Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1870: Chapter 1864: Gift

And he happened to have some business to attend to, so he went on a business trip directly. He had no idea if that woman had returned with the child yet. Jin Yufeng thought about this as he watched the scenery outside the window speeding by.

He never thought of that woman, but in the past two days, she would occasionally appear in his mind.

“Sir, you’re back.” The butler greeted Jin Yufeng as soon as he saw his car enter.

“Where is my wife?” The first thing Jin Yufeng asked when he got out of the car was about Dongfang Li.

“Sir, this…” The butler hesitated, looking a bit troubled.

“Why are you hemming and hawing? Just answer the question.” Jin Yufeng looked at the usually composed butler, wondering what was going on today.

“Madam and the young master haven’t returned yet.” The butler closed his eyes and resolved to tell the truth.

“Then what about Ah Qi? Have they come back?” Jin Yufeng didn’t expect to hear such an answer. He thought by the time he returned, that timid woman would have come back somehow.

“Ah Qi and the others have returned.” The butler didn’t have any other choice. He also hoped Madam would come back soon. Now that Ms. Zuo is around, she’s either dissatisfied with this or uncomfortable with that. It’s difficult for him, but she is the person the sir cares about, so what can we, the servants, do?

The butler and the others could only accommodate her even if they were unhappy, because if she were dissatisfied with them, they might lose their jobs.

It was much better when Madam was around; she never nitpicked or made things difficult for them, everything was gentle and nice. But now, everything has changed. Sir still doesn’t like coming back home, and when he does, he is with Ms. Zuo. Madam is gloomy and depressed all day, and it’s hard for us servants to watch. But again, we are just servants and have no right to speak.

“Have Ah Qi come to my study.” Jin Yufeng glanced at the butler’s hesitant face and then gave the order.

“Okay, sir, take your time.” The butler has been here for several years. Before the sir was with Ms. Zuo, he was already working here. Even back then, the sir was wealthy and had status, so why didn’t he clarify things with Ms. Zuo? If he had, they wouldn’t have ended up separated later. But now, sigh, better not think too much and get on with the tasks.

“Yufeng, you’re back. Are you very tired?” Zuo Yaqin heard the sound of the car arriving, thinking it must be Jin Yufeng. Sure enough, she saw him coming in just as she came downstairs and greeted him with a smile.

“Hmm.” Jin Yufeng looked at Zuo Yaqin, momentarily seeing a gentle face, who would softly call him, “Brother Jin, you’re back.”

“Yufeng, what are you looking at? Is there something on my face?” Zuo Yaqin asked as she touched her face.

There shouldn’t be anything. She had checked in the mirror before coming downstairs. Her makeup was exquisite and beautiful, so what was he looking at? Could it be… As Zuo Yaqin thought about it, a fleeting look of resentment crossed her face. She thought she had hidden it well, but Jin Yufeng still noticed it, though he thought he was just seeing things.

“I just thought you looked exceptionally beautiful today, so I got a bit lost in thought. What happened that made you so happy?” Jin Yufeng unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt. Now that he was home, he didn’t need to be so formal.

“Yufeng, you forgot, today is my birthday! Didn’t you promise to take me to have some Western food today?” Zuo Yaqin was surprised. Did he forget?

“I didn’t forget. Isn’t it why I’m here to celebrate your birthday with you? Here, take this. Do you like it?” Jin Yufeng took out an exquisite box from his pocket and placed it in front of Zuo Yaqin.

“It’s a necklace.” Zuo Yaqin recognized the necklace as a limited edition one, very rare nationwide. Even when she was abroad before, she couldn’t buy it. She didn’t expect Jin Yufeng could get it. How did he manage to do that?
