After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 213 Exposed

Shen Qingqing made a sketch of Jiang Zhixun.

The trees stood bare, and the man’s back blended in, showing only half of a cold and sharp profile.

Mysterious.

And unapproachable.

Jiang Zhixun felt he wasn’t that cold, but as long as it was painted by Shen Qingqing, he liked it.

He took it home like a treasure.

As soon as he entered the house, he went upstairs, wanting to store the painting properly right away.

Madam Jiang wondered, "What’s up with him?"

Shen Qingqing shook her head, "I don’t know."

No one could figure out Jiang Zhixun’s temper, so they let him be, and Madam Jiang invited Shen Qingqing to sit in the living room and drink sugar water.

"I promised to make steamed buns, I have all the fillings ready, I will go make them now and they will be ready soon."

Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun also brought back roast duck, so no other dishes were needed; they could have a good meal.

Shen Qingqing took off her scarf and placed it on the sofa, went to wash her hands, and started making buns with Madam Jiang.

Naturally, the topic of the wedding came up.

"Now things are getting better; brides are all wearing wedding dresses. You haven’t seen it, pink ones, very pretty!"

Madam Jiang described it vividly.

From the wedding dress to the hairstyle, she explained the bride’s hair style clearly.

Also, the dowry and bride price...

Finally, she sighed, "When you got married, the old master wasn’t well, and it wasn’t lively. If... if you and Zhixun could reconcile, we could have a grand wedding; you would look beautiful in that wedding dress."

Madam Jiang was testing Shen Qingqing’s intent.

She cast her sidelong glance towards her face, afraid to miss Shen Qingqing’s reaction.

Shen Qingqing expected this.

If the elders knew she and Jiang Zhixun were dating, they would surely joyfully prepare for a wedding.

She wanted to hide it from the elders, but she and Jiang Zhixun were already confirmed as a couple, outright denying it... would hurt.

Vaguely she said, "If I get to have a wedding day, I’d like to experience wearing a wedding dress."

Madam Jiang wanted to ask if she wanted to remarry, but she swallowed the words.

She had not outright refused, nor showed displeasure, which meant there was hope!

They couldn’t push too hard.

Otherwise, she’d be scared and would definitely refuse to remarry.

"What are you talking about?"

Jiang Zhixun undid his cufflinks, walking towards the kitchen, asking.

Madam Jiang: "Talking about how today’s bride wore a wedding dress, wondering if Qingqing should wear one too."

Jiang Zhixun turned his head to look at Shen Qingqing.

Even though he hadn’t seen her in a wedding dress, strangely, he could imagine it.

His heart started to race, filled with anticipation.

Maybe one day, he might really see Qingqing wear a wedding dress just for him.

"Wash your hands, then help out."

Shen Qingqing interrupted Jiang Zhixun’s thoughts.

The man agreed in a good-natured way, asking Shen Qingqing, "Do you like wedding dresses?"

Shen Qingqing’s heart was in her throat, how could he not restrain himself in front of the elders?

Isn’t he afraid others would notice something?

As expected, Madam Jiang’s gaze towards the two of them turned peculiar.

The intent to inquire was very obvious!

Shen Qingqing pretended to be calm, naturally answering Jiang Zhixun, "Who doesn’t like beautiful things?"

Jiang Zhixun nodded.

Just like how he liked Qingqing, partly because she was beautiful.

Qingqing liked him for the same reason.

"You don’t necessarily have to get married to wear one; if you like it, you can take some photos at a studio, and you could even buy the wedding dress."

After Jiang Zhixun spoke, he thought it was a good idea.

Bring the wedding dress home; Qingqing could wear it whenever she wanted.

How nice.

His eyes shifted slightly, and he had an idea in mind.

Not that he really wanted to get married, Shen Qingqing was not very enthusiastic, and she just brushed off the topic after a few words.

Only Jiang Zhixun kept it in his heart.

They didn’t find out any news, but it seemed the relationship between Qingqing and Zhixun had made significant progress.

They could chat in a back-and-forth way.

Madam Jiang was very pleased.

She silently reminded herself, no matter who wanted to introduce someone to Zhixun, she wouldn’t be swayed again.

If she accidentally messed things up, Zhixun would probably blame her.

The family elders all went to a banquet, so only Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun had dinner together.

The man had a large appetite, so many steamed xiaolongbao were made.

After all, the weather was cold, and any leftovers could be frozen and eaten later.

Therefore, Madam Jiang prepared a generous amount.

Shen Qingqing’s appetite was moderate, but she had snacked on the way back, so she wasn’t very hungry.

After eating a few xiaolongbao and a roast duck leg, she wasn’t interested in eating more.

To accompany Jiang Zhixun, she picked a duck neck to nibble at.

There were just the two of them at the table, and no one in the living room, Jiang Zhixun wanted her to eat more, "It’s still early, what will you do if you get hungry later?"

"I’ll just snack if I’m hungry."

The dorms didn’t allow cooking, which was sometimes inconvenient.

But housing was important, and it wouldn’t be allocated to her anytime soon.

Jiang Zhixun said, "After a midnight snack, I’ll take you back to school."

Shen Qingqing said with a half-smile, "Why don’t you say you’ll take me back tomorrow morning?"

Jiang Zhixun was honest, "That’s actually what I planned, have dinner then head out for a date, but I didn’t buy ’that’.

He changed the topic, "Even without it, it doesn’t affect the date; it’s a bit inconvenient for me to stay in your dorm, how about going to a hotel tonight?"

Shen Qingqing’s face was warm, she kicked his toe under the table, "Mind your words."

Jiang Zhixun’s expression was calm, "We’ve already been at that point, why keep things hidden?"

Shen Qingqing ignored him.

She lowered her head, slowly nibbling on the duck neck.

There wasn’t much meat on it, Jiang Zhixun picked out the part suitable for her to satisfy her craving.

Shen Qingqing raised her hand to block, "Really can’t eat anymore."

Jiang Zhixun didn’t force it and started talking about his work arrangements.

"I’m returning to the team tomorrow, will visit you during my vacation."

Shen Qingqing nodded, couldn’t help but nag, "Be mindful of your capabilities during training, pay attention to your health."

Being cared for by her, Jiang Zhixun was in high spirits.

If he had a tail, it would certainly be wagging.

"Don’t worry about me, you focus on your work, eat well and rest."

As it was nearing the end of the semester, Shen Qingqing was quite busy with work.

When the winter break arrives, who knows if there will be other arrangements at the school.

"If there are no arrangements, I will go to the Northwest to find Shi Yu."

Jiang Zhixun sighed, "Then I’m left behind again?"

He had already taken a long vacation, and when Qingqing had her winter break, he didn’t have a long leave, couldn’t accompany her to the Northwest.

Shen Qingqing glanced around, Madam Jiang was talking to the neighbor at the courtyard gate.

Taking advantage of no one paying attention, she reached out to touch Jiang Zhixun’s head, "Be good, if I really go to the Northwest, I’ll bring you back some special products."

Jiang Zhixun, who was in his thirties, found it odd to have his head patted and to be told to be good. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Strangely, he found it enjoyable.

"Touch it again."

Shen Qingqing couldn’t help but smile, fulfilling his request.

Jiang Zhixun had a buzz cut, with stiff hair, a bit satisfying to touch.

So, Shen Qingqing patted it a few more times.

At the courtyard gate, Madam Jiang was so surprised that her jaw nearly dropped, afraid of being seen by them, she also hid her body in the blind spot of their sight.

The young couple, they’re reconciled!
