Chapter 91
Old Yi turned around and walked towards the card table in astonishment.
I found my home over there.
Mrs. Yi said, "Mrs. Mai, you still know her, right?"
"Mr. Yi must have forgotten."
"I haven't forgotten, Mai..."
When Lao Yi said this, he saw that her eyes were full of affection, like a wronged kitten about to cry, and she just stared at him blankly.
I thought to myself, “This drama is too much.”
But he couldn't resist this look for a moment.
But he continued with a calm smile: "How is Mr. Mai, how is business?"
Wang Jiazhi said, "It's quite difficult." Then she lowered her head and smiled sadly, not looking at him anymore. She was afraid that tears would fall if she looked at him again.
Back in the room, he walked to the door. In the dim light, she looked at him. She had a thousand words to say, but now she couldn't say a single word. She could only say one stupid thing, and she felt stupid herself.
"It's been three years. How are you?"
Old Yi, who was originally in a heavy mood, was actually amused by this silly remark.
It's been three years, and this girl still doesn't understand anything and is so stupid.
"How about you? How are you?"
Wang Jiazhi said sadly, "It's not easy to meet each other alive."
Old Yi was actually touched.
For the past three years, everyone has had a hard time. Although they are dressed in gorgeous clothes, they look so haggard and depressed. They must be suffering in dire straits.
Wang Jiazhi returned to the card table and feigned conciliatory conversation with the other ladies. She forgot what they said as soon as she heard it, and she couldn't recall what she had said to them even after she had spoken it. She simply stared at the door, knowing he wouldn't appear again, but staring blankly nonetheless.
They played mahjong until one o'clock. When she got home, she seemed exhausted and didn't even have the strength to take a shower. She struggled to change her clothes and lay down to sleep.
I was tired, but couldn't sleep. Memories of the past flashed before my eyes like fragments from a movie.
She fell into a hazy sleep, dreaming of many things from the past, and him sitting beside the bed crying.
When she woke up again, it was already eight o'clock. She packed up and her mother told her that he had gone out.
Wang Jiazhi felt very disappointed and went to the yard to touch the big dog.
It stuck out its tongue and tickled her with its claws.
My mother was very surprised. The dog was very shy. How could it be so close to Wang Jiazhi after only one day?
He didn't come back for three days, and when he did, he went into the study and left early the next morning. He was gone for several more days.
During the meeting, Kuang Yumin asked about the progress and looked disappointed when he learned that there had been no further developments.
"I need money."
Kuang Yumin gave her the money and said with a smile, "You play mahjong every day, but you haven't made any progress."
She didn't respond.
She'd felt bad about losing money in the past, and she still felt bad about it now. But back then, Lao Yi had told her that if you didn't spend the money you'd extorted, others would squander it, leaving you with nothing. If someone offered you a gift, and you refused, they'd have someone else to give you, and the end result would be the same.
Wang Jiazhi didn't know that Kuang Yumin actually reported more expenses to his superiors than the actual amount, and the rest could be left for Kuang Yumin's own small circle.
Lai Xiujin used her share of the money to buy a vibrant apricot-yellow coat, but she couldn't wear it outdoors, so she locked herself in her room every day admiring it. The other three boys went to prostitutes several times. Kuang Yumin hoped to win back some hearts this way.
Kuang Yumin smiled and said, "Everyone cares about you."
Wang Jiazhi sneered, "Really? Thank you."
Seeing her like this, Kuang Yumin stopped talking.
Wang Jiazhi pondered what to do next. Although she was content with life and didn't mind death, she still wanted to live.
Now the people on Lao Yi's side were looking at her, and the people on Lao Wu's side were also looking at her. It was really difficult to run away.
If you want to run, you have to escape from Shanghai.
Given Kuang Yumin's style, if she didn't leave Shanghai, they would definitely put the blame for her aunt's affairs on her. As they said, they would never let her go even if they had a hard time.
Birds of a feather flock together. How could I have been so blind in the first place?
Thinking of this, Wang Jiazhi suddenly asked, "Where is Meng Shunying?"
Kuang Yumin's expression suddenly became terrified.
Wang Jiazhi was very surprised why he had that expression.
She felt that even if Meng Shunying loved Kuang Yumin, she wouldn't be so foolish as to flee with him. Furthermore, Meng Shunying's family was powerful, so they wouldn't force her to do anything. She probably went home, but it was unclear whether she still had contact with Kuang Yumin.
At that time, she just asked Lai Xiujin out of curiosity, and Lai Xiujin's reaction was very strange. At this time, she thought of her again.
Wang Jiazhi looked out the window at the scenery and began to lament and blame herself again. If Gao Qiaochu and Meng Shunying were different, they would definitely not be as stupid as she was.
