Chapter 40: Not a Sea of Bitterness
“It’s not the sea of suffering.”
Fu Tanxiu left the Fu family after saying a few words.
Qi Lianxin sat on the sofa in a daze.
Fu Song's face looked extremely ugly.
Fu Yao shook Qi Lianxin's arm: "Mom, what should I do? Is my brother crazy? Why does he still want to remarry Qiao Bei? I'm so angry. I don't want to be a family with Qiao Bei anymore."
Qi Lianxin didn't say anything, as if she understood something, and went upstairs without saying a word.
Fu Yao was so angry that she jumped up and down, thinking about how to stop Qiao Bei from remarrying her brother.
Oh, by the way, there is also Sister Yuci!
In a dessert shop, Meng Yuci sat opposite Fu Yao and pushed a strawberry cake in front of her.
"Yaoyao, have some of this. Their strawberry cake is delicious. I remember you like these cakes."
Fu Yao was so moved that her eyes sparkled: "Sister Yuci, you are so good to me. You remember what I like to eat. If you were my sister-in-law, I would be so happy."
Meng Yuci covered her mouth and laughed: "You are exaggerating, it's just a strawberry cake."
"That's not a matter of a piece of cake. My brother isn't as nice to me as you are. He only knows how to protect Qiao Bei."
Of course Meng Yuci knew it, she had known it a long time ago, so she was annoyed with Qiao Bei at that time.
She asked calmly, "What do you want to talk to me about today?"
Fu Yao: "Sister Yuci, Qiao Bei really gave birth to a child for my brother. My parents found Qiao Bei and told her a few words. She then complained to my brother, and he got furious when he got home."
Meng Yuci's expression changed. He didn't expect that Fu Tanxiu was still so protective of Qiao Bei.
"Your brother is going too far."
Fu Yao: "That's right, do you know what my brother said?"
"What?"
Meng Yuci instinctively knew that this was not what she wanted to hear.
Fu Yao: "My brother said he wants to remarry Qiao Bei! Do you think he's crazy?"
Meng Yuci's shoulders slumped, and he looked like he had lost his soul.
Fu Yao waved her hand in front of her: "Sister Yuci? Are you okay?"
Meng Yuci's eyes turned red and tears fell.
Fu Yao hurriedly handed her a tissue: "Sister Yuci, don't be sad. My brother was just bewitched by Qiao Bei for a moment. Don't worry, our whole family won't let her succeed. I stand by you. I only recognize you as my sister-in-law."
Meng Yuci wiped her tears and said, "Yaoyao, thank you, but your brother... maybe he and I really are not destined to be together anymore."
Fu Yao: "Who said that? You two are the perfect match. I'm rooting for you. Sister Yuci, you have to cheer up and snatch my brother away."
Meng Yuci: "How do we grab it?"
Fu Yao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you."
Meng Yuci was moved and held her hand: "Yaoyao, thank you!"
"Sister Yuci, why bother thanking me? You will be my sister-in-law from now on."
Meng Yuci lowered her head shyly.
"Yaoyao, eat the cake quickly."
Fu Yao scooped a piece and put it in her mouth: "Delicious!"
…
The most luxurious bar in Longcheng.
Those who come here are all rich kids or celebrities.
Second floor box.
Fu Tanxiu quickly drank a whole bottle of Hennessy cognac.
Shi Qian stopped him: "Although it's not expensive, that's not how you drink wine."
Fu Tanxiu pushed his hand away, poured the last bit of wine into the glass, and drank it in one gulp.
Then he leaned his head on the sofa.
Shi Qian: "What's wrong with you?"
Fu Tanxiu reached out and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, looking lazy.
“I just think I’m a bit of an asshole.”
Shi Qian tilted his head: "What the hell?"
Fu Tanxiu didn't look at him and seemed to be talking to himself.
"When we divorced, she asked me for the house, but I didn't give it to her. She asked me for money, but I didn't give it to her either. I was so angry that I even took back her wedding ring. Tell me, am I a jerk?"
Shi Qian knew that this man went crazy because of Qiao Bei.
Haha, he even forgot that Qiao Bei had cheated him and he was feeling guilty.
He really wanted to say that Qiao Bei deserved it.
But he didn't have the courage.
Will Fu Tanxiu beat him up?
He said, "It's not too late to give it now."
Fu Tanxiu put a hand on his forehead and said, "It's too late! Tell me, why didn't I notice her abnormality at the beginning? If I had discovered it earlier, we wouldn't have divorced."
Shi Qian rolled his eyes.
I thought to myself: Brother, if we hadn’t gotten divorced, you wouldn’t have realized that you like her.
Fu Tanxiu continued, "The house she lived in was very small. She bought it with the money from selling her bags. She said she wanted to return the money to me, to return the money I gave her. When I heard these words, I felt sad and regretful. What did I do back then?"
Shi Qian: "That bag is quite valuable."
"Shi Qian, I'm such a bastard, she won't forgive me, right?"
Shi Qian took a sip of wine: "If she is sensible, she probably won't blame you."
"Get lost! Beibei is very sensible and well behaved..."
Shi Qian couldn't help but roll his eyes again.
It’s over! This man has completely fallen for Qiao Bei.
He muttered, "I'd better focus on running the company instead of having to deal with love. It's so creepy that I'm always so desperate!"
…
After Qiao Doudou fell asleep, Qiao Bei called the two month nannies over.
She said embarrassedly, "Sister Zeng, Sister Song, I want to discuss something with you."
Sister Zeng and Sister Song guessed what she wanted to say.
Sister Song spoke first: "Ms. Qiao, my daughter is about to give birth, and I want to go back to take care of her. Doudou is old enough, and Sister Zeng can take care of her alone. If you think it's okay, I'll pack up and go home tomorrow."
Qiao Bei was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
She was about to say that she didn't have that much money and could only keep one person, but that would always offend the other person.
Now that Sister Song spoke up, it reduced her embarrassment.
"Sister Song, I'll give you my salary."
Sister Song waved her hand: "No need, Mr. Fu has already given it."
"How many?"
"Before we came, we agreed on a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan."
Qiao Bei was not surprised. She knew that a good confinement nanny would cost so much.
She knew the price so that she could return the money to Fu Tanxiu later.
"Sister Zeng, I will pay your salary from now on."
Sister Zeng was embarrassed: "Mr. Fu said he would give it to me, and I didn't even need to ask him. The money was automatically transferred to me."
Qiao Bei thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's do this for now."
Later, she talked to Fu Tanxiu and told him not to give it to her.
She earns a lot now and can afford the salary of a confinement nanny.
After Sister Song left, Qiao Bei told Sister Zeng: "Sister Zeng, just take good care of Doudou. You don't have to cook for me. I'll be back early after get off work and I'll do it."
Sister Zeng certainly hopes so.
It's too busy to take care of the children and cook at the same time.
Qiao Doudou can now drink milk powder completely, which saves a lot of trouble.
But every month, the money for milk powder is also a considerable expense.
More and more people come to see Qiao Bei for treatment.
She is very busy every day.
Meng Yuci was waiting outside with her mother.
"Mom, why don't we go to a big hospital?"
