Chapter 99 I will go through the formalities tomorrow
The factory director did not doubt Su Mingde's affairs, which made Shao Ting'an feel relieved.
He never reported the after-sales feedback to the factory manager. There was only one unit at first, but later on several more were delivered.
Not wanting to be affected, he kept the matter a secret and dealt with it privately with the salesperson.
"Director, I don't want to divorce Su Li. I really don't have any bad intentions. Everyone in the factory and the family compound knows how I've treated Su Li over the years, including her family. Everyone says I've been good to her."
Su Li felt disgusted by Shao Tingan's almost pleading voice. Wasn't he quite tough just now?
The old factory manager was filled with righteous indignation, "You are an adulterer, and it is only natural that your wife divorces you."
"It's not that I want to go. You can ask her in person. She was pregnant, and every time I went there, I persuaded her to have an abortion. I wanted to live a good life with Su Li again. Director, after doing something wrong, don't you have the right to repent and get back on track?"
Shao Ting'an was trying to win over the factory director again, knowing that he would fall for his tricks.
Sure enough, Director Guo's expression eased slightly.
Su Li said in a low voice, filled with grievance, "Shao Ting'an, you just went to persuade her and didn't do anything else. You're the only one who believes this!"
"Besides, think about it yourself, can you turn back? Today, in front of the factory director, I want you to tell me, are you going to divorce or not?"
The factory manager listened to Su Li's growing agitation and shook his head helplessly. "Ting'an, normally, I shouldn't be involved in your family's affairs. But Xiao Su found me, and I can't play dumb any longer. You got that female student pregnant, and now she has a miscarriage, so you have to be responsible for her. Xiao Su's filing for divorce is a good solution; she's helping you. You've already abandoned her once, are you really thinking of dumping her again?"
When Su Li found the old factory manager, she had already made her position clear.
The factory director tried to persuade her for a long time, but ultimately failed and was persuaded by Su Li.
He had kept the secret for Shao Ting'an for so long, but he didn't expect that he couldn't hide it in the end.
Su Li's request for divorce is the best solution now. Even if Shao Tingan's bad deeds are known to others in the future, at most he will only be criticized a few times, and it will not be brought to the surface to affect him.
The old factory manager thought so, so he agreed to come with Su Li.
What Su Li has to do now is to get a divorce first, and then produce evidence to save Su Mingde.
Shao Ting'an was unwilling to accept the divorce. Could his affairs be concealed?
Many people in the family compound already know about him and Zhao Xinran. If they divorce now, I believe everyone in the factory will know about it soon.
Especially for the Party Secretary, if he wanted to know, it would probably not be that easy.
By then, public opinion polls will definitely hold him back.
After much thought, Shao Ting'an struggled desperately, "Director, we have always had a good relationship. I just took the wrong path. I don't want to get divorced."
Shao Ting'an had a look of regret on his face, and his feelings were sincere.
Hearing this, Su Li wanted to slap him in the face. Just because she took the wrong path, he could attack her father? He could drug her? Now, in order to control her, he didn't hesitate to slander Su Mingde.
Su Li suppressed her urge, glared at him, and said to the old factory director, "If we don't divorce, will Zhao Xinran be lying in the hospital for nothing because of you? If this gets out, it won't be just you who will be embarrassed, but the whole machinery factory will be embarrassed with you. How will Director Guo ever be able to raise his head and introduce you to others in the future?"
Director Guo's face froze and he looked at Shao Ting'an with disappointment.
"Su Li!" Shao Ting'an was furious. "Are you so anxious to divorce because of Fu Jinzhou?"
Kang Ping wanted to beat him up when he heard him ask this. How could this guy be so shameless? Did he think everyone was like him?
Even if his brother Fu had this idea, he would never do anything immoral to Su Li.
The same goes for Su Li. After some contact with her during this period, he has a certain understanding of Su Li. She is a very kind-hearted person.
Su Li naturally knew what he was thinking, and said aggrievedly: "Shao Ting'an, I'm not you, don't think everyone is as dirty as you. In front of the factory director, I saved your face, you should also save some dignity for yourself, if you continue, I'm afraid..."
Shao Ting'an looked at Su Li with a warning look in his eyes, afraid that she would tell the truth about Zhao Xinran's miscarriage. Regardless of whether she knew the murderer, if she told it now, the factory director would definitely believe it.
Su Li squeezed out two tears as she looked at Shao Ting'an. "Ting'an, we've been together for so many years, and I don't want our relationship to end and turn us into enemies. Today, in front of Director Guo, I can promise not to tell anyone about the divorce for the time being. After all, it's not easy for the director to train you for so many years, and we can't let our personal affairs hinder the development of the machinery factory. If you agree, we can go through the formalities tomorrow, but I have one condition."
When Shao Ting'an heard her say not to tell anyone, he suddenly felt enlightened.
But when he heard her put in the conditions, his inner thoughts faltered again, and he asked cautiously, "What conditions?"
"Compensation, you wronged me first, so give me another 3,000 yuan as divorce compensation."
She doesn't want this dirty man anymore, but she can't let him get away with it so easily. She has to take advantage of him.
Su Li sniffed as she spoke, looking aggrieved and resolute, which made the old factory director feel sorry for her.
Such a good woman, sensible and beautiful, how could Shao Ting'an, a blind man,...
Shao Ting'an gritted his teeth, but before he could say anything, the old factory director agreed, "It's only natural."
Thinking about how he had just given her 4,000 yuan as hush money the day before yesterday, he didn't expect that she would ask for another 3,000 yuan in divorce compensation two days later. Did Su Li treat him as a cash cow, or was she playing tricks on him?
He said before that he would keep his mouth shut, but just a few days ago he is asking for a divorce and money again.
But in front of the factory director, he couldn't quibble, let alone say too much, so he could only grit his teeth and nod.
Su Li calculated that he would not pester her in front of the factory director, and smiled in her heart.
She wiped the tears from her face and bit her lip, saying, "In that case, let's go and complete the paperwork tomorrow. You raise the money and give it to me. With Director Guo's testimony, I believe you won't deny it. This way, you can legitimately go to the hospital to take care of Xinran. She's lying alone in the ward, it's quite pitiful."
"Ah..." Director Guo sighed again, "Ting'an, you didn't cherish Xiao Su, such a good wife. You're unlucky. You should learn from this. There are some mistakes you can't make."
Su Li was very touched by the old factory director's kindness to Shao Ting'an. Su Li couldn't bear to let such a kind old man take the blame for Shao Ting'an, so she didn't hand the evidence directly to the old factory director.
She wanted to personally uncover Shao Ting'an's hypocritical mask and let everyone see his unscrupulous cruelty. Then the old factory director would naturally not think of taking the blame for him anymore.
Shao Ting'an looked at Su Li with hatred in his heart, but he couldn't say anything. He squeezed out a few words, "I will learn from this."
Even though he said this, the disappointment on the old factory manager's face was still obvious. "Ting'an, I treat you as my own child. I hope you will reflect on this."
After the old factory director stormed off, Shao Ting'an's expression instantly turned cold. "Su Li, I didn't expect you weren't thinking about Su Mingde at this moment, but about divorcing me. You're so impatient that you don't even care about your brother?"
"Shao Ting'an, I was planning to keep this a secret, but I didn't expect you to touch my brother. If that's the case, there's no need to pretend anymore."
Then Su Li sneered and said, "Don't worry about my brother's affairs, Chief Shao. We will go and complete the formalities at nine o'clock tomorrow."
Kang Ping stood at the door, feeling inexplicably excited when he heard these words. Sister Su could finally be free.
When Su Li returned to the hospital, Liu Guilan was still awake. She was a little worried, "Where have you been? Did you go back to see Ting'an?"
She didn't want to make her mother worry, so she smiled and nodded, "Mom, it's getting late, you should go to bed."
Liu Guilan knew her daughter. Her expression was not natural and obviously not genuine, otherwise she would not have gone back without telling her.
Liu Guilan took her daughter's hand and sat down. "Xiaoli, there's been a lot going on at home lately, and you've been away studying for a while, so you've been apart from Ting'an a lot. But Ting'an has never complained, which is rare. You can't let any other thoughts come to you."
Su Li looked at her mother in shock for a moment. Why did she feel that her mother was afraid that she would let Shao Tingan down?
"Mom, don't think too much. What could I possibly be thinking?"
"Mom has noticed recently that Dr. Fu treats you well. Ever since your dad got into trouble, he's been running around. Although he doesn't say anything on the surface and seems to be following Dr. Xu, Mom is not stupid."
