However, the mont she spoke, her eyes turned red, and it was clear to see the glimr of tears.
"If you are arguing with for this reason, then there’s no need to be so angry." Xiao Jin’s face still showed no emotion: "Mr. Davis said he wouldn’t take Jian away."
"What? What did he say?"
Not taking Jian away? Shen Yun could hardly believe it; she hadn’t forgotten what Austin said yesterday when he left the Shen family, threatening to take legal action to take Jian away from her.
A sudden change of heart today—could it be that he’s worried his family disagrees?
This thought occurred because Mrs. Shen never told Shen Yun any of what Austin had said to her, like the fact that he hadn’t remarried yet.
Xiao Jin looked at Shen Yun suspiciously: "Didn’t hear clearly?" Was he not clear enough?
"He... he said yesterday that he would take legal asures to take Jian away, but today he changed his mind. Surely he’s regretting again, worried his family wouldn’t agree." Shen Yun said coldly what she was thinking.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin shook his head silently and said, "You’re overthinking it. It’s because Jian doesn’t want to leave with his dad, and Mr. Davis respected Jian’s wishes and didn’t force it.
However, Mr. Davis asked to convey a ssage to you: if he finds out that you continue to ignore Jian and don’t care about his growth, then the next ti he appears, it will be to et you in court."
"How am I not caring about Jian?"
Shen Yun would never admit that she ignored Jian, her son, in daily life.
"Are you sure you’ve cared?" Xiao Jin glanced at Shen Yun, walked behind the desk, and sat down: "How much of a mother’s duty have you fulfilled towards Jian, or even Xiao Xuan, do you have any idea?"
"I’m busy with work."
Her face flushed, but Shen Yun didn’t forget to argue and clear herself: "With the nature of my work, being able to take two days off a month is already good, yet even those two days off are a luxury for ; you know this very well.
And we are a couple. Since I’m busy with work, the responsibility of taking care of the children falls more on you. Don’t tell you regret it now!"
"Yes, you are busy with work, and it’s rare for you to have a vacation, but during those vacations, have you ever spared even the slightest bit of thought for the children?"
As for this marriage, he couldn’t say he regretted it much, but there was also nothing to be happy about—marrying her was simply for the basic purpose of two people living together.
Their relationship was suitable.
One brought along a son after a divorce, and one lost a spouse and had a daughter.
Such a restructured family was nothing out of the ordinary.
Shen Yun was left blushing by Xiao Jin’s words. She looked at Xiao Jin with a complicated gaze for a mont, said nothing, and finally turned to walk towards the study door.
But at the mont of opening the study door, she turned back to Xiao Jin, with an inquisitive look in her eyes, asking: "Does Professor Luo have a blood relation with any of your family?"
Her heart skipped a beat, but Xiao Jin remained calm on the surface: "Why do you ask?"
"Don’t you think Professor Luo’s eldest son looks a lot like you? If Professor Luo has no close blood relation with your family, then it’s his ex-wife who is related to your family. Otherwise, Professor Luo’s eldest son wouldn’t look so much like you."
"It’s not uncommon for unrelated people to look alike in any country."
"It’s indeed not unusual, but isn’t that child looking so much like you a bit too coincidental? Our two families live in the sa courtyard, I’m colleagues with Professor Luo, and you once were with that Comrade Kang who ran away with a wild man..."
"Where are your manners?"
Xiao Jin interrupted Shen Yun, his expression cold: "Since when did Comrade Kang run away with soone? Comrade Shen Yun, you’d better be clear, you can’t speak without investigation, Comrade Kang was sent abroad for further studies by the state, for three years, and when Comrade Kang returns, if he hears what you said today, what do you think he’ll do?"
"Sent abroad for further studies, only fools would believe that!"
Shen Yun didn’t believe a word.
"You probably don’t know yet, but it’s already spread in the courtyard that Comrade Kang had triplets abroad. Previously, Comrade Kang’s parents were absent from the courtyard for two months; they went abroad to look after their daughter during her confinent period."
As Xiao Jin’s voice fell, Shen Yun’s eyes widened, looking utterly stunned. After a while, she regained composure and imdiately said, "I don’t believe it!"
"Go and ask around the courtyard yourself."
Xiao Jin’s tone was light, removing his gaze from Shen Yun.
"I don’t believe it..."
Shaking her head, Shen Yun’s figure vanished from the study door, and she returned to the master bedroom, dazed, sitting by the bed.
How is this possible?
If that woman really had triplets abroad, it ans she was pregnant before going abroad, does it an that in those two months, Luo Yanqing was not at ho was because he went abroad to be with that woman during her confinent?
As she thought about this, Shen Yun couldn’t help feeling jealous, her heart filled with sourness.
The marriage that should have been hers, why did it end up belonging to soone nad Kang? If... if she were Luo Yanqing’s wife, then it would have been Shen Yun who gave birth to the triplets...
Unknowingly, her face beca wet with tears.
Shen Yun suddenly laughed, the laughter both sour and bitter. She didn’t know why she still hadn’t let go of that obsession in her heart, knowing it was impossible long ago, and even though her life had been stable for years, why, as soon as she saw a slight gap, she thought she had a chance?
Could she be possessed?
...
Abroad.
Jiang family estate.
"Is this for Dad?"
Seeing his beloved daughter hand him a stack of drawings, Jiang Boya was full of curiosity.
Beside him, Jiang Hongfa was as well.
"Yes."
Kang Li smiled and nodded: "Take a look."
"Alright, Dad will..." Before he finished his sentence and with just a glance at the first page, Jiang Boya widened his eyes in surprise: "Lili...this, this...couldn’t this be your work?"
Quickly flipping through the other drawings, Jiang Boya beca more and more astonished, his eyes full of disbelief.
"I drew them."
Kang Li did not deny it.
"But this has nothing to do with your major." Jiang Boya handed the drawings to Jiang Hongfa, staring directly at his beloved daughter Kang Li: "Could it be that you are self-taught?"
Seeing Kang Li nod, Jiang Boya was instantly filled with overwhelming pride: "My daughter is amazing, not only pursuing two Ph.D. degrees but also choosing a third subject to study. Incredible, truly incredible! Dad is far inferior to you!"
"You know, I have a photographic mory, learning is simple for ; it’s just about what I want to learn, there’s nothing I can’t comprehend."
Kang Li’s bright and beautiful eyes were full of joy, she said: "I’m delighted that you are setting up a factory and company dostically. These drawings are my gift to you; you can show them to your company’s research and developnt departnt,
and if there are no issues, proceed to production. I believe it won’t be long before our country’s own brand of ho appliances not only captures a large dostic market but also has a place in the international market."
Jiang’s operates in various industries, including personal care and ho appliances.
After assessing the dostic market, Jiang Boya aid to extend the company’s market to support national developnt.
As for the situation abroad, it will remain mostly unchanged in the future.
