Chapter 401: Chapter 201: (Must-Read!) Sun Miao Confirms Pregnancy, A New Shura Field Begins!

Zhou Shumei looked at Gao Jun, feeling somewhat puzzled.

But at the moment, all her concerns were focused on Xiao Huiyu.

After all, Xiao Huiyu had sustained such severe injuries.

They were even so serious that the doctors had considered calling the police.

When it was time to pay for Xiao Huiyu’s medical expenses, Gao Jun had intended to go to the counter, but Zhou Shumei said it would be better for her to handle the payment since Xiao Huiyu was her neighbor.

That way, when Wang Daguang arrived, she would have a reason to blame him.

Gao Jun agreed.

After Zhou Shumei left, Liang Yaqi curiously asked Gao Jun, "How do you know her?"

Liang Yaqi had not told Gao Jun that Zhou Shumei was her former mother-in-law.

So she wanted to hear the most genuine thoughts.

Gao Jun calmly said, "The last time I went to refuel, she happened to forget her phone, then stood there looking quite embarrassed, so I helped her out."

"Later the two of us exchanged contact information, and when she saw in my Moments that I was looking to recruit an Operations Director, she took the initiative to recommend Xiao Huiyu to me."

His story was flawless.

Liang Yaqi also felt there was nothing wrong with it.

Seeing Gao Jun hadn’t lied and considering their relationship seemed normal, Liang Yaqi then said, "Do you know that I know her?"

Gao Jun feigned surprise, "You know her? I really didn’t know."

"She is Lin Chen’s mother," Liang Yaqi replied.

Gao Jun pretended to be shocked, "What? She’s Lin Chen’s mother?! Really? Then why was there no reaction from you both when you met yesterday?"

Liang Yaqi calmly explained, "That’s because neither of us wanted to expose our relationship at the time, considering we needed to resolve Xiao Huiyu’s issue."

"Both of you really can keep your composure. Even I was kept in the dark," Gao Jun explained.

Seeing that Gao Jun seemed truly unaware, Liang Yaqi said, "Now that you know, it’s best to keep your distance from her, I’m afraid of trouble brewing."

"Alright, I understand," Gao Jun nodded in response.

Simultaneously,

Zhou Shumei had completed the payment and returned.

She looked at Liang Yaqi, also feeling a bit awkward.

Taking the opportunity while Gao Jun was in the restroom, Zhou Shumei took the initiative to apologize, "Yaqi, long time no see."

"Yes, Shumei," said Liang Yaqi, who would naturally no longer call her mother-in-law, so she opted to call her Shumei since she was older than her.

Zhou Shumei, noticing that Liang Yaqi did not hold significant hostility towards her, also actively apologized, "I’m very sorry about you and Little Chen. I never thought he’d be that kind of person. Now that you’re divorced, I hope you’re doing better."

"Well, I’ve indeed been doing better since the divorce," Liang Yaqi said with a smile.

Naturally, this statement was meant to underline to Zhou Shumei that her life had been happier since getting away from her scumbag son.

Zhou Shumei said no more and sat beside Xiao Huiyu’s bed.

Before long, Gao Jun returned.

Seeing this, Liang Yaqi suggested, "Since Shumei is here to look after Huiyu, how about we leave first?"

After hearing this, Gao Jun nodded, "Okay."

Then he looked at Zhou Shumei, "We’re leaving then, Shumei."

Zhou Shumei, although feeling a bit let down inside, still replied with a smile on her face, "Okay."

After leaving, Zhou Shumei sent a message to Gao Jun: [You actually called me ’sister’ just now.]

Gao Jun replied: [There were people around, weren’t there? It wouldn’t be appropriate to call you Meimei in front of so many people, haha.]

Zhou Shumei: [I feel like I’ve aged another year.]

Gao Jun: [Don’t talk nonsense, you’re forever eighteen.]

Zhou Shumei: [By the way, why were they calling you President Gao? Is your last name Gao or Chen?]

Gao Jun thought it over, originally planning to reveal the truth to Zhou Shumei at this time, which might have completely devastated her,

But it seemed the moment was not yet ripe.

In the end, Gao Jun responded: [My nickname is Gao, so they also call me President Gao.]

Zhou Shumei: [Eh? Why didn’t you tell me that?]

Gao Jun: [I figured it was just a nickname, so I didn’t mention it.]

Zhou Shumei: [No, you can’t hide things from me, I gave myself to you without reservation!]

Gao Jun: [Alright, my mistake.]

Zhou Shumei, seeing Gao Jun apologize, naturally forgave him as any woman would.

Zhou Shumei: [I wanted to understand your past and tried to become part of it, so I hope you can understand me.]

Gao Jun: [I know, I understand everything.]

Zhou Shumei felt a pang of guilt hearing Gao Jun say this,

Because she had kept her acquaintance with Liang Yaqi from him.

In fact, she and Liang Yaqi had known each other for some time.

With this in mind, Zhou Shumei decided to come clean.

They had agreed not to deceive each other from the beginning.

So, after some thought, Zhou Shumei finally told Gao Jun, [Actually, I’ve known Manager Liang for some time.]

When Gao Jun saw this, he hadn’t expected Zhou Shumei to bring up the subject so proactively.

It seemed she wanted to tell him about her relationship with Liang Yaqi.

Therefore, Gao Jun asked, [When did you two meet?]

Zhou Shumei: [She was my former daughter-in-law, did she tell you about her previous divorce?]

Gao Jun: [She did.]

Zhou Shumei: [My son wronged her, he had an affair, and she ultimately chose to divorce.]

Gao Jun: [I see.]

Zhou Shumei: [So actually, when I saw her yesterday, I was quite surprised. I didn’t expect she was working as a manager at your company.]

Gao Jun: [I think she’s quite capable at work, and since she’s dedicated to her job now, I feel she’s worth nurturing.]
