Chapter 998: Chapter 998: Does She Want to Live at Elder Brother He’s Place? Chapter 998: Chapter 998: Does She Want to Live at Elder Brother He’s Place? Though Yu Fei knew about their relationship, he was quite sensible and didn’t expose Shen Mianmian and He Nan’s affairs. For two consecutive days, Shen Mianmian kept an eye on entertainnt news.
When she saw that there was nothing about her and He Nan in the newspapers, she thought to herself that Yu Fei might still be redeemable, knowing at least what to do and what not to do, just a bit of a coward, that’s all.
After resting for two days, Shen Mianmian felt much better. Having eaten lunch and with the weather being hot, she quietly sat under a big tree in the yard reading a book. Yang Xiaoxi ran out and bought a big waterlon back, sliced it in half, and each held one half to dig in and eat. Right in the middle of their snack, the phone in the house rang. It was Xiaocui calling, who, upon hearing Shen Mianmian’s voice, said,
“Mianmian, Zhang Qian got divorced.”
Shen Mianmian was sowhat surprised, but after a mont of thought, it seed like an expected turn of events. Previously Zhang Qian had conflicts with her in-laws, having not gone back for the new year, and it was clear that her husband was a mama’s boy who treated Zhang Qian quite ordinarily.
Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law living together for a long ti naturally leads to nurous conflicts. Without the husband diating, the conflicts would only grow. Zhang Qian had a job and her own inco; after being oppressed for so long, she naturally developed a rebellious spirit, and the inevitable result was divorce.
She guessed that even with the divorce, Zhang Qian’s in-laws wouldn’t be frightened, holding a sense of superiority, feeling as if Zhang Qian had married above her station.
Thinking it over, Shen Mianmian asked, “Where is she staying now?”
Xiaocui inwardly exclaid at Mianmian’s intelligence, who had imdiately asked the key point, so she said, “Mianmian, I’m calling you specifically to talk about this. Zhang Qian said your place is big, there’s space, and since I’m living there alone, it wouldn’t be cramped with one more person, so she wanted to move in. Since it’s He Nan’s house, I definitely can’t agree to it, so she said she’d call you herself to discuss it. But I didn’t want to put you in a difficult position by giving her your number.”
The purpose of making this call was to ask for Shen Mianmian’s opinion. If Shen Mianmian agreed to let her stay, Xiaocui wouldn’t say anything, but if not, then she would play the bad guy.
Shen Mianmian frowned slightly, “She wants to stay at He Nan’s place?”
To be honest, Shen Mianmian was reluctant. Zhang Qian was an employee, and she was treated as such. Familiarity couldn’t make her forget that boundary.
“Renting a place in the city doesn’t cost much per month. Let her rent a place for herself!”
Thinking of how long Zhang Qian had worked here and hadn’t done badly, and how difficult it must be for her being newly divorced and alone, she added, “Here’s what we’ll do: cover her rent from outside, as if we’re providing her accommodation.”
Xiaocui agreed to Shen Mianmian’s suggestion. Then, recalling sothing, she said, “Mianmian, Zhou Siyu ca back to get a visa, took Zhou Lanfang with her, and went abroad. It’s been almost a month since they left. I heard when she returned, she brought back a partner, a foreigner with skin as black as coal. The village is abuzz with gossip that the person is the son of a Tribal Chief and that his family is very rich.”
Xiaocui had not seen the man herself; this was just what people in the village were saying.
Shen Mianmian had been busy filming recently and hadn’t paid attention to these matters, but upon hearing Xiaocui’s words, she rembered Zhou Siyu’s situation.
