Capítulo 813: Chapter 813: She Can’t Bear to See Him Bow His Head to Others
Zhixi suddenly felt guilty: “I’m sorry… I didn’t expect the money to run out so fast…”
The rent had already taken up more than half, and daily expenses couldn’t be cut back, after all, Xiaobao was still growing, and she was pregnant, the nutrition must be kept up.
So Zhixi just watched as the balance on her bank card quickly decreased, making her anxious.
“Don’t worry, if it really doesn’t work out, I can borrow some,” he thought for a moment and said.
Zhixi looked up: “But, who can we borrow from?”
“Yanzhao, Shenhan… both can work, even Ning Yichen,” He Jingyao said as he pulled her into his arms, “Although borrowing money is a bit embarrassing… I can’t let you go hungry regardless.”
“… Better not.” Zhixi thought for a moment and still refused.
“Why?” his voice turned hoarse.
“I don’t want you to bow your head to others…” Zhixi’s voice was muffled, “even if they are your friends.”
He Jingyao was slightly stunned, then gave a small laugh and pinched her cheek: “You’re really silly… otherwise, I might as well go to work, although I have nothing to do with the He Family now, with my education and experience, finding a job shouldn’t be hard.”
“No way!” Zhixi vehemently refused, “You absolutely cannot go out to work at this time! People knowing you’re He Jingyao might have uncertain motives in hiring you… Anyway, I don’t want you to go.”
In her heart, this man was always proud; she couldn’t stand seeing him bow his head to others and couldn’t accept him facing any slight injustice or insult.
As she spoke, she leaned into his arms with a firm tone: “Anyway… I won’t let you suffer, don’t worry!”
He Jingyao held her, his expression blank and silent for a long time.
Even he didn’t expect this woman to defend him to such an extent. He never doubted she could share weal and woe with him, but her feelings surpassed his expectations by far.
He Jingyao suddenly felt a tightness in his throat.
He sighed softly, biting her earlobe, his voice hoarse: “Truly silly.”
Silly indeed.
He Jingyao thought and suddenly couldn’t help but laugh.
It seemed she had gotten used to protecting him in every way from a long time ago, to the point where she couldn’t stand others speaking ill of him even a little.
“I’m serious,” Zhixi emphasized forcefully, “If it really doesn’t work, I might as well borrow some money from Dad. In any case, we just need to get through this year! I’ll pay Dad back after I start working!”
He Jingyao couldn’t help it when he saw her determined look and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
Zhixi was stunned for a moment, still not reacting, the man’s tongue had already invaded, quickly conquering territory leaving her body to quickly soften.
“We will have good luck.” After the kiss was over, the man, breathing unevenly, held her, “Trust me, okay?”
Zhixi nodded dazedly, not really understanding what he meant by saying this.
But that night, Uncle Li joyfully came over to tell her: “Young Mistress, Young Master won the lottery! You don’t need to worry about living expenses anymore!”
Zhixi was stunned: “Lottery?”
“Exactly! Young Master has been asking me to buy lottery tickets recently. Yesterday, two tickets with the same number won second prize, combined they total two million!” Uncle Li said with a smile.
Zhixi widened her eyes and looked at a certain man.
“I still had money for lottery tickets.” He smiled very humbly, “I didn’t expect such good luck.”
