Chapter 179 Fighting for Pride, Not for a Bun
Lee Da-mi?
Could it be her assistant? It must be. Lin Shanshan thought to herself.
When they first met, Li Duomei said that she would never be able to have children in her life.
According to Jasmine, Li Duomei can't have children, so it must be her. After all, the chances of having the same name as Li Duomei are slim.
The man spoke up, saying, "It's not that I'm reluctant, but she has to go to school to work every day now, right? Today was the opening ceremony, she's too busy. I'll definitely tell her when she's less busy."
Okay, I'm 100% sure it's my assistant.
Pregnant women can't hold back their tempers when they flare up. Lin Shanshan suddenly stood up, grabbed a glass of lemonade from the table, and, not forgetting to bring her self-defense weapon—Gu Yiye—she walked towards that table of scumbags and bitches.
"Excuse me, does the Li Duomei you mentioned work at Xinghuo University of Science and Technology?"
Lin Shanshan asked.
The man and Jasmine's expressions changed slightly. After a minute or so, Jasmine stood up and asked, "Yes, what's wrong? You know her, right? You heard what we were saying just now, didn't you?"
"Perfect timing. Tell Li Duomei that her man is with me now and doesn't want her anymore. Stop bothering Hu Wei. It's better for everyone to get a divorce sooner rather than later."
Lin Shanshan laughed in anger. Mistresses are truly shameless, no matter the era.
Too lazy to argue with this kind of person, I poured a glass of water on them.
Jasmine's makeup was ruined, and she cursed, "Are you sick? Hu Wei, aren't you going to help me fight back?"
Before Hu Wei could get up, Gu Yiye blocked Lin Shanshan's way and said, "Who dares to touch my wife?"
Hu Wei stopped moving, and when Jasmine saw Gu Yiye, who was two heads taller than her, she immediately became as quiet as a chicken.
Lin Shanshan snorted and said, "Brother Gu, let's go back and eat."
Sitting back down, Wang Zhanbo gave a thumbs-up: "Sister-in-law, you're really cool."
Lin Shanshan pursed her lips and remained silent. Gu Yiye asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable letting her off so easily after only spilling a cup of water?"
Lin Shanshan nodded and said, "I have no opinion, and I don't know what Li Duomei's attitude is."
Bai Xue asked, "Shanshan, will you tell Li Duomei what you saw today?"
Without much thought, Lin Shanshan said, "Of course I'll tell him. It's better to end things quickly than to suffer for a long time. It's better to break up with this kind of scumbag sooner rather than later. I can't keep it a secret just because I'm afraid they'll get divorced."
"This will only make Li Duomei suffer more."
Bai Xue agreed, saying, "That's what I think too. In Hong Kong, if a wife discovers her husband is having an affair, collecting evidence immediately can help her get more assets in a divorce."
"But in the mainland, people are relatively conservative and would rather tear down a temple than break up a marriage. That's not right. It's better to be free and independent than to be together in pain and endure betrayal."
Lin Shanshan nodded, preparing to warn Gu Yiye that he was not allowed to cheat on her in the future, or she would ruin him.
On second thought, even if all the men in the world cheated, his Brother Gu wouldn't, so he obediently shut his mouth.
Just then, the dishes were served. Bai Xue saw the sea cucumber and picked one up for Lin Shanshan.
Gu Yiye said, "Mom, Shanshan doesn't eat sea cucumber, nor does she eat onions, fatty meat, mutton, or goose. She loves fish, shrimp, and crab. But now that she's pregnant, she can't eat crab. Don't feed her anything."
Bai Xue turned the hand holding the lamb chop into Wang Zhanbo's bowl and said, "Son, eat more."
Wang Zhanbo rolled his eyes. Don't think I didn't see that this was meant to be an extra gift for his sister-in-law.
Gu Yiye ate the sea cucumber in Lin Shanshan's bowl and then began to pick out the bones from his young wife's plate.
Lin Shanshan had something on her mind, so she stopped eating after finishing one bowl of rice.
Gu Yiye took Bai Xue back to the guesthouse, picked up Wang Zhanbo's luggage, and then drove to the school.
Wang Zhanbo needed to undergo military training, so he was placed in Li Bing's staff dormitory. Li Bing, as a veteran, was the instructor for the military training.
Gu Yiye served as the chief instructor, and Shanhe arranged for several soldiers who had just retired from the local area of Haishi to be the other personnel, including Zhang Wei.
Lin Shanshan didn't even take a nap before finding Li Duomei. She didn't mince words and got straight to the point.
Li Duomei's expression changed only slightly, as if she already knew.
Lin Shanshan asked curiously, "You know?"
Li Duomei shook her head: "I'm not sure, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I also think that Hu Wei and I will get divorced sooner or later."
Lin Shanshan knew it was probably for the sake of the child. In this era, there was no IVF, and the older generation's deeply ingrained ideas that "of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is to have no offspring" meant that many infertile wives would be abandoned.
Li Duomei said, "One reason is that I can't have children, and another is that I feel that Hu Wei and I don't have anything in common."
“Especially after I started working, we just couldn’t see eye to eye. Even if he hadn’t been seeing other women, I would still have gotten a divorce.”
Lin Shanshan nodded; she knew Li Duomei wasn't the kind of woman who would cry and whine for a man.
"However, even if you want a divorce, you and Hu Wei are still husband and wife. That Jasmine is the other woman, so you can't let her off so easily."
Lin Shanshan stood up for Li Duomei.
Li Duomei said, "I don't want to let her off easily either, but her father is the director of the Yunjin Textile Factory. I'm afraid. I don't care about myself, but my mother is a teacher at the elementary school in their Yunjin Textile Factory. I'm afraid that Jasmine's father will retaliate against my mother."
Lin Shanshan asked, "You just need to tell me, do you want to teach them a lesson?"
"I'd rather fight for my pride than for a steamed bun!"
Li Duomei spoke with unwavering resolve.
"That's fine, I'll take care of everything!" Lin Shanshan said, taking full responsibility.
Thanks to Douyin (TikTok), Lin Shanshan saw a video in the underworld showing how to ruin a mistress's reputation without lifting a finger.
