Helan Xue no longer went to work at the company. Instead, she went with the old man to the villa on the mountain.

It was a villa on the mountain. The scenery was beautiful and the air was fresh.

She had been here for five days. Every day, the sun would rise and set. Although it was boring, it was also very comfortable. There weren't any cold gazes from those people.

"Grandpa, dinner is ready. Come and eat."

Helan Xue called out softly as she stood in the garden doorway, looking at the old man pruning the branches of the evergreen tree.

"Alright, I'll come right away. What did the girl cook for grandpa again?"

She was a kitchen idiot who didn't know how to do anything. This little girl was actually a kitchen expert, she would cook some food for him every day, which was nutritious and delicious. He had eaten until his appetite had recently increased, so he could eat two bowls of rice.

Looking at the two big bowls of instant noodles on the table, the old man's eyes lit up, "Little girl, you can make instant noodles too?"

"It's my first time making it. I don't know if it's good or not, so grandpa, come and try it." Helan Xue helped the old man to a seat.

"Just looking at it is delicious. You don't even know that grandpa loves to eat instant noodles. Do you know why that is so?" There was a sense of disappointment in the old man's words.

"Why?" Helan Xue followed his words and asked.

"Because of the taste of my hometown, I'm a true northeastern man. I haven't been back since I started serving as a soldier since I was 19. I haven't been back for dozens of years." A tinge of worry flashed across the old man's eyes.

"Why hasn't Grandpa gone back yet?"

The old tutor smiled wryly, "I'm too ashamed to go back."

"…" He had already become a general, how could he still have no face? Going back would be considered a glorious return, could it be that his grandfather had something to hide?

Helan Xue changed the topic, "Grandpa, can I accompany you for a walk up the mountain after we have dinner?"

The old man smiled knowingly at Helan Xue. "Alright."

After lunch, Helan Xue and the old man went for a walk on the mountain.

The mountain was filled with fresh flowers. As the wind blew, the fragrance wafted in the air, refreshing the heart and soul.

"Grandfather, are you tired?"

Every time they walked a certain distance, Helan Xue would always ask the old man this question, causing the old man to be at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "Girl, before grandpa gets to the point where he can even breathe after taking two steps. Don't you forget, grandpa used to be the champion in the army!"

"Grandpa is the best in the world. Grandpa is the best." Helan Xue's mischievous smile echoed in the mountains, to the point where the old man was confused. He had known her for more than two years, but he had never seen her smile so happily before. It seemed like he had made the right decision; her happiness was more important than anything else.

"Girl, there's something grandpa wants to ask you. You can't hide it from grandpa."

"What does grandpa want to ask?" If he guessed correctly, it should be the child's fault.

"Is this child a noble?" Old Man Helian asked out the most obvious questions that he had already guessed in his heart.

Indeed! Helan Xue nodded slightly. "Yes."

"Grandpa understands. Don't worry, grandpa won't let you and your child suffer grievances." Does this brat know what he has done?

Helan Xue thought he was going to do something, so she quickly shook her head. "Grandfather, don't think too much, I don't feel wronged, and he doesn't know that this child is his, he also doesn't know that I had a relationship with him. There's no reason to blame him for that, and I've never complained to him. It's good to be with him like this."

Silly girl, how can you have such a foolish child like you? Even if you aren't thinking for yourself, you still have to think for your child, it's very hard for you to take care of your child by yourself. Grandfather is old, and I can't accompany you for long. Actually, he said that on purpose. He wanted to test if Helan Xue and her grandson had a chance to turn back.

"No, I did not hold him responsible. It was an accident that night, and I would raise the child as best I could. Grandfather, don't think about it anymore.

So what if he knew? Since he hated him so much, his children would definitely not like him either. Since that was the case, he might as well just become a stranger from now on.

Two days later, in the afternoon, Helian Jue ordered someone to bring the signed divorce agreement.

Another day later, Helan Xue and Helian Jue went to the Civil Affairs Bureau together to apply for a divorce certificate. From then on, the two of them no longer had anything to do with each other.

Helan Xue did not have the time to be sad or sad. Even though she was divorced, she still had to live her life. She had to raise a child in the future, and right now, what she lacked the most was money.

Child, she had to rely on her own ability to raise.

After all, the old man had agreed to let her go to work. The final compromise was to rent her a house in the city center and hire a babysitter. If she couldn't agree, then she couldn't go to work.

She had no choice but to agree since the old tutor wasn't the usual stubborn one.

After settling down, Helan Xue began to look for a job. She didn't have a diploma or any experience, so it was really hard to find a job.

As she passed by a shopping mall, Helan Xue's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw the signboard at the entrance that said: "Recruit for sale on the sixth floor." She was the best at selling.

In the past two days, she had gone to inquire about the recruitment information, but the result was … Hopefully, there will be a different outcome this time.

Taking the elevator, Helan Xue went straight up to the sixth floor. When she arrived, she found out that she was selling women's clothing.

Helan Xue suddenly lost her confidence in selling women's clothing. If she was like this, would they hire her?

One had to have a temperament and no temperament, but one had to have an appearance and no looks.

Forget it, let's just try it out first. The time limit given by her grandfather was almost up. Otherwise, she would have to accept her grandfather's arrangement for him to find a job for her.

The old man had made an agreement with her beforehand. If she still wasn't able to find a job within three days, she would have to accept his arrangements.

Helan Xue braced herself and went to the HR Manager's office. Twenty minutes later, she came out with a look of disbelief on her face. She had been recruited?

It was a simple job to sell clothes. He only needed to work half a shift a day. Saturday was the entire day, and he had to earn a thousand and eight hundred yuan.

"Hello, Miss. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Give me that lavender dress for a try." A fat woman pointed to a very thin purple dress.

"Miss, that set of clothes does not suit you. This set of yellow clothes is very suitable for your skin color. Please try it." Helan Xue suggested in a friendly manner.

"What do you mean?" Are you laughing at how fat I am? " The woman got angry when she heard that.

"No, that's not what I meant …"

"Shut up, you actually dare to talk back. Go and call your manager over, I want to file a complaint against you. Do you know that the customer is your God? How dare you disobey God? You really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. "

"Miss, I really didn't mean it that way. I'll bring it to you right away." If only he had known earlier, he wouldn't have said that. It didn't matter whether she was suitable for it or not. He was fine now, he had gotten himself into a lot of trouble.

"What kind of attitude is that?" "A small salesperson, do you know whether it's suitable for you or not? Are you wearing such expensive clothes? Let me tell you, even if I bought the entire mall, I would still be able to afford it."

This rich and imposing woman was a typical example. Helan Xue passed the purple dress to her, but she threw it back into her arms, "It's not suitable for me, it's pretty suitable for you. This dress is my gift to you. Wear it on me, let me have a look."
