Chapter 75: Poor Couples Have Many Troubles (Please Subscribe!)
Nan Li returned home.

In the days after the divorce, even though it was a fake divorce, their relationship was not even as good as that of roommates.

The once warm home is now filled with a suffocating awkwardness.

Xia Junshan couldn't just watch things develop in the worst direction.

Today is the anniversary of the couple's acquaintance.

Xia Junshan also specially ordered a cake.

He wanted to break the deadlock in such a ritualistic way.

"Lili, you're back?" Xia Junshan heard the door open and immediately went to greet her with a smile.

"Yeah." Nan Li just responded weakly, took off her high heels expressionlessly, and then walked straight into the room.

"Look what I prepared today?"

Seeing this, Xia Junshan quickly stepped forward to stop Nan Li, pointing in the direction of the dining table. The cake looked particularly tempting under the light.

When Huanhuan and Chaochao heard their mother coming back, they also walked out of the room.

Nan Li really wasn't in the mood to play this kind of whitewashing trick with Xia Junshan.

Can a cake solve all the tedious chores at home?

Can a cake restore their relationship?

She visited Nan Jianlong two days ago.

She learned from Nan Jianlong that more than half of the 1.2 million yuan Zhao Na took out was actually paid by Nan Jianlong.

This also includes the money Nan Jianlong earned from selling the cemetery.

She felt very uncomfortable.

She had always kept her distance from Nan Jianlong, but this time buying a house emptied out all of Nan Jianlong's savings.

Moreover, Cai Juying left in anger. Without Cai Juying's care, Nan Jianlong's life became a mess and his home was in a mess.

The most worrying thing is that the school district house cannot be sold yet. After it is sold, Xia Chaochao can only accept the unified planning for schooling.

The current house we live in cannot be sold. We can’t have the whole family squeezed into an old and dilapidated school district house of 40 square meters.

I don’t know how long my remaining savings can support this family.

These things made her very worried.

How could she now have the energy to accompany Xia Junshan to perform the story of family reunion?

But seeing the expectant eyes of the two children, she couldn't bear to do it.

"Have you finished your homework?" Nan Li came to the dining table and sat down, asking Xia Huanhuan directly.

Xia Huanhuan immediately lowered her head, not daring to look at Nan Li.

She felt that her mother was becoming more and more like her aunt, becoming more and more utilitarian, and now every time she asked about something, it was about studying.

Xia Junshan immediately smiled along, his voice flattering: "Lili, I've checked everything. Huanhuan's homework is still a little short of finishing."

"What time is it, and I haven't finished my homework yet." Nan Li frowned and glanced at the watch on her wrist. "If I don't work hard now, what will I do in the future?"

Xia Junshan forced a smile and said, "It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer. Let the children have some cake first. Today is our anniversary, let the children be happy too."

Nan Li looked at Xia Junshan, then at the two children, and sighed: "Let's all sit down and eat."

Xia Junshan quickly waved the two children over and started cutting the cake.

Huanhuan and Chaochao, brother and sister, were like two little quails, busying themselves eating the delicious cake.

After dividing the meat among Xia Huanhuan and Xia Chaochao, Xia Junshan then prepared to cut a piece for Nan Li.

"How's your job search going?"

Xia Junshan stopped cutting the cake and an embarrassed look instantly appeared on his face.

He felt strange when talking about this.

He could clearly feel that the interviewers recognized and were satisfied with his expertise during the interviews, but for some reason, every time the interviews ended, it was like a drop in the ocean with no response at all.

"I...I will submit a few more resumes tomorrow, and I will definitely find a job." Xia Junshan's voice was a little low. He tried to give Nan Li some hope, but there was obviously a lack of confidence in his words.

"What will you do if no company wants you? You can't always be so blindly optimistic. We don't have that much time to waste."

"Lili, I know..." Xia Junshan wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Nan Li.

"You don't know." Nan Li sighed heavily, her face full of dissatisfaction with Xia Junshan. "With the current situation at home, we have to pay the mortgage, raise the children, and maintain daily expenses. I can't support it all with my salary alone."

"I..." Xia Junshan could tell that Nan Li was emotional, but he didn't know how to relieve it.

Like Nan Li, he is also a little aloof and self-conceited. Deep in his heart, he also has his own pride and persistence.

Otherwise, in the original drama, they would not have turned a deaf ear to the design suggestions put forward by the wealthy Fang Yuanyang, and even directly rejected the cooperation between the company and Fang Yuanyang because of differences in concepts.

"I didn't say that you can't continue to look for a job as a designer. You can keep sending out resumes. If you don't get an interview, you can deliver takeout or drive an online ride-hailing car. You can make a lot of money in a month. Why are you just sitting there doing nothing?"

Naturally, Xia Junshan was unwilling to take off Kong Yiji's gown. How could he, a top student who graduated from a prestigious 985 university and had worked in the design field for many years and was a well-known designer in the industry, deliver food and drive an online ride-hailing car?

If this was seen by my friends and classmates, I would lose all face.

Xia Junshan's eyes lit up with hope, and he said solemnly, "Lili, I promise you that I will find a job within this week."

"I hope so." Nan Li looked at the cake in front of her without any intention of tasting it.

If we really could have found it, we would have found it long ago. Why would it have been delayed until today?

Nan Li just took a small bite symbolically. The cake was sweet, but she had no appetite.

Seeing that the two children had almost finished eating, she asked Xia Huanhuan to go back to the room to do homework, while she took Chaochao to brush their teeth and wash up, leaving Xia Junshan sitting there alone.

The light of hope that had just ignited in his eyes gradually dimmed amid the mess on the table.

…………On Friday noon, the sun was shining weakly on the earth.

Lin Yuan parked his car in front of Fengfan Primary School, waiting for Zhang Xueer to get off work.

Fengfan Primary School only has half a day of classes on Friday, and many parents who want to pick up their children have already gathered at the door.

After a while, Zhang Xueer opened the car door and got in. As soon as she sat down, she couldn't help but blow a breath of hot air into her palms.

The weather today is unbelievably cold, only 5 degrees.

Zhang Xueer had already put on a thick cotton coat, but she still felt bone-chilled.

She couldn't help but sigh: "It's really cold today."

"I bought it for you. See if you like it?"

As Lin Yuan spoke, he picked up an exquisite package from the back seat and handed it to Zhang Xueer with a smile.

The packaging is light blue with a big white bow tied on it.

"Thank you, dear." Zhang Xueer opened the bag and saw the beautiful and soft scarf inside, her heart filled with joy.

She leaned forward, put her arms around Lin Yuan's neck, and kissed him on the cheek.

The coolness from the soft lips was like a cool breeze.

Although Zhang Xueer is not a materialistic girl.

But I am also very happy to receive gifts from my loved ones.

This was the second gift Lin Yuan gave to Zhang Xueer after he traveled through time.

Although this was bought by Nan Li, he is just offering something by borrowing flowers to pay tribute to Buddha.

But Zhang Xueer won’t know that.

Giving women surprises all the time is just a waste of time.

If you don't send it to your parents one time, they will blame you for not being attentive and not loving you anymore.

Especially those who have drunk too much toxic chicken soup will say: What I care about is not the gift itself, but your attitude.

Retweet a post on WeChat Moments or Weibo:
“Those who are willing do not need to be taught, and those who are not willing cannot be taught.”

"Being poor and being perfunctory are two different things."

"Maybe I'm too easy to get, so I'm not cherished."

It was as if not buying a gift was a violation of heaven's law and the whole world had to know about it.

Of course, this is all off topic and has gone too far.

"Honey, what time is our flight?" Zhang Xueer wrapped the scarf around her neck, tilted her head slightly, and asked with a chuckle.

"It's a little after two o'clock. We'll still make it." Lin Yuan said as he started the car.

They have also visited most of the large and small attractions in Shanghai.

The days ahead are not very suitable for traveling. If you don’t go out now, you will have to wait a long time.

Qiongya Island is bustling with people on weekends.

But the impact on them is not that great.

The two of them chartered a yacht of the same model as Charlotte's, and the yacht sailed on the sparkling sea.

Zhang Xueer stood on the deck in a swimsuit. Her beautiful figure against the backdrop of the sunshine and sea breeze looked like a moving picture.

Sunshine, sea breeze, waves, red wine, beauty...

Lin Yuan somewhat understood that feeling.

…………

After that, he and Zhang Xueer experienced several activities unique to Qiongya Island.

Watching Qiong Opera, exploring caves, and taking helicopter low-altitude tours...

The two flew back on Sunday evening.

Zhang Xueer attaches great importance to the profession of teacher, and she does not want her students' studies to be affected by her trip with her boyfriend.

Lin Yuan didn't mind. Traveling is about seeing different scenery and tasting unique food.

The feeling of novelty is only fleeting; if you stay in one place for too long, it becomes boring.

In fact, for Lin Yuan, every minute and every second in this world is also a kind of travel.

The only drawback is that I spent both days of the weekend visiting Qiongya Island, which caused the progress bar of the plug-in to slow down.

[Physique LV3 (495/500)]

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Lin Yuan and Zhang Xueer returned home.

Tian Yulan also lives here.

Zhang Xueer also asked Lin Yuan why Tian Yulan didn't go home, and why she would still live here even if Yan Ziyu didn't come here for extra lessons.

Lin Yuan did not tell Zhang Xueer that Tian Yulan had divorced Yan Peng.

It’s just that there was some conflict between Tian Yulan and Yan Peng’s family, so they are living here temporarily, and they have also signed a lease contract, so it’s not easy for me to chase them away.

Although Zhang Xueer still felt a little strange, she didn't think much about it.

After washing up, they changed into comfortable pajamas and went to bed to rest.

Although traveling is fun, the physical fatigue is also real. Not long after Zhang Xueer lay down on the bed, the sound of her even breathing could be heard in the room.

Seeing that Zhang Xueer was so sleepy, the romantic thoughts in Lin Yuan's heart disappeared. He couldn't bear to bother her any more, so he quietly walked out of the room.
