Chapter 124: Weird Lan Ling

“Elder Liu, you still remember me!” Yang Ming realized that Liu Weishan recognized him and felt very happy.

“Yes, I do, I do. The last time when I went up to Tengchong, it was for a personal matter, so I didn’t meet a lot of new people. Therefore, you had a lasting impression on me!” Liu Weishan smiled, “Little kid, why did you come to Song Jiang?”

“Hehe, I am originally a Song Jiang person. I just finished my National Higher Education Entrance Examination, and preparing to further my education at Song Jiang Industry University!’ Yang Ming smiled.

“The one who’s renting the house is you?” Liu Weishan asked.

“Yeah, and my girlfriend,” said Yang Ming as he pointed at Lan Ling.

“Okay, not bad. The young lady looks rather lively.” Liu Weishan complimented as he said, “Let’s go have a seat at my home. I will go and prepare the key!”

“I say, are you both still renting the room here?” The middle-aged aunt saw how Yang Ming knew the house owner and felt somewhat dissatisfied. It seemed like her business was gone.

“Thank you, but I know him by myself, so we won’t have to trouble you!” Liu Weishan said with a sense of apology to the middle-aged aunt.

“Then let me speak of the ugly words up front first. The fifty yuan deposit that you have paid is non-refundable!” The middle-aged aunt didn’t want to give free labor.

Even though it was reasonable for him to know Liu Weishan, it wouldn’t be fair to the middle-aged aunt. Therefore, Yang Ming didn’t mind that much, just nodded his head and said, “Alright, let it be non-refundable. You also have worked hard for a long time already.”

Once the middle-aged aunt heard these words, she left feeling satisfied. She still needed one yuan to return on the bus!

“Elder Liu is a lecturer at Song Jiang University?” Yang Ming heard the middle-aged aunt mention this.

“Yeah, I teach here.” Liu Weishan said, “You went to Tengchong for a vacation?”

“Not really. My friend, Zhang Bing - him!” Yang Ming said as he pointed at Zhang Bing, “His father is a person who is in the line of business for jades and jewelry. We were in Tengchong to gamble for jades. I was only following them.”

“Hehe, so this was the case!” Liu Weishan said, “I thought you wanted to get involved in this business!”

“I will be honest. I do have this plan.” Yang Ming didn’t want to lie as well. If he could get Liu Weishan’s support, his business could grow big really quickly. “I wanted to earn a bit of pocket money while I was still studying at university.”

“Not bad. This is good thinking.” Liu Wei Shan nodded his head. “I am quite experienced in studying jades and rocks. If you have any problem, you can find me for advice.”

They followed Liu Weishan to his residence. Liu Weishan invited them into his home. Then he instructed his spouse to make some tea. Yang Ming assessed Liu Weishan’s home in detail. The house was about 150 meters square. All of the interior design was elegant, giving an antique feel.

“Which course do you plan to go for?” Liu Weishan drank a mouthful of tea and started chatting.

“I haven’t thought about it. I wanted to discuss that with my family.” Yang Ming answered.

“En, I teach history. For my profession, it’s fine if you want to be an academic. But if you want to find a career, then it could be a bit challenging!” Liu Weishan said, “It’s right to discuss with your parents for a while! How about you, young man?” Liu Weishan asked Zhang Bing.

“I plan to learn business administration. My family runs a business, therefore once I have graduated, I can help out with my family business.” Zhang Bing didn’t have much choice. Zhang Jiefang had already decided for him.

“Yup, Song Jiang University’s business course is pretty good!” Liu Weishan nodded his head, “Let’s go and have a look at your unit.”

“Liu Weishan took out his key and brought Yang Ming to the unit downstairs opposite his home.

“It’s that close!” Yang Ming felt a bit surprised.

“En, right opposite. Hai...” Liu Weishan couldn’t help but let out a sigh which baffled Yang Ming.

Once they were on the 3rd floor, Elder Liu opened the door on the left. What surprised Yang Ming was the that interior design of the house was also exquisite. Even though the style was a bit old, all of the furniture was rather new, as if no one had stayed in it before.

“That new! No one stayed in this house before?” Yang Ming felt rather strange.
