Blackening starts from the golden years

Chapter 221 Living at Wang Manni’s house
Gu Jia's home.

After Yuan Xudong and Zhong Xiaoqin left, Gu Jia looked at her husband Xu Huanshan and smiled:
"How was your chat with Mr. Yuan?"

"We had a good chat."

Xu Huanshan said happily:

"I told Mr. Yuan about my dream. I wanted to design a unique blue firework. Mr. Yuan especially supported me."

"I'm just saying some kind words to you, but do you really take it seriously?"

Gu Jia smiled slightly and said:

"Besides, our family still has a large mortgage to pay off, and Xu Ziyan will study abroad in the future. Your first priority now is to make money to support the family. As for the blue fireworks you mentioned, we can talk about it later, okay?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Xu Huanshan smiled. Compared with the smile that was truly happy from the heart before, the smile on his face now was more fake because of responsibility and patience.

Of course Gu Jia knew the grievances Xu Huanshan felt, but Xu Huanshan was like her eldest son. Everything she did was for the good of her son. As for the grievances in her son's heart, wouldn't it be better soon? ?

At this time, Xu Huanshan's cell phone rang, and he answered the call:
"what's up?"

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone and seeing that Xu Huanshan's face looked wrong, Gu Jia couldn't help but feel tight in her heart and said:

"what happened?"

Xu Huanshan looked ugly and said:

"There's something wrong with the company, please come with me."

"it is good."

Gu Jia was also a little worried. Their family had just changed to a house in Junyue Mansion, and they still had a large bank loan. At this time, the fireworks company couldn't have any problems.

Letting the nanny Chen Auntie stay at home to take care of Xu Ziyan, Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan rushed to Jiamei Fireworks Company together.

……

As soon as they arrived at the company, Xu Huanshan and Gu Jia found the company's financial officer Xu Sheng. Xu Sheng reported to them the company's current situation:

"The accountant from Li's head office called and said that their company wanted to postpone payment."

Xu Huanshan frowned slightly and said:

"Did they say how long they wanted to extend it?"

"It's said to be next quarter."

Gu Jia interjected:
"If Mr. Li's money cannot be received, will there be a problem with our capital chain?"

Xu Sheng nodded and replied:

"Yes, there will be big problems, and Mr. Wan keeps lowering the price and refuses to let go, and also proposes new payment methods. If this continues, there will definitely be problems with the capital chain connection of our Jiamei Company, and even next month The employees’ wages cannot be paid.”

"Then how to solve it?"

Xu Huanshan couldn't help but ask, Xu Sheng glanced at him and replied:
"Mr. Xu, do you think you can have another talk with Mr. Wan and the others?"

"Still talking, how many times have we already talked about this?"

Xu Huanshan said angrily:

"I won't talk about it anyway. If I continue to talk about it, I won't be able to suppress the anger."

Glancing at Xu Huanshan who was having a bad temper, Xu Sheng was a little speechless. The company is almost over, why are you still having a bad temper?
At this time, Gu Jia looked at Xu Sheng and smiled:
"Xu Sheng, you go and do your work first, and we will discuss it later."

"Ok."

Xu Sheng left Xu Huanshan's office directly. At Jiamei Fireworks Company, Gu Jia's words worked better than Xu Huanshan's.

After Xu Sheng left, Gu Jia looked at Xu Huanshan who was still losing his temper and said with a smile:
"Honey, don't get emotional. This phone call must still be made. If you really don't want to make it, then I'll make it?"

"Then you fight, I don't even want to hear it now."

Xu Huanshan left the office directly. Seeing him like this, Gu Jia had no choice but to call Mr. Wan and the others in person.

Wan is the largest customer of Jiamei Fireworks Company. His orders account for half of the total orders of Jiamei Fireworks Company. If these half of the orders are lost, Jiamei Fireworks Company will be finished and their family will go bankrupt because of this. This is Gu Jia A dilemma that must be avoided at all costs.

After Mr. Wan's call was answered, Gu Jia smiled and said:

"Mr. Wan, I'm Gu Jia. We all know each other so well. If you have anything to say, I'll just say it."

"You must make this year's list for our family."

"Yes, I know. I know all about Huanshan. If you place an order, I will take care of it."

"Okay, it's settled. I will definitely treat Mr. Wan to dinner another day. Thank you, Mr. Wan. Goodbye, Mr. Wan."

The phone was hung up, and Xu Huanshan walked into the office again. He peeled an orange in his hand and asked:
"What did he say?"

"Mr. Wan said that we will discuss the price after your design plan comes out, but the payment method is still the same as before."

Gu Jia smiled and said, she saw the oranges that Xu Huanshan was peeling in his hand and couldn't help but ask:

"Where did you get the oranges?"

"Li Ke gave it to me, saying it was a vitamin supplement. Please try it."

Xu Huanshan smiled and said, he handed a peeled orange to Gu Jia's mouth.

Gu Jia tasted it, smiled slightly and said:

"It's quite sweet. I'll leave first. You should come back early in the evening. Don't always stay in the company and work late shifts. It's not good for your health."

"Ok, I know."

Xu Huanshan nodded and smiled. Gu Jia casually glanced at the label on the orange peel, then turned and left Xu Huanshan's office.

Before leaving the company, she looked back at Li Ke, the new intern in the company. He was still very young, a female college student who had just graduated. She was chatting and laughing with other employees in the company, with a young girl's expression on her face. With a smile full of youthful vitality, Gu Jia seemed to see herself ten years ago.

Ten years later, she has become a woman with a husband and a son. She will never allow anyone to take shortcuts and think about winning at a young age, destroying what she finally gained after ten years of hard work. Happy life today.

After taking a look at Li Ke, Gu Jia left the company with her bag on her back. She didn't go home directly, but looked for the kind of orange she just ate in a nearby shopping mall.

After finding it, Gu Jia couldn't help but frown slightly when she saw the price of the target was twenty-five yuan each. This price was not cheap for an intern.

Gu Jia bought two boxes, a total of eight oranges, for two hundred yuan. Gu Jia carried these oranges to the Junyue Mansion community and decided to get to know Li Ke later. Some young girls now don't care if the boss has Wife.

……

Misia store.

Gu Jia passed by and she stopped to look at the men's suits in the window, thinking about buying one for Xu Huanshan.

In the store, when she saw Gu Jia stopping outside the store and carefully looking at the men's suit in the window, the sharp-eyed Wang Manni immediately walked out. She faced Gu Jia with a smile and said:

"Hello."

"Hello."

"You can go in and have a look."

"no need."

"You chose it for your husband, right?"

"Yes."

"It's difficult for you to visually inspect it like this. You can bring your husband to try it together next time."

"Okay."

Looking at Wang Manni, Gu Jia smiled very reservedly and said:

"It's most suitable for him to come. I live above your store. When he is free, I will bring him here to try it out."

"Okay."

"Thank you."

"Unkind."

After watching Gu Jia leave, Wang Manni's face was full of envy. She also wanted to live a sophisticated life like the other person and live in a high-end apartment like Junyue Mansion.

She often delivers clothes to guests who live in the Junyue Mansion Community. Many times, she can't even get in and can only stand at the door and give clothes to the guests.

Looking up at the building of Junyue Mansion, Wang Manni's eyes were full of envy and longing for the future. When she becomes Yuan Xudong's girlfriend, she should be able to live in a high-end apartment like Junyue Mansion. Already?

……

As night falls, the lights begin to turn on, and the nightlife in the Magic City is about to begin.

Misia store.

Looking at Wang Manni, who had changed into a pure white strapless dress and dressed up carefully, and was going to have dinner with Yuan Xudong at the Hilton Hotel, Nancy was a little worried and said:
"Manni, you look so ugly. Why don't you go to the hospital?"

"Need not."

Wang Manni forced a smile and said:
"I just have the old problem of back pain. I'll just take it easy for a while and it'll be fine."

"You've been in pain all day, you'd better go to the hospital and don't be careless."

"It's okay, I know everything in my mind."

Looking at Nancy who was worried about herself, Wang Manni smiled and said:

"Okay, I'm leaving. I've been waiting for so long, and I can't let things slip at this last critical moment."

"Then pay more attention to yourself, you're already sweating."

"gone."

"Bye-Bye."

"Bye." Under Nancy's worried eyes, Wang Manni endured the pain in her back and walked out of Misia's store. She hailed a taxi on the side of the road and rushed to the Hilton Hotel.

……

At 7:40 pm, in front of the Hilton Hotel.

Looking at Wang Manni, who was very pale and sweating profusely, Yuan Xudong said with concern:

"Manni, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's the same old problem, but my waist hurts a little."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Wang Manni forced a smile and said:

"I'm sorry, you didn't..."

Before Wang Manni could finish speaking, Yuan Xudong interrupted her and said:

"I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup."

"No, I'll just take it easy for a while. You..."

"obedient."

……

Hospital emergency room ward.

Looking at Wang Manni lying on the hospital bed, the doctor on duty asked:

"How long have you had this backache?"

Wang Manni replied weakly:
"one day."

"Do you have the habit of holding in your urine?"

"some."

"What you have now is acute nephritis, but fortunately it's mild."

"Doctor, how long will my illness last? Can I be discharged from the hospital tomorrow?"

"You can come out, but when you go back, make sure to rest more, drink more water, and don't have the bad habit of holding in your urine."

"Ok."

After the doctor and nurse on duty left, Wang Manni looked at Yuan Xudong who was accompanying her and said with a forced smile:
"Xudong, please go back first. I'm fine. I'm sorry today."

"It's okay. I have nothing to do when I go back. I might as well stay here with you. Besides, you are alone in the hospital for infusion, and no one is watching. What if it is empty?"

Seeing that Wang Manni wanted to say something else, Yuan Xudong said directly:

"If you hate me, then I will leave immediately. Do you hate me?"

"I……"

In fact, Wang Manni didn't want Yuan Xudong to leave now. She raised her eyes and looked at Yuan Xudong, and said in a soft voice:

"I'm afraid it will delay your work..."

"It won't be delayed, don't worry."

Yuan Xudong smiled. He sat down beside the hospital bed, gently held Wang Manni's right hand in his hand, and asked gently:

"Does your waist still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Wang Manni was a little shy. She looked up at Yuan Xudong and asked worriedly:
"Am I ugly now? Do I look sick?"

"It's not ugly, it's still beautiful."

Yuan Xudong reached out and touched Wang Manni's hair and face and said softly:

"Go to sleep quickly, I'm watching."

"Ah."

Wang Manni hummed softly, and she shrank into the quilt, leaving only her two eyes exposed to look at Yuan Xudong, looking as tender and shy as water.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but smile and asked jokingly:

"You look at me like this, do you like me?"

"Hmm~"

Wang Manni hummed shyly, but Yuan Xudong was stunned for a moment, thinking that he seemed to be very attracted to Wang Manni, making her no longer care about a woman's reserve.

"Go to bed quickly and don't look at me."

Yuan Xudong smiled and said, he reached out to cover Wang Manni's eyes. Wang Manni also closed her eyes obediently, but Yuan Xudong knew that she would definitely not be able to sleep. He smiled evilly and gently stroked her face, which made Wang Manni Manni couldn't help but hum, she was obviously in love with her. If it weren't for the fact that she was still sick, Yuan Xudong would have done it now and let her be gentle and sweet under his body, singing softly. , experience the joy of creating life.

Soon, Wang Manni's cell phone rang. Yuan Xudong glanced at the cell phone placed on the bedside table. The caller ID was his mother. He gave the phone to Wang Manni and said:
"Manni, your mother's phone number."

"Hmm~"

Wang Manni hummed shyly, took the phone and pressed the green answer button.

"mom."

"Nini, how was your meal with your boyfriend?"

"what?"

Yuan Xudong was next to him, and Wang Manni said shyly:

"It's not convenient for me to talk to you now. I'll hang up now. Bye."

"Nini, don't hang up yet..."

After hanging up the phone, looking at the blushing and shy Wang Manni, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Go to sleep."

"Hmm~"

……

Time passed, and in the second half of the night, Wang Manni's infusion ended. After half an hour of observation, Yuan Xudong took her out of the hospital.

"I'll take you home."

"Hmm~"

……

According to the address given by Wang Manni, Yuan Xudong sent her to her home.

Helping Wang Manni into the house, Yuan Xudong took a casual look. The house was on the second floor. It was not large, about forty or fifty square meters. There was also a balcony. Outside the balcony was a commercial area, and you could see the shopping plaza. .

The decoration in the room was very bourgeois. Yuan Xudong knew that Wang Manni wanted to live a very refined and decent life, but limited by her own financial conditions, she could only settle for the second best and create a pseudo-refined life for herself. Petty bourgeoisie life.

For this, the price she paid was to become a member of the Moonlight Clan, unable to save any money at all.

With their eyes facing each other, Yuan Xudong tentatively said:
"I'll stay and take care of you?"

"Need not……"

Wang Manni blushed and whispered shyly:
"You go back first, I, I'm ready."

"Ok."

Yuan Xudong pretended to be disappointed, looked at Wang Manni and said:

"Then I'm going back?"

"Hmm~"

Wang Manni hummed softly.

"Then I'm really leaving?"

"Hmm~"

……

Yuan Xudong left, and not long after, he returned and knocked on Wang Manni's door.

In the house, Wang Manni looked happy when she heard the knock on the door. She suppressed the smile on her face slightly and ran to open the door.

The door opened and Wang Manni asked reservedly as she looked at Yuan Xudong who had left and returned.

"Xudong, what can you do?"

"It's okay, I just want to tell you that I like you."

After saying that, Yuan Xudong hugged Wang Manni directly into the room and kissed her soft lips.

"Xudong, um..."

After the door closed, Wang Manni responded enthusiastically to Yuan Xudong. She had been single for many years, but how could she withstand Yuan Xudong's temptation now.

"Xudong, uh uh uh..."

……

The next morning, a ray of sunshine shone into the room through the balcony, and there was also a lively noise outside the house, including the voices of people, the sounds of vehicles, the sounds of buying and selling breakfast, etc., adding some fireworks of life to this magic city.

On Wang Manni's soft bed, she lay naked in Yuan Xudong's arms and looked up at him.

Last night, Yuan Xudong didn't really want her, he just hugged her and slept with her. After all, Wang Manni is still a sickly girl, but Yuan Xudong is a man who knows how to show mercy to women.
