Extra Chapter: Huo Huai'an: I'm Having a Hard Time ②
Having spent millions at once, and with Huo Huai'an's card at that, Yu Xiangkui felt somewhat uneasy.
"Hey, what are you afraid of?" Huo Huai Sui comforted his sister-in-law. "My brother, a single man in his thirties, is so lucky to have married such a beautiful wife like you. He should be burning incense at his ancestors' graves. What's wrong with spending some of his money? If you don't spend it, are you expecting him to save it for other women?"
She'd been bullied by her stingy brother for so many years, and the more her sister-in-law spent money, the happier she became, wishing she could immediately pull her up and move to another shopping district to continue the fight.
Lu Fengqing wholeheartedly agreed with Huo Huaisui's words, "If this man won't let you spend money, then find another man who will."
Huo Huaisui also said, "If my brother dares to have any objections, it means he doesn't love you. Dump him and find someone else!"
Yu Xiangkui was both amused and exasperated.
She never thought Huo Huai'an loved her.
She was the one who pursued him.
Huo Huai'an was never willing.
He married her simply because he felt responsible for touching her.
Yu Xiangkui returned to her and Huo Huai'an's new house and deliberately piled all of today's spoils in the living room. She sat on the sofa, drinking milk tea and playing on her phone, waiting for Huo Huai'an to come home from get off work.
When Huo Huai'an got home from get off work and saw the things all over the living room, he raised an eyebrow and looked at his wife on the sofa, "Did you go out with Lu Nian today?"
Yu Xiangkui nodded and said calmly, "I bought some things."
Huo Huai'an didn't say anything, loosened his tie, and sat down next to Yu Xiangkui. "Have you had dinner yet?"
"Not yet." Yu Xiangkui's gaze fell on his collarbone, which was exposed after his shirt collar was loosened. Certain images floated through her mind, and her gaze drifted away.
Just as Huo Huai'an was about to suggest going out to eat together, he suddenly felt a weight on his leg.
His young wife suddenly sat on his lap, hooked her arms around his neck, and bit his collarbone, saying indistinctly, "Eat now."
Huo Huai'an: "..."
In the end, the two of them naturally didn't manage to get out.
Huo Huai'an personally cooked two bowls of noodles to fill his stomach.
The next morning, Huo Huai'an got up and went to work as usual.
Yu Xiangkui, still half asleep, grabbed him and said, "I'm not going to work today."
Huo Huai'an: "Okay. Go to sleep."
Yu Xiangkui opened her eyes. "Niannian and Suisui asked me to go shopping."
Huo Huai'an: "Have Sui Sui come and pick you up."
Driving here is different from Hong Kong Island; here you drive on the right, while on Hong Kong Island you drive on the left. He was worried that Yu Xiangkui would get confused.
Undeterred, Yu Xiangkui persisted, declaring, "I'm going to buy lots and lots of things today."
Huo Huai'an smiled and said, "Then I'll have to buy a few more big houses."
Yu Xiangkui blinked, "Why buy a house?"
Huo Huai'an: "I'm putting something here for you."
Yu Xiangkui paused, stared at Huo Huai'an for a few seconds, then sat up. "Aren't you angry?"
Huo Huai'an looked completely bewildered. "Why are you angry?"
Yu Xiangkui said, "I spend money recklessly."
"Isn't money meant to be earned and spent?" Huo Huai'an pinched her cheek. "Spend it without worry. I can afford to support you."
Yu Xiangkui: "...Oh."
The three friends who spend money meet again, and Yu Xiangkui tells her two girlfriends about their conversation that morning.
Huo Huai Sui immediately felt as sour as if she had eaten a lemon, "Don't worry about Hua... I'm his own sister, and he's never said that to me."
The more Huo Huai Sui thought about it, the more indignant he became. He turned around and called Huo Huai An to question him.
Ignoring Huo Huaisui, Lu Fengqing asked Yu Xiangkui in a low voice, "My dad has a big estate in City C. Do you want to come with me for a few days?"
Yu Xiangkui: "Okay."
Huo Huai Sui, who had just been hung up on by his older brother, said angrily, "I'm going too!"
Her reason to Xie Qinglan was: My brother is a jerk, and I don't want to stay in the same city as him for the time being. I want to go out and clear my head.
Xie Qinglan: "..."
Huo Huaisui has been married for so many years, but his personality is still so fiery and energetic.
Xie Qinglan didn't stop her, but simply asked, "Are you going with my sister?"
Huo Huaisui: "And my sister-in-law."
Xie Qinglan was relieved.
Huo Huai'an drove away his wife, and now Huo Huai'an has no wife to keep him warm at home.
Then he'll be in balance.
The three women left without a second thought, abandoning their stroll in the streets. They immediately went home to pack their belongings and agreed to meet at the airport.
Lu Fengqing's trip to City C was discussed with Gu Suixing beforehand; only Huo Huaisui and Yu Xiangkui's decision was made on a whim.
Huo Huaisui called Xie Qinglan immediately, and Yu Xiangkui also called Huo Huai'an, but Huo Huai'an was in a meeting at the time and did not answer, thus becoming the last person to know about it.
By then, the person was already on the plane, and it was too late to stop them.
Huo Huai'an had no choice but to ask Gu Suixing, "What are they going to City C for?"
Gu Suixing was looking down at the report, and upon hearing this, he didn't even look up: "Lu Nian said she wanted to inspect the land her father had built for her, and let the land recognize its owner."
Huo Huai'an: "..."
God the hell made the land inhabited by everyone.
Why would she take his wife with her when she goes to see her kingdom?
Huo Huai'an only dared to think these words in his heart.
Of the three women, only his younger sister was easy to bully; he dared not speak up about the other two, and was unwilling to do so.
He's having a really tough time.
It's bad enough that the money was spent, but now the person has run away.
It's really tough for him.
Huo Huai'an tried to find a balance, "Are you willing to let Lu Nian go away for a few days without coming back?"
Gu Suixing finally looked up, "I can't bear to part with it."
Huo Huai'an's eyes lit up, and he was about to speak.
Then Gu Suixing said, "It just so happens that I'm going to City C on a business trip tomorrow."
Huo Huai'an: "..."
That's enough.
