She always spoke like this, with barbs in her voice. Suppressing her anger, Sun Liqin said, "Come to my parents' house tomorrow, and we'll get a divorce by mutual agreement."

"Oh, what trick are you playing now?" The man didn't believe him at all. "Let me tell you the truth, I don't want to be with you anymore."

Damn vampires, once you're hooked, you can't get rid of them.

He's used his wife's sweet talk to lure him back home countless times over the years.

At first, the man was still trying to save face for her.

But later, he realized that he didn't need to save face with this woman at all. Even after hitting and scolding her, she still had to give in and persuade him to go back.

After a few times, the man stopped wanting to play along.

"Don't try any tricks. You're a dog, don't you admit it?"

The man deliberately provoked her, saying, "If you go back and hug me to persuade me again, I'll really look down on you."

Have some self-respect; there's no point in saying anything more now that things have come to this.

Sun Liqin lowered her voice, "Divorce, this time it's definitely over."

A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan; let's get them back first.

"Well, I didn't realize you'd found someone else for your slut?" The man's words were so unfiltered that they had reached the point of mutual loathing.

If he had said that normally, Sun Liqin would have been furious and started arguing back.

But not now, she has to endure it.

After agreeing on a meeting time, the man tossed the phone onto the bedside table, and the pretty girl next to him snuggled into his arms.

He cautiously inquired, "Is it your wife?"

"Hmm." The man lowered his head and took a drag on his cigarette. The woman, sensing his urge, lit it and then pressed, "What did she want on the phone?"

It's said that the tigress was both fierce and ugly, and the boss had long since lost all affection for her.

She had overheard a lot of the phone call earlier, and while she felt secretly pleased, she asked, "Are you really getting a divorce? What about the children?"

A man and a woman, both quite pretty.

Previously, when the big boss drove over with his grandson and granddaughter, all the factory leaders went to curry favor with those two kids.

I went there myself and took a look; it was indeed delightful.

The man clicked his tongue, propped himself up on the arm that had been lying on the bed, and sat up. "That crazy woman is up to her tricks again. She'd rather die than divorce me."

He spoke only half-truths, not wanting to give women false hope.

"Huh? But how can she be a mother like that?" The woman straightened her proud figure and said, "She has no education at all, all she knows is to waste money, and she doesn't even give you any face."

Hearing this, the man felt annoyed.

That makes sense, but what's it to you?

He doesn't need anyone to agree with him, at least not now.

When is it needed?

When young girls are clinging to him, he plays the victim, pleading for their sympathy and giving them a glimmer of hope, thus luring them into bed.

Now that we've already slept together, what more hope do we need?

The man was still afraid that the woman would come and make demands, so he had to use Sun Liqin as a shield again.

"You saw it last time, didn't you? She was so fierce, like she was going to kill someone. She threatened to commit suicide if we got a divorce. I wouldn't dare to get a divorce!"

"She's amazing. Look at the scars she left on me last time."

As he spoke, the man stubbed out his cigarette, turned over, and leaned closer to show the woman the scar on her face.

Sure enough, I heard the woman's distressed voice again, "You're so pitiful!"

"I'm being entangled with a woman like that! I can't even get a divorce!"

Overcome by compassion, the woman felt that the man she was being intimate with was completely innocent.

"I wish I could help you."

With a long sigh, the man said resentfully, "You can't help with that, but there's something you can do for me now—"

Just as the woman was about to ask what was going on, the blanket was pulled back over her head, and the man, having finished his cigarette, began the next round of the game.

Help me my ass!

After a long while, looking at the woman in his arms with rosy cheeks and full of love, the man thought, "I don't need anyone to help me."

It's called helping, but it's actually part of the next round of tactics.

He had suffered this loss at Sun Liqin's hands before—

He claimed he was helping her get rid of the original wife, but in reality, it was for his own advancement.

Last time, she was trapped in a scheme for six years, dating for two years, and then completely ensnared after having a child.

He didn't want to get trapped again.

People who go out without a partner are more popular than those who have a partner.

If he gets divorced, he can fool even more young girls—

As he spoke, the man glanced at his sleeping secretary, who seemed quite content.

She used to be a factory worker, naive and inexperienced, and followed him wholeheartedly, making her easy to fool.

But what about the others?

"So I still want a divorce," the man thought. "After the divorce, he can do whatever he wants, and then I can create the image of a single, rich, stay-at-home dad."

There will definitely be a lot of girls rushing towards him.

Immersed in his vision of the future, the man felt incredibly relaxed and happy.

In a state of extreme relaxation, I fell asleep not long afterward.

...

In the afternoon, Zhou Yunshi still drove home with his daughter.

Zhou Xinya had already collected a stack of red envelopes, too big for her little hands to hold. She had a red shoulder bag on her back and asked her father, "Put them in and keep them safe for me."

The children's crossbody bag has a flap design with a cute little panda holding green bamboo on the front, looking adorable.

Zhou Xinya liked it very much; it was a New Year's gift from Du Yuheng.

"And what about you?" Zhou Yunshi asked casually to his daughter along the way. "What gift did you prepare for them?"

"Hehe," the little girl smiled with narrowed eyes, trying to slyly get away with it.

"I don't need a gift," Du Yuheng said, not asking her for one. He simply asked, "How about we go home together after school from now on?"
