Zhao Qinglan never expected that the instigator of all this would be Li Huai's stepmother, Yu Huimin.
When Li Huai told her about it after he got home from get off work, she was incredibly surprised.
However, he quickly figured it out.
Like Li Huai, she was extremely grateful that the person was Yu Huimin.
She felt ashamed for her father-in-law, Li Zhenhua, when she recalled his previous behavior.
That day, after the wonton shop closed, Mrs. Sun sent her daughter out to call her eldest daughter.
To be honest, Zhao Qinglan was definitely angry when she learned about her father-in-law Li Zhenhua's behavior.
But when she thought about Li Zhenhua's current state of mind, she found it funny, and even a little schadenfreude.
After Li Zhenhua left, he didn't return to the military region. Instead, he had someone take them directly to the train station and buy them the nearest train tickets to return to the capital.
For two days in a row, Yu Huimin did not receive a reply from Zhu Yuqin. When she called to find her, the other party said that Zhu Yuqin was not there, which made her feel uneasy.
Just as I was feeling uneasy, Li Zhenhua returned.
Upon opening the door and seeing her husband, Yu Huimin revealed a heartfelt joy.
"Old Li, you're finally back! Sit down and rest. Have you eaten yet? I'll have the housekeeper cook."
"No need, sit down, I have something to tell you," he said seriously.
The aunt who came out after hearing the commotion was also waved away by him.
"What's wrong, Lao Li? You look like something serious has happened." Yu Huimin's smile became a little forced.
"I'm asking you, do you know a woman named Zhu Yuqin?"
"What Zhu Yuqin?" Yu Huimin's face froze as soon as she realized what was going on. She immediately said, "Old Li, what are you saying?" She pretended to be stupid.
Although she reacted quickly, her instinctive reaction upon hearing Zhu Yuqin's name just now still didn't miss Li Zhenhua's eyes.
"So, it really was you who instructed that Zhu Yuqin to do those stupid things!" Li Zhenhua couldn't help but raise his voice.
"Old Li, what are you saying? I don't understand." Although she was very nervous inside, Yu Huimin still denied it on the surface.
"Ha, if you don't understand, then all those phone calls Zhu Yuqin made to our house, were they all calls to ghosts?" he mocked.
As soon as she heard the phone call, Zhu Yuqin knew something was wrong.
But what followed was even more despairing.
“That Zhu Yuqin has already given up your name and everything you instructed her to do.”
"Old Li, it's me." Yu Huimin became anxious.
"Are you really going to make them pull out those call records and evidence of the money you transferred to that woman before you'll admit it?" Li Zhenhua felt he had never been so angry before.
When he returned, he still held onto a sliver of hope, even wondering if someone else in his family had borrowed their phone.
But all of this was shattered by his wife's reaction.
"Old Li, I was wrong. I was bewitched. I... I just saw Li Huai making you angry, and I felt sorry for you. I just wanted to teach him a lesson to vent my anger for you." In her desperation, she still managed to find the best excuse for herself.
"You feel sorry for me and want to scold him? What about all the things you said to me? You kept saying it was for Li Huai's own good, is that all you care about him?"
Li Zhenhua isn't stupid; his wife's hypocritical behavior has already diminished his trust in her.
Moreover, even if Li Huai was angry with him, that was still his son. How could he tolerate his son being schemed against and treated like this by the person next to him?
Most importantly, he lost face in public because he was angry.
"Old Li, I know I was wrong. It's all my fault. Please forgive me this time. I promise I'll never do it again. I did it all for you and for this family." Yu Huimin panicked and burst into tears.
The auntie hiding in the kitchen was shocked when she heard the commotion outside.
Seeing his wife weeping bitterly, Li Zhenhua sighed softly.
What can he do? What else can he do? They've been living together for almost twenty years, and their son is all grown up. Is he really going to give up on their life because of this?
He is now only thankful that his wife hasn't made a serious mistake.
Seeing that her husband's anger had lessened after a quick glance, Yu Huimin began to cry.
"Old Li, I've followed you for so many years, don't you know what kind of person I am? Have I ever done anything to make you feel bad? This time, I was really confused. Even if you don't care about me, please don't hold a grudge against me for Xiao Wei's sake, I'm scared."
Seeing his wife looking so weak and helpless, Li Zhenhua felt a pang of sympathy.
Yes, over the years, my wife has done a great job in every way.
Everyone makes mistakes.
He had originally planned to reprimand his wife to teach her a lesson and then let the matter drop.
Now, I feel more and more at ease.
"Sigh, from now on, stop overthinking and just live your life properly."
Hearing her husband's relent, Yu Huimin burst into tears of joy. "Old Li, you've forgiven me?" Her husband was her only support at the moment, and naturally she couldn't let him give up on her.
"You are not allowed to make any further moves against Li Huai, understand?"
"I understand. Don't worry, I will only focus on living with you from now on and will no longer care about Li Huai."
"That's good."
Overjoyed, Yu Huimin rushed forward and hugged her husband's neck.
"Old Li, I've been scared at home while you've been gone. I miss you so much."
Seeing his wife's charming appearance, Li Zhenhua, who had also been deprived of sex for many days, felt a lump in his throat.
