Yanzi Valley of Jingcheng

Chapter 139

Xiao Jie still remembered the day when he saw Shu Qian for the first time, this woman was like the snow-like white crane at the door of the study, she could be seen from a distance but not played with.

Shu Qian has been running a not-profitable bookstore all these years alone, away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and her behavior has proved that she is indeed out of tune with the mainstream crowd.

Shu Qian's thoughts are as broad and deep as the books in her library, Xiao Jie should have appreciated them, but after what happened tonight, Shu Qian's feeling for Xiao Jie seems to have changed.

When Shu Qian told Xiao Jie that she had a rich husband, Xiao Jie accurately captured the bitterness in her smile.

Xiao Jie was thinking, if Shu Qian loved her husband Hu Yi, why didn't she have any sense of happiness or satisfaction on her face when she said this?

If Shu Qian didn't love Hu Yi, why would she marry him?

Is it because Hu Yi has money?
As it stands now, this is the only explanation.

Xiao Jie found out that Baihe Bookstore opened four years ago. According to Shu Qian, she opened this bookstore as soon as she graduated. Assuming she has a bachelor’s degree and graduated at the age of 22, she is only about 26 years old now , and Hu Yi is 47 years old.

As an entrepreneur, although Hu Yi can't achieve excellence, he is indeed excellent. Hu Yi has many industries in his hands. A community group buying company like Hu's Technology is just something that Hu Yi really wants to try, but in the end he has to for various reasons. Abandoned semi-finished products.

A woman chooses to marry a rich man who is 21 years older than herself when she is young. There seems to be nothing wrong. Without bread, she has to sacrifice her dreams, especially if her dreams cannot bring her enough. bread.

No matter how pure art is, it needs money to support it.

It's just that Xiao Jie doesn't understand that there are many ways for women to realize their dreams, why must they use such methods as attachment and exchange?

Or to put it this way, wouldn't it be a little selfish to simply use your husband as the cash machine of your dreams?
However, since Shu Qian is Hu Yi's wife, it can be explained that she knows more about the venture capital industry than others. After all, as an entrepreneur, Hu Yi often deals with investors. It must also be swayed.

Probably because he was tired physically and mentally after a day, and the neon lights on the road made Xiao Jie feel dazzling, so Xiao Jie turned the steering wheel and turned right into a small road with few people. Xiao Jie didn't know where this road would lead, so he was so aimless straight ahead.

Xiao Jie calculated his income. When the times are good, there are tens of millions. Even if it is bad, there is still a guarantee of 200 million. Although this income can cope with the high cost of living in Qingyang, Xiao Jie thinks it is not enough Support the "Peach Blossom Spring" in Shu Qian's heart.

In today's society, the weak are preyed upon by the strong. Whether it is a successful person or a person who is temporarily in poverty, it is not easy for anyone to live. It is impossible for Xiao Jie to take the initiative to choose to enshrine a "white man who only wants to do what he likes, without considering family benefits and costs." moonlight".

Xiao Jie had mixed feelings in his heart, and he felt very uncomfortable at the moment. He obviously didn't even talk about love, but it seemed that he had lost love.

That person was not what he liked.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jie suddenly felt a little regretful. He regretted why he came to Baihe Bookstore today. If he came at another time, Shu Qian might not have time to communicate with him alone. If he just returned the lunch box and left immediately, everything tonight It won't happen either.

If all this does not happen, then Baihe Bookstore will still be a very beautiful existence, providing a physical and spiritual habitat for Xiao Jie who is so busy every day.

But now this habitat has become no longer so pure.

At this time, Xiao Jie saw a wall not far ahead. He thought it was a T-junction, but he looked around and confirmed that it was a dead end.

Xiao Jie was supposed to turn the car around, but he simply turned the key and turned off the ignition, allowing the car to stop in place, leaning on the driver's seat with frowns and eyes closed, trying to rearrange the mess of thoughts.

It is said that a good investor must be good at knowing people, but Xiao Jie feels that he has completely misread this time. It is obvious that his advantage is limited to observing entrepreneurs, not a strange woman in a bookstore drink stand.

Why are you thinking so much?
Maybe Shu Qian just likes Hu Yi?

Maybe they just got married because they liked each other, and there was no exchange of interests at all.

If you think so, Baihe Bookstore will become much better.

Xiao Jie rubbed his temples, he felt that he thought about Shu Qian in a complicated way, just like he thought about his mother Xiao Qianxing in a complicated way before.

These people may not be complicated at first, but Xiao Jie himself is the one who is complicated. The job of venture capital makes Xiao Jie more and more obsessed with studying people's hearts, so he sometimes feels very tired, just like now.

"Ding dong." The WeChat notification sounded.

"Brother, guess who I'm with today?"

It was his younger brother Xiao Lie who sent the message. Xiao Lie sent a photo to Xiao Jie at the same time. The photo was taken at a hot pot restaurant. In the photo on the left is Xiao Lie holding a selfie stick, and on the right is holding a cup of coconut There is also a hot pot in the middle where the soup is almost boiled dry, and countless bamboo sticks for skewering meat.

Xiao Jie's eyes froze, because Guan Sha was wearing that light yellow dress again in the photo.

There are two dazzling diamond earrings shining on Guan Sha's earlobes. The corners of her smiling eyes are like the bright and bright first quarter moon in the night sky. They are very soft and beautiful, but without losing the color of sunshine. Guan Sha looks very happy in the photo.

Probably because the person in the same frame as Guan Sha is his younger brother Xiao Lie, so this is the first time that Xiao Jie does not feel that the beauty of Guan Sha makes him feel dazzling.

Guan Sha's appearance is very harmonious with Xiao Lie, her beauty reminded Xiao Jie of a poem: face is like the moon of Mid-Autumn Festival, color is like flowers of spring dawn.

Xiao Jie suddenly felt that compared to Shu Qian, Guan Sha was much simpler and purer. She was like a transparent glass, and Xiao Jie could tell what was in it at a glance. The most interesting thing was that Guan Sha was often worried about Xiao Jie I can't see through it, and I always yell out everything I have in my stomach.

"Brother, I can't accept that my future sister-in-law is not as good-looking as me. Sister Guan Sha has met the standard. She likes you so much that she has come to my school. She loves you so much, so hurry up and marry me back home!"

"By the way, didn't I join the school's external relations department before? Sister Guan Sha helped me to get sponsors. She promised to name sponsors for our school sports meeting, Girls' Day, and college students' rights protection month, so the student union is here I have met the performance standards for one year, and I became the first new director of our team to receive sponsorship this year. This kind of performance is estimated to be directly promoted to the director-general next year, so brother, I owe a lot to Sister Guan Sha For favors, if you don't mind, please give me your body, and help me return this favor!"

Xiao Lie's voices followed one after another, just as Xiao Jie was about to type to reply, a new voice came again.

"Brother, Mom told me that a professional woman like Guan Sha can't cook, so it's definitely not suitable for you, but I don't think it's a problem at all. Mom doesn't worry about you. She must be worried about a son who can't cook. A daughter-in-law is not suitable for her, I know what mom thinks best, you don't care about her, it's you who live, not her."

"It would be too wasteful for a woman like Sister Guan Sha to cook at home all day. I think her entrepreneurial idea is very good. Buying a house is indeed a difficult problem for everyone now. I think she will be a particularly successful female entrepreneur in the future." , will be very rich, and you have another advantage of marrying such a beautiful female entrepreneur, that is, at least she will not have time to hook up with Lao Wang next door. If you don’t have time to cook, you can hire someone who cooks delicious food Auntie, if it’s really not possible, I’ll make it for you, but you have to include food and shelter!”

"Speaking of food and housing...Brother, do you still remember the year my father passed away, you said that if I couldn't find a job, you would support me for the rest of my life..."

Xiao Lie's tone dimmed, but soon, he adjusted the next voice again.

"By the way, bro, why do I think my future sister-in-law must be prettier than me? Because bro, you are in finance. The professor in our department came back from Wall Street. He personally told us that financial men were very reliable at the beginning. , after the age of 50 or [-], I learned a lot of bad things and messed around, so there must be a beautiful sister-in-law at home to keep my brother safe, so as not to mess around with you!"

Xiao Jie couldn't laugh or cry when he heard Xiao Lie's message, and only heard Xiao Lie continue: "Mom told me about Guan Sha's feelings for you, but let me pretend not to know, and said that if you take the initiative to mention that you want to talk to Guan Sha I’m in charge of objecting when my sister is together, but I’m the brother who supports you! You delete all my information, or I’ll be done if Mom checks your phone on weekends, remember! Delete everything! I don’t know anything, The above conversation did not take place!"

Xiao Jie: "..."
