Chapter 344 - 344 344 Land Deed
?Chapter 344: Chapter 344 Land Deed Chapter 344: Chapter 344 Land Deed Bai Xiao put the property deed into her bag; since she was planning to leave, it was only natural to prepare in advance and to inform her sister and brother-in-law.
Without any surprises, she was ready to buy a bus ticket today.
Sooner or later she’d have to leave, so why stay and make her sister and brother-in-law feel sad when they saw her?
She hadn’t told An Zhiyuan yet and planned to call him tonight.
He would definitely be training now, and a call would only distract him.
Besides, if she told him now, An Zhiyuan might immediately realize that it was his stepmother’s doing.
Who knew what might erupt then?
However, she wasn’t going to consider Wei Shufen; because of An Zhiyuan, she had to travel to the frontier, to protect the country. Since Wei Shufen dared to act, she naturally had to bear the consequences herself.
She then took a bus to the hotpot restaurant.
At this time, the hotpot restaurant hadn’t started business yet.
When she arrived, everyone was bustling with work. Bai Yue and Wang Yan were relatively free; this was probably the easiest time of the day for them as a couple, and they were shoulder to shoulder at the bar, tallying accounts.
Wang Yan had his arm around Bai Yue’s shoulders, their bodies close together. The couple lived harmoniously, and along with their three good sons, Wang Yan also got along well with the boys. The burdens of life didn’t seem as difficult as imagined; the couple was now living comfortably and their affection for each other had deepened.
It seemed to be oiled by sweet honey.
Bai Yue, who was smiling, looked much better than before, seemingly younger by more than a decade. Although wrinkles still lined her eyes, her complexion was rosy, and her lips were always curled in a smile, radiating the refreshing fragrance of spring plum when she laughed, full of dependency and affection when she looked at Wang Yan.
Compared to the battered Bai Yue of the past, she was now entirely different.
“Big sister, brother-in-law!”
Bai Xiao’s voice interrupted the couple’s intimacy, feeling a bit out of place.
Her big sister had finally found happiness, the greatest fulfillment of her life. Her sister was entirely different from her former self, and Bai Xiao hoped she would always remain happy.
Seeing her younger sister arrive, Bai Yue blushed, feeling a bit unnatural – they were just talking about their future plans and had perhaps let their guard down. She worried if her sister saw too much, would she be a laughingstock?
“Xiao, come in, how come you’re free today? Shouldn’t you be at work this time?” Bai Yue pulled Bai Xiao in and threw a glance at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan chuckled and greeted his sister-in-law, “Little Aunt, you chat with your sister. I’m going to help out with the work.”
And he quickly excused himself.
Bai Xiao laughed, “Look at brother-in-law now, he’s under complete wife control!”
Bai Yue tapped her forehead. It looked hard, but she was actually very gentle, barely more than a mosquito bite.
“There you go joking again. I’m asking you why you’re here now? Shouldn’t you be at the hospital? Is there some trouble?”
This younger sister was usually very busy; Bai Yue always had to bring food to visit her. It had been two or three months since Bai Xiao had come over.
Considering the time, it should have been her working hours, yet here she was.
“Sister, I’ve brought you something, and there’s also something I need to tell you.”
Bai Xiao opened her bag, took out the property deed, and handed it to Bai Yue.
Bai Yue looked at Bai Xiao questioningly and took the property deed, unfolding it to look, her mouth agape as if she could swallow an egg whole.
“Property deed? Where did you get this from?”
Bai Yue wasn’t uneducated; she had finished middle school at least.
She understood the words on the document. This deed was for the property where their restaurant was located, and not just for one restaurant, but for the entire street.
