C24 (1/2)
Gu Yifei's words were obviously full of ill intentions, especially her insinuation had reached an extremely obvious point.
But I think I just took over this restaurant. Although she is not Lin Yufan's wife yet, she is still Lin Yufan's fiancée, and being able to take over this restaurant is already not an easy feat. It's better not to make things awkward the first time we meet.
I nodded awkwardly. ”I took over the hotel to pay off my debts, and now I'm under a lot of pressure. I just want to do my job and pay off my debts as soon as possible.”
Gu Yifei nodded, circled around the restaurant once, then drove off.
I was busy until dark, and thinking of having a good talk with Master Liu Da and letting him go back to the hotel anyway, I called him and asked him to join me for a meal and a talk about it.
Master Liu Da agreed. I thought that Zhao Duo must have not eaten since she was at home alone. Thus, I called Zhao Duo and asked her to come over for dinner.
Over dinner, I told Master Liu Da that he had to go back to the restaurant to continue his work no matter what, and I told him how I was doing. Master Liu Da expressed his deep sympathy and said that he had been hired by another restaurant, but he had not yet gone to it, so he quit the restaurant and came to me.
I was especially happy and accompanied Master Liu to drink two more cups.
While I was drinking, my mother-in-law called twice to ask me to come home, but I had already filed my divorce suit, ready to divorce Xu Ziyin, so what would happen if I went home?
It was either my mother-in-law crying or they trying to come up with a new way to stop me from getting a divorce.
Around nine in the morning, Zhao Duo and I supported each other as we walked back.
Honestly speaking, I was quite happy that we managed to settle this matter with Liu Da. Due to what happened yesterday, Zhao Duo felt dissatisfied and drank quite a bit.
We walked back, supporting each other.
Nanny called again. This time, her tone of voice changed. ”Eight o'clock, you just decided to get a divorce, didn't you?”
”Yes.” I answered the phone and nodded.
”You can't leave! Eight o'clock. What if the consonant could open its eyes and speak tomorrow? Eight o'clock, he's still young … ”
”Alright, Mom. I can understand your feelings. What you did last night was wicked enough, so don't try to persuade me. I will definitely not continue to live with him.” I picked up the phone and drank.
”No —” Grandma shouted from the phone. ”It's normal for men to look for trouble occasionally. Eight o'clock in the morning, you can't just hold onto this matter and not let it go …”
”Mom, you think it's normal, but I don't think it's normal. He can cheat, so I have the right to divorce.”
”Eight o'clock, I'm begging you, please don't divorce, okay?” The mother-in-law's voice trembled, but at that time, the scene of Xu Ziyin cheating surfaced in my mind once again, ”Mom, I'm done with this marriage, so don't say anymore.”
”Eight o'clock Liu, you're not going to change it, right? Then …” Then, I'll make you regret it! ” Grandma shouted over the phone.
”I won't regret it. I don't have anything to regret in the face of a heartless man!” I shouted over the phone, just as angrily.
After putting down the phone, Zhao Duo said from the side, ”Your mother-in-law is so agitated, she won't be unhappy, right?”
”No way.” I drank my wine and was so tired these past few days that I wanted to go back and visit my mother-in-law. However, thinking that seeing her was just a matter of this kind, and not letting me get divorced, I shook my head and left with Zhao Duo.
I'm too tired.
After washing up, he fell asleep with Zhao Duo on the bed.
