268: Chapter 4 Qi Da Fei Ou_2 268: Chapter 4 Qi Da Fei Ou_2 During this period, Lin Xiaoguai also checked in on Zhu Huixi and Yang Xiaoli’s situations.
Thanks to her family’s arrangents, Zhu Huixi had entered a governnt agency.
Although she was just a junior clerk, her future was promising, and she was very satisfied.
Moreover, she and Wang Han had set their wedding date for early next year.
On the other hand, Yang Xiaoli hadn’t decided on her job yet.
Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi had both asked her about her plans, but she seed indecisive, unsure whether to stay or return to her hotown.
Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi were sowhat anxious.
It so happened that they had a day off, and Zhu Huixi ca to invite Lin Xiaoguai to visit Yang Xiaoli together.
Lin Xiaoguai didn’t hesitate and agreed at once.
Yang Xiaoli was still living at her aunt’s house, where they had been back and forth for years and were very familiar with each other’s situations.
Aunt Yang was incredibly good to her niece—since she had only one son, she treated Yang Xiaoli like her own daughter.
Also, as Aunt Yang was always the decision-maker at ho, Yang Xiaoli, though living at a relative’s place, felt no different than being in her own ho.
“Su Cheng, if you still recognize as your mother, co back with !” A distinguished lady around fifty dragged a young man out of the house, who continually looked back with an expression of both pain and difficulty.
This scene unfolded at their destination.
Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi exchanged looks, wondering what was going on.
Guessing it was so dostic issue of Aunt Yang’s family, they were about to retreat and return another day.
However, Aunt Yang, who appeared at the door, saw them and awkwardly said, “Oh, it’s Xiao Guai and Huihui.
Co in, please sit.”
Having been invited, Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi reluctantly entered.
“Xiao Guai, Huihui?” Seeing them, Yang Xiaoli paused, quickly wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Though her movent was swift, Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi still caught it.
They exchanged looks, filled with surprise and concern—could it be that the recent incident involved Yang Xiaoli?
Aunt Yang sighed, “You girls talk, I’ll go and make so tea.”
“Xiao Li, are you alright?” Zhu Huixi cautiously inquired.
Having been close for four years, she knew Yang Xiaoli was a strong-willed person.
Such a breakdown was definitely not ordinary.
“I’m fine.” Yang Xiaoli shook her head.
Seeing her still unwilling to share despite being in such a state, Lin Xiaoguai and Zhu Huixi felt a bit helpless but knew better than to insist.
“Xiao Guai, what exactly do you think happened to Xiao Li?” After leaving Aunt Yang’s house, Zhu Huixi couldn’t help but ask.
Considering the departing mother and son’s dressed manner and deanor, Lin Xiaoguai suspected sothing but shook her head, “I’m not sure, but it must be related to Xiao Li’s recent indecisiveness.”
In her freshman year, Yang Xiaoli had ntioned returning to her hotown after graduation to work and earn money for her younger brothers’ education.
However, her current situation showed she wanted to stay but couldn’t make up her mind.
“Do you think that man just now could be Xiao Li’s boyfriend?” Zhu Huixi wasn’t foolish and whispered into Lin Xiaoguai’s ear.
“That man’s family seems quite wealthy,” Lin Xiaoguai spoke dryly.
Zhu Huixi fell silent; many were aware of the challenges of a mismatched marriage.
Besides, they understood Yang Xiaoli.
She appeared soft-hearted but actually had a very high sense of pride.
Generally, if Lin Xiaoguai or Zhu Huixi gave her gifts, she would accept them but would surely return the favor in so other way, never wanting to take advantage of them.
It was known that although Aunt Yang’s household was affluent, Yang Xiaoli’s own family was hardly better off than the poor.
Moreover, Yang Xiaoli wouldn’t take the money Aunt Yang gave her; she spent only what she earned from part-ti jobs.
Recalling in sophomore year, a boy nad Yu Jiaqi pursued her, assisting her with als and saving seats.
They saw that Yang Xiaoli was also moved initially, but as soon as it was revealed that Yu Jiaqi ca from a very wealthy family, she promptly refused him without hesitation.
Yu Jiaqi tried to win her back afterwards, but it didn’t sway Yang Xiaoli.
This indicated that Yang Xiaoli wasn’t a woman trying to climb the social ladder.
However, now she was sohow involved with such a man, suggesting her feelings for him were deep.
Even after returning ho, Lin Xiaoguai still had this matter on her mind.
She wasn’t worried about Yang Xiaoli and that man eventually going their separate ways, but she was concerned that this heartbreak could leave a lifelong shadow on Yang Xiaoli.
In matters of love, it’s usually won who end up at a disadvantage.
n might move on from a relationship within a year or two, but won could take a lifeti to overco it.
Yang Xiaoli was sensitive and stubborn, and she was deeply involved in this relationship.
The outco really was hard to predict.
When Shen Chi arrived ho that evening by car, Lin Xiaoguai found it a bit strange, “Did you go on a long trip today?” Although Shen Chi was at a level where he had his own official car, unless he had to go out, he usually walked or cycled around the compound.
“No, I brought so stuff ho.” Saying this, Shen Chi went around to the rear of the car and lifted a large wooden crate from it.
The crate was huge, and even with Shen Chi’s current strength, he struggled to handle it; just placing it on the ground already had him panting.
Lin Xiaoguai wanted to help, but considering her own light weight, she decided against it.
Fortunately, the crate was quite battered, and Shen Chi simply pulled it inside the house by a handle.
“What’s inside?” Lin Xiaoguai asked as she poured him a glass of water.
“Jade and gold,” Shen Chi answered succinctly.
“…The raw kind?”
“No, they’re processed jade materials.”
Lin Xiaoguai paused, “Full of them?” She suddenly thought of the anti-corruption campaigns in later years; Shen Chi should have principles, right?
She felt sowhat uneasy.
