Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 - 16: Improper

Wang Dan was quite happy to see Sun Chan, and on the way back she told Sun Chan, "I'm getting married on National Day."

Sun Chan exclaimed in delight, "Really? Congratulations!"

"Yeah, his parents were stubbornly refusing to agree to buy an apartment. Even though they have money, they won't spend it and even said that I'm marrying up by moving from the village to the city, and wanting too much would just make people laugh. I wasn't worried; if they didn't agree, the engagement would be off. In the end, they still had to listen to me. Their son likes me; if they want to scheme, they have to see if they have the capability." Wang Dan said proudly.

Sun Chan smiled and said, "With your personality, you surely won't be a pushover once you're married."

She also talked about her job as a caregiver at the hospital.

Wang Dan laughed and said, "Not bad! But this job relies on luck, and you're young, most people wouldn't really dare to hire you. You'll have to endure for a while."

Sun Chan nodded; what she said made sense. She also had no education. In her previous life, when the caregiver industry developed, it required qualifications. She was just a primary school graduate, so it seemed it wouldn't be easy to do this kind of work. Moreover, now that the child was discharged from the hospital, she was out of a job again, with no choice but to wait for opportunities.

Such insecure work, combined with Bai Fanglan's meddling, was really a bit troubling.

Anyway, she still earned money, and it felt really good. Adding it to what she took from Sun Lijuan, it was more than thirty cents in total. To pay back the money owed to Gu Lianzhang, she'd have to keep working hard.

Wang Dan's little house where she lives with her colleague was quite tidy. Although it wasn't big, the yard and the main gate were done nicely.

At that moment, Wang Dan was holding the key ready to open the door, only to find the main gate was unlocked. She froze and puzzledly said, "At this time, everyone should be out at work, what's going on?"

Sun Chan pulled Wang Dan back: "We'd better not forcefully go in; if we run into troublemakers, it wouldn't be good."

Wang Dan quickly hid behind Sun Chan upon hearing that, "What should we do?"

Sun Chan took a few steps closer, held her breath, and listened carefully for a while, then turned back and said, "It seems like there's laughter."

"Huh?" Wang Dan listened closely; indeed, a thief wouldn't be so brazen.

Sun Chan moved even closer to the door and heard a flirtatious conversation between a man and a woman.

"Stop it! What if someone sees us?"

"Who would come at this time? Aren't they all at work?"

The girl said, "Still, we shouldn't. Let's go back. I told the leader I was going to deliver something; it wouldn't be good if I'm late. Ah ah!"

Wang Dan suddenly cursed angrily and directly opened the door, just in time to see a man and woman playfully pulling at each other.

The girl was only about eighteen or nineteen, average-looking but quite stylish, with permed hair, her clothes a bit untidy, a blush on her cheeks. The man beside her was good-looking, dressed well, but his eyes were shifty, clearly not trustworthy. His hand was around her slender waist, and his belt wasn't even done up properly.

Wang Dan's eyes burned with anger as she heard her words: "You call me petty? Do you want me to tell the Director about this and see what he'll say? Then you won't even be able to keep your job. I'm giving you some face, so don't push your luck!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Sun Chan tugged at her arm, trying to stop her.

Coldly, Wang Dan said, "I'll give you an hour. If it's not washed clean, I'll go straight to the Director!" After saying that, she turned and slammed the door shut as she left.

On the way, Wang Dan was still furious. Sun Chan said, "After all, she's your colleague. It's not good to make things too tense."

Wang Dan snorted, "Lin Hongmei sells men's clothing. It's been heard that a wealthy man has been pursuing her for a while. It's probably this Han Dong. His family is quite wealthy, both parents are in business. But I think he's not a decent guy."

Sun Chan nodded. Now, although doing business can earn more money, people generally feel that having a formal job looks more respectable. Given their age and still out hustling, it shows they're quite farsighted.

Wang Dan angrily slapped a telephone pole, "I'm so mad! It's disgusting!"

Sun Chan counseled, "You're getting married soon. Just hold on a little longer, and you'll move out soon. Why get yourself worked up?"

Wang Dan worriedly said, "Once I leave, you won't have a place to stay either. Renting on your own is too expensive."

Sun Chan smiled, "We'll take it one step at a time. I can't always bother you. Besides, if Sun Lijuan shows up, they'll assume you took me in. And as you've seen, with people like that around, it's inconvenient for me to stay here." Sun Chan thought it would be best to quickly find a full-time caregiver job, allowing her to stay in the hospital.
