"He wanted to leave on his own, and my mother and I couldn't stop him."
Ren Zijie turned around and went to the kitchen.
He took out a rolling pin and lashed it twice at Ren Ziqi.
Ren Ziqi cried out in pain twice.
"Ah!! Ah!!! Brother, I'm your own sister."
Ren Zijie shouted angrily as he chased her away, "Get out! I, Ren Zijie, don't have a shameless sister like you. Bringing men home is one thing, but messing around in my bed is another."
The man hadn't had time to put on his clothes, and Ren Ziqi was disheveled.
Just after kicking the person out, they ran into Mrs. Ren and the upstairs neighbor.
"Zijie, you're back. What happened?"
Ren Zijie looked at her with a hostile expression. "Your good daughter brought a man home and slept with him, right in my bed."
Ren's mother's expression changed, and she looked at the people behind her and said loudly, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? Is it that slut Zheng Yan who's found some other man outside?"
Ren Ziqi immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, it must be your wife."
Ren Zijie slapped him across the face, saying, "You caught my wife cheating on me in bed, and you still want to slander her? You're simply unrepentant."
Ren's mother immediately started wailing, and Ren Zijie roared, "Mom!!!"
Ren Zijie turned to look at her, "You used to care about your brother and say that you and Dad had a hard time. I understand you. Yan Yan and I have worked hard to get to where we are now. We have our current life entirely because of our own efforts. You come here and say you want to take our house. I will take it because you are my mother and gave birth to me. If you can't even tolerate my wife, then I can't tolerate you either."
"Now all of you get out of my house. I'll sell my house in Beijing and donate the money; I won't give it to you."
Ren's mother was about to cry again when Ren Zijie interrupted her, "Go ahead and cry and make a scene. I won't care anymore. I'll send you and Dad 500 yuan every month. You can take it or leave it."
After saying that, Ren Zijie turned around and went back into the house. Looking at the messy house, Ren Zijie picked up his luggage and left.
He roughly knew where his wife had gone. It was her fault for letting his mother and sister bully his wife. He shouldn't have left like that, and he shouldn't have let his mother move in.
Ren Zijie wasn't unaware of this, but he felt that since his parents had raised him, he couldn't abandon them now that he was capable of doing so.
When they arrived at the Lu family's house, Ren Zijie knocked on the door, looking exhausted.
The aunt saw it was him and took him inside immediately.
The Lu family was preparing to eat when Zheng Yan led her four children toward the dining room.
When Zheng Yan saw her aunt bring Ren Zijie in, her face immediately fell.
When the two children saw Ren Zijie, they excitedly called him "Dad," but halfway there they seemed to remember something.
Hao Hao immediately stopped and shouted, "I'm not going back! Grandma bullied my sister, wouldn't let us eat meat, and even scolded Mom. You're all bad people. I won't kick you out. I'll stay here with Aunt Lin."
Ren Zijie felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He looked at Zheng Yan, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Lin Wanwan came over to smooth things over.
"Let's eat first since you're here. The kids were just saying they were hungry. Let's eat."
Lin Wanwan patted Zheng Yan on the shoulder and said, "Let's go."
Zheng Yan nodded and took the child to the dining room.
Ren Zijie stood there, and Lin Wanwan sighed and walked over, saying, "Try to coax her. Yanyan still has deep feelings for you."
Ren Zijie nodded and followed them to the dining room.
Aside from casual conversation, nothing else was said at the dinner table.
After dinner, Lin Wanwan said to Ren Zijie, "Stay here tonight. Yanyan thinks you can handle this, which is why she's been holding back. Handle it well and don't disappoint Yanyan. She cried for a long time when she came."
"I'll handle it."
Lin Wanwan didn't say anything more. "Then I'm leaving. You all have a good chat."
When Lu Feng saw her return, he asked, "Aren't you going to help?"
"What should the couple do? Let them handle it themselves."
Lu Feng smiled and said, "Go wash up and go to bed."
After Lin Wanwan finished washing up and came back, she couldn't help but sigh, "It's a good thing I didn't meet such a wicked mother-in-law, otherwise I would definitely go crazy with my personality."
"It's hard to say. If Zijie had been more assertive, none of those things would have happened."
"Never mind, go to sleep. We have to go to work tomorrow. We shouldn't meddle in other people's business."
Lu Feng put his arm around her and laughed, "You haven't been involved enough?"
"Don't talk nonsense. If you were Brother Ren, what would you do?"
"Of course, the children and wife are more important. As long as the family provides the money, that's fine. Just be firm and send them away."
Lin Wanwan nodded, "Luckily, I met the best mother-in-law in the world."
The next morning, Zheng Yan pulled Lin Wanwan aside and told her what had happened the night before.
“I’ve discussed it with Zijie, and we’re not going back to that house for the time being. It’s disgusting to look at. We’ll move back to this yard and renovate it.”
"Okay, then you can stay here. The yard needs to be tidied up again."
Zheng Yan tugged at Lin Wanwan and said sweetly, "Thank you so much, Wanwan. Our family is always troubling you."
Lin Wanwan looked at her strangely, "You're talking nonsense. As long as you two are alright, that's all that matters. Your mother-in-law has been taken care of, right?"
Zheng Yan said calmly, "Well, Zijie went out early this morning, saying he would take them home and wouldn't give them a single penny if they didn't go back. He knows he didn't do a good job this time. Anyway, I've figured it out now. I'm a lawyer, and I will use the law to protect myself if necessary. As for those people, they don't treat me like family, and I won't either. They are his parents. If he can't handle it, he can just get a divorce. I'm so young, it doesn't matter how I live."
Seeing her like this, Lin Wanwan said, "It's good that you've figured it out. Don't keep talking about divorce. It's not like you two have no feelings for each other anymore."
Zheng Yan shrugged. "Even the best feelings get worn down by all this nonsense. Some things can't be resolved by forcing yourself to be wronged."
Looking at the time, Zheng Yan urged her to eat, "Hurry up and eat, then go to work."
"Okay, okay, now you're telling me what to do."
Lin Wanwan drove to work after finishing her meal.
When Lin Wanwan arrived at her workplace, she noticed that the atmosphere in the office was a bit strange.
She leaned over to the next table and whispered, "What happened?"
At the next table was a girl who had come in a year earlier than Lin Wanwan. Upon seeing her, she leaned closer to Lin Wanwan with a gossipy look and whispered something.
"You don't know?"
"What do I know?"
"Gossip about you."
Lin Wanwan suddenly felt bored. "Am I not transparent in our company? What gossip could I possibly have that you don't know?"
"This time is different."
"Oh? What's different?" Lin Wanwan perked up again.
Li Zimu looked at her speechlessly, "This is gossip about you, why are you still so interested?"
"Well, I'm also curious about how you guys spread gossip about me."
"You wouldn't expect who's spreading this gossip."
Lin Wanwan was immediately intrigued. "Who is it?"
