Chapter 126: Chapter 126 Living Expenses_1
He had never spoken these words in his past life, perhaps due to his indifference and aloofness, which left him no opportunity to say them. For some reason, Nan Fei felt a burning sensation in her heart.
The wallet in her hand was so hot that she could barely hold onto it.
Huo Beijiang was genuinely concerned that she would refuse, and he had prepared himself mentally for her rejection. He had long understood the character of this girl. She appeared gentle and easygoing, but in reality, she was stubborn and stickler for principles.
Any ordinary person would have been knocked back by her words.
Huo Beijiang felt a sense of satisfaction, thankful that he had a thick skin.
Nan Fei opened the black wallet. Inside, there were more than ten one hundred yuan notes, several fifty-yuan notes, and a few tens, fives, and one-yuan coins. She couldn’t help but smile lightly, took out all the hundred-yuan notes and gave the rest back to Huo Beijiang.
“This is your living expense.” Since she was willing to marry him willingly, she should rightfully accept his salary. Let the past life’s pretentiousness go to hell!
She could guarantee that if she didn’t take it, he would definitely get angry.
“Thank you!” His purse was almost empty, yet Huo Beijiang laughed heartily, even his steps becoming much lighter. “Let’s go! I have three days to spend with you this time.”
“Who wants you to…” Oh well! Short favors make slaves.
In the motel, Gongxi Yunqi was sulking on the sofa. Chen Cuihua walked in from outside and noticed her son’s gloomy face. She initially wanted to greet her son, but swallowed her words before they could leave her mouth.
She decided not to stir up trouble.
She approached the cashier and asked, “Have you seen Nan Fei? We agreed to go to the clothing factory together.”
The cashier gestured towards Gongxi Yunqi and whispered, “She went out for breakfast with the young master this morning. Only the young master and Zhen Zhen came back, Nan Fei didn’t.”
“Strange!” Chen Cuihua muttered to herself, “We had an agreement, could it be that she went on her own?”
“Boss, are you idle?” the cashier asked annoyed. It was always about Nan Fei! If they didn’t know better, they might think she was a tag-along!
“Not at all! I’m very busy.” Chen Cuihua said proudly: “Don’t be kidding, I’m the boss. Have you ever seen a boss who isn’t busy?”
“I hadn’t before knowing you.”
“Boss, aren’t you going to console your son? He’s in a bad mood.”
“If he were a pretty girl, I would. Unfortunately, he isn’t!” Chen Cuihua said disgustedly: “I think I’m just unlucky. I was cheated by a bad man at a young age and eloped with him. I wanted to give birth to a beautiful daughter, but ended up with a stinky boy.”
The cashier dropped her head on the cash register, refusing to look up, her eyes uncontrollably rolling back.
She thought to herself, yes, your fate is ‘unfortunate’. The man you eloped with turned out to be an ultra-rich tycoon in the provincial city, spoiling you without any limits. Your ‘stinky boy’ has outstanding talents and excels in both his academics and conduct.
“Boss, if you keep this up, I will quit.” It wasn’t fair to be insulted all the time.
“Don’t!” Chen Cuihua put on a smiling face. She rarely came to the inn, and it was the cashier who was in charge most of the time. If the cashier quit, she would have to close down.
While they were talking, Gongxi Yunqi suddenly stood up from the sofa, his eyes looking towards the door.
Following his gaze, Chen Cuihua saw a man walking with Nan Fei. He was handsome, tall and slender. His gaze was filled with a rampant charm, giving people a sense of recklessness, carefree boldness.
Being with Nan Fei, he not only stood out with his looks but also with his complementary temperament.
