Chapter 1 Farce



"Who do you think you are? You're nothing after the divorce!"

"Can you live without me?"

"Jiang Tong, you're twenty-eight, not eighteen. After the divorce, who do you think would want a haggard old woman like you?"

Across the table sat her husband, a calm and reliable man who was explaining the situation to her in a seemingly reasonable manner.

Jiang Tong and he had been together since high school, and they survived four years of long-distance relationship during college, but they couldn't survive four years of marriage.

Xu Huaiyuan has maintained himself quite well over the years. Although he has gained some weight compared to his younger days, he is still very handsome. Now he wears a suit and a luxury watch. She has been with him all the way from nothing to something.

But now, Jiang Tong has become the "unwanted, haggard woman" that no one wants, as he puts it.

Through the glass wine cabinet opposite the dining table, she saw her disheveled appearance. Having spent years doing housework at home, her loosely tied low ponytail was messy, her face was sallow, her eyes were lifeless, and she had dark circles under her eyes.

Life as a housewife is too hard.

What's more, her husband was also having an affair.

Jiang Tong pushed the things in her hand directly over. The photos were intimate pictures of him with other women, not just one, and there were also screenshots of his chat history with women he had hooked up with during college. Ironically, these things were actually compiled for her by his mistresses from his four years of college.

Xu Huaiyuan was speechless after seeing the evidence. His pupils trembled slightly, and he placed his hands together on the table in a defensive posture.

He panicked.

Jiang Tong is really tired. She's also exhausted from arguing with her mother-in-law about having a second child lately.

"Let's get a divorce. They're already waiting to take over, it wouldn't be right for me not to step down."

Xu Huaiyuan jumped up and down like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on. He frowned and said, "Which man doesn't cheat? You need to accept this fact."

He said, "These other people are just playing around. I didn't mean to hurt you. You're my only wife. Don't worry, I'll handle the other people..."

"Smack—"

Xu Huaiyuan was jolted to the side by the blow, his handsome face immediately swelling and turning red. He looked up at Jiang Tong in disbelief, seemingly unable to believe that she would actually hit someone!

Jiang Tong stared coldly at him, her palms burning, but her heart remained completely unmoved, suggesting that their marriage had long since fallen apart.

"I advise you not to make things too ugly. Choose one. One, I will file for divorce. Two, we will separate amicably. But in any case, you will not be shortchanged on any compensation you owe me. The divorce agreement is below the photo, sign it quickly."

If it weren't for her daughter in the bedroom, she would have torn him to shreds on the spot.

A spark of fire finally ignited in Jiang Tong's eyes, and her features sharpened.

Xu Huaiyuan had never seen this side of Jiang Tong before. She had always been gentle and considerate. He was stunned by the slap and subconsciously frowned.

Jiang Tong didn't want to scare the child.

Unexpectedly, someone was willing to participate.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps echoed down the hallway. The door was suddenly pushed open and slammed against the wall with a loud thud. An old man and a young girl appeared, and three-and-a-half-year-old Peipei rushed over and started hitting Jiang Tong.

"Bad mom! Stinky mom! I hate you the most! I'm going to get Dad to kick you out!"

Jiang Tong felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at her daughter. Some children are born devils. She had twin daughters; the elder daughter's nickname was Hanhan, and the younger daughter's nickname was Peipei.

The eldest daughter is quiet and doesn't move around much, while the younger daughter has been mischievous since she was little. Because the younger daughter has a sweeter tongue, the family always favors the younger one.

Even her husband spoiled their little daughter rotten, and she would boast to Jiang Tong every day that her father would always love her the most.

She is not usually close to Jiang Tong, but is closer to her grandparents.

Jiang Tong had no chance to discipline her, and ended up having a nemesis. Some time ago, she pushed her sister down the stairs, which made her extremely disappointed in her. Even so, her in-laws still protected her.

As she felt heartbroken, her eldest daughter suddenly ran out of the room, shoved her younger daughter aside, and protected her mother.

When Jiang Tong saw Hanhan, she immediately squatted down and touched her head. The child still had a fever, and although she didn't want to wake her, she still hurt her.

Peipei, spoiled rotten, was pushed away by her older sister after hitting her mother. Instead, she started crying loudly at her grandmother behind her, throwing a tantrum, yelling, "Bad mommy! Bad sistermy! Grandma, give me a different mommy!"

The most formidable person in this family, her mother-in-law Wang Chungui, was the most troublesome. Sure enough, she saw the things on the table, ignoring the other photos and chat logs, and only saw the divorce agreement.

She immediately started slapping her thigh and yelling, wailing, "Hey! You heartless, black-hearted woman, if you want a divorce, get out of here right now! Don't be a useless piece of trash who can't produce a son! You've been married into the Xu family for so long, and you can't even have a son, yet you still have the nerve to ask for a divorce?! You want a share of the family property? Dream on!"

Wang Chungui tried to fight Jiang Tong, but Jiang Tong slapped her hard, stunning her and causing her to go berserk.

"Hanhan, go to Mommy's room and get your bag. Mommy will take you there first!"

The eldest daughter was just quiet and didn't like to talk, but she wasn't stupid; she immediately ran to her room.

Xu Huaiyuan was also dumbfounded. He called out to his eldest daughter, "Hanhan, don't go!"

But Hanhan wouldn't listen to him at all.

Jiang Tong and her mother-in-law settled both old and new scores, and a fight broke out!

When the eldest daughter came out.

She shoved Wang Chungui toward Xu Huaiyuan, then picked up Hanhan and said coldly, "See you at the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow morning. The full amount in the divorce agreement must be transferred to my account! Otherwise, Xu Huaiyuan, I know better than you what kind of person you are in private!"
