How could Tang Gaoyi dare to hit Shi Nanyue?
Tang An took a step forward. "Grandma, it was my dad who hit me."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shi's eyes were filled with shock. She then turned to look at Shi Nanyue, "Was it really Gao Yi who did it?"
Shi Nanyue immediately burst into tears again, "Yes, Mom, you have to stand up for me this time! Tang Gaoyi is a monster. Now he's not only abandoned his wife and children, but he's also abusing his wife!"
“If I hadn’t married him back then, he would still be a poor boy now! And now he’s turned his back on me.”
Madam Shi frowned slightly. "So many years have passed! Why do you keep repeating the same thing? How many times have I told you that a couple should respect each other? And what about you? How do you treat Gao Yi? In your presence, Gao Yi is no different from a servant!"
"Tell me, why did Gao Yi hit you? I don't believe he would hit someone for no reason!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Nanyue felt utterly miserable with nowhere to vent her grievances. She was the one being abused by the family, but the old lady Shi was doing just fine!
She actually sided with a foreign man!
Is this really something a mother should say?
"Mom, Tang Gaoyi is getting more and more arrogant. Don't be fooled by his honest appearance! I'm going to divorce him this time!"
"Stop bringing up divorce all the time!" Old Madam Shi continued, "Even if you don't tell me the reason, I already know. He must have had no choice but to hit you. You hit him first, didn't you?"
"Even though I started it, he can't hit me!" Shi Nanyue said defiantly. "He's no good at business outside, but he's number one at beating his wife at home!"
Madam Shi continued, "Go find Gao Yi and apologize to him. Don't be so domineering in the future, otherwise Gao Yi will really divorce you!"
"You want me to apologize to him? No way!" Shi Nanyue's tone rose instantly. "Divorce is divorce then! Who's afraid of who! It's not him who wants a divorce, it's me who wants a divorce!"
Madam Shi sighed, "Do you have to make things so tense? You've been married to Gao Yi for over twenty years, and for all of that time, he's been bowing down to you. Can't you bow down to him too?"
"Lowering my head is impossible! I married him, which was already a step down for me! I, Shi Nanyue, was once a famous beauty in the capital, with countless high-ranking and powerful men lining up to pursue me, but I was blind enough to fall for him!" At this point, Shi Nanyue looked at Old Madam Shi, "Mom, you don't need to worry about my affairs with him. He's going to lower his head! I'll make him kneel down and apologize to me live!"
Madam Shi shook her head helplessly, "Just don't regret it."
Men have dignity.
Moreover, Tang Gaoyi has endured this for so many years.
But Madam Shi had already said everything she needed to say, and Shi Nanyue wouldn't listen, so there was nothing she could do.
Shi Nanyue narrowed her eyes. What did she have to regret?
The person who should really regret it is Tang Gaoyi!
After leaving the Shi family manor and returning to the Tang family villa, Shi Nanyue immediately called the villa's housekeeper, "Zhang Ma, go and fetch Tang Gaoyi for me!"
Zhang Ma looked troubled. "Madam, sir, sir moved out last night."
They moved out?
Upon hearing this, Shi Nanyue slammed her hand on the table and stood up. "Fine! Fine! Tang Gaoyi, you've got it! I'll see how long he can hold out outside! He better never come back to beg me for anything in his life!"
At this point, Shi Nanyue continued, "Go and throw everything related to Tang Gaoyi outside!"
This time, she was determined to show Tang Gaoyi what she was capable of.

Hong Kong.
Johnson Hospital.
Smith sat in his office, while his student Grett stood respectfully before him, saying, "Dean, I've investigated Miss Shi. She's the granddaughter of the Si family in Hong Kong and the heir to the Shi family in Beijing."
Smith was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Jiang Ning to have such a distinguished status.
At this point, Gretel added, "Now, all we can do is wait for Miss Ryan's reply."
Smith narrowed his eyes. "Miss Ryan has been in the capital for three days and still hasn't replied. It seems that Miss Shi is unwilling to meet with me."
Smith also wants to learn from Jiang Ning and win an international award.
Now it seems...
Disaster.
If Jiang Ning had agreed, Xilia wouldn't have gone so many days without replying.
Upon hearing this, Gretel frowned slightly. "As expected, all Chinese people are so petty and lack a sense of the bigger picture! She probably refuses to meet you because she's afraid you're more talented than her and will surpass her internationally in the future!"
"You were exchanging medical knowledge with her to treat and save lives, but she, for her own selfish desires, actually refused to exchange ideas! How can there be such a selfish person in the world?"
Smith shrugged helplessly. "Chinese people have always been this selfish."
Grete seemed to have thought of something. "Right, Dean, since she's unwilling to meet with you, let's find a way to get that prescription. As long as we get the prescription, even without her help, we can still conquer epilepsy and win the international patent award!"
Smith lit a cigarette. "The prescription is with Miss Lane, but she's unwilling to hand it over. What can we do?"
“There is a way.” Gretel narrowed his eyes.
"What's the solution?" Smith stopped smoking and looked up at Gretel.
Jiang Ning's prescription was indeed tempting.
If you get it, you're guaranteed to win many awards and countless amounts of money.
Grett's lips curled slightly, a calculating glint in his eyes: "Dean, as far as I know, Jennifer, who works for Miss Ryan, is as close to her as a sister. If we can win Jennifer over, we won't have to worry about not getting that prescription!"
