After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 188: Useless Like Mud

The Jiang Family was peaceful, but the Yang Family was in chaos.

Yang Fen was getting married for the first time, and to avoid her feeling aggrieved, her fiancé’s family gave a generous betrothal gift.

In addition to cash, the "three rounds and a sound," they also bought a television.

This betrothal gift was truly respectable.

Now that the wedding’s off, the groom’s family had to take everything back.

The elders of the Yang Family were concerned about face, so they didn’t stop them and spoke kindly to them.

Even if the marriage didn’t work out, they shouldn’t become enemies in the future.

Hearing the commotion outside, Yang Fen was sobbing in her room, unable to catch her breath.

"Shen Qingqing is a jinx; ever since she returned to the compound, I’ve been unlucky!"

"She already went abroad, why did she come back?"

"Why didn’t she just die out there?"

She had already become a laughingstock in the compound, and now she’s been jilted; how can she face anyone again?

Li Hongyan looked at her with disdain.

For the first time, she felt her sister-in-law was hopeless.

"You’re almost thirty, and now you’ve been jilted. What will you do in the future?"

This was basically stabbing Yang Fen in the heart.

"Shen Qingqing isn’t married either!"

Li Hongyan: "She has people pursuing her; it’s different."

Jiang Zhixun is eagerly waiting so that as long as Shen Qingqing nods, he’ll marry her immediately.

Unlike her sister-in-law, who can’t even keep a widower.

Li Hongyan sighed.

She felt her sister-in-law’s life was doomed.

"Are you laughing at me?" Yang Fen glared at her angrily.

If she hadn’t listened to this person’s urging, she wouldn’t have ended up on a dead end.

Now that she’s older and has made so many mistakes, how can she ever get married?

Hatred flared in Yang Fen’s eyes.

As if she wanted to tear Li Hongyan apart.

"I hate you to death!"

Li Hongyan sighed, "I spent all this effort planning for you, and you still blame me for your failures?"

Yang Fen gritted her teeth, "It’s because of you that I ended up this way. You must give me an explanation, or... I’ll tell my brother to divorce you!"

Although Li Hongyan was quick with her tongue and had many ideas, she was also pretty.

This was why she could marry into the Yang Family.

She finally married into a good family, and now she’s being told to divorce? It’s like asking for her life!

Li Hongyan panicked, "You’re unhappy with your life, and now you want to make ours miserable too? Do you even have a conscience, Yang Fen?"

Yang Fen’s eyes turned cold, "It’s all your fault! If I’m not happy, you shouldn’t expect to be either!"

Li Hongyan initially planned to be lenient, but now she changed her mind.

"No wonder Jiang Zhixun doesn’t like you; you’re a terrible person, unable to tell good from bad!"

"Say that again!"

Yang Fen jumped up from the bed.

"Fine, I’ll say it again. You’re nothing compared to Shen Qingqing. If Jiang Zhixun hadn’t been divorced, do you think I’d have the confidence to push you to pursue him?"

Li Hongyan looked at her with contempt, "Even divorced men don’t want you, nor do widowers. Instead of blaming others, maybe you should reflect on yourself!"

Yang Fen’s anger surged.

"Argh!"

She screamed in frustration and reached out to yank Li Hongyan’s hair.

"It’s all because of you; you’re the jinx! You ruined me!"

Li Hongyan was feisty. If Yang Fen hadn’t made a move, she might have gone easy on her for the sake of the Yang Family.

But now with her hair being pulled, her reason left her.

Without thinking, she grabbed hold of Yang Fen’s hair.

Yang’s mother was outside pasting on a smile, but when she heard the commotion in her daughter’s room, she cursed silently.

In a hurry, she saw off the people collecting the betrothal gifts and rushed to her daughter’s room.

The two tangled together had their hair messed up, and their faces were scratched.

Yang’s mother almost fainted.

"Shameless creatures, stop it immediately!"

Educated people, yet they’re pulling hair and fighting; they might as well lose face!

With all her strength, she finally got them apart.

Yang Fen, while crying, spilled all the things Li Hongyan had urged her to do like spilling beans.

"I didn’t want to pursue Brother Zhixun; she kept talking about it every day, and that’s why I thought about it. It’s not that I don’t have self-respect; it’s because she brainwashed me every day, and I believed what she said!"

People’s hearts are naturally biased, and Yang’s mother sided with her own daughter.

She coldly questioned Li Hongyan, "What are you trying to do, tear this family apart?"

"Mom, I did it for the family’s sake!"

"Pushing Xiao Fen into a pit, this is your idea of good?"

Li Hongyan understood now, no matter what she said, her mother-in-law wouldn’t side with her.

She wiped her tears and ran out.

She wanted to go back to her parent’s house.

As for divorce, don’t even think about it!

The Yang Family’s affair made a great commotion, and even Father Jiang, who usually didn’t pay attention to neighborhood gossip, heard about it as soon as he got home after work.

Sitting at the dining table, eating delicious steamed buns, he asked about the Yang Family’s situation.

Madam Jiang said, "Let them make a fuss however they want; it has nothing to do with our family."

Father Jiang: "We can’t just ignore it. Keep an eye on it, and intervene if necessary. Don’t let the rumors spread and create a bad influence."

Madam Jiang snorted, "I might talk to someone else, but it’s Yang Fen, and if she clings to me afterward, what would I do?"

She turned to look at the person sitting next to her, "Right, Qingqing?"

Suddenly being addressed, Shen Qingqing hadn’t swallowed her bun yet.

Jiang Zhixun said, "She’s eating, don’t ask her questions now. What if she chokes?"

As he spoke, he ladled two scoops of rib soup into Shen Qingqing’s bowl.

"I made it; try it."

Shen Qingqing: "..."

If her memory served her correctly, she was the one who put the ribs in the pot.

He only sliced the carrots and sprinkled a bit of salt.

She shot him a meaningful look; this guy sure knew how to take credit!

Jiang Zhixun acted oblivious and even picked out two meaty ribs for Shen Qingqing.

Then he got himself a few pieces of carrot.

Eating this was good for the eyes; Qingqing bought them especially for him!

Madam Jiang watched them with a smile, forgetting what she wanted to say.

Compared to four years ago, Qingqing didn’t seem to dislike Zhixun as much.

As long as they could get along peacefully, she would surely see Zhixun’s advantages.

Madam Jiang thought she might be close to having grandchildren.

The thought of having grandchildren made Madam Jiang quickly push it out of her mind.

Back then, wanting Qingqing to have children too eagerly led to unpleasantness.

Some mistakes should never be repeated.

She said to Shen Qingqing, "Who knows when Zhixun can start going out by himself; it would be nice for him to join you at the dining hall and experience the youthful ambiance of the school. Maybe it would rub off on him and give him a bit of cultural flair."

Shen Qingqing didn’t say a word.

But Jiang Zhixun seemed intrigued.

Maybe they had been around each other too much lately, and Shen Qingqing could tell just by looking at his eyes what he wanted to do.

She said with a fake smile, "With age... you shouldn’t like getting into crowds."

Jiang Zhixun was half-dead with anger. freeweɓnovel~cѳm
