

Before, she worked as a nanny in her hometown. Her monthly salary was not high. After coming to Beijing, her salary increased, but the expenses also increased.

For a woman with no great ability, it was not easy to have more than 100,000 yuan in savings.

Now her son asked for 300,000 yuan. Apart from his own 70,000 yuan in savings, Xi Xiulian had to pay her son a difference of 230,000 yuan. But even if she emptied all her savings, she couldn’t make 230,000 yuan.
