4722 Never Too Late to Love (129)
Gu Chengze nodded, but went straight to the point. “Will you and Dad sponsor it?”
Chu He was caught off guard. It turned out this was the whole point of the conversation! “Sponsor?”
Gu Chengze said helplessly, “All the money I’ve earned since my graduation isn’t enough for a wedding. Renovating the house alone is a strain.”
The woman asked coolly, “What about your salary? I remember there are bonuses at the middle and end of the year.”
!!“Yes, there are…” Gu Chengze said, “I’ve bought an apartment and invested in it. If I took out the money in my capital chain and cut off my capital chain, I’d have made a profit for nothing in the past few years.”
“Mmm.” Chu He asked again, “I remember that Yun Tianyou gave you a house?”
“… Half-gave.” Gu Chengze complained, “Fortunately, I got married first. Otherwise, if he had been the one to get married first, I’d have to borrow my gift money.”
“Borrow…” Chu He’s eyes lit up and she quickly said, “Sponsors.h.i.+p won’t do, but I can lend you the cost of the wedding. Besides, I can also discuss with your father to see if the interest can be lowered.”
Gu Chengze asked, “How much is the interest?”
“It won’t exceed one per cent of your annual income.”
“That’s high!” Gu Chengze protested, “Bank loans only charge 6.9 per cent!”
“Take it or leave it.”
“Okay, okay, okay…” Gu Chengze braced himself. “I’ll take it.”
“Just write the IOU and give it to your dad.”
…
Gu Chengze went upstairs and entered the study room, preparing to write an IOU.
Before writing it, he naturally had to consider how much the wedding budget was.
First of all, they had a marital home, which they naturally had to renovate. It was a huge house and would cost at least 500,000 to 600,000 yuan.
After that, there were invitations and wedding candies. There were so many people in the Gu family. Although this would be a Western-style wedding, it would be best to choose a church venue that had a large lawn and garden. It would cost two to three hundred thousand yuan including the buffet and decorations.
These were actually small costs. The big ticket item would be the budget for the wedding vacation. Although it was not a round-the-world tour, it was best to prepare sufficient funds for a month of travel.
Bai Sheng said that she wanted a seaside holiday. In that case, the best-known holiday destinations would definitely be the Maldives and Sri Lanka. They could also go to Saipan.
Staying at a 7-star island in the Maldives alone would cost about 50,000 to 60,000 yuan per person per week, not including other expenses.
In addition to these coastal countries, there were also many other options. For example, Paris, France, is the dream of many girls.
Louvre, Paris, Provence…
Since they had decided for a wedding vacation, they should have fun and not leave any room for regrets.
That added up to over a million.
In the end, to err on the side of caution, he wrote a five-million-yuan IOU and went to look for Gu Jinglian.
The moment the man looked at the IOU, his eyelids twitched violently.
“Five million?” Chu He had mentioned this matter to him before. However, five million yuan was much more than he expected.
“A 1 per cent interest has been agreed on, and I’ll pay off the debt in two years.”
“Five million, two years?”
Gu Jinglian raised an eyebrow at him. “Are you sure you’ll be able to do it?”
“Dad, you’re such an unmerciful person that if I can’t pay you back, I’m sure you’ll kick me out.”
