Once Upon A One Night Stand

Chapter 213

Hearing that, the auntie stopped smiling and spread out her hands speechlessly. "Lihua, why did you

say that? How could I be the only one to blame? Shu Tian was not going well this year. It was none of

me and Minglei's business. Why did you vent your anger on us?"

"You know who vented her anger." Being unbearably indignant, Ye Lihua muttered, "Someone just

disdains that others are better than her!"

"You!" Auntie was speechless with anger.

The two old people at home noticed that the atmosphere here was unfavorable. They looked over

discontentedly, "What's wrong? Why are you arguing during the new year?"

"Dad, mom, I didn't say anything just now. But my sister-in-law seriously said that I was mocking Shu

Tian. It was true that Tian was unhappy this year. I just casually said it."

"Did you say it casually?" Ye Lihua asked straightforward. "You mentioned "divorced" again and again.

Was it upset for the child?"

"It is the truth. Why can't I mention it? Besides, I have no malice!" Auntie glanced at the two old people

and deliberately provoked, "You just see that Minglei came back with a girlfriend. In contrast, you feel

uncomfortable. Yes, Shu Tian was in the limelight at home before, but you can't let others down!"

"When did I say that?" Ye Lihua was furious, "You're talking nonsense!"

However, the auntie did not respond directly and still mentioned Shu Minglei, "We are a family. It's so

good to be in harmony. Minglei came back for the new year. You really..."

At that point, the auntie paused as if she was speechless.

Ye Lihua was bordered on crying and didn't expect that the auntie could say so many nasty words.

The two old people were most partial to Shu Minglei and comforted the auntie, "Lihua, don't be too

angry. During the new year. It's better to be kind!"

It was as if Ye Lihua was looking for trouble on purpose.

Shu Tian didn't want to get involved in the affairs of adults. But when hearing these words, she walked

from her seat to the auntie and brought back the two boxes of top-grade cordyceps and bird's nest, "I

wanted to give the gifts to you. Since you don't appreciate it, forget it. Grandpa is right. Peace breeds

wealth during the new year. Auntie, we don't want to compete with each other. I'm happier than anyone

else that my brother lives a good life. As an elder, my mother won't think much about it. You can rest © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

assured. As for me..."

She smiled at Faang Yue with a polite and cold smile, "You don't need to worry about me. Even if I get

divorced, I am able to buy the cordyceps valued tens of thousands of dollars."

Then, everyone was silent in the private room. In fact, she knew that they had more or less learned

about her from the news. In the past, she married Tang Zechen, not for money. They thought she lived

a better life with numerous wealth. She had never felt anything.

Now that she was divorced, there must be someone gossiping about her. She had never been a high-

profile person, but she could not help venting her anger at that moment.

"So what if I get divorced? Wasn't I better than you?"

Looking at Faang Yue's terrible expression, Shu Tian didn't care what she was thinking and poured a

glass of water and handed it to Ye Lihua to calm her down.

Everyone felt unhappy that the dinner party had a bad ending and finished the dinner quickly. Although

the two old people did not say anything on the surface, they must be blamed for Shu Tian.

Shu Changlei had drunk a lot and his face blushed. When they left the restaurant, Shu Tian thought he

would blame her, but he didn't say anything and just told her to drive back home.

A small detail made her feel even sadder. Only then did she realize that her divorce had put a lot of

pressure on her parents.

When they got home, Shu Changlei washed up and then went to sleep. Ye Lihua sat in the living room

watching TV and said that she would wait for the last skit of the new year. Shu Tian was boiling water in

the kitchen, but through the crack of the door, she saw Ye Lihua wiping her tears.

It was a funny show, but her mother was crying.

Shu Tian took a deep breath and tried to hold back tears. Beside her was a steaming kettle. Outside

the window, the sky was filled with fireworks from time to time, but Shu Tian didn't feel happy.

The new year was more depressing than ever.

Just as she was deep in thought, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang. Who it would be at this time?

Having calmed down, she saw that it was from Li Han and quickly answered, "Hello?"

"Happy new year." He said in a deep and warm voice.

It was a simple sentence, but at that moment, she wanted to cry. Thinking of what happened tonight,

she felt grieved and tried to answer calmly. "You too, happy new year."

However, he noticed her emotions and the nasal sound.

He frowned and asked seriously, "Are you crying?"

She didn't expect him to notice her emotions so quickly, "No, I just yawned..."

Hearing that, he didn't reply. She could only vaguely hear a rustling sound. After being silent for a long

time, she could not hear a response and thought he had disconnected, "Hello?"

"I'm here." he said, "I just transferred you the money on the phone."

Money?

She was confused, "Wait a minute..."

She took the phone off her ear and clicked into PayPal. It had not been long since they had added the

contact. At that moment, she noticed the money he sent just now.

More than sixty thousand!

She was shocked and had never received the kind of new year gift.

Then, she put the phone back in her ear, "Why are you transferring so much?"

She asked him for a new yeat gift just for luck and she could get a small amount of money, but now she

didn't even dare to accept a large amount of money.

It was not a small sum for her.

"So much?" He was much calmer. "Only once a year. Not much. Accept it."

At that time, Zhang Bikun told him that it was a good new year gift.

For the first time in her life, she felt like she was being kept by a rich man. He sent her more than

60000 dollars. How much money did he have?

Chucking, she wanted to refuse. Before she could say anything, he said directly, "If you didn't accept it,

I will try other ways later."

"Well, you win."

After hesitantly clicking on the transfer message, she received the money and then said respectfully,

"Thank you, boss."

They chatted for a while. Just as she felt better and was about to hang up to pour the water into the

thermos, a soft click came from the microphone. Then, he said in a magnetic and steady voice, "Come

down. I'm downstairs at your house."
