"Brother Hanqiao, you have to promise me you won't do this kind of thing with her again, or I'll get jealous," Sun Xiaoya said, pouting.
Zhao Hanqiao agreed immediately; with Sun Xiaoya by his side, he couldn't accept anyone else.
"I don't want anyone but you, really, Xiaoya. You have to believe Hanqiao, Hanqiao loves you. If it weren't for our age difference, if I could have met you sooner, I definitely wouldn't have chosen anyone else. In the end, it's fate's cruel joke that made us like this." Zhao Hanqiao sighed, his face full of sorrow.
Sun Xiaoya didn't want Zhao Hanqiao to be sad, so she said nonchalantly:
"I'm a few years younger than you, so what? If I had met you earlier, Xu Yiyi wouldn't have existed! Anyway, we're together now, we're true love, Hanqiao, you can't make me sad."
"Don't worry, Xiaoya, I will never let you down."
Zhao Hanqiao's assurances pleased Sun Xiaoya.
Zhao Hanqiao returned home feeling a little embarrassed, but fortunately Xu Yiyi simply asked, "Why didn't you come home last night?"
Zhao Hanqiao smiled and explained to her, "I called you, but you didn't answer. I had a few drinks with some people and fell asleep. Several of us were drunk and lying in the private room. When I woke up, it was already midnight. I called you, but you didn't answer, so I didn't come back. I slept in a friend's car all night because I was afraid of waking you up when I came back."
Xu Yiyi curled her lips, neither saying she believed it nor that she didn't.
Zhao Hanqiao smiled, looking at the extra bags in the house, and asked in surprise, "How come you have so many clothes? Did you buy them all? Are they all designer brands? How much did they cost?"
Xu Yiyi looked up from the magazine and smiled. "It really costs a lot of money. I just got paid, what's wrong with buying some clothes? Is it wrong for a woman to treat herself well?"
Zhao Hanqiao frowned, somewhat displeased, and solemnly lectured Xu Yiyi:
“Yiyi, you weren’t like this before. These clothes must have cost you a month’s salary, right? And that might not even be enough. You’re spending all your money on clothes. How are we going to live? Your company isn’t even enough to cover the cost of selling clothes. If you keep doing this, how are we going to make a living? I’ve told you before that we both need to be thrifty. Thriftyness is a virtue, don’t you know that?”
Zhao Hanqiao's words made Xu Yiyi feel uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.
Frugality is a virtue? Zhao Hanqiao just brought Sun Xiaoya out of a high-end hotel, and he's already telling her to be frugal? How could this man have the nerve to say that!
"What's the use of me being frugal?" Xu Yiyi retorted.
"How is it useless? My mom said that a woman's thrift is essential for a family's well-being. How can I trust you with my money if you're like this? Fine, from now on, I'll manage my own money. Your extravagant spending is outrageous. What kind of woman buys so many clothes like you?"
Zhao Hanqiao's dissatisfaction was like a thorn stuck in Xu Yiyi's chest.
Xu Yiyi found it laughable.
How could Zhao Hanqiao say such hurtful things? Xu Yiyi is not worthless. Why should she wear plain clothes?
Why shouldn't she deserve his money?
He was willing to book a room for Sun Xiaoya for a thousand yuan a night, yet he was so stingy with her.
Compared to Zhao Hanqiao, Sun Zhixiao, a generous man, is a better choice. Xu Yiyi suddenly realized that she didn't need to reject Sun Zhixiao. He was willing to spend money on her, and they were happy together, which was enough.
As for the rest, we'll take it one step at a time.
If Zhao Hanqiao is willing to get married, she will marry him and secretly become Sun Zhixiao's mistress.
If Zhao Hanqiao doesn't get married and stays with Sun Xiaoya, then Xu Yiyi shouldn't blame her for being ruthless. She's determined to destroy Sun Xiaoya's family! She wants to see what value Sun Xiaoya has without a good father!
If Xu Yiyi had a child with Sun Zhixiao... and if the child happened to be a boy, would Sun Zhixiao really abandon her? Would he really let her raise the child alone?
Xu Yiyi curled her lips and smiled, "Zhao Hanqiao, are you this stingy with all women, or just with me?"
Zhao Hanqiao was taken aback. This was the first time Xu Yiyi had accused him of being stingy. In the past, Xu Yiyi had always been very considerate of his feelings, and she was careful to give him money, afraid that he would be unhappy.
Zhao Hanqiao blushed slightly, feeling a little guilty as he thought about the room he shared with Sun Xiaoya. But Xu Yiyi was spending money too extravagantly, having already spent a thousand or two thousand yuan so quickly.
This kind of person is not suited for a stable life.
Zhao Hanqiao was not happy and scolded her a few times, but she was still unhappy.
"Yiyi, that's unreasonable. Haven't I been good enough to you?"
"Fine? What's so good about it? We've been together for so many years, have you ever bought me a piece of clothing, a pair of shoes, given me a birthday present, or surprised me? You haven't, Zhao Hanqiao. Fine, you won't spend money on me, but I'll spend my own salary to buy myself clothes. What right do you have to tell me what to do!"
