Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1624 - 1288_2
Previously on Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All...
Life in the countryside is tough, but if you have money, what’s there to be afraid of? You can always change things, can’t you?
Kang Li said, "That’s not what I meant, I’m just worried you won’t be used to it."
"There’s nothing to get used to or not. Just remember this: in your grandfather’s and my heart, wherever you are is where we’ll be." As Jiang Boya said this, on the heated brick bed, Jiang Hongfa heard it, saw Kang Li look over at him, and couldn’t help nodding. He said, "In our family’s three generations, it’s just your dad, you, and this old man here. While I’m still alive, your grandfather just wants to watch you father and daughter happily walk the rest of your road."
The older a person gets, the lonelier they become; whenever they’re alone, they can’t help thinking about all sorts of things.
Having lived to this age, other than being with his son and granddaughter and enjoying the happiness of family, he had no other wishes.
Here, Kang Li was chatting idly with Jiang Hongfa and Jiang Boya; her expression was moved, the atmosphere around them warm with a faint hint of bitterness. Meanwhile, far away in G City, Xu Chunxia was being beaten by a wealthy madam.
"Vixen! You shameless vixen! How dare you seduce my man. You brazen thing, you’ve got hands and feet, why can’t you do some honest work? Why do you only think about sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others’ labor?"
Ding Dalan hated that her man kept a woman outside. Back then, if her own family hadn’t put up the money to help him start his business, how would the Cheng family have what they had today? But that damned man, once he saw her getting old and losing her looks, went behind her back and kept another woman outside. If her younger sisters Erlan and Sanlan hadn’t accidentally stumbled on it, she’d probably still be kept in the dark even now.
"Big Sis, you come hold her down, let me help you beat this vixen!" Ding Erlan and Ding Sanlan, one pinned down Xu Chunxia’s legs, the other grabbed Xu Chunxia’s hands. Both of them glared, eyes spitting fire, at the vixen pressed to the floor, unable to move, bawling as she begged for mercy.
"Okay."
Ding Dalan stood up and made room for her younger sister Ding Erlan. Seeing Ding Erlan’s slaps raining left and right on the vixen’s face, she couldn’t describe how satisfying it felt.
Not long after, she called Ding Sanlan over to lay into Xu Chunxia’s body.
To the side, a short, chubby middle-aged man stood against the wall. Not only was there bruising on his face, but the scratch marks on his neck were clearly visible. His expression was blank, as if he wasn’t even seeing Xu Chunxia being savagely taken revenge on by his wife and two sisters-in-law.
"Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng, save me, save me!"
Xu Chunxia was crying so hard her voice was hoarse. The year she gave up her child and divorced, she took the money the Hu Family gave her and came to G City wanting to learn to do business like others. Who knew that when she got off the train she’d find all her money gone. She didn’t need to think too hard to know she must have been pickpocketed on the train.
With her soul all but gone, she panicked, completely at a loss, tears streaming down her face without her realizing it. And it was on that day that she met the person she thought was her benefactor.
The man was about forty or fifty, average-looking, but gentle in manner. Learning she didn’t have a cent on her, he took the initiative to offer her a job to get through the hard times.
But somehow, in less than half a month, she ended up having that kind of relationship with him, and then he kept her in a villa.
She didn’t have to do anything, she just needed to be a gentle little woman whenever the man came by.
She enjoyed those days very much and felt truly happy.
She didn’t have to worry about food or clothes, and had plenty of money to spend.
However, after only half a year, she was told to move out as soon as possible.
Seeing her good days gone, how could she accept it?
When she refused to leave, the man simply dragged her out of the villa in broad daylight, tossed her suitcase and a wad of cash beside her.
With no one she could turn to, she picked up the five thousand yuan thrown at her feet and checked into a hotel. It didn’t take long before the money was almost gone. Afraid that once it was all spent she’d have nothing to eat, she had no choice but to think of a way to make a living.
But she had no diploma, and she didn’t want to suffer or tire herself out. It was hard to find a job suitable for her in a short time. In the end, gritting her teeth, she chose to take a shortcut—relying on men.
Once she had that idea, sure enough, she managed to snare a real sucker.
Cheng Fuguo, an unremarkable, middle-aged, paunchy big boss who owned a garment factory. She thought she had him wrapped around her little finger, but it turned out he was tightfisted as hell. Not only did he not give her a big villa to live in, the pocket money he gave her each time never exceeded one thousand yuan.
He also ordered her to go out as little as possible.
She wasn’t happy about it, but afraid of losing this free meal ticket, she did her best to go along. She never expected that just a short while ago, after she pestered this Cheng guy until he finally agreed to take her to the mall for a shopping spree, it would bring about today’s disaster!
"That really isn’t something I can decide with just one word." Kang Li’s eyes were calm and steady, a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. "No matter what company it is, every department has its own person in charge; it’s not like one person calls all the shots. But like an auntie such as you, who likes cleanliness, pays attention to hygiene, and is in good health, once our factory starts hiring, there’s a big chance you’ll get in without any problem."
