Tong Wenping's face darkened completely, and the flesh on his cheeks trembled.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

The emphasis on his words was very obvious, and Jiang Meng could tell that it was a threatening warning to her.

Tong Wenping's face was very close to Jiang Meng's, less than two meters away. He was facing away from the light, and his entire face was in shadow.

The familiar feeling of oppression and suffocation came over me.

"I..." Jiang Meng was suddenly speechless.

Facing her husband who gave her a strong feeling of suffocation, all her courage seemed to have just been used up, and her body was shaking involuntarily because of fear and tension.

Jiang Meng was clearly already scared, but the mental oppression Tong Wenping exerted on her did not diminish in the slightest.

"What's wrong with your ears? Your wife said she wants to divorce you." Jing Ye had digested the explosive content by now. In order to prevent Tong Wenping from getting angry and causing another physical conflict, he walked over.

He stood in front of his sister, half covering Jiang Meng, and then cracked his knuckles, also using his actions to warn Tong Wenping to stand still and not act rashly.

Xu Weixing stood with Jing Ye. Although he didn't say anything, it was obvious that his attitude was the same as Jing Ye's.

In terms of momentum, Jiang Meng's side had five people, including two tall and strong men, so Tong Wenping lost in terms of momentum.

At this time, Ming Fu quietly grabbed Jiang Meng's hand and held her hand in his palm.

Bai Yinyin, who was standing beside her, also encouraged her courage and whispered to her, "Don't be afraid."

Jiang Meng looked up and saw the two tall and strong figures in front of him, and felt the warmth in his palms and the encouraging words in his ears.

At that moment she was filled with courage, and now she felt that she was not afraid of anything she faced.

"I know what I'm talking about. No matter how many times you ask me, I'll always give the same answer."

Although her voice was still a little trembling, perhaps because of excitement, or perhaps because she was still afraid, in order to encourage herself, Jiang Meng chose to take a step forward and face Tong Wenping head-on.

"I want to divorce you."

Tong Wenping was so angry that he gasped through his nose: "Just because of what happened just now?"

Without waiting for Jiang Meng to answer, Tong Wenping took it for granted that she was just impulsive and angry.

In order to put this matter behind him as soon as possible, Tong Wenping no longer cared about the outsiders around him and for the first time lowered his face to apologize to Jiang Meng.

It’s just that his way of apologizing is very different from others. He will find out the mistakes of others and tell you that you have problems too.

"I admit that I was wrong just now and that I was impulsive, but is this entirely my fault? Don't you also have some responsibility? If you hadn't said that, would I have gotten so angry?"

"Also, do you know how others will view me if you speak nonsense like this? You know how many people out there are jealous of my success today. Your words today are like a knife handle, a knife handle for those jealous to attack me. They will say, 'Look, Tong Wenping's wife is laughing at him for not being able to write anything, that he's lost his talent and his good days are over.'"

"Do you think this kind of reputation is good for me? Will my bad reputation do you any good? Do you still want to live in a big house? Do you still want to live a comfortable life in the future?"

Tong Wenping threw out a series of questions in one breath, questioning Jiang Meng.

I listened to him lightly put aside his own big problems, raise his wife's small problems, and complain about his wife at length.

Mingfu wanted to laugh when she heard this. She said, "Just because of such a small matter, you took action?"

Tong Wenping has been avoiding the main point and deliberately omitting the fact that he attacked Jiang Meng.

Jing Ye was sneering at Tong Wenping as if he was laughing at a joke, and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"You hit your wife because she said something unpleasant? That's quite manly. With that hit, who wouldn't say you, Teacher Tong, are a real man, a man of character, happy to take revenge, and establish your authority with a hit. Look, those people outside don't dare to slander you anymore. Who would dare to say that you've run out of ideas and can't write anything? You, Teacher Tong, are a man who dares to hit his wife when he's angry. Who would dare to look down on you?"

The marks on Jiang Meng's face could not be hidden, and one could tell what had happened just by looking at her face. Except for Jiang Meng, almost everyone at the scene was looking at Tong Wenping with contempt.

How can anyone respect a man who is in his thirties and can't even face up to what he has done?

Jing Ye also bluntly tore off the fig leaf on Tong Wenping. At this point, Tong Wenping realized that he could no longer fool people.

Since Jiang Meng has found someone to support her, let's give her some face as she wishes.

"I just said that I was wrong about this matter, so I apologize to Jiang Meng."

Tong Wenping used the best temper in his life and spoke softly to Jiang Meng.

"Xiao Meng, I was so angry just now that I lost control of my temper. You know I'm not usually like this. I promise this is the first and last time. I will control my temper from now on. Don't be angry and make a fool of yourself."

The good-tempered Tong Wenping was extremely unfamiliar to Jiang Meng.

She shook her head: "I'm not angry anymore, and you don't have to explain so much to me."

Hearing this, Tong Wenping thought Jiang Meng didn't care anymore. On the one hand, he disliked her for being pretentious and ignorant, and for making trouble for him, causing him to suffer strange stares for no reason. At the same time, he was satisfied with Jiang Meng's tact and for giving him a way out.

The dissatisfaction in his heart was accumulated, and he planned to deal with Jiang Meng later.

On the surface, he smiled with relief and called Jiang Meng affectionately: "In that case, let's go back. Look at you, you have delayed others so much time and caused them so much trouble because of a small matter at our house. They still have to repair the house and make dinner. Let's not delay them."

Tong Wenping seems to have not yet accepted the fact that Jiang Meng wants to divorce him.

Jiang Meng took a deep breath and said slowly, "Wen Ping, I have decided to divorce you. This is not just a temper tantrum."

Tong Wenping's expression changed again and again, but he finally tried his best to control his temper and said, "I won't listen to you. You are not calm now, so I won't argue with you. I will give you some time to think it over. We can talk again when you calm down."

Jiang Meng: "No need, I've thought it through clearly. In fact, this isn't the first time I've thought about divorcing you."

"I considered whether to divorce you as early as ten years ago. I have thought about this issue every year since then. I have thought about it enough and want to give myself a break." This was the first time she had the courage to bring it up.

Tong Wenping was obviously shocked. It was the first time he heard his gentle, considerate and obedient wife say this, saying that she had been thinking about divorcing him during their marriage of more than ten years.

He couldn't understand why Jiang Meng wanted to divorce him.

"What do you mean? Have I ever done anything wrong to you? I provide for you, give you a big house to live in, and make you live a rich life. I have earned enough respect for your parents in front of relatives and friends. Everyone would praise you for your good taste and for marrying well."

"Take the guy your parents had their eyes on. They said he was doing an internship at a public hospital, was a local, and had better conditions than me, so they wanted you to date him. Your parents were short-sighted. They thought a doctor like him could have as much of a future as me. And now, I, the one they looked down upon, have earned a ton of money right after graduation and bought a house outright. Meanwhile, the top student they had their eyes on, couldn't afford the down payment and had to borrow money everywhere, even from your parents. How ridiculous!"

"For you, I've been trying to save your face. But look at your college classmates. Those who work are oppressed by their bosses, and those who work full-time are desperate to spend every penny. Which of them has a life as comfortable as yours? And you're still not satisfied with this?"

"You still want to divorce me? You don't want to live a good life anymore, and you want to live a hard life for the rest of your life, right?"

Jing Ye raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, "Teacher Tong is really capable, as he's already able to buy a house outright right after graduating from university."

Tong Wenping let out a breath and didn't respond to Jing Ye's words. He knew he was capable, but Jing Ye's tone was not very friendly and sounded strange, so he would not go up to him and talk to him.

But this does not affect Jing Ye's performance.

"No wonder, Teacher Tong, you're like a beaten dog, so arrogant (woof)."

Tong Wenping, who was suddenly called a dog, said: "..."

Reason told Tong Wenping that there was no need to compete with Jing Ye, because he could not win against him.

Tong Wenping's face was gloomy, and he said unhappily, "It doesn't matter if you dislike me, but I can indeed create this kind of economic value."

"Yes, you are right. You have indeed provided your family with a good living condition, but a good life is not a necessity in life. I still want to divorce you." Jiang Meng said it very tactfully. She did not list his faults in detail like Tong Wenping did. She mainly wanted to save his face in public so that everyone could part ways amicably.

But Tong Wenping obviously did not have such awareness. In his opinion, Jiang Meng dared to file for divorce with him, and dared to file for divorce in front of outsiders and in front of the program crew, which did not give him face.

"You want a divorce, that's fine, but you couldn't even wait a day or two and had to bring it up on the show. Are you afraid I won't agree? I'm not completely unreasonable, nor am I someone who can't live without you and won't let go of you or pester you forever."

"Now, let everyone laugh at us. You're happy now, right? You're not afraid of being laughed at? Okay, I'm not afraid either. Let the whole country watch."

"We'll get a divorce as soon as we get home. I won't drag you down. I also advise you to think carefully. You'll be 37 after the New Year. How are you going to live after the divorce? How are you going to explain this to your parents? How are you going to face your relatives and neighbors?"

After saying that, Tong Wenping turned his sleeves and left, saying that he would not bother her anymore.

It was more refreshing than Mingfu had imagined.

Don't be fooled by some men who think they are great and boss their wives around. In fact, if they really want a divorce, they may not dare to do so. After all, it is not easy to find a satisfactory wife. If you find a younger one, you will have to accommodate her and spoil her. A man who is used to being bossed around at home can't stand this.

Even if there are those lustful men who spend some money to keep a mistress outside, they can visit her when they feel like it, give her some money and gifts from time to time, and don't have to worry about anything at all. But it's different when you marry her home. You still have to find someone who is obedient and respectful to live with.

No matter what Tong Wenping thought, it was a good thing that he agreed.

With his proud self-esteem, he certainly would not do anything to go back on his word, which would hurt his reputation as a great screenwriter.

Jiang Meng's hand, which was held by Ming Fu, was already sweating, but she was reluctant to let go.

It was this hand and the people around her that gave her courage.

Otherwise, she didn't know when she would be able to say these two words, or if she had the courage to say them, and she didn't know how long this frustrating and depressing life would last.

At this moment, Jiang Meng's heart suddenly became clear, as if the huge stone that had been weighing on his chest for many years had been removed, and even his breathing became easy and smooth.

She looked at them with great gratitude, tears of excitement in her eyes, and sincerely thanked them: "Thank you."

Bai Yinyin smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all over."

Ming Fu: "Sister Jiang Meng, you may have made many wrong decisions in your life, but the decision you just made will definitely be the most correct decision you have ever made in your life."

"Look at my Ah Fu, he understands this principle at such a young age." Jing Ye was very relieved. "But now that you have made a decision, don't waver. No matter what he says, or what your family says, don't listen to it. You live your life, not for anyone else. Your own feelings are the most important."

Jing Ye knew that in today's society, many families prefer to reconcile rather than separate, including the courts, which believe that it is better to demolish a temple than to break up a marriage.

I'm afraid that Jiang Meng's family will agree with Tong Wenping, or because he is rich and for the sake of the children, they will make some sacrifices and force Jiang Meng to give up the divorce.

Jiang Meng shook her head firmly: "I won't. I won't be influenced by anyone else when I make up my mind, and my parents won't stop me."

Xu Weixing: "We are fortunate to be your witness today. It is also a kind of fate. If he regrets it in the future, you can come to us and we should be able to help you solve the problem."

His calm tone conveys a sense of security, making people feel that his words have weight, and that you can trust him completely and seek his help when needed.

Jing Ye agreed wholeheartedly: "Yes! Come to us, I don't believe we can't deal with him."

"With his pride, he probably won't." Jiang Meng looked at them and smiled sincerely, "But if I really encounter difficulties or troubles that I can't solve myself, I will definitely not forget you."

Everyone was in a good mood because a big problem was solved.

Moreover, because no one came to eat for free in the evening, everyone was more enthusiastic about preparing dinner.

After Tong Wenping returned, he kept the door closed and never came out, and it was impossible for Jiang Meng to go back and live with Tong Wenping.

Jiang Meng said to Ming Fu a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to bother you tonight."

"Don't be so polite with me. This is the mountain spring water I just brought back. It's still cold. Apply it on your face quickly." Ming Fu soaked her only handkerchief with water and handed it to Jiang Meng.

Jiang Meng put the cold handkerchief against her face. Her face felt cool, and the burning pain was relieved a lot, and her heart also warmed up.

In the evening, Shao Yilai also heard about Jiang Meng's situation and calmly helped her analyze the situation and come up with ideas.

He was about the same age as Jiang Meng, so he called her by her name: "Jiang Meng, are you ready for a divorce?"

Bai Yinyin: "Sister Jiang Meng has been thinking about this for over ten years. Why aren't you ready yet? Isn't that right, Sister Jiang Meng?"

Jiang Meng also knew that due to her personality, many people might not believe that she had the courage to divorce, so she quickly assured him, "Yes, yes, I'm ready."

Shao Yi shook his head: "I'm not talking about mental preparation, I want to ask about your financial preparation, such as the joint property under your name, how many houses you have, how much savings you have, whether your husband has any foreign debts, and do you understand your family's financial situation?"

Shao Yi suddenly asked Bai Yinyin's blind spot. She had never thought about these questions before. She looked at Shao Yi with admiration.

Jiang Meng smiled bitterly: "I only have one house for now. In order to buy the one I live in now, I sold the three houses before. Now I still owe the bank a loan of 6 million."

It is the first-class apartment that netizens have been talking about. In order to move into the so-called wealthy area and show off his success, Tong Wenping not only sold his three existing houses, but also owed a large loan.

Jiang Meng: "We don't have much savings at home. We only have enough to live on. The rest of the money is in his company. He set up a studio with someone. I don't ask about the company's affairs. He often talks about how much money he makes, but he never brings it home. I don't know how much money he has now."

There is more room for maneuver in the company. Maybe Tong Wenping has transferred the property long ago, and the company is now an empty shell. At worst, he may have played around and the company will go bankrupt directly.

Jing Ye: "So you got married once, and all you got was a house? And a six million mortgage? No, is your name on the newly bought house?"

"The house is actually registered in my name." Jiang Meng said that this was because the bank refused to give Tong Wenping a loan, so she had no choice but to register the house in Jiang Meng's name.

Tong Wenping only put his own name on the three houses he bought before, saying that men feel safe only when they have a house, but women don’t need it. As long as they marry well, they will have no shortage of places to live.

As a result, he would rather lack a sense of security than live in a mansion that satisfies his vanity.

Shao Yi: "Since the house is in your name, if you win the deal, will you be able to repay the 6 million yuan loan?"

It’s not that Shao Yi looks down on Jiang Meng, but Jiang Meng doesn’t seem to have a strong opinion and doesn’t look like a professional woman. It’s very likely that she has no source of income.

This is also what most netizens are eager to know, whether Jiang Meng has any source of income.

Netizens tried to dig up information about Jiang Meng, but they couldn't find anything. Jiang Meng is the woman behind Tong Wenping. This public name only appeared in Tong Wenping's interviews. She is a complete amateur.

Jiang Meng smiled calmly, not minding Shao Yi's questioning, and not shying away from the issue of her income.

"Over the years, I have made some money from my side hustle, and the little I have saved is all with my parents. They are reluctant to spend money, so they keep it for me."

Jiang Meng is very smart in this regard.

Ming Fu asked, "Does he know?"

Jiang Meng: "He looked down on it. It was just small money in his eyes. He never asked about it. He probably thought I had spent it all."

Shao Yi: "Is it enough to pay off the mortgage?"

Jiang Meng didn't answer, but just smiled calmly.

Shao Yi gasped in shock. The fact that she could calmly say that she could repay the loan meant that her savings far exceeded six million!

He thought Jiang Meng was an unemployed middle-aged woman who had to rely on others for her livelihood, but it turned out that she was a wealthy woman who could achieve financial freedom on her own.

Not only did Shao Yi not expect this, but no one else present expected this either.

"Excuse me, what is your side job?" Shao Yi was so envious that his mouth was watering with envy.

They are all middle-aged men in their thirties. He works hard to shoot a movie for a year and can earn at most a few hundred thousand yuan, which can cut his annual expenses in half.

Other top stars can buy a big villa in full with their annual income, but he can’t even buy a three-bedroom apartment with his ten years of income.

Jiang Meng was stunned for a moment, as if hesitating and conflicted.

Shao Yi waved his hands repeatedly and said tactfully, "It's okay if you don't say it. I absolutely have no intention of stealing your job."

Jiang Meng then smiled and said, "No, no, I'm definitely not afraid that you'll take my job. If you're willing to join us and create more good works, you're very welcome in our industry."

Shao Yi: "What kind of creative work are you doing? Do you also write scripts?"

Jiang Meng paused in shock, then said softly, "I earn money by writing lyrics for singers, and occasionally I compose some music."

She grew up in a wealthy family. Not only was she well-read and had beautiful literary talent, she also knew how to play many musical instruments, and had passed the piano and cello exams.

Anyone who can earn more than six million by writing lyrics and composing music is definitely not an ordinary person.

But the name Jiang Meng is too unfamiliar in the industry. After searching through the names in my mind, there is no teacher who matches Jiang Meng's name.

Jing Ye glanced at Xu Weixing and asked him with his eyes if he had any impression.

Xu Weixing also shook his head.

Now Jing Ye is very curious about Jiang Meng and wants to know what works she has.

"Sister Jiang Meng, did you write those lyrics and music?"

It must be some folk song, □□, children's song or popular music, otherwise Jing Ye would definitely not know it.

"I can't list all the lyrics and music I've written in a short time. You might have heard of me."

It was the first time that Jiang Meng mentioned the name used in her industry in front of others. She felt a little embarrassed and smiled shyly.

"My name in the industry is Meng Jiang"

But what she didn't know was that her name caused a huge response on the Internet.

[Meng Jiang? Is this the Meng Jiang I know?]

Is this the Meng Jiang who can write a hundred lyrics a year, each one of them excellent, regarded as a classic, and each one extremely popular, winning Best Lyricist awards year after year, and even foreigners applauding after listening to them?

[Who can tell me if this is true or not? Did I hear it wrong?]

[Jiang Meng, Meng Jiang, Jiang Meng read backwards is Meng Jiang, Meng Jiang is definitely Jiang Meng's sister! ]

【I declare that this is something that absolutely shocked me all year! 】

【Ahhhhhh, it’s actually my treasure on earth, Sister Meng Jiang! 】

My sister is truly amazing. Not only can she write over a hundred lyrics a year, she can also compose music, and her output is equally impressive. She is truly amazing and hardworking. She is the idol of a newbie like me, woooooooooo.

Most of Meng Jiang's works are grand and majestic, with refined and clever wording and rich cultural heritage. I thought Meng Jiang was a middle-aged man with a wealth of knowledge and a bald head, but I didn't expect Meng Jiang to be a gentle woman, and Tong Wenping's wife.

【I love my sister, you are my God! 】

[I've noticed that my sister's output seems to have decreased in recent years. Is it because of the man below her?]

[It could also be that the bastard man himself can’t write anything good, so his pride gets in the way, and he can’t stand the fact that his wife is more capable than him, so he forces his sister to not write anything.]

[As expected of a scheming and cunning man, bah! ]

[You've harmed my sister Meng Jiang like this, you bastard Tong Wenping. I will never forgive you!]

The name Meng Jiang is known not only to people in the industry, but also to anyone who has heard a few of her hit songs.

Although she has never shown up and does not accept interviews, she is the most mysterious person in the industry.

But because her works are so popular, her name is absolutely well-known.

As soon as Jiang Meng finished speaking, everyone around him fell silent.

Everyone was so shocked that they just stared at her curiously and forgot to speak.

Xu Weixing asked, "Are you really Meng Jiang?"

Jiang Meng: "Shame on me."

Bai Yinyin: "Then why do you..."

"Why are you so mysterious? You never show up, right?" Jiang Meng answered for her.

Bai Yinyin nodded repeatedly. It was understandable that a musician of Meng Jiang's level would not accept random interviews, but it was strange that he didn't even go to award ceremonies, not even showing up at international music awards like the Grammys and MTV.

Of course there was a reason why Jiang Meng didn't go before. If she overshadowed Tong Wenping, Tong Wenping would lose face.

When others introduce Tong Wenping, they would say that Tong Wenping is Jiang Meng's husband. In the eyes of others, he is still a country boy who relies on his wife to become famous and will never be able to hold his head up high in his life.

So when Tong Wenping heard that Jiang Meng wanted to engage in creative work, he strongly opposed it. The final concession was that Jiang Meng could not use his real name and was not allowed to show up in public.

I will have to stand in the shadow behind Tong Wenping for the rest of my life and be an ordinary woman who is dependent on him.
