Chapter 882 - 302: Bai Weixi’s Dilemma and the Shocking Mother-in-law

While Li Yuan and Zhong Tingyue were arranging with a real estate agent to view a house.

Thousands of miles away, in the old hometown of Northern Anhui, Beimeng County City.

Bai Weixi sat at home in a daze, looking at the message on her phone, feeling very confused and conflicted.

On the evening of the fourth day of the New Year, during a high school reunion, because Xu Zhi glanced at Wang Yuchen’s phone, it led to a series of events, leaving her feeling drained these days, unable to even sleep well.

Every time she tried to sleep, the words Wang Yuchen shouted at her that night surfaced in her mind.

This made her doubt herself.

Did the good friend, good classmate, and bestie she had known for seven or eight years always see her this way?

It caused her to lose a good friend.

But looking at the apology text sent by Wang Yuchen, she hesitated.

"Yuchen was also angry that night because of breaking up with Xu Zhi. Should I forgive her?"

Bai Weixi murmured to herself, her heart very complex.

Wang Yuchen’s apology was very sincere, with many words in each message.

[Bai, I’m really sorry, that night I was in a bad mood because I broke up with Xu Zhi and was drunk and not thinking straight. I said a lot of nonsense, and every mistake was my fault. Please forgive me this once, okay?... We’ve known each other since middle school, for so many years, you’re my only best friend, I don’t want to lose you...]

Staring at the text messages on her phone, Bai Weixi was conflicted for a long time but still felt she should give Wang Yuchen another chance.

She only had this long-time friend and didn’t want to lose this friend because of this...

Bai Weixi held her phone, thought for a long time, edited many words, and deleted them one by one.

In the end, she only left a "Hmm," and clicked send.

After replying, Bai Weixi looked toward the distant north, as if she could see through the miles to Li Yuan, who was shopping and having fun with Zhong Tingyue, feeling a little sour and longing.

"Brother, I also want you to accompany me and go on a trip..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the bedroom door.

"Weixi, you’re not asleep, are you?"

At the door, Yang Jinyu’s voice came through.

"No, mom!" Bai Weixi replied.

Yang Jinyu pushed the door open and looked at her daughter sitting idly at the desk, feeling a bit puzzled.

For the past two days, her beloved daughter had been looking absent-minded, making her very worried.

At first, she thought her daughter had fought with Li Yuan and was upset, but her daughter said that wasn’t it and was unwilling to elaborate.

Seeing Yang Jinyu enter, Bai Weixi forced a smile, collected her thoughts, and asked with a smile:

"Mom, it’s so late, do you need something?"

Yang Jinyu walked over, stroked her beloved daughter’s long black hair, and reminded her:

"Weixi, if something is bothering you, you can tell mom. Maybe I can help you think it through."

Bai Weixi shook her head, smiled gently, and spoke softly:

"Mom, I’m really fine, it’s all good now."

Seeing her daughter didn’t want to talk about it, Yang Jinyu didn’t force her, but organized her thoughts and tentatively asked.

"Weixi, there’s something I want to ask you, is that okay?"

Bai Weixi looked puzzled, not knowing what her mother wanted to ask, but nodded anyway.

"Mom, what is it, go ahead."

Feeling a bit embarrassed about what she wanted to ask, Yang Jinyu hesitated.

If she hadn’t already made a promise, she really wouldn’t have brought this up.

"Well, Weixi, I wanted to ask, do you have any money on hand right now?"

Hearing Yang Jinyu’s question, Bai Weixi was taken aback, perplexed as to why her mother would ask this.

Could it be that the family is facing some difficulty?

But that doesn’t seem right either; even though her parents are just ordinary teachers, their combined salary should be quite a lot. In a small place like their hometown, normal social expenses aren’t so extravagant...

Bai Weixi asked, her expression slightly worried:

"Yes, mom, why?"

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Yang Jinyu started: "Uh, so how much do you have?"

"How much?" Bai Weixi was once again taken aback. She really didn’t know how much money she had.

Li Yuan had given her a bank card, and she spent as she wished, not caring how much was in it.

Often, when she went out with Li Yuan for shopping or meals, it was Li Yuan who paid.

She rarely went out with just her roommates or friends, and didn’t spend much...

"Mom, I don’t know either, I haven’t really kept track."

Bai Weixi was stunned for a moment before answering.

"Mom, is there something at home that needs money?"

Yang Jinyu looked deeply at her beloved daughter, feeling a bit complex.

Her beloved daughter was wonderful, but just a bit unaware, not even knowing how much money she had on her.

In that case, she would be even less aware of Li Yuan’s financial situation.

How can that be?

She must cultivate her daughter’s financial awareness to plan for the future.

If one day Li Yuan changes his mind, or doesn’t intend to marry her daughter, having money will help her live comfortably for the rest of her life...

Thinking of this, Yang Jinyu earnestly advised:

"Weixi, I know Li Yuan treats you well, and you don’t lack money to spend. But you also need to be cautious."

"Li Yuan has more than just you; there are other women. There are things you need to fight for yourself... You should have financial awareness and save some private money just in case."
