My ex-husband got engaged, I was reborn, and the young master of Beijing's elite circle went cr

She knew perfectly well what she meant by bringing Jian He here, yet she still asked that question.

This means that she doesn't really approve of her relationship with Jian He.

Cheng Yan said to Luo Ye with some displeasure, "Auntie, marriage is Jian He's private matter..."

Luo Ye rolled her eyes at Cheng Yan and scolded him, "You child, I am an elder. What's wrong with elders caring about their children's marriage? If they were all like you, not finding girlfriends or getting married, would the elders not even be allowed to ask?"

"You're getting more and more outrageous..."

Faced with Luo Ye's reprimand, Cheng Yan regretted bringing Jian He along today.

"Auntie..."

Cheng Yan left, intending to stop Luo Ye once again.

Unexpectedly, Jian He readily accepted Luo Ye's words at this moment.

She said, "Ayan, it's no problem. Aunt Luo just wants to get to know me a little better."

Turning to Luo Ye, she said, "Aunt Luo, I have divorced my ex-husband. The divorce proceedings are complete. We have a son from our marriage, and I have custody of him. That's all."

Jian He openly admitted to her divorce. She was just divorced; she hadn't stolen, robbed, or committed any heinous crimes. What was there to deny?

Faced with Jian He's openness, Luo Ye had been making plans.

Undoubtedly, Cheng Yan is outstanding. Given his own qualities and his prominent family background, no girl would be a good match for him.

The Jian family is in business, so if Jian He weren't remarried, it wouldn't be unreasonable for her to get to know Cheng Yan. However, now that Jian He is remarried and has a child, it's a bit inappropriate for her to be so close to Cheng Yan.

Luo Ye wasn't the kind of woman who was old-fashioned, nor did she look down on divorced women. She just felt that if Cheng Yan wanted to be with Jian He, Jian He's son would be a huge problem.

Even if she reluctantly agrees, what about the Cheng family...?

Since the ending was already foreseen, she, as the aunt, might as well play the villain this once.

After weighing the options, Luo Ye started asking Jian He again.

"Oh, I think I heard that you and your husband have a pretty good relationship... You even have a child together, how could you get a divorce?"

Jian He put down her chopsticks and said to Luo Ye, "Just because you have a child doesn't mean you can't get a divorce. It's the 21st century now, and there are many more people getting divorced."

"What happened? Whose fault is it?" Luo Ye completely ignored Cheng Yan's expression, which was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

Faced with Luo Ye's deliberate question, Jian He had no choice but to answer.

"Only the wearer knows if the shoes fit... If shoes rub against your feet, of course you have to throw them away... Aunt Luo, right?"

Jian He was already somewhat unhappy.

Luo Ye sighed, "That's true. Young people these days do everything on impulse. They already have children; it's not appropriate to get a divorce now."

Jian He retorted to Luo Ye, "Yes, it's not appropriate for young people to get divorced, and it's not appropriate for older people to get divorced either. I heard from my dad that you also got divorced three years ago, didn't you? By the way, do you have custody of your son and daughter?"

Jian He's voice was soft, and her words were full of concern for Luo Ye. In fact, she was just retaliating in her own way.

Your son and daughter are both divorced, so what right do you have to interfere in my divorce?

Luo Ye thought Jian He was easy to handle, but she didn't expect to kick a hornet's nest. Jian He's mouth was also very sharp and unforgiving.

To ease the awkwardness, Cheng Yanchong told Luo Ye to leave.

"Auntie, I see there are quite a few guests outside. You don't need to take care of us anymore, go and take care of the guests."

Luo Ye left in a hurry.

Watching Luo Ye leave, Jian He finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Without Luo Ye's presence, even the air felt fresher.

Cheng Yan changed seats and sat down very close to Jian He. He picked up a piece of stir-fried wood ear mushrooms with his chopsticks and placed it on the plate in front of Jian He.

He said, "Eat some wood ear fungus to cleanse your lungs... You had a chronic illness when you were a child, so dietary supplements are better than medicinal supplements."

Jian He raised her face and looked at Cheng Yan in front of her. The warmth in her heart surged even stronger.

She knew that the root of the illness Cheng Yan was referring to was the aftereffect of that time she choked on water.

In those years, she would cough incessantly whenever she caught a cold. Jian Qingshan consulted many famous doctors to treat Jian He, but the effects were not very obvious.

Later, she didn't know how she got better, although she would still occasionally cough after she became an adult.

Cheng Yan was very caring; when he served food to Jian He, Jian He didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

It's true that there's no harm without comparison. Compared to a man like Cheng Yan, Yin Muqiao is a piece of trash. If Yin Muqiao hadn't stolen Cheng Yan's credit back then, how could I have been so blind as to stay with such a piece of trash for so many years?

After dinner, Cheng Yan drove Jian He back to the hotel.

On the way, Jian He really wanted to thank Cheng Yan for jumping into the pool to save her when she was eight years old.

However, before he could speak, Cheng Yan spoke first.

He said, "Jian He, I'm sorry about tonight. I didn't expect my aunt to ask you such an embarrassing question. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have taken you to her place tonight."

Jian He smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's alright. It's only right for elders to show concern. Besides, I didn't lose out, did I?"

Hearing Jian He say that, Cheng Yan smiled slightly. As he drove, he glanced at Jian He sitting behind him in the rearview mirror.

He asked Jian He, "Everything has been settled. What are your plans now?"

Jian He thought for a moment and replied, "I haven't thought of anything yet. I just want to manage the family business well, take good care of my father, and raise Ruibao..."

"Have you thought about how to arrange things regarding your love for home and marriage?" Cheng Yan was eager to get the answer from Jian He.

Jian He pursed her lips.

She said, "I... haven't thought about it yet... I think it's best to let things take their course."

Hearing that she hadn't made up her mind, Cheng Yan stopped talking and drove Jian He back to their hotel.

After getting out of the car and saying goodnight to Cheng Yan, Jian He went to her floor.

Just as she arrived at her room door, Yin Muqiao, dressed in a suit, jumped out from the shadows. Jian He felt a jolt when she saw him.

She couldn't understand why Yin Muqiao seemed to be haunting her, always appearing wherever she was.

Yin Muqiao, on the other hand, stormed up to Jian He with a furious expression...
