Chapter 124: Discovery of an affair.
Early the next morning, Zheng Jiaojiao woke up from bed and couldn't wait to put on her clothes and go downstairs.
As she went downstairs, what caught her eye was Xu Xiaoyue, wearing a blue blouse with floral patterns and her hair braided into a pigtail, sitting leisurely at the dining table waiting for breakfast.
She looked at Xu Xiaoyue's expression carefully, and there was not a single dark spot on the girl's bright almond-shaped eyes.
Her skin is so supple and she is in the mood to eat breakfast. No matter how you look at her, she doesn't look like she hasn't slept all night.
Zheng Jiaojiao's eyes darkened instantly. She had deliberately locked the door last night while Xu Xiaoyue was going downstairs.
The purpose is to force Xu Xiaoyue to beg him to open the door.
Zheng Jiaojiao had thought it through. It was still almost November and the temperature dropped sharply at night. Even a man in pajamas would not be able to bear it outside, let alone Xu Xiaoyue.
At that time, I will freeze her all night to cure her fever. Otherwise, she will get sick from the cold, or even die from the cold.
Zheng Jiaojiao came down early with the intention of watching a joke. She clenched her palms, calmed her expression, and sat opposite Xu Xiaoyue.
Xu Xiaoyue had already noticed the sound of Zheng Jiaojiao coming down the stairs, and did not miss the flash of surprise in the woman's eyes.
She picked up the cup beside her, drank a sip of milk, turned her head to look at the kitchen, and called out in a delicate voice, "Didn't you say you'd cook preserved egg and lean meat porridge? When is it ready?"
“Here I come.”
The man, wearing an apron that didn't fit him, walked out of the kitchen with his back bent, holding a small bowl in his hand.
"Try my cooking."
The man said as he placed the small bowl in front of the woman.
The porridge just out of the pot is sprinkled with a layer of green chopped green onions and has a fragrant hot steam.
"Be careful, it's hot. I'll go to the kitchen and get you a spoon to eat with."
It was as if Yan Ye didn't even see Zheng Jiaojiao and completely ignored her from beginning to end.
After everyone left, Zheng Jiaojiao looked at Xu Xiaoyue and asked unhappily, "Where did you sleep last night?"
She already had a vague answer in her mind, but she still asked to get to the bottom of it.
Xu Xiaoyue touched the small bowl in front of her, turned her head and looked at Zheng Jiaojiao. She deliberately leaned close to the woman's ear and whispered, "Isn't this obvious?"
"Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have this opportunity."
Zheng Jiaojiao's guess came true. Thinking that she had done a good thing with bad intentions, the expression on her face became more distorted, and the look in her eyes as she glared at Xu Xiaoyue was like knives.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell my aunt about this?"
As she spoke, the panicked expression on Xu Xiaoyue's face that she had imagined did not appear.
The girl didn't panic at all. Instead, she fiddled with her black hair from time to time, as if she had heard something very funny. "Tell me, it's better to say it louder so that everyone knows."
She said this in a delicate and playful manner, her tone full of indifference.
Zheng Jiaojiao choked subconsciously, then she realized that Yan Ye was not Yan Shuli.
If she really spread the news that Xu Xiaoyue deliberately seduced men, Yan Ye might just take Xu Xiaoyue to get the marriage certificate.
This is exactly what Xu Xiaoyue wants!
Seeing her deflated expression, Xu Xiaoyue couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The girl's silver bell-like voice reached the kitchen. Yan Ye took a spoon and walked out. His eyes fell on her, doting on her as if it was real. "What are you laughing at? It's time to eat."
He walked over and gently stroked Xu Xiaoyue's head. His gentle aura didn't seem like the man Zheng Jiaojiao knew.
"Then I'll wait for you to get me a spoon. I'm starving." The girl shook her head and avoided the man's touch. Her dark almond eyes widened.
"Okay, I'm sorry, our baby is hungry."
Yan Ye saw that Xu Xiaoyue was deliberately acting coquettishly in front of Zheng Jiaojiao. Normally, the girl would not talk to him in such a sweet tone like honey. It would be true that she would ignore him all the time.
But even if he was being used, Yan Ye was happy to do it.
Zheng Jiaojiao could no longer hide her jealous look, and she clenched her fingers tightly to avoid showing a sullen look on the spot.
She just didn't understand what was so good about Xu Xiaoyue other than her looks that made a man pay so much attention to her.
Zheng Jiaojiao ate this meal without any appetite and felt absent-minded.
Xu Xiaoyue had admired the pale face of the man opposite her enough, so after dinner she followed Yan Ye to the army.
Aunt Wang was cleaning up the dishes and turned around to see Yan Ye standing at the door with a small girl's handbag in her hand. Seeing that Xu Xiaoyue was about to put on a thin coat to go out, she went upstairs and changed her coat for her.
The two had no intention of hiding their intimate behavior from Wang Ma.
When she first saw it, her heart skipped a beat.
Watching the two people open the door and walk away, Wang Ma stood there, still a little dazed.
"Auntie Wang, you also think Xu Xiaoyue is too abominable, don't you? She is obviously Brother Shuli's fiancée, but she is still hooking up with my uncle."
"If Brother Shuli knew about the two of them doing this, what would everyone think of our Yan family?"
Zheng Jiaojiao's slightly anxious voice brought Wang Ma back to her senses. She frowned and retorted subconsciously.
"That marriage is just a joke between adults. Even if Xiaoyue and the second young master are together, who dares to say a word?"
Mother Wang felt unbelievable at first, and then she felt that it was as she expected.
Last time, when Yan Ye deliberately hid behind Xu Xiaoyue and scared the girl, Mother Wang already felt something was wrong.
She had worked in the Yan family for so many years, and had never seen Yan Ye, this cold and wooden man, show any extra concern for any female comrade.
He always looks like he wants to stay three meters away from his female compatriots.
Recalling how Yan Ye had just carried the bag and urged the girl to change into thick clothes, the man's cold face became warm.
Zheng Jiaojiao choked up, as if she didn't expect Wang Ma to say that.
She lowered her eyes, pinched her sleeves, and whispered as if to herself: "But, if she is already with my uncle, why would she insist on getting married to Brother Shuli?"
She spoke not loudly, as if she was speaking up for Yan Shuli. Aunt Wang sneered.
If she didn't have a good memory, she would have almost forgotten that a few months ago, Zheng Jiaojiao stayed up late at night, and she and Yan Shuli huddled on the sofa and quarreled with each other, and finally she sprained her ankle and was admitted to the hospital.
Why didn't she think at that time that Yan Shuli was Xu Xiaoyue's "fiancé" and why didn't she think about keeping a distance from him?
Aunt Wang saw clearly what Zheng Jiaojiao was thinking, but she was too lazy to say it out loud for fear of making everyone uncomfortable.
She rolled up her sleeves and casually said, "Director Liu said that a telegram from your hometown was sent yesterday and asked you to reply."
After giving the instructions, Aunt Wang went back to the kitchen and started washing the dishes.
She walked easily, as if she didn't take Zheng Jiaojiao seriously at all, and her chest rose and fell due to the woman's anger.
Aunt Wang is just a nanny in the Yan family. Who does she think she is? How dare she show such disrespect to me?
Zheng Jiaojiao closed her eyes and thought to herself that when the day came when she really married into the Yan family, she would divorce Wang Ma and make her cry and beg her for mercy after she got her.
After some psychological comfort, Zheng Jiaojiao managed to calm herself down, changed her shoes and went out.
