Chapter 235: Chapter 171 How Did You Marry Such a Man?_2
Su Nian felt that her son made some sense and was unsure how to respond.
At that moment, she saw a man walking ahead, and the woman who had been hanging on his arm had disappeared without a trace.
Their eyes met and Su Nian gave him a disdainful glance, clearly showing her displeasure.
However, he ignored Su Nian’s emotions and approached to ask: "How is Jin Qiu doing?"
"Tang Ge, do you even have the shame to ask such a question?"
Tang Ge sighed and listened as Su Nian continued, "On the day of the big wedding, a woman suddenly claimed she was pregnant with her own husband’s child, and her husband left with that woman without a word, leaving her with a mess. How do you think she could be?!"
"Is she alright? I’ve been unable to reach her on the phone," he said.
Su Nian scoffed sarcastically, "Don’t worry, she won’t die without you; she won’t do anything rash."
"Mom! Hurry up!" Su Zhen’s urging voice came from afar.
Without further words, Su Nian left, pulling Su Bao along.
Tang Ge stood there stunned while Xue Shan emerged from a nearby toilet, draping affectionately over his waist: "Oh my dear, I think our son is very naughty, always moving about."
Tang Ge just gave a perfunctory smile: "What do you want to eat today?"
...
Su Nian thought to herself that since Shen Hanxiu had helped her, she ought to invite him for a meal.
They found a reasonably priced home-style restaurant near the school.
"Hey, isn’t that the handsome uncle who works with Uncle Shen?" Su Zhen said as they entered the restaurant, looking around and pointing at someone.
Su Nian thought to herself that there were too many handsome uncles at Shen Hanxiu’s company, and initially didn’t pay much attention until she glimpsed Yang Zichen and saw Wei Lan sitting opposite him and then she stopped in her tracks.
What were these two doing together?
Puzzled, Su Nian walked over: "Lanlan?"
Seeing Su Nian, Wei Lan felt a burst of closeness and immediately approached her, her eyes reddening with grievance: "Sister Niannian..."
Su Nian knew there must have been some unhappiness between her and Jing Zan, so she didn’t ask any further, "You guys are eating here too? Let’s get a bigger table and sit together."
"Sure," Wei Lan was more than willing, feeling too pressured being alone with Special Assistant Yang.
The decision was made by the two women, and the two men naturally had no objections and just followed.
At the large table, Su Nian pulled Wei Lan to sit inside and asked quietly, "Lanlan, how did things go last time?"
"I’ve decided to get a divorce. I just came back from the civil affairs bureau."
"Did you divorce?"
Wei Lan shook her head: "No, Jing Zan refuses."
"Ugh, why are men these days so shameless? They don’t cherish you when together, but refuse to let go when you want to leave. Do they all want to be emperors with thousands of concubines?" Su Nian grew angrier as she spoke: "Today at the parent-teacher meeting, I ran into Tang Ge. He even had the nerve to ask how Qiuqiu was doing, men really are all the same!"
"Mom, keep it down!" Su Zhen pouted in complaint, then turned to Shen Hanxiu with a sweet smile, "Uncle, could you order a cream roll, please?"
"Sure, order whatever you want."
Sweetly smiling, Su Zhen then looked at Su Nian and said, "Uncle Shen is an exceptional man! He lets me eat whatever I want, and later he’s going to take me shopping for new clothes!"
Su Nian realized that her dear daughter was trying to counter her previous statement that "all men are no good," while also seizing the opportunity to praise her Uncle Shen.
"What new clothes, after eating go back to school for a nap, you’ll be dozing off in class again later!"
"Hmph, Mom is not good at all, Uncle, shall we not order dumplings for Mom?"

Ignoring Su Zhen, Su Nian continued talking to Wei Lan: "What will you do if he refuses? Does he really want to have one person at home and another outside?"
Wei Lan helpless shook her head, "I don’t know what to do."
She, being just a commoner, had no power or influence to make a difference.
Su Nian gnashed her teeth and sneakily glanced at Shen Hanxiu, her heart in turmoil.
She couldn’t possibly use Shen Hanxiu like she helped Ziyan during her divorce, could she? Even thinking about it made her feel incredibly shameless; she needed to think of another solution...
Both women were at a loss when the usually silent Yang Zichen suddenly spoke, "This shouldn’t be difficult; I can help you."
Wei Lan looked around, then at Shen Hanxiu, and pointed to herself puzzled, "Special Assistant Yang, are you talking to me?"
Yang Zichen nodded: "Just live your life as normal, leave the rest to me."
Shen Hanxiu gave him a glance. As friends for many years, he could see through his intentions but chose to keep it to himself.
Regardless, Yang Zichen’s words were reassuring, and Wei Lan, although skeptical, confirmed again, "Special Assistant Yang, can you really help me? But how? What do I need to do?"
Yang Zichen took a sip of tea to mask his feelings, "No need to worry about it; this matter doesn’t need your intervention." He wasn’t helping her, but himself.
Wei Lan seemed a bit incredulous, could her divorce go through without her involvement? Thinking again, since Shen Hanxiu was powerful, his assistant must be capable too; with no other options left, trusting Yang Zichen once seemed harmless: "Then I’ll trouble Special Assistant Yang, if there’s anything you need, feel free to contact me!"
Yang Zichen, with an unfathomable look, responded lightly: "Hmm."
Shen Hanxiu eyed him, when had he become so adept at pretending?
After the meal, Yang Zichen drove Wei Lan home, and Su Nian and Shen Hanxiu took the kids back to school.
Once the children were dropped off, the atmosphere between the two became somewhat weird.
Reaching school gates, Shen Hanxiu headed straight to his car_ed a follow.
