“It’s a long story. In short, she didn’t treat Jiaojiao well, so I divorced her,” Chi Mingwei said slowly.
When he had finally decided to divorce Zhu Limin, it wasn’t because he knew that she had cheated on him. It was because he realized that Zhu Limin would never treat Jiaojiao as her biological daughter. She would even abuse his precious daughter. That was why he decided to divorce that detestable woman.
Ruan Yazhen was silent for a moment. Her gaze softened as she looked at him. “At least you can still act like a father.”
Chi Mingwei smiled honestly. “Jiaojiao is Xiaoyi’s daughter. Since Xiaoyi is no longer around, I’ll definitely have to take good care of Jiaojiao.”
If it weren’t for Jiaojiao, he would have already gone with the woman he loved.
“It’s good that you think that way,” Ruan Yazhen said slowly.
Then, the two of them chatted about Chi Jiao some more before returning to the living room.
At this moment, someone came back from outside.
“Mom, give me a glass of water. I’m dying of thirst!” Before the girl entered the house, her voice was heard first.
Having just entered the living room from the back door, Ruan Yazhen heard the familiar voice and hurried to the entrance.
Chi Jiao and Chi Mingwei also looked at the entrance.
A short-haired girl walked into the living room and casually handed her bag to Ruan Yazhen. “I’m so tired. I’ve been on the train for an entire day and night. My bones are about to fall apart…”
The short-haired girl’s eyes landed on Chi Mingwei and Chi Jiao just as she finished speaking.
“Mom, we have guests?” Not recognizing them, she looked at Ruan Yazhen in confusion.
“They’re not outsiders. This is your uncle, and that is your cousin, Chi Jiao,” Ruan Yazhen said to her daughter with a smile.
Dongfang Linlin’s eyes flashed with confusion, but then she remembered that she still had an aunt who had passed away many years ago.
“Oh~ So this is the cousin who grew up in the mountains!” Dongfang Linlin looked enlightened.
Ruan Yazhen smiled and nodded before looking at Chi Jiao. “Jiaojiao, this is your second cousin, Dongfang Linlin.”
Chi Jiao had an impeccable smile on her face as she looked at Dongfang Linlin and called her “Second Cousin” sweetly.
“Linlin, go talk to your cousin. I will get you a cup of water,” Ruan Yazhen said to her.
Dongfang Linlin nodded and walked to the sofa to sit down. Her eyes were filled with interest as she sized up Chi Jiao.
Chi Jiao was wearing a red sweater with flower petals today. It looked a little similar to village clothes, but she looked very cute in it.
She was also wearing a pair of jeans and a pair of coffee-colored fur boots, accentuating her long and straight legs.
Coupled with her cute hair bun, she was super adorable.
Dongfang Linlin instantly had a good impression of her. She couldn’t help but reach out and pinch Chi Jiao’s face. “Your face is so soft.”
Chi Jiao looked at her and couldn’t help but smile. “Second Cousin’s skin is very good, too.”
Dongfang Linlin sighed. “I’m old. I can’t compare to a cute little girl like you.”
Chi Jiao was amused by her attempt at acting old. Her smile became even brighter. “Second Cousin looks to be eighteen or nineteen at most. Not old at all.”
As she listened to Chi Jiao’s soft voice, Dongfang Linlin felt like she had been hit in a soft spot again. She smiled and said, “I’m nineteen this year.. I should be two years older than you.”
