After obtaining the certificate, Lao Shen gave the evidence to his father. He told his father that this was the wife he had forced him to marry.
"...Father, I had already agreed to remarry back then, and I said I would choose my own wife, but you wouldn't allow it. You even repeatedly threatened me with the safety of your benefactor's son, saying it was for my own good. Look at the result of this so-called 'for my own good'!"
As my father, you have ruined my happiness for the rest of my life. What right do you have to claim that you are doing this for me?
From now on, I won't let you interfere in my life!
Old Shen is ruthless. In order to have a grandson, he interfered in Old Shen's life.
Old Shen didn't want his father to keep influencing him, so he quickly agreed to his father's request.
Old Shen also harbored resentment at the time.
Back then, Secretary Fang suggested investigating Wen Shujuan to see what kind of person she was. Old Shen said there was no need.
Before his wedding, Lao Shen made a special trip to see Wen Shujuan and told her that he would definitely prioritize his work and wouldn't take care of his family. He said his work would always be more important than her in his life, and asked her if she could accept that.
Wen Shujuan didn't take it seriously at all, and her answer was quite emotional. She said she admired people with such selfless spirit the most, and she never expected to actually meet one.
Wen Shujuan didn't take that statement seriously at the time. That's why she was dumbfounded when Lao Shen didn't come home for many years.
Old Shen said at the time that it didn't matter to him who he contacted.
If Wen Shujuan behaves herself, then his house can't be without a place for her. As a husband, he will fulfill his responsibilities. If she doesn't behave, then even better. Old Shen won't feel guilty for neglecting her.
Wen Shujuan perfectly fits Lao Shen's expectations. Her restlessness only proves that the old man's judgment is flawed. Her restlessness allows Lao Shen to disregard her.
The only unexpected thing was Shen Ruomei.
When Wen Shujuan abused her power for personal gain, Shen Changchuan showed his father the evidence.
To be honest, Shen Changchuan didn't expect Wen Shujuan to reveal her true colors so soon after getting married. He wanted to go through with the divorce proceedings.
Wen Shujuan refused to divorce, citing her pregnancy.
Old Shen never expected that Wen Shujuan would get pregnant just one month after their marriage.
Old Shen did need someone to occupy his wife's place, and the child was innocent. For the sake of the child, Old Shen gave Wen Shujuan a chance.
Old Shen suggested that Wen Shujuan should no longer use her power for personal gain on behalf of her family.
Her family members who were unemployed remained unemployed, while those who were employed returned to their original workplaces.
If Wen Shujuan can do that, she won't get a divorce; if she can't, she should immediately abort the child and get a divorce. If she wants to get a divorce while pregnant, that's simply impossible.
Wen Shujuan was willing to give up everything for herself, so she agreed to Lao Shen's conditions.
When she was nine months pregnant and close to giving birth, she said she wasn't sleeping well and that old objects could calm her nerves. Ancient books were the best.
Actually, she saw that Old Shen had several ancient books in his hands, and she was quite knowledgeable about them, so she knew that they were valuable.
Those books were a gift from Sister-in-law Yinghong to Old Shen, and Wen Shujuan actually dared to covet them. She took advantage of Old Shen's absence to move all the books into her own room.
Old Shen slapped Wen Shujuan across the face right then and there.
From the first day of their marriage, Lao Shen had said that Wen Shujuan was not allowed to touch anything in the study. It contained not only his personal belongings but also some documents.
He said he was unwilling to hit women, but that didn't mean he wouldn't.
Wen Shujuan only truly behaved herself after that. Even though she was so far along in her pregnancy, Old Shen didn't spoil her anymore.
