Chapter 36 Greedy for money but not love-struck



Sun Ze'an looked at Jiang Xue with a puzzled expression. "What are you doing here?" He pointed to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

"Are you planning to get married?" Sun Ze'an couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked.

He glanced at the tall and handsome Ji Chen, and his heart pounded. Could it be that these two people...

Jiang Xue laughed and said, "Oh dear, we're not married, we're just here to get a divorce."

Sun Ze'an's face immediately showed astonishment, "You're already married?"

Seeing that Sun Ze'an seemed unusually curious about her, Jiang Xue said, "Yes, and I've already made your tie. You can pick it up when you have time."

Sun Ze'an didn't answer Jiang Xue directly, but continued to press, "You two are so young, so talented and beautiful, why are you thinking about divorce?"

"No, our marriage was a sham before, otherwise my parents would have forced me to marry that old man." Jiang Xue was losing patience with Sun Ze'an's excessive concern. Not only did she have a lot of work to do, but she also had to plan her second business.

There's no time to waste chatting with the children of high-ranking officials who have secure jobs.

"Oh, I see. That's great! Wait for me, I'll come to your shop this afternoon." He smiled broadly.

Just before getting into the car, he added, "Last time I went to your shop, I saw that the sun was quite strong in the afternoon. I just bought a parasol a couple of days ago, so I'll go over this afternoon and open it for you."

Jiang Xue, looking embarrassed, declined, saying, "No need, no need."

To everyone's surprise, Sun Ze'an's enthusiasm only increased. "Why are you being so polite with me? I know the city better than you do. If you need anything, just let me know." With that, he rode off on his bicycle without giving Jiang Xue any chance to refuse.

Ji Chen looked displeased and said irritably, "It really does look familiar."

Jiang Xue completely missed the sour tone in Ji Chen's words and quickly waved her hand, "We're not that familiar. I've only met him twice. It's just that he's a highly educated person and is very polite in his speech and actions."

Jiang Xue strode into the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding Shao Heng's hand.

"Isn't this the young couple from the Ji family?"

Ji Chen turned around and asked, "Uncle, what are you doing here?"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xue stepped forward and greeted her warmly.

"What are you two doing?" Liu Zhenguo got off his bicycle, his briefcase still hanging from the handlebars.

"We're getting a divorce," Ji Chen said nonchalantly.

"You two idiots, come here, come here." Liu Zhenguo was the director of the township health center. As a minor official, he certainly knew more about some things than ordinary people.

Ji Chen and Jiang Xue stared at Liu Zhenguo in bewilderment.

"You two don't know, the hills, bamboo forests, and mountains across the reservoir will also be allocated to you according to the number of people in your household registration. Now you are missing one person, which means you are missing a large area of ​​hills."

Jiang Xue's eyes lit up immediately, "I'll have one too?"

“Of course! My uncle has a job in town, how could the news be false?” Liu Zhenguo snatched the marriage certificate from Ji Chen’s hand.

“Your mother is illiterate and just makes a mess of things. It’s okay if your wife is lazy or loves to eat. We’re men. We married her, so how can we not support her?” Without saying another word, he stuffed Ji Chen’s marriage certificate into his briefcase.

Thinking about the hilltops, bamboo forests, and mountain land that would be allocated later, Jiang Xue immediately handed her marriage certificate to Liu Zhenguo, saying, "Uncle, here's mine too."

Ji Chen stared in astonishment at Jiang Xue's sudden and swift change of heart.

“From now on, I’ll keep this safe for you. You’ve been messing around all this time. The 300 yuan you got for your wedding was from your uncle. You can’t just let it go to waste like this.” Liu Zhenguo said seriously, then rode off on his bicycle at high speed.
