For Xie Jing, it seemed she was always a supporting character. Though the eldest daughter, her parents favored her twin younger siblings, Xie Wuyi and Xie Wuyou more. In terms of family affection, ...
Others who see this scene will sigh that it’s great to be young, but to some people it is particularly annoying, for example... Chen Yaozhi?
Chen Yaozhi saw Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun as soon as they entered the waiting room. Unfortunately, after they sat down, they didn't look around and just leaned against each other and talked.
Chen Yaozhi was sitting in a corner, sulking alone. She was irritated whenever she saw Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun. Ever since her and Zhou Jiwen's engagement party was called off, Chen Yaozhi felt like nothing was going her way.
Especially after Zhou Jiwen's incident, Chen Yaozhi also became a joke in the circle. Even though Chen Yaozhi was deceived into marriage by Zhou Jiwen, she was also a victim.
But the outside world will not think so. The outside world will only say that Chen Yaozhi had been with Zhou Jiwen after all, and whenever there is any stain on Zhou Jiwen, Chen Yaozhi will always be mentioned.
Especially now that Zhou Jiwen has to serve another ten years in prison, this is even bigger news. The former nobleman, now reduced to a prisoner, the disparity between one day and one place is enough to drive people crazy.
And Chen Yaozhi's fake sisters, whenever they get together with Shen Yaozhi, always mention Chen Yaozhi in some way or another. From time to time, they would also bring up Xie Jing to talk about, which made Chen Yaozhi even more upset.
But she couldn't say anything yet. Xie Jing was no longer the unpopular eldest daughter of the Xie family. She now had a background and family protection, and she was also Zhou Jiyun's wife.
If she offended Xie Jing, not to mention the Yun family in the capital, even in S City, it would be easy for Zhou Jiyun to deal with the Shen family.
It’s true that Shen Yaozhi was not so wary of Xie Jing before, but just after her engagement party with Zhou Jiwen was called off, Shen Fu was thinking of taking revenge on the Zhou family.
But who knew that the Shen family's own company was hit first, and they couldn't find out who the opponent was. Shen Fu still had to use a lot of favors, and finally found Zhou Jiyun through so many people asking for help.
But Zhou Jiyun was very cunning. He did not deal with the Shen family himself, but asked others to do it for him, promising huge profits. Some time ago, Shen Fu was busy solving the company's problems.
She had finally managed to stabilize the company, and all the work she had done in the past few years had been in vain. Unfortunately, Zhou Jiwen and Zhou Zhida had gotten into trouble, and Shen Yaozhi felt as if two thunderbolts had struck her head.
She just wanted to ask if it was over yet? But she didn't dare to find Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing, so in order to avoid social events during the Spring Festival, Chen Yaozhi booked a plane ticket to travel.
As luck would have it, she actually met Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun here.
Looking at the twin brothers sitting behind Xie Jing, they must be her cousins. Sending her eldest grandson to accompany her was a way of conveying to the outside world how much the Yun family valued Xie Jing?
Thinking of this, Shen Yaozhi couldn't help but lower her eyes and smile sarcastically, but she knew how much pain she had endured. She was originally the only daughter of the Shen family, a true rich lady, and was also favored.
But how did she end up living her life like this?
Perhaps Chen Yaozhi had stared at Xie Jing for too long, which caught Yun Zhao's attention. Yun Zhao nudged Zhu Li with his elbow and asked, "Do you know that girl?"
Yun Xu raised an eyebrow: "You already have Zhu Li, why are you still looking at other girls?"
Yun Zhao glared at him and said, "Get lost! I noticed she was staring at Jingjing."
Zhu Li: "A Zhao is not that kind of person."
As she spoke, she glanced in the direction of Chen Yaozhi and suddenly laughed: "That's Chen Yaozhi, Shen Fu's only daughter. She was almost engaged to Zhou Jiwen before."
"It's her." Yun Xu understood: "Is she holding a grudge against our Jingjing?"
The three of them spoke quietly, but since they were sitting together, Xie Jing naturally heard them. Therefore, Xie Jing also turned her head to look in the direction of Chen Yaozhi, who happened to be looking in her direction, and the two of them happened to make eye contact.
Both parties were stunned. Xie Jing came back to her senses first. She just nodded slightly at her and no longer looked at Chen Yaozhi.
Chen Yaozhi bit her lip. She put down the magazine she was using to kill time, hesitated for a moment, and walked up to Xie Jing: "Can we... talk?"
Xie Jing checked the time: "I only have twenty minutes."
Zhou Jiyun was a little worried holding Xie Jing's hand. Chen Yaozhi looked at this scene and found it funny: "There's a coffee shop across the street. You can see it from here."
Zhu Li interrupted: "Do you mind if I join you? I haven't tried the airport coffee yet."
Chen Yaozhi didn't care: "If Miss Zhu Li is willing, then we can come together."
Zhu Li put his arm around Xie Jing's shoulder and said, "Let's go, brother-in-law. Don't worry, I will definitely help you take good care of your sister."
Zhou Jiyun raised his eyebrows: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Zhu Li was not at all shy about being called sister-in-law: "You're welcome."
Yun Xu couldn't bear to see Yun Zhao's smugness: "It's good to have a girlfriend."
Yun Zhao kept a straight face, but a smile still trickled down his eyes: "Of course."
Xie Jing pinched her earlobe. Ever since she married Zhou Jiyun, she had always been called "sister-in-law." But now, she was still a little uncomfortable calling someone "sister-in-law."
But seeing how protective Zhu Li was of her child, Xie Jing couldn't help but criticize her. Did she look like some fragile little white flower? Did she need someone to look after her all the time? Although she didn't talk much, she could fight too.
It's just that she rarely does it.
The three of them sat down in the coffee shop across the street. Just as Chen Yaozhi had said, they could see clearly from here. However, at this moment, none of the three men who stayed behind lowered their heads to look at their phones. They all stared at the coffee shop across the street.
In the coffee shop, Chen Yaozhi looked at Xie Jing and Zhu Li across from him and could no longer smile: "Long time no see, seeing you like this, are you doing well now?"
Xie Jing held Zhu Li's hand and said, "Well, I am indeed living a good life now."
"But I'm not feeling well at all now," Shen Yaozhi stirred the coffee. "Ever since Zhou Jiwen and Jiang Cha's relationship was exposed, I haven't been feeling well at all."
Xie Jing: "Oh? Are you blaming us for exposing all this?"
"It was indeed you and your wife who did it," Chen Yaozhi guessed that it was Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing who did it, but she didn't expect Xie Jing to admit it so easily.
"Indeed, we did it," Xie Jing did not deny it. "Jiyun has endured so much pain because of Zhou Zhida for so many years. How could I possibly watch Zhou Zhida get better and better?"
"But I am innocent! Have you ever thought about hurting innocent people by doing this?" Chen Yaozhi couldn't hold back and glared at Xie Jing.
"Are you really innocent?" Xie Jing put down the spoon. "Looking back now, do you really think you're innocent?"
"Shen Fu clearly knew about the conflict between the first and second branches of the Zhou family, but he still agreed to your marriage with Zhou Jiwen. Ultimately, Shen Fu was just placing a bet, and he favored Zhou Zhida."
