Su Chenhao felt that Wang Qiang was really unlucky to have married such a wife.
He's certainly better looking than the average person, but his extravagance is just too outrageous.
As a regular friend, he couldn't say anything, especially in such a crucial situation. The woman and two men standing inside the door were not old, at most in their 30s, and looked rather intimidating.
Li Taohong spoke first: "Zhao Yue, you should be willing to accept the consequences of your bet. You've been playing here for almost half a year now. There were people around when the cards were dealt just now. You need evidence to prove that we switched your cards."
What's the point of fooling around at the door? Do you think I, Sister Tao, am easy to bully?
Wang Qiang looked at the smug Li Taohong in front of him. He had heard that she had powerful connections, otherwise she wouldn't have gone unpunished for so long. His wife had been deceived, and he could only accept it; he was powerless against powerful figures. He knew a few people, but when it came down to it, they were useless. He was very clear about that. He blamed Zhao Yue for being stupid.
Zhao Yue cried and wailed, "You not only cheated my family out of their money, but you also put me in debt with loan sharks! How am I ever going to pay it back?!"
Wang Qiang grabbed her collar: "Explain yourself! How did you end up in debt to loan sharks again? Did you gamble away all the money in the house?"
Zhao Yue nodded cautiously: "I didn't expect it to turn out like this. After losing, I just wanted to win. I never thought they would be a bunch of liars."
If Qiao Xiaoni were here, she would definitely tell her that such scams are child's play, and that the real ruthless telecom fraud will happen 30 years from now!
Seeing her bewitched, Wang Qiang could no longer restrain himself and raised his hand to slap her several times.
"Are you awake yet? Our son is still in the hospital. Can't you think straight? Where's the money I asked you to withdraw?"
"There's no money left in my savings account, and I gambled away all the 30-odd yuan I had at home. I don't have a single penny on me now." Zhao Yue chickened out and got scared, so she told everyone everything, since she knew she had to tell sooner or later anyway.
Wang Qiang took two deep breaths and pointed to the main road beside him, saying:
"Get out of here! I never want to see you again!"
Zhao Yue hugged his trouser leg tightly: "Wang Qiang, I really know I was wrong. We're a legally married couple, you can't abandon me!"
Wang Qiang kicked his leg away and said, "We'll get a divorce tomorrow at dawn. You pay your own debts. I will absolutely not help you pay a single penny."
Zhao Yue fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while.
Li Taohua hadn't expected this outcome. She was playing the long game; if they really got divorced, it would only do her harm, not good. She walked over, waving her folding fan, her blue cheongsam swaying in the wind, its slit reaching her hips, making her look incredibly alluring.
"Brother Wang, why are you so hot-tempered? Your wife only lost some money gambling, why do you need to get a divorce?"
"You can postpone paying the money you owe me for now. I heard your child is in the hospital." She waved to the people behind her, and someone immediately handed her 50 yuan. She took it and said to Wang Qiang, "..."
"This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please don't think it's too little. This is all I can do for you."
Wang Qiang really wanted to beat up the woman in front of him, but he didn't dare. If he hit her, he might lose his job and might never be able to stay in this town again. He could only swallow his anger and accept the money.
"Thank you, Sister Tao. I'm definitely getting a divorce. If I want to keep this spendthrift wife, I'd rather stay single for the rest of my life!"
