“It doesn’t look fake,” Luo Minhong said hesitantly. “Judging from how satisfied she is with her mother-in-law, she might really be very happy with this marriage.”
I think so too.
“But I feel sorry for her,” another person whispered. “She comes from such a good family, is so beautiful, and has such a gentle nature. She could have easily married a military officer…”
Zhou Yue had no idea what Lin Shuxian and the others were guessing.
She suppressed her emotions and went to find Supervisor Tang to sign the attendance sheet. Only when they were alone did she dare to let her tears flow.
It turns out that her marriage to Zheng Fangshu wasn't because she was stupid or unlucky, but because she was set up from the very beginning!
The person who set up the scheme was none other than Lin Shuxian, whom she considered a close friend!
A false friendship and a disastrous marriage, like two mountains, squeezed Zhou Yue so much that she could hardly breathe.
Zhou Yue didn't know how she got through the day; it felt like she was in a dream, and everyone around her seemed unreal.
As the evening bell rang, her colleagues called out to her, "Zhou Yue, pack your things and go home. Hurry up, I'm locking the door!"
Zhou Yue followed her colleagues, mechanically walking out.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard a soft, familiar voice: "Mom!"
Zhou Yue was startled and looked up to see Liang Guiying, whose daughter Zhou Xiaonian was in Liang Guiying's arms with her arms outstretched, calling out, "Mommy! Mommy!"
Holding her daughter, Zhou Yue felt as if she had been redeemed.
Love is fake, friendship is fake, but my daughter is real.
Liang Guiying noticed Zhou Yue's unusual behavior at a glance, but there were too many people around, so she didn't ask. She simply said, "Get in the car, let's go home for dinner."
Not far away, Lin Shuxian and Luo Minhong watched as Zhou Yue carried her daughter onto Liang Guiying's tricycle, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
At lunchtime, Zhou Yue chatted and laughed with her as usual, but Lin Shuxian herself, feeling guilty, didn't dare to look Zhou Yue in the eye, and was also a little worried that Zhou Yue would come back to her senses and settle scores with her.
Now it seems—
“Zhou Yue should be very satisfied with her marriage and current situation,” Lin Shuxian said. “I’m overthinking it.”
Luo Minhong wholeheartedly agreed: "I heard that Director Ye and Yang Lan from the union were fired on the spot by the factory just for scolding Zhou Yue. This shows that if Zhou Yue really wanted to settle accounts with you, she would definitely have made a scene right then and there. Zhou Yue is simple-minded and easy to fool. If she didn't settle accounts then, she definitely won't settle accounts in the future."
"Yes, she's quite naive." Lin Shuxian felt relieved. "Let's go eat."
Liang Guiying and her family of three quickly returned to the airport living area.
Zhou Yue noticed something was wrong as soon as she got out of the car.
Several canna lilies and sunflowers were replanted in the flower beds on both sides of the entrance. The flower beds were damp, and it was clear that they had just been watered.
Zhou Xiaonian, nestled in Zhou Yue's arms, looked excited and pointed at the sunflowers, saying, "Niannian and Grandma planted them together!"
She twisted her body, urging Zhou Yue to quickly carry her home: "Flowers! Mommy, look!"
A long flower stand has been added under the front yard wall, and it is full of flowers.
The little girl twisted her body again, wanting Zhou Yue to carry her upstairs.
Once inside the master bedroom, the little one got out of bed and led Zhou Yue to the small balcony: "Pretty flowers!"
The clutter on the small terrace had been removed, and a small flower stand had been installed. Several potted plants were displayed on the stand, including sunflowers, tulips, camellias, and two other flowers that she couldn't name right away. They were red, yellow, and pink, a riot of color, very beautiful and vibrant.
Zhou Xiaonian asked, "Mom, do you like it?"
Zhou Yue's eyes welled up with tears: "I like it, Mom likes it very much."
