Zhao Guohui knew that Xu Laolai was a man who would shine brightly if given a little sunshine. He decided to speak directly to avoid Xu Laolai from making plans. Besides, it was already noon, and Meiru said she was hungry! It was just right, so he could take Meiru out for lunch and then come back to clean up the house.
"Zhao Guohui, forget it. The house belongs to Liqin. Why do you ask us to move out?" Xu Laolai was not going to stand for it anymore. Seeing that his big house had become a bubble, Xu Laolai almost went crazy.
Zhao Guohui turned his head and looked at Xu Liqin who was wiping her tears. Seeing Zhao Guohui staring at her, Xu Liqin choked up and said, "Guo... Guohui, I said you lent me the house temporarily, but... but my dad doesn't believe it."
"Yes, why didn't my daughter Liqin earn a house after being with you for three years? You didn't distribute the property fairly during the divorce." Old Lai Xu started to make a fuss, saying, "I don't care. I won't move anyway. Zhao Guohui, if you want to take back the house, you have to step over my dead body."
Wow? There's such a bizarre theory! The crowd was once again shocked.
Although divorces are rare in Sanhe Town, they do exist. When a couple gets married, the man usually provides the house. Even if a couple can no longer live together and files for divorce, the best man will at most give the woman some money. Which couple would give the woman the house they worked so hard to buy after divorce?
"Guo...Guohui, please give me some time, I...I will persuade my dad, otherwise, let me live in your house and I will pay you rent every month?" Xu Liqin felt embarrassed and helpless when she saw Xu Laolai's appearance. When Xu Laolai started to play tricks, he would not listen to any reason.
"Xu Liqin, I've said it long ago that no one else can live in this house except you. Since you have no ability to stop them, I can only take it back myself. As for the rent, I'm not that short of money." Zhao Guohui said with a straight face. Zhao Guohui was very dissatisfied with Xu Liqin. Xu Liqin made excuses for Xu Laolai again and again, which is why Xu Laolai asked Xu Liqin for money again and again. If Xu Liqin didn't act tougher, it would be impossible for her to get rid of Xu Laolai's exploitation and oppression.
However, given Xu Liqin's personality, Zhao Guohui didn't want to talk about her anymore. After all, they had divorced a long time ago, and from now on, they would have no more interactions.
"Yes, it's my fault, but Guohui, can't you give me another chance?" Xu Liqin raised her face and asked pitifully.
Opportunity? You took it away yourself. Zhao Guohui closed his eyes and shook his head. If it weren't for Xu Laolai's occupation of the house, Zhao Guohui wouldn't have planned to take it back. Anyway, he and Meiru were going to Kyoto in a few days, so even if he took it back, the house would be empty.
After Xu Laolai's stunt, Zhao Guohui was determined to reclaim the house. Sometimes, the softer you are, the more likely people will treat you as a demanding fool. Zhao Guohui didn't want to have to pay for Xu Laolai's actions after the divorce. Today it was the house, but what about tomorrow? Even with his good temper, Zhao Guohui couldn't stand Xu Laolai's relentless demands.
Xu Liqin had been confused for so many years, and Zhao Guohui had not been able to change her mindset during the continuation of their marriage. In the days to come, Zhao Guohui would definitely not pay attention to Xu Liqin's life, so as not to disturb his own life.
When Xu Liqin said she wanted to rent a house, wasn't she just trying to find a way out for Xu Laolai? It was also a disguised way of asking Zhao Guohui to keep the house for her. How could Zhao Guohui not hear it?
But the past is the past, and the present is the present. Back then, Zhao Guohui was single after his divorce, and everything he did was solely about his own feelings. Now, Zhao Guohui has Yu Meiru by his side, and he's letting his ex-wife live in his house? How could Zhao Guohui do something so easily misunderstood by Yu Meiru?
"Xu Liqin, you have to understand that our relationship is a thing of the past. I didn't consider before that letting you live in my house would be bad for you to find a partner in the future." Zhao Guohui's words were like an ice knife stabbing Xu Liqin's heart.
This was the first time Xu Liqin had seen Zhao Guohui like this. Did he want to stay away from her after the divorce? Did he give all his tenderness to the women around him? Xu Liqin was about to burst into tears just thinking about it.
"Sister, you can move to my dormitory and live with me first, and then apply for a dormitory from your unit!" Seeing this, Xu Meiqi hurried out to smooth things over.
After watching for so long, Xu Meiqin understood that Zhao Guohui was determined to sever ties with their Xu family today. If Xu Liqin continued to pester him, it would only wear away the last bit of Zhao Guohui's affection. Didn't you see that Zhao Guohui was getting more and more impatient?
"Okay." Xu Liqin choked back a reply and stopped talking. After being married for several years, Xu Liqin knew Zhao Guohui's temper. Once Zhao Guohui made a decision, no one could really change it. She had said so much before, but in fact, it was all because of the resentment in her heart. Xu Liqin smiled bitterly.
"I won't move. Even if I die, I'd rather die here." Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Xu Laolai was still unwilling to give up. He ran to the yard of Zhao Guohui's house and fell to the ground, making it clear that he would not do what Zhao Guohui said.
Wu Dani and her three children stayed in the house and did not dare to come out. When Zhao Guohui was still the son-in-law of the Xu family, he had never been kind to Xu Dafu and Wu Dani. Wu Dani was always afraid of Zhao Guohui.
"Make way, make way. The police station is handling a case. Everyone please disperse." Lao Jiang's voice rang out from behind the crowd.
Lao Jiang is an old policeman from Sanhe Town Police Station. Many people in Sanhe Town know him. When they saw Lao Jiang coming, the crowd dispersed with a bang. However, there were still a few brave ones who stayed nearby to see how today's incident would end.
When Zhao Guohui saw the police officers Lao Jiang and Xiao Zhang, he couldn't help but glance at Yu Meiru beside him.
Yu Meiru nodded, admitting that she had called the police. Just before she left the crowd, she called a teenage boy on the street, gave him fifty cents, and asked him to go to the police station to report the crime.
The corners of Zhao Guohui's mouth curled up involuntarily. He knew that Meiru was always very thoughtful in everything she did. With Old Lai Xu in this state, there was really no way to solve the problem without calling in the police.
"You broke into a private house and occupied other people's property, Xu Laolai, do you want to go to jail for a few years for free?" Old Jiang stared at Xu Laolai, who was sleeping and making a fuss on the ground, with disgust, and shouted majestically.
