Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Wei Kaiyun hurried home and found that Shi Jing was already asleep. His wife was feeding their daughter.

”You’re back? Director Yuan hasn’t left yet, right?”

”Leaving tomorrow. I’m going to freshen up first.”

”Okay, Aunt Bai has prepared hot water.”

Wei Kaiyun knew his wife liked cleanliness, and he too developed the habit.

After showering, he returned to find his daughter still feeding, ”Why is she using a bottle?”

”She only eats with a bottle.” Jiang Xinyu had been troubled about this since midday but couldn’t talk to anyone about it. It was really tough.

”That’s great. From now on, it’s mine alone.”

”How shameless, saying anything that comes to mind.”

Wei Kaiyun smiled cheekily, thinking there’s no need to be serious with his own wife.

”Wife, aren’t you uncomfortable with that?” He had seen his wife before and found it unsettling.

”Forget it, if she wants it this way, so be it. In half a year, we’ll give her powdered milk.”

After soothing the little girl to sleep, it was Wei Kaiyun’s time.

”What’s up with you today? Why are you being so insistent?” Jiang Xinyu had pushed him away several times.

”Wife, I invited Yuan Xinyun to drink today, he says Secretary Tong resents him.”

”Why? Didn’t Director Yuan go to pick her up? Aren’t they together now?”

”Initially, when they were together, Yuan Xinyun forced Secretary Tong.”

”Oh. That’s hard to say then, but I feel Director Yuan is quite nice to Secretary Tong. Maybe Secretary Tong now feels a big gap?”

”Yuan Xinyun is ten years older than Secretary Tong.”

”That’s no excuse. It’s probably Secretary Tong unable to overcome her own internal barrier.”

Wei Kaiyun didn’t dare ask if Jiang Xinyu would regret it in the future. He pressed her beneath him again.

Jiang Xinyu seemed to understand what Wei Kaiyun was worried about, so she was a bit more proactive than usual, which stirred up trouble. The next day, Jiang Xinyu didn’t wake up until her son came to wake her.

She was completely exhausted, ”Wife, take a day off today,” Wei Kaiyun suggested, smiling ingratiatingly.

Jiang Xinyu glared at him, and after breakfast expressed milk before heading to school.

Wei Kaiyun carried her backpack, talking nice all the way.

”Wife, I probably can’t come to pick you up at noon. Also, I want to lend Yuan Xinyun two hundred bucks, he likely doesn’t have money now.”

”I don’t mind, I can get back by myself.”

Wei Kaiyun went to the hotel and invited Yuan Xinyun for a meal.

”This place is a bit better than ours.”

Wei Kaiyun nodded, ”The disaster here is probably less severe than ours.”

After eating, they returned to the hotel. Wei Kaiyun took out two hundred yuan and handed it to Yuan Xinyun.

”No other meaning, likely not as comfortable over there as I am here. With money in your pocket, you feel more secure.”

Yuan Xinyun took the money with a complex expression. ”Thank you, Xiao Wei.”

”We’ve been together for years, no need for such politeness.” After sending off Yuan Xinyun, he hurried home, guessing the family was already eating.

Bai Hongying knew Wei Kaiyun hadn’t eaten and quickly went into the kitchen to make fresh pancakes for him.

Feeding Feifei was now Wei Kaiyun’s job, while Jiang Xinyu could take a rest during this time.

Seeing his wife fall asleep the moment she lay down, Wei Kaiyun beamed with joy.

Men probably care a lot about this; it’s a peculiar psychology.

After sending his wife to school, he returned home to accompany his son and daughter. Seeing Yuan Xinyun, Wei Kaiyun became increasingly focused on the kids.

After picking up his wife in the evening, Jiang Xinyu was a bit excited, ”I’m now a prospective party member.”

”Nice, keep working hard, and strive to join the party by graduation.”

It was late November when the rain started to fall, and Jiang Xinyu felt very irritable. The weather was really unpleasant, constantly feeling damp.

It was her difficult days, and Wei Kaiyun was extremely attentive.

Bai Hongying was very satisfied with him, often praising him in front of Jiang Xinyu.

Jiang Xinyu also felt particularly happy, having no high demands, no ambitions, just wanting the family together.

Over at Kong Demin and Meng Xiu Fen, things were sweet, while Gan Jiancheng served them tirelessly, unaware of his betrayal.

Meng Xiu Fen was five months pregnant, perhaps due to the love, her face always had a radiant smile despite her age.

Gan Jiancheng thought it was his accomplishment and worked even harder to prepare good food for his wife.

Meng Xiu Fen gladly accepted his service, almost daily meeting with Kong Demin, but timing was tricky.

When the weather was warm, they could go to the Kong Family, but now it’s cold, and there’s no time to light a fire, so they stayed home.

Initially, they were nervous, knowing Gan Jiancheng wasn’t a good man, but as he was busy with work and never returned during the day, they became braver.

Tonight, Meng Xiu Fen really yearned for him, sneaking into Kong Demin’s room in the middle of the night while Gan Jiancheng slept.

This made it even more exciting, and they both began to enjoy the feeling.

”Do you miss me that much?”

”Hmm, I can’t sleep, feels like something’s missing without it.”

”Right, you’re like those female ghosts from books, needing my masculinity for nourishment. Do you feel much younger?”

”I feel it. Look, no wrinkles on my face now, thanks to you.”

”See? I’m good, serving you so well.”

”Hmm, I’ve spotted a house in the city, buying it for you so we can move together someday.”

”Really?”

”No joke, I’m visiting there soon. How will you repay me?”

An hour later, Meng Xiu Fen returned to her room; if Gan Jiancheng saw, he would surely notice something unusual.

Seeing the old man snoring on the bed, Meng Xiu Fen felt disgust for him for the first time.

If it weren’t for him, she could be with Demin all the time.

In bed, she lay contemplating solutions. He must not become an obstacle for them.

She fell asleep with these thoughts, but the seed had already sprouted.

Kong Demin lay on the bed, thinking about what Meng Xiu Fen said earlier; getting a house was a good plan.

During family breakfast, ”Old Gan, I’m going to the city for a check-up today, if you don’t have time, let Demin drive me.”

”Sure, don’t go to work today, wait at home for Demin.”

”Okay, don’t be too late.”

”I’ll have him come back soon.”

Kong Demin left the house without attending a meeting, took the car keys, and stepped out.
