45 Incurable

Hou Junlai’s father’s expression turned even uglier and he said, “You… are really hopeless!”

Hou Junlai’s mother didn’t mind and she thought about what to do to get Jian Xing’er to remarry Hou Junlai.

Hou Xiaoyu said, “Mom, I think it’s very simple to get my sister-in-law and my brother back together. We just have to think of a way to let the two of them meet more often!”

“Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day of family reunion. Ask sister-in-law to come over and celebrate with us…”

When Junlai’s mother heard this, she said happily, “Xiaoyu, this is a good idea!”

Hou Junlai’s mother paused for a moment before continuing, “If Jian Xing’er agrees, it means that Jian Xing’er wants to return to the Hou family. If we apologize again, Jian Xing’er will probably return to the Hou family.”

Hou Xiaoyu immediately said, “Mom, I’ll invite Sister-in-law over tomorrow.”

Hou Xiaoyu also wanted to curry favor with Jian Xing’er. Hou Xiaoyu’s small company was already struggling to make ends meet. If they had a good relationship with Jian Xing’er, it would be easy for Hou Xiaoyu’s company to earn money with Jian Xing’er’s help.

Hou Xiaoyu had planned everything. Now, she was just short of asking Jian Xing’er for help.

At this moment, Hou Junlai returned home.

Junlai’s mother immediately poured a glass of water and handed it to him as she said, “Junlai, where did you go? Why didn’t you come home at night? Jian Xing’er is quite outstanding now. We’ve already discussed it. We agree to let you and Jian Xing’er remarry. I plan to invite Jian Xing’er to our house tomorrow for the holidays.”

Hou Xiaoyu said, “Brother, I know you care about your reputation, so Mom and I can handle this matter. You don’t have to do anything.”

Hou Junlai said, “You guys can do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me!”

With that, Hou Junlai returned to his room.

After Hou Xiaoyu saw Hou Junlai go upstairs, she said, “Mom, my brother seems very unhappy. What should we do?”

Hou Junlai’s mother said, “It’s fine. Don’t worry about him. We’ll carry out our original plan! Whether we succeed this time is up to you. No matter what you do, you have to bring Jian Xing’er home to celebrate this festival!”

Hou Xiaoyu nodded.

…

After Jian Xing’er returned to the villa, she sat on the sofa.

Shangguan Ding was drinking red wine. When he saw Jian Xing’er return, Shangguan Ding said, “Your ex-mother-in-law has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Seeing that you drank too much, she brought you back and even went around showing off that you’re the Hou family’s daughter-in-law. She even showed off in front of the neighborhood’s guards.”

Jian Xing’er naturally knew what Hou Junlai’s mother was like.

Jian Xing’er wasn’t surprised that Hou Junlai’s mother would do such a thing.

Jian Xing’er said, “How did you know? Did you follow me?”

Seeing that Jian Xing’er was very unhappy, Shangguan Ding immediately changed the topic and said, “You… don’t really plan to remarry Hou Junlai, right?”

Jian Xing’er said calmly, “Why are you so concerned about my matters?”

Shangguan Ding smiled mischievously and said, “Because… I like you!”

Jian Xing’er was stunned when she heard this answer.

Jian Xing’er felt that Shangguan Ding was just joking, so she didn’t take him seriously at all and returned to her room.

Jian Xing’er had drunk too much at the class reunion, so she needed to rest some more.

Shangguan Ding looked at Jian Xing’er’s departing figure with a disappointed expression.

Shangguan Ding mustered up his courage to confess, but Jian Xing’er actually ignored him.

In the afternoon, Jian Xing’er got up and left to find someone.

It was none other than the university counselor.

When Jian Xing’er’s father was alive, the counselor and her father had a very good relationship.

Jian Xing’er thought that she might be able to find some clues from the counselor.

The counselor retired last year and ran a modest factory now.

Jian Xing’er had been to this factory before, but she had been scolded there by the counselor once. After that, she had never been there again.

This time, she was looking for the counselor not only to investigate her parents’ deaths, but also to help the counselor.

It could also be considered repayment for the guidance the counselor gave her during her years in university.

Jian Xing’er had always been an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth type of person.

Although the counselor had been scolding Jian Xing’er in recent years, Jian Xing’er was still very grateful for the counselor’s nurturing.

Jian Xing’er hailed a taxi and prepared to buy something before visiting the counselor.

Just as she was about to get into the car, her phone suddenly rang.

Jian Xing’er picked up the call. It was from Li Kun.

Li Kun told Jian Xing’er that he had already finished discussing with Tianmei Corporation. As long as Jian Xing’er agreed, he could buy it now. In addition, he would buy ten other companies and merge them with Tianmei Corporation.
