Jiang Yue discovered that it seemed everyone thought she was hopelessly in love with Zhou Ji.

It was as if she would die without this man.

Jiang Yue used to look down on women who would die for men, and she still does now.

Her personality is terrible and awful.

She was raised to be extremely spoiled from a young age.

What I hate most in my life is trying to please others.

She has never flattered anyone since birth, let alone groveled before a man.

Jiang Yue gave a cold laugh. Her features were already striking, and this laugh made her even more captivating. "Whatever."

The woman smiled and then uttered three words softly: "Who cares?"

Who cares whether she speaks well of her in front of Zhou Ji, or whether Zhou Ji loves her or not.

Zhou Ji's aunt was stunned upon hearing this, and her gaze towards her became complicated, cold and somewhat incredulous.

It seemed they felt she was being stubborn and refusing to admit it, just to save face.

Anyone can say harsh words.

She simply couldn't do it.

Every time you're treated coldly, don't you just accept it passively? You're incredibly patient.

Zhou Ji's aunt didn't want to talk to her anymore, but she couldn't help but say, "You better be telling the truth."

Jiang Yue ignored her.

During dinner, Jiang Yue was practically ignored.

Clearly, she had little status in the Zhou family. Zhou Ji's parents treated her with a distant attitude; it wasn't obvious that they disliked her, but they deliberately kept their distance.

This doesn't seem like the way one would treat a daughter-in-law.

Jiang Yuetai finished her dinner naturally, without trying to please the others at the table or appearing submissive.

She displayed an unexpected calm and composure.

He was neither overly attentive nor troublesome.

Everyone else at the table had their own agenda, especially the younger generation who had spoken ill of Jiang Yue in the family group chat. They couldn't help but glance at her out of the corner of their eyes again and again.

I haven't seen this sister-in-law in so long.

She seems like a completely different person.

She was refined and quiet, and her eating manners were many times more proper than before.

The timidity and obsequiousness in her were no longer visible.

This is really unusual.

I wonder what she's planning to do next.

Jiang Yue noticed the intentional or unintentional gazes of these people. She put down the porcelain bowl in her hand and looked up at the young people sitting opposite her.

He met her gaze.

The expressions on their faces were all very unnatural.

He seemed particularly guilty.

What are they so guilty about?! They just told the truth!

But her gaze is really intimidating!

They look a lot like their cold-hearted cousin.

Even their condescending, disdainful manner of looking down on others is exactly the same.

In a way, these two truly deserve to be called a married couple.

After dinner, Jiang Yue decided to leave.

As for the child, she didn't plan to take him with her; it's fine to leave him here to be raised.

save trouble.

As she was about to leave, her younger cousin stopped her. He was also a freshman in college, tall, and looked uncomfortable. "Sister-in-law."

Jiang Yue raised her chin and gave a faint "hmm".

My cousin said reluctantly, "We didn't mean it in the group chat that day. We just saw the news and said it casually. Don't take it to heart."

actually.

They were still very afraid that Jiang Yue would tell her cousin!

A few seconds later, Jiang Yue asked lazily, "What did you two talk about that day?"

After saying that, she seemed to recall for a long time, then said, "Oh, I remember now."

My cousin looked grim; he didn't know what she was pretending for.

It looks quite convincing.

The acting was quite convincing.

Jiang Yue casually replied, "So you're saying I'm going to get dumped?"

My cousin didn't say a word.

How can she have such a good memory? Can't she forget things? She holds grudges so badly!

But then I think about her nickname in the group chat—【Vile Little Jiang】

Suddenly, I felt relieved again.

He's a pretty vicious person.

Now they've all learned to deliberately dangle them in their shoes and torture them to death!

Bad stuff.

"I already said we only discussed it out of curiosity after seeing it in the news. If you're really bothered by it..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted: "I don't mind at all, I'd love to."

Jiang Yue was getting annoyed too. The feeling of being misunderstood by the whole world as loving Zhou Ji to the point of death was not pleasant at all.

How could a noble princess like her possibly be interested in Zhou Ji?

The chances of Zhou Ji wanting to eat swan meat are much greater than the chances of her liking him.

"Don't think I like Zhou Ji that much."

"That's not true."

"As for whether or not we should get a divorce, I don't care. Say whatever you want. I don't like him at all."

My cousin opened his mouth wide, as if he was very surprised.

He stared wide-eyed, as if looking at her, or perhaps at something behind her.

Just then, Jiang Yue's phone rang, and WeChat messages kept popping up. There were work colleagues and fake concern messages from her wealthy but superficial best friends.

Her younger cousin was still staring blankly behind her, stammering, "Cousin...cousin."

Jiang Yue was engrossed in reading the message and didn't hear what he was saying. She brushed past him and walked away without looking back.

Zhou Ji gazed at the woman's slender, graceful back for a while before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

He had heard everything she said clearly.

Hearing from her that she doesn't like me isn't so hard to accept.

Because Zhou Ji had no feelings for her either.

If she has truly come to terms with it, it's a good thing.

What's annoying is that it might be another of her scheming tricks.

Zhou Ji glanced indifferently at Zhou Yu'an's face. "Since you like watching the news so much, go directly to the company's public relations department after graduation. There will be plenty of news for you to read."

Zhou Yu'an blushed with embarrassment, but his apology was sincere: "Cousin, I was wrong."

Suddenly he hesitated, then thought for a moment and kept his mouth shut.

He initially thought that Jiang Yue had only blurted out harsh words to save face, and that she might not have meant them sincerely.

But he had just inadvertently glanced at Jiang Yue's phone screen.

I could clearly see the nickname she gave her cousin on WeChat—

This is not the husband I used to have.

Instead, it was changed to a clear and glaring "ATM".

It's pretty... straightforward.

She actually treated her cousin like a cash cow? I've never seen anything like it.

Zhou Yu'an admitted his mistake, and the matter of what they had said in the group chat was finally over. Only after her cousin went upstairs did her little cousin dare to jump out from the corner.

"I was so scared! My cousin's face was like an ice cube just now."

Cold as ice, expressionless.

"But don't you think..."

Zhou Yu'an looked at her: "What do you think?"

My little cousin thought for a while and then came up with a good answer: "Jiang Yue has become more beautiful and has become very elegant."

His demeanor and bearing just now.

Those who don't know her might think she's a rich heiress from a wealthy family.

Zhou Yu'an, a clueless straight man, couldn't possibly observe such details. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know."

He then muttered to himself, "But she's definitely not as annoying as she used to be."
