249: Can you open your horizons a little?

Zheng Weiler was very calm and didn't argue at all. When Shen Zhongjun said he wanted to talk about business, Zheng Weiler immediately said she would go find Shen Fei.

Shen Fei is with Xu Yao.

Zheng Weier and Shen Fei were quite familiar with each other, and she also knew Xu Yao’s situation. While Shen Fei was entertaining others, Zheng Weier asked Xu Yao directly: “Are Miss Xu and Mr. Gu really divorced?”

Xu Yao nodded: "It's stamped by the Civil Affairs Bureau, so it can't be fake."

Zheng Weier smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Miss Xu."

Xu Yao didn't seem to understand: "Thank me for what?"

"Thank you, Miss Xu, for being brave enough to love and hate, and for divorcing me on her own terms. Thank you, Miss Xu, for being strong and independent, unlike those power-hungry villains who immediately wanted to remarry after learning of Mr. Gu's identity. I know many people, but none of them are as resilient and resolute as Miss Xu!"

Zheng Weier's tone was sincere. Xu Yao stared at her for a long while and raised her glass: "Miss Zheng, you put so many hats on me. Are you afraid that I will remarry Gu Jun?"

Zheng Weier readily admitted, "Yes! As husband and wife, Miss Xu and Mr. Gu must have truly loved each other. I confirmed this with Miss Xu because I didn't want to be the third party in their relationship."

Zheng Weiler did not hide her feelings for Gu Jun.

Xu Yao felt upset because of Zheng Weiler's straightforwardness.

In fact, Xu Yao is not as open-minded as Zheng Weiler said. When she sees Gu Jun, Xu Yao still feels emotional.

But she suppressed her emotional changes and had no intention of rekindling her old relationship with Gu Jun. It takes time to forget someone, and Xu Yao can wait.

Xu Yao, the person involved, did not say or mention anything, but people like Old Lady Jiang and Zheng Weiler were very anxious. They all wanted to confirm the fact that Xu Yao and Gu Jun were divorced. One used words to provoke Xu Yao, and the other praised Xu Yao. Their words were different, but their purposes were the same... Xu Yao was angry, not because Zheng Weiler had a good impression of Gu Jun, but because she was angry at Old Lady Jiang and Zheng Weiler's disrespect for her.

If Xu Yao had Shen Fei's family background, would Mrs. Jiang and Zheng Weiler still speak like this?

Definitely not.

Their "openness" is actually very impolite.

The smile on Xu Yao's face faded, and she imitated Zheng Wei'er's straightforward tone of voice: "Ms. Zheng should show her confidence in front of Mr. Gu. Gu Jun and I are divorced. His new relationship does not require the approval of his ex-wife. Miss Zheng does not need to waste her time with me."

——We haven’t even started yet, what are you talking about a third party in the relationship?

Xu Yao was shocked by Zheng Weiler.

Is it because of the historical customs in Hong Kong? Zheng Weier is the daughter of a wealthy family after all. She ran to Xu Yao to declare her sovereignty just after meeting Gu Jun. Isn't she too impatient? With such a good family background, there are so many careers she can pursue. She won't die without a man!

After saying this, Xu Yao didn't want to bother with Zheng Weiler anymore and went somewhere else with her wine glass.

Shen Fei came back after a walk and saw Zheng Weier alone. She smiled and asked, "How are you getting along with Xu Yao? She has a good temper and most people can get along well with her."

Zheng Weiler smiled but said nothing.

Xu Yao has a bad temper. She looks gentle but is very prickly, like a fragrant rose with thorns.

It turns out that Gu Jun likes this one!

Zheng Wei'er seemed to be lost in thought, and Shen Fei stopped talking.

Zheng Weiler's feelings towards Gu Jun may not be personal, but may be the intention of the Zheng family. Regardless of whether Zheng Weiler has personal intentions or follows the arrangements of the Zheng family, she will not change her mind because of a few words from Shen Fei.

What Shen Fei has to do is to pull Xu Yao into this circle. As long as Xu Yao and the Shen family stand together, the cooperation between the Shen family and Huahu will have a chance.

Shen Fei privately asked Miss Qi what she thought of Xu Yao. Miss Qi thought about it seriously and said, "She's quite good. We can invite her to our gatherings more often in the future."

This statement is an acknowledgement of Xu Yao's meaning.

Shen Fei whispered, "If Gu Jun doesn't let go, the two will definitely remarry. It's not a loss for us to associate with her."

The boss of Huahu is popular in such occasions, and so is the boss's wife. Showing warmth to Xu Yao now will allow her to become the boss's best friend in the future. Shen Fei and Miss Qi are both clear-headed people.

…

Xu Yao didn't want to deal with Old Lady Jiang and Zheng Weiler, nor did she want to face the abnormal enthusiasm of Miss Qi and others, so she simply took her wine glass and went to the garden to get some fresh air.

Xu Yao has been to this garden.

That was also the Shen family's cocktail party... but at that time, Gu Jun was still Jiang Zhiyan's henchman. He left the party as soon as he showed up, without even saying hello to Xu Yao. After Gu Jun left, Tang Hao and a few other playboys stopped Xu Yao in the garden and specifically threatened to cause trouble for Xu Yao's newlywed husband.

Xu Yao felt annoyed when she thought about how she had foolishly defended Gu Jun in front of Tang Hao and the others.

If she had known that Gu Jun was the boss of Huahu, she should have asked Tang Hao and others to go to Huahu to block him, so that Gu Jun could give those playboys a good beating!

With something in mind, Xu Yao walked into the garden and when she looked up, she was stunned.

She saw Tang Hao and Chen Yan!

Tang Hao looked at Xu Yao with horror, "Are you really going to kill me all?"

Xu Yao didn't want Tang Hao to feel too comfortable, so she deliberately frightened him: "I'm fine, but I don't know if Gu Jun has a big heart."

Tang Hao became even more frightened.

Xu Yao didn't sympathize with Tang Hao at all.

Tang Hao is a bully because his family is rich. He is used to bullying others by taking advantage of his power, so he is afraid of being retaliated by Gu Jun.

In fact, Gu Jun had never touched Tang Hao before, and he would probably not do so in the future, as long as Tang Hao did not continue to do wrong things. Xu Yao knew Gu Jun's style of doing things, but she didn't tell Tang Hao, just to make Tang Hao worry.

Sure enough, Tang Hao was nervous for a long time and finally apologized to Xu Yao.

"I won't bother you anymore. Just treat me like a fart and let me go, okay?"

Regardless of whether Xu Yao will remarry Gu Jun or not, it’s always a good idea to say some soft words first!

Tang Hao was afraid Xu Yao wouldn't believe him, so he raised his hand and swore to the heavens, "I'll buy a ticket and leave South City tomorrow, and I won't be a bother to you anymore!"

Xu Yao was too lazy to pay attention to Tang Hao.

The lights in the garden weren't as bright as at the party. Chen Yan stood in the shadow of the vines, the dim light masking his depressed state. He suddenly asked Xu Yao, "When you divorced Gu Jun, did you know he was the boss of Huahu?"

——Probably not knowing.

Shen Yan was eager to prove something.

If Xu Yao didn't know either, Chen Yan would feel a little more psychologically balanced.

He couldn't describe his state of mind, it was just...

Xu Yao would neither indulge Tang Hao nor help Chen Yan resolve his emotional issues: "Of course I know!"

Since you knew that, why did you divorce Gu Jun?

Could it be that Gu Jun was the one who proposed the divorce?

Seeing Chen Yan's silence, Xu Yao pierced his thoughts: "You... now you think it must be Gu Jun who filed for divorce, right? After all, I know his identity, how could I bear to divorce him... Sometimes I really don't understand you men, you are always so self-righteous. When I broke off the engagement with you, didn't I know who you were? I can break off the engagement with you, and I can also divorce Gu Jun."

Xu Yao knew that no matter how much she said, these people would not believe her. Regardless of whether they were men or women, couldn't they just open their eyes a little? It didn't matter. Everyone would know her determination tomorrow!
