Lu Zeng thought about it seriously, then shook his head, "Nothing happened? I just asked for leave at noon."
Chen Juan nodded slightly, "You didn't ask for leave this afternoon, right?"
"No." Lu Zeng replied.
"Go back to the company." Chen Juan ordered.
"But Miss An asked you to wait for her. Does she have something to tell you?" Lu Zeng said.
"No wait." Chen Juan leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. His wife was the most important thing.
Xia Chenghe and Ji Yunyang found a restaurant and ordered super spicy crayfish, which was very enjoyable.
Midway, Ji Yunyang's cell phone rang, and his expression changed, "Sister Cheng, did Chen Juan tell you that he was on a business trip?"
Xia Cheng nodded, "Well, what's wrong?"
Ji Yunyang pushed the phone over and said, "This is a photo sent by my foreign journalist friend. Take a look."
It's a photo of Chen Juan and An Xin having dinner together. An Xin's smile comes from the heart and the sun is shining brightly.
Xia Cheng was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Isn't that just Chen Juan? There's nothing to make a fuss about. Let's eat."
Ji Yunyang moved his lips, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't know how to say it, so he had to give up, cursing Chen Juan 100 times in his heart.
I don't know what happened today. Xia Cheng has been restless. After eating, she drove on the street aimlessly.
Seeing that it was time to go to work, she didn't want to go at all. Finally, she sent a message to Lu Zeng, saying that she had some personal matters and would not go to the company in the afternoon.
Just as she was about to turn off her phone, she received a call from Chen Qiao. Her voice was a little hoarse, "Sister Cheng, come and see me."
Xia Cheng's heart sank, "What's wrong with you?"
"You'll know when you get here." Chen Qiao said in a lazy voice, "It's in my brother's apartment."
"Okay, I'll be there soon." Xia Cheng thought something had happened to her, and she arrived at her destination not long after.
He saw Chen Qiao from afar and waved to her, "Sister-in-law, come quickly!"
The two of them entered the yard together. Xia Cheng looked her up and down. There was nothing wrong with her, "Aren't you taking care of Eric?"
Chen Qiao said with a smile, "After he woke up, he said thank you for your hard work and asked me to come back and have a rest before going over. He was really considerate."
Xia Cheng said, "Then why don't you have a good rest and ask me to come?"
Chen Qiao smiled mischievously, "I didn't ask you to come, it was my mother. She wanted to meet you."
Xia Cheng paused, feeling a little resistant, "Well, I thought, I still have something to do..."
Chen Qiao stopped her and said, "Sister-in-law, my mother already knows, but it's not me who said it. She will know sooner or later anyway. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law. My mother is easy to get along with. Let's go."
The courtyard of the apartment was not big to begin with. Huang Jiaying saw it when they came in.
Chen Qiao said with a smile, "Mom, my sister-in-law is here."
Xia Cheng has regained her grace and grace. She walked forward with a graceful smile and said, "Hello, Mrs. Chen, my name is Xia Cheng."
They met in the hospital last time, but Huang Jiaying didn't pay special attention to her. Now she raised her head and looked at her carefully. When her eyes came into contact, her heart suddenly shrank and her expression changed.
But at least he had seen the world, and he calmed down immediately, "Sit down, what are your parents' names?"
Xia Cheng said "Thank you" and sat down opposite her, "My father is Xia Peilin and my mother is Yu Li."
It turned out to be Xia Peilin's daughter. No wonder she looked somewhat similar to that woman.
Huang Jiaying pushed Chen Qiao away, drank tea to calm down, poured her a cup of tea with her own hands, and then looked at her quietly.
His appearance is delicate and dignified, his eyes are clear and clean, and his whole body has a calm and refined temperament, as if he has stepped out of a painting. He has a really good appearance. His eyes are very similar to that of that woman, but lighter and clearer than hers.
Xia Cheng drank tea slowly, calmly and beautifully, and did not ask why he was looking for her. She was indeed a calm person.
Huang Jiaying saw that she was not confused at all, so she had to speak first, "I heard that you and Qiaoqiao have known each other for a long time. Qiaoqiao admires you very much and praises you full of praise."
Xia Cheng smiled politely and said, "Yes, we have known each other abroad."
Huang Jiaying sneered with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
"So it's like this. My Chen family has a very strict upbringing and the three children behave appropriately. Miss Xia is really good at it. After meeting my daughter, she married my son and asked him to hide it from us. The matter was settled. That’s how I leaked the news.”
Xia Cheng knew that the person who came here was evil. She was mocking herself. She had a purpose in contacting her daughter. It was through her daughter that she married his son, and she was killed first and later revealed.
Xia Cheng is like this. She respects others as much as others respect her. If they are sarcastic or sarcastic to her, she will not be polite.
But after all, she was Chen Juan's mother. Xia Cheng remained polite and took a sip of tea. "Mrs. Chen, you can ask your son why we got married. There is no need to speculate on your own."
Bringing out her son to support her, Huang Jiaying gave her a sharp look.
"Hmph, if it weren't for you, Ah Juan would have been with Shen Wan a long time ago. They are a match made in heaven."
Ha, it turns out that she is the head of a wealthy family. She thinks that her son is the best person in the world. He is only licked by others, and it is someone else who licks him, but it is not her, Xia Cheng.
"Mrs. Chen, it seems that they met first, so why don't you hold a wedding for them earlier, so that nothing will happen to me?" Xia Cheng said with a smile, "Are you right?"
Her calm expression made Huang Jiaying feel depressed, but she couldn't find the words to refute.
She was determined to have a son. Ah Juan was very decisive in doing things. He married this woman and kept it secret. It seemed that he was very conniving towards this woman.
After all, Huang Jiaying was in a certain city and would not make a fuss like an unsophisticated woman.
I heard from the second child that this Xia Cheng has a close relationship with Eric and even stayed alone in the hotel room for a long time.
Who knows if she deliberately approached Chen Juan to help Eric harm Hua Tian, so Huang Jiaying's main purpose of asking her to come today was to give her a heads up and test her attitude.
If the purpose is really impure, then she can't let her son go.
Huang Jiaying took a breath and looked majestic.
"Since you and Ah Juan are married, you are members of my Chen family. You must put the interests of the Chen family first in your actions. They all say that colleagues are enemies. Why do you still have an affair with Eric? Now I will give you Make two conditions, and if you agree, I will recognize you as my daughter-in-law."
She used a condescending tone and said that she could only become the Chen family's wife if she agreed to her conditions, as if Xia Cheng had to be his son.
Xia Cheng said nothing, obviously waiting for what she would say next.
Huang Jiaying paused for a moment, "Cut off all relations with Eric, or resign from Huatian and divorce Ah Juan."
Xia Cheng held the cup and paused. What she wanted to do and what others forced her to do were two different things.
Eric was just a part of her past. She never thought that she would have anything to do with him again. Time would bring this past to an end.
But Mrs. Chen directly concluded that they had an affair and cooperated inside and outside to deal with Hua Tian. This was an insult to her Xia Cheng's personality.
Mrs. Chen can make excuses to slander others, but as for Chen Juan, there are scandals flying all over the world, but she doesn't mention them at all, as if her son does these things as a matter of course.
Huang Jiaying's voice rose a bit, "So, how do you choose?"
