Chapter 419: Chapter 414 Not Going to Haishi

Apologizing to my wife and swallowing my pride isn’t sothing I’ve never done before; there’s no sha in that.

Xie Yanhai dragged his feet to the bed, just about to sit next to Li Yun, when he heard a cold snort, “You’re blocking the light.”

Then she added coldly, “There’s so much space in the room, do you really have to squeeze over here?”

If I don’t squeeze over here, won’t you get even angrier?

Xie Yanhai was also out of patience because he rembered what Jiajia had said to him before she went back to her room, “Uncle, you’ve really learned so skills, making your own family uncomfortable because of an outsider and even causing a divorce. If you really get divorced, who would want an old man like you?”

With that look of disdain on her face, he even forgot to defend himself. Who’s causing a divorce? Your aunt ntioned divorce, not . Why don’t you say it was her, not ?

Thinking about it, Xie Yanhai felt very frustrated, but no matter what, he realized today that he had indeed done sothing wrong.

Thinking about the feelings and reputations of others, considering the opinions and remarks of outsiders, but never once did I think about my wife’s dignity and grievances.

“So… I know I was wrong… can you not look at

with that kind of eyes? I’m sincerely trying to apologize.”

Li Yun lifted her eyelids and glanced at him, ignored him, and continued to read her book.

Silence is also a good sign, Xie Yanhai felt encouraged and moved closer to Li Yun, whispering, “I’ve reflected deeply this afternoon and decided to take leave after Labor Day, I’ll take a month off, and won’t go back until those interns leave…”

“So you’re feeling guilty now?”

Reflected deeply? You’re fooling ghosts.

Xie Yanhai:…

What guilt do I have, when employing Jiang Yan’s tactic of keeping a certain distance from the people who started the rumors?

But it seems that tactic isn’t working here.

Xie Yanhai’s eyes darted around, his head leaning in, but before he could get too close, Li Yun pushed him away and said with disdain, “I’m not deaf, why do you need to be so close?”

Fine, if you don’t want

close, I won’t lean in.

But he didn’t back away; he sat beside her legs and sighed, “Don’t you think this rumor ca out a little too coincidentally? I told you before, our school is going to appoint a new vice principal before the sumr holiday. Although I’m not keen on it, the principal’s preferred candidate is . But now, suddenly this rumor about my personal life… Do you think the principal will still consider ?”

Li Yun, although she didn’t look up, her expression clearly showed she was pondering.

Xie Yanhai sighed at his own sudden cleverness, ah, how co I didn’t think of this earlier?

Although it was all baseless, bringing it up as an argunt was quite persuasive; after all, the selection of a vice principal was real, but it was highly likely that soone would be transferred from the county, not chosen from their school.

But Li Yun didn’t know these details.

“Is it Wang who wants to compete with you for the vice principal position?”

Li Yun rembered that at the beginning, it was Wang’s wife who hesitated to tell her about Xie Yanhai’s alleged affair with an intern. They were colleagues but didn’t teach the sa grade, yet she made a point of coming to their office to tell her this.

Looking at it now, she clearly had no good intentions.

Xie Yanhai indeed didn’t get along with Wang, but they had both been too angry to consider this angle earlier. Now, in a roundabout way, Xie Yanhai was irritated to the point of itching teeth, cursing, “You, Wang Baldy! You can’t beat

in the school, so you resort to underhanded tricks on won, have you no sha at all?”

Righteous indignation fueled his tirade against Wang and his wife; he thought after venting Li Yun would calm down, yet when he took off his clothes to get into bed, he was unexpectedly kicked off with a swift kick.

Caught off guard, Xie Yanhai went “thud”, landing on his butt from the bed more than half a ter high, numbing his pelvis.

“Your blanket is on the couch, where are you going?”

After speaking, Li Yun sneered, “And you still have the nerve to criticize others. If you ever considered , put yourself in my shoes, would you have fallen for soone else’s trick?”

Xie Yanhai’s face choked up, and he didn’t say a word as he got up from the ground with a disheveled look and went to the living room.

Li Yun waited for him to leave, then imdiately turned off the light and lay down.

There was no conversation all night, and as dawn was just breaking the next day, Mu Jiawen rose early and stepped out of the house, only to spot Jiang Yan standing in the yard looking westward.

“What are you looking at?”

There was no nightlife in the countryside, so having gone to bed earlier than usual the night before, they naturally woke up early today.

Jiang Yan raised his hand, pointing to the large rooster perched on the neighboring yard’s wall, and said, “It woke

up, so I scolded it, and it’s been staring at

ever since.”

He was actually picking a fight with a chicken.

Mu Jiawen was amused and turned her head to say, “I feel like eating the fried dough sticks and pan-fried buns from the town, let’s go buy so and have them for breakfast.”

“Sure.”

Every place has its own specialities; no matter how skilled one is at cooking at ho, there are tis when you crave for the food that was hard to afford back in your student days, and you miss that taste.

The two of them left the house and walked along the town’s sowhat uneven asphalt road.

“Are we going to Haishi today?”

Jiang Yan had an inherent aversion to the place where he had died in his past life.

In this life, he had taken a completely different path, and whenever he thought of Haishi, it felt like a dream. Once awake, he had no desire to revisit that dream.

Mu Jiawen noticed that his mood beca sowhat strange every ti this place was ntioned. Why was that?

She didn’t probe too deeply, but simply said, “If you don’t want to go, we don’t have to. We can say there’s sothing at school and we need to go back early.”

“You don’t want to see your grandfather’s brother?”

Mu Jiawen said with a smile, “After all, he’s not my grandfather himself. What does it matter whether or not we see him? Besides, I don’t really fancy traveling with Xie Jingying either.”

No matter what her foster mother had beco, there was no reason for Mu Jiawen to forgive her.

She wouldn’t do anything to her, but she also had no desire to see her again.

“Alright then, after breakfast, we’ll go visit Old Yu, and then head to Yunzhou. Zhu Jin seems to be attending a full-month celebration today, and since there’s nothing else tomorrow, we’ll head back.”

As they talked, they soon reached the town’s morning market, where a constant loud crackling noise could be heard—the sound of frying dough sticks and searing buns.

They went to the stall they used to frequent, paid for their dough sticks and buns, and just as they were about to leave, they were caught off guard by an exclamation from beside them, “Jiajia?”

Jiang Yan and Mu Jiawen turned around, and upon seeing it was Song Xiaoli, they both chose to ignore her and walked away.

Song Xiaoli was stunned, seemingly not expecting Mu Jiawen’s cold attitude towards her.

She bit her lip, not caring anymore about the embarrassnt, and without even buying her buns, turned and chased after them with quick steps, asking hurriedly, “Jiajia, I heard from others that you’re not the biological daughter of your Uncle and Auntie, but that they picked you up as a child—is that true?”
