Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1227
Jasmine said, “You must introduce to me the girl who wins Julian’s heart. I’m curious as to the type of woman who can tame
Julian.”
Josh drew close to her ear and kissed her cheek before uttering in a raspy voice, “You’re now part of the Bucham family. We will
be the first to know when Julian finds a girl.”
Jasmine gave him a nudge. “The elders are around.”
Yet, he kissed her.
Sure, Jasmine was bold. However, she was shy to engage in any sort of intimacy in the presence of elders.
“The closer we are, the happier they get.”
Jasmine took a quick look at the oldies. They were going back and forth on the date of the engagement party to pay attention to
the couple.
“Let’s go for a stroll,” Jasmine suggested.
Josh was more than happy to oblige.
“Mom, Josh and I are going to take a walk.”
Jasmine told her mom before dragging Josh out the door.
The floral display at the gate shimmered under the night sky. Josh had installed colorful fairy lights along the roses. Once the
night took over, the fairy lights were plugged in and lighted. It looked beautiful.
The streetlights were turned on too, shedding light on the various luxury cars parked along the street. Jasmine told the man
beside her, “I wanted to look for a man of my social class and be a landlady. Money will come into my bank account even in my
sleep. I never dreamed that I would be with you.”
“I own a lot of housing properties and shops. My money is collecting dust in the bank. We can use it for investment. You can still
be a landlady. The houses and shops under my name can be rented, and you can collect the rent. You are free to spend the

money however you want. If you don’t want to spend the money, you can use the money to buy land and build houses to rent
out. Make your money grow.”
Jasmine replied, “It costs a lot to buy land and build houses now. It didn’t cost a lot to set up a house for rental when the real
estate market first took off. It was a sound business since the rents haven’t gone down.”
Her generation witnessed the property boom firsthand.
The property prices shot up.
“Real estate isn’t a lucrative business now. Didn’t you go into an investment with Serenity and Ms. Stone? You can collect rent to
invest. Just do whatever you want to. Don’t worry about taking a loss. I got you covered.”
Jasmine felt loved.
She heard the same words Zachary said to Serenity from Josh.
Jasmine had nothing to be afraid of since she had a man by her side. She could go ahead and make something of herself.
She rested her head against Josh’s shoulder. “Josh, did I ever tell you that I love you?”
“I think you did, or maybe you didn’t. Even if I had, I still want to hear it from your lips.”
Jasmine smiled. “I love you!”
Stopping in his tracks, Josh pulled her into his arms and looked at her with ravishing eyes. He wanted to take her.
His “I love you too” disappeared into the locking of lips.
Jasmine’s best friends, Serenity and Elisa saw the photos and videos posted by Jasmine on Facebook.
Serenity was the first to find out about Josh’s proposal.
She posted her congratulations under the post.
Serenity had only asked Jasmine this morning when she could expect the wedding bells. To her surprise, Josh popped the
question by the time evening rolled around.

Alone at the shop, Serenity looked at her best friend’s Facebook post and felt happy for her. Her mind wandered to herself and
Zachary.
They got their marriage license from the get–go.
Zachary had never proposed to her.
The jealous man had yet to reply to her text message. God knew whether his non–reply was due to his work or jealousy.
