Chapter 105 The Untamed Wolf
"Ever since I came to this house, I have been working tirelessly to serve you and Yanyan. I treat Yanyan as my own daughter. I treat her better than Xiaoxue."
Jiang Anrong kept talking about how hard she had worked over the years and how much she had sacrificed for this family. The more she listened, the more annoyed Zhao Kang became. She had sacrificed a lot for this family, but she had also enjoyed the benefits it had brought her.
If it weren't for him, how could she, a woman with a child, have such a stable life now? It would be meaningless to say it too clearly. Anyway, this marriage must be divorced.
Zhao Xue was capable of killing someone this time, but what about next time? What if she gets upset and attacks Yanyan? She stole the marriage last time, and that was it. Just like her daughter said, if a man can be snatched away, it means he is not a good match for her.
But this time she actually did such a vicious thing. If they don't divorce, firstly, she might harm his daughter in the future, and secondly, if she does such a thing again, he will have to clean up the mess.
He really couldn't understand how a well-behaved and obedient child like this could become like this?
"Don't say such things. You know whether you and your daughter have lived well these years." Zhao Kang had made up his mind and said calmly:
"Last time, Yanyan went on a blind date with Zhuang Xueming, and she sweet-talked her into going with him. But Yanyan left for a while during the blind date, and Zhuang Xueming changed his mind and decided to get engaged to her. What did you say afterwards? You said that was the last time, and if she makes a mistake again, I'll take care of it, right? My decision was to divorce you, and you can take her wherever you want. You and I will have nothing to do with each other from now on."
Zhao Kang spoke calmly but resolutely. Jiang Anrong sat on the ground, sobbing. Zhao Kang ignored her and prepared to go to the Tong family to apologize. This mess still had to be fixed by him.
At this time, Zhao Xue came out of the house. She looked at Zhao Kang and said, "You always say that you treat me as your own daughter, but ask yourself, do you treat me the same as Zhao Jiayan? Yes, you didn't treat me badly materially, but what about me emotionally? When Zhao Jiayan cried as a child, you hugged her and comforted her. But when I cried, you just said, 'Stop crying and let your mother make you something delicious.'"
Zhao Kang wanted to curse. When he married Jiang Anrong, Zhao Xue was already eight years old. He was her stepfather, not her biological child. How could he hold her and comfort her?
It’s impossible to reason with people who have incorrect values.
"You always say I'm the same as Zhao Jiayan," Zhao Xue continued, "Why did Zhuang Xueming introduce her to Zhao Jiayan instead of me? If Zhao Jiayan was the one who did this, would you just abandon her?"
"Yan Yan would never do such a vicious thing!" Zhao Kang was so angry that he was fuming. He didn't expect that after raising such an ungrateful person for so many years, he would end up raising such an ungrateful person.
"Yes, I am vicious. If you don't support me, what should I do if I don't fight for it?" Zhao Xue shouted at Zhao Kang. If Zhao Kang was her biological father, she would be able to be like Zhao Jiayan and not fight for it, because Zhao Kang would take the initiative to bring good things to Zhao Jiayan.
"Divorce, this marriage is finalized." Zhao Kang looked at Jiang Anrong and said, "Don't say that military marriages are difficult to divorce. With what your daughter did this time, the divorce will be approved quickly."
The higher-ups would not allow such unstable factors to appear in his family.
"Can you let Xiaoxue move out without getting a divorce?" Jiang Anrong grabbed Zhao Kang's arm and begged.
Zhao Kang shook her off and went out to the Tong family to apologize. It would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for Jiang Anrong after living with her for so many years, but Zhao Xue was too dangerous. If he was not careful, his family and future might be ruined by her. After Zhao Kang left, Jiang Anrong looked at Zhao Xue with bloodshot eyes, "You are acting like a spoiled child! Keep acting like a spoiled child! What sin did I commit to give birth to a daughter like you? Now, we both have to go back to the village. Your grandmother asked about your marriage some time ago. Go back to the village and let her introduce you to someone."
Jiang Anrong and Zhao Kang were from the same village. One of them lost his wife, while the other lost her husband. They were arranged to marry each other. Jiang Anrong knew that Zhao Kang could find someone better than her, so she married her because she knew her background well and that her daughter would not be abused.
So after getting married, she carefully tried to please Zhao Kang's daughter, Zhao Jiayan. Fortunately, Zhao Jiayan was sensible and, although not particularly close to her, she didn't give her any trouble. However, her daughter, Zhao Xue, started to compete with Zhao Jiayan in every way since she entered the family, but she was always defeated.
Fortunately, Zhao Xue knew that they were living under someone else's roof, so even though she felt frustrated because she couldn't compete with Zhao Jiayan, she didn't dare show it. Their family had lived happily together for so many years.
What she hadn't expected was that Zhao Xue had the audacity to snatch Zhao Jiayan's marriage. After the incident came to light, she was practically terrified. Fortunately, Zhao Jiayan was a proud person, believing that Zhuang Xueming's being snatched away meant he wasn't a good match for her, so she didn't take it too seriously.
But after that incident, Zhao Jiayan and Zhao Kang's attitude towards her and her daughter changed. They began to be wary of her and Zhao Xue in many things. Even if she was sad, she couldn't say anything. After all, it was Zhao Xue who made the mistake first.
It had been so long since that incident, and Zhao Xue was going to marry Zhuang Xueming soon. After they got married and moved out of this house, everything would slowly get better. She knew very well that she would still have to rely on Zhao Kang for her life.
However, she had never imagined that Zhao Xue would be so bold as to kill someone this time. Tong Lu's father was the brigade commander, and her mother, Director Luo, was also very powerful. Even if Zhao Jiayan had done this, she would have been punished.
"Pack your things, we'll be moving out soon." Jiang Anrong looked at Zhao Xue coldly and said, "You won't even be able to be called Captain Zhao's stepdaughter anymore."
Zhao Xue wiped her tears and said, "If you want to go back to the village, go ahead. I won't go back, even if I die."
Ever since Jiang Anrong married Zhao Kang, she followed him to the Lizhou Military Region and never returned to the village. She couldn't live in such an environment.
Jiang Anrong now understood that her daughter was an ungrateful person and even she, her own mother, could not tame her.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Jiang Anrong went to open it. Standing at the door was Zhuang Xueming. She stepped aside to let him in. "What's going on, Xueming?"
Zhuang Xueming looked at Zhao Xue, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, and his expression remained unchanged. He placed the engagement letter in his hand on the table and said, "I'm here to exchange it for the engagement letter."
Jiang Anrong had anticipated this outcome and went inside to retrieve Zhuang Xueming's engagement letter without saying anything. Zhao Xue sneered at Zhuang Xueming, "Zhao Jiayan is right. A man who can be snatched away isn't a good match."
Zhuang Xueming frowned when he heard her words. At this time, Jiang Anrong took out his engagement letter. He took the engagement letter and turned around and left without saying a word.
When he was going downstairs, he met Zhao Jiayan who was going upstairs. He wanted to say hello, but Zhao Jiayan didn't even look at him and just passed him by.
