Dou Weir is startled: Ge Ge and Di Di, what do you mean?”
“You don’t know about it? He Yun Xiao is He Ji Fan’s Di Di.” Jing Suo Suo says: “He Yun Xiao advances his studies abroad. He just returned home yesterday, how can he know you?”
Dou Weir didn’t expect that He Yun Xiao unexpectedly is related with He Ji Fan. It’s surprising for her. She says: “Last year I went to join the fashion show abroad, we got to know each other but we are not close.”
Ye Qing Xin thinks about Gu Qiao’s court session, though she doesn’t have interest to watch but for the judgement she wants to know.
At night.
Ye Qing Xin cannot fall asleep though she is Jing Bo Yuan’s embrace.
“What is it?” Jing Bo Yuan asks her.
“Tell me, how do you think the court decide on Gu Qiao’s cases?” Supposedly it’s not should be a light punishment.
Jing Bo Yuan laughs lightly and strokes her back: “You should trust Lawyer Chen, he will give you guys a fair one.”
By ‘you guys’, Jing Bo Yuan means Ye Qing Xin, the kids, and Old Madame Yan.
On Monday, Ye Qing Xin is a bit unfocused during the cla.s.s. In the afternoon after the cla.s.s, she calls Chen Ting to as about the result of the court. Chen Ting doesn’t sound too arrogant but he is about proud. He says: “Tai Tai, please don’t worry. You will be satisfied about the result. The court will give Gu Qiao life imprisonment. Tomorrow it’ll be the court verdict.”
“Gu Qiao will not just submit to it.” Ye Qing Xin is walking toward B university park.
Gu Qiao will still have a chance to appeal to the higher court.
“Please don’t worry Tai Tai. The higher court will not accept her case.”
Ye Qing Xin believes in Chen Ting’s capabilities and words. She doesn’t ask about the reason and just says: “Then thank you, Lawyer Chen. This should be hard for you.”
“This is my duty.”
Yqx hangs up and remembers that next month, Sheng Wen Qiong will also start the court. Sheng family doesn’t say or do anything for her. Ye Qing Xin doesn’t know whether Sheng family member will be soft-hearted toward Sheng Wen Qiong. But with Chen Ting, she has no worry.
A half month later, indeed the news of Gu Qiao’s unsuccessful to appeal to the higher court is spread out. The judgement goes into effect and she is sent to the female prison.
The day Gu Qiao is taken to the prison, Gu Xing De is driving the car to the prison and on the way he has a car accident. His car is smashed to another truck, which carries a dangerous chemical. His car and his body are wrecked. It’s all over the media for several days.
Then a week later, Gu Qiao gets into a fight with another female prison. She is attacked till she is heavily injured and fainted. The time she is sent to the hospital to be rescued. It’s turn to be ineffective and she just dies.
The time Old Madame Yan hears about it, she cannot help but to get teary silently. No one knows whether she cries because of Gu Qiao’s unhappy fates or because she is sad for Gu Qiao’s past action.
At last, Yan family still goes to collect Gu Qiao’s body and cremate it. They put Gu Qiao’s remaining in the same tomb as Gu Xing De.
Previously because of Gu Qiao’s sudden death, a lot of people said that for a person like Gu Qiao, she deserved to be treated that way that no one is willing to bury her dead body. Both Yan elders are too soft-hearted.
Ye Qing Xin just smiles when she hears about it.
Ye Qing Xin recalls the first time she met Gu Qiao. That time Gu Qiao was so gentle and elegant. Her smile was sincere and warm.
In just short half year time, a lot of things have happened.
In November, Sheng Wen Qiong’s trial starts. She is sentenced to life imprisonment and her appeal is useess.
Ye Qing Xin didn’t go Sheng Wen Qiong’s trial. During the trial, Sheng Wen Qiong kept on yelling that Yu Wei is the chief culprit. She said that she was influenced by him.
However, that day Yu Wei came to be the witness for the trial. Everyone thinks that Sheng Wen Qiong said that before Yu Wei’s action of betraying her.
Old Mister Sheng directly transfers his share to Ye Qing Xin. Ye Qing Xin turns to be the second largest shareholder, she also is Bo Wei’s largest shareholder. Finally she is the winner.
Ye Qing Xin doesn’t have capability yet to handle the company, Jing Bo Yuan gives her few books about it. The time she doesn’t go to the school, she just takes care her kids and reads those books. At the same time, she also learns Germany.
Jing Bo Yuan is fluent in Germany so with his guidance and her own smart brain, she can master it well.
In just a flash, the little guys are four months old now. They are bigger now. They have double chin, their eyes are round and big. Their cheeks are cubby. Everyone seems to like them.
They also have bigger appet.i.te now. Ye Qing Xin has limited milk so she also gives them milk powder.
Today.
It’s Sunday. Ye Qing Xin takes the little guys to the hospital to have immunization. On the way home, they pa.s.s Wen Ren Xi’s teahouse. She takes them to go over and sit.
In just two months, the teahouse starts to be crowded than before. There’s no seat for now. Wen Ren Xi asks Ye Qing Xin and the little guys to go to the back room to wait for a while.
Ye Qing Xin looks around. She admires Wen Ren Xi for her good business skill. Her previous restaurant, Xi Fan, is located quite hidden in the alley, but a lot of people still come to eat there.
Wen Ren Xi always acts so calm though her store is crowded. Today she is wearing a loose sweater with a grey coat.
Wen Ren Xi serves Ye Qing Xin a fresh orange juice and cuts an orange for the kids.
Now the little guys are interesting for anything, especially for food. When they see other people are eating, they are so excited. They will stretch out their chubby hand and yell “Yi Yi Ya Ya”. Sometimes if Ye Qing Xin teases them by not giving them some, the little guys will kick their legs.
Of course it’s only Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao who do that, Mu Mu still acts very reserved. He will eat only what he is given. If he is not given any, he will just watch at that person with big eyes. It makes that person feels embarra.s.sed to eat it but he never asks for it.
Wen Ren Xi just gives each one of them a slice of an orange, it’s possibly too sour for them. Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao eats it and grimaces. Mu Mu is very calm, he just keeps eating it.
“They are so cute.” Wen Ren Xi smiles. Ye Qing Xin feels that after the wedding in these two months, Wen Ren Xi is much happier than before.
She is alarmed by it.
According to what she knows, Wen Ren Xi still acts coldly toward Jing Yi. It shows that she might has release her emotional entanglement and feeling toward him. How can a woman be happy if she cannot be together with a man that she loves?
Could it be because of Xia Cheng Qi?
Ye Qing Xin shakes her head. Impossible, Xi Jie had waited for several years for Er Shu. How can he accept another man so easily?
She is suspicious of something. Ye Qing Xin looks at Wen Ren Xi’s figure.
Wen Ren Xi still looks the same. She looks gentle and her plain face is still the same.
“Xi Jie, someone outside is looking for you.” A waiter opens the door to call her.
Wen Ren Xi is peeling an orange for Nian Nian. She asks her: “Who is it?”
“She is ex-wife of reporter Xia, she used to come here a lot.”
Wen Ren Xi stops and seems to be impatient.
“Tell her, I’m not here.”
“Okay–”
The waiter hasn’t said anything—
“What, how can I be so terrifying for you? Wen Ren Xiao Jie, why should you hide from me?” A woman speaks up from outside the door. Then the door is opened by a forty years old woman. That woman wears a designer cloth and holding a designer handbag.
Behind her, there are two other middle-aged women.
Reporter Xia’s ex-wife?
Ye Qing Xin could guess their motive to come here.
Because there are the three little guys and doesn’t hesitate anymore, she just says: “If you have something to talk to, let’s talk outside.”
Xia’s ex-wife also notices Ye Qing Xin’s three babies. Her gaze shows that she is jealous of her.
Ye Qing Xin is afraid that they will mistreat Wen Ren Xi so she comes out with her too. She also turns her head to give a signal for her hidden bodyguards.
The bodyguards start to watch Wen Ren Xi.
Just in time guests are leaving so there’s an empty table for them to sit. Wen Ren Xi sits down with them.
“What is it, you can say it now.” Wen Ren Xi ask the waiter to serve tea for them.
“Let me do it. Mainly we come here just want to remind Wen Ren Xiao Jie. Though Cheng Qi is losing his way but in the future he will return back. I want to persuade you to know your situation clearly and don’t pay a high price for your mistake.”
The waiter serves the tea for them, Xia’s ex-wife raises up her tea cup gracefully and takes a sip. She says: “Wen Ren Xiao Jie’s tea is really good. No wonder you can capture men’s heart.” She smiles: “I’m sorry, I’m wrong, I mean guests.”
Wen Ren Xi doesn’t be angry, she just smiles. “I think Xia Tai Tai is too worried about this. I and Xia Xian Sheng are just friend. Moreover, when he comes over, he never drinks tea.”
“If Xia Tai Tai has no more important matter, I’m sorry I cannot accompany you any longer.” Wen Ren Xi stands up. “Oh right, Xia Tai Tai if you like our store’s tea, then you are welcomed to come over anytime. But next time please don’t call me out. After all I am not as leisure as you. I don’t have time to spare for trivial matter.”
Wen Ren Xi wants to leave but the other two women immediately stops her.
“If your teahouse is not bewitched, how can Cheng Xi be so happy that he forgets about his wife? Wen Ren Xiao Jie, I heard that you and Jing Zong Zhang (Jing Yi) are not divorced yet? How can you go out and seduce another man? It’s not a good thing.”
“I also heard that Xia Tai Tai and Xia Xian Sheng are divorced. Oh, that I think I’m wrong to call you Xia Tai Tai. I should call you Lu Nu Shi (Madame Lu). You and Xia Xian Sheng are divorced. So even if I seduce him, it should be unrelated to you right?”
Xia’s ex-wife’s face turns pale, she stands up: “I just know that you are wild. I warn you, If you still dare to seduce Cheng Qi, I’ll not be polite to you !”
“Don’t think that a man you love will be loved by everyone. I am unrelated to your ex-husband. Please watch your own man closely don’t let him go out and make trouble for someone else.” Wen Ren Xi is unhappy that Xia Cheng Qi’s ex-wife keeps on bothering her these days.
In the beginning, Wen Ren Xi can ignore her but this has gone for quite some time.
“Please move.” Wen Ren Xi feels like she will lose her temper soon.
She wants to leave, but Xia’s ex-wife just looks at both middle-aged women. Both women immediately hold Wen Ren Xi’s arm and pulls her back to sit down. Everyone else starts to consider whether to act or not.
Ye Qing Xin’s bodyguards immediately want to act.
“What do you guys want to do?” A cold voice yells at both women. “Let her go!”
Su Yu Zuo comes inside, she helps Wen Ren Xi to break free from both women’s hold.
“No matter what she is Zong Zhang Fu Ren (Wife of the chief), you are just a mere reporter’s ex-wife, what do you want to do?” Su Yu Zuo mocks Xia’s ex-wife. “You have no ability to handle your own man and you want to act wildly. No wonder Xia Xian Sheng wants to get divorce with you. You are acting like a shrew. If I am a man, I also will not like you.”
“You…” Xia’s ex-wife’s face turns sour.
Su Yu Zuo is not wrong.
Xia’s ex-wife laughs when she suddenly remembers the recent gossip. “I didn’t expect that Jing Zong Zhang’s domestic education is so good that stepmother and daughter can interact well. It’s too admiring.”
“Don’t admire us. Later on, when your husband gets an affair and has a kid, you can remarried again with him, you can be a stepmother. You can educate your stepson step-daughter. You can be so friendly with her.
Su Yu Zuo holds Wen Ren Xi’s arm and acts like they are in good relationship.
“You—” Xia’s ex-wife’s face turns pale.
“You still want to be here, you want me to report you to the police?” Su Yu Zuo wants to kick them out. “Also, next time don’t let me see you here. You know that I was a poor woman that turns rich recently. I’m too spoiled. If I hit you and you are hurt, at most I’ll just be locked for several days. You are different, if you do something bad then Xia Xian Sheng will not want your kind of wife.”
After those troublesome women leave, Su Yu Zuo finally lets Wen Ren Xi’s arm go.
“You come to have a tea?” Wen Ren Xi knows about Su Yu Zuo’s ident.i.ty. She smiles politely but estranged.
“I come to say goodbye to you.” Su Yu Zuo looks at Wen Ren Xi. “I’m leaving.”
