Chapter 423 The Gambler's Wife's Redemption Story (Part 13)



After bidding farewell to Boss Liu, Lin Xue took the house deeds, land deeds, and the box of silver ingots and left the Liu family.

Lin Xue bought a house nearby, hoping that Mr. Liu would take good care of her family.

After all, in Shanghai, Boss Liu has some influence, while she is just an ordinary citizen who currently has neither money nor power.

Carrying her belongings, Lin Xue arrived at her new home.

I unlocked the door with the key and carefully explored the upstairs and downstairs.

Lin Xue had fallen in love with the house just by looking at its exterior. In this day and age, being able to live in such a small villa meant that one was considered wealthy.

Moreover, the layout and decoration of this house are all in the retro style that Lin Xue likes.

That doesn't seem right either. Isn't the retro style she sees the most popular style right now?

He put the box of silver dollars into his bedroom. Unexpectedly, there was a telephone installed in the house. It seemed that the telephone was left by the previous owner.

It seems that Mr. Liu must have put in a lot of effort to keep the right to use this phone number.

This small villa is semi-enclosed, with many flowers, trees and shrubs planted outside the railings, making for a beautiful view.

Moreover, there is a lot of space between each house, and this layout, which allows for privacy and quietness, suits Lin Xue's preferences.

That very evening, Lin Xue brought her entire family to the new house. As for the furniture in the old house, it was all handmade by Lin Xue herself, and she couldn't bear to throw it away, so she had it all moved over later.

Lin Xue doesn't plan to rent out the old house; she intends to keep it for her son.

In the vast city of Haishi, although the original house was near the suburbs, it was still quite rare to have such a large house.

You should know that many people who fled to Haishi still live in cramped and dark shantytowns, and many want to rent a better place but have no way to do so.

As soon as Lin Xue announces that she wants to rent out her property, people immediately scramble to give her money.

After moving in, Lin Xue and her family spent two days settling in, and then enrolled their two children in the nearest primary school.

Even while attending school, Zhu Zi hasn't given up his fishmonger business.

He gets up early every morning, hops on his bicycle, and goes to find his friends.

When it's time for breakfast, the boy will come back on time. After eating and taking a shower, he will obediently take his younger sister to school.

After school, the boy disappeared again. Lin Xue knew what he was doing, but she didn't stop him.

Zhu Zi is already 10 years old, but he has to start from the first grade of elementary school.

Lin Xue didn't expect him to become a top student or anything, as long as he wasn't illiterate, that would be fine.

"Ring ring..."

"Hello, who is this?"

"Mr. Liu, is there something you need from me?"

"Translation?...2 PM...50 yuan for two hours?"

"Mr. Liu, do you think I need this 50 yuan?"

"Hmm? You owe me a favor?... Okay, then send a car to pick me up later!"

The caller was Mr. Liu, who asked Lin Xue to accompany him to an embassy to act as his translator for two hours.

He originally said he would pay Lin Xue 50 yuan, but when he saw that she wasn't interested, he quickly changed his mind and said he was willing to owe her a favor, and that she could ask him for help if she ever needed anything in the future.

Only then did Lin Xue agree to the other party's request, asking them to send a driver to pick her up.

One of Boss Liu's drivers is her husband, Liu Hai.

Speaking of which, this Boss Liu and Liu Hai are quite destined, at least they both have the surname Liu.

Outsiders who didn't know the reason might have thought the two were related!

In the afternoon, Lin Xue, dressed in formal attire, got into Liu Hai's car.

"Honey, you're going to be the boss's translator, aren't you nervous?"

Now, Liu Hai is quite skilled at driving, unlike when he first started driving and was too afraid to touch anything.

"What's there to be nervous about? Your wife is truly talented and capable; how could she be scared by such a small scene?"

Lin Xue calmly sat in the passenger seat, picked up Liu Hai's water cup, and took a sip.

"How old are you? Why are you already soaking goji berries in a thermos like other people do?"

After swallowing a mouthful of water, Lin Xue felt only a sweet taste in her mouth.

Looking at the large handful of red goji berries in the thermos, this bastard has been incredibly energetic every night since he stopped doing manual labor. With his physique, does he really need to drink this stuff?

What's going on?

Are you trying to kill us?!

"Isn't this just in case? I've seen other drivers start soaking goji berries in water, so I need to nourish my body in advance. What if one day I can't satisfy you anymore? With your skills, you'd probably just dump me, wouldn't you?"

Liu Hai was spouting nonsensical words, but his expression was one of great self-satisfaction.

"Tch, that's so inappropriate!"

Seeing his expression, Lin Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"Hey, we're here!"

"Go, honey! I'm waiting for you down here!"

After dropping her off, Liu Hai personally got out of the car and opened the door for Lin Xue, watching her walk into the luxurious building.

He then got back into the car, drove it to a place where it wouldn't get in the way, and waited for Lin Xue to come out.

"Miss Lin, you've finally arrived!"

"Let's go in!"

Boss Liu seemed to have been waiting for a while. When he saw Lin Xue arrive, he immediately greeted her and led Lin Xue and another man in black toward one of the conference rooms.

Mr. Liu came to see this foreigner this time because he wanted to buy a batch of weapons from him.

His other secretary, although she had also studied the language, didn't speak it very well.

Boss Liu was worried that the secretary might not express herself clearly and could be taken advantage of by the other party, so he called Lin Xue to come along.

Throughout the entire process, Lin Xue merely acted as an emotionless translation machine.

Her spoken English was so good that the foreigner could hardly find any fault with it.

Moreover, even when it comes to technical terms, Lin Xue can translate them clearly for Boss Liu, at least making sure he understands what they mean.

This left the foreigners who wanted to set traps helpless. In the end, at the end of the meeting, they even tried to poach Lin Xue with a high salary to be their secretary.

Unfortunately, Lin Xue was just an emotionless translator; no matter what the other party said, she politely and tactfully refused.

Thanks to Lin Xue's involvement, Boss Liu did not suffer any losses in this negotiation.

Moreover, because of Lin Xue, the other party also believed that Boss Liu was a capable person, so they were willing to give him some concessions.

In this day and age, a good translator is really important.

She not only ensures her side isn't taken advantage of by others, but also showcases her team's strength.
