Chang Huaying reached out and tugged at Chen Zhaodi's clothes, whispering, "Mom, don't be soft-hearted. If you are, we'll be kicked out!"
Husband, children, house... and money, all for a new mistress!
Chen Zhaodi gasped, "Divorce! You're a coward if you don't!"
Chang Huaying stood to the side with her mouth agape; it seemed like this was the first time her mother had ever reacted like this…
She looks like my second aunt!
That's right, those were the lines my second aunt had prepared.
A look of surprise flashed across Chang Hongbing's face. In his opinion, Chen Zhaodi should be more afraid of divorce than anyone else.
To be honest, he never thought about divorce, but he was so angry after reading the letter that he said something without thinking.
He wasn't afraid of being too ashamed to make amends afterward, because he was certain that Chen Zhaodi wouldn't dare to divorce him.
When Chen Zhaodi saw that Chang Hongbing reacted exactly as Zhou Hongyu had predicted, she couldn't help but secretly chuckle to herself. She didn't need to get a divorce!
Chen Zhaodi's lips curled up: "When are we getting a divorce tomorrow? Give me a precise time, and I guarantee I'll make sure you get what you want tomorrow!"
Chang Hongbing's face was unusually grim. Who taught him to say these things?
Chen Zhaodi couldn't say it at all!
There are bad people causing trouble!
Seeing that things were getting more and more serious, his coworkers started to persuade him one after another, and Chang Hongbing found a way to back down.
Chang Hongbing: "I can tell you're very emotionally unstable. Let's talk about it later!"
He planned to avoid Chen Zhaodi for the next few months, since Chen Zhaodi had a bad memory anyway. He would wait until Chen Zhaodi forgot about the matter before going back.
Chen Zhaodi wanted to hear that!
Chen Zhaodi was about to agree immediately, but Chang Huaying frantically shook one of her arms.
"mom……"
Follow the script!
Chen Zhaodi quickly snapped out of her daze, adopting a mysterious expression: "Divorce! How can we postpone it again and delay your work!"
Zhou Hongyu said, "We absolutely cannot let this slide, or we'll suffer the consequences later."
If anything happens in the future, Chang Hongbing will bring it up again to cause trouble. The most important thing is to take Chang Hongbing down in this conflict!
This will ensure he never dares to use divorce as a threat again!
Chang Hongbing panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed himself down when he saw the others present. He couldn't afford to lose face here!
"Great! Let's get divorced tomorrow!"
Chen Zhaodi gritted her teeth: "Fine, let's get a divorce tomorrow. You hurry up and go to your boss to submit a report, so you don't have another excuse tomorrow!"
Chang Hongbing was furious upon hearing this and turned around to go to his superiors to file a divorce report.
His coworkers each held him down by one arm.
“Deputy Director Chang, your wife has been married into this family for over twenty years, raised children, and taken care of the elderly. You absolutely cannot do this! This marriage cannot be dissolved!”
Chang Hongbing stopped in his tracks and looked at Chen Zhaodi with a self-righteous expression: "It's not that I don't want a divorce, I also have to consider this family!"
That means we won't separate!
Chen Zhaodi wanted to clap her hands in delight right then and there.
Chang Huaying sighed silently; her mother could only act out half of her second aunt's script, as expected.
Chen Zhaodi: "We can stay together, but I'm asking you, what did you say about that matter?"
The matter of reducing Chang Yaozu's living expenses.
Chang Yaozu wrote back to complain, which almost led to Chang Hongbing and his wife getting divorced.
Chang Hongbing paused, still unable to contain his anger when the topic came up, but the situation was beyond his control. No matter how angry he was, it was useless. Chen Zhaodi was no longer afraid of divorcing him!
Chang Hongbing suppressed his anger and said, "I won't pursue this further!"
Yay!
Chen Zhaodi couldn't wait to nod in agreement.
Chang Huaying grabbed her clothes for the third time and sighed again, "Mom..."
Follow the script!
Chen Zhaodi suppressed the urge to agree immediately and continued, "You're saying you won't pursue this? Then I've just put up with your temper for nothing, and you've even threatened me with divorce. I've been married into this family for over twenty years, and I've certainly put in a lot of hard work, even if I haven't done anything particularly good. You heartless bastard..."
As she was talking, Chen Zhaodi suddenly felt inspired and performed exceptionally well.
Chen Zhaodi still felt it wasn't enough!
Chang Hongbing's face darkened slightly, and he demanded, "Then what do you want?"
We've finally reached this point!
Chen Zhaodi read out the lines Zhou Hongyu had prepared for her: "First, you must sincerely apologize to me for this. Second, I will take care of our son's living expenses, and you are not allowed to interfere. Finally, you must promise that you will never use divorce as a threat again if anything happens in the future!"
After saying that.
His coworkers stood by, urging Chang Hongbing to agree as soon as possible.
"Deputy Director Chang, your sister-in-law is right. Don't act impulsively. Harmony in the family brings prosperity!"
...
Chang Hongbing was so angry he almost vomited blood. When did the saying "harmony in the family brings prosperity" ever apply to him?
He's not like Chen Zhaodi or Zhou Hongyu—those kinds of difficult characters. He's filial to his parents, loves his work, and is a decent person.
Chang Hongbing was put on the hot seat and finally reluctantly agreed to all sorts of outrageous demands made by Chen Zhaodi.
Chen Zhaodi smiled happily, while Chang Huaying gently shook her head.
Hopefully, this kind of thing will happen less often in the future; it's too much of a hassle!
Zhou Hongyu chuckled at this, saying that once Chang Yaozu's wife entered the family, such incidents would be inevitable!
Moreover, it has escalated further, and this was only the lowest intensity of the outbreak.
Zhou Hongyu thought very immorally that although Chen Zhaodi only had one daughter-in-law, that one daughter-in-law was worth more than thousands of other people's daughters-in-law.
*
Chen Zhaodi returned victorious and ran to the store triumphantly to show off her achievements to everyone.
After waiting for her to finish showing off, Zhou Hongyu raised an eyebrow and extended her hand.
"Where's the letter?"
It was agreed that we would get our hands on the letter that Chang Yaozu sent back, and then verify whether the letter was written by Chang Yaozu.
The joy on Chen Zhaodi's face faded considerably, and Zhou Hongyu immediately realized that she had completely forgotten something more crucial.
Zhou Hongyu chuckled and patted her shoulder: "It's alright, I'll definitely give you a big red envelope when you get married for the second time!"
Chen Zhaodi turned pale with fright. A second marriage? Chang Hongbing had already promised her that he would never use divorce as a threat again!
Chen Zhaodi: "There shouldn't be a divorce anymore. Hongbing promised me that no matter what happens in the future, he will never use divorce as a threat again!"
Zhou Hongyu smiled and shrugged: "You believe it? Then I believe it too!"
Chang Hongbing can be trusted for now.
But don't forget that Chen Zhaodi also has a future daughter-in-law who is a master of domestic power struggles.
Zhou Hongyu even suspected that Chang Hongbing's divorce was orchestrated by Chen Zhaodi, his daughter-in-law who had yet to be seen.
It's terrifying to think about; I almost got taken down before I even saw the person.
Chen Zhaodi began to lose confidence as she spoke. Nine out of ten of Zhou Hongyu's words had come true, and the remaining one was almost right as well.
At this moment, Chang Huaying rushed over: "Mom, Second Aunt, I went to find Dad and got the letter that my eldest brother sent back!"
"Huaying!" Chen Zhaodi excitedly hugged her daughter; her daughter was too capable.
The three of them began to examine the letter that Chang Yaozu had sent back...
