Chapter 785: Chapter 785: That Woman Finally Took the Bait
Mother Lin didn’t indulge her, “Don’t push all the responsibility onto me. Wasn’t it you who were greedy, always jealous of that girl Chuxia since you were little? It’s your own lack of capability. Don’t blame your mother…”
As the two pushed and shoved each other in the courtyard, each grabbing a handful of the other’s hair, Lin Jiadong stepped in to separate them.
“Mom, if Big Sister got divorced and has nowhere to go, just let her come back. What’s so shameful about that? It’s doing something wrong that’s shameful.”
Mother Lin wanted to say more but closed her mouth when she saw her son’s dark eyes.
Her son was capable, destined to be a university student, and university students certainly know a lot. Whatever her son said was right.
“This time, it’s for the sake of your brother, but I’m telling you, if you don’t want to go back to the Li Family, fine, I’ll find a matchmaker for you soon. Our family can’t keep a spinster of such age.”
……………
The autumn wind blew away the summer heat, and even the blue sky and white clouds seemed higher.
Lin Chuxia, however, didn’t feel the high spirits of autumn.
She looked at Gu Peng in front of her with a somewhat complicated gaze, “Where have you been these past few days? Why do you look so busy?”
Gu Peng used to be busy like this, as long as he did the work she arranged for him well, Lin Chuxia didn’t mind what he did on his own.
But after confirming that Gu Peng had also been reborn, she always felt he was being a bit secretive.
With his past life’s experience, the work she gave him should be child’s play, no need to be so busy from dawn to dusk, not even seeing a shadow.
She thought he was her best friend from a past life, coming back to her side in this life.
They were clearly in a very good friendship.
Yet, unexpectedly, no matter if it was the past life or this life, he perhaps always had a motive being around her.
Gu Peng placed the file in his hand on the desk in front of him, “What else can I do? The medical base matter is quite troublesome, been communicating with them for a long time, still need some paperwork, been running around for this matter these days.”
His eyes met Lin Chuxia’s without dodging, but his mind was on another matter.
After casting the net for so long, that woman Lin Jiayi finally took the bait.
As he expected, that woman was indeed extremely selfish.
Li Guangyuan didn’t want her anymore, drove her out of the Li Family, and with nowhere to go, Lin Jiayi returned to her maiden home.
How could a family like the Lin Family tolerate a divorced woman living in her maiden home for long?
As expected, after sending Lin Jiadong away, Old Lady Lin began arranging a marriage for Lin Jiayi.
What kind of family can Lin Jiayi, a divorced secondhand woman, find? Isn’t he still here?
The matchmaker found were either old men in their fifties or sixties who had lost their wives or bachelors in their forties or fifties with disabilities.
Lin Jiayi was not willing, and Old Lady Lin was putting all kinds of pressure, just short of tying her up to be sent away.
It’s really ironic to say, initially, Lin Chuxia was betrothed to Li Guangyuan, asking for a 300 yuan dowry from the Li Family, akin to selling a daughter.
When her own daughter Lin Jiayi got married, they only asked for an 80 yuan dowry.
Thought she had some conscience for her own daughter, but seeing now, some people are born without a conscience.
Lin Jiayi probably saw through her mother long ago, in the end, taking the family’s money and secretly running away.
She didn’t run far, Lin Jiayi returned to Ancheng County with the money, renting a small room to settle down, even planning to find a job.
Gu Peng wouldn’t let her have such a comfortable life.
Dawdling for a few days and still didn’t find a job, but she ran into a man.
Qiao Lan and the son of Director Kang of the textile factory, Kang Mingyang.

Kang Mingyang had been working out of town, recently back for a visit.
Once, when Lin Jiayi impersonated Lin Chuxia and was mistakenly brought by Zhuang Jingshu, she had been to Qiao Lan’s house.
At that time, she met Qiao Lan’s son, Kang Mingyang.
Just that once, Lin Jiayi was smitten with the tall, handsome, and polite Kang Mingyang, knowing he was still single, even wanting Zhuang Jingshu to match the two of them.
But before she persuaded Zhuang Jingshu, the truth was revealed, and her impersonating Lin Chuxia was exposed.
This time, seeing Kang Mingyang, Lin Jiayi couldn’t help but greet him, discovering Kang Mingyang didn’t know about Zhuang Jingshu recognizing the wrong daughter, still treating her as Zhuang Jingshu’s daughter, Lin Jiayi’s mind started plotting.
Using the opportunity to invite him for a meal, she planned to drug him and then forcefully bind Kang Mingyang to her.
She knew, with a family like the Kang Family, once the child had a relationship with her, he’d definitely take responsibility for her.
And Kang Mingyang, considering the face of both families, was undefended against Lin Jiayi.
As things developed toward Lin Jiayi’s imagined direction, how could Mr. Gu let her succeed?
Just when Lin Jiayi drove Kang Mingyang away and drugged his drink, Gu Peng’s people used the same means to silently swap the drinks.
The result was Lin Jiayi suffering the consequences of her own actions.
According to his subordinates, Lin Jiayi had used a significant amount, intended for animal breeding.
Lin Jiayi, tormented by the drug, actually sought a man who used to sell vegetables with them, the same one who always hinted at her openly and secretly.
That man was a scoundrel, making a living selling vegetables, while also drinking, gambling, and chasing women, known to Ma.
Now it turned well, Ma even brought Li Guangyuan over.
Caught the two in bed, hot and heavy, completely oblivious to being watched.
Although Li Guangyuan had divorced Lin Jiayi, verbally telling her to get lost.
Seeing his former wife in bed with another man, so passionately.
The visual impact felt like he was being cuckolded.
Surrounded by familiar faces from the market, the way they looked at him changed.
Li Guangyuan, furious, jumped up to fight the two.
Gu Peng specially went to watch the scene, which was extremely chaotic, with Li Guangyuan and Lin Jiayi like two mad dogs tearing each other apart, but he didn’t feel much satisfaction in revenge at that moment.
In Gu Peng’s view, this was far from enough.
If it wasn’t for Lin Jiayi’s switch in marriage, even if his timing was off, many things were unchangeable, at most, Lin Chuxia would marry Li Guangyuan again and repeat the same path.
After a lifetime, he believed Lin Chuxia’s life in this lifetime wouldn’t be too hard.
And in the past life, Lin Chuxia was already disappointed in Li Guangyuan, their marriage was only in name, not reality.
In this life, even if Lin Chuxia married Li Guangyuan, it would still be largely nominal.
Even if he returned a few years later, everything would still be under his control.
Yet, Lin Jiayi also returned, meddling in between.
The two exchanged marriages, Lin Chuxia married Qin Yang, lived in harmony, and had children together.
Everything reached an irreversible point.
What Lin Jiayi made him pay was all wasted, he could not let Lin Jiayi live well.
