Chapter 103: Being clever and outsmarting others
"A lot of people saw it," Niu Cuihua said. "We didn't go there, we just heard about it."
"It's amazing." Jiang Moli sighed.
"They say a fortune teller said that," Niu Cuihua said. "If they don't fix it, Shi Nan's wife won't be able to get pregnant. That Shi Nan is even older than you, and he still doesn't have any children."
Shi Nan has changed several women in the meantime, but his current wife is still not pregnant.
"It's hard to say whose fault it is." Niu Cuihua said.
"Sister-in-law, you guys just watch it." Jiang Moli said, "Just treat it as a fun thing to watch."
"It's all just for fun," Niu Cuihua said. "The Shi family's daughter-in-law is truly amazing."
Niu Cuihua didn't dare do what she did. Pan Yun hadn't given the Shi family face during Chinese New Year, and others had heard what she said. Neighbors didn't say much about Pan Yun, at most saying that evildoers will be punished.
Shi's mother had offended many people on the street before, and many people wanted to see her embarrassed, so they couldn't go over to help her. It was the Shi family's family affair. Shi's mother was asking for trouble, so let her do it. It would be fine after a while.
"It seems that Shi Nan's elder sister went to look for him, but Shi Nan and the others were not at home." Niu Cuihua said.
"Did anyone follow?" Jiang Moli asked.
"No, it was the Shi family who said it themselves." Niu Cuihua said.
Zhao Jiaojiao looked at the little brother, then at her brother. She still liked her cousin more because her cousin was cute.
After lunch, Zhao Guodong and his wife played for a while before returning home with their children. Niu Cuihua and his wife didn't explain the money issue to Jiang Moli. They would pay Jiang Moli back when they saved some money. Jiang Moli wouldn't say anything wrong about Niu Cuihua and his wife; there was no need to explain; everyone had a tacit understanding.
When Niu Cuihua left, Jiang Moli packed some things for Niu Cuihua and her husband to take back.
Jiang Moli hadn't heard from Shi Nan for a long time. She and Shi Nan didn't live close to each other. They were people from different walks of life. Jiang Moli couldn't have deliberately walked in front of Shi Nan. She didn't need Shi Nan to be obsessed with her, and she didn't like Shi Nan either.
Whether Shi Nan is married or has children has nothing to do with Jiang Moli.
When Jiang Moli and Sheng Jiahao were taking a walk, they didn't talk about Shi Nan, but talked about Jiang Moli's schedule.
"I have to go to the capital in a few days." Jiang Moli said, "Please keep an eye on the baby."
"No problem." Sheng Jiahao said.
Jiang Moli had to attend the Lantern Festival Gala recording. She was going to sing a song instead of an opera. This was a scheduled event. Jiang Moli had to go on stage and had to go a few days in advance, which meant she couldn't celebrate the Lantern Festival with her family.
This Lantern Festival Gala is on CCTV, so Jiang Moli still has to go.
After Jiang Moli's new play became a huge hit, she had more opportunities. This time, Jiang Moli didn't go on stage with the cast of "Dream of the Red Chamber." Instead, she sang a song on her own, with other people singing before and after. This was considered a program. This meant Jiang Moli had more screen time. Although it wasn't the Spring Festival Gala, and there weren't as many people waiting to see her, Jiang Moli was very satisfied.
This was a great opportunity for Jiang Moli. Her boss also felt she had to go. The Provincial Little Hundred Flowers Band was still arranging performances in the capital, and Jiang Moli would have to perform there. This meant she had to go a few days early, and she still had three performances to go. This meant she would have to stay in the capital for ten days to half a month.
This was the first time Jiang Moli had been away from home for such an extended period since she gave birth. She was a little worried about her child and wanted to spend more time with her, but she had no other options. Balancing career and family wasn't easy. If it weren't for someone at home taking care of the child, Jiang Moli wouldn't have been able to handle this.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of the family matters." Sheng Jiahao held Jiang Moli's hand tightly, "Go and do your thing."
"Are you feeling wronged?" Jiang Moli asked Sheng Jiahao.
"I don't feel wronged. It's my honor to be with you." Sheng Jiahao said, "I'm very happy that you've developed well. We're all very happy. We still have to do what we have to do. If we don't, we will regret it later."
"Yes, I will regret it." Jiang Moli said, "I may also regret not taking good care of the child."
"You don't have many performances in the capital. You and the people from your unit will perform separately." Sheng Jiahao said, "If you calculate the time, it will take several days. If you finish the performance early, you can also come back early."
"Well, we don't have many performances scheduled for this play," Jiang Moli said. "We have no shortage of audiences for our new play. Even in South City, tickets are selling very well. We also need to go to other provinces. We need to further expand the influence of this play."
Someone at work said that if Jiang Moli hadn't won an award before, she could still win it this time with her new play. Jiang Moli didn't plan to apply for the award again. Winning once was enough, and she had to give others a chance. If Jiang Moli entered this time, it would be a crushing victory, but there was really no need.
Many opera performers are excellent, all eager for an opportunity. Jiang Moli can't help but give others a chance, and others might accuse her of being too strong-willed and unwilling to give in. This award itself is meant to encourage young and middle-aged opera performers, with a different person being recognized each year.
Jiang Moli heard that a new policy was coming, changing the award ceremony to a biennial one, but the news hadn't been finalized yet. If it really were to change to a biennial one, there wouldn't be as many winners, and the competition would be even more intense. If it were an annual one, the number of winners would be double, but if it were a biennial one, the number would be smaller, and everyone would still have to compete.
Winning an award is affirmation, and it also serves as publicity, which will greatly increase one's visibility. There is no opera actor who doesn't want to be known, and no one wants to just perform in obscurity. This is the nature of their profession. The more famous they are, the more people will come to see their plays.
"There are other local theater troupes going to other provinces to perform." Jiang Moli said, "We will try to stagger our schedules with those local theater troupes."
The Provincial Little Hundred Flowers had considered the difficulties faced by local opera troupes. If they all performed at the same time, it would inevitably affect the ticket sales of local opera troupes. With Jiang Moli in charge, everything was fine.
"Would you still consider this?" Sheng Jiahao asked.
"That's right." Jiang Moli said, "If we all gather together, it will be hard to get tickets, and we will make less money. It will be better if we stagger them a little bit."
The number of tickets for local theater troupes is small, not a lot, and they don't perform in larger venues. Some local theater troupes perform in rural areas, of various kinds.
"I don't really understand these things. Anyway, the unit will make the arrangements, and I will just do things according to the unit's arrangements." Jiang Moli said.
Two days before Jiang Moli left, she told her mother some things.
"You don't have to tell me. I will take good care of the baby." Jiang's mother said, "But you, you've been away for such a long time this time."
"I'll be back by plane after the show. It'll be quick." Jiang Moli said, "Our show isn't scheduled for very late."
"It's just not the last day to come back." Jiang's mother still knew what Jiang Moli was thinking. As long as it wasn't the last day, it wouldn't be too late. "Didn't your company let you be the last one?"
"This... isn't that complicated," Jiang Moli said. "Different shows have separate ticket sales. There's no such thing as a finale."
"That's right." Jiang's mother nodded. "Come back early then."
"Okay." Jiang Moli said, "I'll be back as soon as I'm done. I also want to see the child sooner."
The baby can eat some complementary food now, and Jiang Moli has also fed the baby. Jiang Moli looks at the baby and wonders if the baby will look bigger when she comes back.
He Jingxian went back to acting in TV series. As long as a production team wanted to see her, she would take the role if it was suitable. He Jingxian was lucky enough to be able to act in many roles. Some people would not have other opportunities for a long time after acting in a TV series. However, He Jingxian had the support of her second aunt Qi, and she also worked hard to find opportunities. This is why she was able to act in TV series one after another, and the window period was not very short.
Aunt Qi certainly didn't want He Jingxian to go to the theater during the first month of the year, but He Jingxian didn't do anything at home and instead became a burden. It would be better to let He Jingxian go out to act in a TV series. It would be better for He Jingxian not to stay at home.
This is also what Qi's mother meant. He Jingxian can't sit idle, so let He Jingxian be busy.
"Is it okay for He Jingxian to be like this and never stay at home?" Second Aunt Qi asked Qi's mother when she was at Qi's house.
"She's even more noisy at home," said Qi's mother. "She scares the children to tears. She doesn't act like a loving mother at all. If she continues to stay at home, the children won't dare to speak. I really don't know how she became like this. Since she wants to act in a TV series, let her do it."
"Did she give her money to Shixin?" Aunt Qi asked. Qi Shixin worked and took care of the children at home. He Jingxian couldn't just give him nothing.
"She just didn't give it to me. She took her salary all by herself, and Shixin never asked her for it," Qi's mother said. "It's not right for a grown man to ask a woman for money. Shixin didn't have enough money, so he asked us for it. He has to raise his three children first. He can't just ignore them."
Qi's mother didn't like girls, but the three children were her granddaughters after all, so she couldn't ignore them. Because of this incident, Qi's mother's eldest daughter-in-law was not very happy. She felt that her parents-in-law had given all their money to Qi Shixin.
"Do you want me to deduct some from the company?" asked Aunt Qi.
"No need to deduct it." Qi's mother said, "If you deduct He Jingxian's money, she will still scare the children when she comes back. It's better to let her be."
"..." Aunt Qi sighed, "I'm afraid her heart has become wild."
He Jingxian met a man on the set who said he could take her abroad, but only if she divorced. There were many opportunities for them to perform abroad, and they could go to the United States, where conditions were better and more developed.
After hearing this, He Jingxian was very moved. He Jingxian had a bad health after giving birth, and she didn't dare to tell that person, for fear that he would not take her abroad after knowing. He Jingxian herself didn't have many roles in acting, so she wanted to get things done as soon as possible.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, He Jingxian called Qi Shixin. Qi Shixin originally thought that He Jingxian wanted to check on the child, but he didn't expect He Jingxian to talk about divorce.
"Let's get a divorce." He Jingxian said, "If we get a divorce, you can find another woman and continue to have sons."
"Divorce?" Qi Shixin was shocked. He didn't expect He Jingxian to talk about divorce at this time. Today is the Lantern Festival.
"Yes." He Jingxian said, "This is something I've thought about carefully. Let's get divorced. I'll let you go, and you'll let me go."
"You..." Qi Shixin paused.
"We have to get a divorce. Whether you agree or not, I'm going to divorce you." He Jingxian said, "If you don't want me to stay in the South City Drama Troupe, I can leave..."
"Are you willing to leave the Nancheng Drama Troupe in order to divorce me?" Qi Shixin asked.
"Yes, as long as I can divorce you, I'm willing to leave not only the South City Drama Troupe but even South City itself," He Jingxian said. "Do you agree or not?"
"Where is the child?" Qi Shixin asked again.
"You are the one who asked me to have this child, so of course the child must follow you." He Jingxian said, "The child will have your surname."
"Okay, come back and we'll get a divorce." Qi Shixin didn't want to ask any more questions. There was no point in asking any more. He Jingxian was determined to get a divorce, and nothing Qi Shixin said would make any difference.
"Don't regret it after I go back." He Jingxian said, "Are you going to tell your parents? Or should we wait until we get divorced?"
"Let's talk about it after the divorce." Qi Shixin said.
"Okay, I'll be back soon. I still have two or three days of filming." He Jingxian said, "You should prepare well. You have to take care of the child yourself. Don't even think about leaving him to me."
He Jingxian once again emphasized that she did not want any children, not even one. He Jingxian was unable to have children, and she had not even thought about having any.
That evening, Shi's mother saw Jiang Moli on TV again. Jiang Moli appeared on CCTV's Lantern Festival Gala. This time, Shi's mother was not so unhappy. Perhaps after being tormented by Pan Yun, Shi's mother felt that Pan Yun was the most annoying person, and the image of others in Shi's eyes improved a lot.
Shi's mother didn't want to keep an eye on Jiang Moli's affairs. Jiang Moli was so popular that she even saw Jiang Moli's posters when she went out.
It was almost the end of the month when Jiang Moli returned from the capital.
Jiang Moli first wanted to check on the baby to see if the baby felt she was strange. She was not a stranger.
"Mom, it's mom." Jiang Moli said to the baby.
The little baby looked at Jiang Moli. He didn't cry, he just looked at her with some curiosity.
"It's only been a short time, just over ten days, and you've already forgotten your mother?" Jiang Moli reached out and poked the baby's cheek, "It's mom, mom is back."
"More than ten days isn't a short time. Children forget things quickly," Jiang's mother said. "But judging by the baby's behavior, he probably hasn't completely forgotten you."
"We have to stay for so many days for the performance," Jiang Moli said. "We could have come back earlier, but all the tickets are sold out, and they added more shows."
Jiang Moli could only work according to the company's arrangements, so she would come back later. Jiang Moli's new play was really a hit, and the people in the capital also liked it very much.
When Jiang Moli was performing her new play in the capital, she was worried that the city wouldn't like it and that not many people would go to see it. But it was so popular that someone suggested adding more performances, and after applying, they did.
Jiang Moli can only stay in the capital for a few more days. She is the leading actress and cannot run away or let others replace her.
"This is indeed good," said Jiang's mother. "As long as it's popular, it's good. Otherwise, the children won't be able to see it, and the show won't be good."
"Baby, mommy's little baby." Jiang Moli looked at her son again.
"Ah, ah." The baby stretched out his hand towards Jiang Moli. Jiang Moli quickly stretched out a finger and let the baby hold her hand.
When Sheng Jiahao returned home, he saw Jiang Moli and he smiled.
When Jiang Moli said she would be back a few days later, Sheng Jiahao felt a little disappointed, but he still did not say anything bad about Jiang Moli, but chose to support her. Sheng Jiahao knew that Jiang Moli was busy with her career long before they were together, and he could not say anything bad about Jiang Moli just because she would be back a few days later.
"I'm back." Jiang Moli said to Sheng Jiahao.
"Baby misses you." Sheng Jiahao said, "I miss you too."
"Yeah, I miss you too." Jiang Moli chuckled.
At this time, He Jingxian and Qi Shixin had already divorced. He Jingxian did not think about going through the procedures to leave the Nancheng Drama Troupe, but was thinking about waiting for her to go abroad. Naturally, she would not stay in the Nancheng Drama Troupe.
Although He Jingxian did not go through the formalities and Second Aunt Qi did not go through the resignation procedures for He Jingxian, many people knew about He Jingxian and Qi Shixin's divorce.
When Zhou Yiran went to Jiang Moli's house, she told her about He Jingxian's divorce.
"I can't believe they're getting divorced." Zhou Yiran sat on the sofa. She didn't bring her child with her because she had to go to school. She came here because she knew Jiang Moli was off today. "I was shocked when I heard the news and even asked if it was true."
"Divorce?" Not only was Zhou Yiran shocked, but Jiang Moli was also very shocked.
"Yes, they're divorced." Zhou Yiran said, "Someone asked Qi Shixin's aunt, and she said it was true."
"this……"
"That aunt had previously helped He Jingxian contact TV crews, allowing He Jingxian to participate in TV dramas." Zhou Yiran said, "He Jingxian has only acted in a few TV dramas, the second one, I think, and He Jingxian is about to divorce Qi Shixin. I don't know if He Jingxian has married into a wealthy family. If not, someone like He Jingxian would never divorce Qi Shixin."
"I'm not sure about that." Jiang Moli said. She really didn't know because she hadn't filmed with He Jingxian.
"I feel like that's probably the case," Zhou Yiran said. "She's finished filming that TV series these past few days, but she still hasn't come to work. She hasn't completed her resignation procedures yet and is still an employee of our company. I don't know what she's going to do now. He Jingxian doesn't want her three daughters anymore, and she doesn't care about them."
"..." Jiang Moli didn't expect He Jingxian to become like this. He Jingxian married Qi Shixin in order to stay in Nancheng.
"Let's wait and see what she does next." Zhou Yiran said, "It feels like we just graduated from school yesterday, and so many things have happened today."
"She's like this... maybe..." Jiang Moli really couldn't say anything good about He Jingxian against her conscience.
In order to live a better life for herself, He Jingxian didn't want to take care of her three daughters. It was not impossible for her to do so. However, since He Jingxian graduated from school, she had not performed very well.
"Don't talk about her." Jiang Moli said. She didn't like to say bad things about other women.
Jiang Moli supports those people in striving for their own careers, but when it comes to family matters, Jiang Moli thinks it is difficult for a judge to judge family affairs, and she has no idea whether what others do is good or bad. Jiang Moli thinks that if she were He Jingxian, she might not make a better decision.
When He Jingxian went to look for that man, she learned that he had gone abroad. He didn't know how he got the news that He Jingxian couldn't have children, so he left immediately. He didn't really like He Jingxian, he just said it casually. He Jingxian couldn't believe it. She was already divorced, and that man had run away and didn't want her anymore. What should she do?
He Jingxian was very sad. She thought it was a good thing that she hadn't told anyone at work that she was leaving and that she was going abroad. He Jingxian had originally thought that she would tell them after everything was done, and she had to do it quietly because she was afraid that others would not let her go abroad.
As a result, the man ran away and did not take her abroad.
He Jingxian had no choice but to go back to Nancheng. She couldn't go back to the Qi family, so she went to work. He Jingxian had no place to live, and she didn't want to live in the work dormitory with others, so she simply rented a house outside.
Aunt Qi was very unhappy to see He Jingxian coming back. She asked He Jingxian to go to her office and she wanted He Jingxian to explain things clearly.
"Aren't you leaving the company? Are you here to complete the resignation procedures?" asked Aunt Qi Er.
"No, I'm leaving. I want to stay in the company." He Jingxian said, "After all, I have three children with Shixin. Aunt, you won't be unwilling to let me stay in the company, right? If the children grow up and know that you forced me to leave..."
"Stop, if you want to stay at the company, then stay." Aunt Qi said, "If you go out again, you have to ask for leave from the company and explain the reason. You can't ask me to handle the leave application procedures for you every time. You didn't go out to film a TV series this time, and you left without telling me."
"This is just a small thing for you." He Jingxian said.
"It's a small matter... That man didn't take you abroad, which is also a small matter." Aunt Qi said.
"You..." He Jingxian opened her eyes wide and looked at Aunt Qi. She didn't expect that Aunt Qi actually knew about this matter. She thought that Aunt Qi and others didn't know about it.
"Do you think no one knows what you did on the crew?" Aunt Qi said.
"I……"
"You want to stay at the company. No one is forcing you to leave," Aunt Qi said. "As you said, you're still the mother of three children at Shih Hsin. How can I make things difficult for you?"
Second Aunt Qi snorted. She had arranged so many opportunities for He Jingxian. If He Jingxian wanted to sing, she could sing. If she wanted to act in a TV series, she could act in a TV series. He Jingxian's mind was full of muddle. When someone said they would take her abroad, she believed it was true. If someone really wanted to take someone abroad, why not take a young and beautiful girl? Why would they take He Jingxian, who had already given birth to three children?
"It's you. Did you go find that guy? Did you tell him about my faults?" He Jingxian rushed to Aunt Qi's desk.
"You don't need me to tell you, and I didn't tell you either," Aunt Qi said. "You've already divorced Shixin, why should I tell you? Men, do you think they're truly devoted to you? On TV crews, there are many cases of couples dating for a short time and then breaking up. Have you ever heard of a crew couple?"
Aunt Qi thought He Jingxian was ridiculous. She divorced Qi Shixin for such a man. When He Jingxian was going to pursue her career, Qi Shixin was the one who took care of the children at home. He Jingxian was still not satisfied.
"I..." He Jingxian didn't really think too much about it. She thought the man was sincere to her at the time. Even though they had only known each other for a few days, He Jingxian felt that they had met too late and she wanted to go abroad with him.
In fact, He Jingxian didn't love the man that much. She just wanted him to take her abroad. The man also said that she could have great development abroad. He Jingxian believed what the man said. She was willing to go abroad. She really wanted to go abroad.
"After this lesson, you should be more quiet in the future." Aunt Qi said, "If you want to act in a TV series, go find the crew yourself. Take care of those things yourself. I'm not your aunt anymore, so don't look for me."
Second Aunt Qi didn't want to care about He Jingxian's affairs anymore. He Jingxian was a person who always wanted to climb up the social ladder.
Does He Jingxian think she is very capable?
No, He Jingxian is not as powerful as she thinks.
Whether in the past or now, He Jingxian is just an ordinary person.
He Jingxian thought she was scheming against others, but she didn't know that others didn't care about her at all.
When Aunt Qi Er was talking to He Jingxian, the office door was not closed tightly, and someone passing by heard what was said. That person then told others, and everyone was shocked. They had never thought that He Jingxian wanted to divorce for another man. It was really surprising that He Jingxian was with another man just to go abroad.
When Zhou Yiran heard the news, she was also a little confused. No way, He Jingxian divorced him just to go abroad with another man?
Zhou Yiran had to tell Jiang Moli about such a big thing. She really couldn't help it and had to tell her.
When Jiang Moli was about to eat in the company cafeteria, she saw Zhou Yiran.
"Moli, here, here." Zhou Yiran waved at Jiang Moli, "Here, sit here."
Jiang Moli carried the meal tray to Zhou Yiran's side and asked, "Don't you have to go to work today?"
"Yes, I have some great news, and I couldn't help but tell you." Zhou Yiran said, "He Jingxian is back again."
"Didn't she originally stay at your company?" Jiang Moli asked, "She didn't complete the resignation procedures."
"Yes, she didn't complete the resignation procedures. I guess she just thought that if anything happened, she could still come back to our company." Zhou Yiran said, "Do you know why she came back?"
"Why?" Jiang Moli asked.
"She was originally going to go abroad with a man she met on a TV set. After her divorce, she went to find him, but he didn't want her anymore and didn't take her abroad," Zhou Yiran said. "She had no choice but to come back dejected. She and her ex-husband were already divorced, so she naturally couldn't go back there. Since she didn't go abroad, she had to stay at our company, so she couldn't just stay away forever."
"You know it very well." Jiang Moli said.
"He Jingxian spoke to her aunt, no, her ex-husband's aunt, in the office. The office door wasn't locked tightly, and I don't know if her ex-husband's aunt left it unlocked on purpose," Zhou Yiran said. "Now many people know about this. She even gave up her own daughter to go abroad, and now she has to stay in China."
Zhou Yiran sighed. If it were her, she would definitely not have the face to stay in the company. But if she didn't stay in the company, where else could she go?
He Jingxian and Qi Shixin still had Nancheng household registration and could continue to stay there. If He Jingxian returned to her hometown, to her original local theater troupe, the treatment would definitely not be as good as in Nancheng. He Jingxian had managed to stay in Nancheng in the first place, and she couldn't leave now.
"I don't know if she regrets it. If she hadn't divorced, she could still live with her ex-husband and the children." Zhou Yiran said, "Her ex-husband is raising three children alone. I don't know if he will remarry soon. If he remarries, there will be one more person at home to take care of the children, and her ex-husband will have a easier time. With a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. I'm worried that the children will have a hard time."
"Don't worry about them." Jiang Moli said, "They wanted a son, so they let He Jingxian give birth to three children."
He Jingxian has problems, and so do the other members of the Qi family. If the Qi family had not forced He Jingxian to have three children, but only one, perhaps He Jingxian would have achieved a higher level of development in opera, and He Jingxian would not have thought about going abroad with other men.
"Indeed." Zhou Yiran nodded, "They all have some problems."
"Divorced or not, He Jingxian has to keep living," Jiang Moli said. "It's just that she's divorced, so I'm afraid her ex-husband's aunt won't be able to help her as much. But she's already filmed two TV series, so she has some experience, so it will be easier for her to find a TV crew later."
Jiang Moli thought that He Jingxian still had a way out, not that there was no way out. He Jingxian was right not to complete the resignation procedures early. If He Jingxian had completed the resignation procedures, it would be difficult for her to come back now. Even if He Jingxian forced the Qi family to help her, the Qi family would refuse her.
As long as He Jingxian didn't go through the resignation procedures herself, everything would be fine. After all, He Jingxian was the biological mother of Qi Shixin's three children, and the Qi family would not force He Jingxian to leave the Nancheng Drama Troupe.
"She doesn't have much to lose, actually," Zhou Yiran said. "The Qi family might not be that useful to her anymore. If she lives on her own, she won't have to worry about the children. She can live in the company dormitory or rent a house. She has her own salary, so she can still live a good life."
"Well, she has a household registration in Nancheng." Jiang Moli said. She still remembered that He Jingxian said that she relied on the household registration in Nancheng for Moli.
Yes, Jiang Moli did rely on her Nancheng hukou to join the Nancheng Drama Troupe earlier and faster, and to go to the provincial Xiaobaihua upon graduation. The hukou was partly responsible, and another part was Jiang Moli's own efforts.
"She always wanted a household registration in Nancheng, and now she's finally got what she wanted," Zhou Yiran said. "I wonder if she still thinks about her three children and whether she'll go visit them."
"I don't know." Jiang Moli said. Anyway, she was worried about her child.
"My mom told me not to talk about it," Zhou Yiran said. "He Jingxian is like this now... because she told me not to be like that with her. I won't be like that with her. I'm not stupid. Even if someone really takes me abroad, I won't go."
"It's right not to go. You've only known them for a few days, and you don't know what they're like." Jiang Moli said, "Don't trust people you've only known for a few days. They might trick you out and sell you out. Anything can happen."
In her previous life, Jiang Moli saw on the news that an actor had been tricked into going abroad to commit fraud. The incident caused a huge uproar, becoming a trending topic, and the country even dispatched personnel to rescue the person. Some people were deceived and the perpetrators demanded a ransom from their family, and sometimes, even after paying the ransom, the person still wasn't guaranteed to return.
He Jingxian is still a little naive and thinks others are really good to her.
"There's no one as good as you abroad, and I'm not stupid." Zhou Yiran said, "I can divorce my husband, but I can't live without you as a friend."
"Uh." Jiang Moli smiled.
"What I said is true." Zhou Yiran said, "You are much more reliable than my man, really."
Zhou Yiran would rather believe Jiang Moli than her man. It's not that her man is bad, but Jiang Moli is too good.
He Jingxian hadn't even considered visiting the three children. They were the stumbling blocks on her road to success. It was because of those three children that she had missed so many opportunities. He Jingxian didn't want to see them any more. Even if she had to stay in South City, she didn't want to see them.
When Qi Shixin learned that He Jingxian divorced him because she wanted to go abroad with another man, Qi Shixin was not surprised. He Jingxian was abandoned and failed to go abroad. Qi Shixin did not intend to look for He Jingxian, and it was impossible for him to divorce He Jingxian.
This time, He Jingxian divorced Qi Shixin in order to go abroad, and another day, He Jingxian could divorce Qi Shixin again for other things. It would be better to break up cleanly this time. Divorce is divorce, and don't think about remarriage. Remarriage is too meaningless.
He Jingxian did not ask for a divorce from Qi Shixin. She was a person who cared about her reputation and did not want to be laughed at by the Qi family.
Many people in the company already knew about He Jingxian's situation, and she knew that Aunt Qi had done it on purpose. He Jingxian had to stay in the company. She believed that she divorced first and then went abroad with another man, not first went abroad and then divorced. When she made the decision, she also called Qi Shixin, so it didn't count as betrayal.
The Qi family loves sons so much, and He Jingxian only gave birth to a daughter. He Jingxian feels that she is giving Qi Shixin the opportunity to have a son, and she is really good to Qi Shixin.
He Jingxian rented a house, and she would live there alone in the future. She could eat in the company cafeteria, and she didn't need others to cook for her! But when He Jingxian saw the empty house, she still thought of her and Qi Shixin's residence. That room was indeed a little more cozy.
The next moment, He Jingxian shook her head again, telling herself not to think about the past anymore. Those things were already in the past. She and Qi Shixin were not husband and wife, and she couldn't expect Qi Shixin to treat her well. If Qi Shixin really liked her, he would have begged her not to divorce him long ago, instead of agreeing immediately when she asked for a divorce.
"Now is the best." He Jingxian said to herself. She didn't need to be with Qi Shixin, and she didn't need Qi Shixin to cook for her. She could buy her own meals and had no shortage of food.
In the evening, when Jiang Moli was taking a walk with Sheng Jiahao, Jiang Moli talked about He Jingxian, and she also felt it was a bit ridiculous.
"He Jingxian trusted a man she met on the set in just a few days," Jiang Moli said. "She believed he could really take her abroad. How could she still be so naive at her age?"
"Maybe she wants to give it a try. If it's true, she will have successfully gone abroad." Sheng Jiahao said.
"Just go abroad?" Jiang Moli asked, "Does she know foreign languages? Can she survive abroad? She's an opera singer. What kind of job can she find abroad?"
There were opera troupes that returned home after performing abroad. Not everyone had a smooth life abroad. Unfamiliar with the place and unable to speak the language, they encountered many problems in life, which they had to solve on their own.
Jiang Moli had no intention of living abroad, at most she wanted to travel. Jiang Moli loved her motherland very much and wanted to develop in her motherland. Jiang Moli also had some understanding of her own abilities. She did know foreign languages and had communicated with foreigners in her previous life.
But Jiang Moli didn't want to do those things in this life. She wanted to stay in China and do what she loved. Working in a private company, making plans, communicating with customers... Jiang Moli had experienced that kind of life in her previous life, and she wanted to experience a different life in this life.
"I think she was just being impulsive, thinking that if she went abroad with someone, she would be able to develop well." Jiang Moli said, "Even if someone took her abroad, could she stay there for a long time? If the formalities are not completed, she will be an illegal immigrant abroad."
Jiang Moli thought that He Jingxian was just too strong-willed. She wanted to do better than Jiang Moli, so she was desperate to try all kinds of methods. Maybe He Jingxian thought that if she could do well abroad, she would be better than Jiang Moli.
"Not being able to leave may not be a bad thing." Jiang Moli said.
"She's a scheming person," Sheng Jiahao said. He still didn't have a good impression of He Jingxian. "Stay away from her."
"I only found out about these things after Yaran told me." Jiang Moli said, "If Yaran hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about these things."
Qi's mother was at Qi Shixin's house. She asked Qi Shixin, "What are your plans? Remarry her or find another one?"
