By the time Shen Liangchuan came out from the shower, he realized that Qiao Lian was not in the room.

He frowned slightly and searched for her for a while, before walking out of the room and heading downstairs.

As he went down the stairs, he saw Xia Yehua discussing with Auntie Li about what they should do in the days to come.

Auntie Li was fifty this year. She had remained unwed and had been serving her all along.

“In the days to come, we will reduce our intake of imported beef. When it comes to buying vegetables, we can drive to the local market. It will be cheaper than purchasing items from the supermarket. If we go early in the morning, we will be able to pick the freshest vegetables.”

Auntie Li nodded.

Xia Yehua continued speaking, “I recalled that back then, when we first left the Shen Family, we led a difficult life. But now, we will not be going back to that situation. Even if we were to face the same kind of situation, it’s alright as we are all adults now.”

Auntie Li continued nodding.

Xia Yehua spoke again, “Do you think that Xiao Qiao will leave Shen Liangchuan now that he is penniless?”

Auntie Li: ...

Shen Liangchuan: ...

“Ah, I haven’t had the chance to carry my plump grandson yet. We must be nicer to Xiao Qiao in the future.”

Auntie Li: ...

Shen Liangchuan was absolutely speechless.

While he was downstairs, he searched around the villa but he couldn’t see Qiao Lian. He then enquired, “Where is Qiao Lian?”

“She has just gone out.”

Shen Liangchuan frowned and was stunned at these words.

Gone out?

Where could she have gone to?

Shen Liangchuan picked up his cell phone and gave her a call. The call was connected. “Where are you going to?”

Qiao Lian answered with a stammer, “Oh, you will know in a while.”

That guilty tone rendered Shen Liangchua speechless.

After he hung up the phone, he waited for a while at home before he saw Qiao Lian coming home with several small and huge bags of items.

Her hands were carrying bags of vegetables that she had bought at the market. When she entered the house, she left the bags on the floor, took out a little notebook and started writing on it.

After that, she ran into the kitchen and studied it for a while. Then, she came out and silently went upstairs.

Everyone: ...

Xia Yehua was utterly shocked. “Has Xiao Qiao been triggered by something?”

Shen Liangchuan took a glance at Xia Yehua. “I’ll take a look upstairs.”

When he reached upstairs, he went into the master bedroom and saw that Qiao Lian was still busy writing in the notebook. He didn’t know what she was writing.

Shen Liangchuan took a step forward.

He then saw that she so extremely distressed that she sighed.

Shen Liangchuan stretched out his hand to place it on her shoulder. “What happened?”

Qiao Lian raised her head, drew out a bank card from her pocket and placed it on Shen Liangchuan’s hand. “This is my salary for the past few months. I haven’t really spent much from it. It isn’t that much money.”

Shen Liangchuan was stunned.

Qiao Lian stood up with a solemn look on her face. She looked at Shen Liangchuan and said, “Zi Chuan, I know that it is because of me that you are facing pressures that you have never experienced before. If I were a saint, I would have left you in order to free you from this disaster. However, I am not one. I am very selfish. I want to be with you. We have missed eight years together and I certainly do not wish to live the days ahead without you. I won’t let you fumble the ball, but there are only a few things that I can do.”

“Now, the only thing that I can do is to walk together with you through this crisis. If you really go bankrupt, we shall face the future together. I have just studied the prices of vegetables and I realized that vegetables from the wet market are indeed much cheaper than in the supermarket. We will be able to save a lot of money with this. We can also cut down costs by not having a servant. From now on, I will be the one to cook for the family.”

Shen Liangchuan looked at her, touched. He spoke after a while, “Do you know how to cook?”

Qiao Lian: ...
