Chapter 13: Goodbye Sergei (3)
After getting off work, Yao Jingjing took off her work clothes and changed into her own clothes, she left the company with a solemn face and came to the café.
Yao Jingjing looked around and saw the old man sitting at a table in the corner, and at the same time, the old man also saw Yao Jingjing and waved his hand at her, Yao Jingjing walked over.
Seeing Yao Jingjing approaching, the old man stood up politely and said, "It's time to get off work, sit down." ”
After Yao Jingjing sat down, the waiter paced over and said, "Madam, what do you want to drink?" ”
"Let's have a latte."
"Okay, wait a minute."
When the waiter walked away, the old man was the first to speak: "The coffee here is good." ”
"You've been sitting here for a long time?"
"Yes, I've been sitting all day, and I've had several cups of coffee."
"It's not good to drink too much coffee at your age."
"I know, I'll take notice."
Yao Jingjing paused and said, "What should I call you?" ”
"My name is Sergei Sakalov, you can just call me Sergei."
"Mr. Sergey, did you come all the way from Russia to China because of me?"
"Yes, I did come for you."
"Then let's talk about it bluntly, why did you come to see me?"
The old man exhaled, paused, and said, "Miss Yao, I know that you are 30 years old this year, not married, and have a boyfriend who has been dating for many years, but he doesn't cherish you and likes someone else, so you broke up, and you are single now." ”
Yao Jingjing was stunned for a moment, and said with a little anger: "You investigate me? What right do you have to investigate me? ”
"Miss Yao, don't be angry, I know it's rude for me to investigate you privately, but I'm also here to learn more about you."
"Mr. Sergey, what exactly do you want to do? You followed me in Russia, like a pervert, but I didn't expect you to follow me to China and investigate me, what do you want from me? I don't have any money, and I don't have anything to give you. ”
"Miss Yao, don't get excited, I'm not a pervert, I promise. But I do have one thing to ask for. ”
"What's the matter? I'm an ordinary person, how can I help you? Yao Jingjing looked confused, she didn't quite believe the old man's words.
Just then, the waiter came over with coffee.
"Ma'am, here's your coffee."
"Thank you."
When the waiter walked away, the old man took out a piece of paper from the pocket of his suit, put it on the table, and said, "This is a check for 5 million, which I gave to Miss Yao." ”
Yao Jingjing was shocked, and quickly picked up the check and looked at it, the amount on it was indeed 5 million, and it was printed with the words 'Bank of China Check'.
"You, why are you giving me a check? What do you want? I can't take it, how can I take it? Such a large amount. What the hell are you doing? "How can someone give a check when they meet, and they are so generous, who dares to ask for it! Besides, there is no merit!
"Miss Yao, don't be nervous, this check is real and valid, you can go to the bank to cash it. Of course, I can't give you a check for nothing. ”
"Tell me, what the hell do you want me to do? And 5 million to buy me. ”
The old man paused and spoke slowly: "I am 65 years old, I run an oil company in Russia, my wife passed away 20 years ago, leaving three children, and now the company is managed by my eldest daughter. After my wife passed away, I didn't remarry and am now alone. When I saw Miss Yao in the Kremlin, I had the idea of remarrying. I know that Miss Yao is also unmarried, so I think I want to be able to marry Miss Yao. ”
Yao Jingjing was really shocked, she never thought that this old man would find her again and again, it turned out that he was to marry her, it was ridiculous! No surprises!
Seeing Yao Jingjing's lips slightly open and her face stunned, the old man hurriedly said, "Miss Yao, I know that I am presumptuous in this request, you should be surprised, but I mean it sincerely." This 5 million is my dowry. ”
"There's something wrong with you! How old are you, you are 35 years older than me, my dad is only 54 years old this year, you are older than my dad, why are you embarrassed to propose to me? I can be your granddaughter anymore. ”
"Love knows no age."
"You pull it down, return love, don't spoil these two words." Too angry, Yao Jingjing said Chinese directly.
The old man slowed down and continued: "Miss Yao, I understand your feelings, my age is indeed not suitable for you, but I can't control it, from the first time I saw you, I was tempted. Since my wife passed away, I thought I wouldn't be tempted anymore, but I didn't expect God to let me meet you, and I feel like I'm young again. ”
"Alas, Mr. Sergey, thank you for liking me, but we are really not suitable, the age gap is too big, I can't promise you."
"Miss Yao, you don't have to rush to refuse me. In this way, you take the check first, and you can go to the bank to inquire about it and see the authenticity of the check. Besides, Miss Yao, through the investigation, I also learned about your family background, your family's economic situation is not very good, and the three of you are still crowded into a small house, with this 5 million, you can change a big house for your parents. Also, frankly speaking, Miss Yao, your salary is not high, as far as I know, your current salary in this job has not reached 3,000, and in your situation, I am afraid that you will not be able to earn this 5 million if you work for a lifetime. With this 5 million, not only can you give your parents a bigger house and make them more comfortable, but your father doesn't have to work so hard to drive a taxi. And as far as I know, your mother has always been in poor health, and now that she is old, she will suffer from any diseases, and your family does not have enough money to support it, and your parents have not bought pension insurance and medical insurance for you to study all these years, and I am afraid that the old age life in the future will be very miserable. And you, a woman, probably can't bear this responsibility. The reason why your ex-boyfriend broke up with you has something to do with your family background and your family's financial situation. Miss Yao, I don't think you yourself can guarantee that you will find a rich husband to help you get out of your family's predicament in the future. ”
The old man's words were like steel needles piercing Yao Jingjing's heart, she took a sip of coffee, her hands trembled slightly, and her face became a little solemn. She hadn't seriously considered what the old man said, but now she suddenly heard it, and she felt very anxious. It turns out that she is in such a bad situation! Why didn't you notice it before!
Seeing this, the old man knew that his words had worked, and continued: "Miss Yao, I have a lot of assets and good health, except for being older than you, I think I am a good marriage partner in all other aspects. And after I get married, I will definitely love you well. You don't have to be in a hurry to refuse me, you take this check back, go to the bank for consultation, think about it, and we'll see you in a week. I hope that by then you will be able to accede to my request. ”
Yao Jingjing didn't reply, she was still immersed in great anxiety.
