Ding Jiayi didn’t hesitate to put all the blame on Qiao Nan. She had completely forgotten that Qiao Zijin was the one to have s.n.a.t.c.hed Chen Jun away from Qiao Nan.

She was complaining that Qiao Nan didn’t choose a good enough boyfriend such that after Qiao Zijin s.n.a.t.c.hed him away from her, Qiao Zijin didn’t manage to lead a good life.

“What is there to say? Would Chen Jun be able to control his own belt and not let it loose outside after I’ve said it?” Qiao Zijin was so angry that she kept hitting the sofa. Why did she have to say it? On what basis should she say it? If she said that she had married a rotten person like Chen Jun, Qiao Nan would definitely be gloating and happy as she had s.n.a.t.c.hed away a lousy Chen Jun from her hands. Her intervention had saved Qiao Nan from an ordeal.

However, what made Qiao Zijin angrier was that she somehow felt that when Chen Jun was together with Qiao Nan, he didn’t have this kind of temper or mannerism. Qiao Zijin wasn’t willing to admit that Chen Jun had other women outside as he had married her, and if Chen Jun had married Qiao Nan, he would have guarded her and led a good life with her.

Qiao Zijin wasn’t willing to have such thoughts and didn’t hope that this was the truth.

Under the influence of such thoughts, Qiao Zijin was even more unwilling to let others know how she had gotten along with Chen Jun back then. If not for this call today, Ding Jiayi wouldn’t have imagined that Qiao Zijin’s life after marriage was like this.

What she knew was that every time Qiao Zijin returned to her family’s home, Chen Jun would accompany her at least seven out of ten times. In front of them, Chen Jun’s att.i.tude toward Qiao Zijin wasn’t bad. The Qiao family didn’t have good conditions and couldn’t be of help to Chen Jun. However, Chen Jun was willing to accompany Qiao Zijin home again and again. Ding Jiayi always felt that it was Chen Jun’s way of doting on Zijin as he loved her.

Only if Qiao Zijin was pampered by the Chen family would Chen Jun be good to Qiao Zijin and value the Qiao family. Who knew that this wasn’t the case? “If Chen Jun is such a person, why did he follow you back every time to your family’s home in the past?”

“What do you think?” Could it be that she wanted her to admit that Chen Jun was willing to accompany her back to her family’s home even if he could take only a glance at Qiao Nan? Yes, she was first pregnant with Chen Jun’s child before marrying him. She had the t.i.tle of Mrs. Chen. However, Chen Jun’s heart was never on her.

She was not going to say such an embarra.s.sing matter.

“Why didn’t you say so earlier? If you did…” If she had said so earlier, she would definitely have let Qiao Nan leave Ping Cheng and not return all year round, as long as she handed over the money to her. If Chen Jun couldn’t see Qiao Nan, he would have to give up and lead a good life with Zijin.

Zijin had really suffered grievances. It turned out that she was bullied after marrying Chen Jun. How would the daughter she had raised up not be good? Even if Zijin had some wrongdoings, they were all forced out by Chen Jun and that wretched girl.

“Okay, Mom. The problem lies with Chen Jun. Also, I don’t want to hear Qiao Nan’s name at this point in time.” Even without Qiao Nan, Chen Jun had plenty of women outside. Those women had nothing to do with Qiao Nan. “All these years, you have gotten Qiao Nan to rent a room outside and lived in the courtyard. n.o.body can stop Chen Jun’s thoughts. Every time I was back, I would leave my son to Qiao Nan. Since when did you see Qiao Nan and Chen Jun hanging out alone, let alone her seducing Chen Jun? Even if Chen Jun had such thoughts, Qiao Nan wouldn’t dare. She did a good job. However, with Chen Jun around, she’s either out with my son or always under our watch. She did these well.”

Qiao Zijin wasn’t blind over the years. When Chen Jun was still Qiao Nan’s boyfriend, yes, she had been together with Chen Jun and even got pregnant with his child deliberately. She had used such disgraceful means to s.n.a.t.c.h Chen Jun over. It was inevitable that Qiao Zijin would project her own shortcomings on Qiao Nan.

However, as long as the two of them were in the Qiao family, although Qiao Zijin didn’t say anything on the surface, she always secretly watched Chen Jun or Qiao Nan closely. As long as the two of them were not under her watch at the same time, she would become very worried. She had to find out if they were together, or if there were others next to them.

The more Qiao Zijin cared about this, the more she realized that Qiao Nan had done a good job avoiding this situation. When Qiao Nan brought her son out to play, Chen Jun was by her side. When Chen Jun wasn’t around, Qiao Nan would be sitting in the living room.

Qiao Zijin occasionally saw a look of anxiety and eagerness in Chen Jun’s eyes. Based on Chen Jun’s faint anxious expression, Qiao Zijin knew that Qiao Nan really didn’t give him a chance for them to be alone and she always stayed far away from him.

It was also precisely because of Qiao Nan’s performance that every time Chen Jun agreed to accompany her back to her family’s home, Qiao Zijin felt that she had gained a lot of face. At the same time, she could see Chen Jun’s anxious look for Qiao Nan. It could be said that the trip back to her family home could take revenge against Qiao Nan and torture Chen Jun. This made Qiao Zijin feel good.

Ding Jiayi always thought that Qiao Zijin was filial and often returned to her family home as she missed her and Qiao Dongliang. In reality, she never truly understood the reasons why Qiao Zijin was willing to return to her family home more often.

Ding Jiayi had mentioned this matter today. It was also rare for Qiao Zijin to be willing to put in a good word for Qiao Nan. “If Qiao Nan had any thoughts, she should have become my son’s stepmother now.”

Even if she was unwilling to admit it, Qiao Zijin would only say that even though Qiao Nan was already in her forties, as long as she was willing to, a man like Chen Jun would be willing to marry an unmarried old virgin like Qiao Nan more than a twenty-five-year-old girl.

Upon thinking about the flirtatious girl that was going to marry Chen Jun, sleep in her bed, dominate her man, and hit her son, Qiao Zijin felt angry. She became even angrier when she thought of how Chen Jun would be treating this new wife better than herself back then.

In comparison, Qiao Zijin was surprised to find that if Chen Jun’s second marriage partner was Qiao Nan, she would have been more accepting of such a result. Chen Jun was Qiao Zijin’s boyfriend to begin with. She had s.n.a.t.c.hed him away from her. Now that Qiao Nan was marrying Chen Jun, it could be considered that she had returned him to the rightful owner.

She was worried about other vixens. After those women married Chen Jun, they would give birth to children for him. How was there a good stepmother? Her only son would definitely be bullied. More importantly, the children those vixens gave birth to would s.n.a.t.c.h things away from her son when they grew up.
