Chapter 166: Passbook

Lu Qingyun stopped the car and got out.

Ling Yao followed suit, getting out of the car as well.

Yang Qiuhong and a group of other wives watched them from afar.

“Captain Lu is so considerate to his wife!”

“Well, what man doesn’t like beautiful women?” One wife scoffed.

Another wife chimed in, “Exactly, Captain Lu is a man, so naturally he’s no exception.”

“What’s the point of being beautiful? Even the most beautiful face can’t fill your stomach.”

“Besides, she’s so mean. In my opinion, Captain Lu will divorce her sooner or later!”

Hearing everyone’s criticism of Ling Yao, Yang Qiuhong was secretly delighted, but on the surface, she pretended to be conciliatory,

 “Stop it all of you. It’s not good if Captain Lu hears you.”

“What’s wrong with that? She clearly used tricks to get you fired, why are you afraid of her!

Sister Qiuhong, she bullied you, just ask your Commander Wu to go to her husband, Captain Lu, and settle the score.”

“Sister Qiuhong, you’re just too kind. How can you be so meek and easily bullied?”

“People are already bullying you to your face, if you don’t fight back, she will only become more and more oppressive.”

Yang Qiuhong raised her hand, gently wiping away the nonexistent tears from the corner of her eyes, her voice choked with emotion,

 “I know you’re all trying to help me, but please stop.

 It’s really okay if I suffer a little. Everyone, please disperse and go back to prepare dinner. The men will be back soon.”

Ling Yao turned her head and glanced at the group of people not far away, then retracted her gaze, and walked towards the house.

She was no longer the same person she was in her previous life. This time, whoever bullied her, she would not be soft-hearted.

Closing the courtyard door, Ling Yao stepped into the house, but was surprised to find that there were many more items in the house than the last time she was here.

There was a television, a refrigerator, a tape recorder, and even a washing machine.

“I bought all these appliances yesterday. When you’re bored, you can watch TV, listen to music to pass the time.

 I also bought a lot of tapes, they’re in that box.” Lu Qingyun pointed to a box next to the tape recorder.

Ling Yao retracted her gaze, then she flew like a happy bird into Lu Qingyun’s warm and broad embrace.

She held him tightly, looked up at him, “Why are you so good to me?”

“You silly girl, you’re my most beloved wife, of course I have to treat you wholeheartedly. Who else could I be good to?”

Lu Qingyun gently lowered his head and pecked Ling Yao’s smooth and delicate forehead, then took out a passbook from his pocket and gently handed it to Ling Yao,

 “This will be yours to keep from now on.”

Ling Yao took the passbook and opened it. When she saw the number displayed on the passbook, she couldn’t help but be surprised,

 “How did you get so much money?”

You see, Lu Qingyun’s monthly salary was only one hundred and fifty yuan. Even if you include all kinds of bonuses, it wouldn’t be more than two hundred yuan.

But there were actually over two hundred thousand yuan in this passbook.

In this era, having this kind of wealth would definitely make you a true tycoon.

“I invested in some businesses. Department stores in Beijing, and movie theaters, I have shares in them.”

“You’re so amazing!” Ling Yao couldn’t help but give Lu Qingyun a thumbs up, her eyes filled with admiration.

It was rare to find someone with such business acumen in this era. Most people preferred a secure job, taking a fixed salary.

If she hadn’t been reborn and seen the prosperity of the future, knowing that the 1980s was a golden age, she wouldn’t have invested in business.

Hearing the praise, Lu Qingyun’s lips curled into a smile, deliberately leaning closer to Ling Yao, his eyes flashing with a mischievous glint, “Then… I’m so amazing, is there any reward?”

Ling Yao’s face instantly turned red, but she quickly recovered.

She wriggled out of Lu Qingyun’s embrace like a nimble eel and playfully stuck her tongue out at him.

“Of course there is. I’ll go make you a delicious meal.” With that, Ling Yao walked into the kitchen.

Lu Qingyun’s gaze followed Ling Yao, watching her back, a smile of utter adoration spread across his face.

Walking into the kitchen, Ling Yao casually opened the refrigerator door. Inside, there were all kinds of fresh vegetables, fish, and meat…

On the kitchen counter, various seasonings were neatly arranged.

Ling Yao picked up the apron hanging on the wall and tied it around her waist, then she began to busy herself…

Lu Qingyun took Ling Yao’s clothes one by one from the luggage bag and hung them in the room’s closet.

When he got to Ling Yao’s underwear, his face turned red as if it could bleed, and many inappropriate images popped into his mind.

He felt his nose get hot, and a warm sensation flowed down from his nose.

Ling Yao pushed open the door. She was about to ask Lu Qingyun if he wanted the ribs braised or sweet and sour, when she saw Lu Qingyun with blood flowing from his nose, still holding her underwear in his hand, and her face instantly flushed.

She quickly rushed forward, snatched her underwear from Lu Qingyun’s hand, and put it behind her,

 “Wait, I’ll hang it myself. You lie down, I’ll help you stop the bleeding.”

Lu Qingyun’s face was flushed red, extremely embarrassed, “I’m fine, I can do it myself, you go busy yourself.”

This was the first time he had seen a girl’s underwear.

 He originally thought it was no different from his own, but now he realized it was completely different, especially the bra.

Just looking at it made his heart race and his mind wander.

Ling Yao walked to the closet and stuffed the underwear into the closet haphazardly.

This underwear was made by her own hands, following the styles of the future world. She couldn’t adapt to the underwear of this era.

She had also carefully sewn a set of extremely seductive pajamas, but she put them in her space, planning to change into them when she went to bed at night.

Now that she and Lu Qingyun had gotten their marriage certificate, tonight should be their wedding night, so naturally, they had to add some special atmosphere.

Walking back to Lu Qingyun, she gently tapped his nose.

Lu Qingyun’s gaze uncontrollably shifted to Ling Yao’s chest, and the image of that bra on her flashed in his mind.

The blood he had just stopped almost started flowing again. He quickly stood up and rushed to the bathroom, “I’ll go wash my face.”

Ling Yao watched Lu Qingyun’s hasty retreat and couldn’t help but laugh.

Lu Qingyun heard Ling Yao’s silver bell-like laughter outside, and a joyful smile unconsciously spread across his lips. It’s great!

He and Yaoyao are husband and wife now.
