Jiang Tian, a renowned渣女 (scorned woman/player) in her lifetime with countless boyfriends, was recruited by the Main God after her death to become an invincible host for the Female Lead group.<...
Every word Chen Qingxuan spoke was resounding, but Cheng Yize seemed to have no desire to speak.
In this variety show, every couple assumes they're talking about love and feelings, but reality is too harsh.
After all, real-world problems cannot be resolved with emotions.
If the truth were revealed, the only result would be the cancellation of the program.
The director broke out in a cold sweat at that moment.
He truly didn't expect that Chen Qingxuan would directly reveal the biggest scandal in her family.
Many people have heard the phrase "preferring sons to daughters" since childhood, but most of those who truly experience this feeling and suffer from it are women.
Chen Qingxuan's life was already wonderful. Her parents unconditionally supported her. When she insisted on marrying Cheng Yize, her parents chose to acquiesce, respecting her freedom to choose her own marriage.
However, to ensure that she would not have to bow down in this marriage, her parents gave her a very generous dowry.
But what she did was also a kind of betrayal.
She let herself down; she didn't wake up.
She only woke up when she discovered that her daughter was going to grow up in a dark environment, and many viewers in the live stream said it was too late.
For her, waking up after such a long time meant it was naturally very late.
But for a child, whose life is just beginning, leaving the harsh environment can actually help her life get back on track to happiness.
After calming herself down, Chen Qingxuan said to Cheng Yize, "Perhaps when I went on this show, my subconscious was telling me that I should change my way of life. Humans are naturally inclined to seek advantage and avoid harm. I know that I have been trapped in the abyss for too long and it is time to get out."
Cheng Yize seemed not to understand her expression. He scratched his head vigorously and looked at Chen Qingxuan with an indescribable look of confusion: "Wife, I really don't know what you're trying to do. Have you noticed that you're extremely nitpicky?"
“I’m a man, and I’ve been around men for a long time. I know what kind of family situations many of them have. Even if their wives go out and brag that they control all the money in the house and how good their husbands are to them, I can name a whole bunch of men who have definitely cheated on their wives. But their wives all choose to keep quiet. You know why? Like you said yourself, people are naturally inclined to seek advantage and avoid harm. They know very well what kind of impact losing such a man would have on their lives. They are wise, but what you’ve done is very puzzling to me.”
"I do treat my daughter differently, but think about it carefully. Have I ever deprived her of food or drink? Have I prevented her from going to school or from enjoying the life of a little princess? Just her household registration is something many people would never dream of in their entire lives. I really don't understand whether you're venting your emotions or truly considering the child's well-being. The income I can provide and the resources I can offer her are far more substantial than what you call favoritism towards sons. This world is like this; it gives us many privileges. I haven't used these privileges to find other women, nor have I cheated. Since we got married, you've been my only child. We have a son and a daughter. I dedicate myself to the family; all my income goes to the household. What more could you possibly want?"
Cheng Yize's words instantly garnered countless responses.
From his perspective, he was already a good man, no matter what.
Many men have philandering intentions, and their wives have to swallow their anger.
So many women have been taught to be completely incapable of living independently; they will not abandon their husbands unless they are abandoned by them.
When Chen Qingxuan married him, he was indeed a "phoenix man" (a man from a poor background who achieves success), but over the years he has successfully shed that label. Everything he has achieved is earned by his own hands, and Cheng Yize does not think he is shameful.
He simply thought his wife had become extreme.
He looked at Chen Qingxuan: "Is it because of Jiang Tian? I told you long ago not to stay with these unhappy women, she'll corrupt you. Now you want to come back and ask for a divorce, have you thought about the consequences? After the divorce, are you going back to your hometown? What will happen to the child's household registration? Do you want her to give up her citizenship in a first-tier city, or do you want her to give up the advantages of living in a first-tier city?"
"You're good to our daughter, and while I may not be as good, I'll fulfill my responsibilities as a father and raise her well. Even without a dowry, I won't do what some provinces do, selling their daughters for exorbitant bride prices. You just want a divorce? Have you even considered whether your current financial situation can provide a good life for our child? We're a family now; we need to be realistic. You think my feelings are fake, but all my efforts are genuine. Honey, please stop this. We don't have to film this show. I just hope you can be realistic and stop trying to be a 'strong woman' all the time. To be a strong woman, you need both emotional and financial independence. Which one have you achieved?"
Cheng Yize is no fool for rising from a rural upbringing to become a senior executive in a large corporation.
He really didn't know what Chen Qingxuan was thinking, that she would so resolutely bring up divorce with him.
This woman seems to have forgotten her own circumstances.
If they get divorced, Cheng Yize is confident that he can immediately find a woman similar to Chen Qingxuan.
When he had nothing, Chen Qingxuan chose him.
She won her gamble and is living the life she has now.
Now that he has achieved great success, he has no intention of changing his wife and plans to live a good life with her. Unexpectedly, Chen Qingxuan turned against him first—Cheng Yize really wants to ask her how much she really knows.
Has she ever truly understood her situation?
All the family's resources are given to the children. Chen Qingxuan's decision to divorce her disrupts the established balance and leaves the children without a father. She is so naive, so naive that it's laughable.
The sound in the live stream suddenly became quieter.
The issues Cheng Yize raised were all too realistic.
Not long ago, he behaved very badly in the live broadcast room, which made a large group of people dislike him. However, when he analyzed his family's various conditions, many people could only agree with him.
Cheng Yize is right; he has already paved the way for his child within his capabilities.
But who could have known that Chen Qingxuan would suddenly act like she'd lost her mind and want to end the marriage?
How can a marriage with children end so quickly? My ex-husband gambled, and I'd rather help him pay off his debts than have my children become homeless with me. I have no house or car, and I've always been a stay-at-home mom with no way out. So now we're paying off the debts together, at least the children have both parents and won't face discrimination outside.
