Chapter 651 The Vicious Ex-Wife Who Couldn't Share Hardship (14)
"Why look at him if you're not familiar with him?"
Jin Xirong continued her hand movements without stopping, her eyes fixed on the person beneath her.
Although Mu Zhou showed no outward sign of distress, he couldn't help but inwardly grumble.
After asking so many questions and going around in circles, it turns out this was where she was waiting.
She was silent for a few seconds, seemingly engrossed in his technique, and asked in return as if she hadn't heard him clearly:
"What? Looking at whom?"
Jin Xirong patiently repeated it, and Mu Zhou finally let out a drawn-out "Oh".
"Jin Zheyu?" She seemed to recall for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Did I see him?"
"You saw it."
Jin Xirong answered affirmatively.
"It's around eight o'clock."
he added.
Mu Zhou couldn't help but laugh this time.
Her shoulders trembled with laughter, and Jin Xirong stopped, frowning as he looked at her.
She hasn't answered his question yet.
After Mu Zhou finished laughing, he turned his head and rested it on his arm.
"You remember it so clearly? I had forgotten. I probably just glanced at it casually."
She swayed her hips slightly, signaling him to continue.
Jin Xirong kneaded the area again, but a hint of doubt flickered in her eyes.
Was it really just a casual glance?
What a coincidence that he saw it.
His eyes were dark and gloomy, shrouded in a sense of danger.
Originally, he found it amusing to see Jin Zheyu acting like a clown, fantasizing about being the mantis stalking the cicada while unaware of the oriole behind, which is why he kept him around for a while longer.
But since he's so bold as to approach Mu Zhou, there's no need to keep him around in the way.
Mu Zhou shifted his body again, indicating that he didn't need to continue.
Jin Xirong withdrew her hand, but Mu Zhou groaned twice.
It doesn't sound very pleasant.
"Where does it hurt?"
he asked.
Mu Zhou sighed and sat up:
"I feel uncomfortable, I feel uncomfortable all over. I miss my mattress, I miss my big villa, I miss the days when I was waited on."
Jin Xirong's eyes flickered.
"The company is doing well; we just closed a big deal yesterday. If you like, I can buy back your old villa."
"what?!"
Mu Zhou sat up in surprise, propping himself up.
"Really?! You've become rich so quickly?!"
“Yes,” Jin Xirong nodded, “It was sealed off before, but the contents haven’t been auctioned off yet, so they should still be there.”
"Great, my mattress and my sofa are finally back."
The smile on her face was pure and sincere.
Jin Xirong couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips into a smile.
Are they that easily satisfied?
Mu Zhou's expression froze for a moment.
She asked him:
"Are your funds running smoothly? That villa didn't come cheap at auction. Don't go bankrupt just to save face, or you'll lose more than you gain."
Mu Zhou didn't understand business, but she did understand the difference between eating meat only once and eating meat every day.
Killing the goose that lays the golden eggs is unacceptable.
A look of distress crossed her brow:
"If you're short of money... I can actually contribute some."
She spoke reluctantly, yet with a hint of heartache.
She looked toward the walk-in closet.
There are still a few valuable bags...
Although I'm reluctant to part with it, living in a big villa is still better than living in a big villa.
Speaking of which, when she bought the house, she had no concept of money and even thought about buying the villa back.
After all, she's used to living there.
It was a graduation gift her father bought for her before she got married; the location was good and the apartment layout was nice.
She also participated in the entire interior design.
Later, the family went bankrupt, and the Jin family bought the house as a betrothal gift, but the house remained under the Jin family's name.
So she never moved and lived there alone.
She was attached to the house, so when she moved out, she thought the Jin family could temporarily mortgage the house, and she could buy it back later.
But to my surprise, after getting to know her better, I found out that she didn't have nearly enough money. Even after selling all those bags and jewelry, she only had a small fraction of what she had.
However, since Jin Xirong is paying the majority of the cost, it's only a small token of her appreciation if she contributes a little.
So he got out of bed and went straight to the walk-in closet.
Seeing that she had suddenly left, still barefoot, Jin Xirong frowned and followed her.
He even remembered to carry her slippers.
Standing before the wardrobe, Mu Zhou hesitated, undecided.
Which one should we sell?
"These two crocodile Birkin bags are worth over two million, and this one is worth over one and a half million... But this one is so versatile, I don't want to sell it."
"This wooden bag is probably worth a little over a million. How about we sell it? But this one is very rare..."
She muttered to herself, "I can't bear to sell any of them."
She has already sold a lot, and has given up almost everything she could.
The rest were all her favorites.
Jin Xirong placed the slippers beside her feet:
"Put on your shoes first."
The air conditioner was set so low, and the floor was especially cold, yet she wasn't worried about getting an upset stomach.
After watching her put it on, he glanced at Mu Zhou's closet.
Then she remembered the time she ran into her secretly selling bags.
He closed the glass cabinet door and looked at Mu Zhou, saying:
"No need, I have enough money."
Actually, Jin Xirong originally thought that Mu Zhou would be reminded of the past and unwilling to return to the familiar place, so she didn't mention it.
He thought she liked the little house.
Unexpectedly, she still prioritizes enjoying life.
But that’s fine too.
She's suited to a carefree life, with her mind only on eating, drinking, and having fun.
Jin Xirong was once excited that both of them had unspeakable dark sides.
But now, he doesn't want to see Mu Zhou associated with any negative shadows.
She should be basking in the sunlight.
Jin Xirong suddenly asked:
Have you been to the hospital recently?
"Yes, I recently saw a psychologist. They think I'm sick and have psychological problems."
Her composure surprised Jin Xirong.
Then she continued:
"Do they think I'm stupid? They're trying to hide it, but do they think I can't tell they're giving me psychological therapy? Whatever."
Talking to a psychologist can be quite stress-relieving.
Looking at her slightly smug expression, Jin Xirong suddenly realized that she might be more resilient than he had imagined.
He still doesn't know her very well.

Mu Zhou moved back to her large villa.
She took a deep breath, completely captivated:
"I always feel that the air here is better."
"The oxygen content here is indeed quite high."
Jin Xirong gave a very serious answer.
"Really? No wonder."
Mu Zhou was surprised that his casual remark had actually come true.
As she sat down on the sofa, she noticed that Jin Xirong's belongings were also in her home.
Is he moving here too?
I thought he would continue living in that little house...
But then again, he was the one who bought it in the first place.
Will he charge her rent?
Jin Xirong could tell what Mu Zhou was thinking just by looking at her expression.
So all she cared about was moving back, and she didn't consider his situation at all.
Jin Xirong was both amused and annoyed by her betrayal.
But the thought of arguing with her made her wonder what kind of twisted logic she would come up with.
So we changed the subject directly:
"The house is now registered in your name."
A single sentence jolted Mu Zhou awake.
She naturally couldn't care about anything else.
