In the hotel.
Han Xiaoxia groggily got up from the bed. Her heart was filled with sorrow at first, but then she was slightly stunned.
She pulled the blanket away.
She looked exactly the same as how she had put on her clothes yesterday. The clean white bed sheets in the hotel were very smooth, and the fragrance of lavender wafted in the air.
Han Xiaoxia’s eyes rippled.
She walked to the phone in a daze and dialed the front desk.
“Hello, I’m a resident of Room 305.1 drank too much last night. Did you see how 1 came back?”
“Oh, oh, oh.”
“He carried me up and left?!”
It was unbelievable. After putting down the phone, Han Xiaoxia’s heart was filled with panic and confusion.
“This silly kid, why is he still as stupid as before? Didn’t I come out to get drunk to give you a chance? How did you earn so much money?”
As Han Xiaoxia was thinking about it, she noticed a stack of cash in front of the bedside table. It was about 1,000 yuan, and at the top was a note.
On it was Xu Wenping’s cool handwriting.
[The room has been paid for. Remember to have breakfast.]
It was a short and calm line of words.
Han Xiaoxia walked to the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror with a complicated expression. She endured the slight headache and began to take off her clothes to take a shower.
Although her outfit was really simple, it was simple, light, and comfortable from the inside out.
However, when she stood under the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror, Han Xiaoxia would feel sad from time to time. Even though she had become a craftsman who relied on her own skills to make a living, she would still be provoked from time to time in the hair salon.
No one seemed to think that she should rely on her own ability to eat.
Han Xiaoxia began to ponder.
The conversation between the two of them last night was interrupted by the arrival of the taxi. They did not have any further communication. However, according to Xu Wenping’s Second Uncle, Xu Wenping did have a woman.
“Is he a gentleman? His wife is prettier than me? He couldn’t be… Does he think I’m dirty?”
As she thought about it, Han Xiaoxia clenched her fists.
Her brows were furrowed, and her nails were about to pierce into her flesh, yet she did not feel any pain.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt this way.
‘Don’t tell me he thinks that there’s something going on between me and Zhang Yalong because of what happened yesterday?’
Usually, people like Han Xiaoxia had a greater need for self-esteem. Xu Wenping’s unmoving body actually made Han Xiaoxia feel a little insulted.
Although she had such feelings, she still had to continue with the new day.
Han Xiaoxia took a car back to where she belonged.
When she entered, Han Xiaoxia’s father was cutting a client’s hair. When he saw Han Xiaoxia walk in, her father’s face was gloomy at first, but then he calmed down and revealed a faint smile.
“Xiaoxia, you’re back.”
“Yes!”
“Actually, I think that child Wenping is quite good. When you were young, you weren’t at the age of dating. Now, if you guys are interested, I won’t stop you.”
Her father’s words stunned Han Xiaoxia. She was already an adult. Her father would definitely understand the meaning of not returning home for a night.
Before Han Xiaoxia could explain, her father’s phone rang. He quickly handed the scissors to Han Xiaoxia and said, “Here, cut it for her first. I’ll take a call.”
There was a trace of apology on her father’s face.
Han Xiaoxia took the scissors. At this moment, the customer also frowned and said, “Is it okay? What’s going on? Are you an apprentice?”
“Don’t worry, Auntie. My skills are much better than my dad’s. Let me cut it for you!”
As she was taking care of the customer’s emotions, she saw her father answer the phone with a serious expression. However, in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from sight outside the glass door.
Han Xiaoxia sighed in her heart.
Seeing her father’s anxious look, Han Xiaoxia suddenly felt that Xu Wenping easily solving the gambling debt problem yesterday was not necessarily a good thing.
“He said that he’s going to celebrate my birthday on August 15th. Will he come back?”
“Brat, you still dare to come back? If you step into this door today, I’ll kill you!”
Grandpa shouted angrily, and the sound had already picked up a bamboo stick and chased him out.
Second Uncle panicked and immediately shouted, “Old man, what do you want? My nephew is back today, don’t make things difficult for me! 1 didn’t even take it to heart. You gave my brother more money, but you actually want to hit me. Aiya! It hurts!”
“Mom! Mother! Save me!”
The stick fell on Second Uncle’s leg, and his branded trousers were injured as a result. He hurriedly shouted. At this moment, Grandma also rushed out and shouted extremely loudly, “Leader! Don’t hit him, don’t hit him. What should I do if it hurts my son?”
As the saying goes, too much of a mother’s love will ruin the child.
Grandma really spoiled Second Uncle. She blocked him when she went up. Grandpa’s stick could not fall on Grandma, so she could only gnash his teeth and throw the stick.
“Just let yourself be spoiled. Humph! You’re poking my nose. Am I sick? Are you hoping that I’m dead so that your sister-in-law can pay for your burial so that you can go out and have fun?”
“How is that possible… Isn’t that what Boss owes me?”
Second Uncle was still speaking in a righteous manner. He turned around and looked at Xu Wenping, grimacing. “I’m really worried about you for nothing. Don’t you know how to stop your grandfather?”
“But Grandma will stop him.” Xu Wenping smiled bitterly and said, “Alright, Second Uncle. Come in, let’s drink some wine with Grandpa.”
“Who’s willing to sit with him?” Grandpa rolled his eyes. Although he was very angry with his son, there was nothing he could do.
Second Uncle chuckled as soon as he got on the table. There was some food that Xu Wenping had brought today on the table. It seemed like Second Uncle was hungry… “Then I won’t stand on ceremony!”
The three of them drank two glasses of wine before Xu Wenping said, “Second Uncle, are you still running your law firm?”
Although he did not do any proper work, Second Uncle was still very good at it. He rented a big house in the city with Boss Zhang in it. It was called the ‘Peace Office’ and specialized in helping people settle matters.
He didn’t know if anyone had fallen for Second Uncle’s trick.
“All, right. They’re all alright!”
Grandpa was disappointed. “What firm? You’re a scammer. If you really can’t do it, come up the mountain with me to dig for mountain products!”
“Who is that thing going to dig into the ground for food?” Second Uncle rolled his eyes.
Seeing that the father and son were about to fight again, Xu Wenping smiled bitterly and took out a bank card. He handed it to Second Uncle and said, “Second Uncle, nephew is also grown up. This is nephew’s filial piety to you. Just take the money. If it’s not enough, just give me a call.”
“Don’t call my mom in the future. The old couple squeezes money under their fingernails. How could they be more forthright than me?”
“Don’t you think so?”
Seeing that more than half of his life had passed, Second Uncle had to rely on deception to live. He usually loved to pretend to be magnanimous, but in fact, he did not have any bad habits.
Second Uncle’s eyes lit up.
He quickly put the card in his hand, and Second Uncle chuckled. “My nephew is still the best.. Second Uncle didn’t dote on you for nothing!”
