The Blessed Beauty Returns with a Dimension

Liu Huili opened her bag and put money inside.

"Hey, you shouldn't stand behind this lady like that. What are you doing?"

The bank teller behind the counter was extremely vigilant. Several robberies had happened recently.

They were also worried about any danger, especially since the lady in front of them was pregnant and had withdrawn such a large amount of money. If there was a robbery, it would be bad.

This was out of a sense of security.

Liu Huili hurriedly turned around.

Who was that man standing behind her? It would be troublesome if it were a robbery.

"What's wrong with you..."

As soon as she saw the man behind her was Fan Jianguo, Liu Huili immediately closed her mouth tight.

Her heart suddenly jumped. How long had Fan Jianguo been standing behind her?

Could it be that Fan Jianguo found out her bankbook had no money?

Fan Jianguo helped her put the money into the bag and smiled as he spoke to the bank teller.

"Thank you, comrade. This is my wife. I was just worried about her, so I came over to check on her."

The teller smiled and said, "We were just saying, how could you let a pregnant woman with a big belly come here alone to withdraw money, such a large amount? What if she ran into a robber? That would really be something. It's good you came. This way you can be a little more at ease, and make sure to stay safe."

Fan Jianguo repeatedly said thank you.

He helped Liu Huili to the side.

Liu Huili was anxious inside; she didn't know if Fan Jianguo had seen the amount on the bankbook.

But she didn't dare to ask.

"Where's my mom? Didn't you go to pick her up?"

Fan Jianguo supported her as they walked out, "I just forgot to lock the car."

"Then let's go pick up my mom now."

Liu Huili glanced at Fan Jianguo's face; there was no anger in his expression.

She was slightly relieved, it seemed he might not have noticed.

"I've taken out the money, you can send it to the food factory tomorrow."

She handed her bag to Fan Jianguo.

Fan Jianguo took the bag, feeling its substantial weight; it contained 40,000 yuan.

But he felt a sense of oppression he couldn't express. Having seen this, he felt uneasy if he didn't ask, yet he feared that asking might reveal the answer he dreaded.

He trusted Liu Huili completely with their money. Although she had some small flaws, who doesn't?

He himself had many flaws.

He couldn't just stop trusting his wife because of this.

Even though she often took things or gave a little money to her family, as long as it was within their means,

he turned a blind eye to it.

After all, she was the eldest in her family, it was normal for her to contribute a little more sometimes.

Her family wasn't doing well, while they were more well-off, so a bit of support was only natural.

But now the bankbook was suddenly short 60,000 yuan, and Fan Jianguo felt stifled.

It would take him a year to earn that 60,000 yuan back, all that hard-earned money vanished in an instant.

And his wife was acting as if nothing was wrong.

Fan Jianguo couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Wife, give me the bankbook."

He hoped Liu Huili would come clean on her own; even if she had given the money to her family, he needed to know where it went. It's 60,000 yuan, after all—no ordinary family could use such a sum.

Even if it was for her brother's wedding, it would only be hundreds, at most a few thousand yuan. This was a matter of tens of thousands.

It's not that he didn't trust Liu Huili, but with so much money missing from the bankbook, he couldn't help but have doubts.

"What do you need the bankbook for? Haven't I always been the one keeping it? I've already withdrawn the money for you; why do you need the bankbook?"

Liu Huili clutched her leather bag tightly, inside was that empty bankbook with a balance of zero.

"Wife, if there's something you need to say, just say it. We're a couple, we handle big things together. But you can't lie to me."

Fan Jianguo's face flushed red; he had no other choice. He knew saying this was harsh, but he had to.

He felt he didn't even have the courage to walk out of the bank's doors.

"Fan Jianguo, what do you mean? What have I lied to you about?"

Liu Huili continued to bluff.

She somewhat regretted not having Fan Jianguo pick up her mom first. If her mom was here,

at least she'd have a shield. Fan Jianguo would hesitate to question her in front of her mom.

But now, there was nowhere to hide. If Fan Jianguo insisted on taking out the bankbook, her actions would be exposed immediately.

"How much is left in the bankbook now?"

Fan Jianguo didn't understand why it was so hard for Liu Huili to come clean when he'd already given her the chance.

Where did the 60,000 yuan go? Any man would want an explanation—this was hard-earned family money.

Did he not even have the right to ask?

No wonder Liu Huili was so adamant about not wanting him to start a fruit business today; the real issue was here: the money was gone, so how could they talk about starting a business?

Fan Jianguo was somewhat resentful.

"Fan Jianguo, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you? You already knew there was no money in the bankbook. You're asking me on purpose, aren't you?"

Liu Huili asked Fan Jianguo in a low voice.

"Yes, I'm doing it on purpose. As soon as I entered the bank, I heard the teller say there was no money in the bankbook. You withdrew 40,000 yuan; should the bankbook be closed? What's going on? Where did the 60,000 yuan go?"

Fan Jianguo tried to keep his tone calm; he didn't want Liu Huili to get too upset.

After all, she was carrying his child right now. For the sake of the child, he couldn't be too harsh.

"You doubt me? Yes! I used the money. But I didn't waste it—I used it to do business. You can earn money, and I want to prove myself, too. I can earn money too. Every time I asked you for money to help my family,

you never noticed the look in your eyes. You looked down on our family. Otherwise, why would I use this method to earn money myself?"

Liu Huili decided to smash the pot to pieces; since it was already exposed, even if she didn't say it,

Fan Jianguo would know once he took out the bankbook. Besides, he'd already heard the teller, and there was no point in denying it anymore.

"What kind of business needs 60,000 yuan? Why didn't you even discuss it with me? Even if you wanted to do business and discussed it with me, I would have agreed. But you didn't talk to me at all. We're a couple; we're a family.

Yet you kept it from me. I don't understand why; am I not good to you? Am I not good to your family?"

Fan Jianguo felt aggrieved.
