She was afraid of losing it. There were fifty thousand yuan in it. She had never carried so much money with her when she went out in her life, so she deliberately put it in her waist pocket and hid it in her clothes. She went to choose a bracelet and then took the card out of her clothes.
This pair of bracelets cost her 48,000 yuan. Dai Huimin had never spent so much money in her life. But when she bought it, she didn't feel bad at all. She thought that it was for Lin Chu, a wedding gift, and she was full of blessings.
At that time, she was so happy that she didn't have time to think about whether Lin Chu would accept it or not.
Now that she knew that Lin Chu wouldn't accept it, she felt indescribably uncomfortable. Her heart felt like it was being squeezed by an invisible hand and was about to explode.
Her hands were trembling as she held the bag. She just … just wanted Lin Chu to accept this small gift.
Lin Chu saw it and sighed in his heart. He opened his palm and extended it towards Dai Huimin. "Isn't this for me?"
Dai Huimin first saw Lin Chu's soft and white palm. It was thin and not rough at all. It was very different from hers.
Then she heard Lin Chu's words. Dai Huimin almost thought that she heard wrong. She looked up at Lin Chu's soft face and tears suddenly rolled down her face.
"Yes! Yes! "Dai Huimin said hurriedly. She was afraid that Lin Chu would regret, so she quickly handed the bag to him.
Her hands were empty, but her heart was full.
She wiped her palms on her pants a few times. She didn't know what to do and didn't know what to do.
"You … you take it. Wait for me … I'll buy you something better. "Dai Huimin said while crying and laughing.
"That's enough." Lin Chu looked down and said, "Actually, it's better to save the money to buy these in the future and donate it to the orphanage. Maybe —"
"Yes, yes!" Dai Huimin nodded hurriedly. She felt that whatever Lin Chu said was right. "You're right. I really want to thank the old director. When I go back, I'll tell Jiaojiao's father to donate more money to the orphanage! "
After coming out of the restaurant, Lin Chu thought for a moment and said, "Do you want to go home or go back to the restaurant? I'll have someone send you. "
"No need, no need." Dai Huimin quickly waved her hands and said awkwardly, "I … want to go to Lin Mao to take a look."
Lin Chu immediately understood that Dai Huimin wanted to personally verify it.
She nodded and didn't say anything else, letting Yan Beicheng send her back to the company.
Dai Huimin didn't know where Lin Mao was, so she called a taxi and told the driver where Lin Mao was.
The driver wasn't sure either. He only found out after checking with his phone.
At the entrance of Lin Mao, Dai Huimin took out some change from her pocket and gave it to the chauffeur.
After getting out of the car, he went to the entrance of Lin Mao and waited. But after thinking about it, he felt that he was standing a little too conspicuous. After looking around, he entered a snack shop next door and looked out through the glass door.
Not long after, they saw Xu Jiaojiao walking towards them with a handsome young man. They were about to enter Lin Mao's main entrance.
Dai Huimin hurriedly pushed open the door, wanting to find Xu Jiaojiao. However, two young girls walked past her.
Dai Huimin listened to them chatting as they walked. "Xu Jiaojiao came back with President Cheng again. The two of them aren't trying to avoid arousing suspicion at all."
Dai Huimin's heart skipped a beat. When she heard the word 'President Cheng', she felt that it was probably the Cheng Ziming that Lin Chu had mentioned.
"The two of them aren't afraid now. The chairman is on a business trip, and Lin Yuwen went to the United States for treatment. There's no one here to manage Cheng Ziming," a man in a blue shirt said and sneered. The man in the blue shirt said and sneered, "But these two people are really funny for burying their heads in the sand. Who in the company doesn't know about the two of them? Yet, they go out every day at noon and pretend to talk about business. "
"You don't say. In the beginning, many people in the company were fooled by them. Even I almost believed them," another woman in a dress said. "If I hadn't gone to my friend's house that day, I wouldn't have thought that Cheng Ziming would also rent an apartment in my friend's neighborhood to have an affair with others. At that time, I saw him hugging Xu Jiaojiao. They were really intimate. "
"Say, aren't they afraid that the company's gossip will spread to the chairman and Lin Yuwen's ears?" The woman in the blue shirt asked, "Even if they're very careful in the company, they can't prevent others from seeing them, right? Didn't you bump into them before? Cheng Ziming relied on the Lin Family to rise up, so it's like he married into their family. If Lin Yuwen gets angry and divorces him, he'll have nothing left. "
The woman in the dress was slightly older, so she poked the head of the woman in the blue shirt. "You're still young, so your thinking is shallow. What's Lin Yuwen's situation now? She's infertile and divorced Cheng Ziming, so it's not easy for her to find another man. Which man would be willing to marry a man who can't leave a descendant for himself? If he's willing, then he's like Cheng Ziming, who doesn't have good intentions and is only interested in the Lin Family's money. Since she's already suffered at Cheng Ziming's hands, how could she accept another man like Cheng Ziming? Besides, although our President Cheng isn't a good person, his face is quite pleasing to the eye. "
"Moreover, even if someone tells Lin Yuwen about this, do you think the person who informs her will get anything good out of it? Haven't you noticed? Now, the company is slowly being controlled by Cheng Ziming. Lin Yuwen isn't around, and the chairman is getting old, so he's often powerless. We still don't know what will happen in the future. Who knows if Lin Mao will really become Cheng Ziming's in the future? After all, this is their family's matter. Who would be willing to offend others over something that has nothing to do with them? It won't do them any good if they tell others, and they won't get anything out of it. So, everyone is just watching the show, and no one will really tell others about it. "
Dai Huimin's heart turned cold as she listened on. She was a little out of her wits and didn't know what to do.
It was one thing to listen to Lin Chu, but in fact, she still had some hope in her heart. She felt that there might be a mistake.
She personally came to see it and verified it, so she knew that it was true. Her daughter actually fooled around with a married man, and everyone knew about it. Dai Huimin did something wrong when she was young, and she didn't want Xu Jiaojiao to do the same.
She felt that she did something wrong when she was young because she was young and insensible. Besides, she was uncultured and inexperienced, so she was easily deceived.
But Xu Jiaojiao was different. Even when her family was in a difficult situation, she still worked hard to provide for her to go to school, gain knowledge, and broaden her horizons. Now that she had graduated and was a university student, she knew a lot. How could she do such a thing?!
It was immoral!
Dai Huimin almost called Xu Jiaojiao and asked her to come down.
But she resisted the urge. She couldn't care less about saving money, so she hailed a taxi and went back to the small restaurant.
It wasn't lunchtime, so the restaurant wasn't busy. Her husband, Xu Dongguo, was a diligent person. After serving the guests at noon, he cleaned up the restaurant inside and out.
When Dai Huimin returned, she hesitantly told him about Xu Jiaojiao.
"I panicked too. I didn't know what to do, so I quickly came back to discuss it with you." Dai Huimin casually pulled a stool and sat down, her face pale.
Xu Dongguo didn't hesitate at all. He immediately closed the restaurant and wouldn't do business that night. He put the freshly picked vegetables in the fridge and brought Dai Huimin home.
In the evening, when Xu Jiaojiao was about to get off work, he asked Dai Huimin to call Xu Jiaojiao and ask her when she would be back.
Xu Jiaojiao said on the phone, "Mom, I have to work overtime tonight. Don't worry about me."
Xu Dongguo directly snatched the phone and shouted, "What overtime?! I think you're fooling around with someone else's husband! Don't think we don't know, come back immediately! "
Lin Chu didn't ask Dai Huimin how to deal with Xu Jiaojiao's matter. He was busy with the wedding almost every day.
The wedding was set to be in March next year. Grandfather Yan looked through the almanac for several days before deciding on a day suitable for marriage, migration, digging, and picking.
Yan Beicheng asked Sheng Yue to empty that day early. Not only the auditorium, but the entire Sheng Yue was closed. At noon, the wedding would be held in Sheng Yue, and at night, the ceremony would be held at Red Roof.
On Saturday, they had an appointment to look at the house.
So, Lin Chu and Yan Beicheng woke up early. Yan Huaian thought that since they were going over today, he might as well call Chu Zhaoyang and the others over as well.
They didn't hide the fact that they planned to move from Aunt Zhuang, but Lin Chu still told Aunt Zhuang not to mention it when they went out to chat with others, lest Lu Zhenghang find out.
Although Lin Chu felt that they were really afraid of Lu Zhenghang, he told himself that this was called being cautious.
The two also brought New Year's Eve with them. Yan Ningbai really missed New Year's Eve. Last night, he specially called them and repeatedly reminded them to bring New Year's Eve.
Lin Chu knew that the scale of Shengcheng District was slightly larger than Ding City. There were high-rise duplexes and villas. It was just that the villas were built later, and Yan Huaian and Yu Zi moved in earlier.
Now, they felt that they were quite used to living in Shengcheng. Yan Ningbai was still young, so they were afraid that Yan Ningbai wouldn't be used to a sudden change of residence. In addition, he had a bad sense of direction and didn't know the way since he was young.
Yu Zi once said that when Yan Ningbai was four years old, he played with others in the district. In the end, after playing, he wanted to go home for dinner, but he went to the wrong building.
They lived in building number five, but Yan Ningbai miscalculated the intersection and took a turn ahead of time to go to building number four. He remembered that it was the unit door, so he rang the doorbell and someone actually opened the door for him. He went in just like that and searched according to his own floor, only to realize that he was at the wrong door.
Yan Ningbai was so scared that he cried. The person looked pitiful and let him go in first before calling his home.
In the end, Yan Ningbai cried and asked, "You … You guys aren't going to kidnap and sell me, are you?"
Originally, they had good intentions, but Yan Ningbai's words made their faces black.
