CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce

As she was thinking, she walked to the courtyard gate to open it. When she saw the person standing outside, a hint of surprise appeared at the bottom of her eyes.

"Cousin’s wife."

Xue Yishan waved enthusiastically at her from outside.

Xia Yumo’s eyebrows knitted imperceptibly, and she walked up to open the gate.

"How come you’re here?"

Xue Yishan walked in, acting as if she and Xia Yumo were good friends, and reached out to hold Xia Yumo’s arm. "I came to hang out with you, don’t you remember? I said I would visit you when I had time."

Xia Yumo withdrew her arm from Xue Yishan’s hand, not showing much enthusiasm.

"Oh."

She casually responded, not intending to engage with her further. She sat down under the sun umbrella where she had been lying earlier, slowly sipping her coffee. She didn’t seem interested in making tea or coffee for Xue Yishan either.

Xue Yishan didn’t seem to notice Xia Yumo’s coldness, and sat down beside her, saying:

"Cousin’s wife, your coffee smells so good, what brand is it? I want to buy some too."

She tried to get closer to Xia Yumo but heard her say:

"I don’t know, Junhang bought it."

Xue Yishan tried to make small talk with Xia Yumo for a while, but Xia Yumo never showed any inclination to engage in conversation.

Gradually, Xue Yishan grew somewhat discouraged, and her originally enthusiastic smile gradually stiffened.

"Right, cousin’s wife, your birthday is in a few days, what has cousin told you about his birthday plans for you?"

She probed Xia Yumo with her questioning tone, then continued:

"This is your first birthday after your marriage with my cousin, so he should really make it special for you."

"Why don’t we invite your parents over and celebrate your birthday together, it’s more lively when the whole family is together."

Xia Yumo quietly sipped her coffee, listening to the obvious probing in Xue Yishan’s words. The corner of her mouth, hidden under the cup’s rim, slowly curved up.

This Xue Yishan was really interesting.

Everyone outside the Qi family knew that they were sending out invitations for a birthday banquet for the Qi Family’s Young Miss. Would Xue Yishan not know that Xia Yumo was the Qi Family’s Young Miss?

Even if Xue Yishan didn’t know that, what did her birthday have to do with a cousin she had never associated with before?

Moreover, even if, as she said, the whole family should be together for a birthday party, the so-called "family" would never include her Xue family.

The only "Xue family members" who could be considered part of the family were her so-called mother-in-law, Xue Lan.

And what was funny about Xue Yishan was that she had excluded Xue Lan, who was part of the Gu family, and included her own family for Xia Yumo’s birthday celebration.

Xia Yumo didn’t know when she had become so close to Xue Yishan.

After putting down the coffee cup, Xia Yumo looked at Xue Yishan and said:

"No need, my parents are organizing a birthday banquet for me. I want to spend my birthday with them."

As soon as she said that, Xue Yishan’s eyes brightened noticeably.

"I almost forgot about that, I heard that Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi are going to hold a birthday banquet for you."

She squatted down next to Xia Yumo, looking at her with undisguised envy and anticipation in her eyes.

"Cousin’s wife, I’m glad that you became my cousin’s wife and joined our family. I want to celebrate your birthday this year too, but unfortunately..."

Speaking of this, she looked somewhat disappointed and lowered her eyes.
