Chapter 63: Departure

“Xiao family, if you don’t like them, why don’t you just let them leave Yuncheng? You have the Li family and Jiang family backing you. You just need to say the word, and they wouldn’t dare to stay,” Zhang Jie asked, looking at Xiao Miaomiao.

Xiao Miaomiao sighed helplessly, “There’s no need. My mother doesn’t even hate them, or rather, she doesn’t care anymore. They’re just strangers to me. If I care too much about them, it will only bring me pain. My mother said she hopes I can be carefree. It’s not worth getting angry over them, so I choose to ignore them.”

Zhang Jie nodded in understanding, “That makes sense. But your way of handling it is pretty good.”

Xiao Miaomiao continued, “Besides, they shouldn’t dare to come bother me easily anymore. I’ve already thought about it. If they come again, I’ll have my cousin post everything they’ve done online, so everyone can see their true colors. By then, they won’t even dare to step outside.”

Zhang Jie laughed, “That’s a good idea.”

Xiao Miaomiao said seriously, “I really don’t want to have anything to do with them anymore, but I will never tolerate them coming to find trouble with me again and affecting my mood.”

Zhang Jie comforted her, “Don’t worry, we’re here. They won’t dare to act recklessly.”

Xiao Miaomiao felt that the so-called “debt of gratitude” was simply nonsense. Back then, Xiao Shi Group almost went bankrupt because of Xiao Lin, and he actually planned to sell her to a divorced scumbag in exchange for a dowry to fill the company’s financial hole.

Later, she decided to marry Hong Wenbin and gave Xiao Lin enough money in his name to pay off the debt.

Moreover, they signed an agreement at the time, severing their father-daughter relationship.

“I have the signed document with Xiao Lin. We’ve already cut off ties. If it wasn’t too much trouble to change my name, I wouldn’t even want to keep this surname,” Xiao Miaomiao said with disgust.

Originally, except for Xiao Zhao, she had no affection for the Xiao family.

Now, she doesn’t even care about Xiao Zhao. Seeing her say this, Zhang Jie knew she had her own plan and felt a lot more at ease.

After jogging for a lap, Xiao Miaomiao stopped running and started playing with Ah Huang.

Seeing Ah Huang accompany her, Zhang Jie started running alone. Looking at his running speed, Xiao Miaomiao remembered how slowly he paced when he was running with her. She couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

Xiao Miaomiao took Ah Huang to the lawn to play fetch. It wasn’t really playing fetch, but more like Xiao Miaomiao sitting on the grass, throwing the ball for Ah Huang to fetch, and then throwing it again, repeating the cycle.

This game was boring, but they both enjoyed it. At this time, a few old men and women noticed Xiao Miaomiao. They thought she was visiting relatives because they had never seen her before.

One old lady asked curiously, “Little girl, are you an adult? Do you have a boyfriend? If you don’t, I can introduce you to my grandson.” The old lady looked at Xiao Miaomiao, thinking she looked like someone who would be good at raising children, and she was very pretty.

She thought, if Xiao Miaomiao could marry her grandson, their children would definitely be beautiful, after all, her son and grandson both looked like her husband, dark and unattractive.

“Zhang Guilan, stop worrying about it! Forget about your grandson. He’s so dark, you wouldn’t even find him in a coal pile. How dare you introduce your little coal ball to this girl!” Another old lady couldn’t help but tease.

“Yes, little girl, look at my grandson. I have a picture here.” Another grandmother held up her phone in front of Xiao Miaomiao.

Xiao Miaomiao looked at the man in the picture, he was indeed handsome, a ripped man with eight-pack abs. It was obviously taken at a gym, and the man probably didn’t expect his grandmother to use it for matchmaking.

Ah Huang came back with the ball and saw Xiao Miaomiao surrounded by people. He could only lie down and watch.

Xiao Miaomiao was also amused. She had finally come out to run today, and she was stopped for matchmaking.

“No, grandpa and grandma, I’m already married,” Xiao Miaomiao said, looking at them with a smile.

“Married? Are you from this neighborhood? It seems like no one has had a wedding recently. You must not be from this neighborhood.” The old lady asked Xiao Miaomiao.

Xiao Miaomiao smiled and nodded, “I live here, but we haven’t had the wedding yet.”

“Oh, what a pity! My boy is so good, not only is he handsome, but he’s also highly educated!” Another grandmother said regretfully.

Xiao Miaomiao smiled helplessly, “Grandmas, your grandsons are all excellent, they will find better and more suitable girls who will be filial to you.”

The old ladies heard Xiao Miaomiao’s words and sighed, “This little girl is beautiful and polite, it’s rare.”

“Yes, it’s a pity she’s already married, otherwise I would have introduced my grandson to you. I have three grandsons, you can pick whichever you like.”

Xiao Miaomiao heard their discussion and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Little girl, whose little wife are you? You’re so beautiful, you’re so lucky to be married.” The speaker was an old man who looked very kind. He looked at Xiao Miaomiao with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.

“Yes, Old Li, you think this girl is lucky, don’t you?” The old lady next to him agreed.

“Of course, this girl obviously has a lucky face.” Another old man next to him also nodded in agreement with a smile.

“Little girl, Old Li can see fortunes, he said you’re lucky, it must be true.” The old lady nodded at Xiao Miaomiao.

Xiao Miaomiao couldn’t help but laugh after hearing their discussion. She thought to herself, “Am I really lucky?”

But remembering that her grandparents had also praised her for being lucky, she felt a little more confident about this statement.

She hoped this luck would bless her with a smooth pregnancy and a son.

After all, boys are relatively easier to raise, they don’t need as much care and worry. Girls, on the other hand, need more attention and care, which made her feel stressed.

“I’m from the Li family,” Xiao Miaomiao smiled at them, “Li Jingcheng is my husband.”

The old lady and the old men couldn’t help but twitch their mouths when they heard the name Li Jingcheng, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces. They looked at each other, seeming to be in disbelief.

“The Li Jingcheng from the Li family who’s been in a coma?” The old man widened his eyes, looking at Xiao Miaomiao with suspicion.
