Going back?
After all, Lin Guixiang had just gone through a breakup.
With a smile, Zhao Cuinong said, "Big sister, shall I take you out for a drink?"
A drink could dispel a thousand worries.
After getting drunk tonight, tomorrow would be a new day.
"No need, I’m already fine," Lin Guixiang said with a smile to Zhao Cuinong.
Zhao Cuinong was taken aback, "Big sister, are you really okay?"
"Yes, I’m really fine," Lin Guixiang said half-jokingly, "Men are plentiful."
She wasn’t the type to be trapped by emotions.
Zhao Cuinong also laughed, "Then shall we go back now?"
"Yes." Lin Guixiang nodded slightly.
Zhao Cuinong started the engine and drove away.
The car had just started.
Zhao Cuinong saw Mu Baicheng arriving at the underground garage with Zheng Niannian.
Mu Baicheng was putting shopping bags into the trunk.
Zheng Niannian, meanwhile, opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
Zhao Cuinong frowned tightly and spat out, "Shameless dogs!"
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang looked out the window.
Her expression darkened briefly before she turned her gaze back.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Mu Baicheng got into the driver’s seat and was just about to start the engine when he noticed that the Dongfeng Citroen in front looked familiar.
It seemed familiar.
At that moment, Mu Baicheng suddenly remembered that Zhao Cuinong drove a Dongfeng Citroen.
Could it be...
Was the driver Zhao Cuinong?
No.
It couldn’t be possible.
It shouldn’t be such a coincidence.
Furthermore,
if the driver were really Zhao Cuinong, given her temperament, she would have definitely come down and scolded him by now.
Thinking this, Mu Baicheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing him like this, Zheng Niannian curiously asked, "Brother Baicheng, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing," Mu Baicheng said.
As he spoke, Mu Baicheng then asked, "My sister asked me to take you out for dinner, what would you like to eat tonight?"
In fact, Mu Baicheng didn’t want to have dinner with Zheng Niannian.
But when delivering Buddha, deliver him to the West.
Since he wanted to properly thank Zheng Niannian for taking care of his mother, he couldn’t give up halfway.
Zheng Niannian smiled, "I’m fine with anything, you decide, Brother Baicheng."
Mu Baicheng thought for a moment, "How about Western food?"
He had seen a good Western restaurant and was planning to take Lin Guixiang there.
This time, it was perfect for a trial visit.
If the taste was bad, he would choose another one.
"Okay," Zheng Niannian nodded.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a Western restaurant.
**
Zhao Cuinong dropped Lin Guixiang off at her home.
Lin Wu and Shaliva were nestled on the couch watching TV. Hearing footsteps, Lin Wu looked back slightly, "Mom, Aunt, you’re back."
Although Lin Guixiang tried to muster a smile, Lin Wu noticed something was off, "Mom, what’s wrong with you?"
It seemed like Lin Guixiang had been crying.
Her eyes were very red.
"I’m fine," Lin Guixiang said.
Fine?
Lin Guixiang’s appearance didn’t look fine at all.
Lin Wu turned off the TV, "Aunt, what exactly happened to my mom?"
Zhao Cuinong knew she couldn’t keep this from Lin Wu.
Moreover, as her daughter, she had the right to know.
After all, Mu Baicheng lived just downstairs.
With this in mind, Zhao Cuinong looked at Lin Guixiang, "Big sister, I..."
Although Zhao Cuinong hadn’t finished her sentence, Lin Guixiang already knew what she was going to say and nodded, "Yes."
Zhao Cuinong then turned to Lin Wu, "Xiao Wu, your mom and your Uncle Mu have broken up."
Broken up?
Lin Wu was stunned.
"Why?"
The breakup was quite unexpected for Lin Wu.
Zhao Cuinong explained what had happened over the past few days.
Lin Wu quickly sorted out her thoughts and approached Lin Guixiang, "Mom, Aunt is right, if all you gain from a relationship is compromise and emotional exhaustion, then it’s time to cut your losses."
As she spoke, Lin Wu hugged Lin Guixiang, "Mom, you deserve better."
In that moment, Lin Guixiang felt as if her battered heart was gradually healing.
She had a career, and such an outstanding daughter, why should she be sad over a man?
Zhao Cuinong continued, "Xiao Wu, talk to your mom properly, that indecisive jerk Mu Baicheng doesn’t deserve your mom."
"Yes."
After comforting Lin Guixiang for a while longer, Zhao Cuinong finally went home.
At home, Lin Bingqiang was helping his son with a thinking class.
Seeing Zhao Cuinong come back, he curiously asked, "What did you and big sister buy today? Why did you come back so late?"
"Don’t even mention it," Zhao Cuinong was furious as she recalled today’s events, "Do you know what we saw at the mall today?"
Lin Bingqiang wasn’t interested in gossip, but since his wife brought it up, he still cooperatively asked, "What did you see?"
