Chapter 312: Chapter 301 Choices Are Important Chapter 312: Chapter 301 Choices Are Important Aunt Mei sensed something was amiss and said to Lu Jiaxin, “Miss Cousin, don’t be in such a hurry. The old lady’s mind hasn’t fully recovered yet; she doesn’t remember many things. Give her some more time. Rest assured, I will persuade the old lady.”

Lu Jiaxin wasn’t in a hurry, but rather somewhat annoyed, “Then you’d better take good care of her, I’m leaving.”

At one point, Guh Haifan came over and said to her, “Cousin, could you please help me sell an apartment? That way, I would have money for tutoring.”

Lu Jiaxin adjusted her emotions and said, “Didn’t I tell you before? Aunt has set aside an education fund for us, which includes tuition, miscellaneous fees, and the cost of tutoring, so there’s no need for you to sell the apartment.”

“Really?”

Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, “Of course it’s true. By the way, your two apartments will soon be renovated, and then you can go find an agent to rent them out.”

The two apartments were quite spacious, with rent estimated at about three to four thousand per month. Having been through so much, Lu Jiaxin believed he wouldn’t squander it carelessly. Those who have suffered and have a sense of crisis always plan an exit for themselves.

Guh Haifan asked, “Cousin, can I put the money in the bank?”

Lu Jiaxin made it clear that to open a bank account, the guardian’s signature was required. She wasn’t keen on dealing with He Zhuliang considering his behavior, so depositing the money in the bank would have to wait until next year.

Seeing the expression on Guh Haifan’s face, Lu Jiaxin said, “If you’re worried about the money being stolen, you can put it in Aunt’s safe. Change the password, and no one else will be able to steal your money.”

In fact, she didn’t need to worry about someone stealing his money at all, as those hired by the Guh Residence were paid handsomely and wouldn’t risk their job or carry the stigma of being a thief for such a small amount of money.

Guh Haifan thought this was a good idea, “Thank you, Cousin.”

After calming Guh Xiuxiu down, Aunt Mei came down just as Lu Jiaxin was about to leave. She caught up and said, “Miss Cousin, Aunt Hong did not betray the old lady. The messages she sent to the old house were all arranged by the old lady.”

Her eyes weren’t blind; how could she not see? Lu Jiaxin said, “I know she didn’t betray Aunt; otherwise, the old house would have known about Aunt’s illness long ago. It’s just that she looked down on me at first and wanted to overpower me, and that wasn’t acting.”

Aunt Mei paused, but after working with Aunt Hong for so many years, she really didn’t want to part ways, “Miss Cousin, Aunt Hong is even more meticulous than me in caring for the old lady. If she could come back, she could take turns with me in taking care of the old lady. The people hired from outside certainly can’t match her thoroughness and dedication.”

Lu Jiaxin still refused, “She’s getting on in years and can’t stay up through the night; I am looking for a younger nurse. That way, you can take care of Aunt during the day, and let the nurse watch over her at night.”

Aunt Mei looked crestfallen. Ah, she had advised Aunt Hong several times to show more respect to Miss Cousin, but she wouldn’t listen. And now, she can’t come back.

Seeing Lu Jiaxin’s stern face, Qian Xiaoxiao, who had never seen her like this before, asked anxiously, “Sister Xin, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing much, just remembering some unhappy things from the past.”

She regretted having come to Hong Kong through Guh Xiuxiu’s connection and even made her her guardian. If she had come through Su Heyuan’s connection, it would have just been owing him a big favor, which she could repay later by including him in investments. Choices are important; the wrong one can lead to many detours.

Gu Wenfeng said, “Boss, there’s no use regretting things that have already happened. What we need to think about now is how to resolve this matter.”

Lu Jiaxin said, “No rush, let’s wait a little longer.”

After being off medication for such a long time, Guh Xiuxiu genuinely hadn’t remembered everything, so Lu Jiaxin was willing to give it time. However, if after returning from her trip Guh Xiuxiu still refused to produce the evidence, Lu Jiaxin would drop the matter.

Back at the hotel, Lu Jiaxin called Nie Zhan, mentioning her planned vacation to Hawaii. To her surprise, Nie Zhan mentioned that the company was currently negotiating a big project and that he had to oversee it himself, so he couldn’t go to Hawaii for the time being.

Lu Jiaxin was somewhat puzzled, “That would disrupt my plans.”

She had planned to first visit Venice, then go shopping in Milan, and afterwards, make her way to Huadu and London.

Nie Zhan smiled and said, “You don’t need to change your plans. Go and enjoy Venice first, and I’ll come to find you after I finish what I have in hand.”

Lu Jiaxin was very satisfied. This attitude showed he wasn’t thinking about sacrificing or restraining his other half, hmm, and he also respected his other half a lot, which was good.

Nie Zhan continued, “Jiaxin, I have a villa in Venice. If you get tired of the hotel, you can stay at the villa. The environment there is quite nice.”

He didn’t dare directly invite Lu Jiaxin to stay there, fearing she would refuse again. Ah, Jiaxin was very independent, but sometimes it hurt to see.

Lu Jiaxin recalled a meme from her previous life and asked curiously, “Do you own houses all over the world?”

Nie Zhan smiled and replied, “Not everywhere. I have a problem with not sleeping well outside, so I bought houses in several cities I frequently visit.”

In the end, it was still about having money, hence buying houses carelessly. She also wanted to earn lots of money to buy properties in tourist destinations all over the world, so she didn’t need to stay in hotels when traveling. Although hotels had good facilities, it was more comfortable to sleep in one’s own home.

“When you’re ready to buy a house, tell me. I’ll ask a friend to give you a discount then.”

In fact, his real intention was to give Lu Jiaxin a house as a gift, but he knew she wouldn’t accept it, so he took a roundabout approach.

Lu Jiaxin found him quite amusing, “Do you know where I will buy houses?”

Nie Zhan replied without hesitation, “Beverly Hills, Saint-Tropez, Gstaad, Courchevel, you will often visit these places in the future.”

Alright, all these are tourist destinations, and they are all places where the rich go to have fun. She would definitely go there once she had the money.

Having purchased her flight ticket the same day, Lu Jiaxin left with Qian Xiaoxiao and the others the next day.

Due to his busy schedule, Nie Zhan couldn’t make it to the airport to see her off, so he had Wang Yadan go on his behalf. When she came back and told him Lu Jiaxin wasn’t angry and even reminded him to take care of his health, he felt quite guilty.

Feng Qing Lei called to invite him for a meal and, hearing him say he was busy with overtime, jokingly asked, “You’re so busy every day. Aren’t you afraid Little Chili will get angry?”

“She went traveling.”

“What? She went traveling? Didn’t she just come back from traveling in the Mainland?”

“The He Family’s matter made her feel very down. There’s still a long time before school starts, so going away for a while will help adjust her mood when she comes back.”

Speaking of the He Family, Feng Qing Lei swore outright, “That entire family is no good. They took all the old lady’s assets but abandoned her. It’s only because Little Chili is kind-hearted; if it were me, I wouldn’t have cared.”

“With the way the He Family is conducting themselves, they’ll be ruined before long.”

Feng Qing Lei grunted in agreement, “Given the things they’ve done, who would dare do business with them without worrying about being devoured to the bone?”
