Regretful Beijing Marriage

In the blink of an eye, the two figures had disappeared.

She frowned slightly.

Isn't Fu Huaiyan still in the hospital?

Has he already recovered and been discharged from the hospital so quickly?

Will the Fu family allow him to come out?

But the next second, Jiang Yining smiled, the curve of her lips revealing a chill.

Shen Miaoyin's matter is always the top priority for Fu Huaiyan.

Forget about superficial injuries; even if he broke his leg...

He would crawl to her side even if he had to, as long as Shen Miaoyin spoke.

A waiter nearby noticed her engrossed in the book and casually remarked to her.

"Those two customers are our regulars. They always come together, and they seem to have a really good relationship."

Jiang Yining gave a faint twitch at the corner of her mouth, but didn't reply.

But something seemed to gently brush against my heart.

It doesn't hurt.

She remembered when they first got married, she had no money.

After saving up for half a month by living frugally, I happily chose a four-star hotel.

I'd like to invite Fu Huaiyan out for a meal.

That was the best place she could choose.

But all he got in return was a cold reply from Fu Huaiyan.

"Do you think I would eat something like that?"

She felt extremely embarrassed and ran out after only saying sorry.

From that day on, she remembered that fine food from non-five-star hotels should never be served to Fu Huaiyan.

Jiang Yining now understands that even someone as naturally proud and picky as Fu Huaiyan...

When he meets the person he loves, he can even eat at a roadside hole-in-the-wall restaurant.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yining tugged at the corner of her lips.

I felt nauseous.

She didn't care about their messy affairs.

All she wanted to know was when she would get the divorce certificate.

She picked up her phone and sent a message.

When should the paperwork be completed?

This time, Fu Huaiyan's phone did not reply automatically.

The other side replied quickly.

[It will be processed upon discharge.]

Immediately afterwards, he sent another message.

Is it urgent?

Jiang Yining stared at the screen for two seconds, and just wanted to laugh.

He has time to accompany Shen Miaoyin to stroll through roadside stalls, but not time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate.

Then, turning around and asking in return if they're in a hurry, they really know how to play the double standard.

She couldn't be bothered to waste words with him.

[See you at the Civil Affairs Bureau in 3 days. The doctor said it was just a superficial injury, and you could be discharged that day.]

Even if you can't be discharged, you should at least be able to send it over when you have some free time.

After I sent the message, the other party didn't respond for a long time.

Jiang Yining wasn't in a hurry and finished her noodles slowly.

When I got up to pay the bill, my phone screen finally lit up again.

【Um. 】

Jiang Yining inexplicably felt that even through the screen, this single word exuded a sense of oppression.

It seems she interrupted their date?

But she quickly scoffed.

She must have a lot of free time.

Who cares if he's in a good mood or not.

If Fu Huaiyan is unhappy, then she will be happy.

After putting away his phone, Jiang Yining drove back to the Ji family home.

The moment the door was opened, it was also being pushed outwards.

Ji Wenting paused for a moment, his dark eyes falling on Jiang Yining's face.

Jiang Yining was a little embarrassed and was about to say something when Ji Wenting spoke first.

"Come and pick up some things, I'll be leaving right away."

He spoke softly, clearly trying to defuse the situation.

Jiang Yining chuckled.

"This is Ji Shu's home, and Mr. Ji can come and go as he pleases."

"I'll move out in a few days once my apartment is sorted out."

Ji Wenting looked up at her for a few seconds, but didn't respond.

"I was away on a business trip and couldn't make it back on opening day."

"I'll make up for the gift later."

"Need not."

Jiang Yining shook her head.

"Ji Shu has already given enough."

The two fell silent for a moment.

Ji Wenting suddenly said something softly.

"Yi Ning, when did we become so distant?"

"Didn't you used to call me Brother Ji the most?"

Jiang Yining was taken aback by his question and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Yes, she and Ji Shu have known each other since middle school.

They are best friends.

When she first arrived at the Ji family home, she didn't even know who she was before calling Ji Wenting "brother."

Ji Wenting never corrected her.

She kept shouting like that until graduation.

If it weren't for 7 years ago...

Just as she was lost in thought, Ji Shu heard a noise and ran out while wearing a face mask.

"Ningning, Uncle, what are you doing standing at the door? Come in and chat!"

She ripped off her face mask and came closer with a grin.

"Ningning, my uncle specially brought us some things!"

"His business trip is over, and he'll be staying in Jiangcheng from now on. If anyone bullies you, just say so, your uncle will stand up for us!"

As he spoke, he pulled the two of them into the living room.

Ji Wenting stopped in time.

"It's getting late, you should all get some rest. I'll be going now."

Before the words were even finished, the person had already turned and left.

Ji Shu stared at the empty doorway and couldn't help but pout.

"Why are you walking so fast... It's been so long since you two last saw each other, you haven't even exchanged a single word."

Jiang Yining raised her hand and poked her forehead.

"Mr. Ji is very busy, don't overthink it."

Ji Shu rubbed her forehead and nodded obediently.

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you. I'm going to sleep. I'll be busy tomorrow."

The next morning, Jiang Yining went to the clinic early.

I didn't get a chance to catch my breath until noon.

During her break, she casually opened an academic forum.

I just realized that the message notifications are already at 99+.

I clicked in and found out that Dr. Meng had posted a thread yesterday, directly tagging her.

[To this anonymous netizen, I believe you mean well, but your haphazard answers mislead patients and deliberately disrupt the forum's order. These remarks are irresponsible towards the majority of patients.]

I request the administrator to permanently ban this account to restore order to the platform.

The comments section below the post was filled with Meng Yao's fans celebrating wildly.

[What kind of shady tactics do they dare to try and take advantage of Yao Shen? Don't they even know their own limitations!]

[Meng Yao is a genius student of Professor Wang Hongde! Don't you ragtag bunch have any shame?]

[The person upstairs can say whatever they want, but don't bring up that unlucky stuff. It's good that Yao Yao wasn't morally blackmailed and distanced herself in time, otherwise she would have been dragged down too!]

Jiang Yining accurately grasped the key words.

Is Meng Yao Wang Hongde's student?

She's truly shameless to the extreme.

Back then, I only audited a few open classes and never even met the professor in person.

Now they dare to brazenly misuse the name of their sect.

She used her mentor to create a persona.

They even turned around and distorted the truth to slander their mentor.

Stealing her academic achievements wasn't enough.

Now even the professor's name is being used as a stepping stone.

Jiang Yining felt a fire burning in her chest.

What has she missed all these years?!

She took a deep breath and replied directly in the comments section.

[@Dr. Meng, back then you dared to claim you were Professor Wang's student without even meeting him in person. Did you really think nobody knew the truth?]

Meng Yao, you know perfectly well how you achieved your results; what's fake can't become real.
