Sit at the wrong table on a blind date, get married to the heir of a billionaire family

"That's good. You go to work now, don't be late."

"okay."

Wenwen hung up the phone, said goodbye to her mother and Lele inside, kissed Lele on the head, and then closed the door and went downstairs.

She straightened her coat and glanced at the message notifications on her phone.

She usually leaves home around this time; the bus stop is just a few hundred meters from the entrance of the residential area.

Wenwen walks quickly. Since starting work, she has become much more conscious of time than before.

I used to be slow at cooking, grocery shopping, and taking care of my child, but since I started working, I've become more and more like a professional woman, walking with a confident stride.

She mentally calculated that it would take about 3 minutes to walk to the bus stop, and a 40-minute ride to the company. Once at her workstation, the first thing she did was get a cup of hot water, then tidy up her desk, turn on her computer, review yesterday's work, and finally start working on today's new tasks...

Just as she stepped out of the residential compound and was lost in thought, a familiar voice called her name:

"Wenwen!"

Wenwen stopped in surprise, turned her head, and saw a familiar yet repulsive face.

It was none other than her unreasonable former mother-in-law—Zheng Hongjie's mother.

Zheng's mother had a big smile on her face, and she was still wearing that old designer down jacket.

She greeted me with a smile, as if she had been waiting for me.

"Wenwen, what a coincidence!"

Wenwen felt unlucky.

I had just finished talking to Sister Ganqi about Zheng Hongjie on the phone when I ran into his mother as soon as I stepped out of the neighborhood. Just what I feared most happened.

Zheng's mother had obviously been waiting for a long time. With a fake smile, she greeted them warmly: "Wenwen, it's been a while since we last met. Are you rushing to work so early?"

Wenwen, too lazy to play games with her, asked directly, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

"Why are you calling me 'Auntie'? It sounds so formal."

Zheng's mother drawled, her smile growing increasingly fake, "I used to be your mother-in-law, practically your second mother."

Wenwen didn't want to say much to her: "Are you just taking a stroll here? Then you can continue."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Wait a minute!"

Zheng's mother called out to Wenwen, "I just happened to be passing by today and I was waiting for you. I wanted to say a few words to you."

Honestly, it's always "just passing by" and "waiting on purpose," is it a coincidence or intentional? Wenwen couldn't be bothered to call her out.

However, Wenwen felt a sense of unease: Zheng's mother never did anything without a reason, so her coming to see her was definitely not for anything good.

She glanced down at her phone; the bus was almost here.

"I don't have time, and we have nothing to talk about!"

"Don't be so formal! Look at you, you've become a completely different person at work since your divorce. You treat time like gold and are becoming more and more like a career woman."

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie."

Wenwen teased, "When it comes to work experience, I'm no match for your son Zheng Hongjie. By the way, I heard he lost his job?"

Mrs. Zheng looked a little embarrassed. "Oh dear, don't mention my son. Although your marriage didn't last, I was your mother-in-law for a while after all. Don't be so cold."

Wenwen kept walking forward, with Zheng's mother following closely behind, clearly having a lot to say.

"Actually... I don't have anything else to say, I just wanted to ask about Gan Qi..."

Wenwen slowed her pace.

Zheng Hongjie called last night to ask about his brother-in-law's identity, and today his mother came over in person.

Could it be that Sister Gan's identity has really been exposed?

Wenwen's heart began to race, but she remained outwardly calm.

"Auntie, why do you always meddle in other people's business? If you want to ask about Sister Ganqi, you should just go and ask her directly."

"It's inconvenient, you know, Gan Qi has an independent personality and a fiery temper, she's like a shrew..."

She quickly changed her words: "She's a person with a temper. We had some misunderstandings with her before, so she definitely won't see me."

"Don't say that. Actually, things between us were pretty ugly... How could you have the nerve to come looking for me?" Wenwen said.

Zheng's mother gave another awkward smile.

This young lady's tongue is noticeably sharper than before after her divorce. Although she was prepared, she didn't expect Wenwen to become so shrewd.

"Wenwen, although you now have a proper job and your life is on track, you still need to pay attention to your manners when you speak and be polite to your elders."

"polite?"

Wenwen snorted coldly: "When I was polite to you before, did you ever give me a nice look?"

She gritted her teeth: "Do you think I've forgotten everything that happened before? You bullied me like that on the street, and now you're chatting with me like nothing happened? You've got some nerve!"

Zheng's mother: "It's all in the past. All the unpleasant things from before are over... We still have a bond."

Her biggest advantage as an old woman is her thick skin. She had such an ugly argument with Wenwen in the street before, but now she's all smiles.

"Gan Qi is a very outstanding girl. I heard that her husband's surname is Meng?"

Wenwen: "I don't know."

"You must know that her husband's surname is Meng, and I heard he works for a big company? Which big company is it? Do you contact your brother-in-law often? Do you have any photos of him?"

Sure enough, the old woman wanted to find out Gan Qi's identity; she must have seen that magazine! She recognized the photo in it!

"Auntie, if you want to check household registration, go to the household registration office. Why are you asking me? My brother-in-law isn't my husband. How would I know anything about his situation? Goodbye."

"The aunt was just expressing concern."

"Mind your own business! Your son is unemployed and looks like a stray dog, and you still have time to care about others?"

You can't blame Wenwen for using harsh words; she gained a deeper understanding of human nature after starting work.

A person of good character will consider manners in their words and actions. But for a despicable person who is only interested in profiting from others, there's no need to show them any respect!

The more you give them face, the more they will take advantage of you and bully your kindness as if it were weakness.

"Oh dear, your words are getting uglier and uglier..."

"I'm sorry, the Wenwen who used to have such a sweet voice is dead."

With a forced smile, Zheng's mother said, "I just want to know if Gan Qi married someone extraordinary? Is her husband related to the Meng family? ... If you can give me even a tiny bit of information, I promise I won't tell anyone else."

Wenwen rolled her eyes at her, as if she were looking at a lunatic.

She takes herself way too seriously.

Wenwen: "Auntie, since you like to pry into other people's affairs so much, why don't you ask when your son will find a new job? Your daughter hasn't been working either, right? Now there are two people in the family waiting to eat. Are you planning to starve every day?"

Although Zheng's mother had a smile on her face, she was somewhat speechless, despite her thick skin.

I never expected that I would be confronted like this by my former daughter-in-law on the street.

The key issue is that without family members around to help her, she can no longer pull off the tantrums and tantrums she used to do.

“Wenwen…”

"Don't call me anymore. I feel nauseous just hearing your voice. I probably won't even be able to eat lunch today."

"you……"

Just then, the bus arrived.

Wenwen straightened her clothes and swiped her card to get on the bus as quickly as possible.

"Hey?"

As Zheng's mother watched Wenwen get into the car, she gritted her teeth in anger. In just a few days, this girl had become more and more arrogant.

Honestly, she just came to find out about Gan Qi, and she had to put up with this kind of humiliation.

Just then, her daughter Zheng Huihui called: "Mom, how is it? Is she willing to tell the truth?"

"Don't even mention it. She's become so sharp-tongued and doesn't give me any face at all. I've completely lost face."
