Chapter 362 - Chapter 362: Chapter 362: The Annoying Miao Cuihua (2/2)

Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, Liu Sisi hurriedly tried to stop it.

“Miao Cuihua, what nonsense are you talking about? That bookstore belongs to Brother Nan, and I just have a share in it. The way you casually said it, it seemed like the shop has become mine. Do you even know how to speak?”

“Eh! If you have a share, isn’t it your bookstore? Besides, the silver that Shou Hou brought back isn’t fake!”

Miao Cuihua had a look of smug satisfaction on her face: “Sisi! If there’s any good work opportunity, don’t forget about me! I might not have many talents, but I do have strength. You can count on me!”

Miao Cuihua laughed heartily and proudly pounded her chest a few times.

Liu Sisi frowned repeatedly, but Miao Cuihua still felt good about herself.

“Enough, stop messing around! Sit down, you’re blocking everyone’s view of the opera.”

Fed up with her antics, Liu Sisi quickly pulled her down, seating her beside herself. Liu Sisi then glared at her and whispered into her ear, “If you keep talking nonsense, after the new year begins, Shou Hou won’t need to help in the bookstore anymore!”

“Don’t, Sisi—I know you think my Shou Hou is a good person, so you specially introduced him to help out in your bookstore! I, Miao Cuihua, understand all this!”

It was then Miao Cuihua realized Liu Sisi’s expression had changed. Cuihua immediately stopped talking and leaned over with a flattering smile.

“Didn’t you come to me initially, asking me to find work for Shou Hou? Why are you saying this now?”

Liu Sisi was angry and feeling increasingly uncomfortable!

Miao Cuihua was absolutely inconsiderate of others. When Liu Sisi first came to her, asking her to help find work for Shou Hou, the bookstore just happened to need someone. It was strange how the words came out of Miao Cuihua’s mouth.

“Sisi, I didn’t mean it that way! I… I’m not good with words, so please don’t take it to heart.”

Miao Cuihua wanted to explain, but seeing Liu Sisi’s expression change in the firelight, she didn’t know how to begin.

“Enough! Watch the opera.”

Liu Sisi could not help but shift a little away from Miao Cuihua, and without saying more, she lifted her head to pretend to watch the stage performance in seriousness.

In fact, she was not really paying attention to what was happening on stage.

Miao Cuihua tried to chat several times but stopped when she realized Liu Sisi was not paying her any attention.

At first, Liu Sisi felt okay sitting there, but after some time, she started to feel suffocated. Especially the performers on stage, their singing was like noise, and sitting there made it unbearable.

“Sisi, here, eat some of this. You’ll feel better.”

Guihua, seeing the uneasiness on her face, quickly handed her something to put in her mouth. Instantly, a sour taste spread over her tongue, refreshing her expression.

“This is sour plum. Its sour and sweet taste is really good. Moreover, it’s homemade and perfect for pregnant women. It not only satisfies cravings but also refreshes the mind.”

Guihua chuckled softly, making Liu Sisi feel grateful and smile.

“Thank you, Sister Guihua. You understand me the best.”
