Chapter 1201 Stimulated
After such a long time, Mi Xiaoran has not forgotten Ning Weimin.
Reason told him that he and Ning Weimin had parted ways and had gone their own paths in life. There would no longer be any connection, and there should no longer be any connection.
But after all, Ning Weimin was the person with whom she had the deepest emotions during her youth, and the person who really changed her destiny.
If it weren’t for Ning Weimin, she would never be what she is today.
In her heart, Ning Weimin, who worked with her in the same department of Chongwenmen Hotel and asked her about the procedures for receiving customers with a student attitude, still lived tenaciously in the deepest part of her heart.
Just like a seed, it has taken root, blossomed and bore fruit in her heart.
All she could pull out were branches, but the roots were deeply rooted in her heart, and they were getting deeper and deeper.
She tried to put it all out of her heart, but all she got in return was pain.
It hurts to the bone!
Even though he is already married, he has been living peacefully and peacefully in the United States for some time.
Even she herself thought that she had completely let go of Ning Weimin and left him behind.
But at some inadvertent moment, maybe I saw a scene on the roadside, a pedestrian, a bicycle...
Even passing by a Chinese restaurant, I smelled the odor wafting out of it. The taste of food.
She would still be confused and suddenly think of the person who regarded her feelings and self-esteem as nothing and stabbed her heart severely.
Therefore, Mi Xiaoran's attitude towards Ning Weimin is actually quite contradictory.
Don't say that she never figured out what she liked about Ning Weimin when she was so obsessed with him.
It's not even clear whether she hates this person now or still loves him.
She only knows that Ning Weimin is different from others, both of whom are men.
Even her husband Zhao Hanyu cannot compare to him.
What attracts her to Zhao Hanyu is that he can take her out of the country, satisfy her desires, and give her the future she wants.
Of course this man loves her very much, wholeheartedly and infatuatedly.
It's a pity that her feelings for Zhao Hanyu are much weaker.
It is not accurate to say that she loves Zhao Hanyu. The more important factor is that she has found a man she can rely on and trust.
Ning Weimin is different, Mi Xiaoran likes him from the bottom of his heart.
Mi Xiaoran could clearly feel that Ning Weimin was different from anyone else.
His every gesture, every word and every action, there are even many things about him that others do not possess.
It is this strangeness and freshness that makes Ning Weimin so eye-catching in the crowd, forming a unique charm that stands out from the crowd.
So much so that Mi Xiaoran was attracted to it unconsciously and could not extricate himself.
If we say that she was willing to marry Zhao Hanyu out of utilitarianism, it was also partly out of anger.
Then her feelings for Ning Weimin were completely opposite, so pure that even she was moved.
If Ning Weimin had been willing to accept her, she would not have wanted any extravagant wealth in life, she only wanted the content that she should have in life.
Then she would not even consider going abroad with Zhao Hanyu, but would focus on staying here to maintain her own romance and warmth.
She is a young woman after all, and she has young women’s dreams and requirements for romance.
But no matter what, it was precisely because Luohua was ruthless and because Ning Weimin cruelly broke her fantasy that she became more urgent to live a good life.
She secretly made up her mind to live out her own life and let Ning Weimin take a good look at it.
The only meaning left in her life is to prove that Ning Weimin was wrong to reject her.
Even if you don’t marry him, you can still live a life like a master.
Live better than him.
In Mi Xiaoran's eyes, if we don't talk about feelings, but only from the perspective of material and benefits, the value of Ning Weimin and Zhao Hanyu may have to be discussed.
If Zhao Hanyu is a big tree, then Ning Weimin is not as good as a blade of grass.
Because Zhao Hanyu himself is an American. Not only did he graduate from a prestigious university, his family also runs restaurants and laundries, and owns many industries.
Even in the United States, they are also the standard wealthy class.
Who is Ning Weimin!
A junior high school graduate just relies on his cleverness to flatter others and serve others, plus he has learned some foreign languages.
He is simply a modern version of a traitor and a bitch. In addition to fawning over foreigners, he also fawns over the children of cadres.
After working so hard to climb up, wouldn’t he end up joining a joint venture and becoming a bad manager?
When she left the capital, she did feel that Ning Weimin's monthly income in Pierre Cardin was scary enough, with a combined salary of two to three hundred US dollars.
Wearing company-issued suits worth thousands every day, five to six people go in and out of high-end foreign-related hotels, which is really eye-catching and enviable.
But now she doesn't see it that way. She has seen the world after going abroad, and then she knows that the income of the most ordinary white-collar worker in the United States is at least three or four times that of Ning Weimin.
Even if I take some time to take care of my children every day and do odd jobs, I still get a monthly salary of 200 US dollars.
And Pierre Cardin is not a really high-end brand.
It is just an ordinary brand that provides ready-made clothing to the public, taking the low-priced mass route.
If you want, Americans can buy one or two sets of Pierre Cardin every month, and the price is much cheaper than in China.
As for Zhao Hanyu’s monthly salary of more than two thousand US dollars, it can almost equal Ning Weimin’s income for more than half a year.
She still remembers the shady things Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui did at the Chongwenmen Hotel. They even lost their good jobs in order to make some shady extra money.
Of course now I look down on Ning Weimin from the bottom of my heart.
I have said it in my heart, it seems that no matter how much I play the role of a foreigner, it would be better to go abroad and become a foreigner myself.
So when she returned to the capital to visit relatives this time, Mi Xiaoran had a goal in mind - she wanted to see Ning Weimin and return to him in person the fifteen dollars he had originally assigned Zhang Shihui to give to her.
In addition to telling him openly that he doesn't need it, he should stop giving things away so secretly in the future, so as not to misunderstand his husband.
And she also wanted to tell him personally that if nothing unexpected happened, not only would she receive a bachelor's degree in business administration from Queens College of the City University of New York this year, but she would also soon become a mother.
Her children will be native-born Americans.
She even wanted to take the initiative to take a "friendly" interest in Ning Weimin's marriage and his career future.
You don’t need to ask her to know that even if a person with a junior high school degree joins a foreign company, he will definitely feel inferior and guilty after staying in an environment full of college students for a long time.
Otherwise, why would he try to please everyone he meets, even seducing the daughter of a cadre?
As for her, of course she had to teach him condescendingly. People cannot always rely solely on their cleverness. The most meaningful thing is to gain knowledge and broaden their horizons.
If he always sticks to a well-paid job and covets the comfortable life he is accustomed to, he will become a frog in the well sooner or later.
She would like to take a closer look at Ning Weimin's expression when he heard all this.
She was very curious about how Ning Weimin would react to these soul tortures from her, and how he would respond.
Will he be ashamed and embarrassed because he has not grown up over the years?
Or will you be caught off guard and in a panic?
However, even though this scene has been repeated countless times in Mi Xiaoran's imagination, every time it makes her full of interest and hearty pleasure.
But unfortunately, in reality, all this did not happen exactly as she expected.
What Mi Xiaoran never expected was that she and Zhao Hanyu could live more comfortably when they came back to visit relatives.
The kind-hearted Kang Shude actually asked Luo Guangliang to take over the house and lend it to her parents.
This old man actually still has a house in Dongcheng District, so he took Luo Guangliang and Ning Weimin there to celebrate the New Year.
So in fact, after she returned to the capital for several days, Mi Xiaoran had no chance to meet Ning Weimin.
Therefore, she would not be able to achieve her goal of feeling proud and having a good fight at Versailles to relieve the hatred in her heart.
On the contrary, Ning Weimin's name became a headache for her.
Although she hasn't seen him yet, she has always heard about Ning Weimin.
It has only been a few years since I came back, and it seems that the neighbors in No. 2 Courtyard of Shan'er Hutong have already regarded Ning Weimin as the most important person.
In such an important festival of the year, they actually chatted with each other, and the topic always turned to him.
Even her own parents and sister, like these neighbors, had to say Ning Weimin's name in a few sentences.
This naturally made Mi Xiaoran very upset. She was so annoyed that she couldn't even think about it.
But what stimulated Mi Xiaoran even more were the changes that Ning Weimin had made this year.
Although the neighbors did not know much about it in detail, the little information they learned from them was enough to make Mi Xiaoran feel incredible and unbelievable.
In Shan'er Hutong, the neighbors of the hospital benefited from the clothing scraps that Ning Weimin bought, and he also helped Luo Guangliang open a tricycle club in the Temple of Heaven Park.
In the street, in addition to developing financial resources for the street and upgrading the sewing club into a clothing factory, he also donated a toilet to the street.
Because of him, Aunt Bian became a decent person in the street. She was surrounded by self-employed people every day to please and compliment her...
Moreover, Ning Weimin also made a lot of achievements for Pierre Cardin Company.
He single-handedly founded the Tan Palace Restaurant, planned the Western Temple Fair in the Temple of Heaven and the Journey to the West exhibition, pioneered the first model competition in the country, and single-handedly promoted Qu Xiao to the championship of the competition.
He also invented the pull-out tie and the trolley suitcase, and then went abroad to open a restaurant in Tokyo, Japan...
In addition, he also drove an American Jeep and bought cultural relics from overseas for donation. The country has opened a charity reading club, and actually fell in love with the Japanese actress Keiko Matsumoto...
One after another, which one of these things sounds ordinary?
Is there anything that ordinary people can do?
Listen, listen, when you have gathered all this information together and learned enough.
Mi Xiaoran not only understood why the neighbors in the hospital admired Ning Weimin so much and cared about him so much.
She herself was so shocked that she lost her mind and became dizzy.
Even Zhao Hanyu became very interested in Ning Weimin because of what he heard, and kept asking about Ning Weimin's situation with the Mi family.
There is no doubt that no matter what, Mi Xiaoran would not have thought of it.
In just a few years, Ning Weimin has grown to such a powerful and dazzling level.
He is undoubtedly a celebrity in this city.
Because of his contributions to the city's media and cultural tourism, he has a huge say.
As long as he wants to, too many media reporters will want to interview him.
I'm afraid now he can be seen at any event or ceremony related to clothing.
He is also a key member of Pierre Cardon Company.
Even at such a young age, he was able to go to Japan alone with millions of dollars and dozens of people to open a restaurant.
You know how much autonomy Pierre Cardon gave him, and how much trust and respect the several restaurant investment units have in him.
In short, these things made Mi Xiaoran feel that Ning Weimin was both close and far away, which was very unreal.
Sometimes she even wondered if her ears were hearing wrong.
All of this was like a dream, making her feel inferior and depressed again.
On the surface, she was laughing after hearing this, but in fact, she wanted to shout, scream, and even cry.
After learning about these situations, she had insomnia and lay in bed for several nights.
For a while she thought of her life with Zhao Hanyu in the United States, and for a while she thought of Ning Weimin.
She couldn't help but compare her husband with Ning Weimin several times in her mind.
She didn't have much confidence at this time, and she seemed unsure whether Zhao Hanyu could surpass Ning Weimin in terms of career and income.
During those sleepless nights, Ning Weimin's image gradually became perfect and taller in Mi Xiaoran's heart.
It was so perfect that her teeth chattered, and so tall that it frightened her to the core.
She no longer has much confidence to remain arrogant in front of Ning Weimin.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, when Mi Xiaoran and Zhao Hanyu, as neighbors of No. 2 Courtyard, went to Tan Gong Restaurant with their parents and family to attend Ning Weimin’s banquet, that was when they experienced Ning Weimin’s Some skills.
They have never seen such a luxurious and gorgeous Chinese restaurant with rich cultural heritage.
So much so that Zhao Hanyu was so excited that he wanted to find a camera and take pictures of all the decorations in the restaurant so that he could take it back to the United States for reference to his family.
After tasting the food here, even Mi Xiaoran regained his love for his hometown and felt that only Chinese food can be called truly delicious.
In short, life seems to be a circle.
Mi Xiaoran suddenly discovered that she started from a starting point, walked around and returned to the original starting point.
Obviously she has sincerely pursued every step of her life, but now she is still empty-handed and has become a pitiful joke.
She was so deeply stimulated by the unacceptable fact that all the neighbors sat together. Everyone was obviously very happy, but she was the only one looking at the tableware in front of her in a melancholy manner.
Everyone thought she was feeling unwell or even sick, but her husband Zhao Hanyu was extremely anxious.
