Reborn: Instead of Chasing the School Beauty, I Chased Her Mother

Chapter 572: 177 Rao Shi Yun: Stop doing that, Zifeng is watching!
 

Zhou Rongrong felt quite perplexed today. She had come over intent on buying some delicacies for her son, preparing to whip up a late-night snack for him.

Li Zhiyan had mentioned on QQ that he would be returning home late, but what Zhou Rongrong hadn’t anticipated was bumping into Li Zhiyan’s master’s wife here.

Zhou Rongrong was unaware that Yen Zhengjin’s family had fallen apart and that he had become mentally ill.

However, her impression of Jiang Xian was still quite favorable.

After they greeted each other, something occurred to Zhou Rongrong.

Subsequently, she called Li Zhiyan aside.

“Son, come here, Mom wants to talk to you about something.”

Once they were aside, Li Zhiyan also couldn’t help but feel a sense of nervousness.

Standing on the other side, watching the mother and son converse, Jiang Xian was the most nervous of all.

What should she call Zhou Rongrong now?

Perhaps she should call her Mom.

Thinking about it, she felt extremely embarrassed, especially since she was now pregnant with Li Zhiyan’s child.

As she thought more about it, her heartbeat quickened.

“Son, tell me, what’s going on? I must warn you, don’t think about such a woman, she has a family.”

Actually, Zhou Rongrong didn’t really care about that.

Her main concern was the fear that something might happen to her son someday. After all, Jiang Xian was someone else’s wife, and her son liked mature women who were 20 years his senior, and Jiang Xian obviously fit into his target range.

The two of them being here together clearly indicated that something had happened.

She just didn’t know how far things had developed, and thinking about it made Zhou Rongrong worry.

“Mom, Auntie Jiang and I, we’re together now.”

Sure enough, upon hearing Li Zhiyan’s words, Zhou Rongrong felt a bit dizzy and Li Zhiyan quickly supported his mother.

“But, Mom, don’t worry, Auntie Jiang has already divorced.”

In fact, from the moment Yen Zhengjin and Jiang Xian divorced over a dispute about an extra apartment, their marriage had truly ended, even if it meant taking away Auntie Jiang’s right to her pregnancy.

And it had nothing to do with Yen Zhengjin anymore.

“Does it concern you?”@@novelbin@@

“Of course not, it’s Yen Zhengjin who got himself into gambling.”

“At first, he lost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.”

“Later on, he gambled away all the family property, and now Yen Zhengjin has completely become a lunatic.”

“This matter really has nothing to do with me.”

“And now Yen Zhengjin has become a lunatic; he might even be dead somewhere for all we know.”

Li Zhiyan had always been firmly against gambling, knowing well that it was a road of no return.

The choice Yen Zhengjin made had clearly driven him into a dead end, all brought upon himself by his own actions.

“Hmm…”

Hearing her son say this, Zhou Rongrong also felt relieved.

As for Yen Zhengjin, she really despised him, as he was not a good person at all.

“Okay, son, remember to come home early tonight, Mom will make you some late-night snacks.”

Together, the mother and son approached Jiang Xian, who could not help but feel very nervous at the moment.

However, Zhou Rongrong just smiled and greeted her, then left, not wanting to make her son and Jiang Xian feel awkward.

All of this was within Li Zhiyan’s expectations.

After all, his mom could accept the affair between her best friend and her son.

So, clearly, she could accept Auntie Jiang as well.

“Your mom didn’t say anything, did she?”

Jiang Xian patted her ample chest and said.

“Auntie Jiang, rest assured, my mom knows about us.”

A single sentence made Jiang Xian feel as if her world had turned upside down.

How could Zhou Rongrong accept something like this so easily?

Wasn’t that a bit too preposterous?

But then, she thought about how Li Zhiyan came from a single-parent family, and it was normal for a mother to dote on her child excessively; perhaps that was why Zhou Rongrong could accept her son dating a 41-year-old woman.

“Auntie Jiang, let’s continue shopping.”

“Hmm…”

Once she knew Zhou Rongrong didn’t really mind, Jiang Xian felt relieved, as she had always worried that Zhou Rongrong would confront her after discovering their relationship.

But now, it seemed like it really didn’t matter anymore.

Much later, Li Zhiyan walked out of the supermarket shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Xian, carrying two bags of groceries.

They had just passed by not long ago.

Li Zhiyan saw a familiar face, Yen Zhengjin.

Yen Zhengjin was still very recognizable, looking much the same as when Li Zhiyan had seen him from inside the car with Auntie Jiang…

Back then, his appearance hadn’t changed much, only now he seemed even more deranged.

A man who once had a fortune of millions, now gambled it all away on online gambling platforms, ending up with nothing. It was normal for him to go insane from such a drastic downfall.

At that moment, when Yen Zhengjin saw Jiang Xian, his eyes lit up.

There was a trace of clarity in his eyes, but Li Zhiyan could tell that this clarity was driven by lust.

Indeed, men are never honest, unless they’re Yang Wei.

Or hanging on the wall.

“Beautiful lady…”

“Beautiful lady…”

Yen Zhengjin hobbled towards Jiang Xian.

Towards this woman who was once his wife.

Yen Zhengjin couldn’t recognize her anymore.
