Enraged, Meng Ruya smashed a vase in the living room.
"I've changed. Ever since we had our child, I've been trying my best to change. But what about you?"
From the time she became pregnant until she gave birth, when did he ever patiently fulfill his responsibilities as a husband and father?
At first, he pretended to be too busy with work to come back, but when he did come back, he went out and indulged in debauchery with those vixens.
She knew that the woman was upset because of her career setbacks.
But she wasn't the one who caused it all, yet he took all his anger out on her.
The sound of Meng Ruya smashing the vase startled everyone in the family.
"What's all this noise about in the middle of the night?" Mrs. Qin asked as she came downstairs.
Meng Ruya wiped away her tears. "He wants a divorce."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qin's expression changed instantly.
"None of you want to live like this anymore, do you?"
The eldest son and his wife were arguing about getting a divorce, and now they want to settle down as well. The youngest daughter lives overseas and doesn't even come home anymore.
“Mom, it’s not that I don’t want to live like this anymore, it’s that your son doesn’t want to live like this anymore,” Meng Ruya said.
Mrs. Qin glanced at her. "Don't try to make yourself sound so innocent. Do you think you have no responsibility whatsoever?"
Her affair with the Fu family caused them a great deal of shame.
If it weren't for the sake of the child, she wouldn't want a daughter-in-law like that at all.
"My responsibility?" Meng Ruya sneered and scoffed, "His career setbacks are his elder brother and sister-in-law's fault, not mine.
If they hadn't been so determined to kidnap Fu Hanzheng's son, they wouldn't have provoked the Fu family's furious retaliation.
Qin Lang will not be affected by this; not only will he lose his chance for promotion, but he will also be ostracized.
But returning to business was not his ambition.
Mrs. Qin looked at her dejected son and said, "You were the one who wanted to get married in the first place, and now you want a divorce. What will happen to the child? She's so young."
Looking back now, I wonder what possessed her eldest son and grandson to get involved in all this trouble, leading the Qin family to this state.
The old man is still angry with them about this.
Qin Lang didn't speak, he just sat there silently.
“It’s not that I want a divorce, it’s that she’s making a fuss about not being able to live together anymore, and she’s making a scene over the smallest things.”
"I'm the one who's being persistent, but you're the one having an affair, and you're blaming me for being persistent?" Meng Ruya snorted, as if it were her fault.
Mrs. Qin sighed deeply, "Fine, you'll only be happy if you tear this family apart, won't you?"
Now, she truly regrets not heeding her youngest daughter's advice.
Qin Lang and Meng Ruya stopped talking, but it was clear that neither of them had calmed down.
"Qin Lang, you should tone it down a bit. Xiao Lu is getting married soon. Don't ruin his wedding with your antics," Mrs. Qin warned.
"He still has the nerve to get married. If he hadn't been so blinded by greed, would our family be in this state now?" Meng Ruya scoffed.
The most direct participants in the disappearance of the Fu family's children were Qin Lu and his son.
However, it implicated the entire family.
"Things have already come to this, what more do you want?" Mrs. Qin snapped.
The Qin family's market share in China is shrinking, and they can only stabilize the company through marriage alliances.
"I'm going to sleep." Qin Lang didn't want to listen anymore and got up to rest.
However, instead of returning to her and Meng Ruya's marital home, she went directly to the guest room.
Meng Ruya watched his retreating figure, her heart filled with grief and shock.
This is not the marriage she wanted; the married life she dreamed of was not this miserable.
