s.h.i.+vering With Fear Part 2

“Clear everything!” 

His boss strode towards the restaurant.

Xue Ying's foot stepped on the shoulder of the waiter kneeling on the ground. Then, one after another, a few miserable shrieks were heard.

After he was done, Xue Ying approached Gu Yezhi and whispered to him. “Well done, sir. Those people just now will never appear in front of you again.” Seeing his boss was still frowning, Xue Ying retreated.

Gu Yezhi watched Bai Qingyan patiently teach Bai Jian how to cut steak. He took a sip of his red wine, feeling in a good mood. The fragrance of the wine blossomed in his mouth.

His eyes narrowed slightly. When she was in danger, her heart believed he would help her. This sense of dependency was of great benefit to Gu Yezhi.

Bai Jian, from time to time, covertly glanced at Gu Yezhi. He was a little frightened at how his nephew-in-law had dealt with those people.

Before, when he had been invited to their wedding in T State, he only thought Gu Yezhi was very rich. The wedding had been very grand. He even thought Gu Yezhi was a fellow citizen of T State.

In her past life, Bai Qingyan thought she'd definitely divorce and marry Gu Hang. So she didn't say much about Gu Yezhi's situation to Bai Jian.

He looked at her and said, “Yan Yan, let me do it. I'm just not used to eating it, but I've seen it on TV before. I'll learn quickly.”

Once she heard those words, Bai Qingyan suddenly felt her mood sour. She put down her knife and fork and reached into her bag. Pulling out her bank card, she gave it to Bai Jian. 

“Uncle, I have a job now. I can make more money soon. Don't work so hard. This is some pocket money that Yezhi gave me. Take it.”

Gu Yezhi stared at Bai Jian. Did that woman know how much money was there in the card? How could she just give it away?

But he didn't care about that card at all. Bai Jian had always been very good to Bai Qingyan. Besides, she was willing to give him a golden mountain. He had no objections.

Whoever his wife respected, he would also respect.

To love a house was to love even the crows that lived in it.

But Bai Jian refused the gift. “No, Yan Yan. I can't accept this money. Now that you're married, you have to learn how to take care of your family. How can you give money to your mother's home? Your uncle is still young enough to make money.”

“Uncle… ” Bai Qingyan stretched out her hand and held Bai Jian's hands. He said ‘her family'. He was her only family member, which moved Bai Qingyan very much.

This move, unfortunately, made Gu Yezhi the mysophobic frown. His eyes rested on Bai Jian's face for a moment as a thought appeared in his mind.

His little wife was so dependent on her uncle… If she knew…

He gracefully took a sip of wine before speaking. “Yan Yan, your uncle is a man and won't accept your money. I'll let someone take care of uncle at work.” He knew Bai Jian worked in a factory. He had worked hard for most of his life and finally became a deputy factory director.

“Really? Thank you, Yezhi.” Bai Qingyan's eyes lit up with grat.i.tude. Then, she hugged Bai Jian firmly. In this life, Gu Hang didn't want to hurt his uncle!

The dinner was very enjoyable if one didn't think about the unhappy things that happened in the beginning. After the meal, the couple sent Bai Jian back to Bai Residence.

Leaning over the window, Bai Qingyan looked at her uncle with a gentle smile as she waved him goodbye.
