Chapter 163: Past Events of the Republic of China 3
Qiu Chi arrived on the day Nie Zhicheng returned.
Zhai Jiayue was looking forward to reuniting with him with great joy, but she didn't expect to be rejected by Nie Zhicheng.
Now was the time when they were waiting in the hall for Nie Zhicheng to come back.
Nie Zhicheng returned, dressed in a white suit, looking respectable. Before he could even exchange a few pleasantries, he announced loudly, "Mom and Dad, I want to divorce Zhai Jiayue and marry Fang Caiyue."
The smiles on Mr. Nie and Mrs. Nie's faces froze.
Nie Yaya gloated at Qiu Chi and stepped forward, saying, "Brother, who is Fang Caiyue? Why did you change my sister-in-law right after you came back? It's quite sudden."
Speaking of Fang Caiyue, Nie Zhicheng couldn't help but smile. "She is a classmate I met when I was studying abroad. We were from the same place and we got along well, so we got in touch. She and I are like-minded partners, and also..."
Nie Zhicheng was indulging in the sweet memories, but Master Nie interrupted him with a sullen face: "Okay, you just came back, why are you talking about this? Jiayue is still here."
Compared to Madam Nie, Mr. Nie had wanted Nie Zhicheng to take Fang Caiyue as his concubine from the beginning, so he did not specifically reprimand Nie Zhicheng, but just asked him to restrain himself in front of Zhai Jiayue.
Unfortunately, after two years abroad, Nie Zhicheng felt that he was a young man of the new society and that all feudal things had to be broken, so when he saw Qiu Chi, he did not restrain himself at all.
When he saw Qiu Chi, his eyes widened in shock. He raised his hand in disbelief and pointed at Qiu Chi's clothes. After a while, he said, "How did you become like this? This clothes, this hair, you dress more old-fashioned than my mother. It's only been two years, and you've been corrupted by feudal society. You really disappoint me!"
When Zhai Jiayue heard what Nie Zhicheng said, she was naturally stunned and didn't know how to react.
Qiu Chi didn't give him a good look and snorted coldly, "Who is responsible for this awful look? It's your mother and your sister. You know your mother doesn't even use these clothes and hair. So am I crazy to use something your mother doesn't use?"
Qiu Chi's words stunned everyone present again.
Nie Yaya was the first to come back to her senses. "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about? It's obvious that you like him. You can't push the blame on me and mother just because big brother dislikes you. That's too much."
As soon as Nie Yaya spoke, the others came back to their senses. Madam Nie also said with a gloomy face: "Yaya is right. If you didn't want to wear it yourself, how could I force you to wear it?"
Nie Zhicheng also said: "I thought you were just feudal, but I didn't expect you to shirk responsibility..."
The fact that Qiu Chi was able to say that sentence without taking action at the beginning showed that she had a good temper.
Now seeing Nie Zhicheng pointing at her and wanting to scold her, Qiu Chi threw the teacup beside her at him without saying a word.
Then he took out a whip and hit the man directly.
The hall, originally set up to welcome people, suddenly became chaotic. Master Nie shouted, "What are they doing? Hurry up, stop her! Just when someone comes back, they're already causing a mess. This is really too much!"
Madam Nie screamed, "Ah—my Zhicheng, Zhai Jiayue, you unlucky star, do you want to die? Stop it right there!"
Nie Yaya ran far away to prevent herself from being accidentally injured.
Nie Zhicheng, who was being beaten right in the middle, wanted to say something, but Qiu Chi was too strong, and all that came out of his mouth were screams of pain.
Occasionally, a few words would pop out: "Stop it! You shrew!"
Unfortunately, it had no effect except getting beaten even harder.
Qiu Chi beat the only son of the Nie family so unscrupulously that naturally many servants wanted to step forward to stop him, but they were all kicked away by Qiu Chi.
Qiu Chi didn't stop until she had had enough. She stepped on Nie Zhicheng and looked at the other three masters of the Nie family in the hall. A smile appeared on her face and she said, "Mrs. Nie, are you willing to tell the truth now? Otherwise, I wouldn't mind beating him to death on the spot."
In this story, I don’t know who the male protagonist is.
Logically speaking, he seems to be Zhai Jiayue's savior, but Nie Zhicheng has a lot of scenes in the beginning.
Qiu Chi looked down at Nie Zhicheng, wondering whether he should try to kill him to see if he was the hero.
Maybe Qiu Chi’s gaze was too scary, or maybe it was obvious that Qiu Chi really wanted to kill him.
Before Madam Nie could speak, Master Nie began to order her: "You really want your son to die? If you have anything to say, just say it!"
As the head of the family, Mr. Nie could not have been unaware of what Mrs. Nie had done, but he just didn't care and let Mrs. Nie do whatever she wanted.
For Nie Zhicheng's life, Mrs. Nie reluctantly told the truth: "It's me. I forced you to wear old-fashioned clothes, comb your hair in old-fashioned ways, and keep a stern face. It's all my fault. Now you should let Zhicheng go, right? Zhicheng is your husband..."
Qiu Chi stepped on Nie Zhicheng's foot with a little force, and Nie Zhicheng's wailing interrupted Mrs. Nie's subsequent words.
Seeing this, Madam Nie was almost heartbroken: "I have told you the truth, why don't you quickly release Zhicheng? Zhai Jiayue, don't go too far, otherwise Zhicheng will divorce you sooner or later!"
Mr. Nie quickly interrupted Mrs. Nie: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't know how to speak, just shut up. You're the only one who talks too much all day long."
After reprimanding Madam Nie, Master Nie looked at Qiu Chi and couldn't help but slow down his voice. "If there's anything, let's talk it over. Can you let Zhicheng go first? He just came back. Don't take Zhicheng's words to heart. Don't worry, you will always be the daughter-in-law of our Nie family."
Nie Yaya still hid aside and said nothing.
Qiu Chi tutted in disdain, "Who wants to be your Nie family's daughter-in-law? Do you really think Nie Zhicheng is such a hot commodity that everyone wants a piece of it?"
"I won't waste my words with you now. Didn't Nie Zhicheng want to divorce me and marry Fang Caiyue? I agreed, but there are conditions."
As he said that, Qiu Chi tied up Nie Zhicheng with a whip and lifted him up.
Although Nie Zhicheng's body was covered in blood, he had protected his face well. Apart from some bruises, there was no risk of disfigurement.
Hearing Qiu Chi's words, he said happily, "As long as you are willing to divorce, I will agree to any conditions. Our marriage is originally a feudal marriage and is meant to be broken. It is really great that you are willing to divorce."
Qiu Chi was also quite happy: "Stop the nonsense. Since you learned about divorce abroad, you must also know that divorce requires property division."
"Of course we can divorce you. In addition to my dowry, give me half of the Nie family's property. I don't want your shop or land either. I just want the money."
