Chapter 1580: Chapter 1042: Shameless
Happy Lantern Festival to everyone~
--------------------
Some matters are better handled by the individuals involved than by outsiders meddling, so even though just looking at Fang Tao makes her want to vomit, Zhou Xiangping still notified Zhou Nanping.
"He actually calls himself a brother-in-law?" Zhou Nanping, sitting on the sofa chatting with Old Madam Zhou, frowned speechlessly. "How can he be so shameless? He used to feel that calling him brother-in-law was too insulting."
"Xiao Nan, go and make things clear to him..." Old Madam Zhou affectionately looked at this granddaughter regained after being lost. "I guess that girl named Sang Mei rejected him."
"Almost certainly, otherwise why would he come to us?" Zhou Nanping snorted coldly. "Before, he said he didn’t even want to look at me twice. In the last few months before the divorce, he avoided me like the plague at home. Now he shamelessly claims to be my brother-in-law, hehe..."
"Xiao Nan, we could just send him away, but he probably won’t give up that easily. It’s better if you handle your own matters personally." Zhou Xiangping looked seriously at Zhou Nanping. "Besides, it will help you move on quicker."
"Alright, I’ll go." Zhou Nanping got up and smiled at Old Madam Zhou. "Grandma, rest assured, I’m no longer the Zhou Nanping who used to let him bully me. I definitely won’t be at a disadvantage."
"Go ahead, Grandma trusts you." Such matters are best not interfered with by elders, Old Madam Zhou waved her hand and stayed seated.
Wang Lei, holding Xiao Kang, walked over and smiled at the troubled-looking Zhou Xiangping: "Alright, you can go out too. I’ll keep Grandma company, and once everything in the kitchen is done, Auntie Zhao will come over. What are you worried about?"
"Thanks, Third Aunt..." Zhou Xiangping reached out to poke Xiao Kang’s chubby cheek and quickly ran out. Old Madam Zhou helplessly laughed. "She’s already a mother but doesn’t have a trace of maturity."
"Mom, you actually love Xiao Si’s personality, yet you still say this..." Having been part of the Zhou family for over a year, Wang Lei spoke less reservedly than before.
"Why expose me?" Old Madam Zhou joyfully took her grandson from her daughter-in-law’s arms, kissed the little guy’s cheek lightly, "Xiao Kang, your mom is too naughty, isn’t she?"
The little guy thought Old Madam Zhou was teasing him, grinned toothlessly with joy, and Liang Xiaohong watched this scene from the kitchen, her eyes full of envy. Given her age, she wouldn’t foolishly wish to have another child; she hoped her son and daughter would soon settle down in life. But judging by the current situation, who knows when her wish will come true.
As Zhou Nanping stepped outside, she stared coldly at Fang Tao: "We seem to have no connections anymore, why are you still coming to our house? Fang Tao, my sister and sister-in-law are good-tempered and haven’t kicked you out, but that doesn’t mean everyone still sees you as a relative. If this happens again, don’t blame me for being rude!"
"Xiao Nan, you started talking angrily again, didn’t you?" Fang Tao gave his ex-wife a flattering smile. "If you count it, we have nearly seven years of relationship foundation, how could there really be no ties just because we’re divorced?
I was just momentarily confused, but now, I truly regret my actions terribly. You tell me, how did I get possessed, seeing everything about you as unpleasant?
People are strange like this, when we truly separated and I couldn’t see you, I realized how important you are to me. I haven’t slept well these days, staying up all night with memories of us together.
I once thought we had hit the dull phase with no feelings, even thought I liked someone else, but now I understand, I just didn’t figure out my feelings.
Xiao Nan, I’m begging you to forgive me and give me another chance. I assure you, I’ll treat you well in the future, and definitely won’t hope for any benefits from the Zhou family.
What I want is a wife who loves me sincerely, a wife willing to live wholeheartedly with me. Xiao Nan, I truly know I was wrong. Let’s not be mad at each other, okay?"
Listening to this string of confessions, Chuxia and the others sitting nearby almost wanted to vomit. Lying with eyes wide open to this extent is truly shameless to the extreme. But as outsiders, they definitely wouldn’t intervene.
Zhou Nanping stared hard at Fang Tao for a while, a smile slowly appearing at her lips, "What you said, is it true?"
