Chapter 13 I'm a Brother-Supporting Demon 13
Dong Shuxiang was also stunned.
Ji Huaizhi told her that there would be a surprise in her royalties this month, but she didn't expect it to be such a big surprise.
Pinch me.
Ji Huaizhi gently pinched her cheek: "It's true, your husband is a chosen one when it comes to writing."
Dong Shuxiang: "You're so amazing, honey! How did you do that?"
Ji Huaizhi smiled faintly: "It's probably because of the subject matter. I looked at some popular articles and decided to give it a try."
He wrote a historical text.
The platform itself already had good traffic, and with his frequent daily updates, readers often said that he deserved credit for his hard work, even if he didn't achieve great success.
The content received a very good response. Ji Huaizhi attributed this to his own experience living in that era, which led to his in-depth writing and made the content very relatable to the audience.
"Great job! Keep it up." Dong Shuxiang hugged his head and kissed his forehead. "Looks like the gift I bought for you is just right to celebrate."
"Um?"
Dong Shuxiang chuckled and pulled him to the balcony to look.
"It arrived yesterday, and I'm leaving it here to let it air out."
It's an office chair, but it looks very comfortable to sit in.
"Go try it out, this ergonomic chair was recommended to me by my colleague." Dong Shuxiang pulled him and pressed his shoulders down to sit down.
"You won't have to worry about back pain anymore."
Ji Huaizhi took a look around and found the chair to be very comfortable, with a lumbar support: "It must be expensive, right?"
"Anything that's good for your health is worth it."
He pulled Dong Shuxiang onto his lap.
Ji Huaizhi buried his face in her neck: "Shushu, why are you so good to me?"
We are all fine.
Dong Shuxiang was very satisfied with his attitude of handing over his salary without saying a word this time.
The two played around on the balcony for a while, then decided to go out for a nice meal to celebrate.
"Isn't this seafood buffet a bit too extravagant?" Dong Shuxiang asked, frowning as she sat down.
It costs over 600 yuan per person, so a meal for two would cost over 1,000 yuan.
How much seafood could you buy if you were just eating at home?
Although she thought 1,200 yuan was a small amount before marriage, she realized how expensive daily necessities were once she was in charge of the household.
Ji Huaizhi was amused by her appearance: "Don't forget how much your husband earned this month, let's splurge a little."
After the waiter finished his introduction, the two went to get the seafood they wanted.
The restaurant offers a shelling service, so the two can chat while eating and occasionally share interesting stories from their work.
"Tell me, is that person out of their mind? We're clearly at the same level, but she keeps pushing work onto us, and then during meetings she says she worked overtime to finish it."
"This person is really going too far. Has he ever bullied you?" Ji Huaizhi put the shellfish meat he had just peeled into her bowl.
"No, it's just talk. Most people in our company are great. You help me this time, I'll help you next time."
Most people are fine, but there are a few who are not.
Ji Huaizhi lowered his eyes: "After dinner, let's go check out the car."
"Why did you suddenly decide to look at the bikes?" Dong Shuxiang asked in surprise. "Actually, electric bikes are quite convenient."
"I was going to buy it anyway, so I'll enjoy it sooner rather than later."
"At least it won't get windy or rainy."
Although Ji Huaizhi's current royalties are unstable, he has ways to stabilize them.
I had always planned to buy her a car.
If her colleagues find out she's unemployed, they might take the opportunity to ridicule her, but if they could buy her a new car at this time, everyone would know she has the means to support herself.
“Huaizhi, look, isn’t that your brother?” Dong Shuxiang put down the crab in her hand and pointed to the person inside the glass opposite.
Ji Huaizhi turned around and saw that it was indeed Ji Huailin.
He was wearing a leather jacket and a watch on his wrist, which he would occasionally raise.
Across from me sat a woman with large, wavy hair and wearing a fishtail skirt.
If I remember correctly, this woman named Zeng Min had very high standards when looking for a husband in her previous life. The two of them were almost getting married in their previous life, no wonder she kept thinking about sucking the blood of the original owner.
What kind of public persona does Ji Huailin present to himself?
Ji Huaizhi turned around and hummed in agreement: "It's him."
Dong Shuxiang looked at the waiter next to her: "Is the area inside the glass also part of your store?"
The waiter nodded: "Yes, but the food inside is à la carte, unlike the buffet outside."
Dong Shuxiang raised an eyebrow and looked at Ji Huaizhi: "How much is the average cost per person there?"
"It costs 1,500 yuan per person, but the buffet style is more cost-effective, although the service inside is better." The waiter explained it very clearly.
It's practically saying that anyone eating inside is a sucker.
"Your brother is really generous. Before, the most he would ever treat you to was a hot pot meal, right?"
Dong Shuxiang was dissatisfied with Ji Huailin.
Ji Huaizhi: "That hot pot meal cost 300 yuan, and after we finished eating, they turned around and asked me for 3,000 yuan."
Dong Shuxiang laughed in exasperation: "You really are a sucker."
"You yourself are frugal with food and clothing, but you gave him the whole province."
The waiters, sensing the awkward atmosphere, avoided looking at people and silently steamed and peeled the seafood for them.
During this meal, Dong Shuxiang channeled her resentment into her appetite, and the waiter peeled off as much food as she could eat.
While eating, he kept staring at Ji Huailin's table. After staring for a while, Ji Huailin also saw the backs of his sister-in-law and elder brother.
I was shocked to see them eating here.
I never imagined that the couple was living such a carefree life.
They did not become destitute because they lost their jobs.
While Minmin went to the restroom, I took out my phone and snapped a picture of them eating.
“Your brother took the photos, and if I’m not mistaken, he’s going to go back and complain again.” During this time, the Ji family hadn’t contacted her, and Dong Shuxiang had been living a very comfortable life.
However, since the other party is Ji Huaizhi's biological parents, it is impossible to completely cut off contact.
Ji Huaizhi chuckled: "It's alright, people's hearts don't grow cold in a day."
"I won't interfere in their affairs."
Dong Shuxiang felt relieved after hearing him say that.
Anyway, all the money is with me.
Ji Huaizhi picked up a towel and wiped his hands: "If we find a suitable one, let's finalize the deal."
This woman has already started talking to Ji Huailin.
I reckon they'll be talking about marriage soon, and knowing their nature, their first target will be the couple.
They knew he had previously recovered 250,000 yuan of debt.
Then they got back the money Ji Huailin had spent on buying the job.
He was laid off but still has severance pay.
So when the time comes, they will still shamelessly come to "borrow" money.
Dong Shuxiang thought for a moment and nodded, instantly understanding what he meant.
