240 Hit A Wall
Bai Xi’s dream finally shattered.
She realized she was getting more and more caught up in the small things in the house. Her son goes to kindergarten was far more worrying than she had imagined. She had to check Chen En’s homework every day. After class, she had to accompany Chen En to the parent-child park.
Chen En’s health had not been very good when he was young, and he had to go to the hospital every now and then. Bai Xi was even less in the mood to work, and almost never left her son.
After spending a few years with Chen En, Chen Ying was about to take her middle school Examination.
Due to the stress and unstable hormones during puberty, Chen Ying had never been good to Bai Xi. Even when Chen Kuan was at home, she called Bai Xi “vixen” without hesitation.
In the beginning, Bai Xi was still very sad. She didn’t want Chen Kuan to bring a child, let alone such a big one.
The second reason was that she was hurtful with her words, and the first was that she couldn’t get closer to her.
However, Chen Ying was still Chen Kuan’s, her husband’s, child. Bai Xi still hoped she would have a bright future. Bai Xi had bought her the most fashionable doll gift boxes and the most popular clothes, hoping she could calm down and get into a good high school. However, Chen Ying still didn’t give her a face.
When Chen Ying yelled at her again, Bai Xi suddenly realized her position in the family was like a free nanny.
At this time, Bai Xi came back to her senses. She was nearly thirty years old. She still acknowledged her identity as a college student in her heart. Who knew she had already been fighting and killing for so many years?
And she was no longer the hot-blooded young girl who had just graduated from University.
She began to see wrinkles on her face, her body began to relax, and she felt endless fatigue.
Bai Xi told herself she probably wouldn’t be able to go out to work in the future.
The self in the mirror didn’t seem to be worthy of her ambition at all. She was old and stupid.
She began to learn how to write and draw. When she was depressed, she would ponder in the study room alone. It seemed to be able to relieve some of her worries. Gradually, Bai Xi also fell in love with this feeling of freedom.
Chen Kuan saw she was working on oil painting dyes every day and suddenly remembered one of his friends was in the art gallery business. When Chen Kuan greeted the upper-class people, almost all of their wives had an art gallery.
The art gallery was usually filled with expensive paintings that could show a family’s aesthetic appreciation and also show their financial strength in a low-profile way.
Besides, the hostess was very eye-catching in her gown, standing at the entrance of the gallery.
Chen Kuan thought giving Bai Xi an art gallery would make him look good. In addition, Bai Xi had also been interested in making money some time ago, so she would probably be very happy to receive such a gift.
Chen Kuan was not mistaken. When he brought Bai Xi to that small place, Bai Xi was so excited that tears fell.
This was indeed the job she wanted. It was easy and profitable. However, the income of an art gallery was not high. It was more about health than business.
But now…
Bai Xi had left Chen Kuan’s circle, and she had nothing but this gallery.
He would definitely be reluctant to sell it, and the possibility of making a living was not high.
Bai Xi still chose to find another job.
Recently, Bai Xi had been running to the talent market every day with her college diploma. When she got there, she realized there was no shortage of people in the world who had a diploma and certificates, and were proficient in all kinds of martial arts.
Bai Xi was in the bustling crowd, squeezing from morning to night. Her high heels had long worn out her soles, but she still felt there was hope, and she wanted to ask every family.
However, she was often met with unfriendly faces.
“I’m sorry, but you don’t have the relevant certificate.”
“I’m sorry, but we don’t need anyone with this profession for the time being.”
Bai Xi was a little disheartened.
She found an area with fewer people and stood outside, quietly watching the people moving in the inner circle.
She saw that the people around her started to become sparse.
At this time, Bai Xi saw a house with its lights still on. She was just about to walk in that direction when a voice stopped her.
“We don’t accept people anymore.” The uncle waved his hand and didn’t look at her. “Please return.”
