After the divorce, I became a rich girl

"Hmm..." Li Jiawei felt warm in her heart and was instantly touched. She truly felt Jing Qiu's care and love for her.

Li Ronghua opened the car door, Li Jiawei got in, and then curled herself up in the soft seat, her whole body trembling, not sure if it was because of the cold or the nervousness in her heart.

Hu Quan quickly adjusted the air conditioner in the car, raising the temperature a few degrees, and then found that Li Jiawei's complexion looked a little better.

Outside the car, Li Ronghua made a phone call, "Brother, I have already picked up Jiawei."

"Well, Jing Qiu and I will take her back to the old house first."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the old house."

After hanging up the phone, Li Ronghua sat in the passenger seat, turned to Li Jiawei, and gently comforted her, "It's okay, we'll go home now."

"Okay." Li Jiawei agreed softly.

As Hu Quan started the car, Li Jiawei leaned back in the seat tiredly, looking at the flowing scenery outside the window, then slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep. She was too tired.

When she woke up, she gently pulled off the cashmere blanket and sat up straight. Outside the car window, the setting sun slowly sank, the light became soft, the sky was dyed orange-red, the trees and houses in the garden were covered with a light golden color, and the whole world seemed to be embraced by warm colors.

Li Jiawei got out of the car and stretched. The breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness and the afterglow of the sunset, which sprinkled on her face, bringing incomparable comfort and tranquility. The anxiety and fatigue of the day seemed to disappear at this moment.

Hu Quan noticed Li Jiawei getting off the car not far away and ran over hurriedly, "Ms. Jiawei, you're awake. How was your sleep?"

"Uncle Hu, I slept well. I'm sorry to bother you." Li Jiawei responded politely.

"No, it's not a problem. The old lady, the second gentleman and the lady are all in the living room. The old lady told you to go directly to the living room when you wake up." Hu Quan explained.

"Okay, I'll change my clothes and come over." Li Jiawei nodded, turned and walked towards her room.

Li Jiawei walked into her room and opened the cloakroom. She felt unreal every time she came in.

She couldn't help but wonder whether these expensive clothes, jewelry and bags really belonged to her. However, no matter how many times she asked herself, there was no definite answer, and she lived every day in a daze.

After changing her clothes, Li Jiawei stood in front of the mirror and examined herself. Although her figure was not slim, she was no longer bloated, and her complexion became rosy and shiny. Her long black hair was casually tied up with a jade hairpin. Against the background of the off-white home clothes, she looked simple yet fashionable, and the whole person looked gentle and graceful.

Li Jiawei was a little dazed. The person in the mirror seemed to be made unreal by the money. Can a person really change so much in just a few months? Is this really her?

Li Jiawei walked into the yard where Zhang Qiushuang lived and entered the living room, where Zhang Qiushuang, Li Hongxing, and Li Ronghua and his wife were already sitting there chatting.

"Grandma, uncle, dad, mom, good evening." Li Jiawei greeted politely.

Zhang Qiushuang smiled and responded, "How did you sleep?"

"Very good." Li Jiawei replied.

"That's good. Your dad wanted to wake you up, but I stopped him. Are you used to sleeping in the car? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Zhang Qiu Shuang asked with concern.

"No, the car is very spacious." Li Jiawei responded.

Li Hongxing pointed to the seat opposite and motioned Li Jiawei to sit down. "Jiawei, come and sit down."

Li Jiawei walked over and sat down properly. Although Li Hongxing was an amiable elder in her eyes, Li Jiawei still felt a little nervous when she thought of his identity.

"Are you scared today?" Li Hongxing asked.

"Fortunately, the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission have a good attitude." Li Jiawei answered truthfully.

Li Hongxing explained, "I consulted with the comrades of the Commission for Discipline Inspection to learn about the situation. Someone reported that you recently purchased a large number of luxury goods, and a huge amount of money of tens of millions suddenly deposited into your account, which is seriously inconsistent with your daily income. They suspected that you embezzled public funds and accepted bribes. However, the reason has been found out now, and there is nothing wrong with you. Don't think too much, and don't feel psychologically burdened."

"Thank you, uncle. I'm sorry for bothering you with my affairs." Li Jiawei said gratefully.

As the head of a province, Li Hongxing personally asked about her case to the Xishi Discipline Inspection Commission, which made Li Jiawei flattered and more grateful to this serious elder.

Although she did not know much about the complexity and subtleties of the officialdom, she knew that if she did not handle the case properly, it could become a handle for others to attack her. However, Li Hongxing still stood up to clarify and inquire about the case. This family affection and trust made Li Jiawei feel warm and at ease.

Li Hongxing smiled and comforted Li Jiawei, "What are you talking about? Although you are my niece, if you really break the law, I can't save you. This is a matter of principle. But if you are innocent, no one can wrongly accuse you. I will support you."

"Thank you, uncle." Li Jiawei felt relieved after listening to Li Hongxing's domineering remarks. This was probably the confidence behind what others said.

Zhang Qiushuang noticed Li Jiawei's nervousness, so she changed the subject and said with a smile, "Well, Jiawei was safe today, we should celebrate." Then, she told Sister Liu, "Sister Liu, set the table."

Li Jiawei walked over to help Zhang Qiushuang up. Zhang Qiushuang gently patted the back of Li Jiawei's hand and said, "Sister Liu made your favorite sweet and sour pork tonight."

Li Jiawei helped Zhang Qiushuang to the restaurant. Seeing that Mrs. Liu had served the sweet and sour pork, she thanked Mrs. Liu, “Thank you, Mrs. Liu.”

"Ms. Jiawei, you are so polite." Mrs. Liu responded.

During the meal, Li Ronghua suddenly made a suggestion: "Jiawei, why don't you stop working at the Finance Bureau?"

Li Jiawei stopped picking up food after hearing this. She has worked in the Finance Bureau for a long time and has a deep reliance and familiarity with this job.

She was worried about whether she would be able to adapt to the new job and life once she left this familiar environment. She admitted that her connection with society seemed to be getting less and less. Apart from doing forms and filling in forms, she felt that it was difficult for her to do other work. She had an indescribable resistance to contacting new people or things.

Li Jiawei looked at Li Ronghua and his wife, and after hesitating for a moment, she expressed her thoughts, "I have no plans to leave the Finance Bureau." As soon as she finished speaking, the air in the restaurant seemed to suddenly freeze. Li Ronghua and his wife looked at each other, seeming a little surprised by her decision.

Li Jiawei felt the subtle change in the atmosphere. She put down her chopsticks, looked up at the people at the table, and said sincerely, "I want to work on it for a while longer. Maybe things will be better after this period of time." She was not actually sure what would get better, but compared to her current confused and helpless self, she wanted to give herself some more time to sort out her thoughts and adapt to the changes.

Li Jiawei's words eased the atmosphere at the table a little. Jing Qiu smiled and used the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of sweet and sour pork for Li Jiawei, saying, "If you like it, keep making it. Mom supports you."
