Chapter 238: Tearing Face

Wen Zhirou glanced at Bai Songlin, her eyes full of indifference and coldness.

"I hope that Master will sign the divorce agreement smoothly so that we can part ways amicably. Otherwise, it will be ugly if we have a falling out."

Bai Songlin felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.

"What divorce agreement? I don't agree. If you don't tell me the truth today, I will..."

"What are you going to do? Lock me up or kill me?"

"How could you become so unreasonable?"

"You are the unreasonable one. Over the years, check your conscience and ask yourself how many immoral things you have done. I only regretted that I was not blind enough to marry someone like you."

Bai Songlin was so angry that his face turned blue and purple.

"Tell me clearly, what did I do to you?"

Wen Zhirou smiled.

"Your mother coveted one of my shops, and you told her that I had 18 other shops and two estates, and it didn't matter if she took one. Your concubine caused me to fall into the water in the middle of winter, and you didn't save me. Instead, you accused me of being stingy and not being as magnanimous as a mistress. Your two children called me mother in front of others, and behind people's backs, they kept stabbing me with needles with a rag doll, and the handwriting on the doll with my name was written by you, and you pretended to be ignorant..."

Old Madam Bai stood up quickly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is coveting your trousseau? You gave it to me yourself."

Wen Zhirou sneered.

"I gave it to you? You said that you had run out of business at your own shop and wanted to open a winery, so you borrowed my shop. But after all these years, the winery hasn't been opened, and there's no sign of you returning the shop."

Bai Songlin said while suppressing his anger.

"She is your mother-in-law, you..."

"Not any more."

Bai Songlin cleared his throat.

"I will not divorce you, Rou'er. I will never do such a stupid thing again. I have changed. Don't you want to consummate your marriage? Let's do it tonight..."

Wen Zhirou interrupted him.

"You are so nasty."

The old lady in the hall slammed the table.

"Ms. Wen, as the head of the Bo's house, you actually insulted your own husband. Do you think you are so noble? You came back from exile, your body is dirty. If Lin'er is willing to marry you, you should burn incense to thank him."

Wen Zhirou stared coldly at the old lady in the hall.

"Whether I am innocent or not is not for an old hag like you to question. But your son has been slept with by three women in turn. Bah, how dirty!"

Bai Songlin's face instantly turned colorful.

"Wen Zhirou, do you know what you are saying?"

"I know, didn't you hear it?"

Mrs. Bai felt a headache after hearing this and shouted loudly.

"Drag her away, drag her away, lock her up in the ancestral hall, and let her reflect on her mistakes."

Wen Zhirou shouted loudly.

"My elder brother is the Minister of the Secretariat, and my best friend is the Yongyi County Lord personally appointed by the Emperor. Who dares to touch me?"

Suddenly, no one on the field dared to move. Old Madam Bai's arrogance weakened a little, and even Bai Songlin's expression softened a little.

"Rou'er, be sensible. I'll give you whatever you want later..."

"Do you think your promise is worth a lot of money?"

Bai Songlin spoke in a low voice.

"Rou'er, you clearly liked me before and were willing to do anything for me?"

"You also said that, that was in the past. The previous Wen Zhirou is dead. You forced her to death. There will never be another Wen Zhirou who loves you in the future."

Wen Zhirou looked at Bai Songlin's pale and distraught face, and her heart suddenly felt refreshed.

She waved her sleeves, turned around and walked towards her yard, then suddenly thought of something and spoke again.

"Bai Songlin, remember to sign and stamp your name. From now on, we will go our separate ways and see each other again as strangers."

She returned to her own courtyard and looked back to see the moon-shaped door in the middle which was very unsightly.

"Go find someone to nail the door shut so no one can get in. Also, break through the outer wall and install a door. We might have to go in and out through that door so that we don't get upset when we see them."

The maid asked.

"Miss, aren't you going to get a divorce?"

Wen Zhirou sighed.

"They won't give up so easily. They may have to continue to struggle for a while."

He Guitang, Bai Songlin's eyes were slightly closed, but his chest was slightly heaving, his hands were clenched, and his knuckles were faintly white, it seemed that he was very angry.

Old Madam Bai slapped the table vigorously.

"How can this be possible? How can this be possible? I have been married to her for so many years, but I never thought she would have such a temper. I told you that I shouldn't have married her in the first place."

Bai Songlin said expressionlessly.

"I strongly refused at that time. Didn't you say that marrying her would help my career go smoothly?"

"But you shouldn't have ignored her these past few years, letting those so-called concubines get ahead of her. You shouldn't have not consummated your marriage with her for so many years. If you had consummated the marriage and had a child, she wouldn't have been able to leave. Now, she has great power behind her and is determined. What should you do in the future?"

Bai Songlin listened to his mother complaining about him, and he was powerless to refute.

He had always been cold to her, and would be extremely happy when he occasionally gave her some small favors. During the holidays, he would take other people out but not her, and she would forgive him if he bought her something to appease her, and then he would continue to treat her well as always.

He was used to her gentleness and obedience, and liked the look of admiration she showed when she looked at him. He didn't know when this look started to disappear from her eyes, and the light in her eyes slowly disappeared.

She no longer asked about anything he did outside. He never drank the tea she brewed again, nor wore the clothes she sewed with her own hands. He felt a little uncomfortable at first, and then gradually became panicked.

He wanted to talk to her but she closed the door and he wanted to take her to watch the fireworks but she refused. He just watched her move further and further away from him.

But he really bought her the jade hairpin today.

He had never known that she would curse him mercilessly using the words he had imagined her to use.

Outside the door, a maid reported that something had been delivered from Chu Yuyuan.

Bai Songlin took it and saw that it was a divorce letter.

He tore it up in anger.

"Wen Zhirou, forget it."

Then, he strode towards Chu Yuyuan.

When we arrived at the Moon Gate, we found it was nailed shut with crisscrossed wooden boards.

He suddenly felt dizzy.

He was almost mad at her.

"Someone, take down this door panel for me, quickly."

After finally dismantling it, I heard the servants say.

"Master, there is a wall behind."

Bai Songlin suppressed his anger and pointed weakly at the wall.

“Tear it down.”

At night, he walked into Chuyu Courtyard.

He thought that he would not divorce her if she didn't want to sleep with him and have a child, so he would fulfill her wish tonight.

He pushed open the door, and found the room deserted and empty. Everything was gone, leaving only a large black carved bed, staring at him in bewilderment.
