The next day, on his way to the company, Lu Liang checked the messages he had received on WeChat yesterday.
His parents and elder sister had sent him red envelopes for his birthday and instructed him not to work too hard. He should remember to cook himself a bowl of noodles with an egg.
Eating egg noodles on one's birthday is a tradition in his hometown. It symbolizes a safe and fulfilling year ahead.
Lu Ya also sent him the details of the new house's renovation, including the main construction, decorations, furniture, and appliance purchases, totaling $2,452,500. Each expense was traceable.
Lu Liang had transferred money to her in five installments, totaling $2,600,000. Currently, $147,500 remained, not a penny less.
Lu Ya said, "Send me your card number, and I'll transfer it to you. The housewarming party for the new place is on the eighth; do you want to come back?"
"The eighth is the 23rd, right? I'll see then. Just give the remaining money to mom and dad."
