"If I were really that bad, why would you, Zhang Hongxue, have fallen for me?"
"You've admitted you're a piece of trash, and only I'm good enough for you, right?"
When the couple argued, the resentment they had accumulated over the years gradually came out.
Sun Tong recalled that his job was given to him by Zhang Hongxue, and every time he accompanied her back to her parents' home, he was subjected to all sorts of sarcastic remarks from Zhang's family.
Zhang Hongxue recalled her husband's neglect of her over the past two years. Her mother-in-law was nice to her on the surface, but she would always prevent her from doing certain things under the guise of "doing it for her own good" and prevent her from getting close to her children.
The couple harbored too much resentment, and when they argued, they would say things they didn't mean.
Ignoring the cold wind, everyone listened to the gossip outside the Sun family's house, and couldn't help but discuss how the Sun family's model family had fallen apart.
"I knew He Caiying wasn't as good as the rumors said, right? You guys all said she was the best mother-in-law?"
"Come on, if you like He Caiying, then go and be her daughter-in-law."
“Besides Sun Tong, doesn’t He Caiying have other sons? Why don’t you go and marry one of He Caiying’s other sons and become her daughters-in-law?”
Several mothers-in-law, especially those whose daughters-in-law said they were not as good as He Caiying, immediately vented their resentment.
Chen Suwen also joined in the fun, and looking at Xu Huixue, Li Yulan, and Shen Wenxiu, who had also come to watch the commotion at some point, she said, "So? You all like Atong's mother, this good mother-in-law, right? Why don't you recognize her as your mother-in-law too?"
Xu Huixue and her two sisters-in-law quickly shook their heads. Although they complained that Chen Suwen was a wicked mother-in-law, they never thought of changing their own husbands.
"Ah Tong's mom, aren't you the best mother-in-law on Guangming Road? How can you watch your daughter-in-law being bullied by your son and not stand up for her by beating your son up?"
"That's right, Tong's mom! Look how badly your daughter-in-law has been bullied! How can you, as a good mother-in-law, just stand by and watch her get bullied?"
"A-Tong's mom, look at A-Tong's wife! She's been bullied to tears. Why aren't you speaking up for your daughter-in-law?"
"Ah Tong's mom, Ah Tong has really gone too far. You should give him a good beating."
"If you don't give Atong a good beating, you'll be letting down your reputation as a good mother-in-law, Atong's mom."
Those who loved watching the drama would call out to He Caiying loudly, raising their voices to make sure she could hear them even inside the house.
"What's it to you?!"
Hearing these people's provocative words, Sun Tong, out of concern for her mother, opened the door, rushed out, and yelled at the instigators.
"Hey, we're all doing this for your own good, Ah Tong. How can you be so ungrateful?" Chen Suwen raised an eyebrow, accusing Sun Tong of not appreciating their kindness.
"Harmony in the family brings prosperity in everything; how can you two quarrel?"
"Isn't it a good thing that Qiang's mom is going to work? How can you say she's been corrupted by outsiders?"
"Ah Tong, you should be grateful. Your job was given to you by your wife, and now that she wants to go out to work, you're actually scolding her?"
"So all your reputation as a good man and husband over the years was just a lie?"
With Chen Suwen taking the lead, the others also spoke up, saying that Sun Tong was a hypocrite and that all he did was bully his wife.
Sun Tong was furious. Feeling condemned by everyone, he glared angrily at Chen Suwen, who had spoken first, only to see Qin Feng standing behind her.
Of course he recognized him as Qin Feng.
Yesterday, he went to see his cousin after get off work, hoping to reconnect with her and ask about her future plans.
Surprisingly, they discovered that Qin Feng and Bai Huirou were together. The way he looked at Bai Huirou and his expression were all too familiar. Sun Tong couldn't possibly not know what kind of feelings those were.
Immediately and unilaterally treat Qin Feng as a love rival—
Even if he is not qualified at all.
After all, he's a married man; how could he be a rival for someone's affections when he's single?
It's not like he's after his wife.
How did you get here?
Sun Tong immediately forgot that he was arguing with his wife and that the people around him were criticizing him for treating his wife badly. All his anger was directed at Qin Feng.
"Did you come here to see me? Did you come here to tell me that you're the best choice for my cousin?"
"Let me tell you, there's absolutely no way my cousin will be with you! Forget about it!"
Perhaps it was inferiority, or perhaps it was male arrogance, but at this moment, Sun Tong only wanted to sever the relationship between Bai Huirou and Qin Feng.
Even if he couldn't have Bai Huirou, he didn't want this man to be with Bai Huirou.
My cousin was forced by her family to marry a man she didn't love last time, and now he can't let her marry someone she doesn't love again.
My cousin loves him the most.
He wronged his cousin and married someone else.
But he can change now.
Anyway, Zhang Hongxue has changed. He doesn't want this kind of woman anymore. He will divorce her and get back together with his cousin.
However, Qin Feng had no idea about Sun Tong's thoughts. He just looked at him blankly and asked, "Are you talking to me?"
He didn't remember knowing this man at all; it was his first time on Guangming Road, too.
This stranger, with his exceptional memory, could not possibly forget that he knew the other person.
"What nonsense are you spouting? What kind of relationship could I possibly have with your cousin?" Qin Feng frowned, his previously gentle smile instantly turning icy.
"Um, his cousin should be a woman named Bai Huirou," Chen Suwen reminded him, lest he actually say that he had no relationship with Bai Huirou and that there was no possibility between them in order to distance himself from the relationship.
