Chapter 36: Gratitude

Xiao Miaomiao looked at Mrs. Jiang with gratitude, “Thank you, Auntie. I know you’ve been good to me. I accidentally discovered this, I didn’t expect Wenbin to treat me like this.”

Mrs. Jiang comforted her, “Don’t be sad, that kind of man isn’t worth your sadness. If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell us, we will help you.”

Xiao Miaomiao nodded.

Mrs. Jiang saw that Liu Yueyue dared to glare at her and couldn’t help but laugh, “Do you think the man truly loves you? If he truly loved you, how could he make you a mistress? He’s just seeking a temporary thrill.”

“You’ve been hiding in the house, and now you dare to walk out so brazenly, you’re shameless! Do you think you can be arrogant and domineering just because you’re pregnant? Miaomiao didn’t do anything to you, she just doesn’t want to lower her own status. What right do you have to bully Miaomiao?” After speaking, Mrs. Jiang took out her phone from her bag and directly called Mrs. Hong.

The ladies all knew each other, and Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Hong were no exception.

“Mrs. Hong, I saw a fascinating play today, it’s about your second son.”

“Mrs. Jiang, please speak freely.” Mrs. Hong heard this and a sense of helplessness flashed in her eyes, thinking that her second son had gotten into trouble again.

“The woman your son Hong Wenbin cheated on his wife with is now pregnant, and she even dares to blatantly threaten Miaomiao to return the divorce property to your family, and she even said arrogantly that she wants to leave it to the child in her belly.”

“If Miaomiao hadn’t discovered your son’s infidelity and divorced early, they actually planned to make Miaomiao infertile so they could raise the child for them. Your Hong family is truly well-mannered, do you think Miaomiao has no mother and her father doesn’t love her, so you can just manipulate her like this?” Mrs. Jiang sarcastically said in a cold tone.

Mrs. Hong heard this, a flash of surprise crossed her eyes, she hadn’t heard any news about the divorce, and she didn’t know anything about the pregnant woman.

“Who is that pregnant woman?” Mrs. Hong quickly calmed down and tried to remain calm.

“Mrs. Jiang, rest assured, I will give Miaomiao an explanation about this matter.” Mrs. Hong said.

“Miaomiao, what’s this woman’s name?” Mrs. Jiang turned to ask Miaomiao.

“Liu Yueyue, the one Mrs. Hong gave money to three years ago to go abroad, she secretly came back a year ago, and she got back in touch with Hong Wenbin before he even had a wedding ceremony with him.” Miaomiao replied.

“They were together while they were also deceiving me into getting married.” Miaomiao continued.

After hearing Xiao Miaomiao say this, Mrs. Hong understood who she was talking about.

She couldn’t help but frown, secretly muttering to herself: That woman actually came back! But she quickly calmed down, and firmly said to Xiao Miaomiao, “Don’t worry, I will never let her step into the Hong family’s door. If Hong Wenbin really intends to be with her, I will not hesitate to kick him out of the house.”

Mrs. Hong always adhered to the principle of justice and fairness, even with her family. Besides, she had no fondness for Liu Yueyue at all, and she wouldn’t let her enter the Hong family.

Xiao Miaomiao quickly said, “Don’t, Mrs. Hong, Hong Wenbin and I have already divorced, you don’t need to consider my feelings. Let them do whatever they want, I have no opinion on it.”

She didn’t want to cause conflict between Hong Wenbin and Liu Yueyue because of her, and then be blamed by Hong Wenbin and find trouble. After all, she had already divorced Hong Wenbin and had nothing to do with him.

Mrs. Hong heard Miaomiao’s words and felt very troubled. She sighed and said helplessly, “It’s not because of you, but because I don’t like Liu Yueyue. Of course I won’t let her enter the Hong family and cause trouble for myself.” Hearing this, Xiao Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in understanding.

Liu Yueyue also felt sad when she heard Mrs. Hong’s words, tears flowed from her eyes, making her face look pitiful.

“What are you crying about here! Don’t you know what kind of person you are? You’re a vixen, you ruined my Miaomiao’s family!” Mrs. Jiang pointed her nose at Liu Yueyue and cursed.

Liu Yueyue explained aggrievedly, “Auntie, I’m not a vixen, I truly love Hong Wenbin. And… and I’m already pregnant, I’m the one he loves!”

Liu Yueyue said to the phone, “Mrs. Hong, I know you don’t like me, but I’m carrying your grandson, are you really going to abandon him?”

Before Hong Wenbin got divorced, he suggested that she stay overnight outside, so be it. But now that he’s divorced, does he still want her to be a mistress outside? She must enter the Hong family.

Hearing this news, Mrs. Hong didn’t feel happy or soft-hearted as Liu Yueyue imagined.

Instead, she shouted even more angrily, “You dare to threaten me with a child! I tell you, I won’t be fooled by your tricks! Even if you’re pregnant, so what? I still won’t let you enter the Hong family!”

Mrs. Jiang hung up the phone and turned to look at Liu Yueyue, her eyes cold and merciless. Her tone was full of sarcasm and disdain, sending a chill down one’s spine.

“You’re not leaving yet? Do you want to continue making a fool of yourself here? Do you think you can get sympathy and support this way? Don’t dream about it!” Mrs. Jiang’s voice was as sharp as a cold wind.

Liu Yueyue trembled slightly after hearing these words, but she still stood firm. She raised her head and looked at Mrs. Jiang with determination, her eyes flashing with an unyielding light.

Mrs. Jiang sneered, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes. She shook her head, as if she found Liu Yueyue’s persistence ridiculous.

“You’re too early to be arrogant in front of Miaomiao, a mistress who wants to take over, I don’t know how you have the face to shout at her.” Mrs. Jiang said to Liu Yueyue.

Mrs. Jiang looked at this woman who was like a white lotus, and couldn’t help but feel disgusted. Her appearance was not as good as Xiao Miaomiao’s in any way, and she still dared to come out and make a fool of herself.

“Aunt Jiang, I’m fine, Hong Wenbin wouldn’t dare to do anything to me, he’s in a lot of trouble now.” Xiao Miaomiao smiled and comforted Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang nodded, a relieved smile appearing on her face. She patted Xiao Miaomiao’s hand and said gently, “It’s good that you’re fine, we didn’t think highly of Hong Wenbin and your Uncle Jiang before, our Miaomiao deserves better, what do you think of your Uncle Jiang’s son, be my daughter-in-law.”

Xiao Miaomiao blushed when she heard Mrs. Jiang’s words and lowered her head awkwardly.

Mrs. Jiang saw Xiao Miaomiao’s shy look and couldn’t help but laugh. She held Xiao Miaomiao’s hand and said earnestly, “Miaomiao, I’ve always liked you, it would be great if you could become my daughter-in-law.”

She wasn’t joking, Xiao Miaomiao’s mother was a great benefactor to their family, and they loved Xiao Miaomiao even more, and they had watched her grow up, so they naturally knew this child’s character.

Xiao Miaomiao heard this and said awkwardly, “That, Aunt Jiang, I’m already married.”
