Chapter 229

~4 min read 748 words

"She said her cousin-in-law hasn't touched her in a long time. Ever since she gave birth, he's despised her for her figure losing its shape, and he even said she looked ugly when she was giving birth—he can't forget it."

She feels so scared now, and suddenly doesn't want to have children.

She is afraid that Huo Jingyan will despise her.

She is also afraid of losing herself.

She wants to work; she just graduated from university, so why should she be in such a rush to have children?

"What has your cousin decided to do now?" Shu Xia asked.

"She has already told her family, and is preparing to divorce her cousin-in-law. She is currently collecting evidence of her cousin-in-law's infidelity, and then she plans to open a children's dance training institution. She said she doesn't want to lose herself anymore. Hearing about her experience, it's just too painful. Shu Xia, is there really no such thing as a good man in this world? I'm not even that confident about Huo Jingyan anymore," Jiang Nannan said, looking somewhat dejected.

Shu Xia softly comforted her, "Your cousin is very strong. Since the matter has already happened, the fact that she can arrange a way out and a future for herself as quickly as possible is already the best outcome."

"That's true, my cousin is really strong. If it were me facing this situation, I'm afraid I would be so devastated that I wouldn't be able to recover. I really can't imagine what I would do if Huo Jingyan betrayed me. I'm the type of person who is strong on the outside but weak on the inside; I look like I don't care about anything, but actually, I'm truly afraid in my heart," Jiang Nannan sighed.

Through her cousin's affair, she performed the deepest analysis of herself.

Shu Xia's eyes flickered.

She thought again of those cries of "President Huo" she heard at the hot spring hotel.

Could there really be such a coincidence in this world?

Jiang Nannan noticed that Shu Xia was lost in thought, "Are you thinking about yourself? Fu Chenyan is also a piece of trash; he won't have a good ending. My cousin can start over, and you can even more so! Don't worry, I haven't forgotten what I promised you. That cousin of mine with the eight-pack abs is coming right away. He's seen your photo and said it was love at first sight."

Shu Xia was startled: "Your cousin is coming over?"

"Yeah, didn't I tell you a couple of days ago? I wanted to introduce my cousin to you. Don't worry, my cousin is a criminal police officer and can definitely protect you. If Fu Chenyan harasses you again, my cousin can definitely bring him to heel," Jiang Nannan winked at Shu Xia.

"Besides, my cousin has never been in a relationship; he says he'd rather have nothing than settle for less. Look at that, that's character!"

Shu Xia was speechless for a moment, feeling very helpless: "I'm married, I'm really married."

"Married to the air, you mean." Jiang Nannan patted Shu Xia on the shoulder, "Your sister won't lead you astray. My cousin there could crush a thousand Fu Chenyans!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than the person arrived.

A man one meter ninety tall walked in.

"Nannan."

Jiang Nannan looked toward Xing Yu, "Cousin, hurry over here. Shu Xia has already arrived before you. Didn't you say you were going to come half an hour early?"

"There was something at the bureau just now, so I went there first." Xing Yu walked over with his long legs.

When he saw Shu Xia, he was slightly stunned, but fortunately, he faced many criminal suspects and could manage to keep a straight face.

She was even more stunning in person than in the photo.

He instantly felt like a toad trying to eat swan meat.

"Hello, Miss Shu, I am Nannan's cousin, Xing Yu." Xing Yu reached out his hand toward Shu Xia.

Shu Xia politely shook it back, "Nannan's friend, Shu Xia."

Jiang Nannan let out an auntie-like smile on the side; the two of them looked so perfect together!

"Shu Xia, give me your phone for a second," Jiang Nannan said to Shu Xia.

Shu Xia unlocked it and handed the phone to Jiang Nannan, "What are you doing?"

"Taking a picture of you two."

And then I'll post it on my Moments to piss off Fu Chenyan!
