Chapter 1508: Chapter 1510
Zhao Guangran, despite being busy in Japan, never forgets to call back every few days.
Besides asking about how Zhao Xuran and the rest are doing in the United States, he talks about his own achievements in Japan.
Zhao Xuran is not surprised at all by these things his brother always mentions during calls, and he goes through them routinely.
Of course, he doesn’t forget to share Gong Ruini’s recent good news with Zhao Guangran.
Before, Zhao Guangran would have been absolutely delighted by such great news, but for some reason, Zhao Xuran doesn’t sense his happiness this time.
What’s the problem? Isn’t it said that things are going well on the Japan side and that it’s basically in the final stages, just waiting to collect the money and return to the United States?
Zhao Guangran’s response is that there’s nothing wrong.
Of course, Zhao Xuran doesn’t believe this answer, but since Zhao Guangran insists on saying so, he can only helplessly drop the matter.
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Guangran feels a bit helpless, as he really doesn’t know how to respond.
Could it be that his friend, who’s attracted to Wan Yihui, is into the same sex?
Should he let his elder brother ask if Xiao Hui is willing to accept the same sex?
Just thinking about this question, Zhao Guangran really doesn’t know how to bring it up; how could a well-to-do heir of the Wan Family accept someone of the same sex?
Not to mention how the Wan Family would erupt, absolutely chasing him to the ends of the earth.
What, what did you say, you said Wan Qiweng mentioned that Wan Yihui won’t inherit the Wan Family’s businesses? How is that possible?
Things like this end up being just the mother and son having a falling out, which fundamentally doesn’t mean anything.
After the call, Zhao Xuran says, “That whimsical boy.”
“What’s up?” Gong Ruini feels incredibly happy after hearing the good news, naturally thinking it’s worth celebrating.
After sharing this good news with the family, Gong Ruini thought she had to have a big feast to celebrate, so she went to the kitchen and made a huge bowl of fruit salad.
It’s not that she didn’t want to prepare something delicious, but if she really planned to go all out and make something nice, someone would definitely pop up right away.
“You.” When he saw his wife carrying a big bowl out, Zhao Xuran got a bit nervous, fearing that she had been up to something in the kitchen again.
He peeked to find it was just a fruit salad and let out a long sigh of relief.
“I just feel like Zhao Guangran is acting weird. Clearly, there’s something he wants to tell me, yet when I ask, he says there’s no issue.”
“Maybe he’s taken a liking to some girl in Japan recently, seeing how well business is going and waiting for the final deal before leaving.”
Even if the last bit of money isn’t secured, this trip to Japan has still been incredibly profitable, what’s there to worry about?
“Maybe.” Zhao Xuran tried to think about it but couldn’t figure out why his little brother was bothered recently, but it seems like it’s within his control.
“Mom just told me if we should consider changing to a different doctor.” Although Zhao Xuran didn’t think it necessary, his own mother made a good point.
Even his mother said that if she were the patient, she would be tempted – sometimes, even if certain research can’t be made public, there’s no harm in covert research.
“The best solution would be to switch to a more reputable hospital.” Zhao Xuran added.
Switch hospitals? Isn’t the current hospital pretty good? Gong Ruini couldn’t understand why there was a need to change hospitals, but since Zhao Xuran said it was Zhan Jing’s suggestion, she had no objections.
Moreover, Gong Ruini remembered that as they were leaving, she caught a glimpse of a certain doctor’s greedy look just before he turned away.
“Switch to a better one, not too concerned with fame.” Initially, it was all about the doctor’s reputation, assuming that with great fame and a vast array of patients, a tailored treatment plan could be devised based on her condition.
This matter must be considered by Zhao Xuran; making the same mistake once is enough, it can’t happen again.
Last time they asked Zhao Guangran to help find a doctor, thinking they wouldn’t need to trouble him again, yet surprisingly, this issue got resolved quickly.
“Find a good obstetrician, my classmate’s mother.” Gong Ruzhi claimed it was unnecessary to bother Zhao Guangran in Japan when he could settle it himself.
Does this guy even know their standards for finding a doctor? It’s not just any ordinary obstetrician but someone with good professional skills.
Regarding this, Gong Ruzhi guaranteed strongly, “All those with some status on the Upper East Side get treated by Julie’s mother.”
“Her professional ability is definitely good.”
Since it was a strong recommendation from Gong Ruzhi, Zhao Xuran thought he should give the lad who cares about his sister a chance.
“Don’t worry, I’ll gather the necessary information by tomorrow.” Gong Ruzhi assured he’d complete the task on time.
Throughout the whole process, Wan Yihui was quietly studying the book in his hand, which Gong Ruini assumed was related to architecture.
Ever since this guy firmly decided on his future major, he truly dedicated himself to it wholeheartedly.
“What’s this?” Gong Ruini peeked and saw densely packed words, then looked again, “Which university’s introduction is this?”
“Cornell University.” After saying this, Wan Yihui looked back down to continue reading.
“Cornell University?” Gong Ruini only vaguely knew about this university but wasn’t too knowledgeable.
“Yeah, an Ivy League University.”
Wow, Gong Ruini exclaimed, seeing that Wan Yihui set an ambitious goal, but thinking about it, it wasn’t too big of a deal.
With his good grades, as long as he improves his English skills, getting into such a university shouldn’t be a problem.
But the key issue is, “Why do you want to attend this university?”
“Its undergraduate architecture program is ranked number one in the US, and the school is located in New York State.”
This is why Wan Yihui chose this university; it’s close to home, and there’s someone to rely on if issues arise.
At the moment, Wan Yihui forgot that Gong Ruzhi would attend Stanford University; he just thought about staying close to Gong Ruzhi in the future.
“That’s not bad.” Zhao Xuran didn’t care where the university was, as long as it was an Ivy League institution.
And it wasn’t aimlessly chasing the prestige of a big-name university but genuinely researching the university’s details.
“Then study hard, and if you get into university, your brother-in-law will gift you a DSLR.” Studying architecture is essentially high-level photography.
You often need to go out in search of inspiration, and besides remembering things, you also need a camera to capture them.
Wow, how generous, Gong Ruzhi unreservedly exclaimed in surprise, “What will you reward me with if I get into a university?”
“How about I get you a second-hand car?” Originally intending to say a new car, but he changed it to a second-hand car at the last moment.
Freshmen ought to keep a low profile and not be too flamboyant.
Offering a car, Gong Ruzhi felt satisfied, knowing it would make moving around a lot easier while studying at university.
But the key issue is why it must be a second-hand car, “Isn’t this too demeaning?”
After all, he’s someone with a bit of prestige; although he can’t compare to his brother-in-law financially, at least he should have the stature to own a brand-new car.
Downcast? “Do you plan to drive a sports car, showing off in school?”
“Well…” If possible, Gong Ruzhi states, driving a sports car and enjoying the envious gazes of pretty girls would be awesome.
“Just keep it stable; look at Guang Ran, making money in university, yet he still drives a second-hand car.” Zhao Xuran doesn’t go into the dark sides of the story and just cites Guang Ran’s low-key car as an example.
Alright, bringing up Zhao Guangran, Gong Ruzhi instantly understands, knowing if he disagrees, he might not get even a second-hand car.
“Moreover, driving such an eye-catching car as a freshman, do you think you’d lead a peaceful life?” Zhao Xuran indicates that he really worries for this future overly flamboyant brother-in-law.
