Chapter 309 I Lost Again



The VIP rooms are located on the third floor of the coffee shop.

Li Mengjiao took out a wet wipe to wipe her daughter's sweat. The father and daughter were having a lot of fun and had been playing for fifteen minutes.

“Honey, I’ve contacted the insurance company headquarters. Your one million insurance payout will take at least six months to arrive.”

"People have very short memories. Who will remember Brothers Supermarket six months from now? And even if they do, what difference will it make?"

"You can't wait six months, and neither can the people of the provincial capital. Honey, do you understand what I'm saying?"

After Li Mengjiao finished speaking, she took out a wet wipe and carefully wiped the sweat from Wang Peng's forehead.

Wang Peng nodded, took the wet wipe from her hand, and carefully wiped the sweat off his daughter.

Li Mengjiao sighed softly, "I can invest one million in you, and we can reopen Brothers in at least a month. If one million isn't enough, I'll offer two million."

“I bought your Audi A6, and I can transfer the ownership to you right away. If you don’t want it, I’ll buy you a new one.”

“If you don’t want to stay in the provincial capital, we can go to Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou. Wherever you want to go, I’ll open a supermarket there.”

At this point, Li Mengjiao chuckled, "Husband, I only have one request: divorce her and marry me."

After wiping the sweat from his daughter's face, Wang Peng saw her yawning, so he stood up, picked her up, and took her for a walk.

"Don't say anything yet, our daughter wants to sleep," Wang Peng said.

Two minutes later, Wang Buhui yawned twice, and two minutes after that, his daughter fell asleep in her father's arms.

Li Mengjiao called her parents in, and the couple took their granddaughter to the next room.

After closing the door, only two people remained in the room.

Li Mengjiao hugged Wang Peng, looked at his face, and said, "Honey, promise me, okay?"

"Don't you want to stay by Bu Hui's side? Don't you want Bu Hui to receive a father's love?"

“I can give you my James Bond. I can be a housewife at home. I love you. I beg you to give our daughter a complete family.”

At this point, tears welled up in Li Mengjiao's eyes.

Wang Peng gave a wry smile. "Mingzhu is pregnant too. What can I do?"

He touched Li Mengjiao's face and said, "I have never done anything wrong in my life, and I have never wronged anyone, except you and your daughter."

"It's all my fault. I was blinded by lust back then, which not only ruined you but also ruined Bu Hui."

“I can do anything for you except get a divorce. I’ve already wronged one mother and child, I can’t wrong another one.”

"Mengjiao, do you understand?"

Wang Peng looked up and let out a long sigh, a lump in his throat.

Li Mengjiao shook her head, "I don't need you to do anything, I just want you to marry me."

She pushed Wang Peng away forcefully, turned her back to him, and said, "My patience is limited. You can go find that woman now."

"But you'll never get that million-dollar insurance payout in your lifetime, I'm telling you."

"You'll never be able to make a comeback in this lifetime. You two can just go sell paintings on the street."

"Her proud One Piece novel will be taken off the shelves by the cultural authorities tomorrow, and she can forget about ever getting it published again."

As she finished speaking, Li Mengjiao clenched her fists.

"Wang Peng, I've given you so many chances, but you always choose that woman. What do I lack compared to her?"

"We met first, we're childhood sweethearts."

Li Mengjiao turned around and stared at Wang Peng, "Tell me, in what way am I inferior to her?"

Wang Peng stood there stunned, never expecting that Li Mengjiao would say such a thing.

In what ways is she inferior to Li Mingzhu?

Wang Peng thought and thought, and could only think of one possibility: in his previous life, his wife was Li Mingzhu, not Li Mengjiao.

“Mengjiao, as long as you’re happy, I can forgo that million-dollar insurance payout.”

"You can also suggest that the relevant departments remove One Piece from the shelves, and I can go to the streets to sell paintings, just like I am now."

"I owe you all of this. If you ask me to pay it back, I will."

"I still stand by what I said: I have already let down one mother and child, and I cannot let down another one."

At this point, Wang Peng sighed deeply, walked past Li Mengjiao, and reached the door of the private room.

"Wang Peng!" Li Mengjiao's voice cracked as she angrily said, "If you dare to step out of this door, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life."

Wang Peng looked at the stairwell, shook his head with a wry smile, and strode out of the door.

He won't regret leaving this door; he'll regret not leaving it for the rest of his life.

I walked from the third floor to the first floor and stood outside the glass door of the coffee shop.

Looking at the Brothers Supermarket, a mix of black and white, I suddenly felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

In the VIP room on the third floor, Li Mengjiao was in tears, biting her lip to stop herself from crying out loud.

I failed, defeated by that woman once again.

James Bond is already one of the world's most famous condom brands, and she has achieved financial freedom, proving her business acumen.

She visited renowned teachers to learn painting, became an amateur painter, and proved her painting ability.

Even after she gave birth to a daughter, the daughter won her father's favor, giving her a significant advantage.

However, she still couldn't steal the man away from that woman.

Li Longfei entered the private room and locked the door.

"Dad!" Li Mengjiao hugged him and burst into tears, crying her heart out.

Li Longfei looked up, forcing back tears, "Good boy, you know his temper. Pressing him like this will only backfire."

The only response he received was crying; Li Mengjiao trembled all over.

"Sigh!" Li Longfei shook his head. "What's so good about him? With your current status, what kind of talented young man can't you find?"

Li Mengjiao remained silent, continuing to cry.

Li Longfei stopped trying to persuade her. His daughter had the same temper as Wang Peng; they were both the type to go down a path they were determined to take.

Even if you hit a wall, you won't turn back. Instead, you'll keep hitting it until you either die on the wall or until it collapses and you continue heading south.

Outside the Brothers Supermarket, Li Mingzhu tried her best not to look at Hongyun Coffee Shop.

She drew the cartoon portraits of the young couple to a very poor standard.

"Sorry, I'm not really in the zone today." She took the drawing paper off the easel, crumpled it up, and threw it into the trash can.

He took two One Piece books out of the box and said, "Gentlemen, I've wasted your time. Here are these two books to make up for it."

"No need," the boy hurriedly waved his hand. "Sister Mingzhu, you've been distracted the whole time, you definitely won't draw well."

The girl asked疑惑地, "Sister Mingzhu, is it because of Brother Peng?"

"No," Li Mingzhu waved her hand. "I'm probably too sleepy and can't concentrate."

...

"Since we're tired, let's pack up and go home, honey!"

Li Mingzhu looked up abruptly and was immediately dazzled by the sight of her husband standing in front of her.

She rubbed her eyes, then chuckled, "Honey, you're back?"

Wang Peng nodded. "Just now, an unprofessional doctor said I had a poor appetite and suggested that I should live off a woman, but I didn't listen to her advice."

“I’ll tackle even the toughest challenges without hesitation. Why would I want to be a kept man?” Wang Peng said with a smile.

"Husband, haha." Li Mingzhu laughed, but then she started to cry.
