Xiaohua had drunk quite a bit of alcohol today, and her head was a little sore. She had been drinking a lot of alcohol these past few days, and not only did she have a headache, but her stomach also ached from time to time.
It really feels like trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead. The business hasn't taken off, and I don't want to ruin my health by drinking too much. I haven't made any money, and I don't even know where my life will go.
"You don't need to worry about my sister. She doesn't stay angry for long, and she won't hold a grudge. She'll probably be over it in a couple of days!"
He Yan didn't plan to try to persuade his sister. He knew her well enough; she would only be angry for a couple of days, and then she would get over it on her own.
If he tries to persuade his sister now, she will definitely think that it was Xiaohua's idea, and that he and Xiaohua are in cahoots. He doesn't want his sister to think that Xiaohua is the kind of person who is narrow-minded.
"I'll ask the auntie to make you some hangover soup. Drink some, then take a hot bath and go to bed!"
He Yan could tell from the smell of alcohol on her that she must have drunk a lot. In fact, he really didn't want Xiao Hua to go out for social events like this.
Although he didn't want to interfere with what Xiaohua did, he felt it wasn't good for a woman to drink with men at the dinner table every day.
Putting aside reputation, a woman's alcohol tolerance is nowhere near that of a man's; she can't possibly outdrink a man. It's purely about forcing herself to drink, and her body can't take it in the long run.
"You should go and get some rest too. I'm really exhausted. I won't come into Kang'an's room to check on him. I'll take a shower and then go back to my room to sleep. Goodnight!"
Xiao Hua's attitude towards He Yan has improved so much now; it's no exaggeration to say it's a complete 180-degree change. Humans aren't plants or trees, so how can they be without feelings? After living under the same roof for so long, Xiao Hua has gradually come to dislike He Yan less. For example, now when she goes in and doesn't go to sleep, she'll even say goodnight to him.
The words "goodnight" made He Yan feel flattered and overwhelmed.
After so many days, his relationship with Xiaohua has finally made new progress. At least Xiaohua's attitude towards him now can truly be described as kind.
Goodnight, you too. Sweet dreams.
He Yan suddenly became a little shy, and his speech became more literary.
Xiao Hua gulped down the hangover soup in a few mouthfuls. She felt that it wasn't very effective, but since her aunt had specially prepared it for her before leaving get off work, it would be a waste not to drink it. So, she finished the bowl of hangover soup in a few bites and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Xiao Hua looked at He Yan's towels hanging in the bathroom, He Yan's toothbrush and toothbrush cup on the sink, and He Yan's razor. She suddenly realized that He Yan's things were gradually filling up her house.
She wondered when this person had started living in her house and wouldn't leave. She shook her head, but couldn't quite place it. Oh well, he was sleeping with the child anyway, not with her.
Just think of it as if the child kicks off the blanket in the middle of the night, and someone can cover the child with a blanket, so she doesn't lose out.
After brushing her teeth, Xiaohua tossed her toothbrush and cup aside, right next to He Yan's cup.
She hadn't noticed yet, but if she had looked closely, she would have realized that her toothbrush cup and He Yan's toothbrush cup looked like a matching couple's cup!
Actually, these were all He Yan's little tricks, but Xiao Hua wasn't the kind of person who paid special attention to detail. For someone as busy as her, she wouldn't bother to notice these little things.
It wasn't just the toothbrush cup; they were like couple cups. Even the towels she used were the same brand and style as Xiao Hua's. Hers was pink, so He Yan bought her the same style, a sky-blue one. The two towels hung together, giving the impression of a couple's towels.
It has to be said that He Yan, as a man, has quite a few tricks up his sleeve!
He Yan returned to Kang An's room, overjoyed like a two-hundred-pound fool, grabbing his daughter's forehead and kissing her passionately, almost waking Kang An up.
He quickly reached out and patted her, saying, "Sleep well, sleep well, my baby, Mommy and Daddy love you."
Kang An mumbled something, turned over, and fell into a deep sleep again.
Xiaohua usually sleeps very well, but tonight, I don't know what's wrong with her. Maybe she's worried? She drank so much alcohol and is so tired, she just can't fall asleep no matter how much she tosses and turns.
She knew starting a business was difficult, but she didn't expect it to be this difficult. She faced numerous obstacles and difficulties along the way, and now she not only doesn't have the money to expand, but she also has a mountain of debt that she hasn't been able to pay off.
Feeling miserable, she lay on the bed sighing repeatedly. She wondered if she should just swallow her pride and go to Zhou Musheng anyway, as long as he had money. She didn't care about saving face.
He Yan went to the bathroom and turned on a small light in the living room. He saw Xiao Hua sitting on the sofa, hugging her legs and staring blankly.
Why aren't you sleeping?
He Yan quickly went over and squatted down in front of Tai.
Xiaohua sighed.
"I have insomnia and can't sleep."
He Yan knew that she had something on her mind, which was why she couldn't sleep.
He Yan asked, "Are you worried about not being able to find new investments?"
Xiaohua nodded: "Yes, I feel like a failure. I used to be confident, but now I feel so discouraged."
He Yan quickly took her hand to comfort her: "No, you are already very outstanding. I really admire you. For a woman to raise a baby and achieve this much is enough to prove that you are an exceptional woman."
"Zhou Musheng helped me plan and provided me with money and effort in establishing the school. Without Zhou Musheng, I would be nothing. How can this be considered outstanding?"
Xiaohua is now deeply mired in self-doubt.
He Yan took the opportunity to reach out and pull her into his arms. Xiao Hua did not resist.
"Don't deny yourself like that. It's always difficult in the early stages of starting a business. I heard Lu Zhan say that he's a man whose family background and connections are much better than yours, but he had a really tough time at first. It's only in recent years that things have slowly gotten better for him. You'll be the same. Once you get through this period, things will definitely take a turn for the better."
"You don't need to comfort me. I know my own limitations. I think I'll go see Zhou Musheng tomorrow. You can't put food on the table with pride."
When He Yan heard that Xiao Hua was going to go find Zhou Musheng, he felt extremely uncomfortable and repulsed.
"Don't go looking for him." His voice suddenly became very loud, startling Xiaohua.
"What are you doing, shouting so loudly?"
Xiaohua frowned.
"Don't go looking for him. I'll help you find an investment. Give me a few days and I'll definitely be able to find one for you."
He Yan thought that his family had some connections, so even if others didn't do him a favor, they would do his father a favor.
"No, this is my own business. I don't want to rely on you for everything."
Xiao Hua directly refused, saying that He Yan was not a businessman and she didn't want him to always be involved in her business affairs.
He should focus on his studies.
He Yan was furious: "If you don't want to rely on me, are you going to rely on that Zhou Musheng instead?"
