Chapter 80 Divorce



Chapter 80 Divorce

Lu Xiuwen was stung by her sharp words, and felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave. She looked at her daughter, who used to be the most well-behaved and sensible, in disbelief:

"You blame me, but I'm doing this for your own good, right? Our family has been in decline since your grandfather passed away. If we don't marry into the Qin family, your father, that jerk, will take away all our property sooner or later. Do you want to starve to death?"

Chen Linlin's eyebrows were gloomy, and her eyes were full of sarcasm. "For my own good? You always say it's for my own good, but you know in your heart that you are only doing it for your own face and for your own future glory and wealth."

Chen Linlin murmured in a daze:

"I wasn't this kind of mom before. I remember when I was little, I would be very happy for a long time just because of a little skirt. It was you who kept telling me that I wanted to marry a rich man, someone who was more powerful than my family. These ordinary things were not good enough for me..."

Chen Linlin bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes full of pain. The cold wind at night seemed to have completely woken her up.

"In fact, I don't like Qin Wu at all. He has never been nice to me. It's you who keeps asking me to cling to him, as if the purpose of my birth is to marry him."

"Mom, you used to be very gentle. You would make soup for my brother and me, and you would be especially patient in teaching us to read. I actually kept the teddy bear you knitted for me. But how did you become like this now? You don't even recognize me anymore."

Chen Linlin stood there, tears welling up in her eyes, her eyes revealing deep grievance and confusion. Her slightly trembling voice was like a leaf blown by the wind, fragile and helpless.

When Lu Xiuwen heard what Chen Linlin said, her heart suddenly tightened, as if she had been hit hard by a heavy fist. She looked at Chen Linlin, who looked aggrieved, and felt an indescribable sense of guilt and heartache.

Tears welled up in her eyes. She was so sad that she couldn't stand steadily. She squatted down and covered her mouth and cried out. Chen Linlin was startled and quickly supported her, "Mom!"

Lu Xiuwen hugged her tightly, her collar wet with tears, "Linlin, mom didn't mean it. Your dad cheated on her back then, and I didn't have any support from my parents. You two were still so young. I didn't dare to divorce for fear of the outside world." Your illegitimate son has taken your place."

"Later, your father spent his days drinking and partying outside, and I couldn't win his heart back, so I wanted to raise you two better. At least your brother is a boy, and your father won't ignore him."

"And you're a girl, I'm so afraid your father would give you to those old men for marriage. Although Qin Wu has a bad temper, he's a good person and has never been involved in any scandals, so I've always wanted to marry you to him."

"After a while, I became like a madman. Every day, I smelled the perfume of other women that your father brought back. I was going crazy! People outside were laughing at me. I had nothing, so I could only make up for it with you two. Whenever I heard others praise you, I felt especially happy."

"Let people know that I, Lu Xiuwen, am not completely useless. At least I still have you two good children. Your brother got married early and I rarely worry about him. It's just you, Linlin. You are my only precious daughter. I am so afraid that you will get hurt and become like me."

Lu Xiuwen's crying was like a flood bursting out, and the heart-wrenching sound seemed to release all the grievances, pain and helplessness in her heart. Her body was shaking violently, and tears flowed freely on her face, soaking her clothes.

Chen Linlin hugged her trembling body and gently patted Lu Xiuwen's back, as if comforting a wounded child.

Chen Linlin's eyes were filled with heartache. She really didn't know that her mother had so many grievances in her heart. She pretended to be indifferent every day, and she really thought her mother really didn't care.

Now I realize how many lonely nights she spent crying silently, soaking many pillows.

Seeing the grief-stricken Lu Xiuwen, Chen Linlin gritted her teeth and made a decision, "Mom, divorce my dad!"

Lu Xiuwen immediately forgot to cry. With red and swollen eyes, she looked at her in surprise, "Divorce?"

Chen Linlin nodded firmly, "Yes, it doesn't matter whether he's at home or not. He's made you so sad, why do you still want to live with him?"

"I am no longer a child. I no longer long for fatherly love. You and he will get a large sum of money after you divorce. Let's leave this place and live a good life."

Lu Xiuwen looked into her eyes, and with a move in his heart, he wiped away his tears fiercely, "Okay, divorce! After the matter is resolved, we will come to the Qin family to pay compensation and apologize."

The mother and daughter made up their minds and left, supporting each other.

At the Qin family's dining table, Old Master Qin saw the housekeeper come in and asked, "How is it? Have they left?"

Everyone understood who they were talking about, and they all calmed down, wanting to hear what the butler had to say.

The housekeeper nodded: "They left, and Ms. Chen, oh no, Ms. Lu seems to have made up her mind to get a divorce."

Everyone was a little surprised, and after listening to the housekeeper's explanation, Old Master Qin sighed, "Alas, Old Chen's son is really useless. I told him not to spoil the child so much, but he refused to listen. It's not surprising that he ended up like this."

The housekeeper asked hesitantly, "Sir, will you continue with what you just arranged?"

Mr. Qin said: "Let's wait until they get divorced. It's easy to get divorced, but the process is not easy. They have gone through a lot."

The butler responded, lowered his head and left.

Old Master Qin looked at everyone with a smile, "Okay, let's eat. Don't worry about irrelevant people."

Everyone came back to their senses and continued chatting and laughing, forgetting the incident.

After dinner, Old Man Qin played two games of chess with Lin Jianyan and then went to bed. After all, he was older and not as capable as before.

After all, New Year's Day is not the real Spring Festival. Young people are more lively during New Year's Eve. At the beginning, everyone is very energetic, but as it approaches the second half of the night, everyone starts to feel sleepy.

Lin Jianyan looked at the bright moon outside the window, listening to the laughter in the house, a little absent-minded.

I wonder if Qin Wu is asleep? Is he also waiting to see the same moon as him on New Year's Eve? The temperature in the mainland is already very low, maybe it has already snowed, so he must have gone to bed early, right?

As he was thinking, he seemed to have a hallucination, and saw a figure walking into the yard through the window. He rubbed his eyes and opened them a little wider, but the figure did not disappear.

Qin Wu?!

Why did he come back?
