Chapter 37: Remarriage

Mrs. Jiang stared at Xiao Miaomiao with wide eyes, her voice filled with surprise and confusion. “Miaomiao, you mean… you’re already remarried? But you just ended a marriage, this… this is too sudden.”

“Who is he? Can we meet him? If you think it’s not suitable, we can reconsider. After all, we will naturally keep a close eye on your brother Jiang Shen, and we will never let him do anything that would hurt you.” Her words were filled with the concern and urgency of an elder.

At this moment, Ouyang Xuan, who had been waiting silently, coughed lightly, interrupting the sudden discussion.

She had only gone out to buy something with Miaomiao, but she never thought she would encounter Liu Yueyue here, the one who made the atmosphere a bit subtle. She also didn’t expect to encounter a “battle for a daughter-in-law.” She couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly.

She stood gracefully, her gaze gentle yet firm as she looked at Mrs. Jiang, smiling as she declared, “Mrs. Jiang, hello. I want to clarify that Miaomiao is now part of our Li family, my daughter-in-law. We cherish this bond very much, and our family treats Miaomiao extremely well. We won’t let her suffer any injustice.”

Mrs. Jiang’s gaze finally moved past Xiao Miaomiao’s shoulder, landing on Ouyang Xuan, the dignified lady from the prestigious Li Group, who stood quietly behind her.

Instantly, she couldn’t help but gasp, her body stiffened, her gaze slowly returning to Xiao Miaomiao, her eyes filled with disbelief, as if silently asking, “Is… is this true?”

Xiao Miaomiao nodded gently, her eyes firm and tender, giving a definite answer, as if this was already a well-considered decision for her.

“No, Miaomiao, how can you be so impulsive, the Li family’s…,” Mrs. Jiang’s voice carried a hint of urgency and confusion, her words trailing off, clearly hesitant to mention the current situation of “the Li family’s”.

Finally, she vaguely said, “His current situation, you must know…” Her words stopped at the edge of her lips, as she still considered Ouyang Xuan’s identity and didn’t directly mention the cruel fact that Li Jingcheng was now a vegetable.

“I know.” Xiao Miaomiao didn’t deny that Li Jingcheng was now a vegetable, after all, she had married Li Jingcheng precisely because he was a vegetable.

Ouyang Xuan looked at the manager beside her and said softly, “Take us to a rest room.” The manager immediately nodded and led them towards a quiet and comfortable rest room.

Liu Yueyue and the other ladies who hadn’t left yet looked at Xiao Miaomiao with stunned expressions, unable to believe their eyes.

The recently divorced Xiao Miaomiao had remarried into the Li family so quickly! Liu Yueyue didn’t understand why everyone around her was so shocked at first, but after hearing the discussions around her and learning that Xiao Miaomiao had married into the richest Li family, she too couldn’t help but widen her eyes.

“But isn’t Li Jingcheng already a vegetable? Why would Ms. Xiao actively marry him?” someone asked in confusion.

“Maybe because she was hurt too deeply by her ex-husband and thinks all men are unreliable, so she chose a vegetable as her husband.” Another person speculated. It must be said that this explanation did make some sense.

Mrs. Jiang pondered silently, her disgust towards Hong Wenbin growing stronger. He had already committed adultery during their marriage, which was deeply abhorrent, and now he had forced Miaomiao to marry a vegetable.

“It’s also possible that she’s after the Li family’s wealth. I heard that the Li family’s president is just in a coma, but his reproductive function is still intact. If Ms. Xiao can give birth to a son or daughter, wouldn’t the entire Li family be hers?”

“That’s true! Hong Wenbin cheated, lost half of his property, and had to apologize. Now he’s married into the Li family. Ms. Xiao won’t have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life.”

“Of course, the Li family isn’t so easy to get into.”

“Some young ladies were worried that their families would send them to the Li family for a “lucky marriage” and left home early. After a while, they came back to inquire if the Li family had any plans for a “lucky marriage,” but the Li family never did.”

“I remember someone went directly to their door, but they were all rejected. It’s unexpected that the Li family would choose a twice-married Xiao Miaomiao. It can only be said that Xiao Miaomiao’s luck is truly amazing.”

“Of course, people are different. Her life is blessed, unlike some people who are like sparrows trying to become phoenixes and have no chance.” She said sarcastically, glancing at Liu Yueyue. Everyone left.

Zhang Rongrong stayed behind and looked at Liu Yueyue, “Hong Wenbin’s taste is really bad, he actually chose to be with someone like you.”

Liu Yueyue’s face turned pale after hearing this, but she still forced a response, “What does it have to do with you?”

“But you probably read too many novels. The wealthy families aren’t so easy to get into. If you want to become the mother of a child and gain power, you need to investigate the family’s situation first. Hong Wenbin has many illegitimate sons, but none of them were able to return to the Hong family. They all took their mother’s surname.” Zhang Rongrong continued, a gleam of schadenfreude in her eyes.

Liu Yueyue felt a pang in her heart after hearing this. She never thought she would be in such an awkward situation.

She gritted her teeth and said, “This has nothing to do with you, you don’t need to tell me this.”

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, her heart filled with pain and despair.

Zhang Rongrong saw Liu Yueyue’s sadness and a smug smile appeared on her face.

“Also, Mrs. Hong values family background the most. You got pregnant during your marriage, you’ll never get into the Hong family in your life, and Hong Wenbin won’t marry you. You should think about how to get more money from him. After all, if he marries you, he’ll have to give up everything from the Hong family, and his small company is on the verge of collapse now.” Zhang Rongrong said with a smile.

Liu Yueyue looked at her with a gloomy expression, her hands clenched into fists, her heart filled with anger and humiliation. She gritted her teeth, forcing back her tears, refusing to let them fall.

“I remember you, you pursued Wenbin before, but he ignored you.” Liu Yueyue raised her head and looked coldly at Zhang Rongrong.

Zhang Rongrong was slightly taken aback, then a smug smile appeared on her face. “That’s right, I pursued him before, and he rejected me. But now, as long as I spread the word that I’m willing to marry him, he’ll definitely come chasing after me. You should be careful with the child in your belly.” Zhang Rongrong’s lips curled up, her eyes revealing a hint of mockery and provocation.

Liu Yueyue’s face instantly turned pale. She stared at Zhang Rongrong with wide eyes, unable to believe it.

She never thought that this woman who had been rejected by Hong Wenbin before would be so confident, even openly stating that she would take Hong Wenbin away.

Seeing that Liu Yueyue had nothing to say, Zhang Rongrong nodded in satisfaction, then turned and left. The few girls behind her also left, leaving Liu Yueyue alone, her expression dejected.
