I Became A Hit After My Divorce!
Chapter 214
214 Pretend Not to Know
Gu Meizhi rolled her eyes and didn’t say anything else. Instead, she lay on the bed. Cui Zhanyi also sighed. “Rest first. I’ll go for a walk.” Then, he walked out.
Du Juan, who was outside the door, had already turned pale with fear. She hurriedly ran back quietly and heaved a sigh of relief when she entered her room.
“What are you doing? Why are you acting like a thief?” Cui Peng was tying his tie. When he saw his wife like this, he couldn’t help but frown. “Didn’t you say that you were going to the kitchen to make something to eat?”
“I…” Du Juan hesitated for a moment. “I heard Dad and Mom arguing just now. I was afraid that it would be awkward for them to see me, so I came back.”
“Argument?” Cui Peng’s eyes flashed, then he smiled. “Isn’t it normal for husband and wife to bicker?”
Du Juan smiled and did not say anything. There was indeed no husband and wife who did not bicker. However, what the in-laws said when they quarreled was shocking enough. No wonder she kept feeling that everyone’s attitude towards her eldest sister-in-law was very strange. It turned out that she was her father-in-law’s illegitimate daughter, and the mother was her mother-in-law’s cousin. Now that her eldest sister-in-law was dead, they were still eyeing her daughter’s kidney.
Although she already knew what her husband’s family was like, she still felt shocked and disappointed.
“Why are you in a daze?” Cui Peng frowned.
“It’s fine. I want to wait for them to calm down before going out. What if I get into trouble?” Du Juan sat down in front of the dressing table. She had been married for almost twenty years and had wrinkles.
“Alright.” Cui Peng also sat down. “Let’s pretend not to know.”
“Aren’t you going out?”
“Why don’t you come with me?”
“Is it appropriate?”
“You’re my wife. It’s just a business gathering today. It couldn’t be more appropriate for you to accompany me.”
“Sure.” Du Juan nodded and went over to look for clothes, only to realize that there were no suitable clothes for the banquet. “Hehe, other than when you took me out when we first got married, I don’t have any banquet gowns after so many years.”
“Let’s go and buy it now. There’s still time.” Cui Peng reached out and put his arm around his wife’s shoulder. “I neglected you in the past. Don’t worry, it won’t happen again.”
Du Juan didn’t say anything and followed him out of the house, but her heart was in desolation. If he could let her accompany him, why hadn’t he said so earlier?
She glanced at the man beside her. Did he already know the truth?
Then, was he suddenly being gentle to her now because he suspected that she knew the truth? Was he trying to comfort her?
It was terrifying to think about it.
Cui Zhanyi and Gu Meizhi did not know that their daughter-in-law had heard their argument. After a moment of silence, they still discussed it. After all, their grandson’s illness could not be delayed.
In the end, they really came up with a solution.
Le Yao didn’t know that her grandparents were still thinking about her. For the past few days, other than doing questions, she had been browsing Weibo. Strangely, Yan Zimeng’s popularity suddenly dropped, but her own popularity increased. She didn’t know which little cutie had uploaded the video of her dancing with Qiao Qiao in the bar back then. Then, she quickly occupied third place on the trending searches and replaced Yan Zimeng’s video.
However, because of the distance of the video and the heavy makeup she and Qiao Qiao had put on back then, no one recognized them.
