Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband Chapter 142

Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Unique Warmth

The slender and graceful figure, the elegant posture, and that familiar light-blue long dress, along with the same Hermes bag–every trait was pointing to the same person.

That was the woman Ji Yuqiao had seen last time at the cafe, the one who was shopping with Ji Tingyang!

She was the new love interest Ji Yuqiao had seen with Ji Tingyang!

Ji Yuqiao hadn't expected to see her again by Ji Zeqiu's side.

In an instant, Ji Yuqiao remembered Wen Li.

Could this woman be toying with the affections of her two brothers just like Wen Li, playing them both?!

At this thought, Ji Yuqiao was suddenly alarmed and chased after her, leaving the clothes behind.

However, as soon as she stepped out the door, the two figures had vanished.

In the vast mall, she could no longer see their figures, almost as if she had imagined them.

Ji Yuqiao clenched her teeth, pulled out her phone, her fingers almost piercing the screen.

Raining Qiao: “Lin Xu, I found a bad woman playing with the feelings of both my brothers, two-timing them!”

The next day.

Lin Xu was called out by Ji Yuqiao on the pretext of an investigation.

“So you want me to help you investigate who that bad woman really is?!” Lin Xu's expression was somewhat peculiar.

“Yeah, I'd like to look into it myself, but I don't know how to go about it. You know more than I do, so you definitely know how to investigate,” Ji Yuqiao nodded, expressing her absolute trust in her.

“This…” Lin Xu hesitated, “I'd rather be your adviser.”

Even the best of friends should not meddle in family affairs too much.

“All right,” Ji Yuqiao didn't insist.

“Also, it's better not to spread this kind of thing around before we have investigated thoroughly. First, see if you can find the mall's surveillance footage. Maybe you can see that woman's face clearly and figure out if she's the same person,” Lin Xu offered her some advice.

Ji Yuqiao listened intently, her eyes shining with admiration, “You are indeed much better than me!”

Lin Xu's light laughter was tinged with a hint of helplessness.

This was hardly what she would call remarkable.

“If I find out who that bad woman is, I definitely won't let her off!” Ji Yuqiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fist, hammering the table hard.

Lin Xu laughed silently, quietly listening to her rant.

Not until the coffee in the cup was finished did Lin Xu speak up, “Another cup? Or if not, I can take you somewhere.”

“Where to?”

“To get your gift.”

A gift?

Ji Yuqiao was puzzled for a moment but quickly remembered the promise Lin Xu had made to give her a gift if she won the city competition.

She rose abruptly, her enthusiasm evident, “Finished, finished! Where's the gift? Let's hurry!”

After that, Ji Yuqiao followed Lin Xu into an upscale boutique that sold handbags.

Could it be that Lin Xu wanted to gift her a bag?

Ji Yuqiao glanced around, but nothing caught her eye as particularly attractive, nor were there any new models on display.

As soon as Lin Xu entered the store, the manager hurried over to serve her.

“Miss Lin, welcome.”

“Are all the items I bought before ready?” Lin Xu inquired.

Manager: “Everything's ready. Would you like me to have them sent to your house now?”

Lin Xu: “No need, just take me to have a look first.”

“Right this way, please.”

The manager took Lin Xu into the rest room and asked her to wait there for a moment.

After a while, the manager came in pushing a cart hung with handbags.

There were various styles on top, including limited editions from years ago that were no longer available for purchase and popular models from recent years…

Ji Yuqiao looked more and more familiar as she looked.

Why did they look so much like her old handbags?

“Why are you standing there like a fool? Come and see the gift I got you,” Lin Xu smiled.

Ji Yuqiao froze in place, looking at her in disbelief, “These, aren't these the bags I sold when I was out of money? You bought them all back?!”

Because she spent money on Xiao Yu, Ji Tingyang had cut off her allowance.

Being desperately poor, she would rather sell all the bags she had than compromise with Ji Tingyang.

Some bags were birthday gifts from Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu, and some were styles that she particularly liked; they were all things she was reluctant to part with.

But she wasn't as capable as Xiao Yu, who could support himself by working part-time, and she felt frustrated.

She told herself that Xiao Yu was much more important than these bags.

The next day, she sold them all.

However, she never expected to see these bags again!

Ji Yuqiao looked at them with joy filling her heart.

“None of these are the ones you sold originally. I could only buy new ones or the same models. I'm not sure if you will like this gift,” Lin Xu was initially uncertain, but seeing her excitement, she felt that the gift was well chosen.

Ji Yuqiao suddenly hugged Lin Xu tightly, wrapping her arms around her neck, her eyebrows and eyes curved, “I really like it, especially like it. Even if they are not the original ones, I like them!”

“It's good that you like them.” Lin Xu rubbed her head, “Don't sell them off carelessly again, otherwise I will be sad.”

Lin Xu's palm was warm, and Ji Yuqiao couldn't help rubbing against it, her cheeks blushing faintly.

“Don't worry, even if I starve to death, I will definitely not sell them!” Ji Yuqiao looked into Lin Xu's eyes, which were sparkling, and eagerly assured her.

Lin Xu smiled, “If you're going to starve, it's still better to sell them to fill your stomach.”

Ji Yuqiao buried her head in her neck, her voice cheerful with a hint of coquettishness, “I won't sell them, I promise I won't sell them.”

“Do not let love control your life. I just hope these are things that can give you pleasure.”

“Hm?” Ji Yuqiao blinked, not quite understanding.

But Lin Xu was always right.

Whatever it was, nod first and then talk.

Lin Xu chuckled, “Alright, go receive your gift.”

“Just hug me a little longer,” Ji Yuqiao smiled and snuggled into her again.

She just felt that there was a unique warmth to Lin Xu.

Lin Xu rubbed her head again.

Seeing Ji Yuqiao's smiling face brought to her mind the beaming little face of the daughter who lay in the crib as a baby.

That day, Ji Yuqiao and Lin Xu stayed together for a long time.

Because she needed to prepare for the upcoming national competition, Ji Yuqiao had to study and prepare at school, and she wouldn't have the time to meet Lin Xu again before the competition was over.

So when it was time to part, Ji Yuqiao's face was full of reluctance.

However, a few days after parting,

Lin Xu received a call from Ji Yuqiao in the evening; she was crying so hard on the other end of the phone that she could barely catch her breath.

“Lin Xu, what should I do, he said that no matter how hard I try, he will never like me…”

“Where are you now? I'm coming to find you right away,” Lin Xu said anxiously.
