The Secret of Second Marriage

Hearing these words actually left me feeling quite uncomfortable.

I said, "Grandma, let's discuss this matter when President Jiang returns."

"That's right, Grandma's getting senile. The bride's side never gets to decide on marriage arrangements; it's always the groom's side who has to agree first. I'll talk to Jiang Hui about it later, and Grandma will definitely give you a big red envelope when you get married."

Grandma said with a smile.

I wasn't in the mood to laugh, and just kept eating. But before I knew it, tears suddenly fell into my rice bowl, startling me.

I quickly wiped away my tears when Grandma wasn't looking and hurriedly finished my dinner.

That night, Tangtang came back to sleep with me.

I drove Tangtang back to our neighborhood, took a bath with her, and then lay in bed gently soothing her and telling her stories.

Before going to sleep, Tangtang kissed me on the cheek and gently said, "Mommy, I love you."

"Baby, Mommy loves you too."

I say.

Tangtang asked, "Mommy, will you marry Uncle Jiang?"

"Mom doesn't know either."

I answered.

Now that things have come to this, can Mr. Jiang and I still continue our relationship? At this critical moment, I am unwilling to take the blame for him or go to jail for him.

I overthought things for a long time, but my reason told me that I hadn't done anything wrong, even if I had completely abandoned all principles and dignity and signed that plea agreement.

Then I will not only be burdened with huge debts and have my accounting certificate revoked, but I will also go to jail.

Who would love a woman like me who has just come out of prison penniless and whose reputation is ruined?

Women should always prioritize their careers; career comes first, love second.

All women who sacrifice themselves and burn themselves out for love, except for those who are blinded by love and momentarily indulging in self-pity, ultimately do not have a good ending.

……

Three days later, President Jiang was finally out of danger.

I don't know if it was the Xia family's doing or if President Jiang had made connections and used favors, but in any case, President Jiang was released without charge due to insufficient evidence.

At that time, I was listening to a lecture at a film and television company when I received a message on my phone.

A WeChat message sent by President Jiang.

The moment I saw him send me the WeChat message, I burst into tears in class. Many of the other actors were stunned. They didn't expect my acting to be so good that I could cry while listening to the teacher's lecture.

But I was very happy and excited that President Jiang was finally alright.

Mr. Jiang messaged me on WeChat: "Man, I'm so sorry to have worried you these past few days. I'm fine, nothing's wrong. You said last time that you'd treat me to dinner after you got paid, how about you treat me to a welcome-back dinner tonight?"

"it is good"

I replied with one word.

Soon, I received another call from Xia Weiwei.

She found out about the news from President Jiang much faster than I did.

She called me and said arrogantly on the phone, "Jiang Man, I've done what I promised you, now it's your turn to promise me what I've promised."

Remember this: at the most crucial moment, you abandoned President Jiang, while I found someone to save him. Between the two of us, even a fool would know who to choose.

Please stay away from President Jiang in the future. He is not a man that a common woman like you can aspire to. Do you know how many people in our circle have laughed at him since he got together with you?

"Is it a joke that a dignified CEO is dating a country chicken?"

"Xia Weiwei, please watch your tone."

My heart suddenly ached, not because Xia Weiwei's words hurt me, but because I had to keep the promise I made to someone.

Xia Weiwei was probably afraid of upsetting me and making me break my promise.

She said, "Don't blame me for being harsh, I'm just teaching you to face reality."

"We're both adults, I don't need you to teach me. Xia Weiwei, I've always thought you were a very respectable woman, but after hearing what you said to me today, I realize how rude you are!"

My voice was soft, and my feelings were complicated.

"you--"

Xia Weiwei panicked.

I said, "I will break up with President Jiang and we won't see each other for three years. Although I, Jiang Man, am poor, my character is definitely better than yours."

Xia Weiwei was furious.

However, I have already hung up the phone.

……

After getting off work in the evening, as dusk approached, I stood at the entrance of the Lemon Entertainment Film and Television Company building.

Mr. Jiang picked me up in a black Mercedes-Benz.

When I came downstairs, he was already standing under a scenic cherry blossom tree downstairs, waiting for me.

After not seeing him for many days, he was dressed in a black suit, with deep eyes, fair skin, sharp features, and a high nose bridge. He still looked tall, composed, and handsome.

In April, the red cherry blossoms bloom in profusion, as dazzling as rosy clouds, making it the best scenery in the city.

A gust of wind blew by, and petals fell, swirling and landing on the man's head. Bathed in the glow of the setting sun, they accentuated his tall and straight figure, making him look like a man who had stepped out of a painting, calm and domineering.

I walked over to him and said, "Long time no see."

"Long time no see, Man."

Mr. Jiang smiled at me, opened the passenger door, and let me sit down.
