Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 441

And the old chief having a daughter late in life, although he knew it was his daughter’s fault, he still targeted He Jinxuan.

He Jinxuan wasn’t foolish either. After a few times, he realized what was happening. Just as he got injured during a mission, he decisively made a decision to change his career.

After hearing He Jinxuan’s words, Xinyan felt uncomfortable: "So what happened later, what about Jian Minru?"

He Jinxuan sighed: "In the end, she still married Lu Changjun."

Xinyan was a bit puzzled: "After all that, Lu Changjun still married her?"

He Jinxuan knew what Xinyan was thinking. After the car made a turn, He Jinxuan continued: "Lu Changjun grew up with Jian Minru; the two families are considered old acquaintances. If it weren’t for the Jian family protecting the Lu family all those years, there might have been trouble. You understand what I mean.

Moreover, Lu Changjun originally quite liked Jian Minru. After I changed careers, the Lu and Jian families swiftly organized a wedding for them. As for whether they are happy afterward, I’m not sure."

Xinyan sighed: "Lu Changjun was pretty unlucky too."

Suddenly, Xinyan thought of something: "Are they still in the military district here in the Capital? Will you meet them in the future?"

He Jinxuan shook his head: "I heard from my comrades that after they got married, Lu Changjun was transferred to the South, and Jian Minru followed him there."

Xinyan looked out the window, feeling a little gloomy: "That’s right, things turned out that way, staying would probably make them a laughingstock."

He Jinxuan noticed Xinyan’s unhappiness and felt anxious: "Yanyan, are you angry?"

Xinyan didn’t know what to say either. She indeed felt indignant for He Jinxuan; it was almost like destroying someone’s career. At the same time, she felt a bit unhappy herself, though she couldn’t pinpoint exactly why.

He Jinxuan reached out and held Xinyan’s hand resting on her leg: "It’s all in the past. Without that, I wouldn’t have met you."

One sentence made Xinyan feel a bit better: "Talk like that more often."

Soon, the two arrived at the department store. Most of the goods she got in the South were upscale products, so items like blankets, enamel washbasins, meal tanks, and thermoses for school had to be bought here.

As they walked and stopped along the way, whenever Xinyan found something she liked, He Jinxuan would unhesitatingly ask the salesperson to issue a receipt.

Xinyan playfully looked at He Jinxuan: "Does your wallet hurt?"

He Jinxuan smiled: "Earning money is for spending on you. Only when you’re happy do I feel accomplished."

Xinyan smiled sweetly: "Wow, you’re getting better at talking. Where did you learn this?"

He Jinxuan looked at her playful demeanor, wanting to pinch her cheek, but unfortunately, his hands were full: "I’m speaking sincerely, heaven and earth can attest."

Their happiness was noticed by two girls shopping in the distance. One of them was full of envy, while the other’s eyes were filled with jealousy, and she remarked, "So frivolous in public, truly shameless."

Because they were far away, and there were many customers now, the chatter was too loud, so Xinyan didn’t hear them. Naturally, she didn’t know she would encounter such snobbishness while shopping.

He Jinxuan looked at Xinyan: "Think about if there’s anything else we haven’t bought?"

Xinyan glanced at the things he was holding: "That’s about it. How about you make a run first, I’ll look around, and we meet by the stairs later."

He Jinxuan understood that if they bought more, he really couldn’t carry it all: "Alright then, be careful. I’ll be right back."

Xinyan waved him off with a smile: "Hurry up and go."

Watching him go downstairs, she turned towards the men’s clothing section, thinking her dad didn’t have many casual clothes. With time still early, she figured she could check if there was anything suitable for him. Autumn was coming, and she also wanted to pick out some outfits for He Jinxuan and Ye Silai, Ye Siyan.

Just as she turned around, she bumped into Li Yutong, who happened to be the girl filled with jealousy earlier. Finding an outlet for her feelings, she remarked, "Are you blind?"

Originally, Xinyan was about to apologize, but she swallowed it back: "Seems you’re really blinded, otherwise how could you say something like that. Is this your home?"
