Chapter 80 Lu Jinye Was Fine with Remarrying
Mu Zhi picked up Jian Xiaoning and they both walked into the estate. Seeing as no one was around,
Mu Zhi quickly filled Jian Xiaoning in.
The entire story included what she had told Lu Jinye before. About how Jian Xiaoning was her sister-in-
law, how her older brother had passed away and that Mu Xiaomu is Jian Xiaoning’s daughter.
Jian Xiaoning rolled her eyes.
“I haven’t never been in love and yet somehow you’ve already made me a widow.”
Mu Zhi hurriedly comforted Jian Xiaoning, “That medical journal that you have to publish this year? I’ll
write it for you. Do this for me please?”
Jian Xiaoning surrendered and followed Mu Zhi in.
Mu Zhi then filled Jian Xiaoning on the happenings of the day. Including how much she had suffered
while picking Mu Xiaomu up from school, how Liang Jieyi had solved it for them and how Lu Jinye
somehow landed himself the title of Mu Xiaomu’s father.
In any case, her head began to pound as she recalled what had happened.
Jian Xiaoning, on the other hand, was all sorts of excited.
Jian Xiaoning’s eyes shone brightly as she said, “You should remarry Lu Jinye. I think Lu Jinye would
make a good father for Mu Xiaomu.”
Mu Zhi glared at Jian Xiaoning and ignored her.
“Listen. Think about it. A man like Lu Jinye is a rarity. If you can, you two should definitely remarry.
Then Mu Xiaomu will really have a father,” Jian Xiaoning added.
If it was just the two of them, Mu Zhi could simply ignore the nonsense Jian Xiaoning was spouting.

among the flowers.
Mu Zhi held her breath.
Xiao Qingqing didn’t seem to be too upset. But the forced smile she was wearing gave them shivers.
It was only natural for friends to talk shit among themselves. But if Xiao Qingqing had overheard, she
might take things out of context.
“Didn’t you go in with Mr. Lu? Or are you… Appreciating the scenery?”
Mu Zhi spoke first to break the awkwardness in the air.
However, Xiao Qingqing quietly replied, “I’m waiting for you.”
“Waiting for me?”
Mu Zhi contemplated before replying.
It might be because of her conversation with Jian Xiaoning but Mu Zhi felt guilty.
Even her words held no conviction.
“I wanted to talk to you about your role as an ex-wife.”
Prior to this, Xiao Qingqing was still smiling, albeit fake. Up until halfway through her sentence, her
tone was still somewhat pleasant.
But as soon as the words ‘your role as an ex-wife’ left her lips, she was now openly hostile.
Mu Zhi suddenly felt the breeze of an ill wind.
Mu Zhi kept what she felt off her face. Instead, she just smiled slightly, “Sure. I’d like to know your
definition of an ex-wife.”
Mu Zhi carefully emphasized the word.
Xiao Qingqing looked at Mu Zhi disdainfully, “Miss Mu, you’re a smart woman. You should know that an
ex-wife is exactly what it sounds like. You’re his past. So stay in the past. Don’t be coming out of the
woodwork just because you have nothing better to do. You’ll just look cheap.”
Mu Zhi lifted her chin and glared at Xiao Qingqing coldly.
She was in no rush to refute her as she knew that Xiao Qingqing had more to add.
Jian Xiaoning, on the other hand, sneered.
She looked up at Xiao Qingqing in contempt.
Jian Xiaoning was shorter than Xiao Qingqing, but when she laughed at her, she might as well be
double her height.
“Xiao Qingqing, if the ex-wife is in the past, then doesn’t that mean that you, the ex-girlfriend is way
before that? If even you have come out of the woodwork, then wouldn’t that make you the cheaper
one?”
“My vocabulary is lacking so I just used words that you have used.”
Jian Xiaoning added.
How annoying.
Xiao Qingqing who still had the same fake smile plastered on her face, exploded in fury.
She had no intention of controlling her emotions. She looked straight at Jian Xiaoning and sneered at
her, “Loose tongues are quick to talk, but they are useless.”
“Besides, who cares if I’m in the past, I was loved by Jinye, whereas you, have never been loved.”
“I overheard your conversation and I just want to let you know how ridiculous, ignorant and pitiful you’re
behaving. An ex-wife who has been kicked out of the house is trying to trick her ex-husband into
believing that he’s the father of her bastard daughter.”
Xiao Qingqing’s words were horrible to hear.
She kept her head high and proud. As if she was showing off.
It was uncomfortable for them to look at.
Xiao Qingqing’s words triggered Jian Xiaoning.

She pointed a finger at Xiao Qingqing’s face, “You have a filthy mouth.”
Jian Xiaoning was close to slapping Xiao Qingqing.
But Mu Zhi grabbed her just in time. Xiao Qingqing’s words made her uncomfortable.
But she knew that she could not exactly slap Xiao Qingqing right now.
She needed reason.
A slap across Xiao Qingqing’s face would no doubt give her much pleasure.
“Although everything you’ve just said was unsophisticated, disgusting and lacked any sense of
propriety, I’d like to point out a few mistakes,” Mu Zhi smile provokingly. “Firstly, I was not the ex-wife
who was kicked out of the house. The contract between Lu Jinye and I was binding for a specified
number of years. I held up my end of the agreement and left willingly. Unlike you who latched onto Lu
Jinye and would not let go and yet somehow, you still haven’t managed to convince him to marry you.
Secondly, Mu Xiaomu is no bastard. She has a mother and a father. However, I’ve heard about how
complicated your family is. I guess it’s only normal for you to think that everyone’s circumstances are
the same as your own.”
Not a single crude word could be found in Mu Zhi’s rebuttal.
And yet she somehow managed to put Xiao Qingqing in her place.
Jian Xiaoning silently applauded her.
Xiao Qingqing also caught the implications. She stamped her foot in anger.
From a distance, without them realizing it, Shen Mobo had somehow made his way to them.
Just when Xiao Qingqing was about to lose it, Shen Mobo reached out to stop her. He grabbed her arm
and said, “Qingqing, everyone’s waiting for you. We have to hurry. I’ve been looking for you for a while
now.”
Xiao Qingqing was about to blow a gasket. She wanted to have it out with Mu Zhi.
But Shen Mobo lowered his head to remind her.
While Mu Zhi and Jian Xiaoning stood at the side and watched them leave.
In any case, Mu Zhi felt empty after saying her piece. She never wanted to see Xiao Qingqing ever
again.
However, Jian Xiaoning nudged her arm and said, “I think that Shen Mobo may have unspeakable
feelings towards Xiao Qingqing.”
