Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was easy to get a divorce now. One only needed to sign on the papers to get a divorce. It was even easier to get a breakup. The two of them could end a relationship and never to see each other again.

After getting to know Zhou Zheng, Qiao Zijin was certain of one thing.

Because of Qiao Nan, the Zhai family disliked the fact that she was their relative. However, she was lucky that she was Qiao Nan’s sister. Qiao Nan could never be rid of her in this life.

Unless she had her own means and ways, the Zhai family would definitely not recommend other families who were better than the Zhou family to her. Similarly, as long as she was able to accept families like the Zhou family, if she and Zhou Zheng broke up, the Zhai family was willing to recommend a few other families that had a similar background as the Zhou family.

Since Qiao Zijin was certain of this, she was fearless in front of Zhou Zheng. “After breaking up with each other, let’s not meet or contact each other so that it will not be awkward for both of us. I want to have a home, a home that belongs to me. After we break up, if you see me with my new boyfriend, pretend not to know me.”

Zhou Zheng dated her as he was after the benefits that the Zhai family gave him. She did not shun him for not being sincere toward her. Instead, he should be ashamed of himself for being pretentious in front of her. The Zhai family helped him convert from a contract worker to a permanent worker all because of her.

With that, Qiao Zijin took out her cell phone and deleted Zhou Zheng’s phone number. She also told Zhou Zheng to delete her phone number. After deleting his phone number, Qiao Zijin turned to walk away without the slightest hesitation.

She knew that Zhou Zheng minded that she was not as beautiful as his ex-girlfriend. But how dared he do that! She did not even mind that his family background, looks, and intelligence were not as good as Chen Jun.

Seeing that Qiao Zijin became unyielding, Zhou Zheng panicked. Although he minded that she was not as beautiful, he did not dare to break up with her.

Qiao Zijin had barely left and Zhou Zheng hurried forward to stop her. He grabbed her hand and begged her to appease her anger. Qiao Zijin was being very direct and straightforward. “In the past, I was afraid that I would hurt your pride and self-esteem. Right now, I think I am being too softhearted with you. I have been thinking too much. Your ex-girlfriend only has one advantage over me, and that is she is prettier than me. Let me tell you about my ex-boyfriend. He is so much better than you. You should know who Chen Jun is. His father used to be a deputy police commissioner in the city and he is doing just as well now. Chen Jun is handsome, highly educated, and his father is very capable. If I wasn’t foolish in the past and could not sort out my thoughts, you might not be the person who stands next to me discussing marriage plans with me today.”

Qiao Zijin was really full of regrets now.

She finally managed to do what Chen Jun requested her to do, but it was a pity he had broken up with her and she had no idea where he was now or whether he had another girlfriend now. Since the breakup, they had not seen each other at all.

“Since you feel that your ex-girlfriend is better, fine, let’s have an easy way out. We have not been together for a long time. Even if your girlfriend has another man after breaking up with you, you can still get her back. By then, you should bring more money with you, and I am sure you will win her affection. As for me, since I am smarter than before, I might have a chance of getting back together with Chen Jun.”

Qiao Zijin sounded very serious when she said she was getting back with Chen Jun.

Previously, she did not harbor such intentions. After being agitated by Zhou Zheng, she felt that it was foolish of her to let go of Chen Jun, while she shortchanged herself to be with Zhou Zheng. He benefited from the relationship but he kept giving her the cold shoulder.

Was it worthwhile?

Seeing that Qiao Zijin was emboldened and serious about breaking up, Zhou Zheng had no choice but to beg for mercy. “I was wrong, okay? I was merely making a comment. I didn’t mean anything. Why did you flare up? We’re already discussing getting married. Why did you mention a breakup? Please don’t be angry. Let’s shop for clothes, shall we?”

“Please don’t mind. I don’t want you to feel that you are being shortchanged.” Qiao Zijin was merely throwing tantrums. Now that Zhou Zheng gave in, she was not as angry. “My looks are ordinary. Won’t you find it displeasing to see me every day? You can look for a beautiful woman, while I look for a handsome guy. Won’t that be great?”

“Nonsense. You don’t look ordinary at all. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You are beautiful.” If he put his mind to it, Zhou Zheng, who had been in a relationship, was better at coaxing ladies than Chen Jun.

Although the two of them had a few small quarrels, they still agreed to hold the wedding this October.

Now that he brought up this topic, Zhou Zheng felt uncertain. “Mom, are you sure it will be good for our family if I marry Qiao Zijin?”

Mother Zhou knew what her son was thinking about. “Isn’t it good? If so, you will still be a contract worker. Of course, it’s okay if you feel that it’s alright to be a contract worker. You can quit your job. It is difficult to get a permanent job in the government sector. It’s normal that we all want to lead better lives. If you are happy with a contract job, I won’t stop you. You can do anything as long as you are happy.”

Zhou Zheng was at a loss for words at what his mother said. Contract workers had a much lower pay than permanent workers. They did not have the same benefits as well. Zhou Qing knew how it felt to be converted to a permanent worker. He had no wish to work as a contract worker anymore.

“Speechless? Since you know that it’s good to have a permanent job, why did you ask me whether it will be good for our family if you marry Qiao Zijin? Qiao Zijin is foolish in how she deals with her younger sister, but she is smart in other aspects. You should have known whether she is a pushover or not. If you shun her, she may not be willing to shortchange herself to be with you. No matter what thoughts or opinions you have in mind, you should make a decision as soon as possible. You will need to send the wedding invitation in another half a month. It will be embarrassing if you back out by then.”

Her son understood the rationale, but it was human nature to have insatiable desires.

Mother Zhou did not bother to persuade her son. She knew that the more she persuaded him, the more he would go against her. If he did not feel like marrying Qiao Zijin, there was no way that she could force him. It was unnecessary to do that.

“Zhou Zheng, you are my son. I will always stand on your side. The Zhai family is not so small-minded. Even if things don’t work out between Qiao Zijin and you, your job will not be affected. Of course, if you have any plans for your future, you will have to rely on your own efforts to achieve them. As for our family business, it will be the way it used to be after the two of you break up. We have been leading a fairly good life back then. If the two of you break up, it will not be a problem. Therefore, it’s okay if you want a breakup.”

“Mom, do you really allow me to break up with her?”

Mother Zhou did not bother to persuade her son to stay with his girlfriend. She told him seriously that it would not have a drastic impact on the Zhou family if he broke up with his girlfriend. At most, it would be more difficult for them to make any improvements and Zhou Zheng might have to put in extra effort to get what he wanted.
