C1590 Fortune Makes Fools of People
This hall has at least a few decades of history, and not only is it old and narrow, it even gives off a faint musty smell.
Furthermore, Liu Shumei lived in an attic. As they walked upstairs on the wooden stairs, they could hear the creaking sound. Everyone was even worried that if they were not careful, the stairs would collapse.
Everyone had lived in an old house before, but it was hard to imagine that Liu Shumei lived in such a dangerous house without any good points.
Liu Shumei did not seem to be surprised by the expressions of these old classmates and laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Are you surprised to see me living in this kind of broken place?"
No one said anything.
Liu Shumei had always cared about her reputation.
Back then, there were six people in the dormitory. Liu Shumei's family background was not that good. Liu Shumei was very stubborn, and for the sake of face, she found a so-called Songjiang native to move house.
During that period of time, Liu Shumei thought that she had caught a rich husband, so she spoke loudly in the dormitory. The food and clothing were very particular about the brand.
Even when Wang Qiuqiu chased her in the past, she even publicly insulted Wang Qiuqiu in the dormitory, saying that Wang Qiuqiu was a toad wanting to eat swan meat. Even if Wang Qiuqiu became ten times more outstanding, he still wouldn't be worthy of her.
But the final result was known.
That rich young man was just a good-for-nothing who couldn't be helped up and liked online gambling. In the end, not only did he lose the house and the car, he even owed a huge debt in the end.
Liu Shumei came back dejectedly.
Later on, she found out that although Liu Shumei was with that rich young man, she did not gain any advantage at all. Instead, she took out her living expenses to support rich young man, and even helped rich young man pay the gambling debts.
As for those big brands' cosmetics and bags, they were also second-hand goods that Liu Shumei had borrowed and worked for.
The only time she had taken advantage of rich young man, drove rich young man's car, and bumped into the Bentley that Wang Qiuqiu had driven with Zhang Muye. She almost went bankrupt to compensate for it.
In the end, because of Zhang Muye's existence, Liu Shumei was spared.
All these years, Liu Shumei's life had been very bad.
She insisted. Later, when she paid back rich young man's debt, she owed tens of thousands. Liu Shumei did not dare to tell anyone. She chose to quietly go out and work.
But because she worked too much, Liu Shumei ended up dropping out of the school because she failed too many subjects. She did not even get her graduation certificate.
She could not find a good job, so she could only work as a waiter in the restaurant.
These years, Liu Shumei could be said to be a mess...
When he arrived at Liu Shumei's house, he saw that there was no decent furniture. The only good furniture was a 40-inch television, but it was obviously second-hand.
A little girl was sitting at the desk and doing her homework.
Seeing Liu Shumei come back, the little girl shouted:
"Mom."
But after seeing Zhang Muye and the other strangers, she was afraid to hide behind Liu Shumei.
Everyone was stunned. Lin Jing said,
"This is your daughter?"
Liu Shumei nodded her head and said embarrassingly:
"Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't hold a banquet when I got married and got a marriage certificate, so I didn't call you guys."
Lin Jing fumbled around in her bag for a while and said helplessly:
"Why didn't you say so earlier? We could have given you some gifts."
Liu Shumei said,
"We met by chance. Why did I tell you earlier?"
Lin Jing also noticed that there was something wrong with her words, so she took off the necklace on her neck.
"Come, this is a gift from Auntie."
Liu Shumei said.
"Lin Jing, don't be like this. This necklace is very expensive."
Lin Jing said,
"Not expensive. It's only a few hundred dollars. I gave this to my niece. You don't have to care."
Actually, the necklace cost Lin Jing tens of thousands, but she did not say that she was protecting Liu Shumei's self-esteem.
The little girl held it admiringly and Liu Shumei did not say anything about her gratitude.
Xu Wei asked.
"Shu Mei, for the sake of the child, find a better place to live!"
Liu Shumei touched her daughter's hair and her eyes turned red. She did not say anything.
Xu Wei felt that she was asking nonsense. If she had money, how could she live in such a house?
Xu Rou said,
"Shumei, have you been working in the restaurant all these years? Where's your husband?"
Liu Shumei thought for a while and finally said:
"He is a senior executive of a company and is quite busy."
When she talked about her husband, her expression was a little uncomfortable.
Xu Rou wanted to say that no matter how poor her life was and how little she earned, she could not let the child down.
But in the end, she did not say it out loud.
Thus, everyone sat down at Liu Shumei's house for a while. Liu Shumei talked about herself all these years and said that she was working. Her husband was actually quite good too. He deliberately lived so badly just to save money and buy a house. But in a few years when he could afford the down payment, the life at home would be better.
After chatting for a long time, everyone finally wanted to take their leave. After all, Liu Shumei's house was too small. If they continued to sit, they would disturb her rest.
Liu Shumei sent everyone downstairs and suddenly met a man wearing a sweaty vest and holding a bottle of wine, shaking about.
Liu Shumei was stunned when she saw the man and her expression was a little ugly.
The man also noticed Liu Shumei and shouted, Liu Shumei!
"Where are you going? Don't tell me you are going to find a wild man? Quick, go back. "
It was actually Liu Shumei's husband?
Didn't they say the company's senior executives? Why was he so sloppy?
Liu Shumei said awkwardly,
"My classmates are here. I'll go downstairs and send them off."
The drunk man looked at Zhang Muye and the others and did not have any intention of greeting them. He waved his hand.
"Go upstairs. Fry some peanuts for me. I'll drink some more."
Liu Shumei awkwardly gave everyone an apologetic look and went upstairs with the drunk man.
She did not expect that after a while, she would suddenly hear the sound of "crackling" coming from upstairs. Then it was the sound of hitting and roaring.
"You b * tch, tell me, are you saying bad things about me outside again?"
"I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death."
Liu Shumei's scream was heard.
"I did not... Please don't hit me. ... I am praising you. I said you are a senior executive. I really didn't say anything bad about you... Wuwuwu..."
Finally, there was no sound from upstairs.
Everyone was sad. It turned out that Liu Shumei's husband was not a good person at all. What he said about buying a house and everything else was just to protect her last bit of dignity.
But at this moment, her dignity was also torn apart because of her husband's arrival.
Zhang Muye could not help but think that if Liu Shumei and Wang Qiuqiu had been together all those years ago, the two of them wouldn't have ended up like this, right?
Wang Qiuqiu wouldn't go to extremes. He wouldn't do anything for the sake of power.
Liu Shumei would not live so hard either. She could even live a life of luxury because of Wang Qiuqiu's status.
It could only be said that fate made fools of people.
However, the restaurant had already promoted Liu Shumei to the deputy general manager. He believed that Liu Shumei's future would not be too difficult.
It was already very late, so they said goodbye to each other and went back home.
Xu Wei and Tao Rann husband and wife walked all the way.
Xu Feiyang and Xu Rou naturally followed along as well.
Only Lin Jing and Zhang Muye were left.
Actually, this was also on purpose. Lin Jing looked at Zhang Muye, her pretty face flushed red as she said:
"My hands are not completely healed, so I didn't drive here. Do you have time to give me a ride?"
"If you don't have time, then forget it. I will take a taxi back myself."
Lin Jing looked at Zhang Muye with eager eyes. She said she was not free, but her eyes betrayed her.
Furthermore, Lin Jing was very smart. She deliberately raised her hand, which made Zhang Muye feel pity for her.
As expected, Zhang Muye said:
"Then I'll send you off."
Lin Jing was delighted in her heart. As she got into Zhang Muye's car, she said,
"You did it voluntarily. I didn't force you."
Zhang Muye went to the driver's seat and asked casually.
"How's your hand? Is it alright? "
Seeing Zhang Muye ask, Lin Jing shed tears.
"Oh! She didn't know what was going on. She was probably infected. It hurt every night. "
"Really?"
Zhang Muye fell into a trap. "Bring your hand over and let me take a look."
Lin Jing reached her hand in front of Zhang Muye. Zhang Muye took a closer look and frowned.
"Your hand looks very good!"
The last time Lin Jing was seriously injured, Zhang Muye even personally treated her. Considering that Lin Jing was a woman, Zhang Muye also used good medicine that would not leave a scar.
After such a long time, Lin Jing's hands were already as good as before.
Being grabbed by Zhang Muye's hand, Lin Jing's pretty face had always been red. She asked shyly:
"Is the skin of my hand good?"
Zhang Muye was stunned.
"I am checking your hand. Why did you suddenly ask about this?"
Lin Jing said,
"I just want to ask, can't I? Besides, it hurts inside. It seems to be the meridians or blood vessels. Anyway, it just hurts. "
As he spoke, he squeezed out two more tears. When Zhang Muye saw Lin Jing cry, he really thought that her hands were in pain.
"Why don't I massage you?"
"Oh!"
Lin Jing waited for Zhang Muye to say this and closed her eyes to enjoy it.
Zhang Muye's technique was very gentle and made Lin Jing feel comfortable all over. Lin Jing could not help but moan.
Zhang Muye could not help but tremble. Lin Jing also realized that she had lost her composure and her face turned red. She realized that Zhang Muye seemed to be even more embarrassed than her and laughed.
"Zhang Muye, are you also massaging your wife at home?"
Zhang Muye said.
"Yes, sometimes."
Lin Jing asked seriously again.
"Then, besides your wife, who else has enjoyed it? Has Chu Chu enjoyed it? Has Ying also enjoyed it? And other female confidantes. "
"You need to answer me honestly. You are not allowed to lie."0
Zhang Muye shook his head.
"No."
Lin Jing was delighted and suddenly said,
"Zhang Muye, what do you plan to do with me?"
Zhang Muye was stunned.
"What will I do to you?"
Lin Jing said.
"Men and women shouldn't touch each other. You held my hand. You kissed me before, so you have to be responsible for me," Lin Jing said.
Zhang Muye's face turned ugly.
"You asked me to hold your hand. And what did I kiss you about?"
Lin Jing rolled her eyes at Zhang Muye and said,
"You kissed me a lot. Just say that you sent me to the train station after I graduated from college. You kissed me before I got on the train. "
Zhang Muye also remembered. But it was Lin Jing who took the initiative to kiss Zhang Muye back then. How did it become his fault when it came to Lin Jing's mouth?
Zhang Muye could not stand it anymore.
"But you were the one who took the initiative back then."
Lin Jing pouted her red lips and said,
"I don't care. Anyway, you took advantage of me. I am a very traditional woman. I want you to take responsibility."
Zhang Muye was speechless.
"Yes, yes, yes. Since you are a traditional woman, you know that I am married. How can I be responsible for you?"
Lin Jing's face turned red and she said gently,
"I said that I am a traditional woman. I am willing to be young."
Zhang Muye felt helpless. He felt that he had heard this sentence before. He shrugged.
"So this is how you are a traditional woman?"
Lin Jing blinked and suddenly asked again.
"By the way, are you going to attend the business summit held in the capital with Tao Rann in a few days?"
Zhang Muye nodded. Lin Jing said,
"It just so happens that Oceanic High School also wants to participate. At that time, Ying will also be attending the event!"
