Restarting 16 Years Old, the Champion is Tiger and Tea

Chapter 184 The Ugly Snake Who Stays Calm

Wen Xin replaced the hot tea for Wen Chengzhi and comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. If there is anything, we can solve it together. We are not afraid of those monsters and demons."

Wen Chengzhi sipped the hot tea and his cold heart felt warmer.

"Dad, where's the cup for drinking milk?"

"Miao Xinhua brushed it off. I put my drink on the coffee table last night while watching TV. After a while, I felt very sleepy and went to bed without cleaning up. This morning, when it happened, I went to look for it and found that it had been brushed off."

Wen Chengzhi was also smart and the first thing he thought of was the glass of milk, but unfortunately he was a step too late.

"I asked her why she came back, and she said she had left her keys behind and came back to get them, and the gate was not closed. But I clearly remember that I went to close the gate."

"What is Miao Xinhua's attitude?"

"She cried and said I was holding her back. Then she said nothing and just cried. When she left, she washed her face and said she couldn't let anyone see her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to survive."

"She also told me not to tell your mother and to just say that she's taking a day off today and will go back to work tomorrow."

When Wen Chengzhi thought of that crying face and those sweet words, he felt so choked up that he couldn't breathe.

"...Brother Wen, I know you are a good person, you just fell into a daze and lost your mind. Brother Wen, I really need this job, can you please not tell anyone? Woohoo... It's so embarrassing..."

Damn it, I'm the one who's embarrassed. No matter how sleepy I am, I can't turn into an animal.

Wen Xin frowned when he heard this.

This also portrays himself as a pure victim with no desires or demands.

......

In the afternoon, Li Yan came back.

"Mom, don't be angry with my dad. There is something fishy about this. My dad should be the victim." Wen Xin looked at the furious Li Yan and hurriedly tried to persuade him.

She was particularly afraid that her parents would fight, because that would be a real internal and external threat.

Li Yan relaxed his frown, turned his head and looked at Wen Chengzhi gently: "I know, I'm not angry with your father."

Wen Chengzhi held his wife's hand and was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

Wen Xin looked at the loving old couple and his brain suddenly short-circuited.

It seems that the anger just now was not directed at Lao Wen.

It’s strange. Mom is so calm and doesn’t seem angry or disappointed with Dad at all. What does this mean?

......

The next day, before dawn, Wen Chengzhi boarded the train to Haicheng.

Wen Xin asked him to hide for a few days so that he could go to Haicheng to study the operation of BAC fast food in depth to see if there was anything worth learning from.

Wen Xin took two days of sick leave because she was on her period and had severe stomach pain during those two days.

Li Yan went to work, and Miao Xinhua patiently took care of Wen Xin who was lying on the bed.

"Xinxin, come here and drink this brown sugar ginger water. I just made it for you." The voice was gentle and melodious.

Miao Xinhua's hometown is in the south, and his current Beijing accent has a tinge of Wu dialect, with the ending sounding as if it has a hook.

"Sister Xinhua, your voice sounds so nice, and your figure is so beautiful. How could your ex-husband be willing to divorce you?"

Miao Xinhua was stunned for a moment.

In the two months since she came, Wen Xin hasn't talked much to her, and has only been polite to her briefly.

But then again, it's boring lying in bed alone today.

"Alas, men want to climb up the social ladder, so they like a girl from the city who has support from her family. Besides, I gave birth to a girl, and he always wanted a boy, but he couldn't afford to have more children because of his job."

Miao Xinhua sat on the chair, his face covered with a layer of powerless and sad expression.

Wen Xin watched and listened, and gave the performance a full score.

This reason seems reliable, but it is just her one-sided statement. Look at her smooth talk, the real reason may not be what it is.

"Xinxin, when will your dad come back from his business trip? I'll buy some beef in advance and cook it. Last time he said he wanted to eat braised beef in soy sauce."

Wen Xin raised his eyes and looked at the pair of thin eyes, without any flicker or wandering in them.

Wow, this psychological quality is really good.

It's this face that doesn't match this body shape. Small eyes, flat nose, and some freckles on the cheekbones.

At first, Li Yan and Wen Xin had never been wary of her, also because of this appearance. No matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like someone who is into sex.

"I don't know yet. You can ask my mother when the time comes."

Wen Xin finished drinking the brown sugar ginger water, handed the bowl to Miao Xinhua, and watched her walk out with her slender waist twisted.

He is really patient and is like an ugly snake that never shows any emotion.

Wen Xin slept for another nap, got up and went to his parents' bedroom to get a book. He saw several big unity banknotes and small change in the drawer were still there, untouched.

This was a test that Li Yan had done a long time ago, so she always thought Miao Xinhua was pretty good and was more relaxed about these small details.

Wen Xin packed up the money, took it with the books and walked out the door.

Miao Xinhua's eyes flickered for a moment and he said, "Xinxin, remember to tell your parents when you get the money, so there won't be any misunderstandings."

Wen Xin smiled and nodded: "Okay Sister Miao, I will tell you, you really cherish your reputation."

Miao Xinhua smiled gently: "This is what we should do in this line of work."

Wow, what a high level of professional ethics.

......

Wen Chengzhi came back from Haicheng at the weekend, and the end of the month had arrived.

While Wen Chengzhi was out inspecting the mall, Li Yan called Miao Xinhua over.

"Xiao Miao, your elder brother Wen will be stationed abroad frequently during this period, and I have to visit the old lady more often. There are usually not many people at home, so I won't be here for now."

She pulled out an envelope and handed it over.

"This is your salary for this month. We also gave you one month's salary as compensation for your loss. After all, we said this a little suddenly."

Miao Xinhua was stunned.

This was indeed a bit sudden. Wen Chengzhi had come back these few days, and everything was calm. She had approached him quietly, and she felt less repulsive than before, and she was even happy.

All men are the same. As long as they touch my body, they will come to me like leeches. Although this one hasn't come to me yet, it's only a matter of time.

"Sister Li, is there something I did wrong?" Miao Xinhua was about to cry, but his eyes were carefully observing Li Yan.

It was so calm, Brother Wen should not have been exposed. Could it be that I had let myself slip and she had discovered something?

Wen Xin pretended not to hear and leaned on the sofa, concentrating on watching TV without even glancing over here.

Li Yan didn't want to continue the fight, so he simply said a few words to comfort her and got up to go to his grandmother's house.

Miao Xinhua entered the west room of the back building, which was a separate nanny's room where she could rest during breaks from work.

She was packing up some of her odds and ends, feeling very worried.

The door rang and Wen Xin walked in. He pulled a chair by the door and sat quietly watching her pack her things.

Miao Xinhua was in a bad mood. He glanced at her with a mocking look on his face: "Why, Xinxin, are you afraid that I'll take too much?"

Wen Xin curled his lips: "Oh, I'm not afraid that you take more, I'm afraid that you will add something more. Like the glass of milk that day."

Miao Xinhua paused, then suddenly turned his head to look at Wen Xin, his eyes full of astonishment.
