Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Hou Junlai pretended not to care and said, “I have nothing to do with her anymore. What’s there to be jealous about?”

Although he said that, Hou Junlai still felt a little sad.

Hou Xiaoyu said happily, “That’s great! Brother, you’ve thought it through!”

Hou Junlai stopped talking. He didn’t want to show his discomfort.

He didn’t want anyone to find out he was jealous!

He didn’t want Jian Xing’er to notice his jealousy the most!

When Jian Xing’er saw Hou Junlai, she glanced at him before retracting her gaze.

Shangguan Ding asked curiously, “Is that man related to you?”

Jian Xing’er took a deep breath and said, “We just divorced. He’s my ex-husband!”

This was the first time Jian Xing’er had said the word ex-husband.

A smile appeared on Shangguan Ding’s face as he slowly approached Jian Xing’er and hugged her shoulders.

Jian Xing’er frowned as she asked, “What do you want to do?”

Shangguan Ding smiled as he said, “Of course I’m helping you anger your ex-husband!”

Jian Xing’er immediately reached out to push Shangguan Ding away.

Shangguan Ding looked into Jian Xing’er’s eyes as he said, “You won’t push me away.”

Jian Xing’er immediately stopped what she was doing and eventually let Shangguan Ding hug her.

Jian Xing’er felt bitter inside.

However, Jian Xing’er didn’t know why she agreed.

Perhaps she really wanted to anger Hou Junlai.

From the looks of it, Jian Xing’er still couldn’t let go of Hou Junlai. Otherwise, why would she do such a childish thing?

Liu Xin’er added, “I didn’t expect Jian Xing’er to be such a slut. She seduced a rich guy in just a few days. Fortunately, Hou Junlai dumped her. It’s troublesome to keep such a woman!”

Hou Xiaoyu added, “Brother, Sister Xin’er is right. If you want a wife, you have to find someone like Sister Xin’er.”

“Sister Xin’er is a good woman. Brother, you’re really lucky to be able to marry her!”

Hou Junlai couldn’t hear what the others were saying at all. His mind was in a mess.

Liu Xin’er didn’t have the guts to attack Jian Xing’er at the Zhang family’s charity banquet, but she wouldn’t miss this opportunity to humiliate Jian Xing’er.

Liu Xin’er tidied her evening gown and walked towards Jian Xing’er.

When she walked closer, Liu Xin’er had a smile on her face as she questioned, “Jian, you’re a piece of trash who relied on seducing men to survive. How are you qualified to attend the charity banquet organized by the Zhang family?”

Jian Xing’er immediately retorted, “If I’m trash, what are you? You’re worse than trash!”

Liu Xin’er was furious. How dare Jian Xing’er call her worse than trash?

Jian Xing’er said coldly, “What? Did I say something wrong? Can you compare to trash?”

“If you were not the daughter of the Liu family, you would be a nobody. What right do you have to show off? Do you dare to say that you earned everything you have now?”

Liu Xin’er was rendered speechless.

She didn’t want to embarrass herself at this banquet!

Especially since Hou Junlai was right behind them.

Liu Xin’er said proudly, “No matter what, I’m still the daughter of the Liu family. In a few years, I’ll become the CEO of the Liu Corporation.”

“What about you? You’re nothing. If not for the Hou family taking you in back then, you would have starved to death on the streets. Now that you’ve been divorced by Hou Junlai and chased out of the Hou family’s home, you can’t rely on Junlai anymore. You can only beg on the streets!”

Hou Xiaoyu also walked over and said viciously, “Jian Xing’er, you’re too shameless. My brother doesn’t want you anymore. You guys are already divorced, but you still followed him to the banquet?”

Jian Xing’er had a calm expression. She didn’t want to talk to these two idiots at all.

Liu Xin’er and Hou Xiaoyu were like mad dogs that bit anyone they saw. Jian Xing’er didn’t want to lower herself to the level of mad dogs.

Hou Xiaoyu turned to look at Shangguan Ding and immediately said, “Sir, you have such bad taste!”

“You’re so handsome, so why would you be with someone like Jian Xing’er? When she was still the daughter-in-law of the Hou family, she was very promiscuous. Her only ability was to act like a slut!”

Shangguan Ding was clever, so by now, he could tell what was going on.

Shangguan Ding found it funny.

From the moment he saw Jian Xing’er, Shangguan Ding knew that she wasn’t an ordinary person.

Shangguan Ding said coldly, “It’s not that I have bad taste, but you people have bad taste.”

“The Hou family will definitely regret it. I haven’t known Jian Xing’er for long, so I don’t know her capabilities. However, from my experience, Jian Xing’er is a capable person. I can only say that you people are short-sighted. She is way out of the league of you people.”
