Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 826 - 815: The Honest Man Being Used

Even though Ye Qiu didn’t give Shen Xiu precise information, she was very happy these past couple of days, and even bought herself a coat that she had long hesitated over. Just as she was happily preparing to pick up Shen Huan, she saw someone outside the school whom she hadn’t seen in two years.

The man was wearing a long black coat, a pair of leather boots, standing tall, big and strong. Although he had a buzz cut with a scar on his face, it didn’t affect his charisma at all; in fact, it added a special allure, frequently turning heads of passersby.

"Xiao Ze?" Shen Xiu’s eyes widened.

The man saw her, walked straight over, and opened his arms wide, embracing her with a hearty laugh.

Feeling the long-lost hug, Shen Xiu couldn’t help but smile, "You’re out?"

"Yeah, did you miss me?" He held her head and kissed her forehead forcefully.

"I did." Shen Xiu’s cheeks flushed red.

Xiao Ze laughed heartily, "I knew you couldn’t forget me."

"But you should let go first, we’re at the school gate, it’d be bad if others saw." Shen Xiu mildly struggled.

Xiao Ze’s eyes turned cold, "I’m hugging my own wife, who would dare to say anything?"

Hearing him boldly claim she was his wife, Shen Xiu was both happy and guilty at once. She used to be his wife, but not anymore.

She struggled to speak, "Xiao Ze, after our divorce, I remarried."

"I know." Xiao Ze’s tone revealed no anger "I also know you married that fool because you couldn’t afford to raise our son, I don’t blame you."

Hearing such understanding words, Shen Xiu’s eyes instantly reddened; for two long years, she hadn’t heard such heartwarming words.

"Once we pick up our son, let’s have a nice family gathering."

Soon after, Shen Huan came out of school, and upon seeing the man, he was equally excited, ran over, and jumped into his arms, exclaiming joyfully, "Dad, you’re finally back! Xiao Huan missed you so much!"

Xiao Ze kissed his son’s cheeks firmly, "Dad missed our good son too."

"Heehee..." Shen Huan laughed happily, while Shen Xiu watched the father and son with affectionate eyes, and nearby people who saw such a happy family of three all showed smiles of blessing.

After the reunion, Shen Xiu held Xiao Ze’s arm and said, "Where are we going now?"

Xiao Ze held his son’s hand, turned to her and said, "I’ve reserved a private room at a restaurant, the food there is great, I’ll take you both to try it."

Having saved and skimped for two years without dining out even once, Shen Xiu couldn’t help but reminisce, indeed Xiao Ze was so much better, even though he didn’t have much money, he gave her the best, unlike Ye Qiu, whose stinginess was deadly, asking him for more money was like asking for his life.

In the private room, Xiao Ze ordered some of Shen Xiu’s favorite dishes, making Shen Xiu even happier.

"Sorry for the grievance these past two years." Xiao Ze poured her a glass of wine, "It’s because of my lack of ability, I couldn’t protect both of you."

"Don’t say that." Shen Xiu’s eyes were red, "If it weren’t for me back then, you wouldn’t have gotten imprisoned for assault."

Speaking of this, the coldness in Xiao Ze’s eyes couldn’t be hidden, "Since they dared to covet my wife, naturally, they should be prepared for their heads to be opened."

Even though he looked fierce, Shen Xiu wasn’t scared at all, instead, she felt extremely happy, all because of her.

"How did you find me?"

"I went back to my hometown, your parents said you were here, then asked some people and found out which school our son was attending."

"Did my parents trouble you?" Shen Xiu asked nervously. She knew how much her parents favored Ye Qiu and consistently looked down on Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze chuckled, holding Shen Xiu’s hand, "They’re your parents, no matter what, to find you, I can only endure it, not a big deal."

Though he spoke lightly, Shen Xiu’s eyes reddened slightly, he was indeed the best, yet her parents were blind, thinking Ye Qiu was reliable.

"And you? How are you doing?" Xiao Ze asked in return, a brief hint of hostility flashing in his eyes.

"Him?" Shen Xiu laughed coldly, then started complaining, "I thought marrying him would give me and our son a better life, who knew he’s the stingiest, apart from basic living expenses, he wouldn’t spend a dime, sometimes when our son wanted to eat some large shrimp, I had to hesitate repeatedly, he was simply a stubborn log."

"Does he mistreat you?" Xiao Ze clenched his fists.

"Not really, just overly stingy, plays good guy too well, rather give money to strangers than let my son and me use it, I’ll tell you a secret." Shen Xiu whispered.

"What secret?"

"I suspect Ye Qiu is impotent."

Xiao Ze’s eyes widened, "Really?"

"Why would I lie? We’ve been married for two years, although he seldom comes home, he’s never touched me, isn’t that impotence? So Xiao Ze, I didn’t let you down." Shen Xiu’s cheeks reddened, eyes gleaming.

Xiao Ze understood what she meant, any slight concern was swept away, feeling even more touched, "Then it’s really unfair to you, making you live by his standards, just an orphan, marrying him is his blessing, yet he dares treat you like this."

"It’s just as well, I’m lucky to have waited for you."

The two exchanged smiles, everything was understood without words.

Xiao Ze declared bossily, "You go back and tell him to divorce, I’m out now, no need for you and our son to depend on others."

"Not now."

Xiao Ze frowned, "Why?"

Shen Xiu cautiously glanced at the private room door, then said to him, "Ye Qiu’s research is yielding results, I heard if sold, it could fetch at least a hundred million, leaving him with tens of millions, you don’t have a stable job now, I haven’t worked for a long time, how can we raise our son without money?"

Xiao Ze’s eyes flashed with brilliance, "You want to get the money from him first before divorcing?"

"Exactly."

"Will he fall for it? Would he be foolish enough to give you all the money?" Xiao Ze expressed doubt.

"You don’t understand him, he’s excessively kind, never enjoys the money he earns himself, usually donating it."

"What do you plan to do?"

"Set up a fake charity to have him send the money there."

"Will that work?"

"Do you have any other ideas?" Shen Xiu raised an eyebrow questioning him.

Xiao Ze’s eyes, honed in prison, were more fierce than before, "Setting up a fake charity is cumbersome and easily discovered, I have two better ideas."

"What ideas?" Shen Xiu asked excitedly.

"Doesn’t he really like you? I’ll have friends stage a fake kidnapping, you think he’ll pay the ransom?"

"What if he calls the police?"

"Aren’t you by his side?"

"You want to fake kidnap our son?"

"Yes."
