After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?
Chapter 238 Impulse

Chapter 238: Chapter 238 Impulse

When Jiang Zhixun first had the accident, the doctor diagnosed him with temporary blindness.

Later, he recovered quickly and well, and after rejoining the team, no abnormal conditions appeared.

He successfully passed the re-flight assessment.

Shen Qingqing and the Jiang Family finally felt they could relax.

To celebrate this, Madam Jiang called Shen Qingqing, asking her to come home for a meal.

"Your birthday is coming up, and I checked the dates; that day happens to be a Sunday. You’re off work, and Zhixun is on leave. When the time comes, you both can come back, and we’ll have a meal together."

If Madam Jiang hadn’t mentioned it, Shen Qingqing would have almost forgotten about her birthday.

Thinking she’s about to turn twenty-nine, she felt a bit sentimental.

Time really flies!

If Madam Jiang hadn’t reminded her, she would still feel like she’s just twenty-something...

Nearing thirty, Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun were neither remarried nor had children, which seemed odd to many people.

In that moment, she inexplicably felt the impulse.

Why not just remarry?

This impulse flashed by and disappeared quickly.

Shen Qingqing has been really busy lately, but Jiang Zhixun’s re-flight is a great thing, so it’s appropriate to take some time to celebrate with family.

"I’ll follow your arrangements," Shen Qingqing said.

The person on the other end of the phone instantly became delighted, "I’ll go order a birthday cake in advance; I’ll definitely make it beautiful for you!"

Shen Qingqing chuckled, "It’s enough for the family to have a meal together; no need to make it so complicated."

"It’s not complicated, not at all."

Madam Jiang had only one thing in mind, to treat Shen Qingqing well, even better.

Seeing their sincerity, she might nod in agreement to remarry!

Madam Jiang kept reminding herself not to rush for offspring lest it backfires.

Still, in her heart, she secretly hoped Shen Qingqing would have a child before turning thirty.

If it drags on further, who knows how long it will take before her wish of having grandchildren comes true.

Madam Jiang couldn’t urge openly, so she planned to take a roundabout route.

Getting everything done well, so Qingqing has no worries; maybe one day she might suddenly want children!

"What dishes do you want to eat, so Mama can buy them?"

Shen Qingqing wasn’t picky, "You just pick whatever you like."

Madam Jiang listed a long string of dish names to herself and asked Shen Qingqing to add to it.

Shen Qingqing symbolically mentioned two dishes, and only then did Madam Jiang feel satisfied.

After ending the call with Madam Jiang, Shen Qingqing was teased good-naturedly by her colleagues.

"Mr. Jiang has nothing to complain, and your mother-in-law treats you like a daughter of her own; Teacher Shen, you really make us envious and jealous."

All the teachers in the office were already married, and whenever they chatted, they would inevitably talk about their partners, elders, and children.

Shen Qingqing couldn’t join in at first, but now she’s adapted.

"I envy you all for being able to see your families every day, lively and full of warmth; it’s so nice."

Shen Qingqing’s parents unexpectedly passed away, unreliable relatives, and young, she married the man she liked, only to end in divorce.

Suddenly, several colleagues felt sorry for Shen Qingqing again.

It was fortunate that Mr. Jiang admitted his mistakes and the Jiang family was respectable.

If it had been some other family, who knows how Shen Qingqing might have been bullied.

Even after divorce, there would probably still be trouble.

Just like her relatives in Shanghai, thick-skinned enough to forsake everything for money.

Being looked at with sympathetic eyes by colleagues, Shen Qingqing didn’t sense any malice and felt a bit amused and helpless.

"Being free and easy alone is quite nice too; I want to enjoy this kind of life for two more years."

Li Xue teased, "If your Jiang heard this, he’d probably faint from crying."

Shen Qingqing: "Is it that exaggerated?"

Li Xue nodded vigorously, "You might not have noticed, but wherever you are, Mr. Jiang’s gaze never strays away. That fervor obviously shows he wants to marry you back, impatiently so."

Shen Qingqing’s lips curved, and her beautiful eyes shone with genuine laughter.

The tear mole at the corner of her eye sparkled brightly.

With a smile in her voice, "Next time I’ll make him hold back so you guys won’t tease him again."

Li Xue clicked her tongue, "Teacher Shen, you’re putting people in a difficult position."

They say the eyes are the windows to the soul, and when deeply loving someone, one’s gaze cannot lie.

Clearly, Mr. Jiang loves Teacher Shen dearly.

It’s the kind you can’t hide.

Or rather, he simply doesn’t want to hide it!

After a few light-hearted jokes, another colleague asked with concern, "Teacher Shen, have those people from Shanghai bothered you again?"

Those people knew Shen Qingqing’s work unit, so finding her wouldn’t be difficult.

Indeed, enemies are bound to cross paths.

If it weren’t for Shu Xian, even knowing Shen Qingqing was in Beijing, they wouldn’t have access to find her.

Having witnessed Shu Xian’s unreasonable behavior, colleagues felt worried for Shen Qingqing.

Some people are just like that, causing a fuss without cause, which is really annoying!

Mentioning those people made the smile on Shen Qingqing’s face fade a little.

"For now, they haven’t caused trouble."

As for the future, no one can say for sure.

After all, Shu Xian had even knelt in public; whether she’ll have a change of conscience and stop being unreasonable, Shen Qingqing was doubtful.

Someone gave Shen Qingqing advice, "Kindness can be exploited; if she causes trouble again, you should be tougher and directly sue her. She’s already affecting your normal life and work, and you’re in the right. No need to shy away from her."

Li Xue concurred, "If you’re too busy with work to manage it yourself, directly commission a lawyer to handle it for you; we’ll just wait and see who can outlast the other."

"Their goal is money, and surely they don’t want to get into a lawsuit, so just be firm with them, letting them know there are no good outcomes if they mess with you. If they’re not outright foolish, they should back off when they face resistance."

Shen Qingqing thought about it carefully and found this approach feasible.

"If they come to harass me again, I’ll do just that."

She happened to know someone who was a lawyer.

If she had to spend money, she’d rather pay for legal services than give a penny to those ridiculous relatives!

"You don’t have to worry too much; the Jiang Family is all in Beijing and won’t let you be bullied."

Madam Jiang’s visit to Shanghai to support Shen Qingqing was already widely known.

If those people dared come to Beijing and stir trouble, the Jiang Family surely wouldn’t stand idly by.

Shen Qingqing smiled, "I’m almost thirty; I can handle my own troubles."

Li Xue: "Having someone to rely on is a blessing; you don’t have to face everything alone. Occasional reliance on Mr. Jiang and the elders at home might even make them happier!"

Due to past experiences, Shen Qingqing was used to solving her own problems.

She was quite independent.

But she didn’t deny that Li Xue had a point.

Occasionally showing vulnerability could strengthen the bond between them.

Shen Qingqing gave a thumbs-up, "Impressive, you’re almost an expert."

Li Xue felt helpless, "I’ve summed up these experiences; it’s great to slack off sometimes, making things easier for oneself and giving the family a sense of achievement. It’s a win-win!"

Shen Qingqing nodded, "I’ll have to learn a lot from you in the future."

"What if I lead you astray?" Li Xue felt the pressure mounting.

Shen Qingqing chuckled, "No problem, if we’re astray, we’re together; I’ll have company!"

Li Xue: "..."
