Chapter 524: War between Women
After reading the news, Xie's father, who was having a midnight snack, also frowned.
"What's wrong, husband?" Mrs. Xie pretended to be innocent.
"The news came out so quickly..." After saying that, Xie Huaiyu deliberately looked at his wife opposite him.
I handed her the phone and let her look at it.
After reading it, Mrs. Xie was very frightened.
"Honey, I didn't do it."
"It really wasn't me, do you believe me?" Mrs. Xie asked nervously.
"It's just that I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that we just happened to come out for dinner."
"There just happened to be a reporter filming it."
"People like me who have retired to the second line haven't been in the news for many years." Xie Huaiyu was indeed unhappy.
Because the following is too obvious.
"Only my son knows that we went out for a midnight snack. Oh, and Hanhan knows too."
"Hanhan just sent me a WeChat message and I said something."
"People in Nancheng also asked me about the birthday party. I also mentioned it on WeChat. Here is the chat record..." Mrs. Xie took the initiative to raise her mobile phone to show her husband.
But, how could Xie Huaiyu really check? If he really did, wouldn’t that be very disrespectful to his wife?
So, he waved his hand and said, "Never mind, it's not a big news. Eat and go back early after eating."
"Yeah." Mrs. Xie felt relieved and continued to eat her midnight snack with her head down.
But although Mr. Xie said this, he didn't completely believe it.
I secretly asked my own people to check the relationship behind the news media that reported this.
"husband."
"Um?"
"Do you have anything to do tomorrow?"
"What are your plans?" Xie Huaiyu took the initiative when he saw his wife asking this.
"I just figured it out. A family should live in harmony. Although Xie Huailan is bad, you're right. The disaster shouldn't affect the whole family. I saw Guangyao was on summer vacation and was supposed to take extra classes, but his unreliable father only cared about his mistress and illegitimate child. It was you who was kind enough to bring him to the old house."
"I thought we'd take Guangyao to the cram school tomorrow since we have nothing to do."
"What do you think?"
"Mom is old, it's not good to disturb her with such things."
"The Nancheng Company is very busy, and his daughter-in-law...can't be relied upon." Mrs. Xie deliberately ignored her daughter-in-law.
"This..." Xie Huaiyu promised to accompany Qiao Kelan to the art exhibition tomorrow.
But what his wife said made sense. It was he who suggested bringing Guangyao here, so he couldn't just ignore him.
Seeing her husband's embarrassment, Mrs. Xie pretended to be magnanimous and said, "It's okay, honey. In fact, I'm very happy that you accompany me for supper tonight."
"I know you're busy too, just go and do your thing."
"I'll take Guangyao to his cram school by myself. I have a driver, Pinggu, and Sister Qiu at home."
"But we are definitely not as good as you in choosing. You are a person with good vision."
"But Guangyao is still young, so he should be able to pick someone who is similar."
Mrs. Xie was very generous and spoke gently about family matters.
Every word she said was for Xie Guangyao, and she also praised her husband for his good vision and ability.
As the saying goes, everyone likes to be respected and praised.
Xie Huaiyu is not a god, he also likes to hear nice words and likes emotional value.
So when the words of refusal were on the tip of my tongue, I changed my words.
"I do have something to do tomorrow. How about this? Let's go out early and try to finish Guangyao's work as soon as possible. I'll go and do my own thing."
"Okay, I'll do as you say, husband."
Mrs. Xie changed her usual behavior and became extremely gentle.
However, this did not make Xie Huaiyu suspicious, after all, his wife did have the same personality before.
Compared with other wives of wealthy families, she is not mean or cunning.
If the conflict with her daughter-in-law had not escalated and turned ugly, there would actually be nothing wrong with Mrs. Xie.
Everyone in the Xie family approves of it.
After the mission was a success, Mrs. Xie returned home, although she and her husband still slept in separate rooms.
But I have become much more confident.
She kept praising Zhou Han, saying that it was because she was good at doing things.
Zhou Han actually didn't want to hear compliments. These were just empty words and meaningless.
But I still have to accompany Mrs. Xie to act.
As for Mr. Xie, when he came back, it was already past midnight. After he came out of the shower, his cell phone was still ringing.
Xie Huaiyu: Hello?
Qiao Kelan: Is it convenient to talk? Huaiyu?
Xie Huaiyu: Convenient.
Qiao Kelan: I called you a few times but you didn’t answer. I thought something happened to you.
Xie Huaiyu: It’s okay.
Qiao Kelan: Huaiyu, I saw the news... Actually, I know I have no right to be jealous or angry. Your wife is indeed a very good person.
Xie Huaiyu: My wife has contributed a lot to our family over the years. She rarely asks anything of me. Today, she asked for a midnight snack, and I couldn't refuse.
Qiao Kelan: Huaiyu, have you changed your mind and don't want to file for divorce? It's okay if you don't want to. I always respect your opinion, and I don't want to force you, do you understand?
Xie Huaiyu: What are you talking about? It’s really not convenient for me to bring it up today. Let’s find a chance later. I’ve already told Nancheng that I won’t regret it. Don’t think too much about it.
Qiao Kelan: Yeah, okay, see you tomorrow.
Xie Huaiyu: I think I’ll be a little late tomorrow.
Qiao Kelan: Is there any change? (There is obvious displeasure in his voice)
Xie Huaiyu: Well, I need to help Guangyao find a summer tutoring class. It was my suggestion to bring this child back home, and I can’t just ignore him. My mother is old and it’s not suitable for her to worry about these trivial matters.
Qiao Kelan: Is this what you mean, or what your wife means?
As a woman herself, I understand these thoughts too well.
Using children as an excuse is just a means to win favor.
But Mr. Xie is a male chauvinist, and when asked this question, he finds it difficult to admit that it was his wife's idea.
Xie Huaiyu: That’s what I meant. Guangyao was originally brought back by me.
Qiao Kelan: Indeed, your nephew’s matter is more important, otherwise why don’t we not go to the art exhibition?
Xie Huaiyu: I have promised you, so I will definitely go, but a little later.
Qiao Kelan: But...
Xie Huaiyu: Kelan, I’m a little tired today. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.
Qiao Kelan: Okay, see you tomorrow.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Kelan's face looked very ugly.
Inwardly, he cursed Xie Huaiyu, the old man, for being dishonest.
But at the same time, he also knew that his wife seemed to have known about their affair, otherwise the news would not have come out tonight.
Very good, in terms of means, she really doesn't accept the arrogant Mrs. Xie.
Then let's have a fight and let her taste the feeling of failure.
Tianyi Pavilion
Tu Ran has a very regular schedule and goes to bed early at 10:30.
Xie Nancheng lay with her for a while, but couldn't fall asleep.
I got up and went to the living room to smoke.
Xu Xin also reported to him what happened tonight.
Xie Nancheng curled his lips, "Heh, dog bites dog is quite interesting."
"Indeed, this Zhou Han is no ordinary person. He has his own way of dealing with that woman."
"But the chairman did take his wife out for a late-night snack tonight, and they seem to be getting along quite well."
"Hasn't Old Lu replied yet?" Xie Nancheng changed the subject.
