"Master Wen." Linda took a deep breath, but her voice was still trembling when she spoke again, "I want to know, was this poison given to me by my husband?"
Wen Qi sighed inwardly, but the words he spoke were very calm, "You already have the answer, don't you?"
There was silence in the receiver for a few seconds, and then there was a suppressed cry. Linda's choked voice came, "Why? We have been together since high school. He knows that I have always wanted a child. Why did he do this to me..."
Wen Qi's tone was still calm. "Excuse me for being blunt, but your husband's heart may not have been with you for a long time. Your separation in a foreign country and even this divorce may have been planned by him."
Linda choked up, and after a while she said in a hoarse voice: "I understand. Thank you, Master Wen. I will deposit the full amount of the bond-making fee into your account."
Wen Qi's eyebrows jumped, and she advised, "You don't have to be too sad. Get rid of the scumbag as soon as possible, and your future life will be better." After a pause, she whispered, "It's not completely impossible for your body to recover."
Linda was confused. "You mean, you have a way for me to have a child of my own?"
Wen Qi didn't say anything too final, just said: "You can try."
In an instant, a ray of sunshine shone into Linda's heart, which was about to be swallowed by darkness. It was not big but extremely dazzling, and it became the last straw that saved her.
"I'm going abroad right now to divorce my scumbag. When I come back, I'll talk to you in detail about how to recover, okay?"
Wen Qi smiled, "Of course, you can come to me anytime. Finally, I would like to remind you that it is best to have sufficient evidence before divorce. Direct prosecution can get you the maximum compensation."
Linda thanked him solemnly, and after hanging up the phone, she directly booked a ticket to Country M. This was the first time she flew to Country M without notifying her husband, and on the plane, she kept thinking about the past.
People often deceive themselves, which can be attributed to a self-preservation instinct. When people see something they don't want to face or believe, their brains will issue instructions to make them turn a blind eye and a deaf ear.
Commonly known as, deceiving oneself.
When people get to know the truth, the details that were ignored in the past will emerge one by one, becoming strong evidence that the other party has wronged you. But who knows, this is not another self-deception? After landing in the United States, after more than ten hours of reflection and sorting out, Linda was completely disheartened. She could only get enough evidence to prove that her husband had cheated on her and drugged her, and it would be best if she could make the man lose everything.
Never underestimate a woman's desire for revenge.
Linda took a taxi directly to a private detective agency and hired the most famous detective to collect evidence.
Perhaps because Linda hadn't been home for half a year, her husband and another woman had already acted like a couple, going shopping, eating out, dating, and living together in their former wedding home.
Linda looked at the photo provided by the detective with an expressionless face until she saw the two people kissing intimately. She couldn't bear it any longer, so she threw the photo away and rushed to the bathroom, vomiting violently.
It was really disgusting. Why are there such disgusting people in the world? After vomiting everything in her stomach, Linda rinsed her mouth, fixed her makeup and hair, and walked out of the bathroom gracefully.
The detective said, "We have enough evidence now. You can provide it all to your lawyer. But regarding the drugging, it's been so long that it's hard to verify. I suggest you don't hold out too much hope."
Linda nodded in understanding, "Thank you, you've worked hard."
The detective shrugged. "A bad marriage is like a piece of rotten flesh growing on your body. No matter how painful it is, you have to cut it off. Believe me, the wound will heal sooner or later, and there are still decades of wonderful life waiting for you in the future."
Linda's eyes turned red, and she nodded sincerely, "Thank you for your encouragement. I also believe that the future will be better."
After communicating with her lawyer, Linda immediately filed a lawsuit in court.
It was not until the man was summoned by the court that he suddenly panicked and called to curse.
The final result was what she wanted. All the common property of the couple became hers, and the other party had to repay all the expenses incurred in purchasing items for the mistress during the marriage.
Linda was satisfied, and she bought a plane ticket back home as soon as the property was transferred. She never wanted to set foot on this land again in her life.
As for that man, since all their property was earned through hard work after marriage, he became a complete pauper after being left with nothing. However, he did not repent. He believed that financial difficulties were only temporary and with his ability, he would be able to earn back what he had lost sooner or later!
But his dream was soon shattered when the company found out about his affair with Linda and fired him.
The reason is simple, because the boss and his wife are very much in love, they cannot accept a man who betrayed his wife to be the director of their company, which would make them unable to sleep well.
If he can even betray his wife, who knows if he will betray the company?
Of course he was not convinced to be fired for such a reason, but his deeds had already spread, and it was absolutely impossible for him to find a suitable job in Country M. He lost his good material life, and his "little wife" who had been so affectionate to him also left him.
And before leaving him, he took away the only money he had left.
Not long after, a ragged homeless man appeared on the streets of Country M.
After Linda returned home, she spent a day dealing with work matters, and then couldn't wait to find Wen Qi to ask for ways to regulate her body.
Wen Qi directly took out two talismans, "One for praying for a child, and one for health. Wear them with you, and take medicine and exercise according to the doctor's orders." She smiled, "The most important thing is not to give up on your romantic encounter."
Linda tightly grasped the two talismans and nodded very seriously, "I will."
In the blink of an eye, it was Mr. Feng’s birthday.
Wen Qi, Feng Ce and Feng Xiao stood at the gate of the courtyard to welcome the guests. Zhang Zhenyan wanted to take care of the child, so she stayed with Grandpa Feng.
In recent days, Mr. Feng's spirit has been getting worse and worse. He himself seems to have noticed something. When he is alone, he often stares out the window in a daze, and no one knows what he is thinking.
Wen Qi also told Feng Ce that they might be too obvious in their behavior. Grandpa was so smart that he must have guessed it.
Feng Ce was silent for a long time before he said, "We can't give up the last bit of time we spend with him just because he guessed it."
During those days, Wen Qi was very nervous, fearing that the old man would suddenly have a heart-to-heart talk with her. Fortunately, Old Man Feng was only depressed for two days, and then he was like nothing happened, happily chatting with them every day.
Wen Qi felt relieved, and at the same time couldn't help but admire Mr. Feng's open-minded character. Not everyone can face death so calmly.
"Grandpa seems to be in good spirits today." Before the guests arrived, Feng Xiao said, "It really fits the saying that people are in high spirits when they are happy."
Wen Qi smiled and said nothing. In fact, she was afraid that the old man was too tired, so she gave him some soul power.
Feng Ce glanced at the time and said, "It's almost time to prepare the salute."
It is also a tradition to set off firecrackers before the birthday banquet begins. It is meant to scare away evil spirits and bless the elderly with peace and health in the coming year.
After nine "bang bang bang" sounds, the guests finally arrived one after another, and the birthday banquet officially began.
