Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 503 Revealed

Qian Jun sighed, "I still won’t go. This back and forth is really a hassle."

"It’s fine. You should get out and take a breather." Yao Shimin truly felt sorry for Qian Jun. He finally got married, and yet, who would have thought something like this would happen?

"What’s the point of relaxing? Things are the way they are, and I can’t let this knock me down." Qian Jun gave a bitter smile.

"Go out and have some fun. I’ll take care of things at home."

"I’m not going. Let’s leave it at that."

"For a while, you’ll be the focus of many people’s gossip. Everyone will have something to say, and going out might save you from hearing hurtful things."

Qian Jun sighed, "Avoidance won’t solve the problem. How long can I stay outside? Eventually, I have to come back.

Shimin, what kind of fate is this?"

"What does this have to do with you? You didn’t want this to happen."

Qian Jun shook his head, "Actually, I should have been with her. I just couldn’t stand her being so narrow-minded.

But I never expected this to happen. It’ll be a lifelong wound in my heart."

Yao Shimin didn’t know how to comfort him, watching Qian Jun light one cigarette after another.

"It’s already happened. It’s too late to say anything. Try to stay calm and find someone else in the future."

"Find someone else?"

"Yes, you’ve been living too hard. Even if you take your work seriously, you still need to consider your personal life."

Qian Jun laughed at himself, "I don’t have any such thoughts right now."

"That’s not good. You still have a long time ahead of you. Though this situation has hurt you, you have to let it slowly pass.

Honestly, how am I any better than you? My girlfriend cheated on me, which was quite painful too, but now I have Jingyi, and I feel my life is happy and fulfilling."

Qian Jun smiled, "Your wife is indeed good. You’ve come through the hardships. According to others, we’re successful, but only we know the truth."

"Qian Jun, stop overthinking. Once this tough period passes, find someone else, so you won’t end up lonely in the future." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Shimin, I like Jiang Xinyu. But she has two children and no feelings for me, so I settled for someone young and beautiful."

"I could tell. Xinyu really just sees you as a colleague, a friend.

It’s pointless to compare other women to her. How many could measure up to her?"

Qian Jun nodded, "Yeah, how many could measure up to her? Isn’t Gao Ruyun’s behavior normal?"

Yao Shimin didn’t stop Qian Jun. Maybe talking it out would help?

"Shimin, do you think if I confessed to Jiang Xinyu when we first met, would the ending be different? Would I also have a happy family with kids by now?" Yao Shimin watched as Qian Jun fell into confusion.

"Qian Jun, you should realize that with Jiang Xinyu’s personality, even if she knew your feelings early on, nothing would change. We all know the kind of person she is. If she liked you, whether or not you confessed wouldn’t matter." Although these words were hurtful, Yao Shimin really didn’t want to see Qian Jun consumed by it.

Qian Jun paused, "Yeah, Jiang Xinyu’s personality is like that. If she doesn’t like someone, she simply doesn’t. Who is that lucky man, anyway? How come he doesn’t cherish her properly?"

Both fell into silence. Jiang Xinyu is a person who deeply values her privacy, and perhaps no one around her knows her situation?

Pan Xiulan arrived, "Vice Factory Director Yao, there’s an issue at the workshop that requires your attention."

Qian Jun stood up, "Let’s go, I’ll go with you to check it out."

Kong Demin was in a terrible mood, and so he returned to Meng Xiu Fen’s house that night.

Yu Jing tugged at his hand, "Dad, do you not want me anymore?"

"Of course not. You’re my daughter. How could I not want you? Why would you think that?"

"It’s just that we hardly see you, and Sister Xiao Xiang keeps crying."

"No, I won’t abandon you. In the future, I’ll come back often to see you."

After comforting his daughter and looking at the two women seated in the room, he felt deeply pained. Why wasn’t he good enough?

That night, lying beside Meng Xiu Fen, they quietly talked, "Deming, should you go to the Capital?"

"Are you looking down on me?"

"How could that be? How could you think that way? Don’t you know how I feel about you? It’s just that seeing you unhappy makes me hope you’ll feel better."

Kong Demin remained silent, knowing Meng Xiu Fen’s concern for him.

"Alright, I’m just in a bad mood. I wronged you.

But right now, I can’t move. We’ll go to the Capital at the end of the year, okay?"

"I hope you can be happy."

"I understand. Don’t worry."

As for Sun Hongxia, when she returned home, she was alone and furious. Her husband never seemed to come home at night. Her marriage really wasn’t a happy one.

Yet, she didn’t dare confront Kong Demin because deep down, she was afraid of him.

Lying alone in bed, she thought about what happened after she got with Kong Demin, feeling pitiful, but couldn’t tell anyone. Even if she did, her dad would likely just tell her to stay put.

Oh, what kind of fate is this? And this is still her honeymoon period? But the man isn’t by her side. Could it really be like how Kong Menglin said, that Kong Demin doesn’t care for her at all?

Feeling even more wronged inside, you don’t care for me, so why did you want me? It’s ruining me.

Tossing and turning alone, unable to sleep, she suddenly recalled what happened, becoming even more terrified. No, no matter how scared she was of Kong Demin, she had to talk to him tomorrow. She couldn’t stay home alone; it was too frightening.

Sun Hongxia barely slept that night. Early the next morning, she went to the office and waited for Kong Demin.

When Kong Demin saw Sun Hongxia, "Why are you here?"

"Demin, can you stay home at night and keep me company? I’m scared. I’m too afraid to be home alone."

"Scared of what?"

"The incidents with the hooligans outside. I didn’t sleep a wink last night; I was terrified."

Kong Demin frowned, "There aren’t that many bad people. Don’t worry."

"I don’t believe it. I’m really scared. If you absolutely can’t stay with me, I’ll sleep at my mom’s house. I don’t dare to stay home alone."

Kong Demin looked at the dispirited Sun Hongxia, sneering internally, "Isn’t it inappropriate for you to go home? You’ve already married."

"But you’re not home. I’m going back today." Sun Hongxia was now completely disjointed.
