Miss Cousin is Always Busy

Chapter 231.1

When Jun Zishu returned to the room, Tang Qianqiu had already finished showering.

“Have you concluded your talk?”

“Of course.”

Jun Zishu nodded. Then, she grabbed her nightwear and began to strip.

“Ah, help me with my zipper, Mom.”

Jun Zishu made her request very naturally. Then, after saying so, she turned around and faced her back to Tang Qianqiu.

Tang Qianqiu gulped nervously before answering with an “okay.”

Tang Qianqiu wasn’t sure what mood she was in as she helped Jun Zishu with her dress’s zipper. However, her hands paused when her fingers came into contact with the hook of Jun Zishu’s bra.

“Help me unhook it while you’re at it, Mom,” Jun Zishu said, her lips curling up slightly. Then, she continued, “Speaking of which, this is most likely the last night I will be calling you as such. Qiu Ziqian and I will no longer be husband and wife tomorrow, so our relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will also cease to exist.”

“Mhm.”

In reality, Tang Qianqiu didn’t hear what Jun Zishu had said. Currently, her mind was filled with thoughts surrounding Jun Zishu’s exposed back and Jun Zishu’s request to unhook her bra.

After Tang Qianqiu unhooked Jun Zishu’s bra, Jun Zishu took off her dress and bra, letting them fall to the ground. Then, she picked up the nightwear on the bed and put it on.

Tang Qianqiu didn’t know whether she should look away or continue looking at this situation. Amidst her daze, she subconsciously swept her gaze across Jun Zishu’s back and descended to Jun Zishu’s slim waist, the mesmerizing sight causing her heart to beat rapidly. Yet, the instigator of this predicament was seemingly still unaware of the kind of influence she had on her.

However, was Jun Zishu really unaware of Tang Qianqiu’s thoughts? How could that be possible? How could she not know what kind of personality her lover, who she had spent several lifetimes with, possessed?

Jun Zishu hid the smile on her face.

It wouldn’t be long now. Once she got rid of her current marriage, she could be with her lover boldly and openly.

“Mom, I’ll have to trouble you to find me a lawyer and draft a divorce agreement for me.”

“Did you discuss the division of assets with him?”

“No, but try to ask for as much as possible in the agreement.”

“Hm? The assets he has are insignificant in my eyes. I can give you everything I own if you want it,” Tang Qianqiu said.

However, Jun Zishu shook her head in response. Then, with a meaningful smile, she said, “Qiu Ziqian might not suspect anything since he doesn’t have a very high EQ, but Bai Yuwan is a person with many doubts. If I withdraw without any follow-up moves, she will definitely suspect that something is up. On the other hand, the more assets I demand, the more assured she will feel. She will think that I decided to leave with some money after realizing that I am no match for her.”

After saying so, Jun Zishu sat on the bed next to Tang Qianqiu. Then, after lowering the air conditioner’s temperature setting with the remote controller, she continued, “Not to mention, although the company he is managing belongs to you, he has accumulated a lot of wealth for himself throughout these years. After being married to him for two years, it’s not excessive to ask for some compensation, so be sure to ask for as much as possible, Mom. Even if we don’t have a use for the money, we can use it for travel or charity.”

“Okay.”

“By the way, will you still hand the family business to him, Mom?”

“It depends on your will,” Tang Qianqiu frankly said.

In reality, Tang Qianqiu had already started considering finding a new successor to nurture. However, she was also willing to do whatever Jun Zishu wanted.

“Aren’t you surprised?” Tang Qianqiu asked when she saw the calm look on Jun Zishu’s face. She had just said such ambiguous words, yet Jun Zishu had not shown any reaction.

“Why should I be surprised? I know you treat me the best, Mom,” Jun Zishu said, smiling as she leaned into Tang Qianqiu’s body. Then, she whispered into Tang Qianqiu’s ear, “You feel the same way as I do, right, Mom?”

Tang Qianqiu was immediately stunned, and she blinked her eyes with a silly look on her face.

Originally, Jun Zishu did not plan to open up so soon. At the very least, she felt that she should have waited until tomorrow to do so. However, the way Tang Qianqiu declared that she would give her everything she had so long as she asked for it was simply too cute and irresistible.

Aside from feeling amused, Jun Zishu also felt touched by Tang Qianqiu’s gesture. After all, unlike herself, this person didn’t have any memories of their past. Yet, this person had kept approaching her time and again, never giving up regardless of whether she responded to her approach.

“The moment I saw you, Mom, I felt this place beating very quickly,” Jun Zishu said. Then, she sat facing Tang Qianqiu, grabbed Tang Qianqiu’s hand, and put it on her chest.

Apart from Jun Zishu’s soft and warm flesh, Tang Qianqiu could also feel Jun Zishu’s rapidly beating heart through her hand.

Tang Qianqiu was so excited that even her body had started quivering slightly. She also desperately fought back the urge to fondle and squeeze the lump of flesh in her palm.

Meanwhile, similar to Jun Zishu’s experience, Tang Qianqiu also felt her heart beating rapidly when she laid eyes on Jun Zishu in the hospital. Back then, her heart had seemingly woken up from its long hibernation as it began beating at an unprecedented pace. At the same time, her heart had also loudly told her that this person was it. This was the person she was destined to be with. There was no mistaking it.

“Have you touched enough, Mom?” Jun Zishu asked as she looked at the hand placed on her chest. How long was this person planning on touching her breast?

However, Tang Qianqiu ignored Jun Zishu’s question. Instead, she put on a serious expression and asked, “Are you saying you like me?”

“What about you? Do you like me?” Jun Zishu asked with a smile.

“I love you,” Tang Qianqiu declared as she looked at Jun Zishu’s beautiful visage. The feelings she held for Jun Zishu were far more than just feelings of fondness.

“I love you, too.”

When it came to matters of love, nothing could be better than having one’s love reciprocated.

Jun Zishu’s reply had seemingly flipped a switch inside Tang Qianqiu. Immediately, all of the reservations she had previously disappeared as she pushed Jun Zishu onto the bed.

“You…”

Jun Zishu let out a cry and glared at Tang Qianqiu. She should’ve known better than to think that this person could control herself. They had just confessed their feelings to each other, yet this person was already planning on taking their relationship to the bed.

“Not now. Let’s at least wait until tomorrow. We have plenty of time ahead of us, anyway,” Jun Zishu said as she patted Tang Qianqiu’s misbehaving hand that had already found its way under her clothes. She did not wish to progress their relationship to a physical level yet, not before she finalized her divorce with Qiu Ziqian, at the very least.

While Qiu Ziqian might be a scumbag, he had only betrayed Jian Qing mentally. His relationship with Bai Yuwan had yet to develop to a physical level. So, there was no way Jun Zishu could stoop to a lower level than Qiu Ziqian.

Jun Zishu wasn’t a person greedy for physical pleasure, either. Instead, she emphasized the sense of ceremony when engaging in sex. Although Tang Qianqiu was her lover, it still wasn’t appropriate to engage in a physical affair. Not to mention, they only had to endure for one night.

Tang Qianqiu understood Jun Zishu’s thoughts. So, albeit reluctantly, she retracted her hand from under Jun Zishu’s clothes and did not make any further attempts at touching Jun Zishu…was what she would like to say. However, she still couldn’t help herself from holding Jun Zishu’s hand and shower Jun Zishu’s face with kisses.

…

Early morning the next day, Jun Zishu placed the divorce papers in front of Qiu Ziqian.

“Are you that eager to get a divorce?” Qiu Ziqian asked with a raised eyebrow.

Unfortunately, Qiu Ziqian had guessed incorrectly. Jun Zishu wasn’t the person eager for the divorce to happen. Instead, it was Tang Qianqiu.

Tang Qianqiu had grown so excited last night that she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what. In the end, desperation got the best of her, and she woke up her lawyer in the middle of the night and told him that she wanted a set of divorce papers prepared for her by morning, to which the lawyer delivered after working overnight.

When Jun Zishu handed the divorce papers to Qiu Ziqian, Tang Qianqiu sat at the nearby dining table with her head lowered as she ate her breakfast. Although it looked like she wasn’t interested in what was taking place in the living room, her ears were perked up, and she was listening to every word of their conversation.

“I’ve already written my demands inside. If you find any of the demands are unreasonable, we can negotiate on it,” Jun Zishu said, ignoring Qiu Ziqian’s question.

When Qiu Ziqian picked up the documents and looked through them, he furrowed his brows and said, “What an exorbitant demand you have there.”

“These are all insignificant things to you. Don’t tell me you can’t bear to part with them?”

Jun Zishu’s demands were all within Qiu Ziqian’s bottom line. Of course, she also made sure to ask for as much as possible. It was a minor form of revenge for the two years the original owner had wasted on Qiu Ziqian.

In the end, Qiu Ziqian had still chosen to sign the divorce papers. This was because he recalled the words Bai Yuwan had said to him across the phone last night.

—If she wants money, just give it to her so long as it’s not an excessive amount.

When Qiu Ziqian placed his signature on the papers, all three people in the vicinity sighed in relief. In Qiu Ziqian’s case, he inwardly sighed a second time when he looked toward Tang Qianqiu and saw that his mother didn’t seem to care about the divorce.

Afterward, Jun Zishu and Qiu Ziqian made their way to the Civil Affairs Bureau and officialized their divorce.

Jun Zishu had long since thrown the ring on her finger away. After retrieving some of her personal belongings from Qiu Ziqian’s home, she and Tang Qianqiu headed for the new home Tang Qianqiu had prepared.

Thus, their new life together officially began.

Sometime later, Tang Qianqiu had managed to find a man who looked 70% similar to Chen Ge. Then, after negotiating the conditions with him, they began training him to become Chen Ge.

However, instead of creating a carbon copy of Chen Ge, Jun Zishu had a different “Chen Ge” in mind.

The person the young Bai Yuwan had fallen madly in love with was naturally the young Chen Ge. However, after “leveling up,” Bai Yuwan had never seen Chen Ge again, so she naturally didn’t know what had become of him. So, Jun Zishu’s plan was to gift Bai Yuwan a perfect “Chen Ge.”

Specifically, a mature “Chen Ge” who wouldn’t hurt Bai Yuwan.

Jun Zishu’s intention wasn’t to let Bai Yuwan fall in love with “Chen Ge.” It was fine so long as “Chen Ge” could become a sufficient distraction.

TL Notes:

Fyi, the Tenxin mentioned in Chapter 227.1 is only one of the businesses under the Tang family. It isn’t the entire family business.
