Chapter 273: Chapter 0273: Let’s Get Something Substantial
After hearing Qin Rumeng’s authoritative words, Qiu Ruoxi felt a surge of unprecedented emotion.
All the resentment towards Qin Rumeng and what she had done at the imperial map group had vanished.
This aunt isn’t bad, it’s just that her mouth is a bit sharp.
"Auntie..."
As if Qin Rumeng could see right through Qiu Ruoxi’s thoughts, she interrupted before Qiu Ruoxi could finish speaking, "You don’t need to thank me. I did this solely because you are currently Huanhuan’s wife, my Qin Rumeng’s niece-in-law!
"If you get bullied, I have nowhere to put my face," Qin Rumeng said stubbornly. "But I’m still not satisfied with you, really not satisfied!"
"But who asked my sister to fancy you!" Qin Rumeng sighed helplessly!
"Auntie, whether you accept me or not, I must thank you, thank you!"
Qiu Ruoxi did not mind Qin Rumeng’s words.
"Why are you so annoying, huh? I already told you not to thank me, and you still thank me!" Qin Rumeng said impatiently: "Do I need to be knocked down into pieces for you to be happy?"
Qiu Ruoxi was at a loss for words, unable to grasp Qin Rumeng’s flighty thoughts, just as she couldn’t understand Ye Xunhuan.
No wonder these two are aunt and nephew!
Even their thoughts are the same!
"Besides, it’s not like I won’t find fault with you anymore!"
Qiu Ruoxi was completely at a loss for what to say, thoroughly defeated by Qin Rumeng.
Then, as if Qin Rumeng remembered something, she slowly began, "What do you plan to do with the orphanage next?"
"I want to help them rebuild their house," Qiu Ruoxi said without hesitation. "I went there once, and the house is already considered a dangerous building, very unsafe!"
"Perfect. I know people in construction, I’ll handle it!" Qin Rumeng said without a second thought.
"Really?" Joy filled Qiu Ruoxi’s face!
"Do I look like someone who jokes about these things?" Qin Rumeng snorted coldly, "I’ll handle the construction team. As for education, medical issues, and such, you need to handle them. I don’t have that much free time to stay in this nowhere place!"
"Auntie, are you leaving then?"
It was the first time Qiu Ruoxi felt somewhat reluctant to let go of Qin Rumeng.
"Do you really want me to stay? To harass you at your company now and then, making you lose face..."
Qiu Ruoxi was left speechless by Qin Rumeng’s choking words, completely unsure of how to respond.
Watching Qiu Ruoxi’s bewildered demeanor, Qin Rumeng felt a sense of accomplishment, but didn’t show it on her face: "I’ll be leaving in a couple of days!"
"You and Huanhuan just look after each other. If it works, it works; if it doesn’t, then divorce!" Qin Rumeng said indifferently, "Then I can find a new wife for my little Huanhuan!"
"There are plenty of people in the capital who want to marry my Huanhuan!" Qin Rumeng said proudly: "Do you know Willow Qing?"
Qiu Ruoxi nodded.
"She wants to marry my Huanhuan. If you two divorce..." Qin Rumeng laughed, "Then he can marry Willow Qing. It would be awesome!"
Qiu Ruoxi’s nose twitched uncontrollably, if it wasn’t for Qin Rumeng in front of her, if it wasn’t for Ye Xunhuan’s aunt, maybe Qiu Ruoxi would have slapped her right then.
You just don’t see that kind of elder much.
Even when others see their younger relatives going through a divorce, they spare no effort to counsel reconciliation, but Qin Rumeng did the exact opposite, seemingly eager for them to divorce.
"You want me to divorce? No way, I’m not divorcing, I’ll drive you mad!"
Qiu Ruoxi couldn’t help but curse silently in her heart.
......
When Ye Xunhuan and Mei Hanqing brought the old orphanage director and the children to the room, the director looked around the luxurious presidential suite with as much curiosity as Lady Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, smacking his lips from time to time.
"How wonderful!" the director exclaimed after a glance, grinning toothily, "This is definitely the nicest place I’ve ever stayed in my life!"
A seemingly simple sentence, yet it touched Ye Xunhuan’s heart slightly, "If you like it, you could stay here more often..."
Hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, the director quickly shook his head, "How much money would that require? With that much money, I’d rather buy some food and clothes for the children!"
Ye Xunhuan sighed softly; he had spent his entire life thinking about the children, and even in his old age, that hadn’t changed.
He thought of others, but who ever thought of him?
This damn society... why must good people suffer such hardships?
While Ye Xunhuan was speaking with the director, Mei Hanqing had already taken the children to the bathroom to bathe.
The children had never stayed in such a place before, each one of them wildly excited, as if this place were heaven to them.
"Director, why don’t you sit down instead of standing all the time..."
"This place is so clean, and I’m..." the director replied with a dry laugh, his face full of embarrassment.
"We’ve paid, so we should enjoy, sit!"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan pushed the director down onto the sofa.
But after sitting, the director seemed as if he were covered in lice, constantly shifting around.
Ye Xunhuan knew the director was feeling uncomfortable and didn’t say anything, but instead took out a cigarette and offered one to the director; the two began to puff away, "Director, you have a good rest here today, and you don’t have to worry about the orphanage from now on!"
"The children won’t go hungry or cold in the future, they will definitely have good food and drink, books to read, and can go to the hospital when sick!"
"I know, I know!" the director said, his face full of joy. "It’s all thanks to you and Miss Qiu. If it weren’t for you two, I fear..."
"Director, don’t say that. What we’ve done is nothing compared to what you’ve done," Ye Xunhuan joked. "If they were to choose the top ten most touching people in Huaxia again, you would definitely be at the top!" 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓅𝓊𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
"If you become famous, remember to give me a boost, let me see what it feels like to be a star!"
"What’s this about the top ten most touching people in Huaxia? It’s all nonsense. Just follow your heart. That stuff is useless, can’t exchange it for anything for the children..."
Ye Xunhuan smiled; the director had devoted his life to the orphanage, and saying this, Ye Xunhuan could understand.
After a while, Mei Hanqing had finished bathing the children and put them to bed, one by one.
Since it was very late, Mei Hanqing and Ye Xunhuan didn’t stay much longer and let the director rest as they left.
After stepping out of the room, Mei Hanqing looked at Ye Xunhuan with a grateful expression, "Ye Xunhuan, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I fear..."
"No need for thanks, how about something practical instead!" Ye Xunhuan’s eyes mischievously scanned Mei Hanqing’s figure.
Seeing the look in Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, Mei Hanqing’s face flushed slightly, then she boldly asked, "What practical thing do you want?"
"There’s a room next door, how about we roll around the sheets and have a deeper conversation?"
