Chapter 2823 Safe Haven!
When Jiang Zheng returned late, he saw that Jiang Qiaoxi's eyes were fixed on Liang Hongfei, and he thought that Jiang Qiaoxi did not want to leave her parents.

But after receiving the divorce certificate, Jiang Zheng did feel much lighter, so he could only harden his heart and say to Jiang Qiaoxi, "Jiang Qiaoxi, you'll be an adult soon, you're practically a big kid now. You should understand some things. Your mother and I are being honest, we can't go on like this anymore."

Besides, I've already spoken to your Uncle Wang about letting you stay at Wang Yue's house, so you'll have someone to keep you company when you go to school.

"Right now, I have an opportunity to be promoted and become a general manager in Anhui. If you get into the University of Science and Technology of China, we can live together next year. If you want to go to Tsinghua University, Dad will come to see you when he has time, and you can come visit me during your summer and winter vacations too."

Jiang Qiaoxi was deeply hurt after hearing this. He knew, of course, that his father was deliberately avoiding him, or perhaps avoiding the family.

You see, Jiang Zheng is already a vice president here, just waiting for the general manager to retire so he can be promoted. But at this moment, he's suddenly being transferred to another province, which is clearly not a normal promotion; he just wants to leave this place that hurts him.

From Jiang Qiaoxi's perspective, if it were only for this reason, he would have been eager to go with Jiang Zheng as long as Jiang Zheng said he would take him along.

But now Jiang Zheng has no intention of bringing Jiang Qiaoxi along, which makes Jiang Qiaoxi feel particularly sad.

Soon, something even more upsetting happened to Jiang Qiaoxi. He had thought his mother was packing her bags and leaving, but after she finished packing, she pushed a suitcase in front of him.

"Jiang Qiaoxi, here is your luggage. Pack your things and go."

Jiang Qiaoxi was somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected that this was his own thing. He turned around and looked at his father in surprise.

Jiang Zheng shook his head helplessly and said, "Your mother and I have already obtained our divorce certificate. This house belongs to your mother. Of course, you can't live here since you're with me."

Jiang Qiaoxi then realized what was going on. He suddenly understood that his father didn't necessarily abandon him; it was just a bit hasty.

Suddenly, Jiang Qiaoxi felt less disappointed and immediately went back to his room to pack his books. Judging from his quick movements, he clearly didn't want to stay there any longer.

Seeing his son's reaction, Jiang Zheng suddenly felt that he had made the right move and breathed a sigh of relief.

Liang Hongfei felt extremely disappointed, feeling that nothing she had done was understood, not even by her own son.

Jiang Qiaoxi had no idea what his parents were thinking. He came out with two bags in no time, while Jiang Zheng had already been carrying Jiang Qiaoxi's suitcase and was already at the door.

As Jiang Qiaoxi passed by Liang Hongfei carrying a package, he said very seriously, "Mom, I know you haven't gotten over the grief of losing my brother."

But I am also your son, I am also a living being, why do you insist that I live like my brother?
Mom, as you know, there are no two identical leaves in the world, let alone two identical people.

I believe even I, a child, understand this, so you, as an adult, certainly understand it even better.

I know I can't blame anyone else for how things have come to this. But you will always be my mother. However, until you are willing to acknowledge me as your son instead of treating me as a substitute for my brother, please don't appear in my life anymore.

I am Jiang Qiaoxi, not someone else's substitute!

After Jiang Qiaoxi finished speaking, he turned around and left cleanly and decisively, without any hesitation.

Jiang Zheng also glanced at Liang Hongfei. In fact, some people were reluctant to let go, after all, they had been husband and wife for so many years. But thinking about Liang Hongfei's increasingly obsessive behavior, he really didn't want to spend the rest of his life in such internal strife.

So, Jiang Zheng sighed, said nothing, and turned to follow Jiang Qiaoxi.

This woman, Jiang Zheng was patriotic; otherwise, he wouldn't have had another child after losing his eldest son, instead of divorcing his wife.

But Liang Hongfei's personality became increasingly obsessive at some point, which Jiang Zheng could no longer tolerate.

Taking advantage of this outburst, Jiang Zheng decided to get a divorce so that they could both calm down.

Jiang Zheng actually felt that Liang Hongfei only thought of his eldest son when she was with him. In fact, he also noticed that Liang Hongfei sometimes thought of his eldest son.

As a man, Jiang Zheng was heartbroken but had to endure it. He was already suffering enough, but he still had to face Liang Hongfei's repeated betrayals. He was truly afraid that one day he would be driven insane.

Jiang Zheng was filled with mixed feelings. He drove with Jiang Qiaoxi without saying a word until they arrived at the Lanqiao Villa District, where he dropped Wang Yue off at home.

……

When Wang Yue received the call from his father, he was quite surprised. After listening to the content of the call, he was speechless.

But since things had already come to this, Wang Yue could only call his friends to let them know. Actually, everyone lived quite close by, and the commotion had been heard by everyone, so as soon as Wang Yue made the call, all his friends ran over.

Of course, Cen Xiaoman wasn't among this group, since her home was some distance away.

Cen Xiaoman's current state is neither good nor bad. After returning home, she nervously waited for her mother to criticize her, but her mother acted as if nothing had happened and did not criticize her, let alone beat her.

Cen Xiaoman was initially very worried, thinking that she would be interrogated by both her parents when her father came back. However, her parents did talk to each other, but they didn't seem to care about disciplining her at all.

Then, just as Cen Xiaoman was feeling nervous, their phone rang. Cen Xiaoman was closest to the phone and answered it instinctively. She then heard Lin Qile say that Jiang Qiaoxi's parents had actually gotten divorced!
If it were just a divorce, that would be simpler. The problem is that after the divorce, one of them went to Anhui, while the other kicked Jiang Qiaoxi out of the house.

Cen Xiaoman was now even more worried about Jiang Qiaoxi's condition, so after hanging up the phone, she was somewhat absent-minded.

Seeing her daughter's state, Cen's mother asked helplessly, "So, what happened to Jiang Qiaoxi this time?"

Cen Xiaoman didn't hide anything and recounted the contents of the phone call before saying, "His parents are divorced. Jiang Qiaoxi was just taken to Wang Yue's place by his father. Right now, our friends are all there comforting Jiang Qiaoxi."

She hesitated when she said this, looking like she wanted to go but didn't dare to say it.

Mr. Cen understood his daughter's thoughts perfectly well. After thinking about what his wife had said, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "How about this, I'll arrange a car to take you there, and then pick you up at 8 p.m., okay?"

Upon hearing this, Cen Xiaoman looked at her father with great surprise and asked, "Dad, can I really go?"

Seeing Cen Xiaoman's delighted expression, Cen's mother knew that her daughter's heart was already with him, so she shook her head helplessly and said, "Jiang Qiaoxi is a good boy. He's probably very sad right now, and you, as his friends, need to comfort him. If you want to go, then go."

Cen Xiaoman immediately hugged her mother, kissed her on the cheek, and then said excitedly, "Mom, you're so good."

Seeing his daughter beaming with joy, Mr. Cen thought to himself that she had been taken advantage of by a pig, so he said jealously, "Only your mother is good, and your father is not, right?"

Cen Xiaoman quickly hugged her father and kissed him on the cheek before coaxing him, "Dad, you are both the best parents. I am so happy."

Cen Xiaoman successfully appeased her parents, and then their driver took her to Lanqiao Villa.

……

When Cen Xiaoman arrived, the place was bustling with activity; several people were chatting together.

When Lin Qile saw the WeChat message from Cen Xiaoman saying to come over, he saw the Cen family's car as he went to greet them. He excitedly said, "Xiaoman, you're so brave today! You even dared to tell your family about these things. You're my idol!"

As she said this, she went up and grabbed Cen Xiaoman. Just when Cen Xiaoman thought Lin Qile would pull her to sit next to him, Lin Qile pushed her towards Jiang Qiaoxi instead.

Fortunately, Lin Qile's technique may have been slightly flawed; he only pushed her onto the sofa where Jiang Qiaoxi was sitting, without actually pushing Jiang Qiaoxi onto himself, which relieved Cen Xiaoman.

Jiang Qiaoxi was also startled by Lin Qile's actions. He tried to reach out to help her but didn't have time. Fortunately, Cen Xiaoman eventually sat down on the sofa, which relieved him.

After Cen Xiaoman finished sitting up, still shaken, she met Jiang Qiaoxi's worried gaze. Her heart warmed, and she felt that Jiang Qiaoxi was a good person at this moment.

Cen Xiaoman quickly thought of Jiang Qiaoxi's ordeal and asked gently, "Jiang Qiaoxi, how are you?"

Seeing that the young couple seemed to have something to say, Wang Yue tugged at Lin Qile and then headed upstairs.

Lin Qile was engrossed in watching when she was suddenly pulled away. She was about to speak when she saw Wang Yue put his finger to his lips, making a gesture of promotion.

Lin Qile then realized what was happening and quickly followed Wang Yue to the second floor.

The others understood and quietly went to the second floor, leaving the downstairs space to the two of them.

Jiang Qiaoxi and Cen Xiaoman, however, were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't even notice their friends had left and continued chatting amongst themselves.

Lin Qile watched the two chatting quietly, not knowing what they were saying at all, but seeing that they only had eyes for each other, she said with great regret, "It's too far away here, I can't hear what they're saying."

Qin Yeyun quickly nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder what these two usually icy people will say when they're all together now?"
