Divorce Me, Darling: The Idol Wife's Variety Show Scandal

It was you who insisted on joining the variety show. So why are you the one regretting your public image collapse? In his past life, the male lead's wife Su Lin twisted the truth on the program...

Chapter 166 Why don't you come in and hold on a little longer?

Splash!

Wearing his prison uniform, Su Yao reluctantly walked to the glass window and sat down.

The awkwardness and helplessness she felt when she first met her sister Su Lin had now turned into complaints and irritability.

After all, his brother-in-law personally brought him in!

Although he should be called my ex-brother-in-law now, he was also the husband and ex-husband of the person in front of me.

There was still a lingering resentment in my heart.

The thick glass windows of the meeting room reflected the different expressions of the siblings on the two separate occasions. Su Lin, who was outside, picked up the phone first, her brows revealing a hint of anxiety and guilt.

For a moment, I didn't know how to start the conversation.

Just as Su Yao inside the glass window hesitated to pick up the receiver, the guard in the distance loudly reminded him.

"Hurry up, the visiting time is forty minutes. If you don't want to talk, go back now."

Upon hearing the discipline officer's reminder, Su Yao subconsciously trembled. Then, under Su Lin's expectant gaze, he reluctantly picked up the receiver, frowning impatiently as he glanced at Su Lin on the other end.

"Why are you coming to see me now?"

"My parents have come to see me for so many days, but you haven't come even once. What, did you find a way to get your husband, Lin Chu, to let me go?"

"Oh, so now you should call him ex-husband, right?"

As Su Lin listened to her younger brother Su Yao's complaints on the other end of the phone, she subconsciously wanted to explain, but she didn't know what to say.

Just as he was about to speak but hesitated, Su Yao on the other side became increasingly aggrieved and started complaining more and more.

"Oh, so now I'm the only one suffering inside while you're all enjoying yourself outside, right?"

Where is Lin Chu?

Why doesn't he come in to see me?!

"At least he should listen to me, let me explain. Is he really that heartless?"

“We’re all family, what’s wrong with me spending a little money for him? Why would he have someone call the police and come to my house to arrest me first thing in the morning?”

He became more and more agitated as he spoke, and he even recalled the scene of the police breaking into his home and suddenly taking him away that day.

His voice choked with emotion, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Sister!! I'm your brother, Lin Chu's brother-in-law!"

"The way he did things not only shows a lack of respect for me, but also a lack of respect for you, our parents, and our whole family!!"

"Do you know that the day the police suddenly rushed in, it not only scared Mom and Dad, but also Huihui. She hasn't recovered from that shock for days and hasn't come to see me!"

"Huihui and I are truly in love. She even promised to marry me after the New Year. What am I supposed to do now?"

Su Yao forcefully wiped away the tears that had been squeezed out of the corners of his eyes, and glared hatefully at Su Lin, who was sitting opposite him with a sorrowful face and a belly full of guilt.

"It's all your fault, do you even know that?!"

"If you, as his wife, were a little more assertive and could keep Lin Chu in check, would he dare to treat me like this? Would he dare to treat Mom and Dad like this?"

"I heard he kicked you all out of the villa?"

"That bastard, that beast worse than a pig or a dog, he'll get his comeuppance sooner or later!!!"

Bang!

When he got to the exciting part, Su Yao suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the table without warning, instantly drawing frowns and reprimands from the guards in the meeting room.

"Control your emotions, don't yell!"

"If you don't want to see me, I can send you back right now!"

Although Su Yao was unwilling, he had experienced discipline in the past few days and naturally dared not misbehave.

He could only swallow his grievances and sit there sullenly with his head down.

Seeing her younger brother looking so aggrieved, Su Lin was immediately filled with guilt.

She was initially angry that her younger brother had kept the more than 40 million yuan he had lost from her, which had led to her current predicament of divorce.

But now that she saw her usually carefree younger brother locked up, all her resentment at being betrayed vanished.

"Xiao Yao, don't worry, I've already hired a lawyer to handle the lawsuit."

"The lawyer said that as long as we cooperate, she has a way to make Lin Chu redistribute the assets, and the principle of the law is to protect the weaker party, women. We will definitely win the case!"

"As for Huihui... I've been through this, and I see clearly that she's not a good woman for settling down!"

"This time you should finally see Huihui's true colors."

"Your parents have had a hard time, and you work hard to earn money. You can't let a woman like Huihui deceive you for no reason."

"Listen to me, as long as you cooperate with me and get through this, once I get the money and you get out of prison, I'll definitely find you a virtuous and beautiful wife!"

"You must not make any mistakes while you are in there. Just follow the instructions obediently, and you will be out in a few years."

Upon hearing this, Su Yao immediately wiped away his tears and started shouting.

"No!! I want Huihui. Huihui is a good woman. You can't say that about her!!"

"I can't wait even a day longer than Huihui and I have been together for so many years!"

"You need to find a way to get me out of here right now! Whether it's spending money or hiring someone, whatever the method, you have to get me out of here immediately!!"

"I can't break up with Huihui!!"

Su Lin originally came to persuade her brother to confess and take the blame, but she never expected that he would fall so deeply in love with the woman that her whole family disapproved of.

For a moment, Su Lin was so angry with him that she became somewhat incoherent.

"Huihui, Huihui!! That woman saw you were down on your luck and ran away with all the money you've given her over the years, she's never come back!"

"You've been locked up here for so many days. Apart from my parents and me visiting you, has she come to see you even once?"

How could you marry a woman like that?

"No, my parents and I agree, we absolutely disagree!!"

Marrying that kind of woman will bring you a lifetime of misfortune!

Seeing that the conversation was going off-topic and full of useless talk, Su Lin had a headache.

He quickly stopped Su Yao, who was still whining and causing trouble.

"Alright, alright, let's talk about these trivial matters later. Right now, the most important thing is to figure out how to get our family through this difficult time!"

“There is only one way right now: let Lin Chu and me go to court. The lawyer will help us clear the more than 40 million yuan that we transferred, and turn it into joint debt of the couple. Then there will be no problem. Your sentence will be much lighter, and you may only need three or four years to get out. If you behave well, you can get out earlier.”

"Not only that, if we win the lawsuit, we'll also get the copyrights to Lin Chu's new songs, as well as more than half of the family's assets from several houses, which will be worth at least tens of millions!"

"When you've quit gambling, I'll give you some money so you can live a stable life!"

"However... to win the case, there's a crucial issue that needs to be resolved, and... I need your help..."

When the conversation turned to serious topics, Su Lin couldn't help feeling guilty, her eyes constantly scanning her younger brother Su Yao's reactions.

Su Yao had just been crying his eyes out because his family didn't approve of him being with Huihui.

Hearing her sister mention that there was a turning point in the case, her eyes immediately welled up with tears, she wiped her nose, and gripped the phone receiver as if it were a lifeline, carefully asking questions.

"What's the problem?"

"Hurry up and tell me! I'll definitely help if I can!"

"I'm currently locked up here, is there anything I can do to help?"

Seeing that things had come to this point, Su Lin stopped hesitating and could only tentatively try to speak.

"That's how it is... If you want to help you, you have to get me out of this mess first. I can't have any problems..."

"So, the lawyer's advice is that you grit your teeth, take all the blame, and say that you did it all yourself and that it has nothing to do with me."

"That way you can only stay in there for a few more years at most, and then you'll be released, and then..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Lin on the other end of the phone widened her eyes in shock and anger.

"What did you say?!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

"Why the hell didn't they let you in here and hold on, so I could go out and fight this lawsuit?!"

"So you guys are treating me like an idiot?"
