After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1080 - 571: Between a Wolf and a Tiger

Yu Xiaohui's words made Lou Xiaojiao blush, but she still defended herself: "You know, my marriage with that deadbeat was nominally over. Besides, it was Zhang Ming who seduced me first, for my money. I not only paid off more than two million of his debts, but I also gave him tens of thousands later on. In the end, none of them were good people, and I didn't wrong them."

Lou Xiaojiao spoke confidently, and Yu Xiaohui did not refute her.

The facts were indeed like this. At that time, Lou Xiaojiao's husband was not only a freeloading man who lived off her but also a gambler who lost at least half of her fortune over the years. Furthermore, he was lazy and idle, if he won some money, he would go find prostitutes, indulging in every vice. If not for worrying about the two kids at home and the fact that this freeloading man refused to agree to a divorce, they would've separated long ago.

And Zhang Ming purely coveted Lou Xiaojiao's money. After his business failed and he fell into debt, he deliberately seduced Lou Xiaojiao because they had a relationship back in middle school, so they had some emotional foundation. Plus, Lou Xiaojiao was unhappy in her marriage, so they naturally got involved together.

This really couldn't be blamed on Lou Xiaojiao. If there was any fault, it lay with her mooching husband and Zhang Ming.

As for later, when her mooching husband killed Zhang Ming and was sentenced to death himself, it counted as mutual destruction, and this obviously couldn't be blamed on Lou Xiaojiao.

But the world is like this, many things are clearly the fault of men, yet they still blame it on women.

In ancient times, there were sayings like "a beautiful woman is a calamity" and "to topple a crown in rage for a beauty," putting men's mistakes on women.

Lou Xiaojiao was no different. Her lover was killed by her husband, and then her husband was sentenced to death.

In their hometown, it's inevitable she'd be talked about, people saying she has a husband-killing fate, that her lover and husband were both killed by her curse.

Even when she moved from the city to Lin Nan, these malicious rumors followed her like shadows.

Although Yu Xiaohui's situation is slightly better, her husband also died unnaturally, falling to his death while having an affair with a married woman, which was very dramatic, reported heavily online for a while.

In Lu City, it spread even more, especially since her husband was a well-known figure locally, a billionaire, increasing the news' circulation and interest. For a while, the gossip was rampant in Lu City, everyone chats and laughs about this news at mealtimes.

Yu Xiaohui was naturally brought up by those idle people, many thinking she couldn't control her husband or satisfy him, and other cruel words. Some even say she has a curse on her husband, but not as much as Lou Xiaojiao.

Moreover, many nurture filthy thoughts about her, wanting both her money and her due to inheriting tens of billions from her deceased husband, trying to approach and seduce her from different angles.

Even more people use various connections to come and propose to her, making it impossible for her to have peace at her hometown in Lin Nan, frequently harassed.

It's precisely because of their similar unlucky fates and years of friendship before, that they have become so extraordinarily close now, even willing to share their man.

Of course, the reason Yu Xiaohui is so generous mainly is because she adjusted her mindset. Just like she said before, Chen Feng is neither her husband nor even her boyfriend, and besides herself, Chen Feng has several other women. Instead of letting other women have Chen Feng's favor, shouldn't her good friend benefit?

That's the logic.

Chen Feng had no idea Xiaohui would be so generous. He was quite exhausted physically yesterday, so today he definitely needed to replenish.

There was some antler left at home, Sister Xue could stew it well, but it would be noon by then. Earlier he said to Yu Xiaohui that he'd be heading out soon, and wouldn't be home for lunch.

After thinking about it, he sent Liu Ying a message asking if she still had any sea cucumbers there. After receiving a positive reply, he said he'd head over there and have lunch.

Liu Ying was naturally pleased that Chen Feng would come over, and immediately informed her mother, instructing her to stew the sea cucumbers.

Then, on a whim, she sent a message to Hong Xiaodan.

[Chen Feng is coming over for lunch, want to join us?]

Ever since their chance meeting on a walk, Liu Ying and Hong Xiaodan had gotten along quite well, even visiting each other's homes. Both being pregnant women, they had plenty to talk about.

Liu Ying, unaware that the one responsible for Hong Xiaodan's pregnancy was the same as hers, and knowing Hong Xiaodan's status as a rich second generation, intentionally tried to befriend her.

Hong Xiaodan was well aware that it was Chen Feng who got Liu Ying pregnant, but Liu Ying didn't know the secret of her pregnancy. So she didn't mind Liu Ying's friendly gestures.

However, she didn't expect Liu Ying to invite her to eat with Chen Feng now.

This made her pause without responding for a while.

She did want to go, but could foresee that Chen Feng would be unhappy seeing her.

Therefore, after much hesitation, she chose to decline, saying she wouldn't be their third wheel. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Liu Ying was also following a sudden thought, considering Chen Feng and Hong Xiaodan had known each other before, and Hong Xiaodan once even chased Chen Feng. Now, if Chen Feng found out Hong Xiaodan was pregnant, it would definitely be interesting.
