"What are you talking about? Big sister, I really came up to take a look at the house." The middle-aged man saw that she didn't seem to be lying, so he pretended to look around the house again, then turned his gaze back to Xia Yu'an and said, "I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now. Although I'm renting this house to you, you still have to take good care of it... You know, wallpaper, furniture, etc., don't damage anything."
Seeing that Xia Yunxi had turned on her cell phone, the middle-aged man finally stopped dawdling and gave instructions as they walked.
Regardless of whether this was his purpose, after that person finally left.
Xia Yunxi immediately stepped forward and locked the door.
Thinking of what happened just now, her heart started pounding wildly.
There were footsteps behind her, and her sleeve was tugged by a slight force. Xia Yunxi leaned against the door, lowered her head, and met a pair of clear, innocent eyes, now filled with worry: "Mommy, are you okay? I've scared the bad guys away."
Even Xia Yuan could see that the man just now had ulterior motives.
Xia Yunxi squatted down and hugged his small body into her arms: "It's okay, I was just scared by the stranger who suddenly broke in."
"Mommy, don't be afraid." Xia Yu'an imitated the adults and patted Mommy's back with his little hands: "I'm here, I will protect Mommy."
"Yes, mommy is not afraid as long as my baby is here." Xia Yunxi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, hugged her small body, and felt the most genuine comfort belonging to the child. It seemed to really dispel a lot of the panic in her heart.
It seems that we can no longer live in this house.
Xia Yunxi thought to herself.
…
Time flies and passes quickly.
A week later, when the doctor asked Xia Yunxi to talk and told her that her grandmother could be discharged from the hospital, Xia Yunxi was stunned for a long time and did not react.
The first thought that came to my mind was, can I be discharged from the hospital so soon?
However, if you count the days carefully, it has been more than a month since she returned to China.
My grandmother's condition is under control for now, but as people age, their body functions decline, and many effective treatments can no longer be used on them. The only thing we can do now is recuperation and conditioning.
As long as the condition does not worsen with medication, it is already the greatest luck.
Xia Yunxi couldn't tell whether she felt relieved or heavy when she heard the news. Although she knew that everyone would leave her life, this was the first time she realized it so clearly.
Xia Yunxi came back from the hospital and was making plans in her mind all the way to find a better nursing home for her grandmother.
This is an output, and there are also future medicines and nursing staff...
When Xia Yunxi thought of her savings, she suddenly felt that she had been living in comfort for too long, so much so that she almost forgot that she wanted to provide a comfortable life for her loved ones. Without money, what could she do?
I returned to the community, got out of the car, and just locked the door.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, its expression of surprise unable to conceal its joy: "Miss Xia..."
Xia Yunxi turned around, and when she saw the person coming, she was no less surprised than the person coming, "That..."
"My last name is Wang!" the man said gently.
"Hello, Mr. Wang." Xia Yunxi remembered that the last time she attended Xia Wei's engagement party, Xia Chenghai brought her to the guests and introduced her specifically.
"What are you doing?" She looked back at the area around the community. Her parking space was right downstairs from the apartment building. Something was surging in her mind, but Xia Yunxi didn't want to think about it and suppressed it forcefully.
"Oh, I'm here to meet a client. How come Miss Xia lives here?" Mr. Wang had a subtle smile on his face. Although he was middle-aged, the calm aura he had cultivated made it difficult for people to feel wary.
"Yes, I rented a house here." Xia Yunxi said with a smile, and did not say anything more.
Mr. Wang looked up at the apartment building in front of him and said in surprise, "Why don't you ask your father to buy you a house so you can live here, Miss Xia? It's not that I'm too picky, but it's not safe for you to be alone with the child."
This person actually even knew that he had a child. Xia Yunxi subconsciously frowned slightly, but still maintained a polite appearance and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it. It's not that unsafe. Besides, there are security guards outside!"
Mr. Wang disagreed, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he said in a gentle and kind voice, "Since we've met, it's fate. I wonder if Miss Xia has time to do me the honor of having a meal with you?"
"This," Xia Yunxi said in embarrassment, "maybe not possible today. I have something else to do."
"That's okay." Being rejected seemed to be something he had expected. Mr. Wang did not insist. Instead, he took out a business card from his handbag and said, "Ms. Xia, I'm available whenever you are free."
Looking at the business card handed over, Xia Yunxi felt it difficult to refuse. After taking it, she apologized with a slightly embarrassed look.
"It's nothing. On the contrary, I like Miss Xia's personality." Mr. Wang said this calmly.
Xia Yunxi was slightly stunned. Just when she thought the other party would continue to pester her, he actually said goodbye to her very kindly.
This made Xia Yunxi feel a little embarrassed, but the thought only flashed through her mind.
She turned around, went upstairs, returned home, and quickly put the thought out of her mind.
Xia Yunxi took out her bank card and checked her account.
However, when he saw the number five million, Xia Yunxi fell weakly on the computer chair in the study. When he returned to China, he had some savings and didn't think much about money. He only thought about finding a job after returning to China.
However, the reality was beyond her ability to adapt to it with her ostrich mentality.
She thought that a few million should be more than enough to support Xia Yuan until he graduated from elementary school, but she didn't understand the situation at all.
Can the development in China in recent years be compared with the era five years ago when a popsicle cost fifty cents?
The five million yuan she has in her card is not even enough to buy an 80-square-meter house in Jiangcheng!
Xia Yunxi took a deep breath, regretting that she had awakened to the awareness of money too late, wasting more than a month.
Standing up straight, Xia Yunxi didn't dare to delay any longer. He turned on the computer and started writing his resume.
…
at the same time.
In Shengda Hotel.
Alan sat on the sofa, his long legs stretched out, his feet crossed on the coffee table in front of him. On his legs was a notebook, which was playing a video that was not suitable for children.
Alan deliberately turned up the volume, as if only in this way could he feel stimulated.
Not far from him stood a short man.
Even though he didn't make any movement, it was not difficult to see his respectful look from his posture and expression.
Alan raised his hand and touched his smooth chin, his jewel-blue eyes flashing with strange interest.
The short man had been secretly watching him. Seeing his expression change, his eyes rolled slightly and he asked tentatively, "Mr. Allen, are you in love with this girl?"
