In the room
At this moment, two hours have passed since Chen Junjie was locked in the closet.
At first he could still hold on, but the longer he went on, the more difficult it became for him to breathe. His nose was filled with the smell of mothballs and perfume, which made him dizzy.
But the wardrobe door was heavy and he couldn't push it open no matter how hard he tried. He could only hope that Tang Yiyi would come back soon.
In the darkness, he didn't know the time and couldn't call for help.
There was no air conditioning in the room. In the dark and narrow closet, he felt hot and stuffy, almost suffocating, and fell into a semi-coma without realizing it.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Suddenly, fresh air rushed in.
Chen Junjie's exposed skin was covered with goose bumps.
He opened his eyes dazedly and saw several blurry figures. After his eyes adjusted to the light, he saw the angry Chen Hongjiang, the surprised Lu Li, and the bewildered Tang Yiyi.
Chen Junjie woke up with a start, "Dad."
"Get dressed and get into the study!"
After saying that, Chen Hongjiang turned and left.
Lu Li turned around and scolded the servants who were helping to look for someone, "Get out!"
When Chen Junjie came out of the closet holding the clothes, he looked like he had been fished out of the water and could hardly stand.
But as soon as he crawled out, he was slapped by Su Man and was stunned.
"Scumbag!"
Before Chen Junjie could say anything, Su Man ran out crying with her hands covering her face.
In this situation, even Lu Li couldn't say anything. She could only poke Chen Junjie's forehead with disapproval, "You!"
After Su Man returned to the room, she put down her hands that were covering her face and started packing her things.
The nurse didn't ask a single question, but just followed Suman after she finished cleaning up and wrapped the child tightly.
Of course, when Suman went out, her aunt asked her to stay.
"Miss Xiang, where are you going?"
Su Man had tears in her eyes and said, "I can't stay in this house anymore. I want to leave."
"Miss Xiang, please don't leave. The child is still so young. Where can you go with him in your arms at this late hour?"
At this moment, Lu Li was attracted by the sound. She looked at Su Man's posture and was very disgusted. "Xiang Man, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"
However, Lu Li's scolding did not scare Su Man. She looked directly into her eyes without fear and said, "Didn't you see what happened just now? Tell me, after something like this happened, what reason do I have to stay at home?"
Lu Li frowned, "Junjie just made a mistake that all men in the world would make. As his wife, you should be understanding."
Su Man was almost amused by her anger. Lu Li was speaking entirely from the perspective of her own son. She didn't care about her daughter-in-law's life or death at all.
"You're asking me to be understanding? You're asking me to be understanding of his infidelity? Not only that, but he also allowed his infidelity partner to come into my house and hang out with me right under my nose. You're a woman too. If you were in a situation like that, would you be able to be understanding?"
"Shut up! You have no worries about food and drink since you married into our family. You are already living better than many people. Isn't Junjie just a little playful when he is young? Why do you have to be so unreasonable?" Lu Li raised her voice, as if she was the one who was wrong.
"Mom, how can you say such a thing? If it were the other way around, and I were your daughter and Junjie was your son-in-law, would you say such a thing?"
"How dare you talk to me like that? Look at yourself, you shrew, and you blame Junjie for finding someone else? I think his only mistake was not divorcing you earlier..."
"shut up!"
A loud shout echoed throughout the front hall.
Lu Li was startled and turned around to meet Chen Hongjiang's serious face.
Chen Hongjiang came down the stairs, followed by a dejected Chen Junjie.
Chen Hongjiang walked past Lu Li and said to the nurse, "Take the child back first, and we'll sit down and talk."
The nurse didn't move at first, until she saw Su Man nod, then she carried the child in.
Lu Li followed Chen Hongjiang to the living room while mumbling, "What's there to talk about? We shouldn't encourage her arrogance."
"Lu Li." Chen Hongjiang warned.
Lu Li closed her mouth in disappointment.
In the living room
Except for Chen Junjie, they all sat on the sofa.
Chen Hongjiang said, "Xiaoman, Junjie was indeed wrong in this matter. I have just taught him a lesson. From today on, I will stop giving him pocket money and send Miss Tang away."
"Dad, Yiyi..."
Chen Junjie was halfway through his words when he was frightened by Chen Hongjiang's eyes and shut his mouth awkwardly.
He continued, "The child is still young, and you're still in confinement after childbirth, so it's really not suitable for you to move around. Junjie knows he was wrong, and I hope you can give him another chance for the sake of the child."
Su Man was a little surprised. She didn't expect Chen Hongjiang to say such a thing. Although it wasn't completely fair, it was much better than Lu Li's. She lowered her head and said, "Since you've spoken, Dad, I won't mention this matter again."
Chen Hongjiang nodded, "Okay, Chen Junjie, go upstairs with your mother to rest first. I'll talk to Xiaoman for a few words."
Although Lu Li was dissatisfied, she could not go against Chen Hongjiang's decision, so she could only go upstairs angrily.
After they all left, Chen Hongjiang took out a bank card and said, "This is for you. The password is your child's birthday."
Su Man refused repeatedly, "Dad, what are you doing? I really don't need this."
"You gave birth to a child for our Chen family, you are a hero. The child will soon be one month old, and we are going to hold a full-month banquet. You can use the money to buy some jewelry. It can be regarded as a small token of our Chen family's appreciation."
Chen Hongjiang has been in the business world for many years, and he speaks meticulously, which makes people feel at ease.
