After getting an IV drip, Jiang Xin returned to the company to continue working. Unexpectedly, the boss gave her a large red envelope because of her good work attitude and told her to take care of her health and to take leave to rest if she really couldn't.
Jiang Xin looked at the red envelope her boss had sent and thought to herself, "With this money, I don't need to eat those discounted foods anymore."
Jiang Xin was still feeling a bit unwell when she got off work in the evening, but thinking about the expensive taxi fare, she gritted her teeth and went into the subway station.
Today, the subway was not only crowded, but also very noisy. There were quite a few children in the carriage, and the noise from their playing gave Jiang Xin a headache.
Through the reflection in the glass, Jiang Xin saw her disheveled self, dressed in ordinary clothes, with a pale and tired face. Jiang Xin closed her eyes and looked away in evasion.
She had a privileged life since childhood, and later, after joining the Ye family, she lived a life of luxury. When had she ever suffered such hardship?
"Just bear with it a little longer. Endure until Mom and Dad relent and accept Yanling. What's a little suffering for love?" Jiang Xin encouraged herself.
When Jiang Xin got home, she saw her aunt cooking in the kitchen. She happily called out "Auntie" and then went back to her room to change her clothes.
Her aunt smiled and responded, but as she turned away, a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes. This girl is really shameless. How long has she been staying at her house? Aren't you leaving yet?
Jiang Xin was unaware of her aunt's complaints. She was secretly glad that her aunt had returned, otherwise, with her so busy, who would cook for Yanling?
She couldn't bear to see Yanling go hungry.
During dinner, Jiang Xin's aunt put a chicken wing on her plate, and Jiang Xin thanked her with a big smile.
Jiang Xin had boundless patience with Yan Ling's family, and she was easily moved by even the smallest acts of kindness they showed her.
After finishing her meal, Jiang Xin said, "I'm full, you can continue eating." Then she put her bowl on the table, got up, and left.
My aunt's expression turned slightly unnatural for a moment; she forced a smile but didn't say anything.
After Yanling left the table, Auntie's face fell as she complained to Uncle, "Old Jiang, what's this? This is so inconsiderate! Don't you even bother to clear your bowl after you finish eating? You just leave like that?"
"Sigh, he was a bit immature. I'll talk to Yanling about it later. But..."
The uncle paused mid-sentence, his gaze sweeping over Yanling's room. Seeing the door tightly shut, he lowered his voice and said, "Yanling's girlfriend is a daughter of the Ye family. You'll have to be patient for now."
Aunt looked at her husband in surprise and asked tentatively, "You mean the Ye family from Chenguang Group?"
The uncle nodded knowingly, but his eyes betrayed his smugness.
My aunt almost gasped out. She quickly covered her mouth and whispered, "Then who is she?"
"You had a fight with your family, so coming to stay with us is a good opportunity for you and Yanling to get to know each other better."
The meaning behind the uncle's words was very clear, and the aunt's expression immediately changed.
She smiled as she cleared the dishes from the table, her earlier sarcastic tone completely gone.
She kept saying, "Xin Xin must be so tired after a long day at work. I'll take care of all the housework from now on. We may not have much money, but we're a happy family. We want Xin Xin to feel the warmth of family."
Hearing her words, her uncle secretly gave her a thumbs up.
Jiang Xin heard her aunt say she wanted to give Yanling the warmth of home while she was in the room. She immediately gave Yanling a big hug and said with emotion, "Yanling, your aunt is so kind, your family is so kind."
Yan Ling stroked her hair and said in a lazy voice, "Aren't my uncle and aunt also your uncle and aunt? They treat you as family, so naturally they will treat you well."
I know what you want, and I will give you a real home.
At this moment, all the bitterness in Jiang Xin's heart was soothed, and she felt that she was the happiest person in the world.
