Chapter 8: I’ll Give You a Card

“I don’t eat takeout or food from roadside stalls. You can make some porridge, snacks, buns, and so on. Sandwiches and coffee are fine too. You have to make some fruits every morning.”

Lu Qi picked a walnut bun in disdain and ate it slowly. The smell of the low quality additives on the outside of the walnut bun made him frown.

“Don’t buy things from those small stalls in the future. It’s not clean.”

Bai Yi nodded and thought to herself, As expected of a high-level worker. His requirements for breakfast were so high.

What she did not know was that breakfast at Lu Qi’s house was prepared by a Michelin-level chef. There were all kinds of soup and snacks, Chinese and Western. Usually, breakfast in the morning was as sumptuous as eating buffets.

Bai Yi ate very quickly, far inferior to Lu Qi’s slow and refined manner. In less than ten minutes, she had filled her stomach and sat there watching Lu Qi eat in boredom.

Lu Qi felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze. “Did you buy these decorations at home too?”

“Yes, many things here are incomplete. I’ve already bought some basic ones. Some are from online. They’ll be arriving over the next few days.”

Lu Qi got Bai Yi to register an account in a bank he often used and bound a card to her.

“This is my salary card. I’ll tie it to your account. You can use it as you please. You can buy whatever you want to use at home, but you have to show me your accounts every week.”

“No need. I’ll pay for these. We just need to split grocery bills.”

Lu Qi had not expected this woman to ask to split the bill. After all, in his eyes, many girls at Bai Yi’s level wanted to find someone to support them.

“I already said yesterday that I can support you. You don’t have to reject me.” Lu Qi’s tone was unquestionable. Some private businesses did not need much money. What he did not lack the most was money. If he could use this money to see this woman’s true colors, he felt that it was worth it.

“It’s not that I don’t have an income, Mr. Lu. I live in your house. If you pay for the house, I’ll pay for those small items. It’s fairer this way.”

Bai Yi’s tone was stiff. She gritted her teeth when she said the words “Mr. Lu.”

Lu Qi did not continue this topic. This woman was completely different from what he had imagined. She was not flexible at all and did not even want money.

“Have you thought about the car?” he asked. “I have clients in this business. If you buy a car now, you’ll get a discount, and it’s also more convenient.”

“There’s no need.” Bai Yi’s tone was cold. “I can take the subway or ride a bicycle. I quite like riding a bicycle.”

Bai Yi was not lying. She did not like to sit in a car. Her brother-in-law’s second-hand Volkswagen car had a strange smell of smoke and alcohol. Every time she sat in it, she felt disgusted and wanted to vomit. She even had to listen to her brother-in-law’s preaching and disdain.

Although riding a bike was a little slower, it made her feel refreshed and put her in a good mood.

“I’m going to work. I’ve already cleaned the house. If you need to wash clothes, put them in the laundry basket. I’ll wash them together when I come back tonight.”

Lu Qi felt that Bai Yi was angry, but he did not understand what she was angry about. Had he said something wrong?

“Prepare a meal at home this weekend to entertain our two families.”

When Bai Yi reached the door, she suddenly heard Lu Qi say.

“Alright.” Bai Yi nodded and walked out of the door without giving him a smile.

Lu Qi picked up his phone and opened the conversation with Bai Yi. He wanted to say something, but after typing a few times, he placed it on the table.

What was going on? This woman actually got angry with him?

The dance studio opened at ten o’clock for the first morning class. Bai Yi planned to take this time to visit her sister.

When she reached her sister’s house, her sister, Bai Ying, had a tired expression. She was looking at the children’s kitchenware and trying to figure out how to make a smiley face with the carrot.

“Sis, let’s go out and eat. Don’t cook anymore.” Bai Yi took the things from Bai Ying’s hand and placed them on the chopping board. Looking at the messy house, her heart ached again.

She had already moved out, so why did her sister still look so troubled?

“There’s no need. It’s too expensive. Your brother-in-law is going to scold me again. Furthermore, Nuonuo likes food in different shapes. If we go out to eat, he’ll throw a tantrum.”

“I’ll treat you and Nuonuo to a fast food restaurant on the corner. That place sells children’s food. Let’s eat together.”

Hearing her sister’s words, Bai Ying’s tears fell again.

“Sis, what happened?”
