Game Of Thrones : Merchant of Two Worlds

since our last chat, I've been unsure how to provoke this young lady, so I've ignored him for a long time.

Jason Liu was a bit surprised to receive a message this time.

Jason Liu: Yes, I'm going to find an agency to register tomorrow!

Lin Xiaohan: Didn't you say your business isn't doing well this year? Aren't you afraid of losing money?

Jason Liu: No!

Lin Xiaohan: Are you sure?

Jason Liu: Of course!

Lin Xiaohan: Do you need help with a loan? I work at the Bank of China in Zheng City! If you need help, you can come to me!

Jason Liu: No, I have enough money!

Lin Xiaohan: Wow, you're really doing well! After buying a sports car, you still have money left…

Jason Liu: Not just a sports car, but also a villa.

After that, Jason Liu took a few pictures of his luxurious living room and sent them.

Lin Xiaohan: Amazing! Jason Liu, you really hit the jackpot!

Jason Liu: Hehe, just earned a little!

Lin Xiaohan: That's an understatement! I bet the villa and the sports car cost millions, right? Which bank did you borrow from? If you'd told me earlier, I could have helped you get a better interest rate at our bank!

Jason Liu: No loan, I paid in full.

Lin Xiaohan: Wow!

Lin Xiaohan, who had just come home from work and was eating fruit in her living room, couldn't help but sigh when she saw Jason Liu's message.

This guy is really different. She graduated two years ago and is still a bank clerk, while he already owns a luxury car and a mansion. He's even about to start his own company and become the boss!

Lin Xiaohan: If you ever need help in the future, feel free to ask! I can't talk to you anymore; it's really shocking! If our classmates found out, many would be so envious!

Jason Liu: Alright, okay.

As soon as his chat with Lin Xiaohan ended, his mother called.

"Jason, is that car you posted on Moments really yours?"

As soon as Mama Liu answered the phone, she immediately asked, her voice anxious, "What are you doing now? How did you afford a car like that? I just spoke with your sister, and she said it's a really expensive car. How did you get so much money?"

Jason Liu felt a headache coming on and didn't know how to explain.

Fortunately, Mama Liu didn't know that he not only bought a car but also a villa; otherwise, she would worry even more.

"Mom, don't worry. I haven't done anything bad; I earned all this money!"

Jason Liu tried to reassure his mother, but he was thinking about how to explain. "A while ago, I accidentally bought an antique vase. I didn't expect it to be real, and I sold it for a lot of money—millions! So, I bought this car!"

He knew antiques could be very valuable, and he thought this explanation would work well with his parents.

"An antique? Really? You're so lucky!"

Sure enough, Mama Liu felt much more at ease. There were plenty of news stories about antiques selling for sky-high prices, and even the neighbors in their village knew they were valuable.

Jason Liu could tell his dad was nearby because he heard Mama Liu relay his explanation.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything illegal! The money I earned is legitimate!" Jason Liu almost patted his chest and promised, "I'll transfer 1 million to you later. You and Dad don't have to worry about me!"

"—Huh? One million?"

Mama Liu was shocked. "No, don't transfer that much! We don't need so much money. Besides, we still have the 100,000 you sent last time! You should keep that to buy a house in Zheng City, find a girlfriend, and bring her home for the New Year. Your dad and I will be relieved!"

Jason Liu couldn't help but laugh and cry. How could he explain that he wasn't even close to marrying anyone?

In rural areas, people tend to marry younger than in the cities, so Liu's parents were eager to see him settle down. They noticed that many young men in their village were already marrying and having children around Jason's age. It was no surprise they felt a sense of urgency.

Regardless, Mama Liu would keep pushing her son to find a partner. She believed she was healthy enough to help with grandchildren for a few more years.

Although his sister, had two kids, the grandchildren weren't part of the Liu family tree because they carried their father's surname.

In Jason Liu's hometown, only kids born to their sons were considered part of the family, while daughters belonged to their husbands' families.

This was an old tradition!

Her sisters husband Lucas, is a civil servant in Chuanbei District. Though his salary isn't high, he enjoys good benefits.

Their parents are retired officials who receive pensions, so they don't have to worry about their daughter and son-in-law. They can also help take care of their two kids.

In fact, the couple's 140-square-meter home with three bedrooms and two living rooms, bought two years ago, was made possible by a down payment from Lucas's parents.

Since Lucas is just a minor civil servant, he struggles to support two children while managing a mortgage and other expenses.

After getting married, Liu Wan became a stay-at-home mom, caring for their two children and managing household chores.

At only 26, she is already a mother of two and no longer the young, cheerful girl she used to be.

Liu's mother mentioned that her sister's in-laws still looked down on her for being incompetent.

The two old folks, who consider themselves important figures, often belittled her family from the countryside.

That's why, aside from the first year of her marriage, when they visited for the New Year, her husband rarely goes to their house anymore.

He also avoided seeing his in-laws' snobbish attitudes.

Even in college, he refused to take money from his sister, preferring to work part-time to support himself.

Eventually, when he needed money for tuition, their parents borrowed 10,000 yuan from Liu Wan.

But where would Liu Wan get that kind of money?

The 10,000 must have come from her in-laws.

Despite having harvested their wheat and made money from it, they quickly repaid that 10,000 yuan.

However, all these issues created tension between jasons sister and her in-laws.

Her husband was their only child and felt overshadowed by his parents' strong personalities, making him feel submissive.

With his parents' financial support for their house, the young couple felt even more pressured.

They could only keep their heads down every day.

And that's the story of this little couple.
