Chapter 125
During the meeting, Kuang Yumin kept staring at her.
She was completely different from the ghost she had been in the past few days. She glanced at him, and he panicked and stopped looking at her.
Later, she noticed him staring at the twisted wire bracelet on her hand again. He was now like Huang Lei, only seeing her wearing gold and silver and thinking what she was like.
When he heard her say that Lao Yi wanted her to move into that apartment, he opened his mouth slightly, stunned for a moment, as if he didn't quite believe it.
Wang Jiazhi thought, aren't they just waiting for that day? Then they can kill him at home.
Seeing that Kuang Yumin didn't look happy, he actually looked a little indignant.
He felt that Meng Shunying was so good but she died, but she didn't die?
In the afternoon, I went back to Mrs. Liang's dinner party. As soon as I entered, I met Mrs. Liao and her eldest daughter coming out, so I called them to join me.
Wang Jiazhi was the youngest among the group of ladies, so she asked Mrs. Liao's daughter to sit next to her.
Mrs. Liao's daughter is twenty years old this year. Although Wang Jiazhi is only three years older than her, once they got married, it was as if they were in two different worlds, separated by a glass cover.
The two of them were not very good at talking at first, but Mrs. Liao's daughter smiled and said, "This bracelet is so beautiful."
Wang Jiazhi raised her hand to show her, saying, "Ding-Ding-Dang is quite interesting."
Then he took it off and asked her to try it on.
"Do you like reading Liang Ying's novels?"
Wang Jiazhi nodded and said, "I like it very much."
"I like her too. But they say she only likes men who are at least 20 years older than her, which is not good."
Wang Jiazhi smiled helplessly.
If you like someone's work, you can't just like her stuff. She also has to conform to your ideal to be considered perfect.
"People say she has an Oedipus complex, that's why. Her father treats her badly."
Wang Jiazhi said, "I don't think so. From what she wrote, I can tell she has no emotional hope for her father. I think she's too experienced and too mature for her age. It's hard for people of the same age to have common topics."
"You're right. It makes sense when you think about it this way."
She pulled Wang Jiazhi's hand, and the two of them went out on the pretext of something.
They sat down on the sofa in the hall, and Mrs. Liang's daughter said, "You also hate dealing with them, don't you?"
Wang Jiazhi smiled and said, "There's nothing we can do about it."
"I wonder if I'll end up like them one day. It scares me."
"How could that be?"
"Did you get married because of your parents' wishes or because you like it?"
"Mom is gone. It was my dad's idea."
"I think I'm the same." She took off her diamond earrings. Her mother had brought her to a blind date today, and she had deliberately dressed up in jewels. Mrs. Liao didn't tell anyone.
She continued, "My name is Xiaofen. Later, my mother said, 'Fenfang Fenfang, I should have called her Xiaofang.' Then she gave birth to another sister. My father never cared about the family, and my mother only had eyes for my brother."
Wang Jiazhi said, "My father only has my younger brother. My mother is good to me, but..."
Xiaofen said, "But it was an accident. Your husband must love you very much."
Wang Jiazhi asked in surprise, "How do you say that?"
"Look at you, you're pretty much the same as me. I have a friend who got married last year, and when I saw her again a few months later, she was completely different."
Wang Jiazhi smiled and said, "These are not certainties. If the person you marry is good, it won't be like that."
Xiaofen said, "Marriage is a gamble, and it's really hard to win. It's also because there are so many bad people around me, like my parents. But with a family like ours, I can't stay married."
If it weren't for Xiaofen's melancholy expression, Wang Jiazhi would have thought that being unfortunate in a marriage of wealth and glory was better than being unfortunate in a marriage of poverty. A daughter from a wealthy family was better than a daughter from a poor family.
Thinking about it now, sharing a bed with a disgusting person, engaging in long-term sexual intercourse to survive another form of sexual intercourse, and then having a bunch of children, Wang Jiazhi shook her head. What a terrible ghost story.
After that, Xiaofen actually called Yi's house and asked her out for a chat and coffee. Wang Jiazhi couldn't refuse, but it was also strange. A girl like her would have a lot of friends, so why did they insist on asking her to go?
The conversation was nothing special, just gossip about a few acquaintances. Their common circle of friends was the wives of officials at the table.
"You know what? They are all jealous of Mrs. Liang. Now that something like this has happened to her daughter, they are all relieved."
Wang Jiazhi smiled and said, "How could this happen?"
Later he went out once more, and although he just made small talk, there was no news from him after that.
She thought it was Xiaofen's way of getting back at her mother. Although she didn't say it directly, she could sense from their conversation that Xiaofen must know something. Mrs. Liao certainly wouldn't want her daughter to know about her and Lao Yi, but she certainly had told her about her own affairs.
Xiaofen probably didn't think anything was going on between them, but her mother was usually indignant and felt that someone like her was unworthy of being Lao Yi's lover. So Xiaofen deliberately associated with people her mother disliked.
