Born as a space beast, Shi Chu possessed a strong sense of self-preservation and was inherently selfish. She revelled in luxury, indulging in fine food and clothing. She rejected phrases like “su...
Chapter 735: My ex-husband became rich after the divorce (1)
"Mom, mom, I'm hungry..." As soon as Shi Chu regained consciousness, he heard a little girl's baby voice calling out.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a chubby little girl sitting in a baby seat, stretching her little hands towards her and frowning.
The little girl was only a little over one year old but less than two years old, at the cutest age. Her eyes were black and bright like black grapes, her little mouth was as delicate and tender as petals, and her little face was chubby, making people feel soft-hearted when they saw her.
"Mom?!" Seeing that Shi Chu didn't respond and just looked at her, the little girl suddenly shouted louder, trying to attract the adult's attention.
Shi Chu was indeed attracted to her. With the inertia of her body, she bent down and picked up the little girl, then went to get the bottle and milk powder and started to make milk for the child.
The little girl looked at it eagerly, with clear saliva flowing from the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that she was very hungry.
Shi Chu quickly made the milk, and when it reached the right temperature, he handed it to the little girl.
The little girl immediately began to drink with relish, holding the bottle tightly in both hands, and occasionally looking up at Shi Chu.
Shi Chu smiled at her, and while she was focusing on drinking milk, he began to receive the original owner's memories.
The original owner, Jiang Shichu, was a full-time mother. She quit her job after she became pregnant and has been taking care of the child at home since the child was born.
The original owner's husband, Song Qikun, was a programmer with a decent income, but he was always very busy, the legendary 996. He had to work overtime until late every day and had no time to share family responsibilities. All the things at home fell on the original owner, and Song Qikun just came back to sleep every day and treated his home like a hotel.
The original owner had some symptoms of postpartum depression. Not only could her husband not help her vent her emotions and relieve her mental stress, he was also unable to share the responsibilities of taking care of the children and housework. The original owner was a widow-style parent, so she became more and more depressed. In the end, she couldn't help but quarrel with her husband, complaining that he couldn't help at all and was neither a qualified husband nor a qualified father.
Song Qikun worked overtime in the company every day and was exhausted. After work, his wife would quarrel with him. He was exhausted both physically and mentally. He felt that his wife did not understand him and was becoming more and more unreasonable.
The two blamed each other, their feelings were worn out in quarrels, and finally they got divorced.
The child stays with Jiang Shichu, and Song Qikun pays child support.
If it weren't for what happened afterwards, they would have been just an ordinary couple getting divorced like millions of others, nothing special.
However, not long after Song Qikun's divorce, he suddenly received a huge inheritance.
It turned out that he was the abandoned child of a tycoon who was on the domestic rich list. Before he died, the tycoon felt very guilty for not recognizing him, so he compensated him more in the distribution of his inheritance.
So Song Qikun, who grew up in a single-parent family, got rich unexpectedly and became rich overnight.
His fortune did not stop there. His company went public, and he held a portion of the company's original shares for technical reasons. After the company went public, those shares immediately skyrocketed, and his personal net worth also soared, making him a newly wealthy man.
Knowing that her ex-husband became rich after the divorce, the original owner was very unwilling and felt that she had divorced too early. If she had delayed the divorce, Song Qikun would have to give her half of the property, which was also a astronomical figure, and she could live a worry-free life for the rest of her life.
But after the divorce, no matter how rich Song Qikun was, it was none of her business. Thinking about how she had missed out on a huge amount of money, the original owner felt very sympathetic.
She felt that she had accompanied Song Qikun through the low point of his life, shared the good and bad times, and gave birth to a child for him. Even if she had no credit, she had worked hard, so she should also have a share of Song Qikun's money.
Song Qikun was not stingy and actually paid the original owner a large sum of money. However, that amount of money was just a drop in the bucket compared to his family property, and the original owner spent the rest of his life feeling resentful for this.
Before her death, the original owner regretted that she should not have divorced so early, and she had to give Song Qikun half of his property.
When Shi Chu knew the original owner's last wish, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
It was understandable that the original owner was unwilling to give in. After all, it was such a huge sum of money. As an ordinary person, who could watch this money slip away without feeling pain?
But Song Qikun did nothing wrong. After all, he got the money after the divorce. In addition to the original shares of the company, some of it should be given to the original owner. So didn't Song Qikun compensate the original owner with more money later?
When Shi Chu traveled through time, the original owner had not yet divorced Song Qikun, but they had been quarreling frequently and their relationship had deteriorated. Song Qikun even wanted to live in the company after working overtime.
"Mom!" The little girl had finished her milk, so she handed the bottle to Jiang Shichu, looking at her with sparkling eyes, as if to say, "I've finished my milk, isn't it great?"
Jiang Shichu took the bottle and praised her with a smile: "Baby, you are great! You can finish the milk obediently."
The little girl has a very nice name, Song Fu. She is very cute and fair, with a delicate and graceful figure. Her smile can melt people's hearts.
"Mommy, give me a hug..." Little Song Fu stretched out her hand and asked Jiang Shichu to hug her.
"You are such a spoiled little girl." Jiang Shichu picked her up with a smile and kissed her cheek hard.
Little Song Fu immediately started giggling, and used her little mouth like a piglet to push towards Jiang Shichu's face, covering her face with saliva.
After the mother and daughter played for a while, Song Fu began to feel sleepy and her eyelids were about to close. However, she was unwilling to fall asleep. She closed her eyes and then opened them suddenly, wanting to play with her mother.
Jiang Shichu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly coaxed her, "Go to sleep, mom will stay here with you and won't go anywhere."
Song Fu was relieved and fell asleep immediately.
It's already noon, no wonder Song Fu fell asleep after drinking milk.
However, the original owner had not eaten yet. The rice was cooked, but the dishes had not been started.
Jiang Shichu didn't plan to cook it herself, so she ordered takeout.
After the original owner became a housewife, she cooked three meals a day by herself. In addition, she also had to clean, do laundry, and take care of the children. She was busy every day and made herself exhausted.
Now that Shi Chu is here, she is not a virtuous and capable housewife. She doesn't want to cook for herself if she can order takeout.
After dinner it was time for the original owner to clean. He had to kneel down to mop the floor, and after mopping he couldn't even straighten his back.
Shi Chu didn't understand why the original owner wanted to suffer like this? Song Qikun's salary was high, and he could afford to hire a part-time worker to do the housework.
The original owner insisted on doing it himself. Was it to show his contribution to the family? Wasn't it tiring?
Anyway, Shi Chu felt tired, so she readily found a part-time worker to help.
