Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband

Chapter 160: Just to make it easier to control

Xiang Zhiqiang had been rejecting Cui Xue because his wife and children were around.

But at this moment, there was no one around him, which made Xiang Zhiqiang feel a little lonely. His attitude softened.

This gave Cui Xue more confidence. After a few interactions, Cui Xue finally won over Xiang Zhiqiang, and the two of them established a relationship.

But Xiang Zhiqiang did not dare to tell Cui Xue about Erni's existence.

The two of them got together not long after they confirmed their relationship.

Two years later, when Erni sent her mother-in-law away and her child needed to go to school, Erni brought her child back to Beitan from the countryside.

At that time, Xiang Zhiqiang had been transferred to the Education Bureau because of Cui Xue.

In everyone's eyes, Xiang Zhiqiang was promoted, and Xiang Zhiqiang himself has always thought so.

Everyone thinks they are a perfect match.

I just don’t understand why Cui Xue and Xiang Zhiqiang haven’t gotten a marriage certificate or held a wedding.

Even though Cui Xue was pregnant at the time, she did not hold a wedding, which made the Education Bureau and everyone around her feel very strange.

But only Xiang Zhiqiang and Cui Xue's family know that Xiang Zhiqiang is not single now.

However, I don’t know how Xiang Zhiqiang appeased Cui Xue and her family. They didn’t even ask for a divorce, but instead quickly got a marriage certificate with Cui Xue.

When she said this, Liu Yuanyuan sneered. Judging from the situation of the three little mice following her during this period of time, this family was full of weirdos.

I'm afraid that everyone in Cui Xue's family at that time thought that Xiang Zhiqiang's family was poor and his seriously ill mother was a burden.

If Cui Xue married Xiang Zhiqiang at that time, she would not only have to take care of his bedridden mother, but she would also have to pay for it.

It would be better to keep it like this and wait until Xiang Zhiqiang's mother dies.

This way, Xiang Zhiqiang, who is alone, is easier to control, and his daughter won't have to suffer.

Mother Liu agreed with Liu Yuanyuan's guess.

Because Mother Liu also found out that Cui Xue's mother had actually looked for Erni the day after Erni sent the old lady back to Beitan.

Cui Xue's mother thought Erni was a country girl and could be easily dismissed as long as she was paid enough money.

But unexpectedly, Erni was a tough person. She did not ask for money. Instead, when Cui Xue's belly became bigger and bigger and could no longer be covered, she went to the Education Bureau and the school where Cui Xue used to work and made a big scene, and then divorced with her son.

Erni even directly refused to ask for any child support from Xiang Zhiqiang and cut off all ties with him.

She directly announced that Xiang Zhiqiang would never see his son again and that his son would never support Xiang Zhiqiang. She also changed the child's surname to Li, just like Erni. She resolutely gave up the relationship that had lasted for more than ten years.

All of a sudden, Xiang Zhiqiang and Cui Xue became famous throughout the entire education department.

However, Cui's father is the deputy director of the Education Bureau, and Xiang Zhiqiang is also a section chief in the Education Bureau.

Therefore, the people below would only talk about them secretly behind their backs, and would not publicly ridicule them. However, because of Xiang Zhiqiang and Cui Xue's situation, the promotion of Cui's father and Xiang Zhiqiang was somewhat affected.

Liu Yuanyuan was a little surprised: "Mom, you mean Xiang Zhiqiang was already a section chief in the Education Bureau more than 10 years ago. After more than 10 years, he is still a section chief. Has he not moved at all?"

Mother Liu nodded. "That's right. The most important thing is that although Cui Xue's father was also affected, he eventually rose from deputy director to director, and even held various titles such as committee representative.

But Xiang Zhiqiang has remained in the position of section chief for the past 10 years, and even his title seems to have remained the same.”

When Liu Yuanyuan heard what her mother said, she opened her mouth and suddenly understood why Xiang Zhiqiang valued this promotion so much. He even forced Xiang Yushan to apologize to him for this promotion.

If he doesn't have another chance this time, he may never have another chance in his life. Even if he gets a promotion, it will almost be the end of it. It is very likely that the position he will be promoted to next time will be the position he will retire from.

But why is this happening?

Mother Liu noticed Liu Yuanyuan's confusion and smiled slyly, but this time she didn't keep her in suspense.

"So, what Erni said back then came true. When she left, she sneered at Xiang Zhiqiang and said, 'Why do you think the Cui family likes you, Xiang Zhiqiang?

It's because you, Xiang Zhiqiang, have no one behind you, no backing, no connections, and are just a lone man who is easy to control.

Do you think that marrying Cui Xue is the way to success? Let me tell you, with the character of the Cui family, they might just let you become a son-in-law. Don't forget that they have an underage brother.'"

Liu Yuanyuan still didn't understand and blinked. But Liu's father said in surprise, "So Xiang Zhiqiang is just being used as a tool by the Cui family?"

Mother Liu laughed disdainfully and said, "You've already praised him as a tool. He's just being used as a stud. As for me, I went to the Education Bureau and made inquiries today."

How could there be no promotion opportunities in the past ten years? There were even several times when the newly transferred people didn't know the ropes and specifically recommended Xiang Zhiqiang in order to please Cui Xue's father, but her father rejected them all.

The excuse was that he still needed to practice hard and wasn't ready for a major role. Otherwise, with Xiang Zhiqiang's drive and ambition, he might have already made it to the position of deputy director, and then spent another year training at a local college the following year before returning to become director.

Why would I still be a section chief now? "

Only then did Liu Yuanyuan react. She remembered what the little mice had told her about the Cui family, and said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "So the Cui family did it on purpose. They were afraid that Xiang Zhiqiang would climb too fast and take Cui's father's place, and they were also afraid that Cui Xue would lose control of Xiang Zhiqiang.

That’s why we didn’t let him get promoted. This way, Xiang Zhiqiang would always have to look after the Cui family father and daughter and be dependent on them forever.”

Mother Liu immediately gave Liu Yuanyuan an approving look, but then she remembered that Liu Yuanyuan was still a child, and her expression changed again: "How can a child know so many things?"

Liu Yuanyuan chuckled, but couldn't help shaking her head. How could someone as ambitious as Xiang Zhiqiang always crawl at the feet of others?

It seems that Xiang Zhiqiang and Cui Xue will still have a lot to do in this incident, and there must be something fishy going on behind their family.

While Liu Yuanyuan was thinking this, her mother continued smugly, "So, this time I took the opportunity to make a scene at the Education Bureau's gate."

When Liu Yuanyuan heard her mother say this, her eyes widened immediately. Her mother was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, but she also cared a lot about her reputation.

Normally, I would never do something like throwing a tantrum, crying, making a fuss, or even threatening to commit suicide.

When Mother Liu saw that Liu Yuanyuan and Father Liu were cooperating so well and making surprised expressions, she immediately smiled and continued to tell the story in a very moving voice.
