Chapter 2 A Bold Choice
"We're about to go register, so give me a definite answer whether it's possible or not!" Wang Qian glared impatiently, her temper rising instantly: "If it's not possible, then we'll just assume that our Linlin is blind and that you've wasted two years!"
"I……"
At this dilemma, a strange voice suddenly sounded in Zhang Han's mind:
“Ding Dong.”
"The host has been detected to have difficulty making choices, and the super selection system is being activated!"
Soon, a blue virtual template with a sense of technology appeared in front of Zhang Han.
[Choice 1: Agree to Cao Lin's family's conditions and go to the real estate center to register Cao Fei's name. Reward: 1 Mud Pill.]
[Choice 2: Pretend to be polite, say you will consider it, but secretly register the property under your own name. Reward: 1 muscle-building pill.]
[Choice 3: Going too far, reject Cao Lin's family's offer and angrily confront Wang Qian. Reward: 1 Comprehension Card.]
【Warning 1: Changes are not allowed after selection. 】
[Warning 2: The host must make a choice within 10 seconds, otherwise the system will select randomly. ]
【Countdown starts: 10. 】

…
Oh shit!
Zhang Han never dreamed that he would be blessed with the system. He didn't know if it was a blessing brought by reading too many online novels.
At that moment, all thoughts about his mother-in-law and brother-in-law were thrown out of his mind, and the only thing left in front of him was the virtual panel flashing with blue light.
Obviously, if you choose 1 among these 3 options, what does it mean to reward the mud pill?
Can't support the wall with mud?
No time to figure it out, just pass it first!
Option 2 is relatively mediocre, but if you choose it, there will probably be countless hidden troubles, so I’ll pass it!
Option 3 is to directly break up with the other party, but the other party also put forward unreasonable conditions first. In addition, the reward of option 3 is obviously much more noble than that muscle-building pill.

…
“I choose 3!”
Zhang Han made a decisive decision.
The time has come for things to come. During the two years of dating Cao Lin, all the scenes of exploitation he had inflicted on him by her family gradually came to his mind. Moreover, even after things had come to this point today, Linlin didn't seem to help him, but kept speaking for her family. Did she think she was a Bodhisattva who would grant any wish?
No matter what, you should be tough this time!
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Comprehension Card. ]
[The reward has been deposited into the system space. ]
After receiving the system prompt and being told that the choice could not be changed, Zhang Han seemed to have taken a reassurance pill. He cleared his throat and replied firmly: "Aunt, I cannot agree to this condition no matter what!"
"Are you sure you don't agree? Boy, the men pursuing my Linlin can line up in a street. With your family's conditions, you're just a country bumpkin. Just marry yourself in the future!" Wang Qian stood up with her eyes wide open and said angrily.
"Aunt, no matter how poor my conditions are, at least I am sincere! In the past two years, I have never asked Linlin to spend a penny on food, clothing, housing, transportation, or buying jewelry, necklaces and bags, and I have always been polite when she comes to my house during the holidays. The bulk of this house was paid for by grandma. It was bought for me with her life's hard work. There is no way I will register it under someone else's name!" Zhang Han said righteously.
Cao Fei curled his lips and said with disdain: "It's all my life's work! I only have 80 square meters of my life's work. How dare you say that! Country people are country people. Last time I went to your rental house, the old woman was still collecting water drop by drop in the bathroom to flush the toilet. You are not ashamed! Anyway, you have got the money, so send her back to the countryside. It's not right for a young couple to have an old woman in the middle..."
"Snapped!"
Zhang Han originally just wanted to complete the task, but after hearing what Cao Fei said, he was completely annoyed, "The money to buy the house was saved bit by bit by my grandma! Our family is used to being poor, and we are indeed not as rich as you. But don't forget that your father was sick at the beginning of the year, and the 30,000 yuan for treatment was borrowed from me, and it hasn't been paid back yet! And you work in a KTV, and you blow it loudly all day long, but it's been so long, have your rich second-generation buddies ever helped you when you were in trouble? If they did, they would help you buy a house quickly, not to mention a villa, just help you buy a small house of 60 square meters, or even help you buy a car worth tens of thousands of dollars. Come on, let me see the generosity of your rich circle!"
The quarrel between several people gradually attracted the attention of many people in the restaurant.
Especially for those who are close, the look in their eyes at this time seems a little strange.
Cao Fei couldn't save face, so he jumped up and said, "Why are you barking like a dog? Country people just have no manners. Look at your character, you still want to eat swan meat!"
"Look in the mirror first to see what kind of person you are. You even want to cheat a countryman's house. I think you are worse than a countryman!"
After Zhang Han finished speaking, he raised his hand and called the waiter, "Pay the bill!"
The waiter came over quickly, and Zhang Han took out three 100-yuan bills: "I'll pay for the preserved egg and lean meat porridge and fried eggs, the beauty porridge, shrimp dumplings, abalone and seafood porridge, and fried dumplings. You don't need to make up for it. The rest is his."
Having said that, he left immediately.
Seeing that Zhang Han hadn't paid his bill, Cao Fei suddenly became anxious and shouted, "Wait! You invited us to dinner, and you want to run away without paying the bill!"
"Originally, we agreed yesterday that Linlin and I would come over and treat Auntie to a meal out of respect for our elders, and you would order those things yourself. Since you are so rich, just pay for them yourself!" Zhang Han responded indifferently.
His clothes were simple and far less fancy than Cao Fei's.
People around them listened to the conversation between the two and compared their clothes. More people grumbled, "Rich people let poor people pay for the bill." "This set of branded clothes is not cheap. The bag in her hand alone is more valuable than everything else on her body. You ordered the food and ate it yourself, so why should you let others pay for you?"...
Cao Fei was angry and embarrassed at the moment, his face turning pale and blue.
Zhang Han was too lazy to pay attention to Cao Fei, nor did he want to wait for Cao Lin to say anything else. He was extremely disappointed with the other party's performance today, so he just left.
The waiter couldn't ask Zhang Han to pay the remaining money, so he came to Cao Fei and asked politely, "Sir, do you want to pay your bill now or after you finish eating?"
Cao Fei looked at Cao Lin unhappily, "Sis, your boyfriend ran away, so you have to pay for this, right?"
"How much?" Cao Lin picked up the phone reluctantly.
"The total consumption is 738 yuan. The gentleman just now has already paid 300 yuan for the two ladies, and this gentleman only needs to pay 438 yuan for the 488 yuan he spent."
"738? 438? Why does breakfast cost so much? Did you calculate it correctly?" Cao Lin stared at the waiter.
"Preserved egg and lean meat porridge is 28 yuan, fried egg is 2 yuan, Ruyi abalone and seafood porridge is 138 yuan, sea cucumber porridge is 158 yuan, frozen sea cucumber and prawn fried dumplings are 218 yuan..." The waiter reported the prices of all the dishes.
"Whoever orders pays!" Cao Lin decisively changed her mind.
"Sister, what do you mean? Mom, you see, sister is too stingy..." Cao Fei muttered.
Wang Qian also frowned: "Linlin, it's just a bill, why are you so upset?"
"Mom, I spent all my salary this month on stock trading. I only have 200 yuan left. What can I use to pay the bill?"
The family's words made the waiter and the diners around them look strange for a while.
