After Getting a Divorce, I Continued Being a Miracle Doctor - Chapter 56

56 Information in Advance

Hou Junlai’s mother stood up to chase after her, but Hou Junlai’s father stopped her.

Mr. Hou sighed and said, “Don’t go.”

Mrs. Hou ignored Mr. Hou’s words, but when Mrs. Hou reached the door, Jian Xing’er had already driven away.

Mrs. Hou could only enter the house in disappointment.

!!
Hou Qiang said with a complicated expression, “Jian Xing’er left?”

Mrs. Hou squeezed out a smile and said, “Yes, Jian Xing’er said that she still has many things to do, so she’ll come again when she has time next time. This girl is very filial.”

Hou Qiang and Gu Yao instantly relaxed.

As long as Jian Xing’er would still come, they would have a chance to interact more and slowly build a good relationship with her.

Hou Qiang said, “We came in a hurry this time, so we didn’t bring any gifts. The next time Jian Xing’er comes back, tell us in advance. We’ll prepare some gifts.”

Mrs. Hou immediately said, “Alright, I’ll definitely inform you in advance next time.”

Since Jian Xing’er had left, it was useless for Hou Qiang and Gu Yao to stay here. After a few polite exchanges, Hou Qiang and Gu Yao left.

After they left, only Mr. Hou, Mrs. Hou, and Hou Xiaoyu were left at home.

Mr. Hou sighed softly and said, “Sigh! Look, it’s all for nothing again. Jian Xing’er didn’t buy it at all.”

Mrs. Hou frowned and said, “I don’t care. I can’t let anyone snatch Jian Xing’er. You’ve all seen how polite the people from the inner clan were. If it were before, the people from the inner clan wouldn’t bother with us at all. It was useless even though I tried to curry favor with them every year.”

Hou Xiaoyu said, “That’s right. Mom is right. Our family is so glorious now. This is all because of Sister-in-law. We have to let Sister-in-law and my brother remarry.”

Mr. Hou said, “I know that too, but haven’t you thought about how you chased Jian Xing’er out back then? How can Jian Xing’er possibly remarry? Junlai remarrying her is completely impossible. You can tell from Junlai’s attitude towards Jian Xing’er.”

Mrs. Hou frowned.

Mrs. Hou wasn’t stupid, so she could tell.

However, Mrs. Hou was unwilling to give up just like that.

Mrs. Hou felt very regretful that she chased such a capable daughter-in-law away herself.

Mrs. Hou pondered for a moment and said, “There must be a way. I’ll think about it again.”

Seeing Mrs. Hou like this, Mr. Hou said, “Forget it! Don’t even think about remarrying. Jian Xing’er isn’t an ungrateful person. Back then, Jian Xing’er was homeless in Sea City and we were the ones who took her in. Even if the two of them don’t remarry, Jian Xing’er isn’t our daughter-in-law. If we really need anything, as long as we look for Jian Xing’er, she will help us.”

Mrs. Hou nodded and said, “I know what you’re saying, but it’s not as good as letting Jian Xing’er be our daughter-in-law.”

Hou Xiaoyu added, “That’s right. If Jian Xing’er is in our family, all the inner clan members have to lower their heads. At that time, everyone will have to try to please us. Moreover, Jian Xing’er will only help us sincerely if she’s our daughter-in-law.”

When Mrs. Hou heard this, she said solemnly, “That’s right. We have to let the two of them remarry. Although Jian Xing’er and Shangguan Ding are friends, we can’t guarantee that they won’t fall in love one day. Shangguan Ding is so handsome and rich. Any woman would want to pounce on him, let alone Jian Xing’er!”

Mr. Hou remained silent.

Mr. Hou also liked Jian Xing’er very much. At that time, he was very against Junlai and Jian Xing’er getting a divorce, but no one listened to him.

If these people had listened to Mr. Hou back then, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.

…

Jian Xing’er was driving home.

Shangguan Ding, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, looked at Jian Xing’er and said, “I really don’t understand you! The Hou family has already treated you like that. If it were me, I would have gotten revenge on them long ago. Previously, they chased you out, but now, they’re trying to please you. This family is so shameless.”

After a pause, Shangguan Ding continued, “Hou Xiaoyu is even worse. She treats you as a fool and still wants to continue lying to you.”

Jian Xing’er said, “Back then, the Hou family took me in. Although I was also very angry, I remembered that they took me in back then, so I endured it.”

Shangguan Ding smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to have such a clear distinction between gratitude and enmity.”

Jian Xing’er smiled as she said self-deprecatingly, “I didn’t have any capabilities at that time, so the Hou family despised me because I asked for it. However, what made me angry was that Hou Junlai actually disregarded our many years of relationship and divorced me so resolutely. But I’m not angry anymore. It doesn’t matter now.”

Jian Xing’er had moved on.

Jian Xing’er only wanted to find that organization and the mastermind behind it to avenge her parents and brother!
