After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 94: Miss Shen Might Remarry
Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Miss Shen Might Remarry
Shi Yu suddenly moved next door, right across from her, and Shen Qingqing felt delighted.
After the initial surprise, she realized something was off, "Did those people give you trouble?"
Shi Yu moved out of the Shi Family because her stepmother crossed her line.
Now with the sudden move, it’s likely those people did something "nice" again.
Shi Yu didn’t hide it and openly shared it with Shen Qingqing.
"They keep throwing every lousy guy my way, truly shameless, afraid no one will see how black-hearted they are."
Other people’s stepmothers at least pretend.
The one in their family can’t even fake it.
Shi Yu feels those two are like rotten fish paired with spoiled shrimp, so sorry for their original spouses, ruined by them.
When Shen Qingqing was little, her parents spoiled her greatly.
Later, when she went to the Jiang Family, the elders treated her well too, and never mistreated her.
The actions of the Shi Family really opened her eyes.
"You can’t hide from them forever, should come up with a way to solve the problem once and for all."
Even if Shi Yu and Chen Shaojie marry successfully, it will take a long time through the process.
If the problem isn’t solved, no one can guarantee there won’t be any hiccups during this period.
Shi Yu didn’t want Shen Qingqing to worry about her, "I know what I’m doing; I won’t let myself suffer."
These years, the Shi Family hasn’t taken a hair from her.
That’s why they’re so furious, trying to marry her off to a loser, to doom her life forever.
Shi Yu isn’t afraid of people picking a quarrel, but fears the unexpected, giving others an opportunity to exploit.
So splitting from the family and getting her household registration is the most urgent step now.
Shi Yu has her plans, and since Chen Shaojie is still in Beijing, Shen Qingqing didn’t worry too much.
She just gave Shi Yu a calming word, "I know a lawyer, if needed, can help you."
Shen Qingqing grew up in a courtyard, with many successful kids around.
All kinds of fields have people involved.
If Shi Yu really needs help, Shen Qingqing can find someone to assist.
Shi Yu gave her a grateful look, "If needed, I definitely won’t be polite with you."
Chen Shaojie, who hadn’t gotten a word in, asked Shen Qingqing, "Miss Shen, when are you free? I’d like to invite you for a meal."
Shi Yu chimed in, "We promised earlier to go eat steak at a western restaurant. Let us know when it’s convenient for you, so we can enjoy it together and make it livelier."
When Shen Qingqing was still in the Northwest, she called Shi Yu and mentioned going to a western restaurant.
The time had just passed by, and Shen Qingqing forgot about it.
After Shi Yu’s reminder, she realized they had made that plan.
"When does Mr. Chen return to the Northwest?"
Chen Shaojie said, "After the Lantern Festival."
On New Year’s Eve, Shi Yu was alone for the holidays.
Now he’s in Beijing, with the holiday just right, he has to accompany her for the Lantern Festival.
Knowing that Shen Qingqing would return to the courtyard that day, Shi Yu and Chen Shaojie didn’t invite her to join their celebration.
Shen Qingqing thought about it, "Then take care of your business first, and if the problem is solved, let’s celebrate by going to the western restaurant on the 14th."
"Sounds good."
Shi Yu readily agreed.
Chen Shaojie was fine with it, "I’d like to visit the department store as well and maybe ask Miss Shen to help pick some gifts for my friends."
These words had logical holes.
Shen Qingqing suspected the friend Chen Shaojie mentioned was actually her.
Otherwise, why didn’t he ask Shi Yu to choose?
In whatever culture, after a successful matchmaking, people have the habit of gifting the matchmaker.
Shen Qingqing wasn’t sure if she guessed right.
But if Chen Shaojie and Shi Yu were really planning to gift her something, she’d accept it.
After all, this gift would hold special meaning.
"Is your place tidied up? How about dining at my place tonight, so you don’t have to start a fire?"
Shi Yu stepped aside to let Shen Qingqing see the situation inside.
"It’s still messy, some things haven’t been moved yet, need Mr. Chen to make a couple more trips."
Shi Yu, being generous, borrowed a handcart thanks to her good relationships.
But she had too many belongings, couldn’t move them all in one trip.
Fortunately, Chen Shaojie was strong and sturdy; had it been her alone, who knows how much effort it would take.
Shen Qingqing said, "Then come over to my place for dinner, I’ll head to the co-op to buy some groceries later."
These days, she hadn’t been out, her place still abundant in rice, flour, and eggs, but out of other vegetables.
Though Chen Shaojie and Shi Yu were dating, they weren’t that close yet.
Could only help tidy the living room and kitchen.
The bedroom was up to her.
He immediately offered, "I’ll go buy them, need to make a call anyway."
Judging by the time, Jiang Zhixun must have returned to his post.
Chen Shaojie had much to discuss and needed to talk to him thoroughly.
Shen Qingqing wanted to take a walk and buy groceries, just about to speak when Shi Yu stopped her.
"If you don’t let him buy the groceries, we won’t come to your place for dinner."
Chen Shaojie nodded in agreement.
Shen Qingqing relented, "Alright, you go buy the groceries."
She then asked if they preferred rice or steamed buns since she’d need to ferment the dough in advance.
Every person’s food ration was fixed, and ration tickets were scarce; it wouldn’t feel right for Shi Yu to impose on Shen Qingqing’s hospitality.
Returning home, she brought out a bag of cornmeal, "How about mixed grain steamed buns?"
Shen Qingqing wasn’t picky about food.
Shi Yu said, "I’ll mix the dough; your one hand isn’t convenient, just keep me company talking."
The two went across the hall, Chen Shaojie continued helping Shi Yu move belongings.
Once everything was moved, he assisted her in cleaning and setting up the kitchen and living room, leaving the rest for Shi Yu to organize herself.
In the hustle, three hours had passed.
Chen Shaojie had to go buy groceries and asked Shi Yu what she would like.
Shi Yu recalled Shen Qingqing mentioning wanting to eat roast duck.
Though she’d only eaten it recently, Shen Qingqing had introduced her to such a good match, treating her to a hundred roast ducks wouldn’t feel like too much.
"Buy a roast duck, and pick whatever else you want."
Afraid he didn’t have enough coupons, Shi Yu handed her meat coupons to Chen Shaojie.
Chen Shaojie didn’t take them.
He wasn’t about to play the role of a kept man by using his girlfriend’s coupons.
Having come to Beijing for matchmaking, he was fully prepared.
One aspect was exchanging enough food and meat coupons to conveniently treat the ladies.
"I’ve got enough; you keep yours."
To avoid Shi Yu forcing them on him, he quickly ran off as soon as he spoke.
Shi Yu walked quickly to the window, waited until Chen Shaojie was downstairs, and called him, "Just in case, if you don’t use them, bring them back."
She said as she threw the coupons down.
The coupons fluttered gently in the air, Shi Yu watched them intently until they landed in Chen Shaojie’s hand, finally feeling relieved.
"Stay safe, I’ll be waiting for you."
Chen Shaojie grinned with a genuine smile, "I’ll be right back."
During this time, he had already familiarized himself with the surrounding areas.
Find the post office to call back to the base.
When Jiang Zhixun returned to the Northwest this time, he was like a wilted eggplant, lacking any enthusiasm.
Upon hearing Chen Shaojie called him, he assumed something was wrong on Shen Qingqing’s side. freewebnøvel.coɱ
He immediately called back.
"Old Jiang, Miss Shen might be looking to remarry."
