The Domineering Chief Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 344: Let's sell something first to get some money for the journey

It was a European-style bar. There were several bottles of white peach wine in front of Xu Hui. She was holding a freshly opened bottle of wine and pouring it into a glass. She then drank it in big gulps.

Lin Jiaran sat opposite Xu Hui with a notebook in front of her. Due to health reasons, she could not drink alcohol for the time being. Occasionally, she would drink water instead of wine and clink glasses with Xu Hui. The rest of the time, she would seriously catch up on her knowledge.

After drinking two bottles in silence, Xu Hui put down the bottle and the cup. Lin Jiaran also closed her notebook. Their tacit friendship made her know that Xu Hui put down the bottle because he had something important to tell her, and she had to listen carefully.

After Xu Hui put down the bottle of wine, he looked at Lin Jiaran and said, "I have booked a flight to Milan tomorrow afternoon."

Hearing that Xu Hui was going abroad, Lin Jiaran's face darkened with sadness, "How long will she be gone?"

Xu Hui's eyes turned red and tears began to well up. She looked upwards, trying hard to hold back her tears. "I don't know. It may take a long time. Or he may not come back..."

"what happened?"

"My mother is not my mother. It turns out that my name is really the name of my mother when she gave birth to me. My mother did not allow my father to go home. It was only because my mother died of complications during childbirth that I was allowed to return to the Xu family. I had no one to take care of me..."

What Xu Hui said was a bit like a tongue twister. After reviewing it in her mind for a while, Lin Jiaran came to a conclusion, "You mean your current mother has no blood relationship with you, and your mother died when she gave birth to you?"

Xu Hui nodded with tears in her eyes. She couldn't help but let the tears fall. She then reached out and wiped them away casually.

"Even if that's the case, you still have me in Ancheng, so you won't be homeless. My house is spacious and you can move in anytime. Or I can buy you a house. I have my own money now, so I can pay for it in full."

After being immersed in negative emotions for a while, Xu Hui wiped away her tears with both hands and returned to normal, "Luckily, I always stood up for you back then. At least now I have a rich female friend..."

Lin Jiaran took out a tissue from her bag and handed it over, "So what are you going to do in Milan?"

Xu Hui took the tissue and wiped her nose before saying, "Of course I will continue my career as a fashion designer."

"I don't care where you go, you must come to my wedding next year!"

"I was wondering why the money was not collected in the first place. It turns out that they were planning to start over!"

It turns out that what Lu Jingshen said about confiscating the gift money was true! She thought he was lying to her with the excuse of re-holding the wedding!

"Really confiscated it?"

"Anyway, I returned all the money I gave. I also asked my brother, and he said that the wedding was held in the name of the Lu family, so I didn't need to give any money."

"If you don't come back after you go to Milan, will An Junfeng follow you?"

"I broke up with him. He has a fiancée. Luckily we had just started and there was still time for everything. I almost became the mistress I hated the most, but I ended up being this kind of person..." Xu Hui said calmly.

Lin Jiaran didn't say anything. She stood up and walked to the bar to ask the waiter for a new glass. She returned to her seat, opened a bottle of wine, and poured two glasses.

After pouring the wine, Lin Jiaran drank the first glass.

"What the hell, can you drink now?"

"You're leaving soon. I won't die if I drink two glasses of wine. I can't have children anyway. Who cares? I have the final say over my own body!"

"I can't explain to your man that you got sick from drinking!"

Xu Hui has a psychological trauma from Lu Jingshen. It's not just his death-stare look, but also the fact that Lu Jingshen suddenly showed up at her doorstep late at night not long ago and asked about Lin Jiaran's most important concerns. An AK scared her so much that she told him everything.

Regarding Lin Jiaran, her brother often advised her to stay away from Lu Jingshen. Apart from Lin Jiaran, Lu Jingshen's attitude was to ignore everyone equally and coldly. He was the kind of person who didn't recognize his relatives and was unkind!

"What are you afraid of? If you feel threatened in any way, tell me and I will avenge you. Lu Jingshen is very busy tonight and has no time to bother you!"

When leaving the house, Lu Jingshen reported his travel plans to her, saying that he was going to Tianyu City to discuss business with someone.

"You really can't drink. Our relationship doesn't need these two glasses of wine. Drinking too much is bad for your health!"

Lin Jiaran had already drunk two cups and was feeling sad. She didn't listen to any advice. Xu Hui was her only friend and was leaving Ancheng to go abroad. Regardless of whether Xu Hui would come back or not, they would not be able to see each other often in the future...

Lin Jiaran handed the glass of wine to Xu Hui, "Do you want to drink it? If not, we'll break up!"

"Hey! I'm leaving tomorrow anyway!"

The two of them raised their glasses and drank one after another.

After a few drinks, Lin Jiaran started to feel drunk, and Xu Hui, who had already drunk some wine, also started to feel tipsy.

Lin Jiaran's eyes were red, and she wiped away tears as she spoke, "If I had known that you would leave one day, I should have made two more friends, so that I wouldn't be alone in the future..."

"It's okay. We can chat on WeChat in the future. I'm in Milan and you're in Ancheng. We can make a video call and chat while shopping. But we can't hold hands..." As Xu Hui spoke, tears began to appear again.

Their friendship could be described as a revolutionary friendship. From elementary school to university, they attended classes together, ate together, gossiped together, fought together, skipped classes together, were punished together, went on trips together, had a car accident and injured their legs together, and failed a grade together...

Xu Hui has a more lively personality. She will fight if she is not convinced and will argue if she has something to say. Lin Jiaran is relatively steady. Usually, Xu Hui is the one who takes charge. Whenever there is a need for thugs, Lin Jiaran, who has some basic kung fu experience, will take action to defeat the enemy.

As they drank, they began to cry bitterly.

Xu Hui used the wine glass to knock against the glass in front of Lin Jiaran. The glass shook and a few drops of wine splashed out. "Today is my broken heart. I should be sad. Why are you crying too?"

Lin Jiaran raised her glass, took a big sip of wine, and swallowed it. The wine flowed down her sharp little jaw and into her collar. "You are the best at arguing and talking back. When you leave, I can't win the argument alone. You still don't allow me to be sad..."

"Even if I get into a big fight in the future... and someone slaps me in the face, I won't dare fight back..."

"Xu Hui...why don't I go with you...I've wanted to leave Ancheng for a long time, but no one wants to go with me...I've saved a lot of money, enough for both of us..."

Xu Hui stood up first, swaying from side to side, "Then let's go... now!"

Lin Jiaran put down her wine glass and stood up. She glanced at the computer on the table with her blurry eyes and picked it up.

Even though he was drunk and walking around, he at least remembered to pay the bill. Lin Jiaran took out some cash from her bag first, and then the two of them walked out of the store side by side.

Zuo Yun and Zuo Xin were responsible for waiting for Lin Jiaran at the store door. After Lin Jiaran came out, Zuo Yun stepped forward to support Lin Jiaran, while Zuo Xin supported Xu Hui who almost fell on Lin Jiaran.

"Ma'am, give me the things!"

Lin Jiaran shook her confused head, looked at Zuo Yun and asked: "How much do you think this computer is worth?"

"I don't know much about computers, so I don't know how much it is worth." Zuo Yun replied.

"Forget it, I won't ask you!" Lin Jiaran waved her little hand, and with her blurry eyes she noticed something shiny in her hand.

"This should be quite valuable. When did I get something like this?" Lin Jiaran murmured softly.

"Lin Jiaran, are you going to leave or not?" Lin Jiaran was reluctant to leave, so Xu Hui started yelling.

"Of course we have to go. Let's go sell something first and get some money for our journey!"
