After Liu Rui got the news from Sun Mingjie, she was bewildered for a few days, and then she couldn’t help but turn towards the courtyard. Until a few days later, she finally saw the wife of Xiang Weilai that Sun Mingjie ntioned. That person was leading the Li family’s child, Little Fatty, out of the courtyard, and the two seed very close, talking and laughing as they went.
Watching the woman from a distance, Liu Rui felt an indescribable sourness in her heart. Even though she had already let go over the years, she still couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable when she heard the news.
Xiang Weilai had married again, and then had a child. Everything happened so quickly, yet naturally, as if she was the only one lingering in place.
She stood by the roadside and watched for a long ti until the people were out of sight. Liu Rui took a deep breath before striding away.
Her marriage with Sun Mingjie finally ended in divorce, and it didn’t cause any special reaction in the courtyard. After all, since Liu Rui married in, she had mostly stayed away from the Sun Family, and most people weren’t optimistic about the marriage. Now that they were divorced, people in the courtyard found it quite normal.
However, what shocked people in the courtyard was that Liu Rui got remarried imdiately after the divorce.
The speed of this flash marriage left everyone speechless.
A few days later, Liu Wujiang retired from the army, and the Liu family moved out of the courtyard, completely cutting ties with the people there.
Over the years, the Sun Family had bowed and scraped to the Liu Family, but unexpectedly ended up with such a result.
Sun’s father was gloomy every day, while Sun’s mother watched her grandson every day, cursing him yet feeling sorry for him, not knowing what to do with the child.
Sun Mingjie, on the other hand, went out drinking alone after work every day, only returning ho late at night, and going to work the next day still drunk.
His situation was unacceptable in the army, and before long he was reprimanded by his superiors. After this, Sun Mingjie regained so spirit, but he seed to have aged significantly overnight.
It wasn’t until this ti that Ye Qian, who hadn’t been heard from, appeared. She was fashionably dressed, flaunting herself like a lady of wealth in front of those she used to know.
Ye Qian suddenly showed up like this, and naturally, Ye Ling was aware. It wasn’t long before she also found out that Ye Qian was with an older real estate businessman.
The real estate businessman was old enough to be Ye Qian’s father, but Ye Qian didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she was smug and even ca to the courtyard to find Ye Ling.
Talking about how well she was doing and how good her husband was to her, Ye Ling just listened quietly, as if watching a joke, without saying much. In the end, Ye Qian ca in with full montum but left dejectedly.
Only when she escorted Ye Qian to the door did Ye Ling speak, "If you have the ti to talk here, you’d better go back to our hotown and visit mom. She’s been having a bad ti these past two years, going to dad every day causing trouble and tarnishing her reputation."
Before Ye Qian could reply, Ye Ling continued, "Oh, and there’s another thing, you know Si Daochen, right? He cared a lot about you back then. Now he’s retired and gone back to our hotown, and I’ve heard that he’s the one taking care of mom in the village. I guess you still have feelings for him, right? Take so ti to go back and see. He’s single now; Zhang Zhenlian divorced him and remarried. I heard she already has a child who’s two or three years old."
"Why are you telling about him? I have nothing to do with him?" Ye Qian didn’t care.
Ye Ling smiled faintly, "What I an is look at the people connected to you, has any of them ended well? You’ve reached this point today, maybe you think it’s great, but life is what you make of it. We are sisters after all, and I’ll leave you with so sincere advice: Don’t ruin yourself."
Ye Qian’s face turned cold, "I handle my own affairs, I decide my own path. I don’t need you to preach to here. Who do you think you are? You say we’re sisters, but have you ever helped with anything? Don’t pretend to give face now with your false sincerity."
"That’s how it is between us. You never saw as a sister, and I never saw you as a sister. However you treated , that’s how I’ll treat you, without blaming each other for doing things wrong." Ye Ling looked distantly as Shen Bin returned, glanced one more ti at Ye Qian, "Back then, you and Shen Bin didn’t have no chance, but what did you do? You didn’t know Shen Bin’s real status and looked down on him for being a divorcee from the countryside. The opportunity was there for you, but you didn’t cherish it, and now you bla others. That’s you; it’s always soone else’s fault."
Before the two could say more, Shen Bin had already walked up to them. When he saw Ye Qian, he didn’t show much reaction, just a cold nod, as a greeting. This was only for Ye Ling’s sake; otherwise, he wouldn’t have acknowledged Ye Qian at all.
"Isn’t tomorrow a day off? Just right, Sui Gang and the others are back. We should go see them." Shen Bin turned his head to speak with Ye Ling.
Hearing that Sui Gang was back, Ye Ling smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I’ll tell mom in a while; we can have mom bring Little Fatty tomorrow."
"Zhao Guodong and the group are also going. The matter between Sui Gang and Yang Hui is all a ss. It’s perfect for everyone to et and discuss," Shen Bin shared his thought.
Ye Qian just stood aside watching the sweet interaction between the couple, feeling her heart sour over and over.
Once, she had left disheartened; coming back like this now, to everyone here, was like looking down on herself.
Biting her lip, Ye Qian turned around and left swiftly.
Watching Ye Qian’s departing back, Ye Ling shook her head at Shen Bin. Once inside, Ye Ling sighed as she ca out.
"I thought her determination would amount to sothing? I didn’t expect it to end like this." Over these years, Ye Ling had co to terms with things. Although she didn’t have a good relationship with Ye Qian, of course, she still hoped for the best for Ye Qian. She just didn’t expect Ye Qian would always choose the wrong path.
"Her own affairs, she can manage herself. She’s not a child anymore, so don’t worry about her." Shen Bin wrapped his arms around his wife. Now, he was already a commander, having quickly climbed the ranks because of so achievents he had made in these two years.
Ye Ling nodded without saying anything, and the couple went to bed early to prepare to et Sui Gang and the others the next day.
