After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 110: What do you have to compare with her?
Chapter 110: Chapter 110: What do you have to compare with her?
Shen Qingqing wanted to be alone and insisted on not calling the Northwest. Madam Jiang was at a loss and could only return to the compound.
"Has Zhixun called back?"
The old man was reading the newspaper in the living room. "Not a darn call! That kid is becoming more and more outrageous. Qingqing is sick, and he doesn’t care, yet he dares to bring up remarriage. Such shamelessness!"
Madam Jiang instinctively spoke up for her son.
"He’s probably gone for closed training. Once he’s done, he’ll definitely call."
The mere mention of his unreliable grandson made the old man feel blocked in his heart.
"Did Qingqing remember Zhixun today?"
"No."
"Serves him right!"
When he hears this news, that boy will surely cry his heart out!
Madam Jiang hesitated for a moment, sat next to the phone, and dialed the number to the Northwest once again.
...
At the same time, Jiang Zhixun was attending Chen Shaojie and Shi Yu’s wedding.
They were making their vows in front of friends and family.
Jiang Zhixun was familiar with the vows. Even after three years, he could clearly recall them.
He silently recited them in his heart, as if he could see Shen Qingqing in a red dress on their wedding day.
That day, she looked at him with eyes full of sweetness and a sense of happiness from having her wish fulfilled.
Amidst the guests’ cheers, Jiang Zhixun snapped out of it.
Mechanically, he followed along clapping.
In the festive atmosphere, he longed for Shen Qingqing even more.
Over and over in his mind, he imagined what things would be like now if he hadn’t acted impulsively with Shen Qingqing.
Probably, the child would have been born by now.
Shen Qingqing is educated and has a good temper; she’d surely raise the child to be especially well-behaved.
Just like her.
Chen Shaojie spun Shi Yu around, perfectly captured by someone’s camera.
The cheers grew louder, and Jiang Zhixun, sitting in the middle of the crowd, felt like a piece of his heart was missing, regret intensifying.
Originally, he could have been just as happy.
Three years, over a thousand days and nights, completely wasted.
Remembering it now, Jiang Zhixun felt he deserved it.
He checked the time; it wasn’t even noon yet.
When the wedding ended, no matter how Shi Yu berated him, he would take Shi Yu to the communications office, making her call Shen Qingqing!
It didn’t matter if Shen Qingqing wouldn’t talk to him; hearing her voice alone would content him.
Otherwise, if this continued, he’d go mad!
Lin Fengmian seized the moment to sit by Jiang Zhixun, "Brother Jiang, how many days are you on leave this time? I want to go to the county tomorrow. Can you drive me?"
Jiang Zhixun pursed his cheek.
He didn’t bother making trouble for Lin Fengmian, partly out of respect for Lin Zhidong.
And he thought women were sensitive, not needing to fuss over every little thing with her.
Unexpectedly, Lin Fengmian was oblivious and began inching closer.
Jiang Zhixun’s gaze grew cold, "Why should I drive you? Who do you think you are to me?"
He had always been cold and unapproachable.
But now it was even more pronounced.
Lin Fengmian pinched her palm and smiled, "In my heart you’re like family, is it really such a bother to drive me to the county?"
She carefully glanced at Jiang Zhixun’s expression.
Was it a wrong impression? His gaze seemed even colder than before.
Lin Fengmian felt bitter inside, "When Shen Qingqing came to the Northwest, you managed to travel to the county twice in one day to find her..."
When people are speechless, they truly smile.
Jiang Zhixun sneered, "She’s my wife. Not just twice, even twenty times is right. What do you have to compare with her?"
"You two are already divorced!"
Lin Fengmian couldn’t hold back, her voice rising.
People around overheard, instinctively looking towards Jiang Zhixun, and then quickly averted their gaze.
But their ears were perked up, eager to hear more personal gossip.
Marriage is about partnering in life.
Shen Qingqing is so beautiful, yet Jiang Zhixun had the heart to divorce her.
Could it be... Shen Qingqing did something against Jiang Zhixun?
Jiang Zhixun gave them a casual once-over, his disgust for Lin Fengmian reaching peak levels.
"Even if we’re divorced, she’s still my wife. We will remarry. Who are you to question me and Qingqing? Do I need to tell everyone about your deeds so they can judge for Qingqing?"
"Lin Fengmian, pestering like this is truly disgraceful."
In front of so many people, being discredited made Lin Fengmian’s face burn with shame.
All the words bottled up inside her lost their opportunity to be spoken, she skipped the meal and ran off covering her face.
Lin Zhidong and Zhou Xiaomei were at another table with their child when they saw Lin Fengmian inching towards Jiang Zhixun, and they had a bad feeling.
But with so many eyes watching, there was nothing they could do.
They feared the situation would escalate, resulting in ridicule and spoiling Chen Shaojie’s wedding.
Unexpectedly, Lin Fengmian soon ran off crying.
Lin Zhidong felt a headache brewing, handing his son to his wife, "I’ll go check on her."
Zhou Xiaomei hummed, "Suit yourself."
This time when the sister-in-law visited the compound, she lacked her previous enthusiasm.
She no longer bothered considering Lin Fengmian’s feelings.
She patted her son’s head, signaling him to behave, and Lin Zhidong quickly walked out.
Once he left, someone approached Zhou Xiaomei, asking, "What’s Captain Jiang’s meaning behind those words?"
Bad matters shouldn’t be aired publicly, Zhou Xiaomei laughed casually, "I don’t know either."
As the dishes were served, the topic was brushed aside.
Jiang Zhixun had no appetite, his gaze fixated on Shi Yu, hoping they’d finish entertaining guests soon.
As the toasts reached Jiang Zhixun’s table, Chen Shaojie clicked his tongue.
In a voice only they could hear, he bitingly whispered, "Keep staring at my wife and people will start misunderstanding."
Jiang Zhixun remained expressionless, "My heart only has Shen Qingqing."
Chen Shaojie rolled his eyes.
"What’s the use in saying that? Restrain yourself, stop staring at my wife, or else I’ll make sure we settle this."
After speaking, he took Shi Yu to the next table.
Jiang Zhixun remained indifferent, his gaze still revolving around the couple.
Shi Yu felt like cursing, "What’s his problem?"
Chen Shaojie sighed, "Maybe he’s afraid we’ll run away?"
"Crazy!"
Chen Shaojie couldn’t agree more.
If he wasn’t crazy, would he have lost such a good Miss Shen?
"Ignore him."
Shi Yu snorted, "I don’t want to bother, but looking at him, today will definitely be troublesome."
Chen Shaojie’s head throbbed, "This guy really lacks integrity. If I didn’t know about his situation with Miss Shen, I’d suspect he has some notions about you, just doing it on purpose."
"Get lost!"
Shi Yu lowly cursed, elbowing Chen Shaojie’s gut firmly.
Facing the guests, she put on a smile once more.
A messenger came to the dining hall looking for Jiang Zhixun, saying there was a call for him from home, asking him to call back when he had a chance.
Jiang Zhixun nodded in agreement.
But he was pondering, first getting Shi Yu to contact Qingqing,
and after taking care of that, he’d return the call home.
