Chapter 590 The Matter Between Shi Wenyan and Jiang Shen
"Shi Wenyan... What a coincidence!"
For some reason, Jiang Duoduo actually said to Shi Wenyan, "What a coincidence."
"It's...it's a bit of a coincidence..."
"I... I'm taking the baby to visit his aunt. Duoduo, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. Let's meet for tea next time!"
Shi Wenyan was caught off guard by her sudden encounter with Jiang Duoduo. She wondered if Jiang Duoduo had overheard her argument with Jiang Shen.
In her moment of panic, Shi Wenyan had no time for pleasantries with Jiang Duoduo, so she told Jiang Duoduo to go ahead and do her work.
When Jiang Shen saw Jiang Duoduo, he also looked a little embarrassed.
He recalled that when he first met Shi Wenyan and Jiang Duoduo in Shajiang, he was a successful and charming man, but now he had fallen so low that he had to borrow money to make ends meet.
Jiang Duoduo was still as radiant as when they first met, while Shi Wenyan beside him had long since become a greasy woman with vicious words.
Therefore, he felt embarrassed even to go up and greet Jiang Duoduo.
Jiang Duoduo understood from Shi Wenyan's words that she didn't want to talk to her anymore.
Actually, Jiang Duoduo didn't have much to say to them, so she tactfully offered Shi Wenyan a way out, saying, "Okay, let's have tea together sometime! I really have something urgent to attend to right now!"
After saying that, Jiang Duoduo closed the car window and drove off.
……
Jiang Duoduo only learned about Shi Wenyan and Jiang Shen's affair from Shen Lanzhi later.
Ever since this trendy auntie saw Jiang Duoduo's exceptional skill level in King of Glory, she has frequently invited Jiang Duoduo to play duo queue together.
She knew that Jiang Duoduo and Shi Wenyan were classmates, so after learning about her nephew's messy affairs, she pulled Jiang Duoduo aside to complain.
He said that his nephew's once happy family had fallen into such a state, and that he was partly to blame, while the other half of the blame lay with Shi Wenyan.
A young girl who doesn't learn good things, actually becomes a mistress.
It was also said that Ren Yao was actually a very capable woman, and that a large portion of the business of her and Jiang Shen's factory was brought in by Ren Yao.
Although Shen Lanzhi and Ren Yao don't get along well and have little in common, Shen Lanzhi still thinks highly of Ren Yao's abilities in work and career.
She believed that Jiang Shen's life would only get better if he was with Ren Yao.
Now, for the sake of Shi Wenyan, Jiang Shen has divorced Ren Yao.
To be precise, Ren Yao found evidence of Jiang Shen's infidelity, and after transferring most of their joint assets, she divorced Jiang Shen without looking back.
Without the factory, Jiang Shen lost his job, and without a job, he lost his source of income.
Now Jiang Shen and Shi Wenyan have to rent a house and raise their child, and his savings have long been depleted.
It's not easier for middle-aged men to find jobs than for middle-aged women; people either look down on Jiang Shen because of his age or because he lacks work experience.
The two are now living a very difficult life, borrowing money from all over the place to make ends meet.
Shen Lanzhi also said that she has lent them 20,000 yuan in installments so far.
No matter what, Jiang Shen is her nephew, and she can't completely ignore Shen Lanzhi.
Now Jiang Shen's parents are cursing Shi Wenyan as a jinx, saying she caused their son to be separated from his wife and children and left him destitute!
Jiang Duoduo felt quite saddened after hearing this.
However, Jiang Duoduo felt no sympathy for Shi Wenyan in her current state, since she had chosen this path herself.
……
anyway.
After Jiang Duoduo retrieved her belongings from Jingsheng Jiayuan, she went directly to the hotel dormitory to pick up Xu Susu. The two then went to the high-speed rail station together to wait for Chen Shumin and her group.
It's only 5:30 now, and there's still an hour before Chen Shumin's high-speed train arrives at the station.
Jiang Duoduo parked the car, and the two of them ordered a large portion of fries, a portion of finger-licking chicken nuggets, a portion of Orleans roasted chicken wings, and two hot thick milk lattes at the KFC in the high-speed rail station.
"Sister Duoduo, I swapped shifts with my colleagues for a few days. Can I stay at your villa for a few days too? You know, my house is under renovation, and many parts are still not finished."
Xu Susu sat opposite Jiang Duoduo. She first squeezed a bag of ketchup onto a corner of her plate, then picked up some fries, dipped them in a thick layer of ketchup, and finally gave them to Jiang Duoduo to eat with a smile.
Jiang Duoduo knew that this girl's attempts to please her meant something.
I thought Xu Susu wanted to take a few more days off for the New Year, but I didn't expect that she wanted to stay in the villa in Daxi Village.
"That's it?"
Jiang Duoduo stared at Xu Susu with a look of suspicion.
She couldn't quite believe that her cousin was being so cautious just to stay at her house for a few days.
"And...and I'd also like two vouchers for the hotel's buffet..."
Xu Susu squinted her eyes and grinned, offering Jiang Duoduo a chicken wing with a fawning expression.
"Why do you need two vouchers? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Jiang Duoduo took the chicken wings and asked with a smile.
"I wish he were my boyfriend!"
Xu Susu muttered something subconsciously, then realized she had said the wrong thing and immediately corrected herself, saying that he was just an ordinary classmate who was coming to stay at Huayue on the Lantern Festival and she wanted to show her hospitality by treating him to a buffet.
"Your classmate who seems ordinary is actually a guy, right? And he's quite handsome!"
Jiang Duoduo suddenly moved her face closer to Xu Susu, making Xu Susu's face turn bright red.
She didn't expect that Jiang Duoduo would see right through her little scheme.
"Oh, Sister Duoduo, just tell me if you're going to give it to me or not! You're a big boss, you wouldn't be so stingy with your cousin, would you!"
"That's hard to say! A dinner buffet voucher costs 398 yuan, so two would be almost 800 yuan! Your cousin's money doesn't grow on trees!"
"However, since my cousin wants to pursue him, I, as her older cousin, should naturally be more generous."
"So, Sister Duoduo, do you agree? Thank you, Sister Duoduo!"
Xu Susu happily took Jiang Duoduo's hand, which was holding a chicken wing, but suddenly felt something was wrong. "Sister Duoduo, you're joking with me again. I'm not trying to pursue anyone. I'm just being a good host."
"Alright, alright, you've done your duty as a host! You can pick up the buffet voucher from my office later."
"You hurry up and eat your chicken wings. I'll go order some more food to take away. My aunt and the others can eat something in my car to tide them over. We probably won't get to Daxi Village until after eight o'clock."
Jiang Duoduo quickly finished the chicken wings in her hand, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and went to the service desk to order again.
"Okay! I'll eat right away!"
Xu Susu realized that her cousin was actually a pretty good person when she wasn't scolding her.
The thought that she could have dinner with her crush without spending a fortune filled Xu Susu with sweet joy.
Jiang Duoduo was too lazy to order from each item at the service counter, so she directly ordered two family buckets for her aunt and the others.
Thinking that my cousins would definitely like these fried chicken burgers, I ordered a few more.
By the time they finished eating and brought back two more family buckets from KFC, it was already 6:20 p.m.
Back in the car, Jiang Duoduo sent a WeChat message to her aunt, asking if they were almost there.
