Rebirth Must Be Happy

"what?"

Chen Xingruo looked bewildered, as if she had just woken up and her mind was still foggy, but inwardly she was already shocked: 'How did Sister Shan know?'

She knew that Xu Jinhuan and Xie Wanqing were having an affair, and she knew that Xu Jinhuan hadn't lied to her sister, but it wasn't time for their father and Sister Shan to find out yet.

'Could it be that my sister secretly told Sister Shan? But that doesn't make sense, Sister Shan said that my sister was deceived by a scumbag...'

Chen Xingruo was already sleepy, and after taking the medicine, her head was still foggy. She couldn't understand for a moment, so she could only pretend to be stupid and ask, "How did you get tricked, sister?"

"You do not know?"

Yu Peishan continued to stare at Chen Xingruo, sneered, and then couldn't help but stick out a finger and poke her forehead. "Are you out of your mind? Still secretly plotting how to lie to me?"

"Who lied to you?"

Chen Xingruo reached out from under the covers and slapped Yu Peishan's leg, determined not to back down. "Don't think I don't know you're just trying to find fault with me, trying to make me call you auntie or mom... You vicious woman!"

"Trying to change the subject, huh?"

Yu Peishan wasn't fooled at all. "I know you too well... Tell me the truth, you already knew about this, didn't you?"

How do I know you're not bluffing?

Chen Xingruo remained wary and turned her head to the side, facing the back of Yu Peishan, saying, "I won't say anything."

"I came to find you because you were bluffing."

Yu Peishan sighed, "But your reaction has already told me the answer, hasn't it?"

"..."

Chen Xingruo was stunned.

"Speak up, and you'll be treated leniently if you confess."

Yu Peishan patted Chen Xingruo through the blanket, "If you don't tell me, I'll find out sooner or later. Unless your sister plans to keep it from us forever, if I find out sooner, I might be able to give her some advice."

Chen Xingruo knew that her mind wasn't working too well right now, so she learned from her mistake and just stared at Yu Peishan cautiously without saying a word.

"What, it's only been a few years since things calmed down, and you've already forgotten about the time we fought off that mistress together?"

Yu Peishan laughed, "Putting everything else aside, at least you should believe in my skills in this area, right?"

"Um……"

Chen Xingruo thought about it for a moment, and finally felt that Yu Peishan's words made sense. So after hesitating for a few seconds, she said, "Okay, but you have to promise me that you will never let my sister know that you know."

"it is good."

Yu Peishan agreed without hesitation, then smiled and said, "But I can only guarantee that I am sincere when I agree to you now."

"If you dare to lie to me, see how I deal with you!"

Chen Xingruo rolled her eyes. "You couldn't beat me to begin with, and now that my sister is helping you, you're even less likely to win... Behave yourself, or I'll make you regret it."

"Little brat."

Yu Peishan rolled her eyes, then kicked off her slippers, climbed onto the bed, and said, "I'll sit with you."

"Trying to get close to me again."

Chen Xingruo snorted, but clearly wasn't offended. She moved aside, letting Yu Peishan crawl into the blankets.

……

"Aunt Shan is a really nice person."

On the way back, Xie Wanqing chatted happily with Xu Jinhuan, "And she seems to treat Xingzhu very well, the kind of person who really cares about her. I used to think she was just a bit scheming."

Did you think that way before?

Xu Jinhuan laughed in surprise, "I never realized you thought that way before... women's hearts are truly unfathomable."

Xie Wanqing asked, "What do you think?"

"All of them."

Xu Jinhuan thought for a moment before answering, "She is very smart, but she is also quite kind. Most importantly, she doesn't have too many ulterior motives. She is content with what she has and doesn't take her blessings for granted."

"That's quite difficult."

Xie Wanqing sighed, then turned to look at Xu Jinhuan, "You're very observant."

Don't overthink it.

Yu Peishan is only about ten years older than Xu Jinhuan and the others. After reaching a certain age, the age gap isn't actually that big. If this were in some novel, it would definitely be part of the plot. Xu Jinhuan quickly clarified, "That's Xingzhu's evaluation. I don't have that kind of observational ability, and I don't know that much about it either." "I didn't say anything."

Xie Wanqing picked up her phone and scrolled through her WeChat Moments. "I posted something on WeChat Moments while I was eating. Let's see if anyone liked it... Remember to like it later."

Xu Jinhuan said, "When did you send this? How come I didn't know?"

"When I go to the toilet."

"Brilliant!"

Xie Wanqing replied to a message on her phone and then chatted with him casually: "Do you remember my previous roommate, Zhang Ling?"

"I remember, he was the one who played games a lot and was very supportive."

"She started dating before the Spring Festival, but it only lasted a few days, and they broke up yesterday."

"So fast?"

"Uh-huh!"

Xie Wanqing nodded, then asked mysteriously, "Guess what the reason is?"

"What?"

"Guess."

"Not men?"

"No, that's not true at all. They haven't even gotten to that point yet."

"Okay, then it must have been your roommate who broke up with you."

"What?"

"Because guys usually don't break up at this stage, it would be like giving up halfway."

"Pooh!"

"Why did you break up?"

Before Xie Wanqing could speak, her phone rang. She glanced at it and said, "Because... Aunt Shan added me on WeChat. Should I accept?"

Xu Jinhuan said, "Of course I'll refuse."

"what?"

Xie Wanqing looked at him blankly, "Isn't this a bad idea?"

Xu Jinhuan rolled her eyes: "Then why are you asking me?"

"Kill you!"

Xie Wanqing accepted Yu Peishan's friend request and said, "You men are all the same, not one of you is any good... You're even worse."

"I won't allow you to insult yourself like that."

Xu Jinhuan retorted confidently, "Aren't you implying that my wife has poor taste? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"You mean Xingruo, right?"

Xie Wanqing glanced at him, suddenly feeling that something was off. She blinked, unable to recall what it was, but still felt something was amiss, so she asked Xu Jinhuan, "Is something wrong?"

"nonsense!"

The road was relatively clear, not too congested. Xu Jinhuan responded while concentrating on driving, "Is Chen Xingruo my wife? I don't even dare to answer that, okay?"

“Oh oh oh,”

Xie Wanqing then realized, "Slip of the tongue, I misspoke, I'm sorry... You meant Xingzhu, right?"

"What's there to be embarrassed about? It's not like I'm the one who's at a disadvantage."

Xu Jinhuan suspected that Sister Xie was deliberately testing her, so she smiled frankly and said, "Chen Xingruo isn't here, otherwise you would have apologized to her... You didn't tell me why your classmate broke up."

"Oh, she told her boyfriend that she couldn't stand the long-distance relationship."

"Are they in a long-distance relationship? That must be quite difficult."

"They are in the same school but different departments."

"Uh..." (End of Chapter)
