After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 226 Reunion
Chapter 226: Chapter 226 Reunion
Shen Qingqing returned to the courtyard again, and this time her state was noticeably different from before.
Seeing Jiang Zhixun openly wrapping his arm around Shen Qingqing’s shoulder, looking intimate, everyone was stunned.
Watching them enter the Jiang Family’s door, the next moment, people present erupted into intense discussion.
"Are they...back together?"
"If they weren’t back together, would Zhixun be holding Shen Qingqing like that? Wouldn’t that be just messing around?"
"When Zhixun was in the hospital, Qingqing came back to help—cooking, taking care of the patient. At that time, I had a feeling there was something going on, they were definitely going to remarry. Turns out I was right."
"They said they divorced, but except for those four years when Qingqing was abroad, the rest of the time they’ve never really been apart. Either Zhixun went looking for her, or she came back to the courtyard. How is it any different from living like a married couple?"
"Zhixun has been single all along just waiting for Shen Qingqing. It’s good they are back together now, otherwise he’d be too old by the time they reconcile." frёewebnoѵēl.com
"If they’re remarried, so be it—doesn’t matter to us anyway."
"Yang Fen’s matchmaking attempts failed several times. Knowing Jiang Zhixun and Shen Qingqing are back together, she’ll probably blow her top!"
"Who says not? When Zhixun divorced, she grandly chased him to the Northwest. I thought they could make it, since not many women would do that much for a man—it’s easy to move a man’s heart."
"Jiang Zhixun used to not be clingy with his wife, nor anxious to have kids. How could he be moved by Yang Fen? Some people are just short-sighted; now look—their lives are ruined."
"Her sister-in-law also has a big problem. If no one pushes her to do so many wrong things, Yang Fen’s job is stable, her family’s conditions are good, she’d definitely pick a good match."
"Who knows if she’ll be able to get married."
Ever since seeing Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun at the hospital, Yang Fen tried every possible way to catch them in wrongdoing.
Unexpectedly, before she succeeded, Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun made it public.
They are dating.
And they’ve been seeing each other for a while.
Yang Fen was so angry her face turned red; if she exposed the matter now, could she still get the results she expected?
Over the years, things hadn’t gone well for Yang Fen, making her temper increasingly irritable.
Hearing someone mock her, she said irritably, "No matter what, I’m better than them. Going to buy birth control before marriage—how shameless!"
If Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun hadn’t been married, this talk would definitely cause an uproar.
But now, people thought nothing of it.
They were married for three years, hardly a pristine relationship.
Now they’re reconciled, of course, their passion will reignite.
And moreover, things coming from Yang Fen’s mouth might not be true.
Maybe she’s upset and deliberately smearing Jiang Zhixun and Shen Qingqing?
A sister-in-law rolled her eyes, "Why are you always watching them, so focused? You might as well hide under their bed."
"You haven’t been married; how can you brazenly bring that up? I think you’re the shameless one!"
Yang Fen used to be introverted, not much interacting with people in the courtyard, but she was gentle and quiet, and when things happened, everyone was willing to lend a hand.
Now, no one wanted to associate with her.
She said she liked Jiang Zhixun so much she could give up everything for him—even going to the Northwest to suffer.
In the end, he wouldn’t accept her, and she turned around and reported Jiang Zhixun.
To someone she liked, she could be so ruthless.
If someone else crosses her, the consequences would be worse.
A biting dog—it’s better to stay away from her. Otherwise, one day she might suddenly bite, and that would be a big loss!
No one sided with Yang Fen.
Not only did they not support her, they discreetly distanced themselves.
Yang Fen’s face turned even redder.
She wasn’t carrying a contagious disease, so why stay so far away from her?
These people were bullying her!
Sneering, "Fence-sitters, you didn’t hold back gossiping about Shen Qingqing before, laughing at her marriage but not winning Jiang Zhixun’s heart. Now suddenly you flatter her because she has a good job? You’re all opportunists!"
Those she scolded were unhappy.
Sneering back at Yang Fen, "Shen Qingqing is impressive; no matter how wild Jiang Zhixun is, hasn’t she tamed him? Not like some people, making themselves look miserable without gaining anything!"
Yang Fen no longer wanted to be with Jiang Zhixun, but she couldn’t stand them being well.
Also, she couldn’t stand others siding with Shen Qingqing.
Through gritted teeth, she asked, "Flattering won’t help. Will Shen Qingqing even bother with you?"
"Don’t instigate conflict; we don’t buy into that!"
The Jiang Family is hard to provoke, and Shen Qingqing is now a university teacher.
People with smart eyes wouldn’t gossip at such a time.
Glancing at Yang Fen’s unpleasant face, they said, "Spread more rumors, and nobody will want to be matched with you come New Year’s!"
This was Yang Fen’s sore spot.
With good family conditions and a stable job—just because she did some insignificant things, why was getting matched so hard?
Feeling wronged.
She really was sabotaged by Jiang Zhixun.
If she were a few years younger, she’d have a wider range of choices.
And wouldn’t be mocked as an old maid who can’t marry.
"I’m not spreading rumors; they really went to the hospital!"
"What’s that got to do with you?"
Yang Fen didn’t know how to argue back, only managing to blurt out, "They have no shame!"
Unable to win the argument, she ran off.
In others’ eyes, Yang Fen running showed she was in the wrong.
"Li Hongyan has a loose tongue, and Yang Fen was led astray by her—saying everything out loud, stirring trouble even before marriage—no wonder good families won’t dare match with her. If she were brought home, no one in the house would have peace."
"Who says not? Marrying the wrong wife ruins three generations, Li Hongyan caused them so much trouble."
Previously when Jiang Zhixun was hospitalized, Li Hongyan urged Yang Fen to seize the last chance.
In the end, it was exposed, and Yang Fen’s engagement was canceled.
Yang’s mother suggested splitting the family, but Li Hongyan refused, quietly doing house chores for a while until the matter settled down.
However, as for Yang Fen and her sister-in-law’s relationship, it was completely broken.
Thinking of everything done, all the hardships endured, all that was lost, yet Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun ended up together, Yang Fen got angry.
The anger surged to the top when seeing Li Hongyan.
Rolling her eyes, "Troublemaker!"
Li Hongyan was cleaning at home, inexplicably receiving the scolding, so she got mad too.
"Who are you cursing?"
"Are you a pig? Don’t you know?"
Li Hongyan’s temper isn’t good, but she can let go of pride to please others.
Lately, she tried to repair relations with her sister-in-law, but Yang Fen wouldn’t appreciate it.
Now receiving an inexplicable scolding, even the most patient person couldn’t take it!
Without thinking, she scolded back, "I’m a pig? Then you’re worse than a pig! Ungrateful trash!"
"Say that again!"
"Say it? Sure I will!"
"..."
Yang’s mother returned from outside, hearing them arguing again, but she couldn’t be bothered to mediate.
They’re not children anymore; if they don’t care about their own dignity, let them disgrace themselves!
