Chapter 1918: Not Informing Us of Such a Big Matter?
He merely told his parents, “If you still recognize me as your son and want my money, then don’t interfere in my business. The divorce must go through regardless. The only difference is if I still care about you.”
Three simple sentences was enough to make them quieten down.
Lu Man could guess Wang Juhuai’s parents’ attitude based on Xia Qingwei’s words.
She smiled, holding Xia Qingwei’s hand. “Mom, don’t think about these things. You’re still in confinement, so maintaining a good mood is of utmost importance. Leave everything to Dad. At worst, there’s still me.”
“Right.” Xia Qingwei nodded.
Meanwhile, at the airport.
Wang Juhuai received Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing.
Wang Juhuai might be middle-aged, but Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing both still looked energetic.
They walked out looking like they’re in their 50s or 60s; they did a good job maintaining their looks.
“Dad, Mom,” Wang Juhuai called lacklusterly.
Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing’s faces grew dark.
They knew because of the Lin Jinshu incident, the son they’re proudest of had grown distant from them.
But it shouldn’t be to this degree! Being so indifferent to seeing them.
Lu Wenqing reckoned Xia Qingwei might have spoken badly about them to Wang Juhuai to brainwash him into being cool with them!
Xia Qingwei was young then and couldn’t see things clearly, but she’d have understood things perfectly now, so she must have badmouthed them to Wang Juhuai.
Who knew what potion Xia Qingwei gave to Wang Juhuai? He even kept mum about his marriage from them!
Xia Qingwei knew they didn’t like her, that’s why!
They boarded the car, the parents sitting at the back.
Wang Juhuai brought no chauffeur.
He understood his parents too well. They probably won’t have anything good to say during the trip.
He didn’t wish to air his dirty linen to outsiders.
Indeed, as Wang Juhuai drove, Wang Taihong said, “Marriage’s such a big thing, so why didn’t you tell us?”
Wang Juhuai was lukewarm. “You both were travelling overseas. You couldn’t come over even if I told you.”
They married when Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing were in Africa, when they had bad signals at their campsite in the great wilderness.
Moreover, local news rarely traveled to Africa.
Plus, the couple went north after Africa to southern Europe.
They had nothing to worry about after retirement, so they kept travelling, merely resting at home for short intervals before continuing their journey to explore the world in every detail.
It was perhaps also to hide from Lin Jinshu.
Lin Jinshu never gave up ever since the divorce.
She couldn’t get close to Wang Juhuai, so she’d shifted her target to his parents.
But Wang Taihong and Lu Wenqing were no fools either. Knowing their influence over their son was long gone and they couldn’t help Lin Jinshu in any way, they understood they couldn’t accept benefits from Lin Jinshu for nothing.
So they traveled the world to avoid Lin Jinshu.
However, accepting Wang Juhuai’s irrevocable separation from Lin Jinshu did not mean accepting Xia Qingwei.
Especially when Xia Qingwei was someone they disapproved of previously. Now that Wang Juhuai’s with her again, did that mean they lacked foresight or that he disregarded his parents for a woman?
