The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 316

Lu Zheng didn't continue arguing with her, holding her bag and reminding her, "Alright, I'm going back now."

"Pay attention and call me immediately if anything happens. Don't be so carefree."

Huo Mei Shu felt speechless in her heart. Who was the one being carefree?

But she didn't dare to say that, and quickly sent Lu Zheng downstairs with a well-behaved smile.

Watching Lu Zheng get into the car and leave, Huo Mei Shu finally let out a sigh of relief.

She touched her stomach and found a nearby restaurant to have a meal.

Lu Zheng sat in the car feeling a bit gloomy.

Although her mother-in-law had never treated her harshly, she didn't leave her any face in front of her children.

First, it was about the housekeeper, and now even her words were criticized by her mother-in-law.

If it weren't for her husband's early passing, her life would have been smooth sailing.

She was inherently a traditional woman.

Since her husband's death, her family had subtly hinted at her to find someone else.

And the Huo family agreed as well.

But when she thought of her deceased husband and their three children...

She couldn't let go, always thinking of waiting a little longer until the children grew up a bit more. fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖

But when is there ever a time when raising children is worry-free?

She had wasted so much time, and she was already of a certain age.

She had even less desire to remarry.

She just wanted her children to get married and settle down, to have grandchildren as soon as possible. That would be enough for her.

But even this small wish seemed impossible for her to fulfill.

And... she had to endure the suppression from her mother-in-law.

She felt extremely aggrieved, so she instructed the taxi to turn towards the upscale bar where she often went with her sisters.

As a regular customer and because this bar was not an ordinary one, more like an elegant and relaxing place, Lu Zheng's private booth was quiet.

With soothing music and the fragrance of alcohol in the air.

Unconsciously, Lu Zheng had already downed two glasses and was starting to feel a little dizzy.

Under normal circumstances, she would never go out alone and drink so much.

But today was different, her mood was at its lowest point.

In this household, she was like an unnecessary person, someone completely redundant.

This feeling made her very uncomfortable.

Incredibly uncomfortable.

Her children didn't stand up for her, and she had her mother-in-law above her.

In this household, no one helped her.

She was alone too, she could feel sadness, frustration, and loneliness.

But she didn't dare to disturb her children's lives.

She thought that silently showing a little care, as long as they accepted it, she would be satisfied.

But today, her mother-in-law's words were like saying that Lu Zheng was an unreasonable, brainless shrew.

Lu Zheng felt incredibly sad, with no place to vent her frustration.

"Zheng Zheng? Is it really you?"

She was drinking alone in her own misery when suddenly a joyful male voice sounded from above her head.

Lu Zheng looked up in confusion at the man in front of her. He appeared to be in his fifties, with a few gray hairs at his temples, but he was well-groomed and elegant.

"Yes, it's me, Zhong Jun! Yin Zhongjun, our high school classmate. Do you remember?" Yin Zhongjun had a smile on his face, his eyes filled with undisguised joy.

Lu Zheng looked at the man in front of her with a puzzled expression, and after a few seconds, she finally remembered!

Suddenly, she realized, whether it was because of the alcohol or memories from her youth, her cheeks turned slightly red.

"Long time no see."

She said with a faint smile.

She never expected that after so many years, they would still meet again.

"Do you mind if I sit down?"

Yin Zhongjun asked politely.

Without hesitation, Lu Zheng nodded.

Her children were unwilling to talk to her, but it was always possible to chat with an old classmate, right?
