Reborn in the 70s: The Chief's Wife Wants a Divorce

In her past life, Zhao Zhenzhen's military officer husband made a mistake, dying and bringing shame to the entire family.

To atone for her husband's sins, Zhao Zhenzhen did the hardes...

Chapter 140 Defeating Rumors with Facts

"Okay, I'll sign." Zhou Bingchen took a deep breath, picked up the pen, and quickly signed his name on the agreement.

Aside from the second point, which was a bit hurtful to Zhou Bingchen's pride, he was confident that he could achieve the other points.

In summary, it all boils down to handing over your salary, listening to your wife, and not having affairs outside the marriage!

Even without this agreement, Zhou Bingchen would have done the same.

Zhou Bingchen was unaware that Zhao Zhenzhu originally intended to write the fourth clause: if Zhou Bingchen cheats on his wife and they divorce, the child will be raised by Zhao Zhenzhu.

After some thought, Zhao Zhenzhu finally wrote down the constraints on both husband and wife.

In any case, Zhao Zhenzhu herself would never cheat on her husband.

If Zhou Bingchen continues his affair with Widow Liu, Zhao Zhenzhu will divorce him and take not only the children but also all of Zhou Bingchen's money.

Hmph! Zhao Zhenzhu is so petty! Who told Zhou Bingchen not to agree to a divorce now?

The agreement is made in duplicate.

After Zhou Bingchen signed his name, Zhao Zhenzhu went to the drawer (actually, it was in her spatial dimension) and found a box of inkpad. Both of them pressed their fingerprints on it.

Zhao Zhenzhu blew on it, and after the ink and inkpad on her signature had dried, she carefully folded her copy of the agreement and put it away.

The other copy was, of course, handed directly to Zhou Bingchen.

"Pearl, keep both of them! I don't need them," Zhou Bingchen said, waving his hand.

“No, you’re responsible for keeping your own things. If you don’t want to keep them, you can tear them up.” Zhao Zhenzhu was unwilling to be the “custodian.”

She was serious about signing the agreement.

"Alright!" Zhou Bingchen had no choice but to accept it.

Zhou Bingchen folded the document and was about to put it into his backpack.

"Wait," Zhao Zhenzhu called out.

While Zhou Bingchen was surprised, Zhao Zhenzhu grabbed his backpack and pulled out a bankbook and a hundred yuan.

These two items were given to Zhao Zhenzhu by Zhou Bingchen yesterday.

Zhao Zhenzhu didn't want it at the time and stuffed it back into Zhou Bingchen's backpack.

Today, Zhao Zhenzhu is going to take it away.

With the agreement in place, Zhao Zhenzhu felt perfectly justified in taking the money.

Seeing Zhao Zhenzhu proudly put away the passbook and the hundred yuan, Zhou Bingchen breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he corrected his mistake in time; otherwise, Pearl would definitely not want him anymore.

While eating breakfast, Zhou Jiakai kept glancing at Zhou Bingchen and then at Zhao Zhenzhu, his eyes filled with conflict.

"Jiakai, is something the matter?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked.

"Mom, I'd like you and Dad to take me to school together, is that okay?" Zhou Jiakai asked.

“I can. Bingchen, what about you?” Zhao Zhenzhu glanced at Zhou Bingchen.

“I can too,” Zhou Bingchen nodded and said.

"Dad, can you wear your military uniform later?" Zhou Jiakai mustered his courage and asked.

"Why is Dad wearing a military uniform? Zhou Jiakai, are you hiding something from us?" Zhao Zhenzhu's face darkened.

"Mom, I... I just wanted everyone to see Dad in his military uniform," Zhou Jiakai said softly, head down.

"Jiakai, are you trying to show off to your friends that you have a father who's a military officer? You can't be so vain!" Zhao Zhenzhu advised.

"No, Mom, they said I'm a braggart, they said I'm a liar," Zhou Jiakai cried.

Even elementary school students have a hierarchy of contempt.

Those with good grades look down on those with poor grades; those living in towns look down on those living in the countryside; those whose parents have jobs look down on those whose parents farm...

Zhou Jiakai was a transfer student.

When Zhou Jiakai first entered the school, he was unaware that there was a hierarchy of contempt among his classmates.

When his classmates asked him where he lived, Zhou Jiakai honestly said that he was from Zhoujia Village. His mother was a farmer, his father was a soldier, and his grandmother and uncles were all farmers.

Zhou Jiakai has good grades and is handsome.

The girls in the class were happy to talk to Zhou Jiakai.

A few boys were unconvinced. They deliberately brought up Zhou Jiakai's rural background, saying that Zhou Jiakai's father wasn't a soldier and that Zhou Jiakai was just bragging.

Zhou Jiakai was very upset.

Taking advantage of Zhou Bingchen's return home, Zhou Jiakai wanted Zhou Bingchen to show up at the school gate in his military uniform.

Those classmates who attacked him for "bragging" should be able to shut up from now on.

“Son, you did the right thing. We’ll use facts to defeat the rumors.” After affirming Zhou Jiakai’s actions, Zhao Zhenzhu turned to Zhou Bingchen and instructed him, “Bingchen, hurry up and change your clothes. We’ll take our son to school together later.”

Zhao Zhenzhu had to support her son today.

"Okay," Zhou Bingchen replied with a smile and went back to his room to change his clothes.

Zhou Bingchen was overjoyed to go with Zhao Zhenzhu to take their son to school.

"Pearl, did you tell Bingchen about making money? I saw him smiling non-stop this morning," Wu Meiyun secretly asked Zhao Pearl.

All morning, Zhou Bingchen's smile never faded; he was either smiling at Zhao Zhenzhu or at the two children.

It looks a bit silly.

Wu Meiyun thought Zhou Bingchen was shocked by how fast Zhao Zhenzhu was making money.

You should know that when Zhao Zhenzhu secretly told Wu Meiyun yesterday that she had earned more than a thousand yuan selling hair ties in the county town, Wu Meiyun was stunned for a while before she came to her senses.

“No, I don’t want to tell him. Mom, don’t tell anyone about me making money, except Dad,” Zhao Zhenzhu instructed.

The traditional Chinese medicine used by Wu Meiyun to treat her illness was not cheap.

Zhao Zhenzhu told Wu Meiyun yesterday to reassure her about her treatment and to tell her not to worry about not having enough money.
