Qin Zhenzhen left the study and resumed her tasks, while Su Ning couldn’t contain her curiosity. She questioned, “Third Sister-in-law, you and your Fourth Brother were just…”
Qin Zhenzhen responded straightforwardly, “We were discussing something, and my Fourth Brother has agreed to divorce me and your Third Brother.” Su Ning and Su Cheng’s expressions darkened upon hearing this news.
“Third Sister-in-law, can’t you just… divorce our Third Brother?” Su Ning’s voice was filled with sadness.
Qin Zhenzhen took the opportunity to impart some wisdom. “Remember what I told you before? You should hold on to what warms your heart and let go of what doesn’t. People’s feelings change, and if you can’t win them back, you should let go. Don’t stubbornly fight for a man who doesn’t love you.”
“Forced relationships are never fulfilling. You’ll understand that when you experience it yourself.”
“So, don’t follow in my footsteps in the future. You’ll regret it if you do.”
Su Ning was taken aback by Qin Zhenzhen’s words, but soon enough, she grasped the message behind them.
She had a penchant for attractive men, much like Qin Zhenzhen. She even had certain criteria for choosing a partner, prioritizing looks over financial stability, hoping for good-looking children as a result.
She noticed that Qin Zhenzhen seemed to have perceived her thoughts. Was she trying to give her a subtle reminder?
Su Cheng, too, voiced his concern. “Third Sister-in-law, when do you plan to divorce Third Brother?”
Qin Zhenzhen replied, “After your Third Brother completes the examination.”
Su Ning questioned further, “If my Third Brother becomes a Cultivated Talent, will you still go through with the divorce?”
She didn’t want to be the wife of a Cultivated Talent, did she?
Qin Zhenzhen smiled and replied, “If your Third Brother becomes a Cultivated Talent, I will divorce him even more. The gap between us will grow wider, and he might become even more arrogant, you know?”
“What?” Su Ning was taken aback by Qin Zhenzhen’s response.
Qin Zhenzhen continued, half-jokingly, “But don’t worry, I’m treating you well because you treat me well. It’s called changing someone’s heart. Besides, your Third Brother is destined for success in the future. If he treats you well, he might return the favor.”
Su Ning contemplated the situation. She and her Fifth Brother would surely do everything in their power to prevent the divorce between their Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law.
It was getting dark, and he was not back yet.
Su Ning and Su Cheng already went to the yard for the umpteenth time.
Qin Zhenzhen found that strange too. Did he go out again?
But why didn’t he tell his family about this?
Look at how worried his brother and sister were.
“Third Sister-in-law, it is so late and our Second Brother is not home yet.
Could something have happened to him in the mountains?”
“Are you sure that he is in the mountains and not wandering about on the street?”
Su Ning and Su Cheng said in unison, “He must have gone into the mountains to dig yams!”
“Second Brother said that he is not going anywhere these days. He is going to dig yams and leave all the money to us.”
“Also, if he goes out, he will definitely tell us.”
In his brother and sister’s eyes, this hooligan was a good second brother no matter what.
Qin Zhenzhen consoled them. “In this case, don’t worry. Let’s wait and see. If he doesn’t come back, we can go and find him together.”
Su Ning and Su Cheng asked together, “Are you coming with us?”
Qin Zhenzhen nodded. “It would be dangerous for you two to go into the mountains at night alone.”
Su Ning was so grateful that her eyes turned wet.. “Thank you, Third
Sister-in-law!”
