Chapter 64: Self-abandonment

The mistress, who was originally clinging to the scumbag and acting coquettishly, was stunned for a moment by the shocked gazes of the crowd.

The scumbag was also stunned.

Because Xiao San suddenly thought that her mother seemed to be looking for someone for all these years.

Although the mother tried to conceal the truth on purpose, it was impossible for her to keep the secret from her daughter all the time, and there would always be a moment when she would reveal some information.

Over the years, Xiao San gradually learned about the person her mother was looking for. The other person was a man, a few years older than her mother. She also saw a photo of her mother and the other person when they were young from her mother.

Over the years, when she found out about this, she had struggled with whether or not to tell her father, but in the end she chose to keep it secret.

Maybe my father actually got a glimpse of something, but he didn't say it out loud because he didn't want to disturb the peace of this family.

At this moment, the mistress was looking at the bald, big-bellied scumbag in front of her. She must be with him for his money. She didn't have any dopamine secretion, and she wasn't blind enough to think that this man was handsome.

But the person taking the photo with my mother is obviously a handsome young man, and he has nothing to do with the greasy uncle in front of him!

The mistress subconsciously comforted herself, it was fake, it must be fake! How could this man be the boyfriend that my mother had been thinking about for more than 20 years?

She never thought that more than 20 years had passed, and it was not impossible for the handsome young man to become a greasy old man.

At this time, the scumbag's head was full of thoughts. He had had many girlfriends before, but the gentle and quiet girl impressed him the most.

Although the other person was not the prettiest, she was the one he felt most sorry for. He deceived her with a fake name and then left without saying a word.

Over the years, he would always think of that person when he woke up in the middle of the night. He never imagined that the mistress was actually that person's daughter!

No wonder the two look so alike. When he first saw Xiao San, he almost mistook her for him. If it weren't for the age difference, he would have thought Xiao San was the other person.

Although the mistress and the scumbag both felt that they might have been "predicted" by Qi Nian, so what if they were right? They would not admit it. Otherwise, if people knew that this was true, it would be too embarrassing for them, right?

Well...even though one of them is a mistress and the other has an affair while married and brings the mistress home, they still have to save their dignity.

The mistress has now made up her mind to break up with this scumbag as soon as possible. Even though he is very rich, she remembers that her mother has been looking for ways to dump him for many years.

Moreover, it seems that she has had some idea recently, who knows, maybe she will find it one day.

When that time comes...she couldn't imagine the scene.

Thinking of this, the mistress wanted to take the opportunity to leave, and planned to block the scumbag's contact information after leaving and pretend that she had never known him.

However, she did not get what she wanted this time. Before she left, she heard a bystander nearby asking a middle-aged woman who seemed to be looking for someone: "Auntie, who are you looking for? This place is very busy. Did you find the wrong place?"

The middle-aged woman looked around blankly, and finally said, "I... I'm looking for Dan Kuang."

She remembered that this was the name of the person she was looking for.

"Shan Kuang!" The eyes of the onlookers who were talking flashed with gossip. Isn't this Shan Kuang the scumbag who brought his mistress to the house?

Why is there someone looking for Dan Kuang again now?

For a moment, the crowd of onlookers could no longer care about the excitement and quickly pulled the middle-aged woman to ask curiously: "Auntie, tell me, why are you looking for Shan Kuang?"

Faced with the crowd that suddenly became enthusiastic, the middle-aged woman showed some suspicion in her eyes. She was afraid that the other party was a bad person, so she refused to say anything.

Seeing that she was unwilling to speak, the crowd of onlookers relied on their height advantage to peer through the crowd and saw that Shan Kuang and Xiao San actually wanted to leave.

The crowd of onlookers immediately became anxious. His onlooker radar told him that this middle-aged woman might play a greater role and he couldn't let her escape.

The crowd of onlookers quickly pulled the middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman was startled and tried to shake off the crowd's hands. She said in panic: "What are you doing? Let me go, let me go!"

"Hey, auntie, don't be anxious. Don't you want to find Shan Kuang? I'll take you to find Shan Kuang!" As he said that, he pulled the middle-aged woman and walked through the crowd, ignoring the curses from the people around him.

After finally squeezing to the front, the crowd pointed at the bald, big-bellied Shan Kuang and said, "Look, that's Shan Kuang!"

After he finished speaking, he saw that the middle-aged woman didn't say anything but stared at the mistress. He scratched his head and said, "Auntie, you..."

Before he could finish, the middle-aged woman shouted at the mistress, "Ran Ran? Aren't you at work? Why are you here?"

Xiao San, Bao Ran, almost thought she was hallucinating. Damn it, how come she heard her mother's voice just when she was about to slip away?

When I turned around, I saw my mother staring at me. I realized that it was not hallucination, but she was not feeling well.

The middle-aged woman, who was one of the onlookers next to Bao's mother, looked at the two people and rolled her eyes: "Auntie, do you know her? Who is she to you?"

"Of course I know her, she is my daughter!" Bao's mother obviously didn't know what was going on.

Qi Nian was also nearby. When he heard this, he was immediately shocked. How could it be such a coincidence? Bao Ran's mother just happened to appear here.

The crowd of onlookers thought of the big news they had just heard and clapped their hands: "If you were her mother, wouldn't it be... the ex-boyfriend who dumped you that you have been looking for for so many years is now with your daughter? Oh, your daughter is the mistress of your ex-boyfriend who dumped you!"

This guy is just a melon eater and is not afraid of trouble. Qi Nian couldn't help but want to bite his fingers after listening to him.

This complicated relationship made Bao's mother a little unresponsive. She widened her eyes and then threw her hands: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

The crowd pointed at Shan Kuang and said, "This is the Shan Kuang you are looking for. However, he is with your daughter now. Oh, Shan Kuang has a wife now."

The crowd: "Auntie, I think you should still control your daughter. This... this is not appropriate!"

Bao's mother only felt a "boom" in her head, and her brain continued to be congested. Could there be anything more stimulating than this situation?

"Bao Ran! Your father and I worked so hard to support your studies, is that for you to be someone else's concubine? You...you make me so mad!" Bao's mother said, looking for something handy everywhere to pick up Bao Ran.

"Mom..." Bao Ran finally felt a little ashamed at this time, and pulled Bao's mother: "Let's go back and talk about it, let's go back and talk about it."

However, Bao's mother has lost all her rationality. She is almost going crazy because her daughter has become someone else's mistress. She doesn't even care that Dan Kuang, whom she has been looking for for many years, may be right next to her.

She asked Bao Ran madly why he didn't study hard. Her voice was sad and every word was full of heartache. No mother would want her daughter to do such a self-deprecating thing.

The onlooker looked at Bao's mother, who was crying and almost collapsed, and murmured to the person next to him with a guilty conscience: "Was what I just said too much?"

Qi Nian beside him: "..."

Uh...what you just said was quite impressive.

Bao Ran became a mistress. Although Bao's mother made some mistakes in her education, she was indeed quite miserable. It would have been fine if her daughter had done such a thing, but she happened to do it with her ex-boyfriend who had abandoned her...

The people around her had mixed feelings as they looked at this devastated mother.

Mo Jinfeng whispered to Ning Min quietly, "I haven't cried yet."

Ning Min patted Mo Jinfeng.

Seeing that there was no way to persuade his mother to leave, Bao Ran felt ashamed and became more and more impatient.

So, she finally couldn't control herself and exploded. She shook off her mother who kept pulling her and screamed, "You said I was ashamed, but aren't you ashamed? You're married to my dad, but you're still obsessed with a man who doesn't want you. You're sorry to my dad, and you're sorry to me! I'm like this because of you, I learned it from you? I'm bad at heart, and it's because I inherited your bad genes! You're the one who's wrong!"

Bao's mother looked at her daughter in disbelief. She had never thought that her daughter would say such words or think of her like this.

Bao's mother: "How can you say that to me? I'm your mother."

"Yes, you are my mother, so we are equally bad! I destroyed other people's families, and you are no better, you have also let my father down!" Bao Ran no longer knew what she was saying. She only cared about venting her anger. She pulled Bao's mother and pointed at Shan Kuang to show her: "See? It's him, he is the one you have been thinking about all these years."

Bao Ran: "Is this kind of person worthy of your obsession for so many years? I was with him only because of his money. I was only with him for the money. Even if I am not good to others, I will definitely be good to myself! What about you? It's really ridiculous that you are still obsessed with such a bald, fat, greasy man. Don't you think it's disgusting?"

Shan Kuang: “…”

He was a little angry. Bao Ran usually acted coquettishly and praised him, but he didn't expect that she actually thought about him so much in her heart!

At this moment, he suddenly felt the goodness of Mo Jinfeng. At least the other party seemed to really treat him as a treasure.

No, there is also Bao’s mother. Hasn’t Bao’s mother also been thinking about him for more than 20 years?

Thinking of this, Shan Kuang gave a smile that he thought was charming and looked at Bao's mother.

It took Bao's mother a long time to come back to her senses. She looked at the man in front of her with trembling eyes: "You...you are Shan Kuang?"

Shan Kuang smiled and nodded: "It's me, all these years you..."

Before he could finish his reminiscing, Bao's mother said in disbelief, "How did you become so ugly?"

Shan Kuang was shocked: "..."

Bao's mother didn't know whether she was talking to herself or Shan Kuang. She shook her head desperately: "Impossible, you can't be him. He is handsome and rich, how could he be a pig-head like you!"

Shan Kuang was a little angry: "You are going too far. Twenty years have passed. Haven't you become ugly? How dare you criticize me?"

"You are not him, you are not him..." Bao's mother seemed not to have heard Shan Kuang's words and kept muttering to herself.

However, Bao Ran did not give him a chance to deceive himself, and pulled Bao's mother to stop her from leaving: "Mom, this is the person you are looking for, the person you have been thinking about for so long. Don't you think you are ridiculous?!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a "slap" sound. Bao Ran covered his face which was hurt by Bao's mother's beating, and looked at Bao's mother with red eyes: "It's useless for you to hit me. Wasn't what I said right?!"

The daughter became a mistress, and the faith she had held on to for many years collapsed. The continuous blows and the harsh words of her daughter completely broke Bao's mother. She suddenly cried and broke free from Bao Ran's hand, and with a "bang", she hit her head against the tree.

Bao Ran's eyes widened, and he ran over like crazy to hug Bao's mother: "Mom!"

After a period of chaos, Bao's mother was sent to the hospital. Mo Jinfeng shook her head. Although Bao Ran was in a miserable state now, she really couldn't sympathize with him.

"Am I not miserable? That damn scumbag actually wanted to bring his mistress home, how disgusting!" Mo Jinfeng cursed.

However, after what happened today, the scumbag and the mistress probably won't be able to get together again, unless they are truly loyal and faithful.

Well...now it seems that they obviously don't have such feelings.

As she was speaking, Ning Min patted her and asked her to look to the side.

Mo Jinfeng looked puzzled and found Shan Kuang walking towards them.

Shan Kuang changed his previous demeanor and burst into tears, saying, "Jin Feng, I was wrong. Let's make peace."

Shan Kuang could see that those beautiful young girls were only interested in his money. He didn't mind that. However, he couldn't stand the fact that these people spent his money and yet looked down on him.

Now that I think about it, Jin Feng is still the best. She can take care of the household for him and gave birth to a pair of children for him.

He thought he should admit his mistake. Even if he went out to look for someone, he would not let Jin Feng find out, so as not to make her angry.

In Shan Kuo's opinion, it is not easy for a man to achieve this level. After all, there is no fox that does not cheat.

Moreover, Jin Feng has lost some weight recently (because of being angry) and has become more beautiful.

However, his idea was good, but Mo Jinfeng was so angry that she laughed: "Reconcile? You are dreaming, I want to divorce you!"

"Don't." Shan Kuang felt that she was being petty: "A prodigal son who returns is more valuable than gold. Jin Feng, please give me another chance!"

If it were in the past, Mo Jinfeng might have hesitated, but now, she has figured it out. It would be great to divorce this scumbag. There will be many handsome young men in the future. Why should she face this old face all day long?

Although the mistress has been socially dead and has gotten her retribution, the scumbag still doesn't feel any pain.

Thinking of this, Mo Jinfeng felt a little unhappy.

Not far away, Qi Nian suddenly heard a scream. Turning around, he saw Shan Kuang covering his mouth in pain, while Mo Jinfeng slowly retracted his legs.

Qi Nian: "..." Hiss...

Mo Jinfeng finally decided to hire a lawyer and file for divorce against Shan Kuang.

She didn't want to let Shan Kuang off easily, as he was the one at fault. She would definitely have an advantage in dividing the property.

No matter what, she had to get more money. Mo Jinfeng roughly calculated that the money she could get was enough for her to enjoy food, drink, and fun for the rest of her life.

Thinking about this, I felt even more anxious to get a divorce.

After the court's verdict, Mo Jinfeng, with the guidance of someone unknown, gave Bao Ran and Shan Kuang a big gift.

Their colleagues in the company all knew about their destruction of other people's families/their cheating.

I don’t know whether Bao Ran and Shan Kuang are embarrassed to continue working in their original units.

——

When Qi Nian found out about this, it had been a few days. It seemed that Mo Jinfeng was in a good mood. Ning Min said that he had packed up and went traveling recently, which was a way to relax.

Qi Nian: "As long as Aunt Mo is in a good mood, that's fine."

Ning Min glanced at the dozen or so Moments that the other party had posted in the past few hours and thought to herself: This is more than good.

Uh... why is there a picture in a circle of friends showing Mo Jinfeng touching a young man’s abdominal muscles?

Ning Min glanced at Qi Nian and quickly turned off her phone. Ah... she couldn't let a child see this kind of scene.

The little boy Qi Nian did not notice his aunt's sudden guilty feeling, he went to read Lu Ze's notes.

However, notes are something that the person involved may understand clearly, but others may not necessarily understand them clearly.

Qi Nian had studied the knowledge points for a long time, but still didn't quite understand one of the steps. He hesitated for a moment and turned on his mobile phone.

Lu Ze should still be busy with work at this moment, so he did not disturb her. After thinking for a while, he sent a message to Zhong Qin.

Zhong Qin sent me a photo of two hands holding together.

【Zhong Tan】: I’m on a date.

[Qinian]: Ah...then I'll ask again later.

[Zhong Qin]: But Xiaotian doesn’t mind if I delay a little while, so I’ll help you take a look.

Everyone thought: "..."

Forget it, since Zhong Qin taught him the questions, let them show their love.

Zhong Qin is quite reliable. After reading it for a while, he sent me an explanation.

Qi Nian suddenly realized, so that's how it is!

Alas, this kind of problem involving logical thinking always tends to get stuck in a rut.

He quickly sent a thank you to Zhong Qin and wished them a happy date. Then he continued to do the questions.

Holding the pen and writing down the answer, Qi Nian paused and wanted to touch his phone to see what Chu Rongshi was doing.

The other party was on a business trip recently, and he would send him a message almost no matter what he did. Although Qi Nian did not reply, he would check on him from time to time, and it almost became a habit.

His hand touched the phone case beside him, and the cold touch made him pause. He shook his head quickly, saying, "No, no, how can I be distracted while doing my homework?"

Qi Nian reprimanded himself for a moment, then quickly retracted his messy thoughts and continued to do the questions.

——

As soon as the class was over, Lu Ze left like the wind.

Classmates also noticed that Lu Ze was very busy recently. Some curious classmates came to ask Qi Nian.

Qi Nian laughed: "I don't know."

Ahem, social phobia really doesn’t allow him to deal with other people’s problems, so he had to hurry up to pack up his things and leave the classroom quickly.

Only a few people were left sighing: "You only said three sentences this time?"

"It's obvious that she doesn't like you, so don't get too close to her."

"How could I not know what you said? Isn't it because he's good-looking that I want to talk to him more?"

"Tsk, face control."

"Aren't you? If you can, stop peeking at others."

Qi Nian did not hear these conversations. After leaving the teaching building, he saw Liu Yu waving at him from a distance: "Let's go and have dinner together."

Facing a familiar person, Qi Nian relaxed and nodded.

"Today we have braised pork elbows and red-braised pork. I'll arrange the red-braised pork, and you arrange the braised pork elbows." Liu Yu assigned the tasks.

"Ah... wouldn't it be too disgusting if I eat it all?" Qi Nian's face wrinkled.

"Then let's just buy one portion and some vegetarian dishes." Liu Yu felt that this problem was easy to solve.

Qi Nian nodded and agreed.

The two of them went to the cafeteria to eat and came out. There was still some time before the afternoon class, so Qi Nian prepared to go to the library.

Liu Yu: "Then I'll go too. It's almost the end of the semester and I need to cram!"

The two of them headed towards the library. They saw a middle-aged couple in plain clothes, who seemed to be looking for someone.

Liu Yu was a passionate person, so she immediately walked over and asked, "Uncle and aunt, are you looking for someone?"

The couple saw that Liu Yu should be a student of this school, and nodded excitedly: "Yes, little girl, we are looking for my son! Can you help us look for him?"

"Oh, you can call your son. There are many students in our school, and I don't know your son." Liu Yu said to the middle-aged couple.

"This...this..." The middle-aged man grabbed the corner of his clothes awkwardly.

The middle-aged woman smiled embarrassedly and said, "We...we don't have my daughter's phone number either."

"Ah?" Liu Yu was stunned. How could someone not know his daughter's phone number?

She had some doubts in her heart, wondering if these two people were bad people.

Perhaps she saw Liu Yu's suspicion, the middle-aged woman said quickly: "Child, you... don't misunderstand, we are really here to look for our children! Our daughter... was lost when she was little, and it took us so many years to find out that she was studying in this school."

Liu Yu: Ah?

She looked at Qi Nian in confusion and whispered, "What should I do? Is he a liar?"

Qi Nian shook his head: "I don't know."

The two looked at the middle-aged couple who suddenly burst into tears, and finally learned from them that the couple was indeed looking for their daughter.

They watched a family search program on a certain channel and, with the mentality of giving it a try, asked the program organization to help them find their daughter.

Unexpectedly, the people from the program production team actually found them. They just said that they would contact their daughter in a few days and then see if she was willing to meet. If so, they would bring them over.

But the couple really couldn't help it, they missed their daughter so much, so they came to look for her based on the little information they got from the program crew.

"What should we do now?" Liu Yu asked Qi Nian in a low voice after listening.

"If that's the case, I think we should ask the program team to help make the contact," Qi Nian said.

Didn't the production crew say that we have to wait for our daughter to agree to meet? Even if the other party misses their daughter very much, they have to wait until the arrangements are made.

Liu Yu nodded and said to the couple, "You don't know more about your daughter, so you will definitely not be able to find her. I think uncle and aunt should wait for the program team to arrange a meeting."

Seeing that they couldn't find Liu Yu, the couple had no choice but to thank her and left with a lonely look on their faces.

——

Qi Nian looked at the time and saw that class was about to start. He stretched his sore neck, patted Liu Yu, and pointed outside, indicating that he was going to class.

Liu Yu nodded and made an OK gesture to indicate that he understood.

After leaving the library, Qi Nian let out a breath, turned on his phone, and subconsciously clicked on Chu Rongshi's WeChat.

He has done this habitually in the past two days.

I thought if I didn't check it for a few hours, there would be a lot of new messages, but... there was not a single new message.

Qi Nian pursed his lips slightly, not admitting that he felt a little disappointed. Well, his brother was on a business trip, and it was normal for him to not check his phone for several hours.

He turned off his phone, then turned it back on. Hmm...was it because I didn't reply? It seems like not replying is really not polite.

Qi Nian moved his fingers and sent an emoticon, then suddenly came to his senses and quickly withdrew it.

Help, what am I doing!

Embracing and giving up...
