Chapter 175: Laughing Stock

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Si Cheng sat in front of the computer and watched Jiang Huai show the report of his relationship with Jiang An. He finally understood why the two babies suddenly changed their surnames to Jiang. At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief. Although the two of them repeatedly emphasized that they were siblings, how could a man and woman who were not related by blood have pure friendship or kinship? Anyway, he did not believe it.

However, now that Jiang Huai suddenly made such a move, Si Cheng was a little angry. He was angry that the two of them did not tell him about their relationship in advance and even exposed it at this time, making him seem like he was deliberately misleading the netizens. Fortunately, he did not have any actual relationship with Tan Si. These could be explained later. As for what happened to Tan Si later, it had nothing to do with him.

Si Cheng was thinking of a solution when the office door was suddenly pushed open. Si Cheng frowned slightly and said unhappily, “Don’t you know how to knock when you come in?!”

“I’m your mother,” Zheng Wen replied unhappily as she strode towards the desk.

Si Cheng looked at Zheng Wen and asked curiously, “Didn’t you say that you were going to attend a gathering with your sisters? Why are you free to come here?”

Zheng Wen sat on the chair opposite Si Cheng and wanted to say something but hesitated.

It was rare for Si Cheng to see his mother like this. “It’s not your style to hesitate. Just say what you want to say.”

A trace of discomfort flashed across Zheng Wen’s face. She coughed lightly. “Have you been in contact with Tan Ming for the past two days?”

Si Cheng shook his head. “I’ve been busy with work these two days. 1 even sleep in the company.”

Zheng Wen recalled what had happened just now and her emotions were very complicated.

Recently, Si Cheng’s situation had eased a little. After the news of him planning to marry into the Bai family and expand the overseas market was released, some shareholders had indeed returned to support Si Cheng. Even Zheng Wen’s mood had improved a lot.

However, this good mood only lasted until noon when she went to the club to attend the gathering.

The sisters reunion she attended today was organized by the wife of the head of the Huang family, who had moved back to Sea City from Jingdu City last year. The Huang family had entered Jingdu City ten years ago to develop their business, and their journey had been smooth. Unfortunately, because of a bad decision two years ago, they had suffered heavy losses, so they retreated to their hometown, Sea City, to recuperate.

However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. The Huang family still had a certain status in Sea City.

Zheng Wen and Mrs. Huang greeted each other and chatted casually. They were originally chatting well, but Mrs. Huang suddenly asked about the divorce.

There was nothing to hide. Zheng Wen felt that this divorce was good. “It’s also Si Cheng’s grandparents’ fault for insisting on an arranged marriage.

Otherwise, how could that small family of the Tan family marry into my family?”

When Mrs. Huang saw Zheng Wen like this, she was sure that the other party knew nothing about her daughter-in-law’s background. She wanted to say something out of kindness, but in the end, she thought that it was already a foregone conclusion. There was no turning back even if she said anything.

When Zheng Wen saw Mrs. Huang’s expression, she smiled and asked, “Mrs. Huang, if you have anything to say, just say it. With the relationship between our families, what is there you cannot say?”

Mrs. Huang lowered her eyes for a moment and decided to just tell her. After all, the two families still had children. No matter what, they were closer to each other than others. Women were always soft-hearted. It was not impossible for them to remarry for the sake of their children.

After thinking it through, Mrs. Huang looked at Zheng Wen with a much warmer gaze again. “As the saying goes, “it takes a hundred years of work to earn the chance to share a boat journey with someone, and a thousand years to share a bed with them. It’s better for a husband and wife if they are in their first marriage. I wonder if you’ve seen the news? Your daughter-in-law is the lost youngest daughter of the Jiang family in Xiyun.”

Zheng Wen turned around in shock. “…The Jiang family of Xiyun? The Jiang family that moved to Jingdu City decades ago?”

Madam Huang nodded affirmatively. “It’s their family. Last time, at the opening ceremony of Tianqi, I saw Madam Jiang bringing her third son, Jiang Huai, and your daughter-in-law. However, she didn’t say her identity at that time. It was just that I saw that they were very close and thought that your junior had caught Madam Jiang’s eye, so 1 didn’t think too much about it.” “Mom?” Zheng Wen’s thoughts were brought back to reality by Si Cheng’s call. She saw his hand waving in front of her eyes.

Zheng Wen slapped his hand away impatiently. “I heard you.”

Zheng Wen’s current mood could not even be contained by “complicated”. She told Si Cheng all the information she had obtained from Mrs. Huang. “Tan Ming… No, she should be called Jiang An. Jiang An is really too much! If she had such a background, why didn’t she say so earlier? If she had said so earlier, there wouldn’t have been a need for a divorce!”

“This is great. There are other people in the group who know that Jiang An is our daughter-in-law.. When they find out, our family will become a laughing stock in the industry!”
