Little did anyone know that Bai Muyin was not in a good mood after returning home. He went to his study alone, lit a cigarette, and rubbed his forehead in frustration.
Meanwhile, Bai Muda called: "Second Brother, have you arrived? Everything is ready here."
Let's cancel it first.
"Cancel? What's going on? You're such a coward when you propose? This is the second time... Sigh..." Why did you hang up the phone so suddenly?
Bai Muda rolled her eyes on the spot, thinking to herself that she was destined to be a hard worker in front of her two older brothers.
"Just wait, when I propose, I'll definitely give you guys a good beating... What did I do to deserve this? Everyone else is proposing, and I'm the one running around doing all the work. Ugh, it's just a proposal, does it have to be this complicated?"
...
After being called away by the brigade leader, He Wan went to check on the pigs. Since the pigs hadn't been eating much since yesterday, and Zhang Cuicao wasn't around, she could only send someone from the educated youth settlement to check on them.
It was already past seven o'clock when I got back.
Upon entering the basement, I didn't find Lao Yun. Knowing that Sister Han wasn't there, I called out to her loudly from the basement.
As soon as Lao Yun's name was mentioned, Yun Shudai came down the stairs carrying the baby, looking unhappy.
Startled, Lao He took several steps back: "Hey, Lao Yun, are you sneaking around like a ghost?"
Yun Shudai didn't answer, but instead handed her a document.
Old He was puzzled. He looked down and saw it was a release document. He said, "Why are you showing me this? Has something happened?"
Yun Shudai went straight over and sat on the sofa before nodding to Lao He: "Lao He, Mr. Bai was initially happy to ask me out today, but suddenly he became absent-minded and backed out of our agreed meeting. I suspect he saw this document and that's why he acted this way."
"What's wrong with this document? Isn't this part of the normal procedure?"
"Yes, he asked me about you today, intentionally or unintentionally, and it was all about money. He probably thinks of me as a woman who cheated her best friend out of her money, who is morally corrupt and has distorted values."
He Wan was shocked by her words, staring at her with wide eyes and saying, "You took my best friend's money...?"
Seeing Yun Shudai nod, He Wan burst out laughing.
Enraged, Yun Shudai threw a pillow at her: "You're still laughing."
"Isn't your Mr. Bai quite shrewd? Why would he think in this direction?"
“He knows my approximate financial situation. I paid back the remaining money in less than a year, and that was no small amount. The only person he could think of was you, because you asked me to sell several high-value antiques.”
"I borrowed it."
“Borrow, borrow so much at once. And he asked me if I had borrowed money from anyone. I didn’t think of that at the time, and I said no, which caused the whole thing to go wrong.”
"Then go explain! Go talk to him and say I borrowed it from you. If he doesn't believe you, then we can video chat in front of him." He Wan said, glancing down at her outfit. "Just let me know beforehand so I can change. That should solve the problem, right?"
Yun Shudai shook her head stubbornly and said, "I'm not going."
"Why are you throwing a tantrum now? The worst thing for couples is when neither of us speaks up and we both keep things bottled up inside. Misunderstandings will only deepen and eventually lead to a breakup."
"He clearly had questions in his mind, why didn't he just ask directly instead of beating around the bush? Besides, I don't really want him to know too much about you. It's fine now, but what about later? What if he suddenly decides to see you? The address we gave him was just a cover; it'll be exposed as soon as we investigate."
"If you don't say anything, this misunderstanding will become huge."
"No, it was your money anyway."
“Can we be the same as other best friends? When it comes to money, what’s on your side is yours, and what’s on mine is mine.”
"But I can't explain it."
"Tsk, what's wrong with you guys... why are you suddenly like this? It's so worrying."
