Chapter Ninety-Four: The Gift
Jiang Xue took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "Didn't you say that your husband didn't allow you to come out because you lost too much money, you can each of these three checks, not much, just 10,000." β
After hearing this, the three of them widened their eyes and felt a little surprised, not understanding what Jiang Xue meant.
Jiang Xue saw their doubts, and then said, "Think of it as our friendship for so long." If you win, take the money, and if you lose, you can't take it with you. β
Jiang Xue couldn't help but think of a sentence, that's what she said. There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved with money, and if there is, it is only because you are too poor.
Jiang Xue lit a cigarette and said slowly: "Don't mention this matter, let's hurry up and have fun." β
Just as they were about to start playing mahjong, the housekeeper said breathlessly, "Madam, that woman is here again." β
Hearing this, Jiang Xue's expression changed.
"She's gone again?"
The butler replied respectfully and truthfully, "It seems to be so." I didn't look too closely. She gave me this bag and asked me to pass it on to you. Say there's a note inside, be sure to show it. β
"It's kind of interesting. Jiang Xue felt that Shen Qingyu's return after three years had become much more capable of doing things, and she still liked her as always.
"Take it. Jiang Xue said to the housekeeper and asked the housekeeper to hand him the bag in his hand.
"It seems to be Kod. "A player with sharp eyes probably guessed the brand before he saw the tag.
"Wow, no. Who sent it? If I'm not mistaken, this model seems to be a global limited edition. Other women also sensed the value of the bag.
Jiang Xue took the bag in her hand and stroked it, yes, this is her favorite brand, and it is also a style she liked very much back then, but unfortunately it did not grab the global release.
She is young, has no background, and has no strength. How did you get this bag? And with Jiang Xue's experience in loving bags for many years, she knew that this touch could not be fake as soon as she touched it.
Not only today, since Shen Qingyu inexplicably gave himself a business card with only a name, Jiang Xue has received gifts every morning since the next day.
Sometimes it's her favorite roses flown in, sometimes it's designer bags, sometimes it's all the flavors of her favorite cigarettes.
I have to say that Jiang Xue's eye for seeing people is still very accurate, this Shen Qingyu came back after so many years, and it can be regarded as a strong return.
Jiang Xue took out a note from her bag, on which was a string of eleven digits. It seems that it should be Shen Qingyu's phone number, but what's the use of keeping her phone number for herself.
According to such a smart woman as Shen Qingyu, it is impossible for her not to know that she will only take the initiative to contact Jiang Xue when she is addicted to the card, so there is a very small chance that Jiang Xue will take the initiative to call her.
The other three women were also a little puzzled: "Why did this woman keep her mobile phone number? Is it a code? Or is she trying to explain something?"
Jiang Xue thought for a while and smiled without a trace.
"Sister Xue, do you have any ideas?"
Jiang Xue shook her head, continued to smoke and said, "This girl is really smart, I like her very much." It's okay, let's move on. Ignore it,"
In the evening, Jiang Xue sat in the living room watching TV as always.
Looking at her watch from time to time, Jiang Xue was still reminiscing about her clever methods in the morning.
"Ding. β
A reminder of a text message interrupted the wonderful TV plot, but Jiang Xue was not angry. I picked up my phone with a smile and looked at it, and sure enough, it was a message from an unknown number.
"Aunt Xue, do you still like the gift?"
That's right, this strange number is the number of the note in the morning.
Jiang Xue glanced at the text message, provoked a meaningful smile, and then ignored the text message.
Not long after, another text message arrived.
"Aunt Xue, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's go for a walk. β
Jiang Xue smoked a cigarette and smiled mysteriously, finally this little girl couldn't wait to make her own plans?
After changing her clothes, Jiang Xue saw a sports car parked at the gate of her house as soon as she walked out of the gate of Gu's house.
Shen Qingyu put her arm on the side of the sports car, wore a pair of sunglasses, and watched Jiang Xue walk out of the gate of the Gu family with a leisurely expression.
Jiang Xue smiled and whispered to Shen: "I haven't seen you for three years, and you haven't seen each other yet, so you will give me a steady stream of gifts." I'm curious, you have the strength to please me, why don't you go find a better person. β
Shen Qingyu took off his sunglasses and played with them in his hand, and said, "This has nothing to do with money." β
It's not about money? It's the same tone as it was back then. It seems that this little girl is still the little girl of the year.
"Shouldn't it be said here that you have passed the age of believing in love, or have you never believed it at all?" Jiang Xue lit a cigarette and held her arms in her hands.
"Aunt Xue, smoking is harmful to your body. Shen whispered that she didn't want to answer her question, she just wanted to make small talk casually.
Jiang Xue smiled bitterly: "Aunt Xue is not smoking, it's money." β
"Speaking of which, you know I'm going to help you, that's why you've been looking for me. Jiang Xue spat out one smoke ring after another, as if there was no trick in the world that could fool her eyes.
Shen said indifferently: "Help? In this world, even my sister doesn't help me, so I can only rely on Aunt Xue." β
When it comes to Shen Fanxi, there are even more things that can be talked about between the two.
"When Shen Fanxi was at home, I didn't give a good look. You can rest assured. It's just that your brother Ziyan looks like he's about to change his mind. "Jiang Xue likes to watch the intrigue between young people the most.
Shen Qingyu heard Gu Ziyan's news, and her pupils quickly became smaller: "Hmph, what qualifications does she Shen Fanxi have to rob Gu Ziyan with me." If it weren't for the selfishness of the old man of the Gu family, Ziyan would have married me!"
Jiang Xue saw that Shen whispered as if there was something unspeakable, and she wanted to say it but was afraid of something.
"In front of Aunt Xue, what other secrets do you have to hide. What a silly boy. Jiang Xue encouraged Shen to whisper the truth of the matter, in case something happened, she would just cover herself.
"Actually. I've been trying hard to keep this secret a secret. Because I feel that I am an older sister and I should protect her. Shen whispered in an ethereal tone, as if telling a story from a long time ago.
"But now I really can't take it anymore. She knew that Ziyan and I were so in love before, why did she break us up!" As she spoke, Shen whispered a little emotionally.
"Speak slowly, don't get excited. Jiang Xue patted Shen Qingyu's back, wanting to give her some comfort.
"I don't know why, although I am the eldest daughter of the Shen family, the old man Shen doesn't like me at all!
"I don't know why my life is so hard, I was naΓ―ve and good to my sister as always, but I didn't expect her to know gratitude at all, she liked to grab things from me since she was a child, and I knew that I liked Gu Ziyan very much at that time, and then relied on my father's love for her, so I forced my father to try his best to marry her in. β
Shen whispered as she secretly observed Jiang Xue's expression, and saw that Jiang Xue had been smoking silently on the side and cried even more without saying anything.
Although Jiang Xue smoked silently on the side and did not make a statement, she was half-convinced of what Shen whispered in her heart.
"I hope you didn't lie to me. In other words, you should know exactly what will happen if you lie to me. Jiang Xue said this unhurriedly.
Shen whispered with a face full of grievances: "Aunt Xue is so good to me, how can I joke about this kind of thing." I have no hope of marrying Brother Ziyan, but I also don't want Shen Fanxi's woman to live too well, after all, I regarded her as a sister back then, but the reward was betrayal. β
After finishing speaking, Shen whispered and said very pitifully: "Aunt Xue, now only you can help me." β
Jiang Xue didn't want to get involved in trouble, although she couldn't get used to Shen Fanxi's woman, but now according to Gu Ziyan's attitude, it is very likely that this game will be Shen Fanxi's defeat.
Jiang Xue threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with high heels, and said: "I choose to help you for my own reasons, I hope you don't know the sky and the earth like your sister." Tell us about your conditions. β
Shen Qingyu saw that the plan succeeded, and still said pitifully: "I said it, I don't want Brother Ziyan to love me, after all, after three years, too many things have happened in the middle." My only hope is for them to get a divorce. β
Jiang Xue clasped her hands to her chest and said, "Divorce? It's not just about your plan, it's also about the prestige of our family, so I won't agree to this request. β
Shen Qingyu never expected that he would accidentally say some excessive demands because he was too carried away, and quickly changed his words: "The divorce I am talking about is not necessarily a legal divorce, as long as there is no affection between them, it is not much different from divorce." β
Shen Qingyu knew that her sister had liked Gu Ziyan since she was a child, even if Gu Ziyan didn't like her at the beginning, but Shen Qingyu liked to see her feel pain like this. The most painful thing in this world is not the pain of flesh and skin, but the sorrow of not getting it.
Jiang Xue smiled and said, "It seems that you have learned a lot." It's a good way to stir up feelings. β
Shen whispered: "The person who should have married Ziyan should be me, and in the three years that I have disappeared, there has not been a minute or a second that has not been painful." What if she could taste this pain?".
What Shen whispered said, Jiang Xue actually knew. When Jiang Xue was young, she actually experienced this. Regardless of whether what Shen whispered was true or false, Jiang Xue felt that it didn't matter.
"You go back first, it's late today. Later, Shen Fanxi and Gu Ziyan will also come back, and it won't be good to see you here. Jiang Xue saw that it was late at night, and she should pay attention to safety when she went home as a girl. It's so young, and it's more revealing than the clothes you wear, so it's not good if something happens.
Jiang Xue didn't know why she was so good to Shen Qingyu, probably because she had always wanted a girl back then, and Shen Qingyu was inexplicably very similar to when she was young, in Jiang Xue's subconscious, maybe she had regarded her as her daughter.
"Okay, good night Aunt Xue. Shen whispered without lingering, and drove away from Gu's house.
