Chapter 145: No Talk Along the Way



She just couldn't understand why her life was worse than hers, even though they were both divorced.

Why can she live so well with her daughter? Why?

Just because she studied abroad, is educated and has a good job.

Her biggest regret in her previous life was that she had no education and did not go to a good university.

So in this life, I must go to college no matter what.

"Please teach me how to drive when you have time. We have a car at home, but I don't know how to drive yet."

"Okay, I'll teach you."

"Yeah." She will have a car and a house.

The misery of her previous life taught her a lesson.

Nothing is better than having money. As long as you have money, you have the capital to squander it.

...

"Hanhan, you know those two people just now. That one is quite rich."

"Well, the girl used to live in a compound and married a rich man."

Yan Jiuxiang heard Ying Han's tone and asked carefully, "Are you not very friendly?"

"Well, that woman and I have a grudge in past and present lives."

"Wow, that's so exaggerated."

"That's much more exaggerated than I said. You and Wang Xiu'e are in the same school. Be careful. She's not someone to be trifled with."

"Yeah, the enemy of my friend is my enemy. Got it."

Yan Jiuxiang's funny words made Ying Han laugh for a long time.

The two of them roughly tidied up the house.

At noon, Yan Jiuxiang took her to the school cafeteria for lunch.

This is Ying Han’s first time coming to this school. No wonder Wang Xiu’e chose this one. It’s really good.

"I'm going on a business trip for a few days tomorrow, so you won't be able to find me these days."

"Go ahead, go ahead. I'm busy these days, so I'll definitely be back in a week."

"It should be about the same. Most of the time is spent on the road. I will only stay there for two days."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

When he returned home in the evening, Ying Han told his parents about his business trip.

Ying's mother's first reaction was to ask who he was with.

Ying Han was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble by telling Deng Chen, so he said he was alone.

Her mother was relieved only when she saw that there was staff to pick her up there.

In the morning, my father took me to the train station with my bag.

Ying Han didn't let his father enter the platform, for fear that his father would discover Deng Chen. It would be hard to explain what would happen if he did that.

Fortunately, Deng Chen arrived later than her.

Ying Han didn't know that Deng Chen had actually been waiting for her at the door for a long time. He looked at the military vehicle driven by Ying's father from a distance and wanted to go up and say hello.

I took two steps and then stopped. The last awkward encounter had left something unpleasant. Going over now would only make it more awkward.

After they boarded the train, they discovered that the tickets given by their employers were not together and were two seats apart.

This is better, as it avoids the awkwardness of sitting together without talking.

This was the third business trip the two had taken together, and this one was the quietest.

During the two days on the road, I spoke no more than 10 sentences.

They are like the most familiar strangers now.

A staff member came to pick them up when they got off the bus, but they were both stunned when they saw the person who came to pick them up.

"Hanhan, Deng Chen?" Pei You only received a call from Ying's mother, saying that Ying Han was here on a business trip.

When he went to the army this morning, he happened to meet the communicator who said he was here to pick up visitors from City A. He knew it was Ying Han.

So he came to pick it up in person, obviously not expecting Deng Chen to follow him.

The last time he came back, he said he would call Ying Han often, but unfortunately he was too busy on a mission and only came back recently.

Just when I was about to call Ying Han, I didn't expect her to come.

The two got in the car, and Pei You was the one who spoke on the way.

After asking for a long time, I found out that two people were sent by the unit.

There is no doubt that Ying Han must have deceived his family.

After Pei You took the two of them to the military guesthouse and settled them down, he took them to the cafeteria. Although it was already past mealtime, Pei You still asked the chef to cook a few dishes.

Fortunately, Pei You and Deng Chen were talking at the dinner table, so there was no awkwardness.

After dinner, Pei You personally took them for a walk.

This was originally Deng Chen's coordination work, but now it has been snatched away by Pei You.

Since it was their first day and they had been traveling for several days, they didn't wander around for too long before returning to the guesthouse to rest.

Ying Han slept from almost 4 o'clock to 5 o'clock, and woke up again because of a knock on the door.

Ying Han thought that Deng Chen wanted to talk to him about something, but when he opened the door, it turned out to be Pei You.

"Brother Pei?"

"Are you asleep?" Pei You looked at Ying Han's sleepy eyes, smiled and rubbed her hair.

Ying Han was so frightened that he quickly took a step back.

Pei You immediately withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "Dinner is prepared at home and we are waiting to welcome you. Do you want to go back with me?"

"Okay... okay, wait for me." Ying Han closed the door awkwardly.

He let out a long sigh, caught off guard by Pei You's actions just now.

But I still have to go. Before coming, my mother prepared many gifts for the Pei and Liang families.

Ying Han changed his clothes and took some fruits from the space.

When he opened the door, Pei You was surprised to see so many things. "When did you buy so many things?"

"Um, I just went downstairs to buy some, and some of it was prepared by my mom."

Pei You took the things from her hand and said with a smile, "I'll do it, okay?"

"Okay, let's go."

The two of them went downstairs one after the other.

Deng Chen, who was next door, leaned against the door with his eyes closed. He didn't know how long he stayed there, listening to their footsteps gradually disappearing.

I walked to the window and lit a cigarette, hoping to relieve the depression in my heart. Unexpectedly, when I looked out the window, I saw two people talking and laughing as they got into the car.

Deng Chen walked to the bed, leaned half of his body against the headboard, curled up one leg slightly, took a deep puff of cigarette, and the smoke he exhaled seemed confusing and difficult to dissipate.

...

"Hanhan is here."

"Hello, Grandpa Pei. I haven't seen you for a few years, and you are still as strong as ever."

"Yes, life is getting better and better, and your health is as good as before. This is all thanks to your parents' care. Are they all okay?"

"Everything is fine."

"This must be the Yinghan that Dad often mentioned. Wow, what a pretty girl." Yinghan was enthusiastically held by the hand by an elegant woman who came down from upstairs.

I guessed it was Pei You's mother, but I didn't dare to speak casually until Pei You introduced her, "This is my mother, Ms. Yang."

"Hello, Aunt Yang."

"Oh, this skin is really good. You must be tired after taking the train for a few days. Come, kid, take a seat. We have prepared a lot of our local specialties today. I don't know what you like."

"Anything is fine. I'm not picky about food."

"Come on, Hanhan, you're welcome."

The enthusiasm of the Pei family was so great that Ying Han was a little overwhelmed. Later, Pei You's father also came back.

The whole family kept picking up food for Ying Han and urging him to eat.

Mother Yang also asked Yinghan many questions about life, which made Yinghan feel quite embarrassed. She always felt that she was looking at her with the eyes of a mother-in-law.

After dinner, Ying Han didn’t sit for long and prepared to go see Grandpa Liang.
