Rebirth of the wealthy daughter-in-law

Chapter 107 Working hard together

After get off work, Zhu Qian wanted to go home directly, but she was afraid that Zhao Xicheng was waiting for her in the box, so she decided to go to the box to have a look.When I got there, I found that Zhao Xicheng had passed out drunk on the sofa. Zhu Qian looked at the wine bottles on the table again, and found that the bottle that was originally full was more than half empty.

Zhao Xicheng collapsed on the sofa, still holding an empty glass in his hand.Zhu Qian took the cup from his hand, his closed eyes moved, eyelashes trembled, and he whispered softly: "Shaolin... Shaolin..."

The music in the bar had stopped and the customers had left.Only a few waiters stayed to clean.There was silence in the box, with the occasional crisp sound of wine glasses colliding.

Zhu Qian sat down on the floor next to the sofa, moved lightly, just sat beside him, watching him quietly.There was no calmness and indifference in his eyes when he faced him just now, but a very gentle look instead.

Under the dim light, his handsome face had thick shadows, which gave his facial features a more blurred sense of beauty.She remembered the amazing feeling she felt when she first met him.She smiled slightly.At that time, she just regarded him as a beautiful scenery in her life. After admiring and marveling, it would not have any connection with her.When did she start to let this scenery slowly enter her heart?She obviously hated this playboy so much at that time.

Zhu Qian thought about it carefully, but she didn't have any clue.Is it in his gentle smiles again and again?Is it in his silent forbearance again and again, in his gentle hugs and affectionate gazes again and again?Is it in his patient waiting and slowly changing?In short, he walked into her heart step by step and took root in her heart, so that when she wanted to pull him out of her heart, she would feel heart-piercing pain.

She didn't understand what kind of emotion she had for Qiao Zheng in the past, but she knew that that emotion was different from the relationship between her and Xicheng, and also different from the relationship between Qiao Zheng and Song Shaolin.The relationship between her and Xicheng is that kind of emotion that can be very sweet or painful. This kind of emotion is entangled in the heart, so attractive and difficult to give up.Now, she doesn't want to give up this feeling easily.

"It's just..." In the darkness and silence, she spoke slowly, her voice was soft, lingering in the air that smelled of wine, "We have to work harder, so that we can go further..."
At this moment, Xiaomo pushed the door open and came in, "Shaolin, they said you are here..." But when she saw the warm scene in the box, she couldn't help retracting the words behind her.

Xiaomo chuckled: "What are you guys playing? Telling your heartfelt love after drinking?"

Zhu Qian made a "shh" gesture, and then angrily said: "What nonsense? He was so drunk that he passed out, how can he sue."

"Drunk?" Xiaomo walked over and pushed him, but there was no response, "I'm really drunk, what should I do now?"

Zhu Qian stood up and rubbed her sore legs, "I can only trouble Xijun."

Zhao Xijun hurried over after receiving the call.Seeing him, Zhu Qian said sorry, "Xijun, I'm sorry to trouble you. I don't want to go back to the mansion yet, so I can't send him back. My place is too small..."

Zhao Xijun's complexion was not very good, there were dark circles under his eyes, and he looked thinner. Zhu Qian was puzzled and wanted to ask, but he had already walked to his elder brother and carried him on his back, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to talk to me. So polite, he is also my elder brother, I should have done these things. It is too late now, so I will leave first, and you guys should go back and rest quickly!"

After speaking, he said goodbye to them and walked out.

Xiao Mo walked to Zhu Qian's side, looked at their backs and said, "Jun Xi has lost a lot of weight, it must have been very hard."

Zhu Qian thought, waiting for this weekend, she must visit the place where Xi Jun lives.

When Zhao Xicheng woke up in the morning, he found himself lying in an unfamiliar environment.

He slowly got up, only to feel a splitting headache. He rubbed his head with his hands and moaned.It was a familiar voice that sounded in the ear.

"Brother, are you okay? Would you like some water?"

Zhao Xicheng looked up, but it wasn't Xijun. "Why am I here?"

"My sister-in-law called me to come here. I don't want to go back and be scolded by my father, so I had to bring you to my place."

Zhao Xijun stood at the stove, wearing a very ordinary short-sleeved shirt and jeans, with his head down, fiddling with his hands.

Zhao Xicheng became curious, he got up, walked to Zhao Xijun, poked his head and said, "What are you doing?"

In a small stainless steel pot, a pile of mush was cooking in it.

Zhao Xijun pulled it with chopsticks, and said, "I'm cooking instant noodles. I don't need to cook them, but there's no boiling water, so I can just boil them and eat them."

"Instant noodles?" Zhao Xicheng was incredulous, he had only seen it in TV commercials.

Zhao Xijun was very generous: "Brother, do you want to eat together?"

Zhao Xicheng looked at the mush in the pot, and watched him mix a bag of seasoning into it, and then mixed it into a caramel-colored mush, and decisively rejected his kindness, "No, I'll go back later Change clothes at home, I’ll go back and eat.” Then he asked: “Do you usually eat this?”

Zhao Xijun sat down at a table and said while eating, "It's convenient and tastes good."

Looking at his thinner face, Zhao Xicheng couldn't help but feel distressed, "Xijun, go home, you are a pampered young master, how can you adapt to the outside environment? Look at where you live now, what you wear, what you eat , Can it be compared with home? What’s the point of what you’re after? It’s just singing and dancing, so it’s no wonder Dad gets angry. Go back and admit your mistake to Dad, and Dad will forgive you.” He said, Sit down beside him too.

Zhao Xijun looked up at him, and said, "That's what you told my sister-in-law last night, didn't you, would my sister-in-law want to go home with you?"

"How dare I ask her to admit her mistake," Zhao Xicheng smiled wryly, "I would be satisfied as long as she is willing to go back with me. But she refused, and said that she would only consider it if I learned to respect her. Xijun, I was extremely depressed at the time How can there be such an arrogant woman, no woman would treat me like this!"

"Then why don't you go to those women? Why are you still sighing here?"

"Xi Jun, why do you have to taunt me?"

Zhao Xijun put down the small pot, then wiped his mouth, "Because you know, sister-in-law is different from those women, and her feelings for you are free from impurities. After so many things happened, she is still willing to give you a chance to show her I have feelings for you. And to be honest, my sister-in-law's request is not too much. Brother, you don't know how lucky you are to have the sincere affection of a woman like my sister-in-law. If it were me, I would definitely work hard to achieve it. her request."

Zhao Xicheng couldn't help leaning over: "Xijun, do you think I don't respect her too?"

Zhao Xijun shook his head: "Brother, it's not that you don't respect sister-in-law, but you don't have the consciousness to respect others at all. You are like father, you base everything on your own ideas. Sister-in-law is such a self-respecting and self-loving woman, how can you bear it?" ?” He stood up, “Also, I don’t think I’m at fault, so I won’t go back. Well, it’s getting late, I’m going to the company, brother, do what you want.”

Zhao Xicheng also stood up, "I'm leaving too, let's go together, I'll see you off." Then, he found his wallet by the bed, took out a card from it, and handed it to Xijun, "This is my card. Take it, papa won't know. Find a better house and hire a servant to take care of your food and clothing."

Zhao Xijun just watched, didn't take it, then sighed, and said: "Brother, I'm just holding on now, forcing myself to adapt to all this, so don't tempt me, once I take this card, all my hard work It becomes meaningless, and I really have no hope."
