Wang Mudan came to Nanyou City to negotiate with Luo Yingtao in a rage, in order to completely sever her relationship with Simingda.
The reason why she used her trump card to ask Luo Yingtao to return the 170,000 yuan given by Simingda was to make Luo Yingtao give up the idea and stop thinking that she could rely on Simingda to ask for money endlessly. That was their common property. What qualifications did Luo Yingtao have to occupy it without reason?
The two old classmates, former good friends, and lifelong rivals in love, talked fiercely for more than two hours in this cold winter. In the end, Wang Mudan left proudly as a winner, leaving Luo Yingtao, who was unwilling but powerless to change the situation, crying secretly.
Since the amount of 170,000 yuan that Wang Mudan forced her to return was a bit large, she couldn't make the decision on her own and had to go home to discuss it with Jiang Nanmu. This was equivalent to posing another difficult problem for her: how to negotiate with Jiang Nanmu?
After Jiang Nanmu heard about the scandal between Luo Yingtao and Si Mingda from Wang Mudan, he never spoke to Luo Yingtao again. They went to their own jobs during the day and completely ignored each other's existence. When they returned home at night, apart from communicating with their son, the other party became air in their eyes.
But now, facing Wang Mudan's ultimatum, Luo Yingtao had to consider breaking the long-standing stalemate between her and Jiang Nanmu.
Before this, Jiang Nanmu only knew that Simingda and Luo Yingtao had an ambiguous relationship, but he didn't know that Luo Yingtao had taken 170,000 yuan from Simingda. He always thought that the family savings were his salary and the income accumulated by Luo Yingtao from accounting agency, and he had been eagerly hoping that Simingda would save enough for the down payment to buy a house.
Now, one crisis after another arises, and Luo Yingtao is caught in a dilemma. She feels overwhelmed and doesn't know how to climb out of the messy vortex?
She had to face it even if she didn't want to. Escaping wouldn't solve the problem. She had to get over this hurdle. After a painful mental struggle, she decided to take the initiative to confront Jiang Nanmu.
Recently, if their son had not passed on messages, there would be no communication between them. They neither talked about divorce nor reconciliation. They were both careful to maintain this hard-won and fragile marriage, keeping silent with full knowledge and not touching that painful nerve.
Tonight was the same as usual. They ate dinner with heavy hearts. After washing up, Luo Yingtao coaxed her son to sleep, and then walked to the bedroom with heavy steps. Jiang Nanmu was leaning against the head of the bed playing with his mobile phone without even looking at her.
Luo Yingtao walked straight to the bed and sat down. She glanced at Jiang Nanmu silently and said in a low voice: "I want to tell you something."
Jiang Nanmu ignored her, but he moved his body, as if he was ready to listen to her story.
Luo Yingtao glanced at Jiang Nanmu and said slowly, "Wang Mudan came to Nanyou City to see me today. We talked for more than two hours."
"What did you talk about?" Hearing Wang Mudan's name, Jiang Nanmu finally raised his head and asked with a gloomy face.
"You should be able to guess the content, so I won't say much." Luo Yingtao lowered her head in shame.
Jiang Nanmu glared at Luo Yingtao with a look of dismay, "You're breaking up your old classmate's family, aren't you proud of it? I don't want to hear those shameless details. Save them for yourself and don't bother me."
As much as he was obsessed with Luo Yingtao's pretty face before, he was disgusted with it now. He felt that this pretty face in front of him was a disaster. It was an eternal truth that beautiful women are the root of disaster. How many men were ruined by women. If it weren't for Luo Yingtao's messing around, the peaceful life of their two families would not have been broken.
"I'm not talking to you about this. It's about something else. You have to listen even if you don't want to, because it has something to do with you." Luo Yingtao pleaded with Jiang Nanmu patiently.
"What's the matter? If you want to say it, say it quickly." Jiang Nanmu shouted loudly.
Luo Yingtao said dully, "I accept all your criticism. It won't change the facts. What I want to tell you is that Simingda has transferred over 170,000 yuan in pocket money to me over the past two years. Wang Mudan has found out about all this."
"What did you say? 170,000?" For Jiang Nanmu, who only earns a few thousand yuan a month, this amount of money is an astronomical figure.
"Yes."
Jiang Nanmu put down his phone and asked, "What happens after we find out? What does she want?"
"She wants me to return it, otherwise she will sue me in court. If that day comes, I will have a criminal record, which will affect my son's education and job hunting. I don't want my son to be implicated because of my affairs." Luo Yingtao expressed her concerns helplessly.
"Go to hell, you!" Jiang Nanmu threw his phone heavily onto the bed and cursed loudly, "Look at what kind of mess you've caused. It's a typical case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice. You're trying to steal someone but ruining yourself. You have no sense of shame, don't you? It doesn't matter if you're shameless, but don't bring disaster to me and my son."
In a rage, Jiang Nanmu's face was distorted. He was so angry that he almost lost control of his emotions. He wanted to strangle Luo Yingtao to death to vent his anger.
Fortunately, reason reminded him to remain calm. For the sake of his son, he must swallow all the bitterness and grievances and never make mistakes impulsively.
"I didn't expect her to be so cruel and not care about our years of friendship as classmates." Luo Yingtao was still upset about Wang Mudan asking her to pay back the money. In her opinion, the money was given by Si Mingda on his own initiative and he used it to express his love for her. What right did Wang Mudan have to ask for it back?
"They are husband and wife, and all their property is public property. You stole her husband and spent his money. Do you think you are right? Do you really think Wang Mudan is as brainless as you? Otherwise, her business would not be so big?"
