Chapter 37: Huā Lìyīng's Invitation

  After leaving the training base, Yu Han hailed a taxi and left, then called Hua Liying to say that he was coming over now and preparing to eat for free. When Hua Liying found out, she was delighted and couldn't wait for Yu Han to come over every day to eat for free. Then she specially went to re-dress herself, trying to show her most beautiful side in front of Yu Han.

  A woman's beauty is for her own pleasure.

  Hua Lianying instructed the kitchen to make a few more signature dishes, and the cooks didn't need to guess that Yu Han would definitely come over. Just from Hua Lianying's relieved expression, it was clear.

  After arriving, the waiters came forward to greet Yu Han, enthusiastically and informally. Yu Han was also approachable and chatted with them back and forth. During dinner, Hua Liying asked: "Aren't you supposed to be in military training? How did you come out?"

  "Boot camp is nothing but boring, a complete waste of youth and life. It's better to take advantage of this time to go out and have some fun," said Yu Han.

  Hua Lianying praised: "The thoughts of a superior person are always so extraordinary."

  Yu Han smiled and said: "Hua Jie, is there a good place to introduce me? I want to find a suitable job and earn some money."

  Hua Liying was stunned and asked after a moment: "What kind of job are you looking for?"

  Yu Han spread his hands and said: "I don't have a special skill, I'm depressed about this."

  Hua Lianying batted her eyelashes and then suggested, "With your skills, opening a psychological clinic would be a huge hit. In today's society, people with mental illnesses are everywhere."

  Yu Han nodded and said: "I've also considered this, but I don't know where it would be more suitable to open."

  "The fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, you don't have to worry about this at all." Hua Liying took a sip of her drink and continued: "I think you should open a store near Fudan University, it's convenient for your studies and also close to my home."

  Huā Lì Yíng said this sentence is easy to misinterpret, but she can say such words to Yǔ Hán, it's clear what kind of thoughts she has towards him.

  Yu Han finished eating, wiped his mouth with a paper towel, lit a cigarette and said: "I don't have any money on me, I'll have to borrow some from Hua Jie first, and then pay her back when I earn some."

  "Hua Liying waved her hand and said, "What are you talking about? You've helped me a lot, I'm grateful. Let's leave this matter to me, this afternoon I'll accompany you to look at houses, find one with a good geographical location and environment, and then buy a set of home appliances."

  "That's it," said Yu Han.

  "Psychological experts are also a relatively lucrative industry at present, but their level is not comparable to yours. After the store's facade is settled, it's time for promotion. I have a friend who does media promotion, and he can help out." Huā Lìyīng said, making very thorough arrangements.

  "Hua Jie is indeed a businesswoman, considering all aspects so thoroughly." Yu Han praised with a smile.

  Hua Lianying smiled and said, "It's all about slowly crawling and climbing over time."

  After lunch, the weather was too hot, Hua Liying suggested going to her home for a visit, saying that they had known each other for so long, and Yu Han had never been to her home before. She also said that Zhou Jia was very eager to meet this "godly brother" of hers, who always mentioned him in front of her. In this way, Yu Han did not have the opportunity or reason to refuse.

  Some people are fond of Lolita, some are fond of Onee-san, and some are fond of beautiful women. Everyone's aesthetic views are different, so their tastes naturally vary too. Yu Han's taste is a bit hard to grasp, he likes all types, without any particular inclination, as long as it's simple and true, the rest doesn't matter.

  Hua Lianying's high-end apartment, over 100 square meters, three bedrooms and two living rooms, the decoration is quite luxurious. A house like this in Shanghai, where land is gold, would cost at least 3 million yuan. It can be seen that Hua Lianying has made a lot of money from her chain restaurants over the years. However, such a spacious house, with only her and her daughter living there, feels a bit deserted.

  "Please sit down, have a drink or something. When I'm alone, I occasionally have two cups of white wine to drown my sorrows." Huā Lì Yíng said with a embarrassed smile.

  "Drink something, we still have to go see a house this afternoon," said Yu Han.

  "Hmm, you take a look around first, I'll go get it." Huā Lìyīng said.

  Yu Han looked around and nodded constantly, thinking to himself, when can I also buy a house in Shanghai?

  "All I heard was Hua Liying exclaiming, 'I forgot, we finished all the drinks at home last night, only Maotai is left. I don't have a habit of drinking tea and there's no tea leaves at home.'"

  Yu Han smiled and said, "Then let's not drink it. Anyway, I'm not very thirsty."

  Hua Lianying let out a low, melancholic sigh, tinged with disappointment and despair. She walked into the living room and sat down on the sofa, while Yu Han also sat down and started smoking. For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, so Hua Lianying turned on the TV and listlessly flipped through channels.

  Why is it said that tenderness is like water? In fact, it's just a woman's ambiguous focus.

  Let's talk about Hua Lianying, a woman in her thirties, a divorced young mother, who is beautiful and knows how to struggle. She has suffered a lot over the years. I don't know which beast said that women around thirty are the most flavorful, with a mature charm that makes men linger and forget everything.

  Running a chain of restaurants, this is the real deal with a car, house and savings, can be called an extreme product of a noble lady, a rare species among rich women. Most men would be moved by such a woman, but Yu Han was one of the few exceptions, not being moved by her, nor having any improper thoughts about her, just purely caring for her, not wanting her to suffer anymore, and living a stable life.

  But in Hua Lianying's eyes, his concern was just a euphemism for flirting. Think about it, a divorced woman who has been pursued by many admirers for years, but they all value her money and body, the cruel reality makes her extremely disgusted. The loneliness, emptiness, and cold torture have ravaged her body, mind, and soul. Now she is like a parched field that urgently needs a refreshing rain to nourish it.

  So, Hua Liying would have evil thoughts in her heart, specially inviting Yu Han to her home, creating a space for the two of them, and suggesting they drink wine to add to the long-lost romantic atmosphere. However, Yu Han's attitude made her fiery passion turn into partly cloudy skies, then overcast skies, then a blizzard, finally dropping to sub-zero temperatures.

  However, Hua Lianying, who had experienced many storms, would not give up on this rare opportunity. She was defeated once, but she came again, and with determination, she believed that as long as she persevered, she could definitely make Yu Han's "sharp blade" appear. And so, after thinking for half a day, she prepared to take action again.
