Chapter 157 I have a clear conscience
The word "ex-husband" was bitten very hard.
It tastes kind of sarcastic.
Shen Qingqing raised her eyes and saw Zhou Hansheng's mother.
The other person was wearing a plain long dress, her hair was neatly tied behind her head, her eyes were indifferent, and she looked very difficult to get along with.
Shen Qingqing smiled and said to Jiang's mother, "You and Brother Zhixun eat first. Aunt Zhou and I will go outside to talk for a few minutes."
Zhou's mother was not satisfied with her arrangement, but she did not show it on her face and just smiled faintly.
"This is your family too, is there anything you need to say to them without telling them?"
Jiang Zhixun frowned.
He didn't expect Zhou Hansheng's family to have this attitude towards Qingqing.
I thought everyone in the Zhou family had the same temper as Zhou Hansheng.
A fire welled up in my heart.
He was afraid of embarrassing Shen Qingqing, so he didn't show it.
Jiang Zhixun stood up, stretched out his long arm, moved a chair from the side and placed it in the main seat.
Then he called the waiter and asked him to put the menu in front of Zhou's mother, "A restaurant is a place to eat. Do you want to add a few more dishes?"
His attitude completely showed that he regarded himself as Shen Qingqing's relative.
Zhou's mother was very angry.
But as an intellectual, she couldn't lose her temper in public.
He ignored Jiang Zhixun and looked at Shen Qingqing.
"Aren't you going to talk outside? Why aren't you leaving yet?"
The rhetorical tone conveys an impatient attitude.
Jiang Zhixun pouted his cheek. Shen Qingqing had never suffered such grievances since she came to the compound at the age of fifteen!
"You also said that we are Qingqing's family. No matter what you want to say, there is no need to avoid us."
Jiang Zhixun curled his lips and said, "Don't worry, we Jiang family members are the best at keeping secrets. We won't gossip about others. You can speak boldly to Qingqing about anything you want to say."
Pulling the chair a little further away, he said, "Please sit down."
When someone interrupted Zhou's mother with her own words, her expression almost went out of control.
His eyes shuttled between Jiang Zhixun and Shen Qingqing.
The gay man protects Shen Qingqing so much and says that they are completely done with each other, but no one would believe it!
She had never agreed with her son pursuing Shen Qingqing before.
He just wouldn't listen!
Now it’s a mess again!
Jiang's mother cheered for her son in her heart. This kid knew how to protect Qingqing and was not yet hopeless.
With a smile on her face, she said, "You are Dr. Zhou's mother? No wonder Dr. Zhou is so handsome, it turns out he inherited it from you."
Jiang Zhixun was unhappy.
Why are you still praising last week’s Han Sheng?
Mother Jiang asked Mother Zhou to sit down and asked, "Are you here to eat too?"
The other party's attitude was too good, and Zhou's mother didn't want to be embarrassed, so she could only restrain the urge to scold Shen Qingqing.
He hummed, "Han Sheng suddenly returned home, and there was no food prepared at home, so I came out to bring him some cooked food."
While speaking, Zhou's mother's eyes fell on Shen Qingqing's face. Seeing that her expression did not change, she knew that her son had met her.
Zhou's mother had no idea what happened between Shen Qingqing and her son during this period.
But judging from his son's condition, they had an unhappy argument.
Shen Qingqing suddenly ran back to Beijing, and her son chased her back from afar.
Such a big thing already made Zhou's mother unhappy.
When she went out, she saw Shen Qingqing having dinner with her ex-husband's family. How could she bear it?
"Dr. Zhou has returned to China?" Jiang's mother asked.
"Yeah, I came back today."
Jiang's mother was in a worried mood. Didn't Qingqing say that he wouldn't be coming back?
And she said she won't get married...
The two of them are in different countries, so they must have broken up by default.
How come he's back in the blink of an eye?
Jiang's mother's good mood gradually faded. If this is true, can Qingqing and Zhixun get back together?
Zhou's mother had a lot to say to Shen Qingqing, but the Jiang family was here, so some things couldn't be said openly.
Seeing Jiang Zhixun's fierce look, she knew that once she opened her mouth and said something bad about Shen Qingqing, this man would definitely not give her any face.
There was a flash of mockery in Zhou's mother's eyes.
I’ve said it before, you can’t marry a divorced woman!
Before he had even sat for a minute, he stood up with a calm expression and said, "I won't disturb you while you're eating. Come to my house tomorrow. I have something to tell you."
Shen Qingqing used to listen to Jiang's mother because the Jiang family raised her.
But for Zhou's mother, as long as the etiquette is acceptable, she will not force herself to do anything else.
"There's a meeting at school tomorrow, so I'm afraid I can't spare the time."
"School?"
Shen Qingqing looked calm, "Well, I found a job as a teacher at Peking University."
Zhou's mother was stunned for a moment. No one had told her about this matter. If she hadn't met Shen Qingqing, she would still be kept in the dark!
Being a teacher at Peking University is certainly a good job. If Shen Qingqing was not her family's "future daughter-in-law", Zhou's mother would admire her very much.
But now, things are different.
When she looked at Shen Qingqing, she couldn't just look at her strengths.
We should look at her shortcomings even more!
After all, when a family lives together, the bottom line plays a crucial role!
"Aren't you going back to England with Han Sheng?"
"Well, no reply."
Jiang Zhixun's eyes moved slightly and his fingers curled up.
Said to Shen Qingqing: "I'm going to buy a few bottles of soda. You're busy with work and may not be able to spare the time in the future. You can ask the elders to summon you at any time. It's better to make it clear all at once."
The word "summon" is full of irony.
Mother Zhou's face flushed.
He secretly cursed Jiang Zhixun for being rude. If it were Han Sheng, he would not speak to his elders like that.
Jiang Zhixun is gone.
They also took Jiang's mother away.
Promised to be back in ten minutes.
Without the third person present, Zhou's mother spoke without restraint.
The polite smile disappeared, his expression turned cold, and he looked even more mean.
"If you don't go back to England, what will happen to Han Sheng? You want to leave him alone in a foreign country? He is so busy with work, who will take care of him?"
Shen Qingqing sat in her original position, slightly tilting her body and looking at Zhou's mother.
"First, Mr. Zhou and I have broken up."
"Second, I am not his appendage. I don't have to go wherever he goes."
"Third, Mr. Zhou is an adult. He can take care of himself even without me. I am not his babysitter."
Shen Qingqing spoke word by word, and the more Zhou's mother listened, the colder her expression became.
He reminded her, "Han Sheng went abroad for you. Isn't it too cold-blooded for you to distance yourself from him now?"
Shen Qingqing thought so before, so she always felt that she owed Zhou Hansheng.
When it comes to relationships, she puts herself in a low position.
Shen Qingqing: "He went to the UK for further studies, and the professional knowledge he learned and the broadened horizons he gained were all his gains. He didn't let me waste his time or his career, but instead he went a step further than people at the same level."
"Auntie, I think you should thank me."
Zhou's mother looked incredulous, "Are you crazy?"
If he wasn't crazy, how could he say such nonsense?
Shen Qingqing held the teacup in her slender fingers and played with it unconsciously.
"A good partner can help people grow. I think I have done this. I have not held Zhou Hansheng back. I can have a clear conscience."
"He went abroad because of you!"
