Chapter 8: Embarrassing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At that time, someone bullied Hu Ke and called her Little Mute. Wen Huai had a hero’s heart since she was young. Naturally, she could not stand people bullying the weak, so he invited Hu Ke to play every day. If someone bullied Hu Ke, she would hit them back. As time passed, the two of them became familiar with each other and their friendship lasted for 20 years.

After graduating from university, Wen Huai did not take over her family’s business. She left this burden to her younger brother, Wen Jin, and opened a bar called 1943.

In the beginning, she had pulled Hu Ke into the group because she thought that the two of them were familiar with each other and could play together. However, she did not expect that although Hu Ke’s voice was weak, her taste buds were top-notch.

She was especially sensitive to alcohol. In just a year, she stood out from all the bartenders in Beijing. “1943” was also famous because of Hu Ke. It became the largest and most famous bar in Beijing.

Wen Huai was waiting for Hu Ke at the door. As soon as they met, she gave her a hug. Then, she looked at Hu Ke, who was so angry that he was like a pufferfish, and teased, “Who provoked my eldest daughter? Look, your little mouth can even curl up.”

Hu Ke finally relaxed in front of her good friend. She hugged Wen Huai tiredly and buried her face in her shoulder.

Seeing her like this, Wen Huai did not ask further. She patted her shoulder and pulled her into the bar.

“You came at the right time. The new batch of alcohol I bought earlier has arrived. You can try it out and see if you can develop a new product.”

At this moment, Bai Xiao was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. When had he ever suffered such a huge grievance? Someone had drugged him and caused him to marry a scheming woman. He had even compensated 10 million yuan as a betrothal gift.

Logically speaking, this woman should thank him for marrying her and helping the Hu family. In the end? After saying a few words, he was even slapped. Bai Xiao was so angry that he spun around the room. Suddenly, the feeling under his feet became strange. It was a piece of paper.

Bai Xiao did not remember that his things had fallen to the ground. He picked up the paper and realized that it was a handwritten agreement. The handwriting on it was neat and clean, but if one looked carefully, one could see the sharp edge of the pen.

This was not his handwriting. Bai Xiao frowned and quickly browsed through the content. It was written by Hu Ke regarding the agreement between the two of them in the future.

It mentioned that during the ten months of pregnancy and the confinement period after giving birth, Bai Xiao needed to provide shelter and necessities. After the confinement period, Hu Ke would immediately leave the house with nothing and leave the child to the Bai family.

Bai Xiao could not help but laugh after reading the contract that could be said to be beneficial to him.

He was not stupid enough to think that a woman who had spent so much effort to marry into a rich family would really give up everything willingly.

Humans had seven emotions and six desires. How could they not ask for anything? Especially a person who could sell her body for a purpose. She did not even cherish himself. How could she willingly give up everything?

“Interesting. You were squatting at the door of my room to stuff this into it, right? Do you want to wait for me to finish watching before talking about getting along peacefully? This woman is quite good at playing hard to get.”

Bai Xiao smiled disdainfully and casually threw the piece of paper to the side. The next moment, he received a message from his good brother, Zhang Rong.

Zhang Rong: “Brother Bai, what are you doing? Come out and play!”

[Bai Xiao: Alright, I just wanted to relax. Where are you?]

[Zhang Rong: Have you been possessed? This is the first time you’ve been so straightforward. Bar 1943, but I’ll make it clear in advance that you’ll pay the bill.]

[Bai Xiao: You asked me to come out and you want me to foot the bill?]

[Zhang Rong: I offended the old man two days ago, so I’m out of pocket money this month. Brother Bai, please treat me this time. I’ll make up for it next month!]

[Bai Xiao: Okay, double next time]

After the two of them agreed, Bai Xiao planned to go out. He was really frustrated. Instead of staying at home, it was better to go out and relax.

Bian Fang had been guarding the door since Hu Ke left. When she saw Bai Xiao come out, she was about to go forward and ask what was going on when she saw the injury on Bai Xiao’s face.

“Young Master, wait a moment. I’ll go get an ice pack.” Bian Fang hurriedly went to get the first aid kit, but Bai Xiao didn’t think much of it. He called out to Bian Fang to stop and said that he would be going out.

After Bai Xiao and Zhang Rong met, he realized what a mistake he had made. Zhang Rongxian stared at his face in disbelief for a long time before bursting into laughter.
