Chapter 350 The End
"You brat, all you ever do is covet your uncle's money," Ji Xuesong scolded, but his eyes were full of laughter.
He put down his laptop, took out a red envelope he had prepared beforehand, walked up to Huo Huai Sui, and handed it to her, saying, "A little something for when we meet. I didn't have time to prepare one, but I'll give you a bigger one next time we meet."
Xie Qinglan urged from the side, "Take it carefully."
Huo Huaisui quickly accepted the red envelope, "Thank you, Uncle."
The red envelope was very thin, but judging from the feel of it, it looked like a card inside.
If they can give you a card, the amount must be substantial.
This realization surprised Huo Huaisui somewhat.
"I have something to do, so I won't be back tonight. I'll bring you a birthday cake when I come back tomorrow." Ji Xuesong turned around, picked up her laptop, and walked out.
Ji Xuesong did have something to do that evening; if it weren't for wanting to see his nephew's girlfriend, he would have left long ago.
The secretary also took a briefcase and followed behind Ji Xuesong.
Before Ji Xuesong left, Xie Qinglan raised her voice and said, "Get some rest early, don't stay up so late."
Ji Xuesong scoffed, "Do I need you to remind me?"
Once in the car, Ji Xuesong looked out the window at the brightly lit villa and suddenly sighed, "Xie Chaoyin and I are about the same age. Xie Chaoyin's grandson is almost six years old, smart and adorable. I wonder when I'll be able to hold my own grandson."
Thinking of this, Ji Xuesong felt that Xie Chaoyin was not human.
Everyone else is single and doesn't have a wife, so why does he have a daughter, and not only a daughter, but also a grandson?
That's infuriating!
The secretary smiled and said, "Young Master is still young."
“His mother was born when he was his age, but that didn’t stop him from pursuing his doctorate,” Ji Xuesong said. “If you ask me, a decent degree is enough. What’s the use of studying so much? Instead of disciplining a bunch of clueless kids like his parents, he might as well come with me and learn how to do business.”
The secretary could only say, "Everyone has their own ambitions. The young master is perfectly clear-headed."
Ji Xuesong shook his head and didn't continue the topic.

Huo Huaisui only opened the red envelope Ji Xuesong gave him after the car sounded getting farther and farther away.
Just as she expected, it was a bank card with the PIN written on the back.
Huo Huaisui asked, "How much money is in the card?"
Without hesitation, Xie Qinglan said, "Five million."
Huo Huaisui: "..."
She posts good morning and good night messages to Xie Qinglan on her WeChat Moments every day, earning only 20,000 yuan a day. She would have to work hard and shamelessly for 250 days to save up 5 million yuan. But then her boyfriend's uncle gave her a 5 million yuan gift as a first meeting gift, even though she "didn't have time to prepare".
How much should the gift be for our next meeting...?
Huo Huai Sui always thought she would be poor for the rest of her life, but she never expected that she could become rich with the help of her boyfriend.
Once upstairs, Huo Huai Sui belatedly realized a problem.
Are you very busy? Am I bothering you?
Xie Qinglan: "I am very busy. But I didn't bother you."
Since he said so, Huo Huai Sui believed him and stopped arguing with himself.
She reached into her pocket and pulled out a small box. "A birthday present."
Xie Qinglan raised an eyebrow slightly. "What?"
Huo Huai Sui shoved the box into his arms, saying, "You'll know once you see for yourself."
Xie Qinglan opened the box.
Inside was a red string with a rough-looking jade bead threaded through it.
Huo Huaisui was afraid that Xie Qinglan would think the gift was shabby, so he quickly said, "I made the rope myself, I polished the beads by hand, and I even went to the temple to have them blessed. You can't dislike it."
He had given her a jade bracelet before, and now she was returning the favor.
She didn't have as many beads as he had given her, but she did her best; her fingers were even blistered from trying to get them.
I ask for nothing more than peace and safety.
Xie Qinglan: "I don't mind."
How could I possibly dislike a birthday gift from my girlfriend?
He wouldn't mind even if she gave him a bracelet made of weeds.
Xie Qinglan took out a red string from the small box and handed her left hand to Huo Huaisui, saying, "Help me put it on."
Huo Huai Sui helped him put it on.
He has fair skin, and the red string looks especially good on him.
Huo Huai Sui held his hand and examined it for a while, then took out his phone and took a picture.
Xie Qinglan suddenly asked, "Are you still watching the previous videos?"
"..." Huo Huai Sui calmly put away his phone. "I'm tired of seeing it."
Yeah, right. Actually, there are still viewers, just not as many as before.
Xie Qinglan: "We'll watch the new ones later."
Huo Huaisui: "?"
Xie Qinglan pushed her into the room, saying, "Let's film another scene."
"Us?" Alarm bells rang in Huo Huai Sui's mind.
Xie Qinglan lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "It's fine either on the bed or off the bed."
Huo Huaisui: "..."
No, she's not very good at it.
She absolutely did not want to see her image appear on the projection screen!
-
Huo Huaisui knew that Xie Qinglan didn't have time and didn't plan to stay here for too long. Xie Qinglan returned to China the day after her birthday.
When Xie Qinglan saw Huo Huaisui off at the airport, she specifically reminded him, "It's not my birthday, so don't come here alone next time."
Huo Huai Sui muttered, "If they don't want to come, they don't have to."
Xie Qinglan tried to reach out to pull her, but Huo Huaisui threw a tantrum and wouldn't let him touch her.
Xie Qinglan sighed and glanced at the time on the electronic display screen. "Go in. Send me a message when you get there."
Huo Huaisui didn't move.
Xie Qinglan: "What's wrong?"
Huo Huai Sui opened her arms and hugged him briefly, then quickly stepped back and walked towards the ticket gate without looking back. "You go back now. I'm leaving."
Xie Qinglan was taken aback.
After returning to China, Huo Huaisui's life remained regular. In addition to posting on WeChat Moments every day to confess her love to her boyfriend and sending him good morning and good night messages, she went to get off work and ran her coffee shop, spent time with her mother and her boyfriend's mother, occasionally met up with her best friends, or accompanied Zhang Qin to pursue Xie Qingtang.
As in previous years, Huo Huai Sui spent all the holidays related to lovers alone this year, but Xie Qing Lan still rushed back the day before her birthday to personally give her a birthday gift, whispering in her ear at midnight, "Sui Sui, happy birthday."
The difference was that on Xie Qinglan's birthday, before Huo Huaisui could fly over to surprise her boyfriend, Xie Qinglan returned.
Huo Huai Sui was very surprised when she saw him. "Why did you come back?"
He stood outside the door, travel-worn, with that familiar smile on his face. "Weren't you supposed to be with me for my birthday?"
At that moment, Huo Huaisui couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
He didn't want her to go abroad to celebrate his birthday, so he came back himself so she could celebrate it for him.
Many people say that long-distance relationships are tough, but Huo Huaisui doesn't think they're that difficult.
Every long-distance relationship eventually comes to an end.
In June of that year, Xie Qinglan completed her studies, firmly refused the professor's offer to stay, and set off to return to China.
