Ji Chen, who was originally furious, saw those eyes that could melt his heart instantly.
As if his anger had been extinguished instantly, he said, "Okay, you can rest well at home."
Ji Chen walked to the bicycle, staring at Sun Ze'an with a dark expression. "Let's go."
Sun Ze'an sat down in the back seat without any hesitation. As soon as they left the village, Sun Ze'an said in a cold and firm tone, "Stop the car."
Ji Chen, who had just heard the sound, had not yet had time to brake suddenly.
Sun Ze'an then jumped off the back seat.
His previously refined and scholarly gaze instantly turned cold and ruthless, even showing a hint of disdain as he looked at Ji Chen.
"Since your marriage is a sham, it's best not to get too involved."
Ji Chen sat in the car, one leg propped on the ground, one hand casually in his pocket, his eyes sizing up Sun Ze'an with a sinister look.
Who do you think you are?
Sun Ze'an, who appears to have fair skin, a refined demeanor, and a somewhat honest appearance, has completely changed his demeanor.
He exuded an arrogant aura and approached Ji Chen with an open and disdainful air, saying, "No one can touch what I've set my sights on."
Ji Chen gave a mocking sneer, "Hmph, you've got some nerve, ptooey."
Without saying a word, he turned the car around.
Back home, Ji Chen had a gloomy face the whole time, busy with his own anger, and didn't even want to glance at Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue was too lazy to try to figure out Ji Chen's thoughts. She noticed that it was getting late and looked at the clock on the wall; it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
She quickly called to Gu Xiaoling, "It's so late, settle everyone's wages and let them go home and rest early."
The aunties and uncles, having received their wages, excitedly stuffed the money into their pockets.
Aunt Wang stepped forward to comfort Jiang Xue, "Take good care of yourself and recover. We aunties and uncles will help you with the work and do it beautifully."
Jiang Xue was very polite and grateful to everyone. After a while, the noise gradually subsided.
Shaoheng and Shaomeng were playing with fabric at home obediently. Jiang Xue called Shaoheng over with a sense of relief, "Could you get me the coat from the bedside table? My aunt is a little cold."
Jiang Xue still has difficulty walking, and she moves step by step by touching the wooden planks and benches, not knowing how long it will take.
Shao Heng obediently ran to the room, retrieved the clothes, and handed them to Jiang Xue.
But Ji Chen, who was emerging from the kitchen, bumped right into them.
He grabbed the clothes, straightened them, and draped them over Jiang Xue's shoulders.
He sullenly squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth, "Who is that pretty boy? When did we become so close?"
Jiang Xue was taken aback at first, then came to her senses and realized that Ji Chen seemed to have been holding back his anger until now.
She suppressed a laugh as she looked at Ji Chen. "Aren't we supposed to keep to ourselves? Why are you suddenly curious about my affairs?"
She looked at Ji Chen with a mischievous grin.
Ji Chen caught a glimpse of her captivating eyes, and his heart pounded wildly.
His mind became increasingly confused. He thought about Jiang Xue from the past, Jiang Xue now, and even himself now, and it seemed he had fallen in love with her.
He turned around, and he could even feel himself blushing at his own thoughts. "It's nothing, it's nothing, I was just asking."
Jiang Xueyi said to Ji Chen with righteous indignation, "Don't forget, we're not getting a divorce because of your piece of land."
"There's one more thing I admit: I was a bit too persistent in the past, but I've let it go completely. As for you, I know that, and I've never brought it up. We're getting along well now, mainly because of the child. So we both need to stick to our own ideas and not let the slightest thing affect our judgment."
