Chen Jiayi knew Dingxiang's personality better than anyone else.

She said that as a gamble on whether she would pity her.

In her past life, if Dingxiang wanted something and Chen Jiayi didn't want to give it to her, Dingxiang would put on a very aggrieved look.

Perhaps it's because Dingxiang's personality is like Li Yuzhu's.

Therefore, although Dingxiang is still young, Chen Jiayi sees the shadow of Li Yuzhu in her.

Ding Xiang was eventually taken to the police station by A Long, but the police station was unable to contact Ding Haowen and the others.

The human trafficker was also sent to the police station, and he probably won't get out for the rest of his life.

Chen Jiayi didn't mean to meddle; it just so happened that Dingxiang bumped into her that day.

In fact, Chen Jiayi felt that Dingxiang wasn't just a coincidence, but rather that she had already made her choice long ago...

But she felt that her current thoughts were a bit strange, after all, Dingxiang was still just a child.

Unable to make up her mind, Chen Jiayi decided to go to Shen Jialiang and ask for his opinion.

Shen Jialiang hasn't been busy these past few days and has spent most of his time at home.

Seeing Chen Jiayi return, Shen Jialiang took off his apron and came out carrying the dishes, saying to Chen Jiayi.

"Wash your hands and eat."

"Okay." Chen Jiayi changed her shoes and noticed that her new shoes looked a bit brighter.

Did you wash my shoes?

"Yeah, I noticed you'd been wearing your shoes for a few days, so I just gave them a quick wash."

Chen Jiayi was a little surprised, she didn't expect Shen Jialiang to wash her shoes.

She washed her hands and used two small bowls to scoop rice from the wooden bucket. Then she took two pairs of chopsticks from a winnowing basket on the side.

The two sat down together, and Chen Jiayi took out chopsticks to share.

"Oh right, didn't I go out today? On my way back, I ran into my ex-husband's child with his mistress."

Shen Jialiang originally wanted to go to the restroom, but upon hearing Chen Jiayi's words, he sat back down.

Chen Jiayi explained the general situation to Shen Jialiang in detail, and Shen Jialiang pondered for a moment.

"I think Dingxiang had her eye on you from the very beginning. You stand out in the crowd, and your demeanor is clearly different from ordinary people. Plus, you have bodyguards around you who keep watching you."

If Dingxiang were truly shrewd, she certainly wouldn't have randomly chosen a woman for help. Choosing a man would have been the best option!

But she chose Chen Jiayi, a woman who looked very thin. This situation suggests that she was either with Da Biao and trying to lure Chen Jiayi away as well.

Or maybe they had their eye on Chen Jiayi from the very beginning!

Upon hearing Shen Jialiang's analysis, Chen Jiayi put down her chopsticks, and her expression turned cold.

"If that's really the case..."

In her previous life, Dingxiang tricked her into giving away all her wealth, which means it was a plan she had planned long ago.

Thinking about her fate in her past life, and how her daughter, whom she had raised, turned out to be an ungrateful wretch, Chen Jiayi felt a lump in her throat with anger.

She paused, then changed her approach, speaking hesitantly.

“I have a friend whose mother married a man who was quite well-off. But her husband didn’t like her, and then he had a child with his first love, which he brought back to my friend to raise.”

Seeing that Shen Jialiang was listening quietly, Chen Jiayi continued to speak.

"But my friend's mother didn't know at first that the child was hers and her lover's child. She raised the child with great difficulty, only to find that the child was an ungrateful wretch."

"Not only did he swindle all her money, but he also reunited with the father of the scumbag who was her lover. In the end, he disliked her mother for being old and useless, and kicked my friend's mother out."

Chen Jiayi's eyes darkened. "Fortunately, my friend found her mother and took good care of her in the end."

This sentence was made up by Chen Jiayi, but she changed it slightly, and the meaning is about the same.

"Later, my friend's mother's family found out that she had adopted a wealthy daughter, and they wanted to take her back as their mother. What do you think she should do?"

Shen Jialiang did not answer immediately, but simply looked calmly at Chen Jiayi.

For a moment, Chen Jiayi thought that Shen Jialiang already knew that she was actually talking about herself.

However, Shen Jialiang only swallowed the food in his mouth before slowly beginning to speak.

There's no need to look back on what's already happened.

Keep moving forward, don't look back.

Upon hearing Shen Jialiang's words, Chen Jiayi's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

She felt like she was about to cry, so she immediately put on a smile.

"I need to use the restroom."

Shen Jialiang stared at Chen Jiayi's departing figure, his eyes growing increasingly deep...

He always felt that Chen Jiayi's soul didn't match her current age, even if what Chen Jiayi said was true...

She might be someone who has been reborn!

Shen Jialiang's hands were itching.

What to do? I want to capture him for research.

But this is his wife!

Between reason and emotion, Shen Jialiang ultimately chose emotion.

When Chen Jiayi reappeared, she had fully recovered.

She very cleverly chose to subtly change the subject, not suddenly, but gradually.

Shen Jialiang knew that Chen Jiayi was changing the subject, but he wouldn't undermine her.

After the two finished eating, Chen Jiayi wanted to wash the dishes, but Shen Jialiang told her not to.

Chen Jiayi sat on the sofa, bored. She had no classes in the afternoon and could rest for the rest of the day.

With her instructor absent today, Chen Jiayi worried about wasting materials if she did the experiment alone without guidance.

After all, laboratory materials aren't something you can just use whenever you want; each person needs to keep track of how much material they use each month.

Chen Jiayi was originally thinking about whether to read a book or ask Shen Jialiang to guide her in doing experiments when a phone call came in.

"Hello?"

Chen Jiayi answered the phone and heard the voice of the person on the other end.

She paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

"Okay, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Jiayi planned to go out for a while.

Shen Jialiang had just finished washing the dishes and came out when he saw Chen Jiayi about to leave. He asked her in surprise.

Where are you going?

Shen Jialiang asked questions while wiping his hands.

Chen Jiayi rubbed her temples. "The police station said they couldn't contact Dingxiang's family and asked me to provide some other information."

That means I need to go to the police station.

Shen Jialiang nodded. "Wait for me a moment. I'll change my clothes and we'll go out together."

Chen Jiayi was surprised that Shen Jialiang wanted to go out with her. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she nodded.

"good."

Shen Jialiang didn't really need to change his clothes much; he just wore a white shirt and changed into a pair of pants of a different color.

Chen Jiayi looked at Shen Jialiang with some hesitation.

She suddenly realized that although she had been married to Shen Jialiang for some time, they seemed to have always been busy with their own things.

No, even when Shen Jialiang is busy, he will still find time to prepare what she needs.

Chen Jiayi suddenly felt a little guilty. As Shen Jialiang's wife, she hadn't prepared a few sets of clothes for him to change into.
