The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 392: Chapter 391: Just Like This Again

After Yiyi and the others left, Wei Hanyou’s face immediately darkened, and he angrily slapped the table, saying, ”What exactly is the second daughter-in-law thinking? Speaking recklessly right in front of the younger generation, she’s simply embarrassed the Wei Family.”

Qu Yiqi said from the side, ”Alright, what’s the use of talking about this now? Wasn’t it you who suggested we all have dinner together to liven things up? Now look, it really did turn into a joke, and who knows if Yiyi will overthink it.”

Upon hearing his wife’s words, Wei Hanyou’s face worsened, and he finally looked directly at his son Wei Zixiao and said, ”Go call your uncle, I need to have a word with him.”

Wei Zixiao naturally turned around to call Wei Hanliang.

When Wei Hanliang arrived, he saw that his elder brother and sister-in-law were both present and couldn’t help but ask, ”Big Brother, what do you want to talk about?”

”Hanliang, I think you already know what I want to talk to you about. From now on, try to persuade your wife not to be so petty every day, and spend more time reading books when she’s idle. Did you see how she was today? I was embarrassed to face Yiyi and the others. They’re all the younger generation, and is she so eager for other people’s benefits? Her family truly has a hereditary knack for this.”

Speaking of this, he thought back to his brother’s marriage back then, it was simply forced on him like driving ducks onto the shelf. His wonderful brother ended up marrying such a woman.

Hearing Wei Hanyou’s words, Wei Hanliang sighed and said, ”I understand, I’ll talk to her properly.”

When Wei Hanliang arrived at his own room, he spoke to Zheng Xiangxin about this matter.

”From now on, spend more time reading books when you have the chance, and be more mindful when talking to others. Try not to offend people.”

Zheng Xiangxin was applying powder, and upon hearing Wei Hanliang’s words, she angrily threw what she was holding, ”What do you mean by this? Do you think I’m embarrassing you? And... what do you mean by not targeting others, when have I targeted anyone?”

Seeing Zheng Xiangxin’s righteous demeanor, Wei Hanliang couldn’t hold back his temper anymore.

”You should know what I’m talking about. You deliberately targeted Yiyi today, did you really think we couldn’t tell? You’re the only one still smug, making a little girl feel embarrassed.”

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xiangxin exploded.

”Wei Hanliang, I was just speaking the truth, and here you are upset. Haha... that girl called Yiyi isn’t your daughter, why are you so anxious? Even if you are worried, it’s useless, she is the daughter of your old flame and another man.”

Wei Hanliang was slow to react at first, but when he understood what Zheng Xiangxin was saying, his face was full of disbelief.

”What nonsense are you talking about?”

Zheng Xiangxin seemed completely aware.

”Why, did I hit the nail on the head? You thought you hid it well, but I still found out. Isn’t Yiyi’s mother the woman you rescued back then? Tell me, do you still have feelings for her? No wonder you were reluctant to marry me back then, turns out there was already someone in your heart.”

”Where did you hear such rumors? I indeed helped her back then, but we only met a couple of times, where is there any affair? Furthermore, Yiyi’s mother didn’t even know it was me who saved her back then, so what exactly do you imagine?”

Seeing Wei Hanliang still not admitting it, Zheng Xiangxin felt angrier.

”Don’t think that I’ll believe you if you say this. Don’t try to fool me. Your heart is with that woman, and that’s why you’ve been indifferent to me all these years. We’re such long-time spouses, but tell me, am I in your heart?” At this point, Zheng Xiangxin seemed somewhat hysterical.

In fact, she really likes Wei Hanliang, but she’s always known that the man in front of her doesn’t have her in his heart. Even though they are married, the distance between them still exists.

Moreover, Wei Hanliang’s position is rising, and the people he contacts are becoming more formidable. She lives every day in fear, worried they might reach the end any day. Plus, whenever she meets those wives of certain people, she feels incompatible with them. All those people look down on her, so she lives more and more tired, hating that her husband still has a heart for another woman.

Listening to Zheng Xiangxin’s words, Wei Hanliang felt somewhat weary.

From the beginning, proper communication between them was difficult. They don’t even have common topics, and whenever something happens, she throws a fit without reason. It’s happening again this time, without even thinking properly about some gossip she heard, she directly targeted Yiyi, leaving him speechless.

”Stop being unreasonable. Mrs. Ding Yuejun and I are completely clear, and I don’t hold any feelings for her. I only remembered her when I saw her and her daughter last time, so stop overthinking. Now, can you tell me from where you heard those rumors?”

Wei Hanliang instinctively felt that this matter was not simple, suspecting whether it was his political rivals trying to attack his personal conduct, so he had to be cautious.

But Zheng Xiangxin didn’t believe a single word, she directly snorted coldly and said, ”I’ll believe you when hell freezes over.” After saying that, she stormed out in anger.

Seeing her like this, Wei Hanliang furrowed his brows tightly, his eyes full of helplessness and exhaustion.

This wasn’t the first time they’d encountered such a thing. Whenever he spoke a word more to another woman, Zheng Xiangxin would feel he liked the other woman. He was at a loss for words, not knowing how much longer he could endure.

On the other side, Yiyi and the others parted ways at the intersection, Gu Tingyu naturally took Yiyi home, and Fan Qianshu escorted Fei Erya back.

”Yiyi, what are you thinking about?”

Gu Tingyu saw the girl walking absent-mindedly, so he asked.

On hearing the question, Yiyi couldn’t help but say, ”I’m thinking about Zhirong’s second aunt, why did Uncle Wei end up marrying such a woman?”

”Alright, stop worrying unnecessarily. Uncle Wei has lived through all these years, he doesn’t need you to worry about him, and besides, maybe Uncle Wei likes her that way.”

Upon hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but shiver, she really couldn’t imagine someone genuinely liking Zheng Xiangxin that way, ”Alright, let’s not talk about them anymore, better hurry home.”

When Yiyi got home, Ding Yuejun hadn’t returned yet, so she and Gu Tingyu sat with Old Master Ding and chatted.

”How was your visit to the Wei Family today, did you have fun?”

Upon hearing Old Master Ding’s words, Yiyi couldn’t help but shake her head and said, ”It was alright, just like that.”

Seeing Yiyi’s expression, Old Master Ding immediately asked, ”What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
