Chapter 358 Fang Qing Agrees to Sell the Shopfront
If the housing issue can be resolved, it will be a major problem solved, and she will no longer have to envy Lin Yuyao for living in a new house.
Fang Qing felt as if happiness was beckoning to her from just ahead.
Since Lu Jiangting had already put it that way, Fang Qing also responded, "I will use it sparingly."
Lu Jiangting sighed softly and looked at Fang Qing, saying, "These next few years will be tough on you."
"It's okay, we'll get through these next few years together. As long as you're willing to live a good life with me, I'm willing to endure some hardship."
Lu Jiangting recalled that night downstairs, seeing their lights take so long to go out, and felt as if his heart had been pierced through a sieve.
Why is he unwilling to touch Fang Qing?
Firstly, he was somewhat unwilling to accept it, always feeling that Fang Qing was not good enough for him.
Secondly, he was still unwilling to accept it, feeling that Yuyao would eventually break up with Fu Huaiyi over trivial matters in life.
Only then will she understand that the feelings between childhood sweethearts cannot be compared to lust at first sight, and she will understand who truly loves her.
But now, he suddenly feels very tired.
He didn't want to endure that resentment any longer.
Why not just settle down and live a good life with Fang Qing?
Just now, listening to his parents' words and looking at their aged faces, he finally made up his mind.
He opened this hotel so that Fang Qing would treat them better, and also to give up on him.
"Fang Qing, let's live a good life together from now on."
Fang Qing was still a little confused.
Lu Jiangting didn't want to look at her, so he turned around and started taking off his clothes.
Fang Qing instantly understood what he meant.
It was so sudden that she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
Then, shyly, she turned to the other side and took off her clothes.
Half an hour later, they came out of the hotel.
Lu Jiangting remained expressionless, while Fang Qing followed behind him, her face flushed.
Lu Jiangting walked very fast, and she had to jog to keep up.
But she didn't utter a single complaint.
After all, she had worked hard to get this day.
She understood the saying, "It takes more than one cold day for ice to freeze three feet deep."
From something completely impossible, to marriage, to sleeping together... everything was moving in a positive direction.
take it easy.
Just as she was thinking this, the person in front of her suddenly stopped, and she almost bumped into his back.
"Jiang Ting, what's wrong?"
“Our family has such a heavy burden, we can’t have children. Go buy some medicine.”
Fang Qing: "..."
How can you keep him tied down if you don't have children?
How long can he keep up with his busy schedule? Will he still be busy even after she has given birth?
Fang Qing thought for a moment and said, "Jiang Ting, what you said is right. But have you ever thought about how old our parents are, especially our father, who has this incurable disease. How many years do he have left to live?"
Lu Jiangting pursed his lips.
Fang Qing continued, "They want a grandson, can't you tell? They don't say anything because they're afraid of burdening you. But can you bear to see your father die without ever having one?"
“What you said makes sense, but given our current situation, we really can’t afford to raise them.”
"It's okay, I'll sell the storefront and get through these two years first."
Lu Jiangting was taken aback, then nodded, "Alright, Fang Qing, don't worry, we're better off now, we'll buy that shop back."
Fang Qing smiled and nodded, "Okay, I believe you."
"Then I'll tell my sister and ask her to arrange the sale. After it's sold, I'll have her transfer the money to us."
Fang Qing: "Can you trust your sister?"
Lu Jiangting's face darkened, and he said with an unfriendly gaze, "That's my sister. If I can't even trust my own sister, who can I trust? Besides, I'll tell her later that the house was sold to pay for my father's medical treatment. How could she possibly be greedy?"
This makes sense.
Fang Qing said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Fang Qing went back to continue cooking, but Lu Jiangting couldn't sit still for long after returning.
Instead of going out for a walk, he went to Lin Yuyao's neighborhood.
I stood far away, looking up at the fifth floor of that building.
Sometimes Lu Jiangting felt that he was really pathetic. An hour ago, he felt that he should let go. Whether for his parents or for himself, he should say goodbye to the past and live a good life with Fang Qing.
But having done everything he was supposed to do, he regretted it now that he was clear-headed.
At this moment, my mind was filled with images of growing up with Lin Yuyao; it was all about her.
How could he bear to let go?
……
After returning home, Lin Yuyao immediately began killing fish and cooking meat.
She cooked a braised fish, a plate of stir-fried green peppers with pork, a stir-fried vegetable dish, and a tomato and egg soup.
She was wielding the spatula in front of her, while Fu Huaiyi was holding her waist from behind.
"Aren't you annoying? Don't get so close, it's so hot."
"Then I'll fan you." He quickly went to the living room to get a fan and started fanning you.
Lin Yuyao was both amused and exasperated; this man was really too clingy.
The food would be ready soon, and Lin Yuyao told him to quickly get a bowl, fill it with rice, and wash the chopsticks.
With fish and meat, three dishes and a soup, it was served quickly.
Despite the sweltering heat, they each opened a bottle of beverage.
Lin Yuyao sighed, "You have to be rich to live comfortably. You can eat whatever you want and don't have to worry about saving money at all."
I must have been out of my mind in my past life to have taken on the heavy burden of the Lu family.
For decades, he burned himself to illuminate his enemies.
"By the way, a friend from my hometown came to visit."
Fu Huaiyi was taken aback. "A friend? Someone who came to see you?"
Lin Yuyao nodded and said, "Actually, she's not just my friend. She shares the same surname as my mother, and we're related by ancestry."
"Are you related by marriage?"
Lin Yuyao nodded, "It's been several generations. Her great-grandfather and my maternal great-grandfather were brothers."
"That's several generations ago, exactly five degrees of kinship."
"Yes, so we're relatives in a way."
"Oh, is it a boy or a girl?"
“She’s a girl, she used to be my classmate. She’s actually quite pitiful, she came here to rely on me.”
Lin Yuyao briefly explained Ye Xiaotong's situation.
She didn't go into details, only saying that her in-laws treated her badly, that her father-in-law and husband were uneducated and held onto Qing Dynasty ideas, and that they often beat and scolded her.
The children were all aborted.
She couldn't live that kind of life, so she ran away.
Fu Huaiyi looked puzzled. "Instead of going back to your parents' home, you've come here instead?"
“Her family is unreliable; they sent her there for money.”
They mentioned that she had brothers in her family, and how she sold her daughter to support her son.
Fu Huaiyi found it terrifying.
She thought to herself that it was good that the Lin family was not like that. Yao Yao also had older and younger brothers, and her father-in-law never thought of selling her to help his son.
"That's certainly not easy, but running away like this isn't a long-term solution. We still need to find a way to get a divorce."
"They didn't get a marriage certificate because the woman wasn't old enough when they got married."
“Even though they didn’t have a marriage certificate, a common-law marriage still counts. This is more complicated than getting a divorce with a marriage certificate; the only option is to file for divorce through litigation,” Fu Huaiyi said.
