Chapter 403 It's a piece of cake to control him.
"Ha, I know perfectly well that you're still thinking about her. You've never forgotten her for a single day. You're always looking for something better than what you have. You only want a divorce because of Lin Yuyao. Just you wait, I'll tell the truth during the mediation. I won't let myself suffer in vain."
She was wronged?
"you dare."
"See if I dare."
"you……"
Even if she did that, what could he do?
He could only rage in vain.
He's already like this, so he's fearless since he's got plenty of lice to bite him.
But Yu Yao... no, he couldn't let Yu Yao's reputation be damaged.
Lin Yuyao and Fu Huaiyi were getting ready for bed when there was a knock on the door.
The two looked confused.
"Who could it be so late at night?"
"Could it be someone checking the water meter?"
Lin Yuyao nudged him, "How could that be? Have you ever seen anyone come to check the water meter at this time?"
Fu Huaiyi put on his clothes. "I'll go ask."
Lin Yuyao stayed huddled in the blankets and didn't go out.
It's already December, and the weather is so cold that it takes a lot of courage for anyone to leave their warm bed in the middle of the night.
Fu Huaiyi opened the door, never expecting it to be Lu Jiangting.
He frowned, shoved him out, and slammed the door shut behind him.
What are you doing here in the middle of the night?
"I'm here to see Yuyao."
Fu Huaiyi's lips twitched. "I think you've come here to die."
"No, I really came to see Yuyao. Fang Qing has gone mad; she insists on pinning the blame for our divorce on Yuyao. I'm worried it will damage her reputation, so..."
Fu Huaiyi cracked his knuckles as he pinched them. "So you came over in the middle of the night just to confirm her guilt?"
Lu Jiangting panicked and hurriedly explained, "No, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to remind her that Fang Qing will probably be causing her a lot of trouble lately to solidify this charge. She might even deliberately provoke Yu Yao. If Yu Yao gets into a physical altercation with Fang Qing and things escalate, it might..."
"Get out." I get angry just hearing him speak.
"Yuyao is incredibly unlucky to have met the two of you. You're both having a hard time and you want to drag her down with you. Are you afraid she'll have a good life?"
"No, I know I was wrong now. It was Fang Qing who instigated things between Yuyao and me. I'm sorry to her. Now I only hope she's doing well."
"Come on, huh? Fang Qing is the one who instigated it. It's because you're a pile of shit that Fang Qing can make you stink. If you weren't smelly to begin with, no matter how much she tries to pick at you, it won't make a difference."
Although Fu Huaiyi's words were crude, they were the truth.
Lu Jiangting looked dejected and left without saying a word.
As soon as he went downstairs, he ran into Fang Qing.
Fang Qing looked at him with red eyes and asked, "Jiang Ting, what are you doing here?"
Lu Jiangting's face darkened. "You followed me in the middle of the night?"
"Why would I follow you? What have you done to offend me that you're afraid I'll follow you? Lu Jiangting, let me tell you, we're not divorced yet. If you want to rekindle your old flame, you should at least wait until after the divorce. There are only a few days left, and you can't wait that long?"
Her voice was very loud, and the quiet of the night amplified it, making it clearly audible to residents on lower floors.
Fang Qing kept shouting and arguing, and even Lin Yuyao and Fu Huaiyi, who lived on the fifth floor, could hear her.
Lin Yuyao was speechless. "So they really came for me?"
Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath. "Ignore them. The neighbors aren't stupid. Let them cause trouble. Once one of them does something stupid, they'll stop."
Fang Qing kept yelling, so Lu Jiangting could only hold her tightly, take off his gloves and stuff them into her mouth, forcibly dragging her back.
The difference in strength between men and women is enormous. Lu Jiangting, who is over 1.8 meters tall, easily subdued Fang Qing, who is less than 1.6 meters tall.
After forcibly dragging her back, Lu Jiangting immediately locked the door from the inside.
Fang Qing angrily ripped the glove off her mouth and was about to speak when Lu Jiangting warned her, "Think carefully before you speak, or I'll tie you up."
He was genuinely angry; his expression was somewhat frightening, completely different from the Lu Jiangting Fang Qing usually saw.
Fang Qing hesitated for a moment and stopped yelling. She said, "We're not divorced yet, and you went to see Lin Yuyao. I was so angry that I said those things without thinking. You can't blame me for this. You're the one to blame."
"Blame me? If you hadn't gone to cause trouble for Yuyao, would I have gone to see her? Since they got married, have you ever seen me go to see her again? Even if I..."
Even though I stood waiting downstairs, I never dared to go upstairs and knock on their door.
"Fang Qing, our matter has nothing to do with Yu Yao. Don't go looking for trouble with her anymore."
Fang Qing gave a bitter smile and said, "I never went to cause her any trouble. What I said before was a lie. I went to see her today to ask if she wanted to go home for the New Year. I plan to take Chenchen back to my hometown after the divorce. If they want to go back, I'll go with them so they'll have company on the way."
They wouldn't have a holiday for the Chinese New Year, and Lu Jiangting knew that Fu Huaiyi couldn't leave.
Let alone going to Yuyao's house, he can't even leave his own home for the New Year.
"They probably won't go back."
"Yes, she said they weren't going back, so I left without saying anything."
Lu Jiangting: "Are you really planning to take Chenchen back to your hometown after the divorce?"
"Otherwise what? If Chenchen stays here, he'll want you to be his father. He'll be upset after our divorce, and people will laugh at him. I might as well take him with me."
Lu Jiangting felt guilty and said, "You stay here, my parents will help take care of Chenchen, it won't interfere with your work."
Fang Qing shook her head. "Let's just forget it. I can't stand seeing you guys here. If you're going to break up, let's do it cleanly and never see each other again."
Lu Jiangting: "..."
"Didn't you say you were being bullied back in your hometown?"
"Yes, so I've decided to listen to my parents, return Chenchen to the Wang family, and go back to my parents' home. While I'm still young, I'll accept the marriage arranged by my parents and start a new family."
what?
“The future is long, and I don’t want to waste my life like this. I’ve been a widow for Jianjun for so many years and raised Chenchen to elementary school. I’ve done right by him.”
That's utterly worthless.
Lu Jiangting became anxious, "You know what kind of people Jianjun's parents are, don't you? If you give Chenchen to them, how can they possibly treat Chenchen well? You're ruining him."
"So what? Blame it on his bad luck."
"How could you... how could you, a mother, say such a thing?"
“I can’t even take care of myself. My abilities are limited. I didn’t have the means to find him a loving father. Let it be. Jianjun was able to succeed in that kind of environment. He is Jianjun’s son, and I believe he can too.”
That's a load of rubbish.
“I know all too well how much Wang Jianjun suffered to get out of that family. And when Jianjun was little, his grandmother protected him. He was quite old when his grandmother passed away, and that's how he was able to get out.”
