The Blessed Beauty Returns with a Dimension

Chapter 694: A Twist of Fate



Liu Huili, with a pale face, held her stomach.

She aggressively questioned Fan Jianguo.

"Fan Jianguo, what do you mean by this? You don't trust me, is that it? I am your wife, my family is not rich, but you can't just look down on all of them. Fine, you wait at home, I'll go to the bank right now to get the money, so you can stop doubting me in your heart."

"Huihui, that's not what I meant, wife, listen to me."

Seeing his wife lose her temper, Fan Jianguo felt somewhat anxious.

He was afraid that his wife might really get too upset, especially since she was pregnant.

"What do you mean by saying that? Are you implying that I married you for your money? In your eyes, am I such a person? If you don't trust me, why did you give me the passbook? I said I wanted my mom to come stay with us, and just look at the face you made.

Are you implying my family doesn't even count as people? Fine, Fan Jianguo, I've figured it all out. You never considered me as part of your family, you guard against me like I'm a thief. I'll go get the passbook now.

From now on, we'll keep to ourselves. I'll go back to my parents' place and live my own life. When this child is born, it'll have Liu as the last name and nothing to do with you."

Liu Huili, holding her belly, started rummaging through the drawers.

Fan Jianguo, worried about his wife being angry, also worried she'd harm the baby.

"Take it easy, slow down, let's not get angry, okay? How could I not trust you? I married you, didn't I? If I wasn't wholeheartedly living with you, would I have given you the entire family wealth in the passbook?

Alright, alright, we won't get angry, is that okay? It's all my fault. Let's not take out the passbook today, tomorrow, tomorrow! Would you give it to me then?"

Fan Jianguo spent a long time appeasing Liu Huili, and finally managed to turn her mood around.

Liu Huili knew Fan Jianguo was a pushover and that she could act spoiled, but she shouldn't really push him to the brink.

Leaning against Fan Jianguo, clutching his clothes, she spoke in a wronged tone.

"I'm just upset that you don't believe in me. I'm also wholeheartedly doing this for our family, I know you think I'm not nice to your mom. But can I really get used to the food your mom cooks?

I wanted my mom to come over, not because I want someone constantly hovering around me, cooking food I can't eat. Not eating it would mean wasting the effort she put in; eating it, it really doesn't suit my taste, and this baby is picky too.

I figured it would lighten the load for your mom if my mom comes, so she could have a good rest and stay at the older sister's place for a couple of days. Isn't that also for you? But you think my mom is here to freeload, how could I not be hurt?"

Liu Huili was very skilled at using such tender tactics, with just a few words she made Fan Jianguo lose all his temper.

"Alright, Huihui, it's my misunderstanding. I know you're doing it for my mom's sake. Alright, alright! I'll go pick up our mother-in-law today, is that good?"

Upon hearing his wife say this, all of Fan Jianguo's anger disappeared, realizing she truly cared for his mom.

Liu Huili smiled.

"Alright then, let's go out together. There's a bank next to my place. I'll withdraw some money. You go pick up my mom and meet me after."

She had a little trick in mind, she definitely had to withdraw the money; otherwise, Fan Jianguo would be suspicious.

But if she were to go to the bank by herself tomorrow while heavily pregnant, Fan Jianguo would definitely not feel at ease and would insist on accompanying her.

If he accompanies her into the bank, he would surely find out the amount on the passbook.

But if today she sends Fan Jianguo to pick up her mom while she takes the opportunity to withdraw money at the bank, she has a legitimate reason for it, accomplishing her goal while keeping the amount on the passbook from Fan Jianguo.

Luckily, she kept enough of the money that Fan Jianguo needed for this withdrawal.

It was good that she wasn't greedy back then, as she truly thought about giving all that 100,000 yuan to Fang Xiaohui.

It looks like she ought to urge Fang Xiaohui in a few days.

Fan Jianguo thought it through and agreed, anyway, they needed to withdraw money, so it killed two birds with one stone.

He drove Liu Huili to the bank and parked the car right at the entrance.

It was only about ten minutes on foot to his mother-in-law's place.

Driving there was just as convenient as walking, and there were quite a few people waiting in line at the bank.

Estimating that by the time he brings his mother-in-law back, his wife would be done here.

After repeatedly reminding his wife to be careful, he noted that since she was pregnant, others would give her some consideration.

He helped his wife to a seat, then quickly ran to his mother-in-law's place.

Liu Huili checked the time; as soon as Fan Jianguo left, she couldn't wait until he returned to withdraw money, as it would risk exposing her plan.

She knew it was only about ten minutes from her parents' place.

Supporting her waist, Liu Huili walked to the young man at the front of the line, gently tapped his shoulder.

The young man turned around, his face showing surprise at seeing the pregnant woman.

"Comrade, I'm really sorry. I'm about to give birth and need to prepare some money for the hospital, but my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable right now. Could you please let me go first? I truly apologize for the trouble."

Liu Huili gently rubbed her round belly, wearing an apologetic expression, she, of course, knew how to make others want to accommodate her.

Sure enough, when the young man saw the pregnant woman, he immediately gave in.

"Go ahead, ma'am, go ahead, it's alright, it's alright. It's just waiting in line a bit longer. Being pregnant must be so inconvenient. Why are you here alone?"

Liu Huili gave a bitter smile, "I'm not alone, my husband went to pick up my mom, it'll probably take another ten minutes for him to arrive."

The young man made way.

As soon as the previous transaction was done, Liu Huili hastily stepped up to the counter and handed over her passbook.

"Withdraw 40,000 yuan."

The bank teller glanced at Liu Huili.

Fan Jianguo, who had already walked a dozen meters out of the bank, suddenly remembered he hadn't locked the van.

He had to turn back and lock the van properly.

Thinking he might as well take a look at his wife inside the bank, and remind her again, that once the money was withdrawn, she shouldn't step outside.

When waiting inside a bank, at least there are staff and security, reducing the risk of anything happening.

Recently, he heard it wasn't very safe around.

He entered the bank and looked around, only to find his wife already at the front of the line.

Walking over, he heard the staff ask.

"Withdrawing all 40,000 yuan will leave this passbook empty, do you want to close the account?"

Fan Jianguo was stunned, withdrawing all 40,000 yuan?

Close the account?

Wasn't there supposed to be 100,000 in it?

Overhearing Liu Huili laugh, "No need to close it, we'll deposit more money in some time soon."

She picked up the passbook, and Fan Jianguo, standing right behind her, caught a glimpse of the number on it.

Zero!
