But thinking about what he had learned, he straightened his chest, patted it and said, "Although I don't have a partner, I have pursued many girls. At least I have more experience than the boss."
"You've chased so many girls, why don't you have a partner yet?" Xu Qi didn't believe Xiao Zhu's nonsense.
He knew exactly what kind of people these men were. If he was really as powerful as he said, he wouldn't have never even held a girl's hand.
"Boss, you're wrong. I'm giving you advice, but you're stabbing me in the heart. I was pursuing them, but I realized they weren't right for me, so I gave up. It's not that I'm incompetent."
"Really?"
"Of course, Boss, let me tell you..."
Xiao Zhu quickly gave him a lot of ideas, and Xu Qi listened very carefully, but he always remained skeptical.
…
Song Tanglan lived an ordinary life as before. Apart from going to work, he spent the rest of his time wandering around the mountains with Su Tao and the others. Occasionally, he would watch Su Tao and Sun Jianhua being affectionate and eat some dog food to fill his stomach.
But during this period of time, she always felt that Jiang Shubai often hesitated to speak. He had something to say but didn't say it in the end. Sometimes he looked at her with complicated eyes, which was not like their usual way of getting along. It seemed like he had something on his mind.
They were all very worried when they saw him like this, but they didn't dare to ask.
However, this strange atmosphere was broken again when Su Chunjiao came to visit.
Song Tanglan had just returned home after taking a bath and cleaning the little guy. She was playing with him in the yard when suddenly she heard some noise in the yard. She looked at the time on her hand and it was not time for her second sister to come back.
He stood up and opened the gate while holding Mumu in his arms, muttering to himself.
"Who is it? Coming at this hour?"
But she didn't expect that the person who opened the door was Su Chunjiao. When she saw her, Song Tanglan was stunned, but she quickly reacted and asked.
"Su Zhiqing, who are you looking for? My second sister hasn't come back yet!"
When Su Chunjiao saw Song Tanglan, she smiled warmly. Then she looked at Mumu in her arms and smiled even more kindly.
"I'm not here to look for your second sister. I'm here to look for you. Can I go in and talk?"
"Okay, come in!" Song Tanglan didn't think that this man would be bold enough to come to her house to torture her, so she let her in directly. Besides, it was indeed impolite to keep talking at the gate of the yard.
Song Tanglan took her to sit on the stone bench in the yard, poured her a cup of scented tea, and then looked at her with a puzzled expression.
She didn't think that anything good would come from this person coming to her house. After all, their relationship had already deteriorated to this point. It was obviously a case of the wolf king visiting the chickens and he had ulterior motives.
"Xiao Song, the educated youth, I came to see the little baby this time. You know that I have been married for so many years and have never been pregnant, so I wanted to come and share in the good fortune." After saying that, he looked at Mumu eagerly.
Song Tanglan looked at her like this and still felt a little skeptical. She didn't think that this was her only purpose. Only she knew whether this was true or not.
"So that's how it is. Su Zhiqing, some fate can't be forced. If you really want to get pregnant, why don't you go see a doctor? You can also take your husband to see a doctor. Maybe they can check what the problem is?"
When Su Chunjiao heard her mention this, her eyes looked a little lonely. She lowered her head to hide her expression and said dejectedly.
"We've had a checkup, and both of us are healthy. I just can't get pregnant for some reason, so I came here to try my luck. Xiao Song, can I hold Mumu?"
Her words were sincere and heartfelt, but Song Tanglan still didn't believe that people could change so much. They were clearly enemies before, so was he acting like this now to let her down so he could hurt Mumu? Or did he have another purpose?
Looking at her longing eyes, Song Tanglan no longer dared to let her hold Mumu. But directly refusing her would be too unkind, so she came up with an idea.
"Mumu doesn't like being held by outsiders. I'm sorry, Su Zhiqing. How about I take you to Aunt Li's house to hold Xiaoli and Xiaodong? They're the same. Aunt Sun has given birth to three more children. Maybe you can get more of her blessings."
Su Chunjiao felt a little disappointed when she heard her rejection, but she didn't insist any further. After chatting with her for a few more words, she said goodbye and left.
Su Chunjiao walked out of the door and walked back along the alley, but the expression on her face was no longer as kind as before, and her eyes were full of jealousy and madness.
What she just said was indeed true. She had been married for so long and had always wanted to have a child. It was also because she got married first, but Song Tangcheng, who married later, got pregnant. The child was already so big, but there was still no movement in her belly.
Her mother-in-law often used this matter to provoke her, and because of this, her weak husband was no longer as kind as before, and they quarreled about it from time to time.
This also made her life in the Cui family even more difficult. She didn't want to go to this point, but the temptation given by that man was too great.
That was so that she could escape from her current husband's family and return to the city. Returning to the city was her lifelong dream. If her family had not been so unsupportive when she went to the countryside, why would she marry this loser now?
She thought she would have to stay in the countryside for the rest of her life, but now there is a huge opportunity in front of her. How can she not grab it?
Just as she was lost in thought, she saw Jiang Shubai not far away. Thinking of the news she had heard some time ago, she couldn't help but chuckle.
"Some people are inherently opposites, yet they insist on struggling out of the quagmire, yearning for a little bit of family affection and freedom. They possess endless wealth and everything they desire, yet they give up everything for that ridiculous sentiment. In the end, both sides suffer. It's truly ridiculous."
