Chapter 008 The Eighth Melon



Chapter 008 The Eighth Melon

"Didn't you guys agree to wait until your careers are stable after marriage, and then get pregnant in three to five years?"

Gu Xicao gave Lin Yuan fifty cents to buy a popsicle before continuing.

What follows is not suitable for children to hear.

"You, you know all this?" Zhou Xiufang looked at Gu Xicao as if she had seen a ghost.

Sun Jiaying couldn't help wondering, "Isn't this great? Why do you say Xiufang's marriage is difficult?"

"That's because that man lied to her about everything."

Gu Xicao said directly: "Her boyfriend fell in love with her because he knew she was studying abroad. Although she dressed very ordinary, anyone with a brain could guess that she came from a wealthy family. Moreover, Miss Zhou returned from the United States. She didn't ask for a dowry or hardware, and she would take the initiative to pay the bill when they went out to eat."

Zhou Xiufang's face turned pale. "My mom said that I can't spend a man's money casually."

"Your mom is right, but it depends on the person. Most people shouldn't spend his money casually, but this is your boyfriend, your future husband. If you didn't spend his money before marriage, do you still want to split the bill after marriage?"

Gu Xicao felt very sorry for Zhou Xiufang. This sister was a really nice person, but unfortunately she ran into a calculating person. "He told you now that he supports your career and will have children later, but as soon as you get married, he will find a way to make you pregnant. With your personality, you won't have an abortion. By then, the so-called support for your career will be nothing but empty words."

"No, no, he wouldn't do that to me."

Zhou Xiufang's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"Ms. Zhou, if you don't believe me, you can try calling him and telling him you're pregnant and see how he reacts."

Gu Xicao was not at all surprised by Zhou Xiufang's reaction.

Although the man was reluctant to spend a penny, he was still very considerate on weekdays. He picked her up from get off work, brought her meals, and sent her brown sugar ginger water during her menstrual period.

Zhou Xiufang herself had no relatives or friends in Hong Kong, so it was inevitable that she would be moved by a man who was so considerate and kind to her.

Then, this was the beginning of her tragic fate.

"This..." Zhou Xiufang clenched her hands.

Sun Jiaying looked at Zhou Xiufang worriedly, then looked at Gu Xicao, and whispered, "Young Master, you are talking too seriously. Her boyfriend is a teacher and a very nice person."

"Professions are professions, people are people, and to be honest, I have left a lot unsaid."

Gu Xicao spread out his hands and said helplessly: "For example, if Miss Zhou is unwell and can't go to work, will Miss Zhou's mother and stepfather send money back to Miss Zhou? For example, if Miss Zhou finds out the true face of her boyfriend after getting married, will she want to divorce?"

"If it's true, I will get a divorce." Zhou Xiufang said gritting her teeth.

She is not the type to swallow her anger.

"But do you think the man will let Miss Zhou take the child away?" Gu Xicao counted on her fingers, "Miss Zhou has a good education, a good family background, is pretty, and most importantly, can make money. If he breaks up with Miss Zhou, can the man find someone better?"

this……

Sun Jiaying looked at Zhou Xiufang, whose face had turned completely pale, and didn't know what to say.

Xiufang’s boyfriend is actually average in terms of conditions. His only advantages are that he is a teacher and has a caring personality, but other than that, there is nothing special about him.

On the contrary, Zhou Xiufang had many suitors because of her conditions, but she was very strong, so most men would back off after failing to please her after a few attempts.

"Ms. Zhou, I have said all I can. You can make your own decision."

Gu Xicao felt that she had done a good deed.

Sun Jiaying hurriedly pulled Gu Xicao and said, "Master, don't just calculate here. Please calculate other things. When will Xiufang's true love come?"

Gu Xicao was silent for a moment. To be honest, Zhou Xiufang would marry someone else after her divorce, but none of them would be a good person.

But can you say such words?

She was afraid of hurting people!

"It's not that bad, right?" Sun Jiaying said hesitantly when she saw Gu Xicao's expression.

Gu Xicao looked at Zhou Xiufang's pale face, cleared his throat, and sat up straight. "That's right, God is very fair."

Zhou Xiufang looked at Gu Xicao with hope in her eyes.

"Ms. Zhou, some people are suited to an ordinary life, but some people, with noble fates, have a fate of ups and downs."

Gu Xicao said: "With your fate, you are destined not to get married in this life, but if you pursue a career, you will become a world-famous advertising tycoon and a wealthy woman."

???

Zhou Xiufang and Sun Jiaying looked at Gu Xicao in confusion.

Wang Laoshi next to him was about to stretch his head over here without realizing it.

"Female billionaire, how rich is she?" Sun Jiaying asked cautiously, stuttering.

Gu Xicao looked at the information. After Zhou Xiufang had three divorces, she had a sudden realization and earned hundreds of millions through her own hard work.

Even though she is burdened by her marriage and her weird son is constantly causing trouble, she can still achieve such results.

"Conservatively speaking, nine figures."

Gu Xicao thought about it and said.

Nine digits?

Sun Jiaying lowered her head and counted on her fingers, tens, hundreds, thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions...

With a thud.

Wang Laoshi, who was standing next to him, fell to the ground with a thud. The two sides looked at each other in embarrassment.

Wang Laoshi patted his butt as if nothing had happened and got up. "What are you looking at? Have you ever seen a handsome guy fall?"

He muttered in a low voice, "Fuck, several hundred million, this girl is so bold to say that."

"Yes, hundreds of millions, hundreds of millions, Xiufang, why do you still need a man?"

Sun Jiaying was shaking with excitement and grabbed Zhou Xiufang's hand, "With so much money, don't forget me when you become rich."

Zhou Xiufang's emotions were fluctuating greatly at this moment, and her feelings were very complicated.

She was feeling miserable just now, but now the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, "Master, is it true?"

Tsk.

Just now I called you Master, now I call you Master.

It turns out that people all like to hear nice words.

Gu Xicao was not surprised. "If you don't give up your career, this will be true."

"So I can't have feelings?"

Zhou Xiufang frowned.

She has switched from what kind of person her boyfriend is to whether she can touch other men.

"That's not the case. I just said you can't get married, not that you can't date."

Gu Xicao spread out her hands, "You came back from America. America should be much more open than here. I don't need to tell you anything else."

Zhou Xiufang looked at Gu Xicao and her face turned red instantly.

She took out a few bills from her pocket, without counting them, and stuffed them directly into Gu Xicao's pockets: "Thank you, Master. Jiaying and I will leave first."

"Give me too much, I'll give you change."

When Gu Xicao saw that Zhou Xiufang had given him one thousand, he hurried to return the money.

Zhou Xiufang waved her hand and said, "The extra amount is my apology for my misunderstanding of you. Please don't be polite to me. I will definitely help you again if I have the chance."

"Sure, sure."

Seeing Zhou Xiufang say this, Gu Xicao was no longer polite.

She put the money away. She earned more than 1,100 yuan in the morning, and she could pay the rent to the landlord when she returned.

Wang Laoshi looked at Gu Xicao with mixed envy: "Well, Master Gu, it is better to demolish a temple than to break up a marriage. Aren't you afraid that you are wrong?"

"If I was wrong, why would she be so excited just now?"

Gu Xicao said: "Besides, it's not a pity to lose a man of that level."

After seeing off the excited Sun Jiaying and repeatedly promising to support her when she became rich, Zhou Xiufang returned home.

She rented a house of more than 900 square feet in Hong Kong. A place of almost 100 square meters is quite spacious for one person to live in.

Zhou Xiufang had just arrived home and was thinking about Gu Xicao's words.

After learning that she would achieve something in the future, the first thing Zhou Xiufang thought about was what to do with her boyfriend Chen Qun.

We have to break up, but it’s not about how to break up.

Just as she was thinking about it, the phone rang. It was Chen Qun calling, "Xiufang, you have a day off today, why don't I bring my mom's cooking over, open a bottle of good wine, and have a candlelight dinner together?"

Zhou Xiufang hesitated.

If Gu Xicao hadn't pointed it out before, she really wouldn't have thought much about it.

But after hearing what Chen Qun said, Zhou Xiufang felt something was strange. The two of them always had dinner at her house when they went on dates, and every time, Chen Qun would either bring the food over or order fast food takeout. But every time, Chen Qun would say he wanted to drink her good wine.

Zhou Xiufang didn’t notice this detail before. Her mother and stepfather were very generous to her, and she was also a very generous person, so she didn’t care about it so much.

But now that I think about it, Chen Qun basically didn't spend any money on every date.

If calculated based on the price of wine, Chen Qun would have made a lot of money.

"Order it. My mom made fried fish specially for you. Fish is not cheap nowadays."

Seeing that Zhou Xiufang didn't answer for a long time, Chen Qun urged her.

Just as Zhou Xiufang was about to refuse, a phone call came in. She quickly made an excuse: "Wait a minute, there's a phone call coming in. We'll talk later."

She hung up the line. The manager of the advertising department said, "Xiufang, are you free tonight? Our company has several clients from the United States, but our translator is going to Macau today. This case is urgent!"

"I am free, of course I am free. When and where shall we meet? I will help you no matter how busy you are with the company."

When Zhou Xiufang heard what was going on, she immediately agreed.

The manager heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly reported the time and place. It was obvious that this case was very urgent, and it would only take half an hour for Zhou Xiufang to change her clothes and take the bus.

Zhou Xiufang quickly called back: "Ah Qun, I have to go back to the company to work overtime, you don't have to come, just eat by yourself."

"What's so important about the company? Is it more important than me? I've been waiting for you to have dinner."

Chen Qun had already planned to open the bottle of good wine from Zhou Xiufang, but when he heard Zhou Xiufang's refusal, his tone suddenly became unpleasant.

Zhou Xiufang was stunned. If it was before, she would feel embarrassed. After all, Chen Qun's words were thoughtful. But now, without the filter, she felt that Chen Qun's words were outrageous: "You wait for me to eat? But I didn't ask you to wait for me, and it was you who decided to come to my place to eat, and you didn't tell me in advance. Now the company has something to do. If I don't rush over, and my boss scolds me later, will you be responsible?"

Chen Qun didn't expect Zhou Xiufang to react so strongly. He was annoyed but also felt nervous. "I, I didn't mean that. I just feel sorry for you - Dududu."

The call was hung up. Chen Qun looked at the phone, his face flushed with anger.

Chen's mother came over and asked, "Well, did Xiufang agree?"

"No, she is busy with work." Chen Qun looked unhappy.

Aunt Chen said unhappily, "Why are you busy with work? She's already 25, and she'll be 30 in the blink of an eye. I tell you, after you get married, you must give me a grandson as soon as possible."

The first time Zhou Xiufang hung up the phone with Chen Qun, she felt somehow happy.

Perhaps it was because Chen Qun had come uninvited too many times before, using the excuse of expressing his affection to disrupt her plans in various ways.

Zhou Xiufang felt that the other person was too considerate, but she was also a little unhappy.
