### Chapter 228: The Wedding Savings Account
”Alright, Mr. Lin Tian, I believe we can do it!”
”By the way, let me convey my congratulations to you and Teacher Gan Yan Yu again. It’s kind of like a pre-celebration!”
”If one day, I really get to see one of my artists couples getting hitched, that would be such a grand occasion!”
”Also, your salary for this month has already been deposited into your account. Don’t forget to check it out later.”
Salary?
Seeing the last message, Lin Tian paused for a beat, then switched off his phone.
He saw the text on his messaging app.
“【Plant Flowers Agricultural Bank】 Le Yun Talent Agency transferred ¥2,190,470.85 to your account ending in 4396 at 11:41 AM on January 24.”
”One, ten, hundred, thousand…”
Lin Tian started counting the numbers on his phone screen out loud.
He sucked in a cold breath,
“Little Gan.”
“Mm?”
“Do you prefer a detached villa or a large flat?”
“Ah?”
“…”
Two million!
After living 18 years, Lin Tian saw such a comforting number in his bank account for the first time.
Even though he had guessed the sales for the album might reach up to ¥200,000,
Getting the actual amount still blew his mind.
Soon after, He Zhi Chen sent over the detailed breakdown.
【Physical Album: Sold at ¥168 each, with 76,000 sold】
【Digital Album: Sold at ¥48 each, with 130,000 sold】
【Income from streaming platforms, after splitting the percentage】
【…】
【You and Teacher Gan Yan Yu have earned a total of ¥2,190,470.85 this month. No issues here, Mr. Lin Tian. Everything is transferred into your account as requested.】
Finally, He Zhi Chen added confidently:
【We’ve got the highest profit share in the company! With the numbers from this debut album, we’re already one of the top studios in the company!】
“…”
Seeing her bank account swell by over two million, Gan Yan Yu also sank into thought.
“You must have something you want to buy. A new cello? Or maybe some clothes? Or should we just go full-throttle and buy a new house?”
This money was a joint effort by Lin Tian and Gan Yan Yu.
Therefore, Lin Tian made sure to ask for her opinion first.
Lin Tian didn’t really chase after luxury; however, as they had earned quite a bit, he felt it reasonable to treat themselves a bit.
Buying a house wasn’t out of the question either.
With over two million ¥ in Qingzhou City, getting a detached villa might be a stretch, but a large flat in the suburbs wouldn’t be a problem. Plus, there’s always next month’s salary.
Lin Tian wasn’t particular about living in an upscale area—he just wanted everything to have a meaning.
The place they lived in now, while small, meant something.
“Lin Tian, do you want to move?”
Gan Yan Yu asked,
“If you do, then we will.”
“Not really…”
“Actually, I like this place a lot.”
“Let’s stay right across the street. One phone call and I can be at your place. For rehearsals, we can use Grandpa’s café. Even though it’s a bit far, I can always feel you around. This kind of life makes me happy.”
“Just my own thoughts. If you want to live somewhere larger, I’m okay with that!”
“If you’d like me to move, I will, but I think it might make us miss each other more!”
She finished with a serious expression, a smile tacked on at the end.
“…”
“Never mind…”
Lin Tian chuckled helplessly.
Since she seemed so attached already, forcing her to leave her childhood home felt like overkill.
Besides, he wouldn’t survive it himself.
“Anyway, university starts in a few months. We can plan a move then.”
It was too early to talk about moving.
But there were other things Lin Tian thought needed addressing.
“So, anything else you want to buy now that we’ve hit the jackpot?”
“Well…”
Gan Yan Yu stood up, walked behind Lin Tian, placed her hands on his shoulders, leaned in and smiled brightly,
“How about treating your Little Gan to a pudding combo meal!”
“..Huh? That’s it?”
“Don’t blow your earnings on frivolous stuff. After all, every song is a piece of your soul,”
she teased him.
“Fine.”
Lin Tian thought for a moment.
“What if I give you some of it to spend as you want?”
Lin Tian felt putting all the money in his possession alone was wrong.
Even if it was merely being entrusted to him by Gan Yan Yu, the amount was huge, and it weighed heavily on his conscience, especially given Gan Yan Yu’s innocent nature.
He decided that Gan Yan Yu should have a portion of the money to use as she wished, or at least transfer a sum to her account.
“Let me tell you something cool,” Gan Yan Yu suddenly said.
“I heard that couples saving for marriage usually keep a joint savings account. Once it’s full, they get married.”
Her hands clasped together, smiling,
“Why don’t we create our own ‘wedding savings account’? We’ll only keep enough for daily expenses, and put the rest in the account. When we get married, it can be used for whatever we need!”
“…”
New knowledge indeed.
Little Gan didn’t understand much about “romance”, but she sure knew her wedding stuff.
And what on earth was this wedding costing millions?
Lin Tian slapped his forehead.
Now, the Kor cups had no choice but to win.
It was too late to go back!
If they lost the competition, their engagement plans would be kaput!
“Okay, I’ll go along with it.”
Lin Tian agreed.
He wasn’t one to chase material things anyway.
Forget the two million, achieving his dream was what mattered most!
“Great!” Gan Yan Yu pumped her fist happily.
