    Chapter 350 Why Should You Give Up?

    Lin Chenghui took a step forward, his expression serious.

    "I've been living in a fog these past few years. My parents wanted to find a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for me, but before they could introduce anyone, I regained my senses. Before marrying Wang Yunshan, I had never been in contact with any female comrade! Jiang Ting, you must take responsibility for your words. Defaming my character and causing trouble between my wife and me—I won't let this go easily!"

    Jiang Ting's mind went blank, and she suddenly looked at him, her gaze filled with shock.

    "You regained your senses before your parents could arrange a marriage for you? So you're not a fool now?"

    Wang Yunshan couldn't hold back any longer, "I'll repeat, my husband was never a fool!"

    Jiang Ting, bewildered, slumped onto the steps. According to the course of her previous life, Lin Chenghui never had the chance to regain his senses; he smoothly went through the marriage arrangement and married her.

    But in this life, he regained his senses before the marriage could be arranged.

    Does this mean that if she had married Lin Chenghui as in her past life, she would now be the one enjoying prosperity?

    Jiang Ting looked bewildered. Given a second chance, she had always thought about stealing Jiang Yu's marriage and taking her place to enjoy city life, never deeply considering why fate had allowed her to live again.

    "Jiang Ting, don't think that staying silent will get you off the hook! Speak up!" Wang Yunshan shouted.

    As soon as Fu Xiangyang entered, he saw Jiang Ting being berated by everyone.

    He immediately stepped forward, protecting Jiang Ting.

    "What do you all want?"

    Wang Yunshan looked at him, "Are you Jiang Ting's husband?"

    "I am."

    She sneered, "No wonder your wife looks down on you, with such a weak appearance. You should ask her properly why she keeps her eyes on my husband when she has her own? Saying that my husband was originally hers, that she gave me this luck? Does she think I need her to hand me anything?"

    Xu Lihua kept nodding, "She even spread rumors, saying Lin Chenghui was a fool. But he's not a fool; he just got transferred to the Public Security Bureau!"

    Fu Xiangyang had been wary of Lin Chenghui before, and now the man himself was standing before him.

    If Lin Chenghui had been after Jiang Ting, he would have had a reason to act.

    But it was Jiang Ting who kept thinking about him, making him, as her husband, feel completely humiliated!

    "Jiang Ting, what's really going on! If you really like him that much, I'll divorce you, and you can leave right now!"

    Wang Yunshan chuckled, "What are you talking about? My husband and Jiang Ting have barely met a few times. What's this about liking or not liking?"

    Jiang Ting admitted that she regretted it, and the more she thought about it, the more distressed she became.

    If she had married Lin Chenghui back then, what would Wang Yunshan have to do with it!

    But she didn't have the courage to divorce Fu Xiangyang. Where would she go if she left the Fu household?

    "Xiangyang, I was just talking nonsense. I only ever considered you. If you don't believe me, ask Jiang Yu!"

    Jiang Yu glanced at her, "Then why did you drag Lin Chenghui into this? Ruining his reputation everywhere."

    Jiang Ting bit her lip, "I was just jealous of Wang Yunshan, feeling uncomfortable, so I said those things. Are you satisfied now?"

    With that, she shoved Fu Xiangyang aside and ran into the house in a rage.

    "Ugh, what's with her attitude? Xiangyang, you really need to keep her in check!"

    Fu Xiangyang's face turned pale. "Aunt Xu, mind your own business."

    After saying that, he followed the others into the house.

    Wang Yunshan rolled her eyes. "Totally nuts. Next time, I'll slap her!"

    Only Jiang Yu understood why Jiang Ting reacted this way.

    It all boiled down to her regrets.

    But you can't turn back the clock.

    "Don't be mad. Let's grab a bite at Dongke Lai. Since you'll be living in the city from now on, we should hang out more."

    She had previously suggested Wang Yunshan come work in the city, but she couldn't bring herself to leave Lin Chenghui.

    Now that Lin Chenghui has also been transferred, she could keep an eye out for job opportunities for Wang Yunshan.

    At the mention of work, Wang Yunshan smiled shyly.

    "I'm pregnant, so I probably won't be working for a while."

    Jiang Yu exclaimed in surprise, "You're pregnant? How far along are you?"

    Wang Yunshan smiled, "Just over two months—you can't tell yet, right?"

    "That's wonderful! I have to be this baby's godmother," Jiang Yu gently touched her belly, careful not to press too hard.

    "Of course, only you can be the godmother—no one else!" Wang Yunshan teased.

    Bringing up work, she couldn't help but think of He Feiyan.

    "Where did Feiyan get assigned?"

    Jiang Yu didn't want to explain too much—it would only cause her distress.

    "She got assigned to the commune school near us."

    Unexpectedly, Wang Yunshan looked puzzled. "No way! Hui Zi has a cousin who teaches at the commune school, and I saw this year's assignment list—Feiyan's name wasn't on it."

    Once the assignments are out, the schools would definitely get notified to prepare for the new teachers.

    "Yun Shan, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Jiang Yu asked.

    Unless Yuan Jiayin slipped up and didn't cover her tracks.

    "I didn't mess up! Hui Zi knows about it too—I even brought it up with his cousin, wondering where Feiyan would end up."

    Jiang Yu frowned slightly. "Is Jiang Ningning on the list?"

    "Yeah, actually! But how'd you know?"

    Jiang Yu then filled her in on the drama between Jiang Ningning and He Feiyan.

    If the school's assignment list definitely includes Jiang Ningning, this could be proof.

    Wang Yunshan waved her hand dismissively. "Why bother with all that? Just go straight to the education bureau, right, Hui Zi?"

    Lin Chenghui was momentarily stunned, then nodded in understanding.

    "Yes, I happened to help someone recently who is the deputy director of the Education Bureau. I'll bring this matter up with him tomorrow. It's just a small thing."

    Jiang Yu and He Feiyan exchanged glances, excitedly grabbing her hand.

    "Hurry up and thank Brother Hui!"

    He Feiyan had been so stressed lately, her hair was almost falling out, thinking that the spot had been snatched by Jiang Ningning. This time, she thought she had no choice but to give up.

    Unexpectedly, just when things seemed hopeless, Lin Chenghui arrived, and the problem was solved easily.

    "Brother Hui, can you really help me? Won't it be too much trouble? Actually, I could go to the commune school, but having the spot taken from me just makes me feel upset."

    Lin Chenghui smiled, "You're Brother Yue's sister, so you're like a sister to me too. Such a small matter is no trouble at all. No need to be so polite."

    Wang Yunshan was indignant, "Exactly, it's no big deal! She took something from you, why should you give in? If everyone acted like this, what would be the point of rules? Society would fall apart!"

    He Feiyan smiled, scratching her head.

    "If it's no trouble, then thank you, Brother Hui, Sister Yunshan. I'll use tea instead of wine to toast you first."

    Lin Chenghui picked up his teacup and gently tapped it against hers, "No need to thank me. Even without me, your brother could have handled it."

    He just knew that He Tingyue didn't want to have anything to do with the He family.

    After leaving Dong Ke Lai, Lin Chenghui and Wang Yunshan headed straight home.

    Watching them walk away, Jiang Yu sighed softly, "Yunshan has found the right person."

    He Feiyan rested her head on Jiang Yu's shoulder, "Sister-in-law, is my brother the right one?"

    Jiang Yu gave her a look, "Isn't it obvious? Let's go home."

    As the family chatted and laughed on their way home, Jiang Yu saw He Qianqian, who was with a crying little boy demanding snacks.

    The little boy's cries were so loud they echoed down the street.

    Jiang Yu walked over, "Qianqian, who is he?"

    He Qianqian sighed helplessly, "He's Sister Tong's son. She's working late tonight, so she asked me to watch him for a bit."

    "Where's his father?"

    "I don't know, but he's not around."

    He Qianqian had thought watching a kid would be no big deal.

    But she hadn't expected Wang Tong's son to be so naughty and stubborn.

    At this late hour, he not only insisted on going out to play but also demanded she buy him snacks from Shun Lin Zhai.

    Shun Lin Zhai was already closed. Where was she supposed to get them?

    Even though he was a teenager, he acted like a spoiled brat.

    Before He Qianqian could calm him down, the boy stood up and pushed her away.

    "I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'm going to find my dad!"

    He Qianqian anxiously called out, "It's so late, where are you going to find your dad!"

    She didn’t even have time to greet Jiang Yu before hurrying after him.

    Jiang Yu shook her head and smiled, "Sister Tong is so composed, but her son is surprisingly lively."

    He Tingyue looked away, lost in thought.

    "Do you remember seeing Jiang Mingrui at the cinema?"

    Jiang Yu was taken aback, unsure why he brought this up so suddenly.

    Looking into He Tingyue's deep eyes, his past words flashed through her mind.

    The man with Jiang Mingrui was married, and He Tingyue had seen his son.

    She gasped, "That man is Sister Tong's...?"

    He Tingyue replied calmly, "I haven’t met Sister Tong’s husband, but it’s almost certain."

    He’d seen that chubby boy at the cinema and heard him call that man "Dad."

    He Feiyan looked puzzled, "Sister-in-law, what’s going on?"

    Jiang Yu shook her head, "Never mind, let’s head home."

    It wasn’t her place to meddle in someone else’s affairs.

      Jiang Ting is bad, but she is too unlucky in her past life. I don’t know why Lu’s condition is better in this life. And Wang hits the Jackpot
