Everyone around immediately frowned.
"Are you threatening me with your own life?" Xing Zhaoming asked.
“That’s right,” Chen Wei said, her neck stiff.
"Whatever." Xing Zhaoming sighed helplessly, his eyes filled with undisguised disappointment. He had just returned from the front lines, witnessing firsthand how many comrades had perished on that land, and now she was making a scene over something so trivial.
Chen Wei stared at Xing Zhaoming, her face filled with disbelief: "What do you mean, Xing Zhaoming? We've been married for so many years, are you really so heartless as to just watch me die?"
"You don't even cherish your own life, so why do you expect others to care?" Xing Zhaozhao frowned as she looked at Chen Wei and said.
Chen Wei turned her head and glared fiercely at Xing Zhaozhao: "He is no stranger, he is my husband."
"So you think you can justify using your own life to control him? Don't even think about it, let me tell you." Xing Zhaozhao said bluntly, "I won't let you bully my brother. If you want to die, stay far away and don't dirty my house."
Chen Wei's eyes reddened with anger as she looked at Xing Zhaoming: "Xing Zhaoming, do you really have no regard for marital affection at all, letting your sister bully me like this?"
Xing Zhaoming said expressionlessly, "This is her home, she has the final say."
Tears welled up in Chen Wei's eyes, and her whole body trembled involuntarily: "Fine, you all bully me, then don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll take this to your unit leaders and make sure Xing Zhaoming can't stay in the army anymore, you believe me?"
Xing Zhaoming's expression changed, but he still refused to compromise, squeezing out two words through gritted teeth: "Whatever."
Seeing that Xing Zhaoming remained unmoved, Chen Wei was completely at a loss. A resolute glint flashed in her eyes: "Fine, very well then, since you're all bullying me..."
She turned abruptly and rushed into the house.
The people outside looked at each other, not having time to figure out what she was up to, when they saw her run out of the house again, holding a kitchen knife in her hand.
Xing Zhaozhao recognized it at a glance; it was from her kitchen.
Chen Wei held the knife to her neck, her hand still trembling: "Then I'll die right here in front of you..."
Unexpectedly, she was serious, and everyone around her changed their expressions.
Chen Hao, his face grim, leaped forward, trying to snatch the knife away. Before he could even touch anyone, a leg suddenly flew from the side and slammed into Chen Wei's stomach.
Chen Wei let out a howl and flew several meters backward, from outside the house straight into the house, where she crashed onto the dining table in the main room with a "bang," crushing the table with a "smash."
The kitchen knife slipped from her hand and flew away, falling to the ground with a clang.
Gao Mingcheng quickly went over, picked up the kitchen knife, and hid it in the rice jar in the kitchen.
Chen Hao stood there dumbfounded, staring at Chen Wei lying in the room, then at Xing Zhaozhao looking at the broken table with a pained expression. He couldn't come to his senses for a long time.
"Ouch, it hurts so much, boohoo..." Chen Wei cried, feeling both pain and grievance. She had never suffered so much in her life.
Chen Hao finally realized what was happening and rushed to Chen Wei's side. Seeing her disheveled appearance, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her and also couldn't help but feel resentful. It was all his own fault; he hadn't been living a good life.
"How are you, Weiwei?" Chen Hao asked worriedly.
As if she had found her pillar of support, Chen Wei threw herself into Chen Hao's arms and cried even louder: "You have to stand up for me, brother."
Chen Hao turned to look at Xing Zhaoming, who was standing at the door with a frown but hadn't come over. He sighed helplessly, looked at Chen Wei, and said, "Why don't we just get a divorce?" Things have gotten this bad. They've said some harsh words and even taken physical action. Even if they try to maintain the marriage, everyone will feel uncomfortable. Anyway, with the Chen family's resources, they won't have trouble finding someone better than Xing Zhaoming after the divorce. If he doesn't want to remarry, he, as her older brother, can support her.
Chen Wei cried her eyes out, shaking her head vigorously: "No, I won't divorce him, I want him."
Chen Hao's temple twitched: "..." He really wanted to crack open her head and see what was inside. If you don't want a divorce, soften your stance first. After all, you were in the wrong first. Why make things like this? Gambling on him to soften first? Unfortunately, he lost the bet.
"Brother, please help me." Chen Wei tugged at Chen Hao's sleeve and shook it, pleading.
Chen Hao: "..." Don't call him brother, he can't afford this sister.
"Brother..." Chen Wei looked at Chen Hao pitifully and continued to call out.
Chen Hao: "..."
Chen Hao sighed helplessly. Oh well, he must have owed her in his past life.
Chen Hao looked at Xing Zhaoming: "Can't you give her another chance, Zhaoming? It's inevitable that couples will have some disagreements. Can't you be more tolerant? Weiwei already knows she was wrong."
Xing Zhaoming glanced at Chen Wei, who looked unwilling: "..." Did he even believe what he said?
Chen Hao followed Xing Zhaoming's gaze and glanced at Chen Wei: "..." At least pretend a little, my dear.
Under the intimidating gaze of Chen Hao, which seemed to want to kill her, Chen Wei finally relented: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."
Chen Hao felt relieved and continued to look at Xing Zhaoming: "She will change in the future."
Chen Wei repeated herself like a broken record, "I will change."
Xing Zhaoming: "..." Can you please stop treating him like he's blind?
Chen Hao continued to persuade him, "Even if it's not for anything else, you have to think about the two children, especially Jiaping. He's still so young and can't be separated from his mother. Even if you remarry, can you guarantee that the two children won't encounter a vicious stepmother? Are you willing to let the two children suffer?"
When Chen Hao mentioned the child, Xing Zhaoming hesitated, as the child was indeed her biggest worry.
Seeing that there was a chance, Chen Wei's eyes lit up, and she looked at Xing Zhaoming expectantly.
After hesitating for a long time, Xing Zhaoming looked at Chen Hao and said, "If it really doesn't work out, we'll have to trouble the child's maternal grandmother. I'll send her my salary on time every month. As the child's maternal uncle, you shouldn't mistreat them, right?"
Chen Hao: "..." Damn it, I've gotten myself into this mess.
Chen Hao thought for a moment, then looked at Xing Zhaozhao: "Could you try to persuade your brother? You don't want your two little nephews to be without a mother, do you?"
Xing Zhaozhao didn't buy his act at all, and said calmly, "I respect my brother's decision." After saying that, she looked at Xing Zhaoming and said, "If it really doesn't work, you can ask me to take care of Xiao Jiashu and Xiao Jiaping. It will also give my Dafei and Xiao Yumo some company."
“You already have three children of your own, how can you manage?” Xing Zhaoming didn’t want to add to his sister’s burden.
Xing Zhaozhao didn't care: "Anyway, it's all the same flock of sheep. Whether it's three or five, it doesn't matter if there are two more."
Xing Zhaoming began to seriously consider it.
“Brother…” Chen Wei said anxiously.
Chen Hao looked at Xing Zhaozhao seriously: "Consider it as me asking you for the favor you owed me before."
Gao Mingcheng and Xing Zhaoming both looked at Xing Zhaozhao.
"Human favors?" Xing Zhaoming asked.
"When did you ever owe anyone a favor?" Gao Mingcheng asked.
Xing Zhaozhao glared at Chen Hao fiercely. "Mind your own business."
Chen Hao raised an eyebrow slightly, then suddenly felt relieved. It was done.
