Chương 12: Is Your Marriage With Brother-in-Law Fake?
Biên tập viên: Dragon Boat Translation
The family was chatting when the doorbell suddenly rang outside the courtyard. Qian Duoduo went out to open the door and saw that it was Qian Fangfang, the 24-year-old daughter of her Second Aunt.
Qian Fangfang had always been a good student. From the first grade, she was the class monitor until she graduated from high school. When she was in university, she became the president of the student council. She was the most hardworking one among the younger generation of the Qian family. After graduation, she entered the court to work. Second Aunt also showed off everywhere because her daughter had a secure job.
Qian Fangfang was wearing a gray woolen coat and a pair of cream-white wide-legged pants. She looked gentle and generous. The first thing she did after she sat down was to hand over the red packet that she had prepared earlier with a smile.
She pushed the red packet in front of Qian Duoduo. Just by looking at the thickness of the red packet, she knew that there was a lot of money inside.
"Sister, I wish you a happy marriage and a hundred years of happiness with Brother-in-law. Actually, I wanted to come yesterday, but the court couldn't get me a leave of absence. Was my mother here to cause trouble again? I've heard about it. I apologize on her behalf. She's like this. Don't lower yourself to her level."
Qian Fangfang's personality was reserved, and she was the complete opposite of Second Aunt. She was really full of poetry and books, and her every move revealed elegance and politeness.
Although she was younger than Qian Duoduo by a year, Qian Duoduo felt inferior in front of her. She was far less hardworking than her.
Although Qian Duoduo's family had never interacted with Second Aunt, they really liked this niece of theirs. The moment Mother Qian saw Qian Fangfang, she quickly pulled her to sit down and asked Father Qian to go to the kitchen to get a set of chopsticks. She insisted that Qian Fangfang stay for dinner.
Qian Fangfang smiled and waved her hand. "Auntie, you guys go ahead. I've already had breakfast." At this point, Qian Fangfang continued, "Sis, I have something to tell you. Can we go out for a walk after you eat?"
Qian Duoduo put down the chopsticks in her hand. "I'm full. Let's go." After she finished speaking, she went back to her room and put on a coat before leaving the house with Qian Fangfang.
The two of them went to a small park near their home. Ever since Qian Fangfang left, she had been absent-minded.
"Sister, you and Brother-in-law… What's going on? My mother came home after attending your wedding yesterday and told me…"
Qian Duoduo did not need to guess to know that Second Aunt would not be able to say anything good. In fact, if it weren't for Second Aunt's meddling between the two families, her relationship with Qian Fangfang would have been better than it was now. After all, the two of them had grown up together since they were young, and nothing could replace the affection between sisters.
"What did she tell you?"
Qian Fangfang hesitated, but in the end, she couldn't help but ask, "Sis, is your marriage with Brother-in-law fake?"
Qian Duoduo's expression did not change when she heard this, but she was shocked in her heart. How did Second Aunt know about her relationship with Chen Shu? And if she knew, it meant that it wouldn't be long before everyone knew.
This was bad.
Seeing Qian Duoduo's unnatural expression, Qian Fangfang naturally had an answer in her heart.
"Sis, don't be nervous. My mother doesn't know about you and Brother-in-law. She only said that she saw you with another man some time ago. She didn't expect you to marry someone else so soon. My mom showed me a photo of your ex-boyfriend before. A few days ago, I met him at the mall when I was out shopping. At that time, he was accompanied by a woman who looked very good. The two of them were walking together in the mall. And you actually got married a few days after breaking up. You've never been an impulsive person, let alone a big event like marriage."
"So, I'm guessing that your marriage with Brother-in-law is fake."
Qian Duoduo heaved a sigh of relief. "You guessed right. It's a long story, but the truth is what you see. My ex-boyfriend is a complete scumbag. After we broke up, I didn't know how to explain it to my parents. So... I hope you don't tell them about this."
"Sis, I won't tell anyone about this. Don't worry." Qian Duoduo knew that since Qian Fangfang had promised, she would definitely keep the secret for her.
Qian Duoduo looked at her with mixed feelings. The two of them grew up together. However, every time Qian Fangfang got good grades, Second Aunt would show off her results at home. She would even mock her in front of her relatives, saying that she could not compare to Fangfang in any way.
