When the two of them returned home, Jiang Bo arrived before them. They were not home, and no one had eaten yet. They were waiting for them to come back and eat together. Jiang Bo wore an apron, a pair of gloves, and a chef’s hat on his head.
He was holding a bowl in his hand and his hand was grabbing something in the bowl. It looked like he was marinating it. Seeing Father Jiang’s fully armed equipment, Fang Yuqing was filled with anticipation for tonight’s dinner.
“You’re back?” Jiang Bo said to Liu Qingya, “Since you’re back, let’s eat.”
“Okay.”
Mother Jiang and the nanny made lunch together. The taste was not bad, but it was not very delicious. Fang Yuqing ate some and felt nauseous during the meal, so she ran to the toilet to vomit.
She could not eat anymore, but Mother Jiang scooped another bowl of soup for her. She kept saying that the more she vomited, the more she had to eat. Even if she could not eat, she had to eat more. Even if she would vomit later, she still had to eat something.
Fang Yuqing thought of the little fellow in her stomach who needed to absorb nutrients. She endured the nausea and drank the bowl of soup. She endured it for more than half an hour and could not help but run to the toilet to vomit.
Jiang Wei quickly followed and stood beside her. When she was done vomiting, he handed her a cup of warm water and a towel. “Rinse your mouth.”
“Yeah.”
Fang Yuqing rinsed her mouth with warm water before asking Jiang Wei to hold her hand. Fang Yuqing was a little tired again, so Jiang Wei brought her back to her room to sleep. Fang Yuqing did not sleep for long before she woke up halfway because she felt nauseous.
She vomited in a daze and fell asleep again.
It was almost four o’clock when she woke up.
Fang Yuqing had been vomiting and did not look good. After sleeping for a while, her face looked a little rosier. Jiang Wei was not in his room and should be downstairs. Fang Yuqing went downstairs alone and did not see Jiang Wei in the hall. Instead, she saw Jiang Jie.
During lunch, Jiang Jie was not at home.
Jiang Jie had opened a bar a while ago to earn some pocket money. Occasionally, she would stay in the bar to look after the shop. Fang Yuqing did not see her during lunch today.
“When did you come back, Jiang Jie?” Fang Yuqing sat down beside Jiang Jie.
Jiang Jie said, “I’ve only been back for half an hour.” She stared at Fang Yuqing’s stomach and asked her, “Can I touch it?”
“Of course.”
Fang Yuqing leaned against the sofa and let Jiang Jie touch her stomach. Jiang Jie’s actions were very gentle, afraid that she would alarm the Jiang family’s youngest grandson. Jiang Jie placed her hand on Fang Yuqing’s abdomen and asked Fang Yuqing, “How long before you feel the fetal movement?”
“About two months.”
“Tsk tsk.”
Fang Yuqing suddenly retched and her expression became unbearable.
“Are you going to vomit again?” Fang Yuqing revealed a sympathetic expression.
It was really hard for women to get pregnant.
“I’m going to the toilet!” Fang Yuqing quickly stood up and ran to the toilet.
Jiang Jie chased after her. She stood by the door of the toilet and watched Fang Yuqing vomit with a complicated expression. When Fang Yuqing stood up, Jiang Jie said, “It’s really tough being a woman.”
“Everything is for the child,” Fang Yuqing said to Jiang Jie. “You will have this day too.”
Jiang Jie looked at Fang Yuqing deeply and suddenly said, “I’m quite envious of you now.”
“Why?”
Jiang Jie said, “I had a boyfriend a while ago. You know him, right?”
“Yes.” Fang Yuqing had seen a few photos of them in Jiang Jie’s WeChat Moments. He was quite good-looking and talented. He was from the neighboring province and it was said that his family background was quite good.
They looked very compatible from all angles. “His name is Qin Yao, right?”
Jiang Jie smiled and nodded.
Fang Yuqing wiped her mouth and asked her, “How are you guys doing now? Are you talking casually or are you preparing to get married?”
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie said, “He cheated on me.”
Fang Yuqing’s expression froze.
The smile on her face disappeared, and surprise crept onto her face. She looked up in surprise and glanced at Jiang Jie. She asked, “What happened?”
Jiang Jie sneered. “Qin Yao is with a girl from his company.” Jiang Jie shrugged and said, “Although we’re not far apart, we don’t live in the same city after all. We’re always separated for a longer time compared to when we meet. It’s easy for a third party to enter our relationship. Of course, being separated isn’t the main reason why we broke up.”
“Huh?” Then what was the most important?
A bleak smile appeared on Jiang Jie’s face. She mocked herself and said, “They slept together. They’ve been together for a month and a half. The funny thing is that he slept with me the night before yesterday.”
This was not funny at all. Instead, it was very hateful. Two-timing was really the most disgusting thing.
Jiang Jie added, “Yesterday, we had a very sumptuous lunch. At the dining table, he broke up with me.” She glanced at Fang Yuqing and said, “Do you know why he broke up with me?”
Breaking up meant that he did not love her anymore.
The so-called ‘we’re not suitable’ was just a pleasant excuse.
Fang Yuqing was about to ask why when Jiang Jie said in an unfamiliar and annoying tone, “I have a good impression of you. We’re very compatible in all aspects, be it in the world or in bed. However, I still have to apologize to you. Sorry, let’s break up.”
When Fang Yuqing heard this, she was stunned for a moment before understanding that Jiang Jie was imitating what Qin Yao had said when they broke up. Fang Yuqing asked her, “Are these his words?”
“Yes, exactly.” Jiang Jie recalled what she had experienced yesterday and still found it ridiculous. “I asked him why he broke up with me. Since we’re compatible in all aspects, shouldn’t we be together?”
“He said he cheated on me.”
The mocking smile on Jiang Jie’s lips deepened. “He said that the other party was a virgin.”
Fang Yuqing was stunned.
Virgin…
She could not help but reach out to hold Jiang Jie’s hand.
Jiang Jie was stunned. She looked down at her hand that was held by her sister-in-law and her heart suddenly ached. Jiang Jie could no longer smile. She put away her fake and ugly smile and complained in a sobbing voice, “The other party is a virgin. Ha, which woman is not a virgin? Before I fucking fell in love with that person, I was also a virgin. But what happened in the end?”
Jiang Jie had once dated a boy for three years. At that time, she was just in her third year of high school. She heard that in the third year of their relationship, that man got together with a cellist. When they broke up, the man told Jiang Jie that the woman was very gentle and quiet. He said that Jiang Jie’s personality was too noisy and he liked gentle and quiet people. They were not suitable for each other.
They were not suitable.
If they were not suitable, they should have discovered it long ago. He didn’t have to look for someone else and then say they were unsuitable.
Wasn’t this nonsense!
