Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire

Lu Jiaxin still went to Bali Island for vacation. This time she went first, and waited for Nie Zhan to finish his work and join her. Of course, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t make it, as long as it wouldn’t delay her holiday. As she was packing, Zong Shimeng called: "Jiaxin, where are you going on vacation? Can I go with you?"

She knew Lu Jiaxin was going on vacation alone this time; if she was going with Nie Zhan, she wouldn’t have said this.

Lu Jiaxin was surprised: "You’re going with me? Who will take care of the kids at home?"

Zong Shimeng’s tone was a bit cold: "The kids have their grandparents and father; they don’t lack me. Jiaxin, tell me which flight it is, and I’ll have someone buy the ticket." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveI(F)ire.net

Lu Jiaxin didn’t understand what had happened, but since Zong Shimeng was in a bad mood and wanted to get out, it was a good thing: "I’ll have my secretary buy your ticket. If you insist on going, let’s meet at the airport at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning."

"Okay."

"Jiaxin, don’t tell Nie Zhan about this. I don’t want anyone to know I’m traveling with you, or I won’t be able to leave the house."

"Okay."

When Nie Zhan returned, Lu Jiaxin didn’t mention this. Sister Shimeng, who was always so good-tempered, was actually upset enough to want to get away, which meant it was no small matter.

While they were walking, Nie Zhan asked, "What’s wrong, why so quiet today? Did something happen back home again?"
