Time Travel: Conditional Wealth

After several days of train travel, Lu Jinan and Xiao Yan got off the train safely. If they didn't get to their destination, they would be so hungry that they would have to chew their own thighs.

It was also the first time that Lu Jinan knew that Xiao Yan had such a big appetite. He Xi prepared a week's worth of food for the two of them, but Xiao Yan ate it all in three days. At the end, he complained that He Xi was stingy and prepared too little food.

Listen to what you said, how heartless! Free food is not enough.

"Finally I got off the bus. I'm so tired."

"Shouldn't you say you're almost dying of stuffiness?" Lu Jinan asked back with a cold face.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "What should we do when we get back? What should we eat?"

Lu Jinan glanced over and said, "What do you think?"

Just when the two were still discussing what to eat, the clear sound of a horn not far away attracted their attention.

"Drip-"

A military jeep with its hazard lights on drove towards the two men and slowly stopped in front of them.

Lu Yunshen pulled the handbrake, resting his left arm on the car door with the window rolled down, looking surprised: "Why didn't you call me when you got back? Just the two of you? Where's your wife?"

Lu Jinan looked at He Zhien in the passenger seat with a dark face: "His father is anxious to ask them to go home."

Hearing this, He Zhien curled her lips and laughed: "Did you send them to the train?"

Lu Jinan was stunned for a moment and said, "No."

"That's it. He Fei can go home but He Xi can't. Who knows where they are right now, grinning from ear to ear."

At this moment, Lu Jinan’s face was gloomy: “This little liar.”

"what?"

The three of them saw that Lu Jinan had a bad face and didn't know what to say. They simply put their luggage in the car and went home.

Lu family.

Mother Lu sat on the sofa and tried out the new facial mask that He Xi had mailed to her last time. Yesterday, other wives of officials praised her for her good skin, so she wanted to keep up the good work and leave them far behind.

Father Lu frowned and sighed, "Can't you spare some time to look at me? Every day there is nothing but beauty."

Hearing this, Mother Lu paused for a moment, then went back to her own business: "Didn't you pursue me because I was pretty?"

Father Lu: "..."

Am I that kind of person?

Mother Lu used the remaining facial mask liquid to nourish her hands: "Don't doubt that you are it."

Father Lu: "..."

The living room fell silent, and the door was suddenly pushed open. At the same time, the voice of the eldest son, who should have been in the army, came from the door: "Look who's back."

Lu's mother was surprised that her youngest son had returned, but where was his fiancée, He Xi, who was supposed to be by his side?

"Are you the only one coming back?"

Lu Jinan looked lazy: "Didn't you see everything? Why do you have to stab me with a knife?"

Mother Lu choked: "What's wrong with her? Did you have a fight?"

Lu Jinan lowered his eyes: "Mom, you hope we can be better!"

"I..." Mother Lu turned around to wash her hands, "Mom Liu, please add some food tonight."

"Hey." Aunt Liu came out of the kitchen and wiped her hands with an apron. "The young master is back. Why isn't Miss He Xi here?"

Lu Jinan: "..."

Please stop stabbing him.

Mother Liu looked at Mother Lu who came out of the bathroom in confusion: "I think... I said something wrong."

Father Lu was depressed just now, but now that his youngest son is treated worse than him, his mood suddenly brightened: "You are right, you are right, it's the boy's own problem, his wife doesn't want him anymore."

"Ah?" Aunt Liu looked anxious. "What's going on? Our three young masters are all very good-looking and have excellent family backgrounds. How could anyone not want them?"

Father Lu continued to exaggerate and stir up trouble: "Yeah, I don't know why, I guess it must be because he has a bad temper."

"Oh, that's right."

Seeing her husband and Liu's mother bullying their youngest son, Mother Lu couldn't help but defend him: "He's already giving you a hard time, just let him go. What if his wife has killed him?"

"No points?" Liu's mother realized that she was being used by Lu's father, and glared at him angrily, "There will be no dinner for you tonight, go back to your duty."

Father Lu paused, thinking that as the head of the family, he had too low a status.

Lu Jinan pinched his brows and said tiredly, "I'm tired. I'll go upstairs and take a nap."

The three sons' rooms have been cleaned all the time, especially recently when they knew they were about to have summer vacation, so they specially asked someone to clean them, but they didn't expect that Lu Jinan would come back alone.

Lu Jinan took a shower and then sat on the sofa downstairs to make a phone call to He Xi who was far away in Harbin. The phone rang for a while but no one answered. She must have gone home. After all, it was true that He's father urged them to go home.

Just as the call was about to be hung up: "Hello, who is this?"

Lu Jinan's eyes were deep. After a few seconds, he sighed, "You haven't gone home yet?"

He Xi's hand holding the phone became nervous unconsciously. How could she forget not to answer the call? Not many people knew the phone number, and she knew who was calling without thinking. Her hands were faster than her brain, and she was careless.

He Xi hesitated for a moment and began to explain: "My sister wanted to buy a store, but you know Xiao Yan wouldn't agree. He doesn't have the money, so I bought a stake."

"Invest? Why is your life not yours? You still have extra money for investment. Is your crisis over?" Lu Jinan roared. If someone could see it at this moment, they could even see the blue veins on his clenched wrists.

When He Xi heard him yelling at her, she actually felt warm in her heart. He really cared about her and was concerned about her, not He Xi. He Xi did not dare to speak and just listened to him scolding her.

After waiting for a while, Lu Jinan asked He Xi: "Are you talking? Did you put the phone aside?"

"No, no." He Xi quickly denied it, otherwise he would suffer when he came back. "I was listening to my husband's lecture. I was in the wrong and dared not say a word."

The word "husband" was still very useful to Lu Jinan, and his attitude softened a lot: "What are you going to do next?"

He Xi looked in the living room to make sure He Fei didn't go downstairs, and told him her plan: "Jiang Hao said that he needs food recently. It just so happens that this batch of food is ripe, and Wang Qiang can also sell a batch of food."

"Why?"

Finished, call the full name!

"How much did you spend on the store?"

He Xi didn't dare to answer, but Lu Jinan kept asking her: "Tell me, I won't beat you when I get home."

He could clearly hear He Xi swallowing her saliva, and it was not difficult to guess how much she spent: "Fifty thousand?"

"No, no, just..." The more she spoke, the lower her voice became, so low that she couldn't even hear it, "30,000."

Lu Jinan felt like he had something stuck in his throat, and after a while he spoke, "Okay, you're really great."

"Eh, no, I..." A long "beep, beep, beep" sound came from the phone.

He Xi sat on the sofa and sighed. What should he do now that the remedy had failed?

The system couldn't listen any longer and a text message popped up to remind her: "You have a random door."

Yes, I will go to apologize to him in the evening.

What clothes should I wear?
