Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Zhuang Wanling was a little hesitant.

The couple unknowingly walked to the gate of the neighbourhood. Xu Jinfei's eyes were sharp enough to see Zhuang Tianya walking out of the supermarket.

"Tianya, what a coincidence! Why are you shopping here?" Xu Jinfei was overjoyed to see Zhuang Tianya at this time. He greeted her and walked over.

"Uncle, auntie," Zhuang Tianya smiled when she saw the two of them. "It's rare for the two of you to come out together. Auntie, is your stomach better now?"

Zhuang Wanling felt warm to hear that. She didn't expect that she would still remember her illness after so many years. In addition, the two of them had the same surname, Zhuang. For sure she would have a good impression of Zhuang Tianya. "Aiya, it's an old issue. Can't be cured."

"I heard from a foreign friend that there is a medicine in America that is good for stomach illnesses. Next time, I'll get her to bring you a box," Zhuang Tianya said worriedly. "Please try to see if it works."

"It's so sweet of you... You're too kind." Zhuang Wanling sighed in her heart. Too bad that An Lan had a better plan...

"Not a problem at all. After all..." Zhuang Tianya smiled bitterly, didn't finish her sentence.

Xu Jinfei was extremely astute, he immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Tianya, tell me the truth, do you still have feelings towards Baohan?"

Zhuang Tianya smiled sadly, "We had no choice when we split up back then, it was impossible for me to turn a blind eye on my father. Now that I'm alone, but he has a girlfriend, it's all fated."

Xu Jinfei immediately perked up, "It's Baohan's fault. If he had helped you back then, you wouldn't have had to break up with him at all. He's just too inflexible. You're a good girl, I've truly treated you as my daughter-in-law since a long time ago. I don't like that An Lan at all. Don't worry, I will definitely help you."

Zhuang Tianya's face lit up, but she then quickly shook her head. "I appreciate your good intentions, but I don't want to put Baohan in a difficult position. Now that I can see him occasionally and know that he's fine, I'm satisfied."

"You're the one who truly loves him." Xu Jinfei couldn't help nodding. He was now certain that Zhuang Tianya loved Xu Baohan deeply. As long as he chased An Lan away, Zhuang Tianya would have a chance. Men were nostalgic, he believed that Xu Baohan wouldn't be completely heartless towards Zhuang Tianya.

...

On Saturday, Deng Zhicheng and his lawyer came to the law firm to meet An Lan and Li Shuang.

Li Shuang had specially dressed herself up to discuss the divorce. For this meeting, she had dragged An Lan to get her hair done last night and bought a few expensive clothes.

When Deng Zhicheng saw her, he was stunned. Ever since she had given birth, Li Shuang had not dressed like this for a long time. Every time she came home, her hair was messy and her face was plain. Her clothes were either T-shirts or down jackets.

To be honest, he regretted having an affair.

While his thoughts were running wild, he did not pay much attention to what An Lan said when she came in. Lawyer Fang, who had come with him, reminded him and pulled him out from his thoughts, "Mr Deng, please take a look at this document."

Deng Zhicheng picked it up in a daze and took a look. Then, his whole body shivered.

An Lan looked at him and smiled, "The law is sometimes quite cruel. Even if a man cheats and makes a mistake, it won't affect the allocation of the assets. You had been secretly selling your properties all this while. You even bought a house for your mistress, using your business partner to help you with the ownership transfer. You thought that no one would find out as long as no bank transfer record was related to your personal accounts. But you have missed out on something. The one and only loophole, which was also the biggest loophole, your business partner."

Deng Zhicheng was so angry that the veins on the back of his hand bulged, and his eyes widened in disbelief.. "He betrayed me."
