Chapter 303: Invite Migrant Workers to Have Meal_1
That night, Qin Muchuan did not return to his room, leaving Lin Xiangwan alone in their double bed again. She spent the entire night lying awake.
Looking at the pitch-dark room, Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but laugh at herself in her mind.
What exactly does she want?
Why is it that every time she insists on separate rooms, when he genuinely doesn’t return to their room, the one heartbroken is her?
She really was foolish. Perhaps, he was more than willing to~ avoid living a married life with her?
Perhaps he’d rather sleep alone in his study, alone on his bed, rather than have her by his side?
Once again, she was angry, and felt like crying, unable to sleep until the break of dawn.
With a delay, when she eventually left her room, Qin Muchuan was already gone.
"Young Mistress, what would you like to eat?"
Lin Xiangwan shook her head. "I can’t eat. My appetite is gone."
"Even without an appetite, you ought to eat. Otherwise, your health will deteriorate!" The butler urged. "Even though you may be young and think nothing affects you, if you don’t look after yourself well now, your old age will be a problem!"
"Old age?" Lin Xiangwan repeated the phrase under her breath. She looked terrible with two heavy dark circles under her eyes.
"Your body belongs to you, everything else is extraneous!" The butler expressed another profound remark.
Lin Xiangwan nodded. "Yes, I need to take care of my body. I want to live until I’m a hundred years old and let’s see who would dare take my place!"
If she didn’t protect her body and passed away too soon, Qin Muchuan would belong to another woman!
Just the thought of this filled Lin Xiangwan’s heart with terror. "I’ll eat. I want eggs, milk, bacon..."
"Very well, everything has been prepared!"
After hastily wolfing down her food, Lin Xiangwan stood in front of the mirror, almost terrified at her own reflection.
Was this truly her?
Her hair was dull and dry like straw, her eyes didn’t just have dark circles - they were also puffy and swollen.
Then there was her face, utterly lifeless, her skin color was frightening.
When was the last time she properly looked at herself in the mirror? Why did she allow herself to become so unsightly?
This can’t continue, she had to make a change!
Back in her room, she rummaged through her belongings until she found a beauty salon card that Qin Muchuan had given her. Where had she placed it?
Just as she discovered it in an unused purse, her phone rang - it was a call from Ji Sen.
Seeing Ji Sen’s name, she felt a pang of uneasiness as if she was genuinely terrified of Qin Muchuan.
Recognizing her own lack of courage, she scorned herself.
Why should she fear him? Why should she obey him? She hadn’t done anything wrong; she was 100% loyal to their marriage.
On the contrary, it was him, maintaining a connection with his ex-girlfriend.
With an annoyed tone, she answered the phone. "Hello, I need you to come out."
"What’s the matter?"
"Help me choose a bed. I’m missing one in my room, and I’m not sure what kind to buy. While you’re at it, help me with beddings too!" Ji Sen sounded confused.
"I can help you buy those, but first, you have to accompany me to the beauty salon!" Lin Xiangwan declared. She was set on getting treatments, and nothing would stop her.
"A beauty salon? Since when did you start doing that?" Ji Sen sounded surprised.
"As I get older, personal grooming is important!" After saying that, Lin Xiangwan hurriedly left her home.
Ji Sen’s car was already waiting outside, she quickly got in.
Before even settling into her seat, she directed him to a specific address.
Ji Sen observed her frantic aura and asked mockingly, "What? Is your husband starting to neglect you?"
"..." Lin Xiangwan remained silent.
"For a man who has changed his heart, it’s pointless to torture yourself. But if you are working on yourself, I am in agreement!" Ji Sen smiled as he said this.
"Great!" Lin Xiangwan responded confidently, "I’m doing this for myself, not anyone else! Time for a change!"
Lin Xiangwan spent nearly three hours at the beauty salon, followed by hair treatment for another hour.
By one o’clock in the afternoon, her beauty battle ended.
Ji Sen, who was starving, begged Lin Xiangwan to buy him lunch.
After the beauty treatment, not only did she look radiant, but her mood also improved. She enthusiastically took Ji Sen to a lavish meal.
Having glanced at the menu, Ji Sen asked, "Are you sure you’re ready to splurge?"
"Yup!" Lin Xiangwan nodded nonchalantly. "Order whatever you want and be quick about it. There won’t be a next time!"
Ji Sen was puzzled. "Seriously, why have you suddenly become so generous?"
Lin Xiangwan waved the card in her hand. "This is not my money, it’s someone else’s!"
Ji Sen understood, "Oh~~ I see. Since we have a benefactor, I don’t need to hold back!"
"Come on..." Ji Sen called the waiter and pointed at the extravagant dishes on the menu, ordering away.
The restaurant owner was delighted, and to show his appreciation, he added four extra dishes to their order.
With the table filled to the brim, Lin Xiangwan felt full without having taken a bite.
Similarly, Ji Sen only managed a few bites before surrendering.
"It’s such a waste to throw all this away!" Lin Xiangwan expressed her concern. They had barely touched the majority of the dishes!
"Yes, I agree. To waste food like this can bring disaster upon us!" Ji Sen agreed.
They both were orphans, very aware of how tough past times had been!
"How about this then, we could let the homeless eat these dishes?" Ji Sen suggested.
Lin Xiangwan shook her head energetically. "Most homeless people are lazy, they don’t deserve this."
Just then, a group of construction workers happen to be standing outside the restaurant. There are about twelve or thirteen of them.
Ji Sen decided. "Let’s invite them to eat!"
Lin Xiangwan nodded. "Okay!"
Soon, the construction workers were invited in. At first, the restaurant’s staff was reluctant, disliking the worker’s dirty attire.
Lin Xiangwan and Ji Sen paid no attention to the restaurant staff’s attitude.
Through conversation, they learned that this group of construction workers were here to demand their wages.
Ji Sen asked, "How much does the contractor owe you?"
"Six months’ worth of wages. All this while he kept promising to pay, but he never did. We’ve got to stop working until we get paid!" The team leader of the workers was furious. "How can anyone treat people like this!"
"Who are you building for?" Ji Sen asked again.
"For Huatai Group!"
"Huatai?" Upon hearing this name, Lin Xiangwan felt like she saw a familiar face.
