The wife didn't want to argue with this scoundrel, so she took the child and went back to her parents' home.
Unfortunately, this strong-willed woman was not lucky. Not long after returning home, she was diagnosed with a malignant tumor. Her hospitalization drained the family's savings. At that time, she and Song Nan had not officially divorced, and she did not expect Song Nan to pay for her treatment. She simply sent her son back to the Song family.
She thought that it was uncertain whether her illness could be cured, and her parents had already spent their life savings on her treatment. If she were to pass away one day, leaving her youngest son to her elderly parents would be a considerable burden.
Even if Song Nan is a scoundrel, he wouldn't abandon his own son. Besides, the old couple in the Song family still dote on this little grandson.
What she didn't expect was that after learning about her illness, Song Nan came up with a terrible idea.
In his view, this was such a great opportunity to make money!
He pretended to visit his wife in the hospital, then secretly took many photos. Later, he posted a request for help on a crowdfunding platform, uploading photos of his wife lying sickly in bed along with a series of information. After all, he was still his wife's husband, so obtaining her medical records was easy for him.
He then used his position to get his request for help approved by the platform, and the account listed was his own bank card.
Then they happily waited for donations from kind-hearted people from all walks of life.
He even shared the help request link in several alumni groups.
Unaware of the truth, his former classmates generously donated a considerable amount of money to him.
Bai Mengxue said angrily, "I was initially a little sorry for him; I even donated five hundred yuan!"
Little did anyone know that after Song Nan raised hundreds of thousands of yuan, he didn't use it for his wife at all, but kept it for himself.
Some time later, his wife heard about Song Nan's outrageous behavior from a friend who had visited him in the hospital. In a fit of anger, she called the local TV station and a gossip media hotline, which attracted a lot of reporters to interview her.
With the truth revealed, Song Nan became the target of public criticism, and no amount of sophistry could change his mind.
Not to mention the well-meaning people he deceived who cursed and condemned him, his old classmates in the alumni group gave Song Nan a thorough dressing-down.
"Is he desperate for money...?" Xuanxuan asked incredulously.
"Who knows? He was never a good person to begin with. If life gets a little tough on him, he's capable of anything," Bai Mengxue said coolly.
"What happened to his wife later?"
"After the incident was exposed, the money she raised was recovered, and this time it was truly used for the victim. It seems she has recovered and was discharged from the hospital some time ago. It's unclear whether she's divorced or not."
"That's good." Xuanxuan sighed, wondering what kind of bad luck that girl had to encounter such a scumbag.
......
Xuanxuan enjoyed her carefree days of eating, drinking, having fun, and shopping for less than a month before being driven to flee to Tang Xiaoxiao by the endless stream of scheming rich second-generation men using all sorts of flirting and dating tactics. She strongly demanded to start working immediately, saying she wanted to dedicate her youth to the great desert!
Tang Xiaoxiao found it amusing but also curious, and asked her niece, "Haven't you fallen for any boys all these years?"
Neither she nor Tang Xinxin were against marriage, and the little girl hadn't experienced any setbacks or traumas growing up. Apart from her father being a bit of a jerk, Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't figure out why her niece had never been attracted to a boy in the past thirty years.
