Fan Shengmei never expected that the first thing Wang Baichuan said when they met was to break up.
For a moment, Fan Shengmei felt extremely aggrieved, and her eyes immediately turned red.
"Why?"
Wang Baichuan remained silent and unconsciously turned his gaze elsewhere, not daring to look at Fan Shengmei with blazing eyes.
"Because you're broke?"
Although Wang Baichuan said nothing, Fan Shengmei immediately guessed the reason.
"Wang Baichuan!"
"Am I just that kind of superficial woman in your eyes?"
"When you have money, you raise it. If you don't have money, you kick it away?"
"You bastard!"
"Isn't it just bankruptcy? What's so great about it?"
"If you were still a man, you would get up again from where you fell!"
The more Fan Shengmei talked, the more excited she became. On the other hand, the more Wang Baichuan listened, the more guilty she became.
In fact, Wang Baichuan deceived Fan Shengmei. His bankruptcy was not because Mr. Ni defaulted on the order payment, but because he and Mr. Ni invested in a project together.
As a result, Mr. Ni ran away with the money, and the project was thrown into confusion. All the early investment was wasted.
The reason why Wang Baichuan didn't choose to tell the truth was because he didn't want Fan Shengmei to think too much. Although the original intention of making his investment was to let Fan Shengmei live a better life, as a man, he should bear the responsibility himself if he failed.
In a trance, Wang Baichuan's thoughts drifted further and further away. It was not until Fan Shengmei's scream came to his ears that he came back to his senses.
"I disagree!"
Looking at Fan Shengmei who was in tears, Wang Baichuan's heart softened and he could not say those decisive words.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and Wang Baichuan suddenly hugged Fan Shengmei.
"Xiaomei, I love you."
"I love you."
Fan Shengmei could feel the trembling in Wang Baichuan's tone. She was very familiar with this tone. She could only have this tone when she was crying and talking at the same time.
"I love you too."
…
…
…
Blinking your eyes, time has arrived a week later.
Fan Shengmei has been running around for Wang Baichuan these days. She has lost count of how many phone calls she has made and how many people she has begged for, but her efforts have not had any effect.
In one week, she only helped Wang Baichuan get two orders, and the total value of the two orders did not exceed 300,000.
For a shortfall of four million, this amount of money is completely a drop in the bucket.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Fan Shengmei dragged her tired body and smelled of alcohol back to 2202. As soon as the door opened, she saw Qiu Yingying sitting on the sofa with a worried look on her face.
"Sister Fan, are you okay?"
Even Qiu Yingying, who had always been carefree, sensed something was wrong with Fan Shengmei, but she was just an ordinary migrant worker. She was neither as capable as Andy, nor as wealthy as Guan Ju'er.
Therefore, she could only care about Fan Shengmei as much as possible in her life.
"No...it's okay."
Fan Shengmei burped and waved her hands.
"I'm fine."
"vomit!"
Suddenly, Fan Shengmei retched, then covered her mouth and stumbled to the bathroom.
Seeing this scene, Qiu Yingying sighed secretly. In recent days, she had seen similar scenes almost every day, but every time she asked, Fan Shengmei said nothing.
In the bathroom, Fan Shengmei felt like her stomach was churning and she couldn't help but want to vomit.
vomit!
vomit!
This vomiting was like a flash flood. In an instant, all the contents of the stomach surged up. By the end of the vomiting, even tears burst out.
At the same time, Guan Ju'er, who was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, suddenly received a message from Qiu Yingying.
Little Earthworm:[Picture]
Little Earthworm:[Picture]
Little Earthworm: Alas, Sister Fan drank too much again today, and I don’t know what happened to her.
Seeing the pictures sent by Qiu Yingying, Guan Ju'er couldn't help but have a look of worry on her face.
Seeing this, Li Jie stretched out his hand to gently smooth her frown and said softly.
"What's wrong? You frowned again?"
Guan Juer pursed her lips and pointed to the chat interface on her phone.
Li Jie glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and realized that it was because of Fan Shengmei. Although he didn't know why Fan Shengmei was like this, he could draw a conclusion after a casual analysis.
There are only two possibilities, either family or love.
As early as a few days ago, Qiu Yingying told Guan Ju'er about Fan Shengmei's situation. Li Jie originally thought that Fan Shengmei would seek help from Guan Ju'er again, but after a few days, there was no movement from Fan Shengmei's side.
Such performance made Li Jie look at her slightly higher.
After looking away from the screen, Li Jie put his arm around Guan Ju'er's shoulders and whispered.
"If you want to know the reason, I can help you find out."
"Forget it, this is not good.1"
Guan Juer thought carefully for a moment, then firmly shook her head.
She didn't want to invade other people's privacy rashly. Fan Shengmei kept silent. She must have her reasons. Why should she go to the bottom of it?
Hearing this, Li Jie said softly, "Yeah", and then changed the topic to Guan's mother.
"By the way, what did your mother say on the phone today? When will she come over?"
"I won't say the specific time, but it will be within a week at the earliest."
"What about your dad? Will you let him stay home alone then?"
Li Jie continued to change the topic, and then made another suggestion.
"Why don't you let your parents come? If they feel uncomfortable living here, they can live over there at Ode to Joy, or we can buy them a house in the neighborhood next door. What do you think of this suggestion?
?”
Guan Juer leaned on Li Jie's shoulder and whispered back: "I don't think my parents would agree."
Li Jie said with a smile: "If you don't try, how do you know it won't work? Tomorrow you call them to find out what they have to say, and then you say you miss them."
"Well, I'll try."
Of course Guan Ju'er wants her parents to come over, because in this way, she can see her parents every day. Although her parents are not very old now, people will grow old one day. Of course she wants to be closer.
This makes it easier to take care of.
"Okay, I'll go buy a house in the neighborhood next door tomorrow."
In fact, Li Jie had bought this house a long time ago. Not only had he bought it, but he had even decorated it. As soon as Guan Juer's parents came, he could move in immediately, but he never told Guan Juer.
"Don't rush to buy it yet. My parents may not be here yet."
Although Guan Ju'er knows that her family is rich, her consumption concept has not changed much.
Li Jie smiled and casually gave a reason.
"It doesn't matter, just treat it as an investment. I feel that housing prices in Magic City are still going up. Even if your parents don't come, you won't suffer a loss if you buy it."
