Ji Xiao subconsciously looked at Gu Jin. When she saw that he did not respond, she looked away.

Seeing that Ji Xiao did not speak, Su Youqing continued, "I don't mean anything else. It's just that you're a little girl and need to find a man to rely on, right?"

"You wasted two years on Gu Jin. If it weren't for you, Gu Jin and I wouldn't be what we are today. It's all to thank you."

As she spoke, Su Youqing sighed to herself. "Actually, I've thought about it. Even if you don't divorce for the rest of your lives and I don't have a wife status for the rest of my life, it doesn't matter. It's enough as long as I can stay by Gu Jin's side."

"Qing." Gu Jin lowered her voice and wrapped her arms around Su Youqing, who looked a little upset. "Don't talk nonsense, Youqing."

Ji Xiao swallowed her bitterness and said with a smile, "Okay, thank you for introducing a boyfriend to me, Youqing."

Su Youqing immediately beamed with joy. "I'll remember this. I happen to know a few good people here, and their family backgrounds are passable. I'll introduce them to you when the time comes. You can pick a suitable one to get along with first."

"As for your marriage... When the time comes, Gu Jin and I can personally explain it to the man. We can prove to him that you are still a virgin..."

Ji Xiao nodded. After exchanging a few pleasantries, she fell silent.

She could understand the grudge Su Youqing had against her, so she tries to speak according to Su Youqing's heart and minimize Ji Xiao herself existence as much as possible.

"When the child is born, Xiaoxiao, you can be the child's godmother. Thank you for your contribution to our family."

Before leaving, Su Youqing took the hand of Ji Xiao and said with a smile.

Until Ji Xiao got into the taxi, she was still reminiscing about that sentence, 'Our family, what beautiful words.'.

Ji Xiao, what others can get was something you would never expect in your lifetime.

This hurdle had to be overcome sooner or later.

It was time for her to live for herself.

...

Ji Xiao did not rush home. Instead, she went to a company to apply for a job.

Before the divorce, Ji Xiao had been working for Gu's Group. But after the divorce, she had no reason to stay there any longer, so she had submitted several resumes a few days ago.

While waiting for the interview, a hand patted her on the shoulder.

"Ji Xiao?"

"I'm Jiang Yi!"

Jiang Yi was a classmate of Ji Xiao. Coincidentally, the two of them went to the same high school and university. In their junior year, Jiang Yi had already gone abroad. Ji Xiao did not expect to meet him here today.

"Are you here for the interview too?" Ji Xiao asked with a smile.

Jiang Yi shrugged. "Pretty much. This is my company."

This was the largest business district in A City. Looking out of the French window, it was prosperous.

Ji Xiao took the glass of water from Jiang Yi and thanked him with a smile.

"When I was in college, I always heard about your ambition. I didn't expect you to really start your own company."

Jiang Yi smiled. "What's wrong? it's Gu Jin's company that can't afford supporting you anymore? Does the grandiose Gu family's daughter-in-law still have to come out and find a job on her own?"

Ji Xiao felt her heart skip a beat and her smile froze on her face.

Back then, Gu Jin was a legend in A University, both in his studies and other aspects. The news of the two of them getting married had caused a sensation in the school.

Jiang Yi could guess what was going on when he saw how Ji Xiao reacted.

"When you insisted on getting married, you should have thought of this day a long time ago."

Jiang Yi leaned back on the sofa and narrowed his eyes. "I think we'll soon receive news of Gu Jin and Su Youqing getting married."

"That's his business." Ji Xiao lowered her head, and her hand holding the cup turned pale. "It has nothing to do with me."

"Do you know how obvious your disagreement is?" Jiang Yi patted Ji Xiao on the shoulder. "You still love him, don't you?"

Of course, she loved him.

She didn't dare to talk about it. She only dared to love him in her heart.

In the end, Ji Xiao decided to work for Jiang Yi. She needed a job and an opportunity.

The two of them had a meal together before Jiang Yi sent her home.

Along the way, the two of them talked about a lot of interesting things from their school days, and Ji Xiao's suppressed mood gradually became happier.

The car stopped at the door.

"I'll inform HR later. You can rest for a few days before going to work." Jiang Yi looked sideways at Ji Xiao.

"Thank you."

Ji Xiao opened the car door and looked up to see Gu Jin leaning against the door with a gloomy expression.

"You... why are you here?"

Subconsciously, Ji Xiao closed the car door and leaned over to block the window.

Gu Jin looked at her with a deep gaze, as if he could see through her and stare at the man in the car window.

"He is..."

Ji Xiao wanted to explain, but on second thought, she realized that since they had decided to divorce, there was no need to do so?

He probably wouldn't care.

"Mr. Gu, what are you looking for me for?"

Her tone was flat and distant.

"My mother said that she wanted to invite you home for dinner tonight, so she asked me to pick you up."

"Didn't you tell her about our divorce?" Ji Xiao asked.

Gu Jin hummed in agreement. "Her old weakness has flared up again recently. She can't be agitated. I'll tell her later."

Ji Xiao lowered her head and got into his car without another word.

The man stared at her and watched her open the car door with her fair and tender hands. Then she carefully pulled up the hem of her skirt, revealing her fair and smooth calves, and got into the car with her head down.

Gu Jin suddenly remembered that the woman's shy expression from last night was like that of a frightened rabbit, making one's heart tremble.

...

The car stopped at the gate of the old house.

Ji Xiao got out of the car and was about to walk forward when she was suddenly stopped by a large hand. While she was in a daze, the hand turned over and clasped her fingers together.

！！！

Gu Jin remained calm.

"A complete set of acting."

Acting?

He didn't even attend the wedding ceremony back then. What was he doing now?

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, you're here?"

When Gu Jin 's mother saw Ji Xiao, she happily waved at her.

"Mom."

Ji Xiao released Gu Jin's hand, ran to Mrs. Gu with a smile, and said sweetly.

Gu Jin clenched his fists weakly when the warmth in his palms suddenly disappeared.

"You still know I'm your mom? I haven't seen you in so many days!" Mrs. Gu hummed and looked at Gu Jin. "And you, my son, you don't treat me as your mother, do you? You don't want a daughter-in-law, so you have a mistress outside!"

Gu Jin was annoyed, but he did not say anything.

Ji Xiao quietly tugged at the hem of Mrs. Gu's clothes. She had been married into the Gu family for two years and had a very good relationship with Mrs. Gu. Although Mrs. Gu had complained before, she had never mentioned it to her in public.

This time, she must have heard the news that Su Youqing was pregnant.

"Don't speak up for him, Xiaoxiao. Let me make this clear today! As long as I'm alive, Ji Xiao will be the only daughter-in-law of the Gu family! As for the mistress outside, she's pregnant with whose bastard. Don't even think about marrying into our family!"
