“She resigned?”
Jian Changsheng frowned and looked at the waiter in surprise.
The waiter nodded weakly. “Yes… It has almost been a week.”
However, he was just a small waiter. Even though he knew that Manager Wang had resigned, he did not know the reason.
Jian Changsheng’s mind was in a mess. He thought that since Meizi was the manager of Yaochi now, her life with the children wouldn’t be too hard.
However, he did not expect Wang Yunmei to resign. Could it be because of his sudden appearance? Did she abandon such a high-paying job to avoid him?
It was no wonder that Jian Changsheng thought too highly of himself. Wang Yunmei’s educational background was not high. Although she was strong and willing to do things, she was very stubborn. The general manager of Yaochi made an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of yuan. With her qualifications and abilities, it was not easy for her to get to this position. She should not have resigned so easily.
Now that he had reunited with her, Jian Changsheng was even more convinced that Wang Yunmei had left because of him.
He could not help but feel upset and guilty. Although his reunion with Meizi was an accident, he should not have pestered her that day. Perhaps, it wouldn’t have caused too much worry for her.
The two of them had been separated for more than ten years, and he had always held the attitude of not disturbing them. Both of them had brand new lives.
At this moment, Meizi was probably afraid that he would disrupt her and the children’s lives, so she deliberately avoided him.
Jian Changsheng thought for a moment. But little did he know that to Wang Yunmei, an annual salary of three hundred thousand yuan was much more important than him. This matter had nothing to do with him.
…
When she reached home at night, Jian Ai saw the lights in the house outside the yard and knew that Chen Jin had returned.
When she entered the yard, the faint fragrance of food came from the house. Jian Ai smiled in her heart and pushed the door open.
At this time, four dishes had already been laid out on the dining table. Stir-fried eggs with tomatoes, sour and spicy shredded potatoes, braised pork ribs, and stir-fried pork with chili. Just as Chen Jin had said, they were all home-cooked dishes, but the fragrance from his cooking assaulted the nostrils. Just looking at the colors, it was very appetizing.
As if he had heard the door open, Chen Jin poked his head out of the kitchen. When he saw Jian Ai, he smiled and said, “There’s also soup. It’ll be ready soon.”
With just a glance, Jian Ai realized that Chen Jin’s hair had been dyed black. Not only that but it had also been styled into short hair. Although he couldn’t be said to be handsome, he looked clean and refreshing. He was also much more stable and pleasing to the eye.
She went to the bathroom to wash her hands. Chen Jin was carrying soup out of the kitchen. He immediately said in a casual tone, “Is Auntie’s body okay?”
Jian Ai sat down at the table and nodded. “Pretty good.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai looked at Chen Jin. Seeing that he was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, she asked, “Did you go to buy clothes today?”
Chen Jin smiled in embarrassment. “Yes, I bought two sets. I also bought a pair of shoes and some daily necessities. I know an especially cheap place, so I spent only more than a hundred yuan on these things. I still have a few dozen yuan left.”
He couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows at Jian Ai smugly.
Jian Ai could not help but laugh. She shook her head with a smile and randomly picked up a mouthful of food. Her eyes immediately lit up.
Delicious!
Although it was not as good as Chi Yang’s Michelin food, it was much more delicious than those from ordinary home-cooked restaurants. One could tell with just a look that the sour and spicy shredded potatoes were fried with white vinegar, which suited her taste.
“Not bad, right?” Chen Jin’s eyes lit up. Although he was asking a question, he was very confident.
