Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire
Chapter 338 - Chapter 338 Chapter 327 The World of Adults

Chapter 338: Chapter 327: The World of Adults Chapter 338: Chapter 327: The World of Adults Su Heyuan wasn’t foolish, and quickly realized that “dirty” didn’t refer to her hands being dirty, but her being a dirty person.

However, since she was the only woman who had moved his heart, Su Heyuan fell silent for a moment and then said, “Nie Zhan is a clean freak. Miss Ye Xin previously dated several boyfriends–is that why he feels she, she…”

He believed the reason why Nie Zhan couldn’t find a girlfriend was his obsession with cleanliness, and pursued Jiaxin because he knew she was pure and unblemished, which is why he looked down on Miss Ye who had had several boyfriends and was experienced in love.

Lu Jiaxin felt that his logic was quite peculiar, “Nie Zhan received a Western-style education. He didn’t care that I had a fiance, so why would he care about Miss Ye having dated a few times?”

“Then why would he say that?”

Lu Jiaxin sighed and said, “He told me once, while dining with friends, he saw Miss Ye entering a private room with two young celebrities. That room was full of playboys; he thinks he might have been seeing things.”

Su Heyuan was no innocent young boy, so how could he not understand the implication of those words, “That’s impossible.”

Lu Jiaxin fell silent for a moment and then said, “I also feel it’s impossible and hope that Nie Zhan was mistaken. Big Brother Su, since you’re intent on marriage, I think it’s better to check. Of course, if it doesn’t bother you, then pretend I never said anything.”

Although she and Su Heyuan had made some money, in a place like Hong Kong they were only considered to have modest wealth, not comparable to Nie Zhan’s circle. Su Heyuan’s friend must have been certain of this, which is why he dared to introduce Miss Ye to him. As for that encounter, Nie Zhan saw her at the turn of the hallway. Due to the angle, Miss Ye did not see him, which is why he could remain so composed during their last meeting.

Su Heyuan felt terrible, and after speaking a few words with Lu Jiaxin, he left. After much contemplation, he ultimately decided not to hire a private detective to investigate Ye Xin, perhaps as a way to maintain his last bit of dignity.

Lu Jiaxin entered the classroom with a nervous heart, but as the lesson started, she found it not as difficult as imagined. After a week, she felt at ease, confident that as long as she studied diligently, achieving an excellent grade would be no problem.

Resting for two days on the weekend, Lu Jiaxin was ready to head home after school on Friday. However, at the school gate, she saw a familiar figure.

Lu Jiaxin ran over, tilted her head up, and smiled as she asked, “How long have you been waiting? Tell me in advance next time, or if I dawdle in class, you’ll have to wait a long time.”

Nie Zhan smoothed the hair on her forehead and said with a smile, “It’s all right, I would wait however long it takes.”

Lu Jiaxin felt that he was becoming more adept at sweet-talking.

She thought they were going out to eat, but Nie Zhan mentioned that they would go home for dinner, “I hired a chef who used to work at Good Fortune Here. His Cantonese cuisine is very authentic; you will definitely like it.”

That’s when Lu Jiaxin realized he was taking her to his mansion. She didn’t refuse, after all, she had promised to visit before.

When they arrived at Nie Zhan’s villa, Lu Jiaxin ran to the backyard to have a look. There were many pines and cypresses in the backyard, just a little short on flowers.

Nie Zhan said, “Don’t you like peonies and roses? In time, I will have them planted here for you.”

Lu Jiaxin felt that having just two types of flowers was too monotonous; she hoped to have a variety of species. It’s more beautiful when all sorts of flowers blossom together; you would get tired of seeing just one or two kinds after a while.

“All right, we’ll do as you want.”

Hand in hand, Nie Zhan and Lu Jiaxin walked on the lawn, discussing as they went, “The backyard currently only has flower beds and a swimming pool. I plan to buy the villa next door soon, so we can turn the space in between into a tennis court. That way, we can play tennis at home.”

Buying the adjacent villa just for the convenience of playing tennis–such an extravagance was beyond the ordinary.

Lu Jiaxin expressed that she was very busy and might only manage to play tennis around ten to twenty times a year; buying an entire plot of land to construct a tennis court for this purpose seemed rather unnecessary. Besides, I think public courts with more people can be more motivating.

“By the way, didn’t you say you would teach me golf? When are we starting?”

Nie Zhan had been quite busy lately, “I have a lot going on this week and can’t accompany you to play. Next Saturday, next Saturday I’ll take you to play. Also, when you have time, you can practice at home, be it tennis or golf, good performance in either requires a lot of practice.”

“Okay.”

The dinner was prepared according to Lu Jiaxin’s taste, and she ate joyfully. After dinner, the two of them held hands and took a walk in the backyard garden.

The moonlight was like water, quietly spilling down, with a light mist enveloping the entire garden. Lu Jiaxin turned her head to look at Nie Zhan–under the moonlight, the handsome man only grew more attractive. She couldn’t resist, tiptoed, and kissed Nie Zhan’s cheek.

If Nie Zhan could have resisted, he wouldn’t have been a man. He lowered his head and started kissing from her forehead.

Qian Xiaoxiao was originally standing on the steps watching them, but upon seeing this scene, she quickly retreated back into the living room. Gu Wenfeng saw her as if she had seen a ghost, “What’s wrong?”

As a single dog who had never dated, Qian Xiaoxiao’s face burned red and she stammered that it was nothing, “Just… suddenly felt a bit cold, need to put on more clothes.”

As a father of two children, Gu Wenfeng understood the situation perfectly well, “In the future, inside the villa, you don’t need to follow so closely. Forget it, come with me for a patrol around the area.”

She didn’t need to follow closely, but all dangers must be ruled out.

“Okay.”

Lu Jiaxin’s face turned red with the kiss, and feeling embarrassed about her earlier actions, she lowered her head. She really hadn’t restrained herself just now–ah, how beauty leads one astray!

Nie Zhan, seeing her shy demeanor, pulled her into his arms and said with a husky voice, “Jiaxin, I really wish time could pass faster.”

Lu Jiaxin was initially stunned, then understood and secretly chuckled to herself.

At 9:30 pm, Lu Jiaxin left the Nie Family’s house and returned to her own villa, where she saw Su Heyuan. Before she could speak, Su Heyuan said, “I’m not in a good mood. Can you have a few drinks with me?”

Lu Jiaxin nodded, “That’s fine, but all I have here is wine.”

Su Heyuan said he brought some liquor himself, and also brought over some snacks, including braised beef, stir-fried peanuts, smashed cucumbers, and cold chicken feet.

The preparations were quite complete.

Lu Jiaxin asked Gu Wenfeng and the others to go out, and she stepped forward to pour him a drink. She didn’t expect that as soon as the liquor was poured, he picked up the glass and drained it in one gulp.

After Su Heyuan downed three glasses of red wine, Lu Jiaxin asked, “What happened?”

Su Heyuan waved his hand, indicating nothing happened, he just felt suffocated and wanted to find someone to drink and talk with. He couldn’t trust the friends he had made now; he dared not talk to his family members for fear of causing them worry. After considering, only Lu Jiaxin seemed suitable.

Lu Jiaxin understood it wasn’t a work-related issue when she heard this, “Did you break up with Miss Ye?”

Su Heyuan hummed and said, “I met with her tonight and told her we weren’t suitable. She asked how we were not suitable; I didn’t explain, simply said there was no fate.”

After speaking, he poured himself a glass of white liquor and downed it.

Seeing his condition, Lu Jiaxin felt it was fortunate she had mentioned it; the longer the time, the deeper one falls, and the more painful the breakup would be.

Su Heyuan, having drunk a bottle and a half of white liquor, became drunk. When inebriated, he wasn’t disruptive but wandered around calling for ‘Mom,’ tugging at everyone’s heartstrings.

Lu Jiaxin made him some sobering soup, and by the time the soup was forced down, it was the middle of the night. Unable to stay awake, Lu Jiaxin went upstairs to sleep, leaving Zong Jinghua and Gu Wenfeng to keep watch.

When Lu Jiaxin woke up the next day and inquired, she found out that Su Heyuan had already gotten up and gone to work.
