Meanwhile, in the reception room, Liu's wife was trying to change her husband's mind. The number on the contract had surprised her.
"Lao Liu, this is beyond our budget. Even the smallest house in this area would cost us more than a million! You are working at a bank. We could borrow some money from it, or maybe take a look at some other property..."
Lao Liu signed his name on the contract without looking up.
"I make money for my wife and kids. This house is close to the school and my bank. I will save money on transportation and food. Besides, it's also close to your parents..."
"But..."
Liu was a man of his word. As he followed the salesman to go on with the purchase, his wife finally stopped complaining. She knew her husband was a considerate man deep down.
There were so many paths on a person's life that one could lose their way. One day though, something or somebody would remind them of what really mattered.
