The landmine that Chang's younger uncle planted was planted long ago. Chang Jing remembered that in his previous life, Chang Jianmin was discovered to be keeping a mistress during this period, so he now wanted to dig out this landmine and detonate it.
Using a little spare time after class, Chang Jing found out in just a few days which neighborhood, which building, and even which apartment her uncle's new mistress lived in.
After figuring out Chang's uncle's private life and taking some photos as evidence, Chang Jing casually sent an anonymous letter to Chang's aunt.
"Now that the year is almost over, everyone should work overtime to stock up on peanut oil. Starting next week, people from nearby villages will have to come to buy oil to prepare for frying New Year's goods."
The youngest aunt of the Chang family has been supervising the workers at the oil frying factory these past few days. She comes to keep an eye on things as the year draws to a close, when the oil frying factory is at its busiest and most profitable.
"Ah Xiao, what are you standing there for? There are so many customers queuing up. Hurry up and help pour the oil."
Seeing Aunt Lu Xiao standing frozen at the kitchen door, Aunt Chang shouted something, which ignited Aunt Chang's anger.
"I have to go out for a while."
With that, Lu Xiao threw off her apron and rushed out, completely unaware that Chang Qiuqun was so busy she wished she had more hands, and also failing to notice that a photo had slipped out with her movements.
Chang Qiuqun called out to Lu Xiao several times but couldn't stop him. His face turned very ugly, so he had no choice but to put on an apron and go help.
When Lu Xiao saw the photos of her husband being intimate with another woman, she lost her mind and rushed out of the oil press to go to the power supply bureau to find Chang Jianmin and get the truth out of him.
"Chang Jianmin, tell me, are you having an affair? Who is the woman in this photo?"
Lu Xiao's greatest pride was marrying a husband who was completely obedient to her. The scene in the photo broke her defenses, so at this moment, Lu Xiao lost all her usual shrewdness and frantically wanted to know the truth.
"Lu Xiao, shut up right now. Let's talk outside. This is the workplace."
Chang Jianmin was stunned and quickly covered the other person's mouth, trying to pull him out of the office.
Is this crazy woman still his shrewd and rational wife? Doesn't she know this is his workplace?
Chang Jianmin, who is always self-centered, was not afraid that his wife would find out about his affair, but was angry that Lu Xiao was inconsiderate and caused trouble at his workplace, making him lose face.
After finally managing to pull the man out of the office, Lu Xiao became uncooperative before they even left the company premises. She shoved Chang Jianmin aside and confronted him on the company's playground.
"Tell me, are you having an affair? Tell me!"
Lu Xiao held the anonymous letter in one hand and pushed and pulled Chang Jianmin with the other, without any regard for the fact that this was Chang Jianmin's workplace.
"Who told you that? That's not true. Don't go crazy here. Lu Xiao, don't you know how I've treated you? You control all the money in the house, and I listen to you in everything. How could I possibly have someone else outside!"
As expected of the Chang family's most skilled persuaders, their words were reasonable, well-founded, and full of emotion. If it weren't for that letter and those photos, Lu Xiao might have been fooled, but now…
Lu Xiao felt that the man in front of her was too good at making excuses. He could lie so easily and even make it sound so affectionate, which made her heart ache.
"Chang Jianmin, you're still so good at flattering people. Do you dare say you don't recognize the woman in the photo? The woman who lives in Garden Community."
Oh no, how did Lu Xiao get these photos? How did she even know Xiao Man's address? I need to find a way to calm Lu Xiao down and prevent her from causing a scene here.
"The photo is photoshopped, it's definitely photoshopped, don't overthink it. Think about it, I don't have any money on me, what woman would be with a man who has no money, right!"
"Do you think I'm stupid? Your mother subsidizes you every month, do you need money? Chang Jianmin, if you honestly admit your mistakes to me, I can give you a chance to make amends. If you keep lying to me, then let's go to Garden Community together."
Now Lu Xiao also wanted to try to outsmart the other party. She took a deep breath and pretended that she could forgive him generously as long as he confessed.
"..." Chang Jianmin glanced at Lu Xiao and then lowered his head in silence, seemingly weighing the credibility of Lu Xiao's words or thinking about how to resolve the current predicament.
"Xiaoxiao, can we talk about this tonight? You've really misunderstood me. This is my workplace, and I don't want this misunderstanding to escalate. You know I'm about to get a promotion."
Delay, we must delay! Several thoughts flashed through Chang Jianmin's mind, but he dared not make a decision. He could only try to stall the matter and prevent Lu Xiao from causing trouble at his workplace.
"Okay, I won't make a scene. But if I don't get a good explanation tonight, you'll see how crazy I can get."
Now Lu Xiao was basically certain that Chang Jianmin was keeping a mistress, and she instantly regained her composure. She told herself that she couldn't make a scene now, after all, the money in her bank account hadn't been transferred out yet, and she hadn't gotten the money from the old lady of the Chang family to buy the property she had her eye on.
Lu Xiao calmed herself down, and after leaving Chang Jianmin's workplace, she made a phone call to her brother-in-law who worked at the court. At this moment, she needed someone to support her and give her advice.
"Sister Xiao, I suggest you get enough evidence before thinking about divorce. If you have enough evidence, the division of your family's property and the issue of child custody can be resolved well."
The call lasted about twenty minutes. After hanging up, Lu Xiao went straight to her brother-in-law's workplace.
Chang Qiuqun, who worked at the oil frying plant, finally finished dealing with a group of customers and wanted to go to the kitchen for a drink of water when a photo shocked her so much that she dropped her cup.
"What...what's going on?"
A photo of her beloved younger brother strolling with a strange woman. Immediately, she thought of Lu Xiao, who had just run out, and with that connection, Chang Qiuqun understood the reason for Lu Xiao's unusual behavior.
"This time it's probably bad. With Lu Xiao's personality, Jianmin's family is probably doomed."
The thought that her most beloved younger brother had made such a mistake filled Chang Qiuqun with both anger and worry. In the end, she felt she couldn't ignore it, so she hurriedly went to the Chang family home after giving instructions about the oil frying plant.
That evening at the Chang family home, the two elders, along with Chang Jianmin and Chang Qiuqun, sat in the living room waiting for Lu Xiao. After their previous discussion, Chang Jianmin no longer had the solemn expression he had at work.
Instead, the two elders of the Chang family and the youngest sister-in-law of the Chang family had worried and solemn expressions on their faces. It was clear that every time Chang Jianmin got into trouble, someone would go to great lengths to help him smooth things over, and this time was no exception.
When Lu Xiao returned, the old lady of the Chang family used the excuse of taking the two children of the Chang family downstairs to buy snacks to avoid the negotiation.
"Ah Xiao, you're back. Come and sit down. Dad has something to tell you."
The old master of the Chang family politely invited Lu Xiao over. This kind of polite treatment was something that Chang Guomin and Song Huizhen had never seen before, which showed how much favoritism the two old men of the Chang family had.
