Capítulo 62: Chapter 62
Tingfeng's face frowned before he squinted his eyes, wanting to look closely at the car, but it didn't do any justice.
He leans a little and still can't comprehend if it's the latest car or the oldest generation that has almost the same design.
His staring contest with the car was cut short as their main dishes were delivered in front of them.
Tingfeng sighs before smiling at the waiter and nodding as he looks at Xiaohui, who looks bored and doesn't seem to be interested in everything around her.
"How could she even afford a car?"
Tingfeng voiced it out, clearly wanting Xiaohui to hear about it, and commented something to start a conversation.
Xiaohui looks at him before she shrugs her shoulder, cutting through the salmon and putting it in her mouth.
Tingfeng's attempt to start a conversation failed, and the two ate in silence, with Xiaohui finishing her food in no time.
All she wanted to do was eat as fast as she could and walk away as soon as she could.
She didn't want to wait for Tingfeng to do something stupid; all she wanted to do was drive away to go back into the house and continue her work.
The date finished after about half an hour with little conversation between the two.
Xiaohui clears her throat, grabbing the attention of Tingfeng and making the man excited that Xiaohui wanted to talk to him.
But his excitement was crushed when Xiaohui stood up from the table.
"I'll go now."
She said this before bowing down and walking away from the table. Tingfeng sighs before he stands up to follow Xiaohui out.
"Let me take you out."
He said this as he held Xiaohui by her waist. The girl jerked from her place, as she didn't expect Tingfeng to remove his arms from around her waist.
"You can just walk me out."
She said, walking ahead of him as he nodded, and the two walked out of the restaurant.
Tingfeng got a closer look at the car, and he sighed in relief before he snorted, causing Xiaohui to look at him in confusion.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing."
He said this and smiled widely at her. Xiaohui furrowed her eyebrows before she pointed at the car.
"What's the price of that car?"
"Just around 200,000 yuan; I think that's why Meixiu could afford it."
She probably used up all of the change in her piggy bank.
Tingfeng couldn't help but giggle at the thought, confusing the girl in front of him.
Xiaohui scoffs before walking towards the car, opening the door, and looking at it before hopping in and driving away, leaving Tingfeng, who looks crazy as he giggles.
-
Xiaohui walks inside the house and hears the dishes clashing against each other, indicating that Meixiu has just finished washing the plates and is just putting them back onto the dish racker.
She walks inside and clears her throat, grabbing the attention of Meixiu, who quickly smiles at her.
"You came back? Did you forget something?"
Meixiu thought that Xiaohui would go back to the company as soon as her date with Tingfeng ended, but I guess her intuition wasn't always right.
Xiaohui nodded before she leaned her body to the side, crossing her hands over her chest, making Meixiu briefly look at it, then towards Xiaohui's face.
"How much is the car?"
She asks, wanting to confirm if what she heard from Tingfeng is true. And also if she's not lying because Meixiu just told her yesterday that the car was worth 500,000 yuan!
"500,000 yuan?"
Meixiu said it was more like she was questioning the girl in front of her as her expression became awkward.
Xiaohui shakes her head, walking a little closer, and Meixiu steps back.
"Tell me the truth."
"I'm telling you the truth."
"Meixiu, Tingfeng told me that the car cost around 200,000 yuan, so how could you get discounts?"
"Ahh, well, that's a used car; that's why I managed to get it for around 100,000 yuan."
Xiaohui furrowed her eyebrows, and her hands went towards Meixiu's arms as she held the taller girl.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, when did I become uncertain about things?"
Meixiu asks, her face frowning in the process. The smaller girl in front nodded her head before removing her hands from her arms.
"Ok, I trust you, so I better get ready to go to work."
Xiaohui said, walking away towards their bedroom to change and go to work.
-
Xiaohui left as soon as she could because she was already late, and Meixiu was left alone in the house because Xiaowen left early in the morning.
Grandma Peng is resting in her room as she's going to be traveling later on with Meixiu's help.
Of course, the younger woman wouldn't want her grandmother to go alone, so she decided to call Weimin to fetch and drop off the older woman in her hometown.
It has been a few years since Grandma Peng thought of visiting her sisters back in their hometown.
She wants to know more about what's happening in their lives, but because of circumstances in the house, she wasn't able to do so.
Meixiu heard a ruckus in the kitchen area, where Grandma Peng's room was almost located, and she quickly stood up from the couch.
She went to the area and saw Grandma Peng carrying one bag.
"Grandma."
She said this and quickly went towards the older lady to help her carry the bag. Grandma Peng tries to grab it from Meixiu, but the girl shakes her head.
"It's heavy for you, so let me carry it."
"Meixiu, I can take care of that."
Grandma Peng said, but the girl is so persistent and didn't want the older lady to carry it.
She also gave reasons as to why she should be carrying it, and the older lady couldn't help but smile at her action.
It seems to me that even though the younger woman grew up with a gold spoon in her mouth, she was taught how to treat the elders and those around her.
Even though she doesn't like Xiaowen, her respect doesn't die down because she is her mother-in-law and the mother of her wife.
Grandma Peng went towards the couch with the guidance of Meixiu.
She sat down and sighed before looking at the younger girl who was fiddling with her phone.
"Xiaowen is so lucky to have you as her in-law."
Meixiu looks up from her phone and smiles at Grandma Peng. She shakes her head as she closes the device and leans back on the chair.
"Even though she has an attitude, you still didn't lose heart and forget to respect her."
"That's a job I should be doing, Grandma Peng."
Even though Meixiu doesn't look like she genuinely respects Xiaowen, she still didn't do anything to hurt the older woman.
It's not like she didn't want to, but she's itching to teach the older woman a lesson of her own, but that's for a different timeline.
It's also because she wants to straighten her attitude towards her daughter, whom she only sees as going to marry into a rich family because of her beauty.
But as Xiaohui wants, she only needs a good partner who'll help her in the house and probably the money as well.
And she only wants to live a simple life, so it's a win-win for her to marry Meixiu.
"I just hope Xiaowen will be able to respect and even warm up to you."
Grandma Peng said, her eyes disappearing as she smiled widely at Meixiu.
The younger girl smiles back before she hears a horn outside of the house, indicating that Weimin is already in front of the house.
