The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 534: Chapter 533: She Wasn’t Wrong

?

When Mrs. Zeng finished packing her luggage, she just sat there sighing nonstop.

”Unfilial son, unfilial son, such a good opportunity right in front of him and he won’t grab it. What on earth is he thinking? What’s so good about that Houshan Town anyway? Shangjing is so prosperous—how can he be so stupid? It must be Mo Xiaohong whispering in his ear at night, that’s why he’s in such a rush to go back.”

Father Zeng glared at Mrs. Zeng and said, ”Enough, what’s the point of talking about this now? We’re going back this afternoon anyway. Besides, Houshan Town isn’t that bad. Weren’t we living quite happily there before?”

”What do you know? Forget it, forget it, there’s no time to talk about this now anyway.”

Father Zeng nodded in agreement and said, ”Exactly, why harp on it now? If you really don’t go back, I think our son is truly going to cut ties with us. Think it over properly. We only have one son. Do you really want to end up with no one to rely on in your old age?”

”Alright, alright, I get it.”

Mrs. Zeng muttered reluctantly, and once she’d finished tidying up, she planned to go look for Ding Yuejun. Even if they were leaving, the Ding Family was so rich; they ought to give them a proper send-off.

When Mrs. Zeng went over, she saw Ding Yuejun talking to the man who had just come by as a guest. She tiptoed over, quietly listening in out of curiosity.

In fact, one of the reasons Wei Hanliang came over today was because of Ding Yuejun. He hadn’t seen her for quite a while. ”How have you been lately?”

Ding Yuejun smiled and said, ”Pretty good.”

”I heard Yiyi was in danger some time ago. I’m really sorry. I was out of town on a business trip then and couldn’t make it over in time.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun gave him a slightly puzzled look, then quickly said, ”It’s fine, Tingyu got there in time, and Yiyi’s okay.”

”That’s good. If anything comes up next time, you can come to me anytime.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun was even more surprised. What did Wei Hanliang mean by that? The two of them didn’t seem to be that close yet. Still, she smiled and thanked him, ”Okay, then thank you.”

After that, Wei Hanliang moved on to another topic.

”I heard your clothing store has started making menswear. Do you have time today? How about I go by your shop later and order two sets?”

Yiyi chuckled and said, ”Do you know what kind of menswear our shop is doing? It might not really match your usual style.”

”I know what it looks like—kind of old-style, traditional clothing. I might not be able to wear it to work, but I can still wear it at home.”

This time, even Ding Yuejun was left with nothing to say. ”Alright then, but I’m a bit busy this afternoon, so how about tomorrow instead?”

Mo Xiaohong’s family was leaving this afternoon, and she had to go see them off with Yiyi, so she naturally didn’t have time.

When Wei Hanliang heard this, he quickly said, ”Sure, then I’ll just wait for you at the clothing store tomorrow morning.”

Ding Yuejun nodded and had just opened her mouth to speak when Mrs. Zeng suddenly jumped out.

”Yue Jun, you’re chatting here, huh?”

As she spoke, she gave Wei Hanliang a thorough once-over, and when she caught the way he was looking at Ding Yuejun, she knew what was going on. This man liked Ding Yuejun too.

She hadn’t expected that a divorced woman like Ding Yuejun, after coming to Shangjing, not only recognized her wealthy, powerful biological father, but also attracted so many outstanding men. They were about the same age, yet their lives couldn’t be more different.

Thinking again of how her son and daughter-in-law were dead set on going back, the anger in Mrs. Zeng’s chest flared up all at once. She immediately said, ”Yue Jun, you sure have a lot of people coming to see you. That Mr. Huang was here several times already yesterday. He likes you so much, always chasing after you. And now today there’s another such excellent man. I think he’s pretty good too.”

”But let me give you a word of advice: you can’t keep stringing both sides along, being all sticky with both. You should hurry up and make up your mind. I see how much Mr. Huang likes you—if you don’t like him, then don’t keep him dangling.”

At those words, Ding Yuejun’s expression darkened immediately. She hadn’t expected Mrs. Zeng to suddenly pop out and say something like that, blatantly airing her private affairs in front of an outsider.

And when Wei Hanliang heard this, his eyes flickered.

”Mr. Huang... is that the Hong Kong businessman, Huang Yanquan?”

Before Ding Yuejun could say anything, Mrs. Zeng nodded right beside them and said, ”Yes, that Mr. Huang is called Huang Yanquan. He’s absolutely crazy about Yue Jun. Even though he’s so much younger than her, he doesn’t care at all. I think you like Yue Jun too, right? Yue Jun is so great, of course lots of people like her. So you’d better work hard.”

She just wanted the man in front of her to see how improper Ding Yuejun supposedly was, with so many men chasing after her. Any man would look down on her, right? Surely this one would back off as well.

Why should someone like Ding Yuejun have so many high-quality men chasing her? She was not pleased at all. In her eyes, Ding Yuejun and her ex-husband were a better match. These outstanding men ought to be going after pretty young girls instead.

Seeing that she’d said everything she wanted to say, Mrs. Zeng hurried back to her own courtyard.

She didn’t mention any grand send-off anymore either. She’d just sabotaged one of Ding Yuejun’s matters; the other woman was probably holding a grudge already, so she wisely slipped away.

Meanwhile, Ding Yuejun stood there, too furious to speak.

She’d always known Mrs. Zeng had no sense of boundaries and couldn’t be relied on, but she hadn’t expected her to be this outrageous.

Still, there was one thing Mrs. Zeng hadn’t lied about—Huang Yanquan did indeed like her. She couldn’t refute that, so she took a deep breath, forced down the anger in her chest, and then turned to Wei Hanliang. ”That was my eldest daughter’s mother-in-law. She’s not very reliable when she talks. Don’t mind her.”

”Eldest daughter? So besides Yiyi, you have another daughter?”

Ding Yuejun shook her head and said, ”I only have Yiyi. The ’eldest daughter’ she means is my ex-husband’s daughter. But she’s been close to me since she was little and cut ties with my ex-husband’s side long ago, so she’s my daughter too. This time their whole family came to Shangjing for a trip.”

Wei Hanliang nodded, having understood.

But Ding Yuejun truly felt embarrassed. Just now, Mrs. Zeng had even been spouting nonsense about Wei Hanliang liking her, so she hurried to apologize.

”Actually... she wasn’t wrong. I like you. I have a really good feeling about you.”

Wei Hanliang hadn’t originally planned to say this yet, but once he learned that Huang Yanquan liked Yue Jun too, he got a little anxious. So other people had already noticed how wonderful Yue Jun was; he needed to pick up the pace.

”What...”

When she heard that, Ding Yuejun could hardly believe her ears and felt like she must have misheard him.
