After the divorce, my ex-husband and son lined up to pursue me.

Chapter 12 Follow me home
"Aren't you the same?"

As Jiang Xia spoke, he stood up and said, "Likewise, what right do you have to criticize me?"

Then, she glanced at Song Nanqi, who had also stood up, and explained softly, "He misunderstood, don't mind him."

Song Nanqi nodded, but he could also deduce the identities of the people from those few words.

He turned his gaze back to Ruan Muhuai, scrutinizing the wealthy man who had so effortlessly married the talented woman. A hint of mockery flickered in his narrowed eyes, and he even extended a polite hand in a symbolic gesture.

"Hello, my name is Song Nanqi. You must be the wealthy and powerful Mr. Ruan. It's a pleasure to meet you."

These words were anything but flattering; the sarcasm and ridicule were blatant.

She has a sharp tongue.

Ruan Muhuai frowned and pushed Song Nanqi's hand away: "What did you say?"

"Do you know how many people envy you?" Song Nanqi replied irrelevantly, his gentle face still bearing its usual warmth. However, he glanced at Jiang Xia and then said to Ruan Muhuai, "Being able to marry Jiang Xia is a blessing that can't be earned in eight lifetimes."

Ruan Muhuai understood immediately; this was a sarcastic remark that he didn't know how to cherish Jiangxia.

He scoffed, "Looks like you're one of those envious people too, but what can you do about it?"

After a slight pause, Ruan Muhuai unexpectedly wrapped his arms around Jiang Xia's waist, pulling her into his embrace. In that instant, he added, "She's still my wife. Even if you wanted to steal her away, you wouldn't have the chance!"

Before Jiang Xia could react, Ruan Muhuai grabbed her and walked out, coldly saying, "Come home with me."

Because there were other people present and it was in a restaurant, Jiang Xia held back and didn't say anything, but was dragged away by Ruan Muhuai.

Xin Rou stood there, watching the two figures from behind, a fleeting thought flashing across her eyes.

Song Nanqi frowned, not intending to pay attention to Xin Rou. Just as he was about to pay the bill and leave, he heard Xin Rou say, "Mr. Song, I don't know what your relationship with Sister Jiang Xia is, but you should know that she has a husband and a son. It wouldn't be good for you to bother her any further, would it?"

Song Nanqi paused, then looked up at Xin Rou with interest: "Miss, why judge others based on your own narrow-mindedness and perspective?"

Xin Rou was taken aback.

"I see that you are a modern woman who has received higher education, so you should understand that being a mistress is not only shameful, but it will also bring shame to your parents."

Song Nanqi bluntly exposed her, then smiled at Xin Rou, who was stunned and pale-faced, before waving his hand and leaving gracefully.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xia struggled incessantly as soon as he left the restaurant.

"Let me go! Ruan Muhuai! Let me go!"

Ruan Muhuai ignored her and forcefully forced her into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce.

He slammed the door shut and went around to the other side. After getting into the car, he casually tugged at his collar. Before Jiang Xia could explode, he suddenly leaned over her and grabbed her chin, saying, "What are you doing?!"

"Chaochao is sick, can't you understand?!"

Ruan Yuanchao's health was never very good; he was often ill, which was largely due to his premature birth.

Jiang Xia felt extremely guilty, which led to increasingly heated arguments with Ruan Muhuai.

because……

When she was seven months pregnant, heavily pregnant, she stayed at home to rest. However, while looking for books in the study, she accidentally discovered a photo of Ruan Muhuai and Xin Rou.

Many, and all very close. They embraced, their smiles radiant, from school uniforms to suits…

There was also a brocade box pushed to the corner, inside which was a dazzling diamond ring.

That was the first time Jiang Xia learned of Xin Rou's existence. It was like being struck by lightning, and in that instant, all her hopes and fantasies about marriage and Ruan Muhuai were shattered.

"what are these?"

Unfortunately, Jiang Xia, who discovered these things, was also spotted by Ruan Muhuai, who had returned to retrieve her belongings. She immediately confronted him, holding up the photos and the diamond ring, asking, "Is the person in the photo your first love? Or your ex-girlfriend?"

It's not an indecent photo, and besides, the photo looks like it's from a long time ago.

Jiang Xia just wanted to get to the bottom of things and wasn't really angry. "Mu Huai, why are you still keeping these things? We're already married, and our baby is about to be born. Can't we just live a good life together?"

She spoke earnestly at the time and immediately wanted to tear up those photos.

But what did Ruan Muhuai do?

He stepped forward and snatched the photos and diamond ring directly from Jiang Xia's hands, saying, "These are none of your business."

A cold remark, just like the indifference that has prevailed in the past year since our marriage.

"How can you say it's irrelevant?" Jiang Xia was shocked and angry. If Ruan Muhuai hadn't stopped her and had just let her tear up the photos, nothing would have happened. She wouldn't have made a fuss or lost her temper.

The problem is, Ruan Muhuai is protecting those photos, which are far more valuable than any rare treasure!
This shows what?
No woman is stupid; her sixth sense immediately kicked in!
"You still care about her, you still have her in your heart! But what about me? What about our child?!"

Jiang Xia didn't know what was wrong with her that day. Perhaps it was due to the emotional control of pregnancy, or perhaps it was the dissatisfaction of being ignored for so long. She vented all of this like a volcanic eruption, which also caused her to have a miscarriage.

She was rushed to the hospital and endured three agonizing days before finally giving birth to premature Ruan Yuanchao via cesarean section.

Every time her son fell ill, Jiang Xia felt guilty and remorseful, but she also harbored deep anger towards Ruan Muhuai and Xin Rou...

Even now, as she struggled to push Ruan Muhuai away, he held her even tighter. "Isn't Chaochao your son? You push everything onto me, but what about you? Just so you can have fun with other men?!"

Ruan Muhuai's cold voice was like poison, each word striking Jiang Xia's heart hard.

"You..." Jiang Xia's usual composure prevented her from saying anything too harsh to anyone, but at this moment she was so angry that she pushed him away with all her might and said angrily, "How dare you talk to me like that!"

Ruan Muhuai's chin was scratched by her fingernails, leaving a slight bloodstain. It didn't hurt, but it made him instantly realize that something was quietly slipping out of his control.

He stared coldly at Jiang Xia with a deep gaze, and after a long while, he finally uttered, "Waiting to go home!"

Jiang Xia was breathing heavily and tried to turn around to open the car door, but the car had already started and was on the road, and the door was locked.

She was so angry that she felt a sharp pain in her chest, and her mind was also foggy and turbulent.

That does not work.

It would be bad if the disease developed.

Jiang Xia forced himself to rummage through his bag and pulled out a bottle of medicine. He poured out two pills and swallowed them without even drinking any water.

Just as Ruan Muhuai was about to open his laptop, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Xia's actions out of the corner of his eye and glanced over as well: "What medicine?"

"What's it to you?" Jiang Xia retorted irritably, stuffing the medicine bottle back into her bag, but her wrist was grabbed by Ruan Muhuai.
