  Could Chen Jun really have gone so long without having a woman? Of course not, unless something was wrong with his body.

  Chen Jun was pretentious too. Although he didn’t like Qiao Zijin, he would still occasionally be intimate with Qiao Zijin over the years. There was once Chen Jun had gotten drunk and had let slip that he was willing to touch her because she was his wife and was ‘cleaner’ than all those women outside.

  In other words, Chen Jun had the habit of having a clean woman at home for him to ‘use’. Would a man like this be able to hold off marriage? Even without Chen Jun’s reply, Qiao Zijin already knew the answer.

  Qiao Zijin had seen through Chen Jun. She knew that Chen Jun had harbored such deep feelings for Qiao Nan for so many years exactly because of Qiao Nan’s respect and love for herself. Even when Qiao Nan and Chen Jun had been dating, she would always keep her distance from Chen Jun and refuse to give herself to him until they were married.

  After they broke up and up until Qiao Nan had gotten married to Zhai Sheng, she had remained a virgin. Chen Jun was a wild playboy but he liked women like Qiao Nan.

  \r \r \r

  It was exactly because of that that Qiao Zijin couldn’t understand why the remarried Chen Jun had the guts to call her, saying that they were still a family and that they should have a meal together. Qiao Zijin chuckled. She had never heard a better joke than this. “If you want to treat someone to a meal, you’d better treat your current wife’s family. We’re already divorced. My family has nothing to do with you. Do you understand? Zhai Sheng? Zhai Sheng is my brother-in-law.” Of course, he would soon become her husband.

  While Zhai Sheng was still her brother-in-law, she would never let Zhai Sheng have anything to do with Chen Jun. Once she married Zhai Sheng, she would already be kind if she asked Zhai Sheng not to deal with the Chen family for all they had done in the past. Chen Jun could dream on about Zhai Sheng helping him.

  Having been married for over ten years, Qiao Zijin knew what Chen Jun was thinking of. Chen Jun could never even dream about having a relationship with Zhai Sheng or the Zhai family in the past. Now that Qiao Nan had married Zhai Sheng, it had become possible. But that was only if he had not divorced her.

  She thought about how she had sobbed and begged Chen Jun not to divorce her and to give her another chance. At that time, Chen Jun had been nasty and evil, looking at her as though she was a pest. Now, he was even asking for a favor with such an arrogant tone. He could dream on!

  “…” Chen Jun was not at all surprised that Qiao Zijin would be so proud. He understood Qiao Zijin’s temper and personality well. “It’s been almost two years but you’ve never come to visit Feng Feng. Don’t you miss your son? I’ll take this opportunity to bring Feng Feng over.”

  Talking about it, Chen Jun felt that Qiao Zijin was rather heartless. It was not that strange for her to treat her biological younger sister, Qiao Nan, in that way. But ever since the divorce, Qiao Zijin had never been back to the Chen family’s house to visit her own son. ‘Coincidentally’, Chen Feng had never made any mention of his mom, Qiao Zijin, either.

  “Feng Feng…” She didn’t want to see Chen Jun, but the mention of her son made her hesitate. “You should know how we got together. You might not know this, but before Qiao Nan got married to Zhai Sheng, I had an idea. I knew that you hadn’t given up your feelings for Qiao Nan, so I was thinking that it would be nice for Qiao Nan to be Feng Feng’s stepmother. That way, I would be able to fulfill your wishes so that you would treat Feng Feng better. Moreover, since Feng Feng has already grown up, there would also be no need for Qiao Nan to give birth to any more children at her age. Although I never got the chance to bring this up to Qiao Nan, do you think she would have agreed to it?”

  When she had first gotten married to Chen Jun, Qiao Nan had treated her pretty well, but that was not the case toward Chen Jun. Qiao Nan treated Chen Jun as a brother-in-law. Not only did she avoid getting close to Chen Jun, but she even actively avoided him. She had never once seen Chen Jun and Qiao Nan together without anyone else around.

  Why was that the case?

  After some time, Qiao Zijin naturally realized that Chen Jun had feelings for Qiao Nan, but Qiao Nan refused to accept it and avoided Chen Jun at all cost. In short, Chen Jun had never given up his feelings for Qiao Nan but Qiao Nan felt nothing toward him anymore. Qiao Nan had never thought of seducing Chen Jun to get revenge against her.

  Since Qiao Nan did not even want to get revenge on her by seducing Chen Jun, it was clear that Qiao Nan had no feelings for Chen Jun at all. In fact, Qiao Nan might probably still hate Chen Jun for having done that to her.

  Qiao Nan’s attitude toward Chen Jun had already been that way before the divorce. Now that she was Chen Jun’s ex-wife and Qiao Nan didn’t even want to get in contact with her own sister, who was Chen Jun as an ex-brother-in-law? He wanted to have a meal with Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng? Only Chen Jun could say something as shameless as that.

  “…” Chen Jun hadn’t even thought about it in that way. Before the divorce, the couple had hardly shared the same thoughts. But after their divorce, they seemed to be on the same wavelength regarding this matter.

  Knowing that Qiao Nan had not only gotten married before the age of forty after he had given up on her but had even married someone a thousand times better than him, Chen Jun was bitter.

  If Qiao Nan had not gotten married or had found someone worse off than him after that rejection, Chen Jun would probably not be so sour. After leaving him, shouldn’t Qiao Zijin and Qiao Nan’s lives be getting worse?

  Qiao Zijin didn’t seem to be living very well, but Qiao Nan… It went without saying that marrying Zhai Sheng and becoming the chief’s wife made Qiao Nan a winner in life. There was nothing better than that.

  “We’re all relatives. Besides, she’s always doted on Feng Feng. I think she wouldn’t refuse to meet Feng Feng, right?” At this time, Chen Jun was thankful that Chen Feng had a cordial relationship with Qiao Nan, giving him an excuse to find the Qiao family. If not for Chen Feng, it would be difficult for him to get in contact with Qiao Zijin or Qiao Nan.

  Qiao Zijin snorted. “Do you really not know why I always threw Feng Feng over to Qiao Nan before our divorce? Or are you pretending to be stupid?”
