Richest Man's Wife Chapter 9

Mr. and Mrs. Bai nodded. They believed their daughter's words.

Apart from anything else, who wouldn't say their daughter is pretty? It's normal for Nathan to think so.

After a moment's hesitation, Bai's mother asked, "What are you going to do now?"

The past is the past, and now we have no feelings for each other, he is just here to save the day. When the words came to his lips, Hannah Bai looked up and saw that there were a few more wrinkles at the corners of his mother's eyes, and fatigue was obvious between her eyebrows.

And there was my father, with a few noticeable white hairs on his temples. When he went to get the broom, his back was much bent than usual.

After what happened today, they seemed a few years older than usual.

She was born late. She is 22 years old this year, but her parents are both 50 years old.

Since she was little, she was more naughty than other children and often got into trouble, but her parents never blamed her or cleaned up the mess for her.

Today, I made them worry about my own affairs again. I am really unfilial...

Hannah Bai's eyes were sore, he looked away and pretended to be cheerful: "Of course I'll try it out first. You know I like good-looking people, and Yu Chen's looks meet my aesthetic standards. As soon as I called him today, he immediately came to help me. He might be interested in me too."

"Mom and Dad, don't worry about it. Don't listen to your aunt and the others. Your daughter is so beautiful, are you still worried that she won't find a partner?"

Bai's mother sighed, "Of course I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid that you'll feel bad, Lucas Chu..."

"Don't mention his name. It's because I, as a father, am incompetent. I can't handle the injustice my daughter has suffered..."

Hannah Bai glared, "Who said that you, Dad, are incompetent? I'm angry with you. Dad, you have taught so many talented people. Okay, okay, Yu Chen is so good? He is tall and handsome, much better looking than Lucas Chu. How could I be upset?"

In the bedroom---

"Young Master, you don't know that the old man just hung up the phone, drank a bowl of tonic soup, and ate two cakes. Now he's going to take a walk in the garden. He said he wanted to exercise and not be sick and unable to hold his great-grandson in the future."

"Knowing that the young master had a girlfriend, the old man was so happy, as if a huge stone weighing on his heart had been lifted. He used to sigh all day, but now he is so energetic."

"By the way, the old man also asked Dr. Liu to come and prescribe some medicine for him to strengthen his body. He said that he would go to S City to find you when he gets better..."

He knew the old man's character, he was a man of his word. Since he said so, Nathan knew that he would really come.

After hanging up the phone, he pressed his temples, feeling a headache.

Half an hour later, Hannah Bai knocked on the door on time.

After saying goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Bai, the two walked towards the corridor. This was an old neighborhood and there was no elevator, but fortunately the floor where the Bai family lived was not high, on the third floor, so it was convenient to go up and down the stairs.

The Bai family has lived here for twenty or thirty years and knows all the neighbors. They had just taken a few steps when a middle-aged woman carrying vegetables came towards them.

Surprise flashed in her eyes, and she turned to gossip: "Zi Ling, aren't you getting married today? Why are you back?"

As she spoke, she circled around Nathan, who was standing beside Hannah Bai. She looked so noble, worthy of being the eldest son of a wealthy family.

She had never seen Lucas Chu and thought it was Nathan.

"All the relatives came to my house and asked my husband to come and recognize them." Hannah Bai made up an excuse.

"Oh, I thought she had a quarrel and went back to her parents' home on the first day of her wedding."

It's bad enough that her words were offensive, but the key point is that she looked disappointed when she said it.

Hannah Bai forced a fake smile. She was too lazy to talk to this person and said directly: "How could it be? I don't have the ability to quarrel with my husband's family like Sister Jia. Besides, my husband has a good temper, so I can't quarrel even if I want to."

Sister Jia is the daughter of the woman in front of him. She inherited her violent temper and gossipy mouth. She would make a fuss at her husband’s house if she was not satisfied with something, and even fight in serious cases.

The woman's face darkened, and after Hannah Bai and Nathan left, she spat, "Isn't it just marrying well? What are you so proud of?"

Here, Hannah Bai explained to Nathan: "The aunt just now lives on the fourth floor. She loves to gossip. If I don't confront her, she will turn around and tell others that I was dumped..."

After saying just one word, Hannah Bai suddenly laughed sarcastically, almost forgetting that she was indeed abandoned.

She didn't know what she was thinking about. She clenched her teeth, glanced quickly at the man beside her, and lowered her head quickly. Her hair hid the thoughts in her eyes.

She knew that it was not kind to do so, and even seemed ungrateful and like the farmer and the snake, but...

Nathan looked at the little girl beside him. With her parents not around, she no longer concealed her emotions, and she was surrounded by a feeling of frustration and inconsolable sorrow.

While walking towards the gate of the community, Hannah Bai sighed thirty-five times and looked at him fifteen times as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

If she didn't say anything, Nathan would pretend not to know.

Hannah Bai: "Where do you live? I'll take you home first."

"Bin Jing." the man answered.

This place is the hotel where the wedding is being held today. It is one of the best in S City, and it is only because the Chu family is well-off that they can afford to hold the wedding banquet here.

Hannah Bai's eyes moved slightly, his black pupils were bright and clear.

Nathan raised his eyebrows calmly as he watched. Based on his current understanding of Hannah Bai, she was probably planning something unknown in her little head at this moment.

"You are in S city on a business trip, right? When will you return to A city?" Hannah Bai asked casually.

"About half a month."

I saw that the little girl's eyes became brighter, and it seemed as if thousands of shooting stars were flashing in her eyes.

But she deliberately frowned and said, "How expensive is it to stay in a hotel for so long? How about you stay at my house? I'm the only one at home, so I won't charge you rent."

Live in her house?

His expression remained unchanged. "It's not appropriate for a man and a woman to live together. We are not familiar with each other..."

Hannah Bai said seriously, "We are both married, so why wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to live together? Besides, it is precisely because we are unfamiliar with each other that we need to get to know each other better!"

Nathan stopped and he probably knew what Hannah Bai was planning.

Hannah Bai hugged his arms tightly, "Brother, wuwuwu brother, I know I am shameless, annoying, and a dog-skin plaster..."

In the blink of an eye, her eyes were filled with tears, and the tears flowed uncontrollably. Her eyes were red and she cried so pitifully.

"I know you are a good person. You helped me to hold the place and deal with my relatives. I am very grateful to you. I want to kneel down and kowtow to you."

First belittle yourself, then praise the other person, Hannah Bai does this skillfully and naturally.

"Wow, I am a rogue, I am shameless, brother, we are married after all, can you help me again?"

Finally her little fox tail was revealed.

In the past, Nathan hated people who plotted against him the most. Those who dared to plot against him always ended up with a bad ending.

But now, looking at Hannah Bai's round and small face, and her pitiful appearance with tears in her eyes and a red nose, he remembered the little girl he bullied in his childhood. He was ignorant at that time, and when he grew up, he often felt guilty.

Looking at the face that was similar to the one in his memory, Nathan felt powerless. It was obvious that the person he bullied was not Hannah Bai, so why did he still feel guilty towards her when looking at her?

Helplessly, she said, "Let me go first and wipe your tears, and we'll talk slowly."
