After becoming rich overnight, I handed over the system.

Chapter 273 Another Chance

When Lin Liuyi arrived, Zhou Qiao had just put her daughter to sleep.

After listening to Lin Liuyi's explanation, Zhou Qiao realized what she had missed back then.

Can she blame Lin Liuyi? No, because she herself rejected this opportunity.

She turned down opportunities to change her life because of her unrealistic obsession with domineering CEOs, and ended up choosing a mediocre man, which is why she's in this situation now—she deserves it.

Seeing that the other party was not happy but rather somewhat disappointed after hearing this, Lin Liu's courage was roused again.

Could this reader also be contemplating suicide?

"Sister, are you alright?" she asked softly.

Zhou Qiao shook her head with a wry smile, her eyes full of self-mockery.

"It's nothing, I just feel so stupid for turning away the opportunity that I finally got, and now I'm living like this."

Lin Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know what was wrong with the reader, but she still comforted her.

"Who says that only a life full of ups and downs is life? Most of us live ordinary, uneventful lives, don't we? Maybe they are a bit ordinary, but that's life too!"

Zhou Qiao suddenly understood after hearing what the other person said.

Yes, even if she hadn't rejected Lin Liuyi back then, she might not necessarily be living a better life now.

Perhaps if she had known Lin Liuyi's abilities back then, she would have become even more obsessed with the domineering CEO mentality, and perhaps she would have overestimated her abilities and done more foolish things, after all, she had already done several foolish things before.

Although the path she chose may not have been the right one, she has no regrets now that she has a daughter.

Seeing that the other person's complexion had returned to normal, Lin Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were alright, that was enough. She didn't have high expectations for her readers!

Zhou Qiao came to her senses and explained her situation, also explaining why she had given a frying pan as a reward.

"I was angry at the time and impulsively tipped you with a frying pan. Wait until I tidy up the house and look for something special before I tip you again."

Now that Zhou Qiao has calmed down, she feels a little embarrassed that she gave the other person a used frying pan as a tip.

Seeing this, Lin Liuyi quickly shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay, this pot is fine, it's just that there's only half left, so I can't return it to you. How about I give you a new one?"

When Lin Liuyi said that, Zhou Qiao felt even more embarrassed: "No, no, I'll just buy another one."

How could she possibly ask Lin Liuyi to give her a new one? It was originally a reward she had given herself.

Zhou Qiao thought about how if she bought a new pot, she would have to ask her husband for money again, and he would definitely scold her then, so her expression turned a little sour.

Seeing this, Lin Liuyi wondered if she should just give Zhou Qiao a new one.

"It's not about the pot. The main problem is that ever since I got married, I've been staying at home, and I have to ask my husband for money to buy anything," Zhou Qiao said dejectedly.

Now it was Lin Liuyi's turn to be puzzled. Could Zhou Qiao's family background support her being a housewife?

Zhou Qiao seemed to have noticed Lin Liuyi's question as well, and she explained, "When we first got married, my husband told me to be a housewife at home. At the time, I naively thought he was a domineering CEO, since domineering CEOs' wives don't have to work." Zhou Qiao blushed a little as she said this.

Then she said seriously, "But as you can see, this house is only so big. After I lost my job, I became a housewife. With one less person earning money, all expenses were reduced. After having children, we became even more strapped for cash. I've mentioned going back to work, but my husband just won't let me. That's not all; he also often brings his colleagues over for dinner. His colleagues always come empty-handed, and I have to buy groceries to entertain them. My husband is too proud to accept anything less than good food, and it always leaves me exhausted. Today, I finally snapped."

What really bothered Zhou Qiao wasn't being a housewife, but rather having to ask her husband for money.

Every time she asks for money, her husband always grumbles that she spends too much.

God knows, she definitely didn't!

After getting married, she hardly bought any cosmetics, let alone new clothes.

Every time Zhou Qiao asked for money, it hurt her self-esteem, and she wanted to go out and work.

But as soon as she has this thought, her husband will admit his mistake and coax her. In addition, she herself feels that she has not worked for so long and is afraid that she will not do well. Over time, this is how it is.

Zhou Qiao touched her face; she had indeed become a haggard old woman.

Sigh, so many housewives are like this, because they have no source of income and can only endure everything.

However, Lin Liuyi wanted to help her, since she was, after all, his reader.

"I can help you, but you need to think about what you can do first!"

When Zhou Qiao heard Lin Liuyi say that he could help her, her eyes lit up immediately. But then she asked herself what she could do. What could she do?

Zhou Qiao wanted to back away again; she was a little scared.

But looking at her daughter's sleeping face, she wanted to give it a try.

But what exactly can she do?

Should she do housework? She felt she definitely couldn't compete with the cleaning ladies.

Did she study her major in college? She's basically forgotten everything.

She was discouraged; she didn't even know what she could do.

"Don't you have anyone you particularly like?" Lin Liuyi was also racking her brains to help her think of someone.

"Does 'I especially like it' mean if I like pretty things?" Zhou Qiao mustered her courage and asked.

Lin Liuyi looked at Zhou Qiao carefully and felt that something was amiss.

Although Zhou Qiao's clothes didn't look very high quality, her outfit was well-coordinated.

Although her hair didn't look very shiny, it was neatly combed and even braided into a fishtail braid.

And Zhou Qiao's face, she may not have much time to take care of it, but her face is still clean, although there are wrinkles, which is unavoidable.

Do you like getting beauty treatments?

Zhou Qiao nodded frantically. You see, when she was in school, she liked to share beauty tips with her friends and would even braid their hair, so she was very popular.

Seeing this, Lin Liuyi thought he could give her the "Peach Blossom Manual," which contained many beauty recipes.

If Zhou Qiao could replicate some of these in her world, it would definitely be enough to support her and her daughter.

Zhou Qiao was somewhat tempted. She thought about how she had been trapped in her family for so many years and had never dared to take a new step.

I rejected it once before, but maybe this really is a chance to start over.

She gritted her teeth and said, "June 1st, I'm willing. Then tell me in detail."

Lin Liuyi smiled and nodded, then began to explain in detail.
