The title ‘Mrs. Ye’ had become something that Xinyou desperately wanted, but it was got by Venus
easily. How could Xinyou accept it?
“And don’t get cocky, do you think your life is better than me? Stop daydreaming, Kerry won’t even look
at you and you don’t even have a chance to be liked!” Xinyou gritted her teeth in sarcasm.
Venus looked cold and said with indifference, “Be liked? Are you still living in the past when women
completely relied on men? Xinyou, you’re just begging for Kerry’ s like. Why not live independently?”
“Don’t act like you’re noble. I think you can’t get him, so you can just say something to hide your
jealousy.” Xinyou snorted coldly, her tone full of disdain.
“I don’t care to be liked by him!”
She was unwilling to argue with her and it happened to be lunchtime, so she decided to eat out today
to save herself from being disturbed by others. Many people must be curious about what had just
happened.
She really wasn’t in the mood to explain.
As Venus walked down the street, she came across Lanzhou Noodles and she stopped to walk inside.
The owner of the shop was a couple, both believers in Islam. When they saw Venus, they asked her
what she wanted in a hospitable manner.
Venus ordered a beef noodles, and while she was waiting, she suddenly received a call from Kerry.
She knew why he called her, so she hung up the phone decisively.
Hot noodles were then served on the table and Venus ate a few bites, suddenly feeling a little sad.
Perhaps it was because of the hot noodles, or her situation at the moment.
Through the kitchen door, she saw the couple tacitly cooperate. The wife was making soup, while the
husband was skillfully stretching the noodles, with a small fan on top of his head, whirring and blowing.
Occasionally, the wife would help her husband to wipe his sweat with a towel, and the husband would
help his wife try the soup.
Although their life was difficult, they perfectly illustrated what was ‘share the joys and sorrows’.
Venus couldn’t help but think of her marriage. Though she lived in a quite extravagant life, she felt no
love at all.
Whose life was much better?
Venus shook her head, stooping looking at them. She was eating her noodles in silence, but the phone
rang again. Venus wanted to ignore it, but it didn’t stop ringing.
Eventually, Venus answered the phone, “Hello?”
“Is it Miss Mu?”
A dignified woman’s voice came, making her freeze.
“May I know your name?”
“I’m Hao Nangong’ s mother.”
Venus looked shocked, and then she remembered something, so she asked, “Hello, aunt, what can I
do for you?”
Shuhua Chen just said directly, “It’s about my son. I want to see you. Are you free now?”
Venus thought for a moment and said, “OK, where do you want to meet?”
“How about Jindu Doulao?”
Venus looked at her half-eaten noodles and said, “No problem.”
Hanging up the phone, Venus immediately paid the money. She went out to take a taxi and directly
gave the driver the address. In the meantime, she called Kerry back.
“What’s up?” Venus asked somewhat carelessly as she looked out the window.
Kerry’ s mood was hard to judge now, with his index finger tapping on the table. His tone was low,
“Where are you now?”
“I’m not at the office right now. I’ll have something to do later and I want to take half a day off.”
Kerry asked, “Where exactly are you now?”
Venus thought for a moment and casually said, “I’m at the Shangri-La Café.”
Kerry frowned and he looked somewhat gloomy, “What are you doing there? Who are you with now?”
Venus didn’t answer, and she didn’t want to.
Her silence completely enraged him, whose anger could be felt through the phone, “Venus, answer me.
Why didn’t you answer me?”
Venus sighed and said in a clear voice, “I just met a classmate and I haven’t seen her for a long time,
so I plan to sit down and have a good chat.”
Kerry didn’t reply, and she stopped saying. Just then, the driver turned around and said to her, “Lady,
we arrived.”
Venus raised her head and saw through the window, finding the name ‘Jindu Doulao’ written on it. She
reached out to pay the money, and hung up the phone before she got off the car.
Looking at the phone that was instantly hung up, Kerry wondered if he had he been too indulgent lately!
How dare she hang up his call?
As she entered the lobby, she was greeted by a waitress with a polite smile, who asked gently, “Excuse
me, you are Miss Venus, aren’t you?”
Venus looked startled and said calmly, “That’s right.”
“Please follow me, Mrs. Nangong is waiting for you in the room on the second floor.”
