Only You till the End - Chapter 43
Chapter 43: Turning Around and Marrying a Wealthy Bachelor
Mrs. Li went home in a hurry after saying a few words of comfort to prepare a meal for her family,
Shen Chen walked slowly along the road, passing a junction when a red sports car stopped beside her.
Ye Mei poked her head out of the car window and took off her branded sunglasses. “Where are you heading to? I will give you a ride.”
If she was remembering it correctly, it was her fourth time meeting Ye Mei.
She really felt that this woman was the most important interlude in her life, where she would always appear during the lowest point of her life.
“There’s no need for you to do that.” Shen Chen smiled at her, looking unnatural.
Ye Mei smiled, thinking Shen Chen was being polite. “Aren’t we friends? Shouldn’t friends help one another?”
Since Ye Mai made the offer, she thought it was only proper that she accepted it. “Thank you, then. I am going to No. 388, Haikou Street.”
“Get in.”
The journey took eight minutes before the car stopped at the destination.
Ye Mei unbuckled her safe belt and looked over at Shen Chen. “Do you want me to accompany you?”
Shen Chen shook her head. “No need. I am meeting my mother-in-law.”
Recalling what she said in the bar that night, Ye Mei could not help but frown. “Meet your mother-in-law? She hasn’t forgiven you for the miscarriage?”
“Mhm,” Shen Chen nodded lightly.
Ye Mei had no intention of interfering at first, but she lost control of herself. “She has been a daughter-in-law before. Why couldn’t she be understanding?”
Shen Chen sighed. “Yeah, she called me early in the morning, asking me to sign the divorce papers!”
Ye Mei became furious for a moment. “No big deal. Sign it!”
“You are pretty with a curvy body. You can just turn around and marry a wealthy bachelor.”
“Miscarriage isn’t a big deal. She will be mad when she sees you having a dozen children next time!”
A dozen? Did she think she was a pig?
Shen Chen remained silent.
Ye Mei was always proud of herself for being rational, but today, she was being self-willed. “I will go with you!”
Shen Chen had rejected her, but Ye Mei was adamant to follow her.
No. 388, Bamboo Sea Teahouse.
It was an upscale leisure and entertainment venue, most of the patrons of which were the rich and powerful.
“Mrs. Mu, I heard that your son has just come back from studying abroad. He must be even more capable than before.”
“Agree. The way I see it, Mu Bai is the most promising man in the Mu family. He will certainly achieve something big in life next time!”
“I couldn’t agree more.”
Liang Yinqiu had a bright smile on her face as the women fawned on her. “Oh, please don’t praise my son.”
Age is cruel. As graceful as she looked, the expensive makeup still could not conceal the wrinkles on her face.
“We are just being honest. Your son is really capable and able to take charge of the business at such a young age.”
“Given a few more years, he would become a prominent figure in town.”
“Please don’t forget us by then, Mrs. Mu. Remember to give our sons a helping hand.”
While they were going all out to flatter Liang Yinqiu, not far away, Shen Chen glanced in their direction with a mysterious look in her eyes.
Following her eyes, Ye Mei’s sight landed on Liang Yinqiu.
She thought the person looked familiar, but she could not recall when she had met her before.
The few wealthy women immediately became silent when they saw someone approaching their direction.
