After Divorcing, She Became An Absolute Beauty

Panda Novel

It was not that she did not want to talk about it, but her throat was in so much pain that she could not speak even a single word.

Ji Jingchen covered her with a blanket. "Go to sleep! Everything will be fine once you wake up."

Du Jiuyuan thought that he would throw a tantrum at her. She did not expect him to be so calm.

She simply did not think about anything else and slowly fell asleep. Her dreams were filled with the fierce orange flames on the mountain.

When dawn broke, Du Jiuyuan was awakened by a burst of conversation and heard a voice that she was extremely familiar with.

"This girl is stubborn. She has the same temper as her grandfather. Last year, when she came back to visit me, she even told me that you treated her very well and went home every day to have dinner with her. Were you two fighting?" The person who spoke was Du Ling, Du Jiuyuan's aunt.

This was also Du Jiuyuan's only relative in this world.

"No. The two of us went climbing a mountain and encountered a mountain fire. We narrowly escaped death," Ji Jingchen paused and said slowly.

"Auntie..." Du Jiuyuan's voice was hoarse, and every word she uttered hurt terribly.

"Did I wake you up? Jingchen told me that you two wanted to hold a rearranged wedding and invited me here." Du Ling looked at Du Jiuyuan worriedly.

She knew that this child always reported the good news to her but had never once mentioned any grievances she had suffered.

"Ji Jingchen, what evil intentions do you have in mind? Things that happened between us stay between us and why did you have to get my family members involved?" Du Jiuyuan's good impression of him instantly disappeared.

"Yuanyuan, if the both of you have any misunderstandings, talk it over. Don't be like this. Jing Chen is very busy at work, so you have to be more understanding." Du Ling did not know what Ji Jingchen had done, nor did she know about the mishaps Du Jiuyuan had suffered.

Du Jiuyuan realized that she had lost her composure. She rubbed her sore throat and forced a smile. "Auntie, I want to get a divorce."

This matter could not be hidden from her aunt. Ji Jingchen had invited her aunt over to make Du Jiuyuan compromise, so it was better to tell her the truth.

"Take care of your body first. Auntie will take good care of you in the next two days." Du Ling was not surprised. She could see that Du Jiuyuan was not happy.

Du Jiuyuan nodded. She glanced coldly at Ji Jingchen. This marriage was definitely going to end.

The door of the ward was gently pushed open. Mrs. Ji could not stand Tang Yingxue's coaxing and cajole so she finally agreed to bring her to the hospital.

"Brother Jingchen." The moment Tang Yingxue entered, she pounced on Ji Jingchen in a delicate manner.

Ji Jingchen dodged. Tang Yingxue missed and fell to the ground.

"Brother Jingchen, you don't love me anymore..." When Tang Yingxue found out that Ji Jingchen had brought Du Jiuyuan's aunt over, she deliberately put on an act to confuse Du Ling.

Du Ling had been through this before. She believed that Ji Jingchen would not abandon Du Jiuyuan, but seeing that Mrs. Ji did not stop Tang Yingxue's actions, she had a heavy feeling in her heart.

"This must be my in-law! I'm Yuanyuan's aunt. You can just address me as Younger Sister," Du Ling went forward to hold Mrs. Ji's hand and said warmly.

Mrs. Ji looked at Du Ling with a look of disdain that could not be hidden.

"Sorry, I can't accept you addressing me as an elder sister."

As Mrs. Ji spoke, she sized up Du Ling. Du Ling's skin was extremely rough, and no matter how she looked at it, she did not seem to be younger than her.

"Elder sister, I do not have any bad intentions. Please don't look at how old I appear to be, I'm actually younger than you." Du Ling said with a smile, making it impossible for people to get angry and this was probably the reason why one could never hit a person who was always smiling.

The word "elder " had completely caused Mrs. Ji's face to turn sour. This was the word that women hated the most, not to mention a woman like Mrs. Ji who spent every day in a beauty salon. She could not bear to hear this word.

It just so happened that Du Ling repeatedly called her "Elder Sister". She did not realize Mrs. Ji's face had turned dark.

Only then did Tang Yingxue realize that she had been completely ignored.

She climbed up on her own dejectedly, feeling a little scared by Ji Jingchen's glare.

Du Jiuyuan did not realize that her aunt actually had this ability— to infuriate others. This was a similar attribute to Ji Jingchen, as they were both capable of infuriating others with ease.

"Auntie, please help me get some water!" Du Jiuyuan did not want to see them fight too much, so she spoke up.

"Yuanyuan needs to recuperate quietly. Madam Ji, you should take your adopted daughter back home!" Ji Jingchen's words were both an eviction order and a clear indication of Tang Yingxue's identity.

She was merely Madam Ji's adopted daughter.

"That's not right. She shouldn't be called Madam Ji. That title belongs to our Yuanyuan. She should be called Old Madam Ji..." Du Ling interjected at this moment.

The word 'old' once again stung Madam Ji's nerves.

"Take care, Old Madam Ji. I won't see you out," Ji Jingchen said.

Tang Yingxue did not dare to be smug anymore. She went forward and held Madam Ji's arm. The two of them walked over arrogantly and left in frustration.

"Yuanyuan, the wedding will be postponed for another week. Take care of yourself. I still have urgent tasks to attend to at the company. Go and get some rest, Jiang Cheng will come over in a while.. Let him take care of everything," Ji Jingchen said as left without looking back.
