"Don't just stand there." An Xia walked towards Zhan Qian's room. "Come in, I have something to tell you."
Zhan Qian entered behind An Xia'er, closing the door and sighing, "I just saw you and Moose City below and thought, if he took you away again and I didn't go down because I was afraid he would let people take my house away, then whatever happened to you, I think I would be busy for the rest of my life."
An Xia turned around and smiled at her. "Even if something were to happen to me, it wouldn't matter to Zhan Qian. If I really get taken away, you'll have to call the police!"
Zhan Qian shrugged. "Eh, isn't it just the police?"
Or perhaps, inform Lu Bai.
"Zhan Qian, you don't need to say that." An Xia said, "Last time when Da Rong Hao kidnapped me, wasn't it all thanks to you notifying Lu Bai? Actually, you've helped me a lot. I should be thanking you, but because of me … I've lost my job at S City. "
Zhan Qian's disposition was bold and unrestrained. She was feeling guilty a moment ago, but after hearing An Xia'er's words, she immediately came over and laughed. "Haha, that's alright. Who knows, this might just be a wedging machine for me to start a business!"
An Xia'er raised her eyebrows and took out a card from her bag. "Mm, so I'll go back to the shallow water bay and take out my card. My savings are all here. I said that I'll do my best to help you open a newspaper."
Zhan Qian's eyes widened as she looked at her card, "About that …" Little Xia, are you really going to buy shares? This is my first time starting my own business. I don't have any experience, so you might not lose out if you bet on it.
"I still have shares of the An clan. I'll get a dividend every quarter." An Xia'er blinked her bright eyes. "I won't be short on money. See if there's enough inside. If there isn't, I'll think of another way."
This card was her salary after marrying Lu Bai.
He did as he was told, and every month he did have someone put money into her account..." This was indeed the most highly paid job. There was already quite a large sum of money in it.
As for those expensive jewelry, it was hard for Anchor to take them out, because it was given to her by Lu Bai. If she really wanted to divorce him, she would return those items.
When Zhan Qian saw that An Xia had taken out her money without reservation, she was moved beyond words. She held An Xia's hand and asked, "Little Xia, aren't you a little too touching?"
An Xia'er raised an eyebrow. "So, why don't you try it?"
"Alright!" Zhan Qian clenched her fist. "I will definitely use all sorts of skills, trying my best not to let your investment go down the drain."
"Yes." An Xia said, "If there's not enough money, after Lu Bai transfers the An clan's shares back to me tomorrow, I'll go to An clan to withdraw some of the dividends."
Zhan Qian immediately let go of her hand and looked fixedly at An Xia'er. "I say, you really went back to get Lu Bai to transfer the shares?"
"…" Anxia was stunned for a moment. "Of course. Even if I have to leave, I have to take my own."
Zhan Qian sighed.
He looked at An Xia'er for a long time, not knowing where to start.
She went to the front and poured two cups of coffee. Taking into account that Anshar was pregnant, she poured one and refilled it with boiled water.
She sat down on the tatami in front of Anchor's sofa and sipped her coffee. "Little Xia, are you really going to separate from Lu Bai?"
An Xia'er's hand that was holding the cup froze. "It's not that I want to separate, it's that he wants me to leave …"
"Don't blame me for not reminding you …"
"I know what you want to say. Do you want me to submit?" An Xia'er took a sip of water. "You want to say that a man like Lu Bai can't even dream of meeting a woman like that?" For the sake of this Young Madam Lu's identity, for the sake of her future glory and wealth, even if you have to suffer grievances at Lu Bai's place, you should still endure it, right? "
"At the very least, if a majority of women were to marry into that rich and powerful family, they would all choose to endure." Although Zhan Qian was happy that Anxia trusted her to invest in the newspaper, she still felt that it was necessary to share some practical issues with Anxia.
"Perhaps you would think that I am a secular person, but do you know how many female celebrities live miserable lives after marrying into a Wealthy Class? But some women would rather choose to be unhappy about their feelings. "At least we'll be able to protect our lives without worrying about the food and clothing for our marriage. It will be very beautiful outside. To put it bluntly, as long as we have money …"
"…"
Anthea drank from her cup of boiling water.
Amidst the steam of the white fog, her eyelashes were lowered, so the color of her eyes could not be seen.
What a realistic problem, as long as you have money... Do I have to endure everything?
"To put it bluntly, if some women were asked to sacrifice their love in order to marry into a rich family, I think many women would rush forward and charge forward." Zhan Qian said clearly, "My words may sound bad, but this is the reality. Little Xia, you are still young, you can choose a better life. Lu Bai can become your strongest escape."
Zhan Qian understood that even if An Xia'er had a stake in the An family in the future, it would still be difficult for her to face off against the An family and the Mu family.
Besides, she was pregnant.
And the marriage that she might be able to save with just an apology, sometimes face... Actually, it was not as important as he had imagined.
An Xia'er raised her eyes with a smile. "If I divorce him, I'll do the stupidest thing I've ever done, right?" gave up on the richest man in Asia? "
Zhan Qian looked at her. She didn't nod, but neither did she shake her head.
"It's not that I can't endure grievances." An Xia'er put the cup down and pursed her lips. "…" At the very least, towards the An clan, I have endured too much.
"I don't mean like this …"
"However, it depends on who is the one to make me feel wronged." An Xia gently traced the rim of the cup with her finger, and the smile on her lips was a little bitter. "If, if I didn't love Lu Bai, I might have considered taking it or not." After all, with Lu Bai's cold and forceful attitude, a woman would definitely feel wronged in front of him. I don't think that's surprising at all. "
"But." An Xia'er's eyes reddened, and she slowly raised her head, "I love him, but in my eyes, he's not Lu Bai or the CEO of Di Cheng Group. He's my husband, he can be angry at me, and if I did something wrong or displeased him, he can blame me, but he can't tell me to scram, he can't chase me away …"
Zhan Qian froze for a moment, realizing that she shouldn't have said that. She quickly replied, "Little Xia, I'm just making an analogy —"
"Perhaps this idea of mine is a bit pretentious." "But I really felt wronged. I wanted to tell him that I had his child, but he didn't even let me finish speaking before I left …"
Her heart was cold then.
"I was thinking." An Xia'er choked with emotion. "Even if I asked him to release the Thunder Prayer, even if his trade secrets were leaked and his interests were damaged, could it be that I'm not as important as his business interests?"
"So much so that I risked his business secrets to leak out again and let a classmate go. He would rather let me get lost?"
Is she less important than the interests of his company?
So he let her go when she did something that would hurt him? Was she as insignificant as his career?
An Xia looked at the wedding ring on her finger, which she had forgotten to put back. The big diamond shone with an extravagant white light, just like their romantic and dreamy wedding.
During the wedding, she wore a white wedding dress and Lu Bai wore a three-piece suit. He was extremely handsome!
They were wearing lavender on their chests.
Waiting for love is its flowery language.
She would often think that Lu Bai was the love she had been waiting for a long time. Whenever she thought of this, her lips would curl up in a smile.
"Perhaps, this is a woman's selfishness." An Xia'er looked at her hands, a tear on her eyelash. "Since he's so busy working every day, am I not even one ten thousandth of his company's profits to him?" If so, what is my wife to him? "
The instructor looked at her for a moment. "Then forget it, I didn't say anything just now. The things you pursue are a bit different from the things I pursue. You yearn for a flawless love. This surpasses your love for money."
Is that so?
An Xia'er's mind slightly drifted away …
[Lucky fella...] Lu Bai's voice resounded in her ears.
An Xia smiled. So, to her, there was something more important than earning money — Lu Bai's love.
Zhan Qian patted her on the shoulder. "Okay, you are right to think that way. It was indeed too much for him to tell you to scram." No matter what choice you make, I will support you! "
It wasn't that she couldn't tell the pros and cons. It was just that as a wife, she didn't want to lower her head to Lu Bai.
"However." Zhan Qian suddenly said, "If Lu Bai comes to pick you up, will you go back?"
An Xia'er froze for a moment.
After a while, she took off the claw Zhan Qian had placed on her shoulder. "He won't. When I came out of the shallow water bay today, he said he won't stop me if I want to leave."
An Xia'er stood up, but her expression couldn't be seen clearly. In fact, when she left the Nine Dragons' Courtyard today, she had hoped that Lu Bai would keep her here.
Zhan Qian thought for a moment. Was Lu Bai spicy, handsome and spicy? Was he that tyrannical? How unfortunate for him to give up!
"Then what if …"
"No need." Anxia knew what Zhan Qian wanted to say, so she walked towards the balcony. "If he knows that I have a child, then all he wants is a child."
Zhan Qian expressed that her persuasion had failed again, "Ai, alright. It's up to you. I hope Lu Bai will come and find you. "I keep having the feeling that he's not that heartless towards you …"
An Xia'er didn't say anything. She lightly tied her hair back with a piece of red skin and tied it up.
Her hair was already beginning to grow out...
Anxia finished tying her hair and walked towards Zhan Qian's kitchen.
Zhan Qian was shocked, "Eh, eh, eh, ai, what are you going to do?"
"Cooking. I'll stay with you for the time being. I have to do something, right?"
"But don't you know how to cook?"
"I've learned it before!" "I'll let you have a taste of my cooking tonight. I think the vegetables I made are still acceptable."
"What?" "Vegetables?"
That night, Zhan Qian had the most unforgettable meal in her life … In the end, the two of them could only order takeout.
It was a deep night. On that night, An Xia looked at her phone and didn't fall asleep. She didn't know what she was waiting for … Or on someone's phone.
In the middle of the night, her cell phone finally rang.
But it wasn't Lu Bai.
It was an unfamiliar number that he called frequently these days. Every time he picked up, the other party wouldn't say a word. An Xia'er would often try to blacklist this number.
An Xia'er sighed and took the call. "Hello?"
"…"
The person on the other side of the phone still did not speak.
Hearing the silence on the other side of the phone, An Xia'er had a strange feeling … She kept having the feeling that the other party might be someone she knew.
Usually, An Xia would have directly hung up the phone, but this time, she thought of the life in her stomach. For some reason, she smiled and said, "Although you don't speak, do you know me?" "Let me ask you a question. Do you think the child's nickname is LuLu?"
