Chapter 250: Chapter 242: Parents Who Give Silently

Xia Lin hadn’t told him about the grievances she faced today. She didn’t have the face to say, for ever since the year turned, she’d begun to encounter nothing but bad luck.

This series of misfortunes had started with her incitement of Yang Linghua.

She regretted it now, but what could be done? What’s done was done, and she never blamed others.

Now that they were at odds, so be it; she’d just avoid them in the future. Xia Lin was harboring resentment, determined to grow her clothing factory larger and more well-known, to trample those from her past beneath her feet.

By then, she wanted Lu Jingqiu to know she wasn’t even worth the trouble of scheming against, that she could surpass her by several streets on her own.

But the man by her side kept disappointing her time and again, leaving her let down each time.

Thinking of this, Xia Lin’s heart felt as dead as ashes, sapped of all strength, she simply sat down on the stool behind her.

Meanwhile, Gao Shu, realizing what he had said, sobered up completely.

Realizing he had been too harsh on a pregnant woman, he wanted to apologize but couldn’t bring himself to do it, suddenly feeling a surge of guilt.

After hesitating for a long time, without caring about the quilt on the bed anymore, he sat dejectedly at the edge of the bed, and the couple fell into a cold war.

A few minutes passed like this, and Gao Shu smacked himself twice with a loud slap.

This startled Xia Lin.

"It’s all my fault, I drank too much today and said some nonsense. Linlin, please don’t take a drunkard like me too seriously. Don’t let it upset you to the point of harming yourself."

With that, he got up and walked over to Xia Lin.

Xia Lin felt a softening in her heart seeing him like this. Just like in her previous life, whenever they fought, regardless of whose fault it was, he would always vent his anger on himself first and never lay a finger on her no matter how wrong she was.

Just that alone made her want to live this life over again with him.

"Linlin, what you said just now was right, it was my lack of consideration. Whatever you want to do in the future, I won’t stop you. I’ve always known you’re different from the other girls in the village, and even more so from the others. You’re bold and unconventional; Ten-miles Village can’t confine you, and I can’t confine you either.

I know you’re very talented, especially when it comes to fashion. If you want to do it, then go for it.

As for Jingqiu, if you can’t get along peacefully... no, you’ve never gotten along peacefully in the first place. If you don’t like her, then don’t associate with her. Is that okay? Can you stop being angry now?"

The words of Gao Shu moved Xia Lin immensely. If a fight could bring about a change in him, then it was worth the dispute.

However, she couldn’t concede so easily and turned away, acting displeased.

Gao Shu was experienced by now; whenever they fought, it usually took several attempts at making amends. Seeing that it was getting dark,

and after they had been outside for so long, she needed rest as a pregnant woman. He promptly said, "I’ll move the quilt outside and replace it with a new one."

On the other side, Xue Jianian and Wei Jincheng, the young couple, were in the yard playing with their housecat.

They faintly heard the couple arguing. Today, everyone had been serving dishes to Xia Lin, never giving her the freedom to pick her own food.

No wonder she was angry.

"Jincheng, do you think they’ll make up within a few days?"

"Why bother with what’s happening to others, as long as you don’t fight with me," Wei Jincheng replied.

"Hmph, I’m busy making money right now, who has the time to quarrel with a blockhead like you?"

"Making money is good, but you can’t overwork yourself, if you’re tired at night, don’t open the shop."

Xue Jianian said, "I’m not tired. You might not believe it, but in just those two or three hours at night, I can sell quite a lot. Oh right, the crops in my space have ripened, I need to go harvest."

"Let me help you with the harvest; just pull me into your space," Wei Jincheng offered.

"Okay."

Xue Jianian never expected to be able to pull Wei Jincheng into her space, as even her grandfather couldn’t enter.

In the end, Wei Jincheng figured out the principle, stating that as long as there was intimate contact, he could enter her little world.

Intimate contact, Xue Jianian knew exactly how intimate that was.

Though a bit shy, it wasn’t unreasonable.

In this lifetime, she was tied to Wei Jincheng. If he ever betrayed her, she’d have the nerve to confine him in her little space for life.

If worse came to worst, she’d just stop entering, trapping him inside with no chance of escape.

Hmph...

At this moment, Wei Jincheng was enjoying the fruit in the space with great interest. Though he said he was there to harvest crops, Xue Jianian knew she could bag them all with just a thought.
