69: Chapter 69 High-Quality Human Women

"When it comes to married women and young matrons, what's the first thing that comes to mind?"

Facing his childhood friend's question, Zhao Xiaoshuai revealed a profound gaze full of lingering thoughts, and only after a long while did he speak: "Very soft, very supple."

Liu Ming laughed and punched him, "I'm talking to you seriously!"

Zhao Xiaoshuai dodged with a smile, "What's the matter, have you also picked up Prime Minister Cao's bad habit recently?"

Today is New Year's Eve. The fitness center is only open for half a day. He has already kissed Meng Yawen goodbye, and his Sister-in-law is also preparing to go back to her hometown for the New Year.

Zhao Xiaoshuai bought a trunk full of New Year goods, but he was in no hurry to go home.

Going back so early, his parents would definitely find out about him losing his job right away, and there would inevitably be a round of nagging.

However, he wouldn't hide it; he was just dragging it out for as long as he could.

In the midst of his leisure, his childhood friend Liu Ming happened to come over to relieve his boredom.

Liu Ming had also been worried recently that his childhood friend's mental state might not be good after losing his job and his girlfriend, so as soon as he had some free time, he couldn't wait to come and see him.

Seeing that his complexion was good and his expression was relaxed and at ease, he finally felt relieved.

At this moment, Liu Ming heard Zhao Xiaoshuai's teasing, but didn't refute it, "Recently, brother, I've taken a liking to a woman. She's two years older than me. Her ex-husband died in a car accident a long time ago, and she raised her child alone; it hasn't been easy for her."

"But she is a good woman."

Zhao Xiaoshuai became interested, "You have a story here. How about some wine?"

Liu Ming hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, I have another round later. I need to save my strength. Let's have a good drink after the New Year!"

"It's almost New Year's Eve, and you're still not resting?"

"Sigh, it's all about human relationships and worldly affairs. There is no such thing as 'easy' in the adult world."

Zhao Xiaoshuai thought of his own recent life, touched his nose, and felt too embarrassed to continue the conversation.

Liu Ming briefly talked about his story with the woman named Cui Jinlian, but it was just an ordinary story of a big boss and a female subordinate.

"When young, one doesn't know the goodness of young matrons, wrongly treating young girls as treasures."

"Only these young matrons truly cherish and understand you. They have tasted the bitterness of society, know the hardships of life, and cherish every relationship more."

"They won't be like my ex-wife, who could share the joys but not the hardships. Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest; the moment I fell on hard times, she just swooped away."

Zhao Xiaoshuai thought about his own ex-girlfriend, who was much the same, but he probably wouldn't experience that kind of thing again in the future.

After all, he would never have a time of falling on hard times again.

"How far have you two gotten?"

"She thinks that because she is a widow who brings bad luck to her husbands and has a child in tow, she isn't good enough for me. I'm still working on her psychological construction."

"So what if she's a widow? I'm not someone who believes in fate, and I'm not afraid of her bad luck! We can have more children, and I will treat her child as my own!"

Zhao Xiaoshuai was a little hesitant about whether or not to gift "Divine Favor" to his childhood friend.

He had already found his true love. Once he also became extremely, extremely wealthy, would he become as fickle as himself?

Was this helping him or hurting him?

After considering it for a long time, he still decided to gift "Divine Favor" to his childhood friend. He shouldn't be the one to decide the future for his friend.

Any outcome should be chosen by himself.

"Let's stop chatting; I have to rush to the next event. Let's have a good drink after the New Year."

Zhao Xiaoshuai called out to Liu Ming, who was about to leave, and picked up the cola on the table to pour him a glass:

"Drink this, and from now on, everything will go smoothly for you, as if you have divine help!"

"Is this an early New Year's blessing? You certainly have plenty of tricks." Liu Ming didn't think much of it, downed it in one gulp, and waved his hand as a farewell.

[Divine Favor (Used)]

Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't know what kind of power the so-called "Divine Favor" could actually have, and he was full of anticipation for it.

...

...

In Chu Xinyi's rented apartment.

"Xinyi, are you packed yet? The car we booked is almost downstairs."

"I can leave at any time."

Recently, Chu Ziqing hadn't been very happy. It was one thing to be angered by that ex-boyfriend she had kicked to the curb.

A few days ago, she was even left alone at the ski resort by the tall, rich, and handsome boyfriend she had painstakingly cultivated for a year.

Afterward, he even blocked her!

No matter what reason he had, she would never forgive him this time!

Because that very same day, she met a "kind-hearted" tourist who drove her home, and they even exchanged Weixun.

She could tell that even though that person was a bit older than Shen Lang, his attire, manner of speaking, and the car he drove were all a bit better than Shen Lang's.

'Sure enough, a high-quality woman like me will never lack a partner. I just need to choose the most suitable one.'

Therefore, although she "didn't know why" she had suddenly lost a relationship she had cultivated for a long time, she didn't care.

Out with the old, in with the new.

Remembering the unhappiness her ex-boyfriend had brought her, she seemed to have just remembered something and asked her younger sister:

"By the way, I broke up with Zhao Xiaoshuai. He hasn't come to harass you recently, has he?"

"No."

Chu Xinyi replied to her sister without changing her expression.

She had long since deduced that her brother-in-law had already broken up with her through a series of details like her sister's Weixun profile picture and Moments.

If she really had to wait for Chu Ziqing, the person involved, to announce this, it would have been too late.

"Remember, if he comes to pester you, asking for money or something, just ignore him. If he goes too far, call the police."

"Mm."

"Also, if he comes to you crying and asking for my new contact information, you must not give it to him. It's impossible for him and me now."

"Mm."

"By the way, he used to pay the rent for this place, right? You'll have to pay it yourself from now on. Do you still have money? If you don't, ask your sister for some."

"I still have some."

Although Chu Ziqing asked "perfunctorily," she didn't even bother to ask where her younger sister, a high school senior, got the money or how much she had.

One could say she was careless, or one could say that she didn't actually care that much deep down.

"Huh, did you buy these cigarettes and alcohol here?"

"Yeah, Dad likes them. I bought them with money I earned from my part-time job."

Looking at her innocent-looking younger sister, Chu Ziqing didn't think too much about it. Items worth a few thousand yuan weren't hard to come by with a little effort.

Although even if she officially started working after the New Year, a month's salary might not be enough to buy them.

"That's perfect. I forgot to buy New Year's goods, and these things of yours will be enough."

"Sister, since you've gotten a secure government job now, when are you going to bring Dad to live in the city?"

Facing her younger sister's question, Chu Ziqing's body stiffened; clearly, she hadn't considered this issue yet.

She was currently thinking every day about how to live better and how to get all the things she wanted.

However, this matter was simple too; as long as she found a rich husband, everything could be solved.

"Civil servant salaries are very low; how would I have money to buy a house? Once I find a rich boyfriend to marry, all of this will be very simple."

"Oh."

Chu Xinyi replied indifferently.
