When it comes to love, it is money that talks?

It was love at first sight for marketing executive Lu Yun when he was
introduced to his girlfriend two years ago.

But the 28-year-old man from Shanghai has found that when it comes to
the four-letter word, it is money that talks.

In fact, it was the subject of the couple's frequent fights - before
they decided to "take a break" from the relationship early this year, he
said.

"She made it very clear: An apartment works. No apartment, no-go," Lu
said.

两年前,(某公司)营销专员陆运(译者注:音译)与女友一见钟情。

但这个28岁的上海小伙不久后发现,“爱”是要用金钱来“呵护”的。

陆先生说,他和女友经常为此吵架。直到今年年初,他们决定“分开一段时间”。

陆先生说:“女友的态度很明确:必须得买房子。没有房子,一切免谈。”
