Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 721 Christmas Eve Gift

Xu Xiuwen took the menu and ordered four dishes and one soup.

After ordering, Liu Ruo walked away.

Xu Xiuwen turned to look at An Shishi and said, "Shishi, why didn't you tell me? It was so sudden and I was not prepared at all."

An Shishi suddenly stopped smiling and said, "Okay, husband, stop acting."

"What do you mean?" Xu Xiuwen looked confused.

An Shishi blinked and said, "You took me to the community where my mother lives, because you just wanted me to find her by myself. Why are you pretending to be so surprised?"

"Forehead……"

Xu Xiuwen had nothing to say, so he had to touch his nose to hide his embarrassment.

I originally wanted to pretend it.

Unexpectedly, An Shishi saw it directly.

In fact, when I took An Shishi to Liu Ruo's community.

He was already ready for An Shishi to find Liu Ruo.

He even did it on purpose.

In this way, he would not break his promise with Liu Ruo, but he could also put An Shishi at ease.

He knew that the day An Shishi couldn't see her mother, the day she couldn't feel at ease.

Doing so kills two birds with one stone.

I just didn't expect An Shishi to be so smart and see through his intentions right away.

An Shishi smiled faintly, "Okay, hubby, I won't tell my mother, so don't worry."

Xu Xiuwen simply stopped pretending, "It would be great if you mother and daughter reunited."

An Shishi suddenly came over, kissed his face, and said, "Thank you, husband, you are so considerate."

Soon the food was served at the restaurant.

Liu Ruo can't eat together because she is still at work.

Xu Xiuwen and An Shishi had no choice but to eat first.

Liu Ruo is now very familiar with this job and is very busy in the store.

An Shishi felt a little distressed after seeing it.

She suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Xu Xiuwen, but stopped talking.

After Xu Xiuwen saw it, he asked, "What do you want to say?"

An Shishi suddenly shook her head and said, "It's okay."

Xu Xiuwen frowned, "You still want to hide it from me?"

An Shishi explained: "I don't want to hide it, I just don't want you to worry."

"Your business is my business. I worry about it and I'm happy to do it. Tell me quickly, otherwise I will have to take care of you."

An Shishi blushed when she heard that the family was waiting for her.

She still showed hesitation and her expression was a little nervous: "Husband, I want my mother to change her job."

Xu Xiuwen frowned immediately.

An Shishi immediately noticed the way Xu Xiuwen looked at her.

She explained: "I don't think it's embarrassing for her to be a waiter, I just think it's too hard for her. I didn't have the ability to make her live a good life before, but now that I know my husband, I want my mother to be more relaxed. Do you think I So selfish."

Xu Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't think you are selfish, but I think this is the attitude you should have. If you are indifferent, I will think you are selfish."

An Shishi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"What job do you want your mother to change?"

Xu Xiuwen actually found it difficult for Liu Ruo to change jobs because she had neither a diploma nor any special skills.

It seems like I can't do anything else except the service industry.

An Shishi shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just have this idea, but I don't know what she can do?"

Xu Xiuwen thought for a while and suggested: "How about letting her go to work in my company and give her a casual position where she doesn't have to do anything."

I originally thought An Shishi would agree without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, An Shishi refused.

"Husband, no. My mother doesn't know anything. It's not appropriate to go to your company, and it will also make people think that you are employing nepotism, which is not conducive to your management of the company."

An Shishi could think of this for his sake.

Xu Xiuwen was a little moved.

At this time, An Shishi suddenly suggested: "Husband, what do you think about letting my mother open a small shop?"

"Open a small shop?"

An Shishi nodded, "Yes, open a small shop. Don't underestimate my mother. She is very good at math and settles accounts very quickly."

"I'm not looking down on Auntie, but opening a store requires not only being able to calculate accounts, but also being able to do many things."

As soon as Xu Xiuwen finished speaking, he noticed An Shishi's disappointed expression.

Xu Xiuwen couldn't bear it, so he added, "Don't be disappointed yet. Although you need to know a lot of things to open a store, I think Auntie is so smart that it shouldn't be a problem."

An Shishi suddenly smiled in surprise.

Xu Xiuwen put his hand on An Shishi's thigh, patted it gently and said, "But opening a store is not a trivial matter. Not only do we need to discuss whether or not to open a store, but also what kind of store to open, we also have to consider auntie's opinion. How about we talk about this later?"

An Shishi was very excited and ignored Xu Xiuwen's hand.

She said with a smile on her face, "Thank you, husband."

After An Shishi finished speaking, she picked up another piece of meat and brought it to Xu Xiuwen's mouth.

Xu Xiuwen smiled and ate it.

If it were any other man, he would just say that we would talk later, which would probably be perfunctory.

But An Shishi never doubted whether Xu Xiuwen was perfunctory with her.

This stems from her understanding of Xu Xiuwen's character and her unconditional trust in him.

Xu Xiuwen really didn't think about dealing with An Shishi.

He felt that An Shishi's proposal was inappropriate at first.

But after thinking about it carefully, I think it is feasible.

Liu Ruoke doesn't know how to open a store and doesn't know how to operate it.

She won't.

Some people do.

You can find someone to teach her, or even pay to learn.

In fact, most people don't know everything before opening a store. They just explore slowly and accumulate experience.

And he still remembered Liu Ruo saying that when she was in school, her grades were always among the best.

It shows that Liu Ruo's mind is not stupid.

Therefore, it is not impossible to open a store for Liu Ruo.

The key is what kind of store to open?

You have to choose a good direction.

It's about whether you can make money.

Of course, with Xu Xiuwen's current net worth, even if he doesn't make any money, he will lose some money.

It doesn't matter to him.

But since Xu Xiuwen was going to worry about it, he had to worry about it to the end.

Try to ensure that Liu Ruo can make money by opening a store and have a way to make a living.

After dinner, Liu Ruo still had to go to work.

Xu Xiuwen took An Shishi out for a drive.

Wait until Liu Ruo gets off work.

Xu Xiuwen drove the two of them to Liu Ruo's residence.

Obviously, this is not the first time An Shishi has come.

Because she didn't look around after entering the door, but walked to the bathroom naturally.

night.

Liu Ruo cooked a meal at home.

The two people who had already eaten ate some more with Liu Ruo.

An Shuishui also made a phone call.

I learned it from An Shishi.

She had already told An Shuishui about Liu Ruoshui's coming to Jinling.

An Shuishui was also surprised at first.

But he soon accepted the reality.

The mother and daughter chatted on the phone for a long time.

It is worth mentioning that.

From beginning to end, no one mentioned An's father.

This shows how much An's father failed as a husband and as a father.

Xu Xiuwen didn't think the An sisters were too heartless.

Living in that kind of environment, it is not easy to grow up healthy both physically and mentally, and to be admitted to a key university.

He also asked the two of them to attach great importance to An's father and care about them.

Not realistic at all.

Especially An Shishi.

She can be regarded as being sold to him by Father An.

10 yuan!
  No one in Liujia Village could find a higher betrothal gift than An Shishi.

So Xu Xiuwen didn't think there was anything wrong at all.

night.

An Shishi also told Liu Ruo her and Xu Xiuwen's thoughts.

Liu Ruo was surprised.

She was a little hesitant, a little reserved, and a little worried.

Xu Xiuwen knew exactly what she was thinking, and told her with a smile that she didn't need to consider anything else, and he agreed to open the store.

Only then did Liu Ruo feel relieved.

She was really afraid that her daughter was insisting on asking Xu Xiuwen to pay.

She was afraid that this would offend Xu Xiuwen and affect their relationship.

After knowing that Xu Xiuwen also supported it, I felt relieved.

Later, Xu Xiuwen had a serious chat with Liu Ruo for a long time and understood her thoughts.

Xu Xiuwen meant to rent a storefront and open a small shop or supermarket.

A small shop like this usually can't lose money, it's just a matter of making more or less.

The key is that An Shishi and An Shuishui are both taken care of by him.

There is no need to spend Liu Ruo’s money.

So Liu Ruo only needs to make enough money to support himself.

But Liu Ruo was not interested in opening a store.

Xu Xiuwen asked her what store she wanted to open.

Liu Ruo didn't answer directly. Instead, she took a long detour and told him about the situation of the restaurant where she now works.

Xu Xiuwen probably heard it.

Liu Ruo seems to want to open a restaurant.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly thought of Mu Zhilan.

He and Mu Zhilan had not seen each other since that night last time.

But he had promised to introduce a job to Mu Zhilan.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

night.

Xu Xiuwen and An Shishi stayed at Liu Ruo's residence for the night.

Xu Xiuwen originally wanted An Shishi to sleep with Liu Ruo at night.

He sleeps alone in the guest room.

But An Shishi took the initiative to sleep with him, and said that Liu Ruo already knew about their relationship and wouldn't say anything.

Xu Xiuwen had no choice but to agree.

Maybe it was to repay Xu Xiuwen.

An Shishi tried her best to make him happy that night.

Xu Xiuwen was indeed happy.

However, seeing the tired An Shishi, I couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Finally, he hugged An Shishi tightly.

The girl also hugged Xu Xiuwen with a satisfied look on her face and fell asleep.

And Liu Ruo was in the next room.

Xu Xiuwen and An Shishi made a lot of noise.

Of course she heard it too.

Some sounds made even her blush when she heard them.

She really wanted to go over and remind her daughter to keep her voice down.

But I was too embarrassed to go there for fear of disturbing the two of them.

I had to endure it.

At first it was just uneasiness.

But gradually.

She felt a little uncomfortable.

after a long time.

Liu Ruo secretly got out of bed and took another shower.

The school football match of Jiaotong University started with great enthusiasm again.

The plumber department led by Yang Baishan made it all the way to the top eight.

But unfortunately, the top 8 teams encountered a strong opponent, the Manual Department, and were beaten 1:4 by the entire audience. It was a pity that they lost.

Yang Baishan was lost on the court.

But he found his place in the relationship.

He and Qian Yue reconciled again.

Maybe it was because of what Xu Xiuwen said that day.

Yang Baishan no longer cares about why Qian Yue didn't bleed.

He wanted to believe that it was Qian Yue's first time.

As a result, the two of them were glued together like glue.

In a blink of an eye, it’s the final day of the football match.

As expected, the final was won by the Department of Engineering.

That is to say, the team that defeated the plumber department. So Yang Baishan always said that he was the runner-up, but he was unlucky enough to meet the champion early.

The days in student days always pass quickly.

After Xu Xiuwen’s meal last time.

Xiao and Song were supposed to be as powerful as fire and water.

The relationship remains in an eerie balance.

The two have been competing secretly, but there has been no direct conflict.

Both of them seemed to be planning to win this competition by winning Xu Xiuwen's heart.

So Xu Xiuwen rarely had a happy time.

During this period, Xu Chengwei invited Xu Xiuwen to his home for dinner twice.

They were all declined by Xu Xiuwen.

He probably guessed what Xu Chengwei was thinking.

It is estimated that as long as he goes, Xu Chengyi, who is suspected to be his biological father, may also be there.

Xu Xiuwen feels that life is very good now.

He doesn't need a father.

So he kept looking for excuses to refuse Xu Chengwei's invitation.

In a blink of an eye, it’s the day before Christmas.

As soon as I woke up this morning, the doorbell rang.

Xu Xiuwen received a 'gift' after opening the door.

The person who gave the gift was the owner of a nearby fruit shop.

Xu Xiuwen has lived here at Jiaotong University for four years, so of course he knows the owner of this store.

The boss told him that someone had ordered this gift in advance and asked him to deliver it this morning.

Xu Xiuwen asked who made the reservation in advance.

The boss said that he didn't know her name either, but he only remembered that she was a very beautiful girl.

There are many beautiful girls around Xu Xiuwen.

With just this sentence, he couldn't guess who it was.

After the fruit shop owner left, Xu Xiuwen closed the door and returned to the living room.

He opened the box in which the apples were packaged, and a small card suddenly fell out.

The little card read: "Xu Xiuwen, I can't spend Christmas Eve with you today. I hope you are happy and remember to miss me."

Note: Your little baby.

Seeing this note, Xu Xiuwen no longer had to guess.

It turned out to be a gift from Bai Yue'er.

Looking at the content on the card, it seemed that the handwriting was written by Bai Yue'er himself.

In fact, he even forgot to give Bai Yue'er an apple.

As a result, Bai Yue'er remembered this incident.

Even though no one was in Jinling, I ordered apples in advance.

If Xu Xiuwen could not be moved.

In addition to an apple, the box also contained a small box.

Xu Xiuwen didn't pay attention at first.

After he tore off the wrapping paper on the outside of the box.

When he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

It's actually a watch.

By Vacheron Constantin.

Vacheron Constantin is a luxury watch brand.

None of its watches are cheap.

If the piece in his hand is real, then it costs at least 20.

If it was given by another girl.

Xu Xiuwen definitely thought it was a fake watch.

Because they can't afford it.

But Bai Yue'er got a lot of money from the company.

She can afford this watch.

Xu Xiuwen picked up his hand and looked at it carefully.

As a non-professional watch appraiser, he did not see that it was a fake.

Xu Xiuwen basically felt that this watch was a real watch.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Bai Yue'er didn't know whether to call her careless.

Just give such an expensive watch to the fruit shop owner casually.

What if the boss opened the box and took a look, found that it was an expensive watch, and kept it for himself?
  But Xu Xiuwen was deeply moved by the girl's thoughtfulness.

At least at this moment, he wanted to fly to the Magic City to spend Christmas Eve with Bai Yue'er.

But he quickly calmed down.

Not to mention that the crew has shooting plans today, and Bai Yue'er, as the heroine, couldn't get away.

He had already promised to spend the holidays with Xiao Youran today.

Xu Xiuwen sent a text message to Bai Yue'er.

Tell her that he received the gift and was very happy. When she finishes filming the drama, he will take her on a trip and spend time with her.

Bai Yue'er quickly replied to the text message.

He could feel the girl's excitement even through words.

Xu Xiuwen looked at the watch in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and did not choose to put it on. Instead, he put the watch back into the box and put it away.

In the evening, Xu Xiuwen accompanied Xiao Youran to celebrate the festival.

Xiao Youran also presented apples in person.

The next day is Christmas.

in the morning.

Xiao Youran was still lying in bed and didn't want to get up.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly received a call.

It's an unknown number.

Xu Xiuwen didn't plan to pick it up, but after thinking about it he decided to pick it up.

After the call is connected.

Xu Xiuwen was quickly stunned.

Because the caller was Huang Bao.

It was the man who had accompanied Gu Pandi to the hospital to pick up Gu's mother from the hospital and donated money to help.

Xu Xiuwen donated money without any hope of receiving gratitude or reward.

So he never showed up in front of Huang Bao.

therefore.

Huang Bao can find him.

Xu Xiuwen was quite surprised.

On the phone, Huang Bao kept thanking Xu Xiuwen and said that he had come to Jinling and hoped to meet him.

Xu Xiuwen agreed after hesitation and arranged a meeting place.

Put down the phone.

Xiao Youran asked in a daze: "Xiao Xu, who called you so early?"

Xu Xiuwen said: "A person I'm not very familiar with."

"Then why did he call you?"

"I don't know, I'll find out when we meet."

Xiao Youran suddenly sobered up a little.

She opened her eyes and looked over, "Xiao Xu, do you want to go out?"

Xu Xiuwen apologized and said, "Youran, I might as well go out."

Xiao Youran pouted and asked, "Then when will you come back?"

"Not sure, but it shouldn't be later than dinner time at the latest."

"Then I won't be able to see you all day?" Xiao Youran was already unhappy just thinking about it.

"I'm sorry, Youran, otherwise I won't go?" Xu Xiuwen asked tentatively.

Xiao Youran sighed and said: "Forget it, you better go. I don't want you to delay business because of me."

When Xu Xiuwen heard this, he immediately laughed.

He stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Xiao Youran's nose, and praised, "My Youran is becoming more and more sensible now. I really don't even want to like you or not."

Xiao Youran smiled shyly and grabbed the quilt to cover half of his face.

then.

Xu Xiuwen got up and washed up.

After finishing preparations, Xu Xiuwen suddenly thought of something and said to Xiao Youran on the bed: "You can continue to sleep. If I finish early, I will call you. Otherwise, you can eat by yourself at noon."

Xiao Youran said: "I'd better go back to school to eat at noon."

"That's okay too."

Xu Xiuwen was about to leave, but after thinking about it, he came back and kissed Xiao Youran.

Xiao Youran was obviously a little surprised, but he was more happy and surprised.

Leave from Jiangning Garden.

Xu Xiuwen drove to the place where he and Huang Bao agreed to meet.

When he arrived, Huang Bao had already arrived.

Xu Xiuwen asked casually: "Have you had breakfast?"

Huang Bao shook his head.

"Let's go, I haven't eaten either, so I'll take you to have breakfast."

Huang Bao agreed after hesitating.

Went to a nearby beef noodle restaurant.

Xu Xiuwen ordered two bowls of beef noodles.

During this period, Xu Xiuwen didn't say anything, but simply cared about the situation of Huang Bao's mother.

Huang Bao said that her mother had undergone surgery and it went well. She has been discharged from the hospital for the time being, but she still has to take immune preparations.

After hearing this, Xu Xiuwen smiled and said congratulations.

Huang Bao was very excited and kept saying words of thanks.

If Xu Xiuwen hadn't pulled him.

He probably just knelt down in front of other customers in the store.

After eating noodles.

Come out of the store.

Xu Xiuwen said: "Find a quiet place to sit for a while."

Then Xu Xiuwen drove Huang Bao to the company.

After arriving at his office.

Xu Xiuwen asked: "Huang Bao, how did you know it was me who donated the money?"

Huang Bao also explained the situation without hiding anything.

It turned out that after Huang Bao learned that someone had donated, he decided to thank him in person.

He pestered the doctor until he became impatient.

Finally, Huang Bao found Xu Xiuwen's phone number from the hospital.

However, Huang Bao thought that he must thank him in person, so he did not call immediately. Instead, he waited until his mother's situation stabilized before running to Jinling alone.

As Huang Bao spoke, he suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Xiuwen three times.

Xu Xiuwen didn't have time to stop it, so he didn't stop it.

However, from Huang Bao's kowtow action, it can be seen that he is a grateful person.

Xu Xiuwen still admires this kind of people.

Huang Bao said that he not only came to thank Xu Xiuwen, but also said that he would definitely pay Xu Xiuwen back.

Xu Xiuwen waved his hand and said no.

Huang Bao insisted on paying back the money.

When there is a dispute.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly asked, "Do you have a job now?"

Huang Bao was immediately embarrassed.

He finally said: "My benefactor, I will find a job as soon as possible and work hard to make money to pay back the money."

Xu Xiuwen looked at Huang Bao's figure and thought of his status as a veteran, and suddenly his heart moved.

Xu Xiuwen asked: "Let's not talk about repaying the money for now. Although your mother has completed the operation, the subsequent expenses are not small. You should work hard to make money and take care of your mother first."

Huang Bao looked embarrassed.

He knew that Xu Xiuwen was telling the truth.

Although he said he wanted to pay back the money, he had no ability to pay back the money in the short term.

At this time.

Xu Xiuwen took the initiative and asked, "What job are you planning to find?"

Huang Bao shook his head: "I don't know, let's find him first. I can do anything if I don't pick him."

Xu Xiuwen asked: "I do have a job here, I wonder if you are willing to do it!"

Huang Bao was stunned for a moment, with surprise and gratitude flashing in his eyes.

But he shook his head: "Benefactor, you have already done me a huge favor, how can I keep asking you to help me."

Xu Xiuwen smiled.

It seems that Huang Bao is not the kind of person who tries to push his limits.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense anymore and said directly: "I won't talk nonsense. If you are willing, I will arrange for you to work in my factory. Your job will be as a security guard, and the salary will be the same as that of normal employees in the factory. If you are willing, Just nod, forget it if you don’t want to.”

Huang Bao saw Xu Xiuwen's face and knew that he was serious.

Although it's just a security guard job.

But for today's Huang Bao, it is also a good choice.

At least working as a security guard in a factory sounds very stable.

In his current situation, what he needs most is stability.

It was really hard for Huang Bao to refuse.

　Just a little preview, the Shura Field will be next. There are a lot of participants, it’s a bit exciting, and if your heart is not in good condition, it’s recommended to skip it.
