Chapter 386: Did you get scolded?
“It’s nothing, just a light tap on the old man won’t hurt him. I apologized afterwards, but they wouldn’t let it go. Jiang Ting said he wanted a divorce.”
"What?" Sister Zhao exclaimed in surprise, "Just for this... you want to divorce me?"
Fang Qing nodded sadly.
"The old man is fine. I'm telling you, Fang Qing, why would you want to divorce me over something like this? Lu Jiangting doesn't treat you very well." She shook her head and sighed.
Lu Jiangting didn't treat her well; he didn't love her at all. He loved Lin Yuyao, and Fang Qing always knew that.
But she still wanted to save face in front of outsiders, saying, "Actually, Jiang Ting treated me very well before my in-laws came here. Whether it was me or Chenchen, he would rush to help us whenever we had a headache or fever. He would rather save money himself than let Chenchen and me suffer. But since my in-laws came, he has slowly changed."
Sister Zhao understood. "I get it now, it's just like my husband. When my husband and I first got married, we were very much in love, especially when I was pregnant. I said I wanted to eat something sour, and strawberries had just come into season and were very expensive. He would go to his parents to ask for money so he could buy them for me."
It's a pity that even the best relationship can't withstand the interference of in-laws. With each instance of their meddling, our relationship has deteriorated. Now he doesn't give me a single penny of his earnings, and he doesn't care whether I live or die. Luckily, I found this job; if he doesn't give me money, he doesn't give me any, I can support myself.
The two women belittled their in-laws, and Fang Qing naturally had nothing nice to say, portraying herself as the perfect victim.
Finally, Sister Zhao said, "Fang Qing, don't be afraid. He's just bluffing by saying he wants a divorce. He dares to get a divorce? Pshaw! What will happen to his parents if he gets divorced?"
Ok?
Fang Qing suddenly realized that Sister Zhao was right.
She was also frightened, which is why she panicked like this.
Upon closer reflection, it's no wonder Lu Jiangting would get a divorce.
Even if he gets divorced, do you think his parents can take him to the army to support him?
Thinking of this, Fang Qing's gloom vanished.
What she didn't know was that after lunch today, Lu Jiangting went directly to Lao Wang and said he wanted to divorce Fang Qing.
Old Wang was completely dumbfounded.
"Have you gone mad again?"
Lu Jiangting: "..."
"Minister, I'm serious."
"Seriously? I think you're still not tired enough after a day, you're just bored."
He tossed a thick stack of work records onto the table and said casually, "Speak, what happened?"
"It's nothing, I just figured it out."
Old Wang gave a sneer, "You've figured it out?"
"Yes, there is no love between Fang Qing and me. We only got married to make it easier to take care of Chenchen. But marriage shouldn't be like this. If we stay together, not only will we not be able to take good care of Chenchen, but we will also cause her some harm."
"Injury?" He saw the marks on Lu Jiangting's neck and asked, "Did you two have a fight or a quarrel?"
"All."
Ah.
Old Wang smiled and asked again, "How are your parents doing after the divorce?"
Just as Lu Jiangting was about to speak, Old Wang reminded him again, "You're very busy right now, I can't let you take leave every few days."
“I know, I’ve thought about it. After I divorce Fang Qing, I’ll hire a nanny for my parents. I can get one for fifty yuan a month. My salary of two hundred yuan a month is more than enough.”
"Oh, so will you continue to use your own salary to subsidize Fang Qing?"
Lu Jiangting shook his head, "No, I've given her enough over the years. Besides, she's richer than me, she has a job, and she's not short of money."
"Don't you think it's not easy for her to raise a child alone?"
Lu Jiangting shook his head. "It's easier for her without my parents to drag her down. Besides, Chenchen is growing up and is healthy, unlike before when she was always sick. She's already gotten through the toughest time."
"So Fang Qing agreed?"
Lu Jiangting remained silent.
He knew Fang Qing disagreed.
Old Wang understood. "Oh, Fang Qing disagrees?"
"She...she disagrees, but..."
Old Wang waved his hand, stopping him from continuing.
"Marriage is not a game. Let's talk about this later. Go back to work first."
It was time for work, so Lu Jiangting nodded and returned to his workstation.
Old Wang was so angry he laughed. One minute it was breaking off the engagement, the next it was getting married, and then it was getting divorced.
It's just a small matter, why does it cause so much trouble for him?
As soon as Lu Jiangting came out, Yi Yunshuo ran up to him and asked, "Hey, Jiangting, are you really planning to divorce Fang Qing?"
Lu Jiangting: "..."
"What does it have to do with you?"
"Aren't we friends? I care about you."
"Hmph, you care about me?"
"Of course I care about you. Are you really going to divorce Fang Qing?"
Lu Jiangting was so angry that his lips twitched, and he shoved him away, saying, "None of your business."
Then, angrily, he returned to his seat.
Yi Yunshuo returned to his seat and whispered to Fu Huaiyi, "Lu Jiangting told Lao Wang that he wanted to divorce Fang Qing, and guess what happened?"
Fu Huaiyi: "..." Another guessing game?
“If you have something to say, say it, and if you have something to say, let it go.”
"Tsk, you're really boring. It's not enough to just chat with you."
Fu Huaiyi: Ha, that's what I think too.
"Old Wang didn't take his words seriously at all, treating them as a joke. Divorce? Hey, is this something you can just get married and divorced whenever you want? Just you wait, he won't get a divorce unless we tear him apart."
"Yi Yunshuo".
Just as Yi Yunshuo was getting into his speech, Old Wang appeared out of nowhere at the door, his voice booming like a bell, sending a shiver down everyone's spine.
"Minister Wang...?"
Old Wang's face darkened. "Are you very free?"
"No."
"If you have so much to say, come out and tell me."
Yi Yunshuo shook his head hastily, "No, I still have work to finish, I'll do it now."
"Hmph, then why don't you hurry up and do it? Let me tell you, if you dare to hold me back again, I'll kill you."
Everyone else kept their heads down, trying to suppress their laughter as they worked.
Yi Yunshuo was so frightened that he didn't dare to utter a sound for a long time, and kept his head down and worked obediently.
Old Wang inspected the group and, seeing that everyone was working very diligently, snorted coldly and left.
As soon as he left, a heavy sigh of relief filled the room.
Yi Yunshuo patted his chest and whispered, "You scared me to death! Have you noticed? Old Wang's face has changed. Now he looks more and more like an old turtle."
Fu Huaiyi: "..." It's not a loss to scold you.
……
Old Wang really didn't take Lu Jiangting's words about wanting a divorce to heart. Marriage is a big deal; how can you just get married and divorced like that?
He's lived this long and hasn't seen many couples get divorced.
None of my relatives or friends are divorced.
They've been married for almost a year, how could they possibly get a divorce?
Honestly, young people these days really do whatever comes to mind.
Is it really okay to just casually talk about something as serious as divorce?
