Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 276 Earn Money to Marry You
Xue Rui looked surprised. So there was a reason for this dish?

He looked at his father, and Xue Jianfeng's expression changed obviously. He picked up a large piece of fungus with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"If it's the first time, it's already very good." Xue Jianfeng said with a smile.

So it was made especially for him? This girl is really thoughtful...

I really have nothing better to do than to find fault with you. Isn't this just looking for trouble?
"Well, uncle, if you... don't think it tastes good, you can eat something else first." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice, and then glanced at Xue Rui.

Xue Rui glanced at his father. He was a little dissatisfied with his father's answer. He put the plate directly in front of Xue Jianfeng and said with a smile: "Dad, don't forget what you taught me."

Xue Jianfeng paused his chopsticks. He had so many things to teach, how could he remember which one Xue Rui was talking about?
"When you go to someone's house for dinner, especially..." Xue Rui lengthened his voice to give Xue Jianfeng a hint.

Xue Jianfeng narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought. He had indeed taught Xue Rui that when going to someone else's house for a meal, he had to praise the food no matter whether it was delicious or not, and no matter whether he was hungry or not, nothing could be left over!

Especially when you go to the girl's house for dinner, you have to make sure that the girl can't find any fault with you. Even if there is a stone in the rice, you have to pretend that you don't know and swallow it down...

"They say that words and deeds are the best way to teach. You have to set an example for me." Xue Rui sighed.

Xue Jianfeng's brows twitched. Well, the boomerang hit him!

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Xixi, uncle likes this."

As he said this, he dragged the plate in front of him. The girl made it specially for him and he had to finish it today.

But with this big plate of black fungus and this full bowl of noodles, he felt like his stomach was going to suffer no matter how he looked at it.

This girl is so real!
This big bowl looks like it's prepared for the men who work hard in the village...

He looked up and saw that Lin Ruoxi also had a lot of bowls, but Xue Rui's bowl was much smaller...

Xue Rui smiled. After two years of recuperation, the little girl's appetite was increasing...

There is no way, the little girl is different from other girls. Other girls only eat a little during the meal, and have all kinds of desserts and snacks after the meal. The energy ratio of the meal and snacks is almost half and half;
Lin Ruoxi's snacks are mainly for him. The little girl mainly relies on eating to obtain energy. In addition, the little girl has to do a lot of mental and physical work every day, so she consumes a lot of energy and eats a lot. Even if he has eaten his breakfast, most of the energy she spent on cooking just now has probably been consumed, so she can still have another meal.

The little girl tilted her head. She didn't understand what the two people were talking about. She just picked up the dishes that Xue Rui liked for him.

Xue Rui glanced at Xue Jianfeng from time to time, causing the little girl to look at him as well.

Whenever Xue Jianfeng wanted to say that he couldn't eat, he would be met with Lin Ruoxi's timid eyes, which made him feel guilty.

He glanced at Xue Rui and tapped the plate gently, meaning to ask Xue Rui to help him with some of the fungus.

However, Xue Rui frowned and said, "Dad, you said you can't knock on the plate when eating."

Xue Jianfeng glared at Xue Rui and asked, "Can you please stop protecting the bowl when you talk?"
Xue Rui actually moved the bowl away, as if he was afraid that he would pick up some food for him!
Which side are you on?

He couldn't help but think of a saying: When you get a wife, you forget your mother.

There was no choice but to grit his teeth and shovel the whole dish into his bowl.

Xue Rui squeezed the little girl's hand and said, "Look, my dad is eating so delicious food, why don't you go get another bowl?"

Lin Ruoxi was confused. Just now, Xue Rui's father seemed dissatisfied with the food she cooked, but now he seemed to have a good appetite.

Seeing Lin Ruoxi stand up, Xue Jianfeng waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no."

If he was young, this bowl would definitely not be enough, but now that he has entered middle age, he has become a boss who does not need to do physical work. His appetite has also decreased significantly as he no longer needs to work. This bowl of noodles is enough to make him almost die...

Xue Rui saw that his father's face was almost red from eating, so he pushed his bowl in front of the little girl.

Xue Jianfeng raised his head and took a look curiously. He thought Xue Rui had finished eating and was about to ask Lin Ruoxi for another bowl, but there was still half a bowl left?
Just when he was confused, Lin Ruoxi picked up Xue Rui's bowl...

"Well, you don't like pickles? I'll make you something else next time." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice, and then started to eat up Xue Rui's leftovers in big mouthfuls.

Xue Jianfeng almost spit out his mouth. Xue Rui had just told him not to leave any food...

Also, what girl would eat a man’s leftovers?
"You little bastard, you're doing this just for me to see!" Xue Jianfeng cursed inwardly and stepped on Xue Rui's foot under the table.

He couldn't eat in the first place, and Xue Rui even left some food on purpose for him to see. He thought that since Xue Rui had taken the lead, he would also leave some food. But Lin Ruoxi actually ate Xue Rui's leftovers, which was another matter...

This feeling of having hope just seen and then suddenly extinguished really affects one's appetite.

Xue Rui actually wanted to say one more thing: If you can’t eat it, don’t eat it.

However, he was afraid that his father would get angry...

Finally, under the "supervision" of Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi, Xue Jianfeng forced himself to stuff a full bowl of noodles and a plate of black fungus into his stomach.

At this moment, Xue Jianfeng couldn't even straighten his back. For fear of hitting his throat accidentally, he carefully lay on the sofa to rest.

Seeing Lin Ruoxi go to the kitchen to wash the dishes, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh~ That was close, I almost vomited."

Xue Rui sat next to Xue Jianfeng and said, "Dad, is it delicious?"

He felt that his father was too picky. How could he find fault with a girl like Lin Ruoxi?

He remembered what his father’s requirements were when he was not married in his previous life.

It seems... it would be okay if she was a woman?
Well, people are always picky when faced with a banquet, and dry steamed buns are okay when they are really hungry.

When Xue Jianfeng heard about the issue of eating, he immediately became angry. Xue Rui had given him a lot of trouble today. He wanted to hit Xue Rui with his slippers, but his stomach was so bloated that he couldn't even bend down, so he really couldn't do anything to Xue Rui.

He touched his body with an irritated look on his face, and simply threw the car keys to Xue Rui: "Go, get me a pack of cigarettes from the trunk."

Xue Rui didn't take the key. He was too lazy to go downstairs and wanted to look for Lin Ruoxi's place to see if there were any cigarettes left.

As a result, he saw a large cardboard box. After looking through it, he found two Daguoxi cigarettes stuffed inside. They were brought back by Yu Minlan from Guangdong Province.

He felt that the little girl had just made some lung-moistening dishes for Xue Jianfeng, and the two cigarettes would probably not be taken out again, so it would be better for him to hand them over.

He placed two packs of cigarettes on the coffee table and said, "She brought these for you from Guangdong Province."

"Oh?" Xue Jianfeng asked in surprise. Gu Qingshan had given him a pack before, saying it was sent by his son. He was wondering why he didn't have it. It turned out that he was waiting here.

He thought that Xue Rui prepared it for Lin Ruoxi, but Lin Ruoxi didn't have such an idea.

He opened the package and lit a cigarette, then asked with a smile, "Where did you meet this girl? You're so lucky."

It's not that he didn't know that Xue Rui was two-timing. This was not uncommon among the second-generation rich, but he didn't expect it to happen to him.

The point is, Xue Rui's two ships are completely different in nature...

Others are just playing around. Both men and women know very well what the other needs. The man wants the woman's body, and the woman wants the money. It seems fair and aboveboard that they each get what they need.

But the situation here with Xue Rui is completely different.

Gu Muxue is Xue Rui's childhood sweetheart. From a family perspective, they are the ones trying to marry someone higher up. However, because the two families are close and know each other well, and their children are willing to marry each other, they are a match made in heaven.

As for Lin Ruoxi...he didn't know what to say.

He looked down on this kind of girl. If he looked at it from his son's perspective, this girl really had no flaws, but from a long-term perspective, Lin Ruoxi was definitely not the best candidate.

Xue Rui chuckled: "I picked it up for some unknown reason."

He originally wanted to solve the problem of Lin Ruoxi's suicide, but who would have thought that he would have more and more interactions with the little girl, and now he feels a little inseparable from her.

Xue Jianfeng glanced at the kitchen and said, "Xiao Rui, listen to what dad has to say."

"Well, you go ahead." Xue Rui responded.

"I know, this girl is hard to quit." Xue Jianfeng said seriously. Lin Ruoxi is so beautiful, and she is also very obedient. She is willing to squat down to change her man's shoes. I guess if Xue Rui asked Lin Ruoxi to kneel down, Lin Ruoxi would not hesitate at all...

This sense of control from a superior position is simply a drug for men.

"But life is far from as simple as you think. Broaden your horizons and you will find that it is not suitable for you..."

Xue Rui certainly knew that his father was doing this for his own good. Xue Jianfeng could see things more clearly from a third-party perspective and safeguard his life.

Xue Rui nodded and said, "Dad, what you said makes sense, but..."

Lin Ruoxi wiped her hands and just walked out of the kitchen. She saw Xue Rui with his back to her, saying something that made sense.

Xue Jianfeng found Lin Ruoxi coming out, and he gritted his teeth and interrupted, "Don't say but, since you think what dad said makes sense, just break up with Lin Ruoxi."

It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. The sooner a decision is made, the better it will be for both parties. Don't dwell on it for too long and make things a life-and-death struggle.

He suddenly understood his wife. She must have felt uneasy about giving the girl a house and wanted to give her some compensation.

He thought that since Lin Ruoxi could accept this house, it meant that she still had desires for material things. He would give her some extra compensation and end this relationship as soon as possible.

However, Xue Jianfeng didn't know that Lin Ruoxi accepted this house in order to give birth to a child for Xue Rui...

If Xue Rui didn't nod, Lin Ruoxi would definitely not accept it.

When Lin Ruoxi heard that Xue Rui's father wanted Xue Rui to break off relations with her, she suddenly felt dizzy.

She had never faced such a situation before. Xue Rui's mother loved her very much. Although her grandmother hated Xue Rui, she never asked her to leave Xue Rui.

This was the first time someone asked her to leave, and it was Xue Rui's father.

She couldn't accept a world without Xue Rui, but she didn't know what she could do?
The little girl felt her limbs were cold, and she had no strength at all. She took a few trembling steps and bumped into the dining table beside her. She collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face, splashing onto the floor...

Xue Rui trembled all over. Did the little girl hear it?

He glared at his father and said, "But I won't listen."

He hurried to help Lin Ruoxi up, only to see Lin Ruoxi frantically getting up from the ground, her elbows trembling...

"Uncle, I..." Lin Ruoxi choked up. She didn't know what she should say.

Xue Jianfeng murmured as he put out the cigarette butt. Why did this girl react so violently?

Has it reached this point?
Xue Rui helped Lin Ruoxi sit down opposite Xue Jianfeng, and whispered in the little girl's ear: "Just say whatever you want to say. I won't listen to him. I'm on your side."

Xue Rui knew that his father never hesitated in doing things, so he brought his father to meet Lin Ruoxi today to pave the way in advance...

He thought Xue Jianfeng would sympathize with Lin Ruoxi, but Xue Jianfeng's hard-heartedness exceeded his expectations. He ate Lin Ruoxi's meal and said it out in front of her.

Yes, it is difficult for a compassionate person to grow a business as big as Xue Jianfeng’s. In his businessman’s mindset, interests always come first.

When Lin Ruoxi heard Xue Rui's comfort, she suddenly felt a sense of security in her heart. As long as Xue Rui was by her side, it would be fine.

She stumbled and said, "Uncle, I...I want to go to school with Rui, and I want to cook for him..."

Xue Jianfeng interrupted, "Don't worry, I didn't say that Xiao Rui couldn't meet you. It's just that Xiao Rui's future marriage partner needs to be considered comprehensively from many aspects. It's not enough to just be nice to him."

"If you are willing to leave, I will give you a sum of compensation, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life."

"Sorry, girl."

Xue Jianfeng's attitude is very sincere.

He felt that Xue Rui had probably taken advantage of everything, and that he was the one at fault, so he should give the girl some compensation.

A sentence suddenly flashed through Xue Rui's mind: How much money do you want me to leave my daughter for? Just tell me the number?

hiss~
He became a "princess"?

I never expected that such a rough guy like him would have this day.

However, given his current conditions, he is indeed qualified to make demands on the woman.

Xue Rui thought that his father must have watched too many Korean dramas with his mother, and he spoke so seriously, which seemed to be true.

Xue Rui chuckled and said, "Quick, ask him for 1 billion!"

He wanted to disrupt the atmosphere quickly. The word "comprehensive" that Xue Jianfeng said had too many meanings, some of which were things that Lin Ruoxi could never change in her entire life, such as her family background.

Although the little girl herself doesn't mind the fact that she is an orphan, it is never a good thing to expose someone's wounds.

Xue Jianfeng's eyes twitched: "You are worth 1 billion? Can you stop flattering yourself?"

He thought to himself that if necessary, he would have to talk to Lin Ruoxi alone. Xue Rui was too good at stirring up the atmosphere. He really couldn't do anything with his own son...

Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath and said firmly, "I will work hard to make 1 billion."

"Huh?" Xue Rui looked at Lin Ruoxi in disbelief. What was this girl talking about?

Is that what he just said? He wanted Lin Ruoxi to blackmail him and ask his father to open a sky-high price, but this girl wanted to give his father 1 billion in return?

Xue Jianfeng was also stunned. What did Lin Ruoxi mean? Did she think Xue Rui was worth 1 billion?

Well...it's hard to say. He has a net worth of hundreds of millions at the age of 18, so it's not impossible for him to have 1 billion in the future.

But why did Lin Ruoxi earn 1 billion?
The little girl ran back to the room, put a pile of documents and a bank card on the coffee table, and said with her head down: "Uncle, I... I don't have that much money now. There are 2790 million in this card. This is the equity of the electronics factory, which was given by Rui..."

Xue Rui's face was full of surprise. What was the little girl doing? Giving money to his father and buying him?
Xue Jianfeng took a breath of cold air. This girl must be worth quite a lot!

Most of them should have been given by Xue Rui...

He looked at the old furniture around him and thought to himself that with so much money, they could still live such a simple life...

He was wrong in his judgment. This girl had no desire for material things. Xue Rui even felt comfortable leaving his wealth with Lin Ruoxi for safekeeping.

This is a problem. If money can't solve the problem, other things will be even more difficult...

The little girl fumbled around her body nervously, wanting to give all the valuables on her to Xue Jianfeng, until she touched the necklace around her neck and pulled her hand back as if she had been electrocuted.

"This was given to me by Xue Rui. No...I can't give it to you."

"I will work hard to make money and I won't leave." Lin Ruoxi said sincerely.

Xue Rui was choked for a moment. The little girl got it wrong again. Doesn’t this mean making money to marry you?

Xue Jianfeng pinched his brows. Lin Ruoxi's sincerity touched him a little. He remembered the cakes he had drawn for his mother-in-law back then...

He thought that this girl was also possessive, and thought of changing the direction to let Lin Ruoxi leave.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Xiao Rui and Gu Muxue are already together. He has a girlfriend."

"He doesn't deserve you. You'd better stay away from him to avoid getting hurt."

Xue Rui's eyebrows jumped, and he wondered why they started slandering him again?
He really feels guilty!

Lin Ruoxi glanced at Xue Rui and said slowly: "Uncle, Rui is very good, it's me who is not worthy of him..."

"I also know classmate Gu Muxue. As long as Rui doesn't chase me away, I... I don't mind."
