The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 711: Chapter 712: Your Ex-Wife Came Looking for You

The news of Shen Zhenhua’s divorce had already spread among his friends, and now when Sun Mei appeared, Shen Zhenhua’s friends were all shocked.

”Old Shen, your ex-wife has come looking for you.”

”She must be here to get back together with you, right? Who would’ve thought? You haven’t achieved much in your lifetime, and yet you still have a woman so devoted to you.”

”Old Shen must have something extraordinary. As the saying goes, women are like wolves at thirty and like tigers at forty. If he didn’t have something impressive, why would his ex-wife come looking for him?”

A few drinking buddies couldn’t help but tease after seeing Sun Mei.

If it were the previous Sun Mei, she would’ve grabbed Shen Zhenhua by the ear and scolded him. However, at this moment, she could only control her emotions. Even when teased, she had to smile and greet them.

Shen Zhenhua turned his head and saw Sun Mei’s face, looking impatient. He said, ”What do you want from me? We have no relationship anymore. Do you have any idea how comfortable and free I’ve been lately?”

Feeling Shen Zhenhua’s attitude, Sun Mei subconsciously gritted her teeth. She had hoped Shen Zhenhua would consider their past, but didn’t expect this kind of attitude from him.

Sun Mei would never understand Shen Zhenhua’s feelings.

From the day they got married, Shen Zhenhua had no dignity as a man in front of Sun Mei, always oppressed by her, living a particularly miserable life, barely even considered a man.

The past relationship?

In Shen Zhenhua’s eyes, that was a huge joke.

He never felt any affection from Sun Mei, so what past relationship was there to consider?

”Zhenhua, let’s find a place to talk.” Sun Mei said.

”Talk?” Shen Zhenhua looked at Sun Mei disdainfully and said, ”I have nothing to talk about with you. Get out immediately and don’t ruin my mood.”

These words made Sun Mei clench her fist instantly. The previous Shen Zhenhua would never have the courage to speak to her in such a tone. He was indeed more arrogant now.

Sun Mei really wanted to give Shen Zhenhua a lesson, but with her current status and position, she had long lost the qualifications to do so against Shen Zhenhua.

She was nothing now, just a woman who had been cast out by the Shen family.

Sun Mei sighed helplessly, turned around, and left.

”Old Shen, you’re finally living like a man now.”

”Previously, Sun Mei had you under her thumb, and we couldn’t stand it for a long time. Who’d have thought you could turn things around?”

”Old Shen is now the biggest winner among us. His family has become rich, and most importantly, he doesn’t have a wife now. He can drink as much as he wants, and live it up outside.”

”A man’s three greatest achievements in life: promote, get rich, and lose the wife. Even if you’re not an official, seeing your current situation makes us envious.”

The group of drinking buddies’ flattery made Shen Zhenhua feel a bit lightheaded, and he generously said, ”Look at you guys, just say it if you want me to treat you, no need to beat around the bush. Alright, I’m treating this time.”

”Old Shen is so generous.”

”Truly a wealthy man.”

”We’ll definitely treat you next time.”

Sun Mei didn’t leave immediately after leaving the restaurant. She was still waiting at the door.

Since she came, she couldn’t leave without success. More importantly, it was a matter of her life. Even if it required her to abandon her dignity and endure Shen Zhenhua trampling on it, Sun Mei had to do it.

The words of that driver were something Sun Mei never dared to question.

And if she wished to move back into the Mountain Villa and regain her former wealth and status, this was the only way.

Sun Mei wanted to regain everything she’d lost.

She also wanted to take all her hatred out on that unborn child of Su Changfeng!

By almost 11 o’clock, Sun Mei’s body had become stiff from the cold, and it was only then that Shen Zhenhua and the others walked out of the restaurant, shoulders wrapped around each other.

Sun Mei hid on the side, and when everyone else had taken taxis one after another, she hurriedly ran to Shen Zhenhua, supporting him.

”Who... are you?” Shen Zhenhua mumbled, barely able to stand, clearly drunk to the point of being unrecognizable.

Without responding, Sun Mei simply supported Shen Zhenhua, leading him to a nearby hotel.

The drunken Shen Zhenhua lay on the bed, feeling someone hugging him. Due to a man’s subconscious action, Shen Zhenhua held Sun Mei in his arms.

The next morning, when Shen Zhenhua woke up, he saw Sun Mei sleeping beside him.

With a pounding headache, Shen Zhenhua immediately sat up, waking Sun Mei with his movement. She actually got up directly on the bed, kneeling in front of Shen Zhenhua, her face full of pleading.

”Zhenhua, I’m begging you, just agree to remarry me. I know I was wrong. I want to return to the Shen family. Everything before was my fault, and I will definitely change. Please give me a chance to atone for my previous foolishness, okay?” Sun Mei cried miserably.

Shen Zhenhua’s disgust toward Sun Mei was heartfelt, stemming from the oppression he endured from her. Shen Zhenhua felt that since marrying Sun Mei, he had lost his dignity as a man.

All the past events were still fresh in Shen Zhenhua’s memory, and now that he was finally rid of Sun Mei, how could he be willing to remarry her?

”Hmph.” Shen Zhenhua sneered, showing no sympathy for Sun Mei, and said, ”You should stop dreaming. I definitely won’t remarry you. I’ve had enough of your insults. Do you really think I might give you any chance?”

Sun Mei wiped her tears, putting on a pitiful face, and said, ”Are you really that heartless? We’ve been married for so many years, can’t you at least consider a bit of the past?”

The saying goes, pitiful people must have some detestable aspect. More importantly, Sun Mei wasn’t truly that pitiful. Her wish to return to the Shen family wasn’t simply to remarry Shen Zhenhua, but to reclaim everything.

But fortunately, Shen Zhenhua wasn’t interested in her at all. Even thinking about possibly having done something with Sun Mei last night made Shen Zhenhua feel disgusted.

”Sun Mei, the reason you’re in this situation now is entirely because of your own doing. Don’t blame me for being so cruel to you now when you treated me so cruelly before.” With that, Shen Zhenhua got off the bed, intending to dress quickly and leave.

Sun Mei hugged Shen Zhenhua’s leg, not wanting him to leave, crying pitifully, ”Zhenhua, Zhenhua, I’m begging you, don’t go, please don’t go. Everything I have has been taken away. I don’t want to live like this anymore. Please give me one chance, I promise I’ll cherish it. Please believe me.”
