Diamond Marriage: The Devil's Wife Takes Home

Chapter 289 Still a poor man

17, 18...

Qing Huan drew red circles on the cartoon calendar.

Today is the 18th, the second day after Fu Jingshi left. Although Fu Jingshi said he would go abroad for a week on business, Qing Huan suddenly realized that a week is so long.

17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23.

The 23rd is the day of return that Fu Jingshi mentioned.

Qing Huan snapped her fingers, thinking about what she should do in the remaining five days to pass the boring time.

Qing Huan thought about it, and decided to go back to the hospital for vacation, and use her working days to pass the long wait.

With a plan in mind, Qing Huan felt a little fuller.

When her eyes touched the number 22 on the calendar, Qing Huan suddenly remembered that this was an important day.

Fu Jingshi will not be able to come back until the 23rd. Thinking of this, I am a little disappointed.

Number 22...

----

After several days of waiting, the day of the 22nd finally came.

Qing Huan got up and went downstairs, and saw Xu Mingshan who had just arrived in the living room.

Seeing Qing Huan coming to the living room, Xu Mingshan hurriedly stood up from the sofa, "Qing Huan!"

Qing Huan was very happy to see her uncle appear. After all, there are still people who will remember this day. Qing Huan said silently in her heart, Uncle, you are really my relatives. You specially appeared on my birthday. in front of me.

"Uncle, you are here."

Qing Huan saw her favorite mousse cake on the glass tea table next to Xu Mingshan's hand, and raised her eyebrows, "Uncle, you are so kind, bring me my favorite cake to eat."

Xu Mingshan smiled, "It's just a cake, uncle wants to take you out for dinner later."

"Uncle, you are so kind! Since you want to take me to dinner, I'll go upstairs and change!" Qing Huan went upstairs full of joy.

……

The car slowly drove out of the gate of Fu's house. Inside the car, Qing Huan and Xu Mingshan were sitting in the back seat.

Qing Huan looked at the receding green scenery outside the window, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised. Although Fu Jingshi was not by her side to accompany her today, it felt good to have her uncle accompany her on her birthday.

Just when Qing Huan was thinking about it, the cell phone in her bag rang, and Qing Huan picked it up happily, thinking it would be a call from Fu Jingshi, her smile froze when she saw an unfamiliar number.

She answered the phone and placed it next to her ear, "Hello, who is it?"

"Qing Huan, I'm Dad." Gu Sicheng's low voice came over, "Today is your birthday, I prepared a birthday party for you at the hotel, and I've sent someone to pick you up."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu! I'm not at home now. I'm with my uncle. He will help me celebrate my birthday."

After finishing speaking, Qing Huan hung up the phone resolutely.

"Birthday? Qing Huan, did you just say that I would help you celebrate your birthday?" Xu Mingshan's surprised voice came to Qing Huan's ears word by word.

Qing Huan immediately petrified, she slowly raised her face, and looked at Xu Mingshan who was also surprised beside her, "Uncle, what I heard from you is that you forgot that today is my birthday?"

"Ah?" Xu Mingshan patted his head violently, "Qing Huan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Uncle really forgot your birthday. It's okay, Uncle will take you there."

Qing Huan let out a long breath, "Uncle—you even forgot your dear niece's birthday, I'm sad."

Xu Mingshan hurriedly hugged Qing Huan's shoulders, "Qing Huan, uncle is wrong, after we get to the restaurant later, you can choose the more expensive one."

Pick an expensive one?Qing Huan looked over suspiciously, "Uncle, you are rich now!"

"No money!" Xu Mingshan suddenly said seriously, and in just a second, Xu Mingshan looked at Qing Huan with pitiful eyes, "Dear niece, uncle, can I ask you something!"

"What's the matter? Uncle, tell me and see if it's within my ability!" Qing Huan picked up a bottle of mineral water and took a sip.

"Qing Huan's matter must be within your ability." Xu Mingshan looked at Qing Huan flatteringly, "Uncle owes him a sum of money..."

"Uncle—" Qing Huan was astonished, if she hadn't swallowed the water in her mouth early, she would have sprayed it on Xu Mingshan's face.

"Uncle, are you kidding me, why do you owe someone money again?"

Qing Huan remembered that after his uncle got cheated out of the casino last time, he swore that he would never gamble again, "Uncle, are you going to gamble again?"

After Xu Mingshan was silent for a few seconds, he looked at Qing Huan very remorsefully, "Qing Huan, I just made a small gamble, and it wasn't much money, Qing Huan, aren't you the wife of the president-elect now? It's pocket money."

"Uncle——" Qing Huan was puzzled, "Uncle, gambling is a bottomless pit, no matter how rich people are, they can't afford to gamble. Besides, we are still poor, and Fu Jingshi's money is not mine."

Xu Mingshan shook his head repeatedly at Qing Huan's words, "No, no, Qing Huan, you are not poor, when you have Fu Jing..."

"When I wasn't looking for Fu Jing, he went abroad, and he won't come back today." Qing Huan was angry at the fact that her uncle got involved in gambling again. How could there be such an uncle with such a short memory? As a niece, she couldn't say anything...

"Although Fu Jingshi has gone abroad, we can ask his assistant in China to help."

Xu Mingshan took out Qing Huan's cell phone and signaled that she should make this call.

"..." Qing Huan didn't take it, but stared at her uncle with big eyes, "How much did you lose?"

Xu Mingshan smiled awkwardly, "Not much, only 200 million!"

Qing Huan felt her face turn blue, "200 million is not much, what is less?"

"Qing Huan, let's fight." Xu Mingshan gave Qing Huan a look of pleading help, "The people in the casino said that if I don't pay back 200 million before tonight, they will throw me into the sea to feed the sharks, Qing Huan, you know Your uncle can't swim, and if you throw it into the sea, you will die. Qinghuan, you only have one uncle..."

"Okay! Uncle, stop talking, let me call for you."

Qing Huan took the mobile phone, pressed Fu Jingshi's phone number, and waited for the call to be connected, but to no avail, until the signal notification ended, no one answered.

After that, Qing Huan hit him again.

Still no one answered.

She must be busy, Qing Huan thought.

After a while, Qing Huan dialed Su Shikai's cell phone number, "Shikai, my cell phone couldn't get through when I called Fu Jing, there is something I want to ask for your help."

"Young Mistress, I'm a little busy right now. I'll contact you when I'm free...beep..." The sound of the phone signal being cut off made Qing Huan petrify the phone for a few seconds.

Uh, Fu Jing is not here, Su Shikai is too busy to talk to her.

"Uncle, you heard it too, Fu Jingshi couldn't get through the phone, and Su Shikai is busy, so there's nothing I can do..."
