Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

As night falls, the city's neon lights gradually illuminate like dazzling jewels.

It shimmered with colorful lights, giving the entire city a dazzling appearance.

As usual, Qin Min rode his newly purchased motorcycle through the city's streets and alleys.

A short while later, Qin Min arrived at the Hunan restaurant where his wife, Chen Xiumei, worked.

Inside the Hunan cuisine restaurant, the lighting is soft, and warm light shines into every corner.

The waiters were sitting around the tables, looking quite relaxed, indicating that business was still slow.

When Qin Min's motorcycle stopped in front of the store, all the staff couldn't help but look at him.

"Brother Qin, you're here!"

A young waitress greeted us with a warm smile.

Qin Min smiled and nodded in response, his gaze quickly sweeping across the crowd.

They quickly found Chen Xiumei peeling garlic.

However, unlike usual.

When Chen Xiumei heard the noise and looked up at Qin Min, she did not show the happy smile she used to.

Instead, she turned her head away indifferently, as if she hadn't seen him at all.

This scene greatly surprised the waitresses.

They all stopped what they were doing and began to whisper among themselves.

"Did this young couple have some kind of argument?"

One of the waiters whispered, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Another waiter lowered his voice and said, "Maybe so, but what couple doesn't argue?"

"Sister Xiumei should be more magnanimous; it's not easy to find a good husband like that these days."

"Yes, he's so considerate, always picking up and dropping off Sister Xiumei from get off work on time every day."

"I wish I had a husband like that."

Qin Min didn't bother to listen to what the other waitresses were saying.

Seeing Chen Xiumei's reaction, he felt a pang of anxiety.

A feeling of unease welled up inside me.

But Qin Min forced a smile and went inside.

"Honey, I've come to pick you up from get off work. Let's go home."

Chen Xiumei stood up expressionlessly, and Qin Min quickly went to her side.

The two approached the motorcycle.

With a forced smile, Qin Min helped Chen Xiumei onto the back of the motorcycle before getting on himself.

This time, Chen Xiumei did not hug Qin Min from behind as usual.

Instead, he held onto the base railings on both sides, keeping a certain distance between himself and Qin Min.

The two remained silent the entire way, with only the sound of the motorcycle engine echoing in the night sky.

It seemed to be telling the story of the estrangement between them.

Back home, Qin Min parked his motorcycle and went upstairs with Chen Xiumei.

After closing the door, Chen Xiumei sat on the sofa with her face turned away, still looking angry.

Qin Min looked at his wife, feeling irritated and annoyed.

But he dared not turn against his father, because he was only the deputy section chief of the tobacco bureau, while his father-in-law was the deputy director.

Although they are not in the same system, his rank is much lower than his father-in-law's.

Unless he can be promoted to section chief and become the head of the sales section of the Nanjiang County Tobacco Bureau.

Qin Min knew why his wife Chen Xiumei was acting this way, so he quickly took out his bankbook from his pocket and sat down next to her.

He handed the passbook to Chen Xiumei.

"Honey, look what this is!"

Chen Xiumei turned around curiously and was surprised to find it was a passbook.

"Honey, didn't I tell you before? We lost our savings book because of our plan to buy a house."

"I have now expedited the replacement of the lost passbook."

"Open it and take a look."

Qin Min maintained the expression of a good husband, smiling ingratiatingly.

Chen Xiumei took the passbook with a look of three parts surprise and seven parts doubt.

Upon opening it, the first line of the first page read 3000 yuan.

However, there was no previous record, but the deposit was 1000 yuan more than Chen Xiumei had expected, which was 2000 yuan.

Especially when she saw the name on the bankbook, it was indeed her husband Qin Min's name.

Chen Xiumei immediately felt guilty.

"Honey, I'm sorry."

“I shouldn’t have suspected you of spending all the family savings, and I shouldn’t have asked you for the bankbook to look at.”

Chen Xiumei looked at Qin Min apologetically and began to apologize.

His voice was filled with regret.

Qin Min breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Xiumei believed the story about the bankbook.

The money in this passbook is certainly not the same money that was originally in the passbook.

This was Qin Min who, by taking advantage of his position as deputy section chief of the tobacco bureau, embezzled a sum of money that the sales department was responsible for.

A passbook that was hastily made.

Now that Chen Xiumei believes this, that's all the better.

He'll transfer the money back to the tobacco bureau in a couple of days, and then there won't be any problems at home or at work.

He gambled outside, kept a mistress, and even had an illegitimate child.

That way, it won't be exposed.

Qin Min felt very relieved.

"Honey, don't say that. It was my fault for being so careless and making you worry."

“This money originally belonged to our family, so you can rest assured.”

"I will be more careful in the future and will not lose my passbook again, so that you will not worry again."

Qin Min spoke insincerely, but inwardly he was quite pleased with himself.

Luckily, I'm smart and came up with this idea.

Otherwise, the house would be turned upside down.

Chen Xiumei was deeply moved by Qin Min's words.

She felt she had wronged Qin Min and felt somewhat guilty.

"Honey, I really didn't mean to doubt you."

"But I'm pregnant, and it will cost a lot of money in the near future."

"You know, there are places to spend money everywhere these days, and I'm getting a little anxious."

Chen Xiumei's face was full of apology.

"I know, honey. It's all my fault. I didn't put your mind at ease."

"I will work harder in the future to make our lives better and better."

Qin Min spoke gently, and lightly took Chen Xiumei's hand.

Chen Xiumei finally smiled, clutching the savings book in her hand, and leaning on Qin Min's shoulder.

Once again, a happy expression appeared on her face.

Deep down, she harbored a slight resentment towards her younger brother, Chen Dong.

If it weren't for her younger brother's words, she would never have doubted her husband.

However, Dongzi was only thinking of himself, while Chen Xiumei didn't think too much about it.

After about a minute or two, Chen Xiumei got up with a smile and went to the kitchen.

Preparing to cook.

In no time, the couple reconciled.

The sounds of chopping and stir-frying came from the kitchen.

It seemed to be the rhythm of their lives; though there had been ups and downs, it continued nonetheless.

The next day, the sun was shining and the breeze was gentle.

It gives people a warm and comfortable feeling.

At school, Chen Dong studied diligently with Chu Mengran and Guo Miao.

Even though Shen Yue was with Hu Yanghui, who was grinning foolishly, deliberately showing off how good his sycophant was to him.

Chen Dong ignored her completely, and there was no need for him to even glance at Shen Yue.

Shen Yue was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

After school in the afternoon, Chen Dong, Chu Mengran, and Guo Miao had dinner in the cafeteria.

I rode my bicycle to the Hunan restaurant to find my older sister, Chen Xiumei.
