Chapter 772 A Divorce Can Be Made Immediately

As soon as she said this, Wang Ye looked at her with gratitude in his eyes.

Qin Ce remained silent, quietly serving food to his wife.

Today, he's just Qiao Xing's sidekick; he just needs to eat and go home.

Wang Yue completely agreed with Qiao Xing's words. He nodded and said, "Xingxing is right. All you do is urge us to have a child. Prices are rising so fast these days, and everything costs money. Having a child is easy, but if you don't have enough financial resources, how will you raise it?"

“Why can’t we raise him? When I gave birth to Xiao Ye, we didn’t even have a decent house, but I still managed to support him through university.”

Wang Yue and Qiao Xing couldn't out-argue He Fen, who kept spouting her grand theories.

"If you ask me, these are all excuses you young people make for yourselves! Life in the past wasn't any worse than it is now. The older generation was still having children, and some even had three or four. I'm not asking you to give me seven or eight, just leave one bloodline for my Wang family, okay?"

Wang Ye felt that he was just being unreasonable, and every time this happened, he wanted to stand up and run away immediately.

But today is He Fen's birthday, and Qiao Xing and Qin Ce are also here, so he doesn't want everyone to part on bad terms.

Wang Ye softened his tone, trying to gloss over the matter first, "Mom, don't worry, once my shop's business stabilizes, we'll discuss having a child and try to give you a grandson next year!"

As he spoke, he frantically gave Bai Yi meaningful glances.

Bai Yi was lost in her own emotions and didn't see Wang Ye's gaze.

It was only after Qiao Xing nudged her that she quickly came to her senses.

Following Wang Ye's words, she said to He Fen, "Auntie, I know you mean well. Wang Ye and I will seriously consider the matter of the child."

He Fen wasn't fooled at all. She sighed in disappointment, "Every time I talk to you about the child, you try to fool me with these kinds of words, as if I'm forcing you. I know you hate me and are probably cursing me in your hearts."

As she spoke, she choked up, "But I did all this for Xiao Ye, for the good of the Wang family. It's one thing that you don't take my words to heart, but you treat me like a villain. I really can't stay in this family any longer!"

"Mom, look at you saying that again. In this family, who doesn't listen to you? Isn't it always you who says what to do? Don't overthink things."

He Fen slammed her hand on the table. "Fine, since you're going to listen to me, I'll make things clear today!"

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Bai Yi and said, "Xiao Yi, it's not that I'm forcing you on purpose, but since you've married Xiao Ye, you're a member of our Wang family, and having children is inevitable."

Bai Yi pursed her lips and lowered her gaze. "I understand."

Wang Ye opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but He Fen continued, "I only have one son, Xiao Ye. I can't just watch him grow old without anyone to take care of him. If you really don't want to have children, then give Xiao Ye a way out as soon as possible. You two can each live your own lives!"

Qin Ce had just placed the food in front of Qiao Xing when he heard this, he paused, and then looked up at He Fen.

If you can't speak, you don't have to.

Wang Ye's eyes widened suddenly. "Mom! What nonsense are you talking about again? What do you mean by living separately? Bai Yi is my wife. If I don't live with her, who else can I live with?"

Wang Yue stood up and tried to pull He Fen back to the room. "You haven't even been drinking, yet you're already talking nonsense. The two children are perfectly fine. Aren't you just looking for trouble by saying things like that?"

"Don't pull me away!" He Fen pushed him away. "Even if what I said was harsh, I had to say it today."

"Bai Yi, when you married Xiao Ye with a child in your arms, I thought I wouldn't say anything as long as Xiao Ye was willing. But if you don't want to have a child for Xiao Ye, then you and Xiao Ye should divorce as soon as possible and do whatever you want. Our Wang family won't hold you back, and you shouldn't hold Xiao Ye back either!"

"Enough!"

Wang Ye stood up angrily, startling everyone.

Linlin rarely saw Wang Ye so angry. He shrugged and fearfully burrowed into Bai Yi's arms.

Bai Yi felt incredibly conflicted. She looked at Wang Ye, reached out and tugged at him, telling him to stop arguing with He Fen.

However, Wang Ye couldn't stand it. Although he was angry when she criticized Bai Yi, he never said anything bad about He Fen.

But today, even though she knew there were other people around, she still said such nasty things. Wasn't she deliberately trying to embarrass Bai Yi and make her unable to hold her head up in front of others?

As soon as Wang Ye stood up, He Fen followed suit.

She retorted defiantly, "What, you're going to go against your mother for her sake? Fine! Do whatever you want, I'll just consider it a waste of my time raising you as my son?"

"You!" Wang Ye clenched his fists, gritting his teeth in anger.

Fearing things would escalate beyond control, Qiao Xing quickly advised Wang Ye, "Cousin, don't be angry. Let's talk things out and sit down first."

He Fen was being unreasonable and irrational, and Wang Ye was filled with anger, but he didn't dare to say anything really hurtful to her.

No matter what, she's still his mother.

At this moment, Bai Yi stood up.

She had Linlin stand behind her, looked at He Fen, took a deep breath and said, "Auntie, I know that you have always been dissatisfied with me, whether it's because of Linlin or because of the child I had with him, after being married to Wang Ye for so long. But I ask myself honestly, I have not done anything to wrong your Wang family."

As Wang Ye listened to her words, he suddenly felt uneasy.

He could almost guess what Bai Yi was going to say next.

Bai Yi paused, then said calmly, "I can understand your feelings for Wang Ye, because I am also a mother. But I think I have the absolute right to have children, not that I have to have a child for you whenever you want."

“If you really think that not having children means you need to divorce Wang Ye, I can divorce him immediately if he agrees.”

"Bai Yi!" Wang Ye exclaimed anxiously.

Bai Yi bowed slightly. "I'm sorry to have disturbed your meal. Please continue eating. I'll take Linlin back now."

After she finished speaking, she took Linlin's hand and left.

"Bai Yi! Bai Yi!"

Wang Ye hurriedly chased after him.

After the two left, Qiao Xing couldn't stay any longer. She stood up and pulled Qin Ce, who had been completely invisible the whole time.

"Uncle, Aunt, it's getting late, we'll head back now."

Wang Yue was so embarrassed by He Fen's antics that he felt too ashamed to speak to Qiao Xing.

He forced himself to stand up, forced a smile, and said to Qiao Xing, "Look at the mess we made today, I didn't even let you eat properly. When we have time, your uncle will arrange a good meal for you."
