Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 517: Making the Choice Most Beneficial to Oneself

Bai Aiwen also knew she couldn’t keep going like this and forced herself to sit up.

Xinyan poured the porridge into Bai Aiwen’s own enal cup: "The temperature is just right. Eat more, there’s more in the thermos."

ntioning the thermos, Xinyan thought of the supplies in her space and planned to take so ti to go to the black market these days. It would only be in these few years that those things would still be in short supply; a few years later, they wouldn’t be so sought after.

Bai Aiwen’s eyes turned red instantly: "Okay."

After she spoke, she looked up at Cui Haili: "Sister Haili, please help ask for another half-day off. I’ll go back to class in the afternoon."

Cui Haili, seeing her regain her spirits, felt a sense of relief: "Okay."

The Zeng Family was indeed efficient; by noon, Jiang Peiqin received a call, and the matter of Bai Aiwen’s previous fiancé was also investigated clearly.

The story was very clichéd, but it was clear that Xie Shanyuan was indeed sched against, yet he didn’t seem to resist strongly and just accepted it.

Xie Shanyuan was attending a provincial community college, working hard and aspiring to make a na for himself and bring honor to his family.

The reason for calling off the engagent with Bai Aiwen was because the daughter of a deputy principal at the school was driven back to her parents’ ho by her husband’s family. The reason was that after three years of marriage, she had two daughters.

The mother-in-law said she was cutting off the husband’s family’s lineage and forced the son to divorce the daughter-in-law. To have a grandson, she even sched against her own son, leading him into an affair.

The deputy principal’s daughter, being a strong character, upon discovering this, directly beat that woman and her mother-in-law, causing a scene, and then jumped into a lake.

She happened to be saved by Xie Shanyuan, who was passing by.

Her mother-in-law, after this incident, felt that no matter what, she could no longer keep this daughter-in-law. Now that her son and the woman she favored were already together, the marriage had to be divorced no matter what.

The deputy principal’s family was also furious, feeling that at first, they were really blind to have found such a family for their daughter. After she woke up, they sought her opinion.

They amicably divorced, each took one daughter, and made the husband compensate one thousand yuan, bringing the matter to a close and smoothly processing the divorce paperwork.

Initially, the deputy principal’s daughter intended to take both children, but her family disagreed, not wanting her to waste her pri years on the children. Being divorced made it hard enough to find a good family, let alone carrying a daughter, so how could they agree to let her take both daughters?

Thinking of her situation, she didn’t want the man to live comfortably, so she left the elder daughter with the man.

Once the formalities were done, rumors started circulating in the school housing area about the deputy principal’s daughter and Xie Shanyuan, which intensified and even affected his studies.

It was obvious soone was stirring things up behind the scenes. The deputy principal initially wanted to suppress the matter but was enlightened by his wife’s words.

He then approached Xie Shanyuan, explained the reason for finding him, and promised tempting conditions while also employing so small threats.

Thus, after weighing the pros and cons, Xie Shanyuan also realized that if he didn’t agree, his situation at the school would be very difficult. To ensure his future graduation assignnt would secure a place in the provincial capital, he compromised.

He thought it over carefully and realized that even though Bai Aiwen graduated from a prestigious school, after graduation, she’d have to climb the ladder step by step. Both of them coming from rural backgrounds without connections or backing, achieving any significant status would be incredibly difficult.

Now that he couldn’t disentangle himself, he might as well go with the flow and make the choice most advantageous to himself.

He then took leave from the school, went ho, and explained the pros and cons of the situation to his parents in detail. Xie’s parents felt guilty, but upon considering their son’s words,

they chose their son’s future over feeling sorry for the Bai Family, leading to their visit to annul the engagent with the Bai Family.

When Jiang Peiqin relayed the investigation results from the Zeng Family to Bai Aiwen, after a mont of daze, Bai Aiwen actually shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I really was naive; it turns out three years of feelings ant nothing."
