Everyone started cheering when they heard this. They wanted Wen Rugui to kiss Tong Xuelu.
Wen Rugui's ears turned red. He held Tong Xuelu's hand and kissed the back of her hand gently. His action was gentle and gentlemanly.
Everyone cheered even louder.
Zhou Yan even whistled. He looked like a hothead and didn't look like a father at all.
Jiang Baihui sat opposite them. From her angle, she could see the two of them looking at each other affectionately.
She should have been the center of attention. She should have been the wife of the vice president. She should have been the one being complimented by everyone. But now, it was Tong Xuelu's.
No one mentioned Liang Tianyi because he was just an ordinary researcher.
Jiang Baihui felt like ants were gnawing on her heart. She felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to smash something.
Everyone was worried that Jiang Baihui would continue to behave like this. Fortunately, she didn't say anything inappropriate.
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, she was pregnant. If she said something like that, no one could hit or scold her.
Jiang Danhong saw that she was pregnant and took the initiative to take care of her.
That night, everyone had a lot of fun.
After dinner, everyone played games again. Zhou Yan and Pu Jianyi even asked them to drink cross-cupped wine.
In the end, many people were drunk, including Tong Xuelu.
After two cups of wine, her eyes became blurry. Her cheeks were pink as if she had put on rouge.
Suddenly, she frowned and pursed her lips.
Wen Rugui caught her expression and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? "
When she was forced to drink, he wanted to drink on her behalf. But at that time, he was caught by Huang Qimin and couldn't go over at all.
These guys said that they didn't make trouble for them at the wedding. Today, they wanted to make trouble twice as much.
Tong Xuelu shook her head. "I'm fine. I'm going to the bathroom."
As he spoke, he stood up and his body swayed a little.
Wen Rugui held her slender waist. "Do you want me to go with you?"
Tong Xuelu shook her head again. The more she shook her head, the more hse felt that the things in front of her were shaking. "No need, no need. I can go alone."
If the two of them disappeared together, those guys would definitely kick up a fuss.
Just then, Little Yanyan came over with his short legs and complained, "Daddy, Little Sister is being naughty. She secretly drank a lot of drinks!"
Wen Rugui frowned. "Your great-grandfather didn't stop her?"
Little Yanyan pouted. "Great Grandpa has no principles. Once Little Sister acted coquettishly, Great Grandpa let her drink it."
He wanted to drink too, but he had made a promise with his mother not to eat too many snacks and drinks. He was a good boy, so he only drank a little today.
Tong Xuelu nudged him. "Hurry up and go with Yanyan. Don't let Ranran drink too much. Otherwise, she will definitely wet the bed tonight."
Moreover, it was not good for children to drink too much.
Wen Rugui glanced at her, then took Little Yanyan's hand and walked away.
Wearing high heels, Tong Xue Lv wobbled towards the washroom outside.
It was not a long walk, but it felt very long today. She took twice as long as usual to walk to the washroom.
When she reached the washroom door, she almost bumped into Zhou Yan, who was coming out of the washroom.
Zhou Yan was even more drunk than her. His eyes were almost squinted, and his face was as red as Guan Yu. It was really difficult for him to walk to the washroom alone without falling into the pit.
Zhou Yan leaned over and looked at her face for a while before he recognized her. "Comrade Tong, it's you. Why are you here?"
Tong Xuelu saw his head and body shaking and felt even dizzier. "I need to go to the washroom."
Zhou Yan burped and suddenly laughed. "You're in the wrong place. The female washroom is opposite!"
Tong Xuelu was stunned. She turned around to look at the sign in front of the washroom door. Suddenly, her high heels twisted.
She fell to the ground and felt that the world was spinning in front of her.
Zhou Yan saw that she had fallen, but not only did he not help her, he even laughed. "Comrade Tong, you're not a child. You can't pee on the spot."
Tong Xuelu's mouth twitched. She supported herself on the ground and got up. Then, she walked towards the washroom opposite with stars in her eyes.
Zhou Yan had not left yet. He nagged, "That's right. If you want to pee, you should go to the washroom. Fortunately, you met me. Otherwise, you would have gone to the wrong washroom."
Tong Xue Lv ignored him and hurriedly ran in.
The Green Tea Restaurant's washroom was not the best in the country, but it was famous in Beijing. It was even more famous than other restaurants.
The floor of the washroom was also paved with marble. It was so clean and bright that it could almost be used as a mirror. When she walked in, she did not smell a single odor. Instead, she smelled sandalwood from a small box at the side.
There was no one in the washroom. Tong Xuelu pushed open the first door and quickly went in to relieve herself.
After a while, just as she stood up and was about to go out, she suddenly heard two men's voices outside.
"The Green Tea Restaurant's washroom really lives up to its reputation. There's no stench at all."
"That's right. I'm willing to come no matter how expensive this washroom is."
Tong Xuelu, who was in the cubicle, was confused.
This was the female washroom. Why were there two men's voices?
She thought that she might be hallucinating. She shook her head. The next moment, she heard the sound of a man peeing outside.
The sound was very clear. It reminded Tong Xuelu that she was not hallucinating.
"…"
Did she go to the wrong washroom?
Zhou Yan, that bastard!
She originally wanted to go to the opposite washroom. It was that guy who told her that she went to the wrong washroom. That's why she came here!
He went to the female washroom himself, but he still wanted to trick her. She really wanted to beat him up!
Finally, the two men left. Tong Xuelu heaved a sigh of relief. She was about to stealthily push open the door and go out.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside. From the sound of it, there were quite a few people.
Tong Xuelu, "…"
Sure enough, a group of men walked into the washroom with their arms around each other's shoulders. One or two of them were drunk and kept knocking on Tong Xuelu's cubicle.
"Comrade, are you done? You've been in there for a long time. Are you constipated? "
"Hahaha, I think you fell into a sh * t pit."
Tong Xuelu, "…"
Dog! Bi! Zhou! Yan!!!
Ever since she transmigrated, Tong Xuelu had never been so embarrassed. This was all thanks to Zhou Yan.
The worst was yet to come.
Although the washroom was well-equipped, with so many people coming in, the smell suddenly became very touching.
Tong Xuelu pinched her nose and almost cried.
Three minutes passed.
Five minutes passed.
The man who knocked on the door seemed to be constipated. He had been squatting in the cubicle for a long time. Not only did he produce a strange smell, but he also made strange sounds from time to time.
It was very frustrating.
Tong Xuelu really wanted to rush out without a care. However, as the owner of the Green Tea Restaurant, if she really rushed out like this, her reputation would be linked to the toilet in the future.
Wen Rugui convinced his daughter and promised to tell her a bedtime story when she went back tonight. Only then did Little Ranran give up on drinking.
After dealing with his daughter, he turned back and scanned the room. However, he did not find Tong Xuelu.
He was about to go out and look for her when he almost bumped into Jiang Baihui, who was standing behind him for some reason.
He frowned. "Comrade Jiang, are you okay?"
Jiang Baihui smiled and shook her head. "I'm fine. Professor Wen, are you looking for Xuelv? I saw that she went to the washroom for a long time and hasn't come back yet. I'm very worried about her and am about to go out and look for her. Professor Wen, are you also going out to look for her? Why don't we go together? "
Wen Rugui's gaze swept past her smile. "No need. I can go alone. You're a guest and a pregnant woman. You can rest here."
After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Jiang Baihui's reply and walked out of the room.
Jiang Baihui looked at his tall and straight back and instinctively bit her lower lip.
This scene happened to fall into Fang Jingyuan's eyes, and she frowned.
Xiao Chengping hugged his sleeping daughter and looked in her direction. He asked in confusion, "What are you looking at?"
Fang Jingyuan shook her head. "Nothing. Little Tangtang is asleep. When Xuelu comes back, we'll let her know and go back.
Xiao Chengping nodded and picked up the shoe that his daughter had dropped and put it in his pocket.
His movements were very natural. It was obvious that he had done this often.
Wen Rugui went straight to the washroom. However, before he reached the washroom, he saw Zhou Yan sitting in the corridor. His face was red and his eyes were closed. He did not know if he was asleep or unconscious.
Wen Rugui was shocked. He walked over and pushed him. "Zhou Yan, are you okay?"
Zhou Yan only woke up after being pushed a few times. When he saw Wen Rugui, he immediately said aggrievedly, "Ru Gui, why are women so fierce nowadays? I wanted to go to the washroom, but she didn't let me in. She even slapped me and called me a hooligan!"
Wen Rugui guessed that he must have gone to the wrong washroom. However, he was only concerned about his wife's whereabouts. "Have you seen Xuelu?"
Zhou Yan scratched his nose and pointed in the direction of the men's washroom. "Comrade Tong went inside. She was going to use the men's washroom. Fortunately, I reminded her!"
Wen Rugui was speechless.
He called a waiter and asked him to help Zhou Yan back to the private room. Then, he went back to the washroom.
Just as he was about to enter the bathroom, a drunken man staggered out from inside.
Seeing that Wen Rugui was about to go in, he kindly reminded him. "Comrade, don't knock on the first door. The comrade inside is constipated. he hasn't come out after half an hour. He's in a worse state than me."
Wen Rugui was speechless.
Tong Xuelu, whose legs were numb from squatting, was speechless.
Tong Xuelu decided not to tolerate it anymore. If she was embarrassed, then so be it. When she rushed out later, she would cover her face. It should be able to protect her face.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Tong Xuelu's delicate body trembled. Comrade, I already told you that he's constipated. Why are you still knocking on the door?
Tong Xuelu decided not to say anything.
The air was silent for a few seconds. Then, a gentle and deep voice came from outside. "It's me."
When she heard this voice, Tong Xuelu was so excited that she almost burst into tears. "Ru Gui, is that you?"
Wen Rugui: "It's me. Come out quickly. There's no one outside now."
Tong Xuelu hurriedly opened the door and limped out.
Wen Rugui's gaze fell on her high heels. He frowned and asked, "Did you sprain your ankle?"
Tong Xuelu blushed and shook her head. "No, I squatted for too long. My legs are numb."
Wen Rugui was speechless.
In the next moment, before Tong Xuelu could speak again, he reached out and carried her in his arms.
Tong Xuelu was shocked. She let out a soft cry and instinctively hugged his neck. Then, she buried her face in his chest.
She was too ashamed to face anyone.
Perhaps Wen Rugui had asked people to clear the area in advance, or perhaps they were lucky. They didn't meet anyone on the way out of the restroom.
Wen Rugui didn't carry her to the private room. Instead, he went directly to her office in the restaurant.
After entering the office, he put her down on the sofa. Then, he reached out and pinched her leg. "Is it still numb?"
Tong Xuelu cried out softly. "It's so numb. Don't pinch it."
However, Wen Rugui didn't listen to her. His slender fingers rubbed and pinched her leg. From time to time, he even patted it a few times.
Being pinched and pinched like this was an indescribable feeling.
Fortunately, after a while, her leg finally stopped feeling numb.
After releasing her, Wen Rugui pinched her rouged face. "Why did you go to the men's restroom?"
At the mention of this, Tong Xuelu became angry. "It's all that bastard Zhou Yan's fault!"
As she spoke, she rolled her eyes and leaned over to kiss his thin lips. She whispered, "Only you and I know this. What do you think, husband?"
Her scent wafted to the tip of his nose. It was fragrant and charming.
Wen Rugui lowered his head to look at her. His eyes were deep and bottomless. "Madam, are you trying to bribe your husband?"
Tong Xuelu blinked at him and threw a flirtatious look. "Then, husband, do you accept bribes?"
"Yes, but I think the bribe is a little light. What do you think, Madam?"
When he said this, his expression was serious. He didn't look like a professor who wanted to take a mile after taking an inch.
If other people heard this, they would be so shocked that their jaws would drop to the ground.
Tong Xuelu's gaze swept over his slightly red ears. Her red lips curled up, and she leaned over to whisper a few words in his ear.
Then, she saw Wen Rugui's ears turn even redder. She couldn't help burying her head into his neck and laughing softly.
Wen Rugui wrapped his arms around her slender waist and said in a low and hoarse voice, "It's a promise. I promise to keep it a secret for you."
Looking at him like this, Tong Xuelu couldn't help but laugh again.
Because there were still a lot of people waiting for them in the private room, they didn't dare to stay in the office for too long.
Tong Xuelu washed her face and felt a lot more awake. Then, the two of them returned to the private room together.
As soon as the door opened, Tong Xuelu subconsciously looked at the seat where Jiang Baihui was sitting. Then, their eyes met in the air.
Fang Jingyuan turned around. When she saw that it was her, she immediately said, "You're finally back. If you didn't come back, I would have called the police. It's getting late. We have to go back."
Tong Xuelu looked away and said guiltily, "I sprained my ankle. You should go back quickly. Children should be asleep at this time."
Fang Jingyuan didn't say anything else. She and Xiao Chengping carried their daughter back.
After Fang Jingyuan left, the others also said their goodbyes one after another.
Only the Wen and Xiao families and Jiang Baihui were left behind.
Tong Xuelu walked in front of her. "It's getting late. We'll be worried if you go back alone. Wait a moment. I'll ask Manager Jiang to send you back."
Jiang Baihui glanced at Wen Rugui from the corner of her eye. "Is my cousin very busy? If he is, I can go back alone."
Her house was in the same direction as Tong Xuelu's. In fact, they could have sent her back or asked Wen Rugui to send her back. Why did they need to ask Jiang Junli to go?
Tong Xuelu's red lips curved. "No matter how busy he is, he's not as important as you. We can only rest assured if Manager Jiang sends you back."
As she spoke, she turned around and asked Wen Rugui to call Jiang Junli over.
Although Jiang Baihui felt a little uncomfortable, she had no reason to refuse. In the end, Jiang Junli sent her back.
After everyone had left, Tong Xuelu and her family went back.
Little Ranran had made a pinky promise with her father and wanted him to tell her a bedtime story. However, before they reached home, she was already snoring in her sleep.
Her little face was red from sleeping. Her long and dense eyelashes drooped down like two small fans and she snored like a little kitten. Her appearance was so adorable that it made one's heart tremble.
Little Yanyan had fallen asleep as well. He must have dreamt of something delicious. His red lips were sucking, and Tong Xuelu couldn't help but pinch his little nose when she saw this.
The little boy was disturbed from his beautiful dream. He frowned but didn't wake up. He snuggled against her and soon fell asleep again.
Old Master Wen was overjoyed today and drank half a glass of wine. Once they reached home, Uncle Zong helped him back to his room to sleep.
Sister-in-law Chen took care of the twins until they were three years old. Later, her son came to Shang Jing to rent an apartment and she didn't continue to live with the Wen family.
During the day, she would come over to clean the house and wash the clothes. Therefore, the twins had been sleeping with the couple since this year.
Their room was very big. Two small beds were placed in the small room next to it for the siblings to sleep in.
Tong Xuelu came in after taking a shower. Wen Rugui was leaning against the bed and reading a book.
Seeing her come in, he closed the book and placed it on the bedside table. "Madam, there's no time like the present. I think it's better to fulfill your promise now."
When they were in the office, Tong Xuelu wanted to bribe him not to say anything. She said that she wanted to try out the erotic images today.
She didn't expect Professor Wen to be so impatient. It made her want to laugh.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Wen Rugui got down from the bed and carried her up. "Madam, are you trying to deny it?"
Tong Xuelu looked up and bit his chin. "Professor Wen, you've changed!"
Since they got married, she would occasionally role-play. Under her guidance, although Professor Wen was still shy, he was no longer the same as before.
Wen Rugui was tickled by her bite. His heart was also tickled. He carried her to the bed and put her down. He leaned down …
At this moment, a cry suddenly came from the small room.
Tong Xuelu shuddered and pushed him away. She ran over and saw Little Yanyan sitting on her bed. His face was red from crying.
Her heart ached. "Yanyan, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare? "
Little Yanyan saw his mother coming over and buried his head in the blanket, revealing his chubby little butt.
Tong Xuelu took a closer look and saw a large wet patch on his butt. She looked down and saw a map drawn on the bedsheet.
Good lord!
Did he wet the bed and then cry because he felt too ashamed to face anyone?
Tong Xuelu walked over and patted her son's chubby butt. "Yanyan, tell Mommy, did you secretly drink the drink?"
The twins didn't need diapers at night since they were two years old. They rarely woke up at night, unless they drank too much water before going to bed.
Little Yanyan buried his face in the blanket. His small body trembled and his muffled voice came from under the blanket. "Mommy, Yanyan was wrong. Yanyan shouldn't have drunk the drink."
It turned out that after Little Yanyan went to complain, Little Ranran was convinced by her father and no one drank the rest of the drink.
Little Yanyan felt that it was a pity, so he drank half of the drink when the adults weren't paying attention.
Therefore, he got a lot of water when he was sleeping.
Tong Xuelu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She asked Wen Rugui to bring over a clean pair of pants and a blanket. After changing the little guy, she promised him that she wouldn't tell anyone about it.
However, as a punishment, Tong Xuelu deducted his snacks for the next half a month.
Little Yanyan's heart ached so much that his lips pouted. He looked as if he had been wronged.
When Little Yanyan fell asleep again, the two of them were sweating from the heat. Tong Xuelu missed the days when there was air conditioning.
She went to take a shower again. When she came back, it was already late at night and she was no longer as excited as before.
After turning off the lights, Wen Rugui hugged her slender waist and thought to himself that he must separate the two of them later.
A three-year-old child was already a big child and could sleep alone.
It is so happily decided:)
**
Wen Rugui had always wanted to use his research results to earn a car for his family.
However, in this era, many scientists in the country paid more attention to the development of practical and military weapons.
Therefore, although the country's development in military weapons was very fast, it was very difficult to gain recognition from abroad. It was even more difficult to win the Nobel Prize.
Wen Rugui's dream of earning a car through winning the Nobel Prize in Physics was destined to fail. However, the country recognized his efforts and achievements. After he was promoted to the Deputy Director, the base arranged a private car for him.
It made it more convenient for him to go in and out. Unfortunately, there was still a difference between a private car and a own car.
However, Tong Xuelu was very proud of him to have such achievements at such a young age.
After Wen Rugui returned to the base, she threw herself into work again.
During the Autumn Fair, she personally brought her staff to Guangdong Province to participate in the fair and received many orders at the fair.
The scale of the medicinal wine business grew as a result.
During this period, Jiang Baihui looked for her a few times, but she said that she was busy.
Jiang Baihui's personality had changed. Although they used to have a good relationship, it was no longer suitable for them to be friends.
She planned to treat her coldly and gradually distance herself from her.
After all, there was not much conflict between them. Wen Rugui and Liang Tianyi were still colleagues, so there was no need for her to fall out with her.
Jiang Baihui was rejected a few times, but she seemed to have realized her coldness and did not take the initiative to approach her again.
The orders from the Autumn Fair and the orders from Hong Kong's Boss Zhang made Tong Xuelu a lot of money.
When it snowed for the first time in Beijing, Tong Xuelu decided to buy a house.
With the reform and opening up, house prices were increasing day by day. The increase was not much now, but after the 1990s, the real estate industry would develop rapidly.
By then, there would be all kinds of demolition compensation. By the year 2000, houses would be even more expensive.
In short, buying a house when one had money was more useful than any investment.
Because Wen Rugui did not have time to come back, Tong Xuelu invited Fang Jingyuan to go with her to look at houses.
Starting from this year, commercial houses appeared in Beijing and Shenzhen. Many people were curious about commercial houses.
Most people chose to wait and see. Of course, some people could not afford them.
Tong Xuelu planned to buy two commercial houses this time. She could not afford the courtyard house. Few people were willing to sell other houses, so she planned to buy the commercial houses first.
After two years, when everyone accepted the commercial houses, she would sell them and buy houses that would be demolished in the future.
Fang Jingyuan walked around with her and felt a little tempted.
The design of the commercial houses was different from the bungalows. Every room was bright, and the houses were orderly. More importantly, there were security guards outside. It would be much safer for children to play in the neighborhood.
However, she also had concerns. "Xuelu, are you sure you want to buy two? You are not going to live there. Why buy so many? "
The two of them walked in the neighborhood. The walkways were cleaned and paved with cement. Even if it rained, they would not step on the mud.
Tong Xuelu said, "This is called investment. You should have noticed that house prices have been rising for the past two years, right? As the people have more money, house prices will become more expensive in the future. If you don't want to live in it now, you can sell it in the future. You can make a lot of money. "
Fang Jingyuan was tempted. "But what if the house prices don't rise? It is very safe for us to live in the military compound now. If I say that I want to buy a commercial house, my mother-in-law will definitely have a lot of reasons. "
Tong Xuelu said, "The money is in your hands. If you want to buy it, then buy it. Why do you need your mother-in-law's permission? If you don't want to buy a commercial house, you can buy a shop. You won't lose money anyway! "
In addition to selling two commercial houses, Tong Xuelu also bought two shops and prepared to rent them out.
Fang Jingyuan was shocked and moved by her "spending money like dirt". In the end, she gritted her teeth and decided to buy a shop.
The staff in the sales office rarely met such generous customers. They were so happy that their mouths almost reached their ears. They served the two of them as if they were gods.
It was already noon when they came out of the sales office. Tong Xuelu was about to find a place to sit down and eat when she saw Fang Jingyuan looking straight ahead.
She followed his gaze and saw Jiang Baihui getting out of a red Santana car. Her belly was as big as a watermelon. It looked like she was about to give birth.
As she got out of the car, a young woman also got out of the car.
The woman was wearing a brown long coat and black boots. Her hair was wavy and looked very fashionable.
When she turned around, Tong Xuelu raised his eyebrows slightly.
It was Qian Caixin.
Fang Jingyuan also recognized that the person was Qian Caixin. He frowned. "Why is Baihui with that woman?"
As Tong Xuelu's best friend, Fang Jingyuan naturally knew what Qian Caixin had done to her. Therefore, she didn't like Qian Caixin very much.
Tong Xuelu didn't say anything. His eyes fell on Jiang Baihui again.
She hadn't seen Jiang Baihui for several months since the last time.
This time, other than her belly being much bigger, Jiang Baihui's dressing seemed to be different from before.
When she first returned to China, Jiang Baihui's dressing was very fashionable. However, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. She didn't wear clothes that exposed her navel anymore.
Later, when her belly got bigger, her dressing became more casual. At this time, Jiang Baihui was dressed very elegantly.
She was wearing a mink coat, a wool scarf around her neck, mink gloves on her hands, and low-heeled leather boots on her feet. This outfit cost at least a few hundred yuan, if not a thousand yuan.
Although the salary of a researcher wasn't low, with this kind of consumption, it wouldn't last long.
Just as they looked over, Jiang Baihui also looked over.
She was stunned for a moment. Then, a bright smile appeared on her face. "Xuelu, Jingyuan, why are you here?"
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "We came here to shop for clothes. It's just that we didn't find anything suitable."
Moreover, Jiang Baihui didn't do anything to hurt her, other than saying a few words of jealousy.
However, she didn't plan to tell them that she bought a house and a shop. Don't show off your wealth. This was applicable in any era.
Fang Jingyuan glanced at Tong Xuelu and nodded. "Yes, it's almost Chinese New Year. We came here to buy new clothes."
Jiang Baihui walked over while holding her belly. "With your figures and appearances, even a piece of cloth would look good on you."
Wow!
The way Jiang Baihui praised everyone reminded Tong Xuelu of her university days.
Qian Caixin walked over with Jiang Baihui.
Qian Caixin walked in front of them and looked at Tong Xuelu. "Tong Xuelu, long time no see. You're still very beautiful."
Tong Xuelu said calmly, "Thank you. You're also very eye-catching."
"Tong Xuelu, I've always wanted to apologize to you. I was too narrow-minded when I was in university. I was jealous of you because you were so outstanding. I couldn't help but do some things that I'm too ashamed to say. Regardless of whether you forgive me or not, I want to sincerely apologize to you!"
After she finished speaking, she took a step back and bowed deeply to Tong Xuelu.
She had lived long enough to see this!
Tong Xuelu never expected that Qian Caixin would take the initiative to apologize to her one day. Moreover, it was in public.
In the past, Qian Caixin was very prideful. She wouldn't even admit her mistakes, let alone apologize to her in public.
However, Tong Xuelu still felt an indescribable sense of discomfort.
She smiled faintly. "I accept your apology."
But whether or not she forgave her was another matter.
Qian Caixin wasn't stupid. She immediately understood what Tong Xuelu meant.
"Thank you. I've been wanting to apologize to you for a long time, but I never had the chance."
If it was the previous Qian Caixin, she would definitely be angry. However, there wasn't a trace of anger on her face.
"It wasn't until last month that I decided to apologize to you when I heard Bai Hui mention you that I decided to apologize to you. I didn't expect to meet you here today. I hope that your relationship with Bai Hui won't be affected because of me."
Tong Xuelu didn't comment.
Qian Caixin looked down at her watch and said, "It's getting late. I still have things to do. I'll leave first."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked back to the Santana. She bent down and got into the car. Then, she waved at them and drove off.
After the car was far away, Jiang Baihui rubbed her stomach and said, "It's noon now. I'll treat you guys. Speaking of which, I haven't treated you guys to a meal since I came back from Germany!"
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person.
Tong Xuelu and Fang Jingyuan nodded in agreement. The three of them found a restaurant and walked in.
As the host, Jiang Baihui respected Tong Xuelu and Fang Jingyuan very much. She let them order first. After they finished ordering, she added two meat dishes and a vegetable dish.
Fang Jingyuan said, "You don't have to order so much. How can the three of us finish it?"
Jiang Baihui smiled, revealing her white teeth. "It's okay. If we can't finish it, we can take it back. The main thing is that we haven't had a gathering in a long time. Don't save money for me."
Seeing Jiang Baihui being so easy-going, Fang Jingyuan couldn't help but think of the time they used to spend together.
In fact, she also felt that Jiang Baihui's personality had changed a little after she returned to China. Last time, she was jealous of Tong Xuelu in front of everyone, which made her very confused.
Later, Xiao Chengping said that there was something she couldn't figure out. A person's personality would change with the environment. Even if they met each other every day, their personality could become very scary, let alone Jiang Baihui who had been abroad for four years.
Life in a foreign country was the most difficult. Moreover, Jiang Baihui had to face such a big competition when she went there. No one knew what she had experienced, so it was very normal for her personality to change.
In fact, it wasn't that she didn't understand. She just didn't want to accept that friendship had changed.
At that time, she found that Jiang Baihui stared at Wen Rugui several times during the banquet, which made her feel even more uncomfortable. Fortunately, Jiang Baihui didn't do anything inappropriate after that.
Tong Xuelu and Fang Jingyuan didn't speak, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
However, Jiang Baihui didn't seem to notice the awkwardness and continued, "Xuelu, actually, Xinxin isn't the only one who owes you an apology. I also owe you an apology!
"I was very unhappy abroad for four years. I didn't get along with my colleagues at the diplomatic embassy. I used to think that I was very capable, but after I went to the diplomatic embassy, I realized that my capabilities were not worth mentioning. There were so many people who were smarter and more capable than me!
"I went to Germany to accompany Tianyi, but when I got there, I realized that I couldn't even see Tianyi once a month. At that time, I was very miserable and lost. I wrote a letter to tell you about it, but I only received your reply half a year later. I was very angry at that time, and I even resented you.
"Now that I think about it, I was really selfish. Professor Wen was sick at that time, and you were pregnant with twins. You must have been in a terrible state. Plus, it was inconvenient to communicate with other countries, but I didn't think about you at all. After returning to China, I saw that you had a happy family and a successful career. You were beautiful and rich. Compared to myself, I had nothing, so I became a villain. I couldn't help but be jealous of you.
I'm really sorry. "After speaking, she slowly stood up with her hands on her waist and bowed to Tong Xuelu.
After hearing her explanation, Fang Jingyuan finally understood why she had become like that. He couldn't help but forgive her on behalf of Tong Xuelu.
Seeing her doing this with her big belly, he was afraid that something would happen to her. He quickly went forward and helped her sit down. "You're about to give birth. Take it easy."
Jiang Baihui smiled at her gratefully. "I'm fine. I've been holding these words in my heart for a long time. I haven't seen you in the past few months. Firstly, I'm too ashamed to see you. Secondly, I'm reflecting on myself."
"The more useless a person is, the easier it is for them to be jealous of others. I didn't expect that one day, I would become so detestable. Xuelu, can you forgive me?"
Tong Xuelu looked at Jiang Baihui and wondered if today was the day of an apology.
Not only did Qian Caixin apologize to her, but Jiang Baihui also apologized to her.
But then again, she could choose not to forgive Qian Caixin because what she had done was unforgivable. However, she had no reason to embarrass Jiang Baihui.
Was she going to cut off all contact with her just because Jiang Baihui had said a few words of jealousy before?
Of course, she wouldn't immediately restore their previous relationship just because Jiang Baihui had said a few good words.
"Forgive me? You didn't do anything wrong to me. By the way, why are you doing business with Qian Caixin?"
Jiang Baihui's smile stiffened when she saw that Tong Xuelu didn't take the bait. However, she quickly pulled herself together. "Last month, I met Qian Caixin at the mall. She took the initiative to greet me and told me that she wanted to apologize to you. I felt that she wasn't as annoying as she was when she was still in school.
"At that time, I didn't have the face to see you. Tianyi was at the base every day, so there was no one around me to talk to. Coincidentally, I met Qian Caixin and wanted to talk to her casually. I didn't expect that after chatting with her, I realized that she had changed a lot.
"After she graduated, she went abroad to study at her own expense. She said that after seeing the outside world, she realized how narrow-minded and ridiculous she was in the past. She also said that the person she had let down the most was you. Later, she talked to me about starting a business. Do you still remember? I mentioned to you before that I wanted to start a business with beauty products. After chatting with her, I realized that we had the same idea.
"Later, she asked me if I wanted to start a business with her. I really wanted to have my own business like you, so I agreed. I worked with Caixin without asking for your permission first. Xuelu, I'm sorry!"
It's here, it's here. That strange feeling came again.
Jiang Baihui apologized to her and dissected her own psychological journey with her. She was happy to see it happen.
She wasn't surprised that she worked with Qian Caixin.
The world was bustling, and everyone came for profits. The world was bustling, and everyone went for profits. Everyone was an adult, so it was normal for them to value profits more after entering society.
However, what made her feel strange was that Jiang Baihui had carefully apologized to her for working with Qian Caixin. It was too much.
Jiang Baihui had lowered himself too much. It was as if he was trying to please her.
This kind of deliberate action was too strange.
However, Tong Xuelu didn't show it. "What are you sorry about? It's a good thing to start a business, but you have to be careful when you work with others. Even if brothers work together to do business, there can be conflicts."
When Jiang Baihui heard her say this, the expression on his face became more vivid. "I understand. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. I'll be careful. Huhuhu, I'm so touched. Xuelu, you still care about me … "
Tong Xuelu: "…"
The overall atmosphere of this meeting was very good, except for the sense of strangeness.
Jiang Baihui seemed to have returned to her university self. She was cheerful and witty, and a few casual words made Fang Jingyuan laugh.
After that, the relationship between the three of them seemed to have returned to how it was before.
However, Tong Xuelu was very busy with work, and Jiang Baihui was about to give birth, so the three of them didn't meet much.

After a few snowfalls in Beijing, it was the Spring Festival of 1985.
Xiao Jiaming had said that he wouldn't come back for the Spring Festival, and Commander Xiao had been nagging him for a few days.
However, on the night of the Spring Festival, he suddenly appeared at the door.
Moon Cake and Quicksand Bun saw their young master, whom they hadn't seen for half a year, and were so happy that they kept throwing themselves at him.
However, the big orange cat, Green Turtle, was very calm. It only opened its eyes to look at him, then closed its eyes and went back to sleep.
Green Turtle could eat and sleep, and it was now more than five kilograms. The big orange was heavy. This saying was never just a saying.
When Commander Xiao saw that his grandson was back, he was as happy as Moon Cake and Quicksand Bun. He kept patting his grandson on the shoulder and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
He asked him a series of questions about whether he had eaten, whether it was cold outside, and whether he wanted to take a shower. He had completely become a naggy and cute little old man.
Xiao Jiaming was still the same as before. He didn't have a trace of impatience. "Grandpa, don't worry. I've eaten. I'll go and tell my sister, and then I'll come back to take a shower."
Commander Xiao nodded. "Of course. Go."
Xiao Jiaming carried the specialties he had bought from Shen City, as well as clothes, toys, and books for the twins, and walked next door.
Tong Xuelu had just heard the noise from next door, but she didn't expect Xiao Jiaming to come back. "Didn't you say that you didn't have time to come back?"
They hadn't seen each other for half a year. Xiao Jiaming seemed to have grown a little taller and thinner, but he was in good spirits.
"Sister, I didn't have time to come back, but before the Spring Festival, we mastered the technology of Chinese pagers, so I came back!"
He couldn't help but want to share the good news with his family.
Chinese pagers hadn't been launched yet, but they had received a lot of orders, and all of them were big orders!
Tong Xuelu was stunned, and then her red lips curled up. "That's great. I thought you would need more time to develop it."
He was indeed a business genius. In such a short time, he had found a way and talents to develop Chinese pagers, and he had even received orders.
Xiao Jiaming was encouraged by his sister, and his eyes were filled with joy. "Sister, because the pagers haven't been produced yet, we won't be able to give you the bonus for a while."
Tong Xuelu's smile deepened. "Okay, then I'll wait to receive the money."
Xiao Jiaming saw that his sister didn't stand on ceremony with him, and he was even happier. He took out the things he had brought back.
In addition to the specialties, there were five Chinese pagers, which he had given to his sister and brother-in-law to use first. Tong Xuelu naturally wouldn't refuse.
After taking out the things, he glanced around and asked, "Sister, where are Ranran and Yanyan?"
Tong Xuelu: "The two little guys are staying up late in the study."
As they spoke, the two siblings walked towards the study.
In the study, Little Ranran couldn't help but fall asleep. The little girl's face was flushed, and her sleeping posture was very touching.
Her little butt was in the air, and her head was resting on the bed as she fell asleep.
Seeing his niece's cute sleeping posture, Xiao Jiaming hid a smile in his eyes and walked over to her to adjust her body.
Little Ranran's long and dense eyelashes fluttered a few times before she woke up. When she saw the person in front of her, she didn't seem to react immediately. "Mom, Ranran saw Second Uncle in a dream."
Tong Xuelu pinched his daughter's chubby little face. "It wasn't a dream. Your Second Uncle is back."
Little Ranran rubbed her eyes with her chubby hands a few times, but the person in front of her didn't disappear. She immediately rushed over. "Second Uncle, you're finally back. Ranran missed you so much."
Xiao Jiaming only felt his heart soften as he hugged the soft and Mianmian chubby little girl in his arms. "Second Uncle missed you guys too."
Wen Rugui came in from outside. When he saw his daughter lying obediently in Xiao Jiaming's arms, he immediately ate a mouthful of lemon.
On the other side of the kang bed, Little Yanyan was sleeping soundly in the same touching posture. Tong Xuelu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw this, so she quickly adjusted his body.
Unlike Little Ranran, Little Yanyan didn't wake up even after she called him several times.
The little guy seemed to be dreaming of eating delicious food again. His little lips smacked a few times, then he nibbled on his little fist and said in a childish voice, "Pig trotters are delicious, so delicious."
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter when they saw this.
During this Spring Festival, Little Ranran and Little Yanyan received red packets from their great-grandfather, parents, and other elders. They also received a big red packet from their Second Uncle.
When Tong Jiaxin saw his Second Brother giving red packets, he was afraid that the twins would be won over, so he hurriedly gave them two red packets as well.
Since both her brothers gave red packets, Little Mianmian definitely wouldn't be outdone.
Although she was young, she didn't lack money. The money she earned from filming and releasing albums was enough for her to lie down and eat for the rest of her life.
Therefore, she also gave the twins two big red packets. Each red packet contained a total of 100 yuan!
In short, Little Yanyan and Little Ranran received so many red packets that their hands went limp. The two little guys were extremely happy.
However, this happiness only lasted for a few days before Tong Xuelu took them away with the excuse of "Mommy will help you keep it safe".
Could they still get back the red packets that their parents took away?
The answer was, of course, impossible.

After the Spring Festival, Jiang Baihui gave birth to a chubby little boy on the day of the Lantern Festival.
Tong Xuelu, Fang Jingyuan, and Jiang Danhong went to buy fruits and tonics to visit her and the child.
Jiang Baihui's mother-in-law was overjoyed. She even thanked Tong Xuelu repeatedly for giving them the twins' diapers.
When Tong Xuelu and the rest went to the hospital, they didn't see Liang Tianyi.
He seemed to be very busy. They didn't see him until they left the hospital.
After the Spring Festival, everyone went back to work.
Just as Tong Xuelu was preparing for the Spring Festival Fair, something happened.
The parameters of the country's latest missile, the "DF-5", were leaked.
There might be spies hiding in the military industry!
