Chapter 874: Certificate in Hand, The World Is Mine! Xiaoyanzi Becomes a Real 'Famous Teacher'_3

Her tutoring class has built quite a reputation, and it’s becoming well-known in the community with a steady stream of students.

Xiaoyanzi is happily raking in money but increasingly worried.

She’s afraid that an English-savvy parent might whimsically track down the foreign training institution’s contact information and call to inquire whether their child is a student there. If her “renowned teacher” identity is exposed, that would be troublesome.

It seems like she’s worrying needlessly.

Su Zelin has reassured her many times that such a thing is nearly impossible to happen.

Even if there’s a parent proficient in English, finding the contact info for the training institution is not easy. The internet isn’t as developed now as it will be in the future; searching for the training institution’s name directly on Baidu or Google wouldn’t yield results.

Moreover, her certificate is already being processed and has been filed.

Since they are her customers, the training institution wouldn’t be so unreasonable. If someone calls to inquire, they’d surely confirm her client status.

Xiaoyanzi feels relieved and gleefully receives the certificate from Su Zelin, carefully cradling it in her hands while praising it non-stop.

“Look at the material here, the craftsmanship, even the printed text is clearer, shining like it’s gilded; this is truly the real deal!”

Su Zelin couldn’t stand her expression and couldn’t help but tease, “Oh, please, I don’t think this looks much different from the one I made!”

“Go, go, go, the real bill and the fake bill aren’t the same, are they? Besides, this thing is worth five thousand bucks!”

She spent five thousand yuan to get a piece of paper, but Xiaoyanzi isn’t the least bit upset.

With the certificate in hand, the world is mine!

From this moment, I am a truly distinguished teacher!

Seeing her like that, Qin Shiqing amusedly asked, “Xiaoyanzi, when do you plan to go home?”

Lin’an Fourth High School also started the holiday today, but Xiaoyanzi couldn’t possibly go home immediately.

Both summer and winter vacations are prime times for tutoring business.

“Not so soon, Shiqing, you have no idea how popular I am now!”

Xiaoyanzi boasted, “Many parents say not only am I beautiful and gentle, and articulate, but my teaching methods are flexible and adaptable, as expected from someone who has trained overseas!”

“Compared to those rigid, old-fashioned teachers, their children prefer my classes; they insist that I run my winter vacation class for a longer period!”

“With so many enthusiastic parents and eager learners, how could I refuse them? So, I can only tutor until three days before New Year’s!”

Su Zelin laughed, “The ‘beautiful and gentle, articulate’ part seems like something you added yourself, right?”

Caught by the rogue, Xiaoyanzi blushed, “Don’t mind those details; as long as the parents are praising me, that’s all that matters!”

She paused, then excitedly said, “During the winter break, I plan to recruit a few more for the summer special class!”

“Tutoring until three days before New Year’s and opening more classes, Xiaoyanzi, aren’t you working too hard? Take care of your health!”

Qin Shiqing said with concern.

“Oh, I’m still young, right? If not now, then when will I strive?” Xiaoyanzi replied indifferently, “New Era is almost on the Spring Festival Gala, and you and Su Zelin have been striving for months, with the company working overtime every day and traveling for business. Besides, I need to save up for the down payment on a house early!”

“Honey, actually, it’s okay if we delay buying the house a bit; don’t be in such a rush!”

Lu Haoran felt sorry for his girlfriend.

Since graduation, Xiaoyanzi has been tirelessly working, and he only regrets that his salary is too low. Currently, saving up relies primarily on Xiaoyanzi.

“What do you know?” Xiaoyanzi glared at the honest guy, “The house prices in Lin’an rise day by day; buying a house one day later makes me feel like I’ve lost a lot of money!”

Su Zelin just shook his head.

Xiaoyanzi seems obsessed with buying a house.

“It’s just a down payment, right? How about I lend you some?”

He had mentioned before that if Xiaoyanzi needed it, he would lend them a hand.

“Su the Tycoon, we don’t need it; given our current income, by the end of next year, if our families help a bit, we’ll probably have enough.”

Xiaoyanzi was quite determined.

She did consider borrowing money from Su Zelin, but that was before she started the tutoring business.

Without the tutoring classes, relying solely on her and Lu Haoran’s salaries, saving up would indeed take a long time. But circumstances are different now; she belongs to the high-income group, and saving for the down payment exceeds expectations, so she doesn’t think about asking Su Zelin anymore, not to mention he’s already helped her a lot—from the tutoring class ideas, marketing the renowned teacher plan, making certificates, to arranging the real certificate—not to mention her frequent visits to her bestie’s house for meals over the past half year.

So, Xiaoyanzi feels that relying on herself and her boyfriend’s abilities to quickly save up for the down payment, there’s no need to trouble Su Zelin further.

“Alright then.”

Su Zelin shrugged, “But if you do buy a house, make sure you get a big one, at least over one hundred square meters, with a prime location and environment. Though more expensive, it’s comfortable and appreciates faster.”

“Got it, Haoran and I have already discussed; we won’t buy a mediocre house!”

With the significant increase in income, Xiaoyanzi’s standards have risen.

She indeed has an urgent desire to buy a house but won’t compromise to get it quickly.

During this era, many banks provided mortgages with a minimum down payment of twenty percent. For a one million yuan house, a down payment of two hundred thousand yuan suffices, along with deed tax, stamp duty, maintenance fund, and insurance, totaling over two hundred twenty thousand yuan.

Given Xiaoyanzi and Lu Haoran’s current income level, as long as they aren’t spendthrifts and scrimp and save, within a year, they could accumulate nearly two hundred thousand yuan. If both families contribute an additional hundred thousand yuan, along with their earnings this year, they would have over three hundred fifty thousand yuan for the down payment, even for Song Yuwei’s residence at West Lake. Impression Wind and Moon, one of Lin’an’s best apartment complexes, they could buy a one hundred fifty square meter unit.

Seeing the pair already have a plan in place, Su Zelin refrains from saying more.

The accomplishment felt from purchasing a house with money earned through hard work is unparalleled.

Thus, in the process of helping his best friend couple realize their housing dream, he plays the role of a strategist, offering ideas for them to earn more money.
