Because she wasn't seriously injured, Ye Huanhuan was discharged from the hospital that same evening.
When she returned to the Tang family home with Tang Yi, she heard a commotion coming from the main hall.
The two exchanged a glance, quickened their pace, and went over to see what was happening. They saw Tang Junshan violently striking Tang Lian with his cane, while simultaneously cursing:
"You good-for-nothing spendthrift! How have you ever disciplined your wife? She's even trying to take advantage of her own family! If anything happens to Huanhuan's baby, you pack your things and get out of here, never to show your face in front of me again!"
Tang Junshan cursed as he lashed out at Tang Lian. Tang Lian screamed in pain, begging for mercy.
"Dad, this has nothing to do with me. It was all Zhao Xinran's idea. She didn't discuss it with me at all! If I had known she had this idea, I definitely would have stopped her!"
Tang Junshan didn't care about any of that. He believed it was all Tang Lian's fault, that he hadn't managed Zhao Xinran properly, which was why this had happened.
"Shut up! You can't even control your own wife, all you do is go out and fool around! Tell me, what good are you anyway?"
Tang Junshan grew angrier the more he thought about it, and his blows became increasingly brutal. Tang Lian was in excruciating pain all over his body, but he dared not retaliate. He could only silently endure it, cursing Zhao Xinran hundreds of times in his heart.
Dong Shuying stood by, heartbroken. Seeing Tang Junshan's blows becoming increasingly violent, she quickly spoke up to dissuade him:
"Master, Ah Lian knows he was wrong, so please don't be angry. Even if you beat Ah Lian to death now, it won't do any good. Besides, you can't take such anger. Be careful not to ruin your health!"
Seeing Tang Yi and his companion approaching, she reacted as if she had seen a savior and immediately said to Tang Yi:
"Yi-ge'er, Huan-huan, you've come back just in time! Quickly come and persuade your grandfather to stop hitting him. If he keeps hitting him, your uncle will be beaten to death!"
Tang Yi quickly stepped forward and took Tang Junshan's hand.
"Okay, Grandpa, please stop hitting him! If you keep hitting him, you're really going to beat my uncle to death!"
Tang Junshan stopped what he was doing, panting heavily, and looked at Tang Yi, saying:
"Yi-ge'er, Grandpa is standing up for Huanhuan!"
Looking at Tang Lian, whose body was covered in bruises from being hit with the cane, Dong Shuying's eyes were filled with heartache, and she asked with concern:
"Ah Lian, how are you? Are you alright?"
Tang Lian glanced at Tang Yi with a complicated expression, then touched his bruised back and shook his head, saying:
"Mom, I'm fine. Dad's methods aren't enough to kill me for now."
Dong Shuying glanced resentfully at Tang Junshan, who was furious, but dared not speak out.
Tang Yi ignored the mother and son, and instead spoke calmly to Tang Junshan:
“Grandpa, Huanhuan is alright now, so please don’t be angry. I’ve already ordered Zhao Xinran to be kicked out of the Tang family. From now on, the Tang family will no longer provide any assistance or support to the Zhao family’s business. Now, the most important thing is not to punish Uncle, but to find a way to contact the Qin family and make them hand over Qin Xiao.”
“What Yi-ge’er says is true.”
Tang Junshan slowly walked up to Ye Huanhuan, looking remorseful, and said, "Huanhuan, you've suffered so much. Is the baby in your belly alright?"
Ye Huanhuan shook her head. "Grandpa, I'm fine. The doctor said it's just superficial injuries and nothing serious."
"That's good!"
Tang Junshan seemed to have made up his mind, and continued, "This time, Grandpa will risk his old face to go to the Qin family and get justice for you!"
Tang Yi immediately stopped him, saying, "No need, Grandpa. You don't need to get involved. I'll handle it."
Tang Junshan said firmly, "No, I have to handle this personally. Otherwise, the Qin family won't hand over the person so easily!"
Tang Yi opened his mouth, but ultimately failed to dissuade Tang Junshan.
At this moment, Tang Junshan continued, "Since Yi-ge'er has already driven Zhao Xinran out of the Tang family, Tang Lian, I'll give you three days to get a divorce. From now on, the Zhao family will have nothing to do with our Tang family!"
Upon hearing the news of divorce, Tang Lian was stunned and momentarily speechless.
Seeing this, Dong Shuying was afraid that Tang Lian would be unwilling, so she immediately answered for him: "Zhao Xinran is indeed too vicious. This kind of woman is not worthy of being our Tang family's daughter-in-law. Three days is more than enough time for A-Lian to get a divorce."
Tang Lian wasn't unwilling at all; he was more than willing!
He had wanted a divorce for a long time. In the first place, he didn't want to marry Zhao Xinran. He preferred glamorous young models and actresses with hot bodies. In his eyes, a bland and tasteless woman like Zhao Xinran was just like a man, utterly devoid of charm.
Tang Lian was secretly delighted, but on the surface she pretended to be sad, "Sigh, I know, but... after the divorce, won't I be remarried?"
Tang Junshan glared at him, "Second marriage is second marriage! You useless thing, why don't you hurry up and get things done? You're so slow, just looking at you annoys me!"
Tang Lian felt as if he had been granted a pardon and quickly replied, "I understand, I understand, I'll take care of it right away."
Having said that, he left the main hall of the Tang family in a hurry.
Tang Junshan watched his retreating figure and shook his head helplessly. He turned to Tang Yi and said:
"Yi-ge'er, you should take Huanhuan downstairs and get some rest. She must be terrified this time."
Ye Huanhuan was exhausted after experiencing so much today. She said goodbye to Tang Junshan and went back to her room.
Before leaving, Dong Shuying pretended to ask Ye Huanhuan a few questions, but Tang Yi brushed them off with a cold attitude.
Ye Huanhuan and Tang Yi had suspected that Dong Shuying might be behind this incident while they were at the hospital. The reason was that the driver who took Ye Huanhuan to the suburban villa was one of Dong Shuying's men.
