Chapter 145: Dragon Boat Festival, A Time for Reunion

limbed straight into bed, pulling the covers over herself to sleep.She just reflected on herself in the bathroom, thinking that crying into his arms earlier was too embarrassing.She hadn't intended to..."Joe, you two should communicate properly..." Zhu Xiaowei stopped in her tracks and pulled her back, offering a piece of advice.

"Husband and wife I've been wondering if we really even qualify as a couple."

Her face masked her emotions, a faint smile playing at the corner of her lips, tinged with self-deprecating amusement.

As for the marriage, he kept this matter from her. Xia Chui Xue and the others knew about it, but she had no right to ask. To put it bluntly, she was just a woman who gave birth to children for him.

Lu Qinan and the others were his circle of brothers, Xia Chui Xue was a high-ranking executive at his company, what was she She didn't manage anything, only responsible for giving birth to children.

She bit her lip, letting out a wry smile, "Actually, I knew it from the beginning. I was way out of his league…"

Zhu Xiaowei was shocked by her words, especially when she saw Qiao Baier's eyes red and swollen, tilting her head to glance back. The man stood behind them, his gaze fixed on them.

Zhu Xiaowei hesitated before speaking, "Jun Zhimu should have come here to find you himself. You just left like that, he'll be embarrassed... Don't make things difficult for him."

Qiao Bao'er looked at her without speaking, her eyes drooping slightly, her pupils filled with complexity.

Why am I always told that I'm making a fuss

"Zhi Mu, we still have a meeting this afternoon..." Although the hotel lobby was spacious, the voice was clear enough for them to hear.

"Still here, Zhu Xiaowei Do you really want to be kicked out by security"

Qiao Baoer forced a smile on her face, strode forward, and went straight to the safety door without waiting for Zhu Xiaowei to react.

"Qiao Ba'er, wait for me..." Zhu Xiaowei didn't care about anything else anymore, and immediately followed her best friend.

Two women darted through the opulent hotel lobby, soon disappearing into the crowd...

The man behind them frowned, glaring fiercely at the direction they had vanished in. His lips were pressed into a thin line, his face dark and menacing.

"Who is that woman..."

"My wife," Jun Zhi Mu said coldly, dropping the three words.

Guan Lei stared at him, her face pale with shock.

No matter what, you're legally his wife since you two are already married.

Zhu Xiaowei caught up with Qiao Baor's footsteps and, as a mediator persuaded, "I think Jun Zhimu doesn't have any airs in front of you. When you weren't at the company, those high-level executives were terrified of him. In meetings, just one look from him would scare them so much that they hesitated for three seconds before daring to speak... He should value you."

In fact, it's a lie to say that marrying into a family of a different social class isn't humbling, especially marrying into the Jun family.

Jo Bao'er didn't want to talk about this with her, so she changed the subject. "Zhu Xiaowei, don't you think that good women usually meet scumbags, while most nice guys marry women who are unworthy"

"I guess so."

"So, either Jun Zhimu is a scumbag, or I'm the one who's insignificant." Qiao Bao'er gave herself a self-deprecating smile.

Zhu Xiaowei raised an eyebrow, glared at her with a hint of displeasure, "The fact that you can smile means you're fine. I was actually worried about you."

Jo Baoer is usually carefree, so it's unlike her to make a fuss over such a small matter.

"Zhu Xiaowei, today if you don't take me in, I really have nowhere to go."

"Don't speak so bleakly…"

Zhu Xiaowei's blind date was ruined, but they went to the city east shopping mall and went on a spending spree, buying several large bags of clothes. They went home in high spirits.

Last week, Qiao Bao'er stayed at her place for a whole week. She already had pajamas and toothbrushes there. Qiao Bao'er felt more and more comfortable in this little nest of hers. It wasn't as cold and aloof as Jun's house; it was warmer and more cozy.

"Zhu Xiaowei, last time you said your mom and they were planning to pressure you into selling this apartment to your brother so he could save money for a new house, is there any update Has it been resolved"

Qiao Bao'er had dinner outside with her and just came back. She brushed her teeth and then snuggled into bed, stretching her limbs before going to sleep.

Zhu Xiaowei took out another new pillow from the closet and threw it to her, then climbed onto the bed immediately. The two women huddled together, chatting about everyday life.

"My household mess has been resolved. I guess Ma Jun got scared by Junzhi last time and wouldn't dare to bother me anymore..." Zhu Xiaowei sized her up with a mischievous glint in her eyes, "Shouldn't you give your husband a call"

Jo Baoer's face darkened, and she said nothing.

"Hey, you wouldn't be thinking of mooching off me at my place for another week, would you" Zhu Xiaowei was quite annoyed.

"...You might have to stay here until your stepson is born..."

Qiao Bao'er murmured softly, then lay down on the bed, pulled up the blanket, and went to sleep honestly.

"You're going to keep leaning on me!" Zhu Xiaowei was so scared she couldn't sleep. say much, as if he was afraid of being blamed by the new boss for not doing his job well, so he went straight back to work."I heard that the legal person of this company is Lu Qinan's elder brother."...
