Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1167: Chapter 1168: Every Man for Himself

Yu Chunyu was shocked to see how old Zou Xiaoling had become, but she dared not show her shock, fearing it would touch upon the inferiority and anger deep within Zou Xiaoling’s heart.

Yes, Yu Chunyu had always felt that Zou Xiaoling would be angry, and that this anger would be directed at her.

During this period, she had always avoided Zou Xiaoling, but occasionally, from a distance, she saw Zou Xiaoling, who seemed not to notice her at all.

Now that Zou Xiaoling still greeted her so calmly, could it be that she really held no resentment towards her?

”Can we find a place to talk? Chun Yu, here in Peace Town I can’t find anyone to talk to about my heart, I’ve been so tired these days, so I’m trying to find a way out,” Zou Xiaoling showed Yu Chunyu a helpless expression like the ones she used to give when in need, ”but now there’s no one to give me advice, I really don’t know what to do.”

Seeing Zou Xiaoling’s expression made Yu Chunyu think she was indeed weak and helpless.

She really couldn’t see any sign that Zou Xiaoling bore any resentment towards her.

”Xiaoling, that, is Chiang Baohe not treating you well?”

”He’s been okay to me. At first, I couldn’t bear it and wanted to die, but you know, he’s always been rather fond of me, so after I married him, he has been pretty decent to me, it’s just that I don’t know why, we haven’t had any children, so my in-laws are quite unhappy with me...”

Seeing that Zou Xiaoling spoke to her about these problems, Yu Chunyu truly felt relieved.

It seemed that Zou Xiaoling later accepted her fate and genuinely considered Chiang Baohe as her man, too bad she couldn’t have children, otherwise she might even bring her children to talk about family matters with her?

As Yu Chunyu breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt profound disdain for Zou Xiaoling.

”Let’s find a place to sit then, how about the tea house?”

Zou Xiaoling did not expect Yu Chunyu to be so easy to talk to, and delightedly said, ”Not the tea house, I’m afraid someone will see us and tell my mother-in-law, then she’ll definitely scold me again.”

”Then where should we go? Maybe to my sister’s store?”

”Let’s not go there either, I always feel a bit embarrassed to see people now. I’ve rented an old house, thinking about a backup plan for the future. How about we go there? You can familiarize yourself with the place, so it’ll be easier to find me later.”

”Okay then.”

Yu Chunyu truly hadn’t thought it through much.

Fearing that walking back through No. 17 would remind Yu Chunyu of that particular day and arouse her suspicions, Zou Xiaoling deliberately took her around the other side, weaving through another narrow alley.

Zou Xiaoling, having lived here with Chiang Baohe for so long, knew this little area even better than Yu Chunyu.

The instant Yu Chunyu followed her into that house, she still felt a strange sensation, but she didn’t give it much thought.

After all, Zou Xiaoling had always been too honest, and Yu Chunyu felt that she knew Zou Xiaoling well, not suspecting her of doing anything too outrageous.

”I haven’t really tidied the other rooms; let’s go to the bedroom,” Zou Xiaoling led her inside.

”How much are you paying for this place? Do you still have money?” Yu Chunyu asked as she walked inside.

Suddenly, Zou Xiaoling forcefully pushed her from behind into the room.

Yu Chunyu crashed into the room and fell to the floor.

The door slammed shut with a bang.

”Heh heh heh.”

Hearing this laugh, Yu Chunyu was startled and looked towards the bed, meeting Chiang Baohe’s sinister one-eyed gaze.

She instantly realized something, screamed, and scrambled up, rushing towards the door.
