Ma Yuanmei's words were like a thunderclap, making Guo Yulin and his wife's ears buzz and their faces turn pale and blue. They simply couldn't believe what she said.
Guo Yulin took a long while to digest Ma Yuanmei's words. She had always been gentle and generally would not have conflicts with others, but this matter involved Shen Yanxiang's reputation, and her tone became anxious.
"What other woman? Mother-in-law, don't say such things. Yan Xiang is definitely not that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding."
Shen Dewen's face was also gloomy as ink, and he echoed: "If he really does something ridiculous like this, I will be the first one to not forgive him."
"What other woman could it be? Isn't it that college classmate that Chen Yanxiang still misses until now, named Fu something? Wu Yi, what was the name of that woman you mentioned last time? I suddenly can't remember it."
Wu Yi had only told her once, so Ma Yuanmei really couldn't remember it for a while. After hesitating for a while, she still couldn't remember it. She could only poke Wu Yi with her arm, asking her to tell her the woman's name.
Wu Yi did not respond nor pay attention to Ma Yuanmei's little gesture. She lowered her head helplessly and closed her eyes. Her originally uneasy heart slowly calmed down after everything was said.
Guo Yulin was shocked by Ma Yuanmei's words. When she just mentioned her surname, a vague name immediately popped up in her mind: Fu Ningrou.
Chen Yanxiang had a girlfriend in college. They had a good relationship and were even talking about marriage. However, after graduation, Fu Ningrou returned to Hai City, and the marriage was delayed again and again. In the end, it ended in failure because Fu Ningrou went to study in the United States.
...
...
In the first year after their breakup, Chen Yanxiang hastily got married to Wu Yi, who was pregnant before marriage. Over the years, they have never heard from each other again.
I didn't expect to hear it again in this way.
Does Ma Yuanmei mean that Chen Yanxiang and Fu Ningrou rekindled their old love, which is why they don't want to return to Beijing? Wu Yi found out about this and wanted to divorce Shen Yanxiang?
Guo Yulin believed in her eldest son's character and believed that he would never do anything shameful like cheating on his wife. However, her belief did not mean that Wu Yi and Ma Yuanmei would believe it.
After a moment of silence, Wu Yi opened her eyes and spoke: "Mom and Dad, Yan Xiang and I got married because of an accident after drinking. There is no love between us. He doesn't like me. If we continue to live together, the contradiction will only get bigger and bigger."
The reason why she and Shen Yanxiang have a story is because of her greed, which allowed her to become Mrs. Shen, while this position should have belonged to Fu Ningrou. Even if it wasn't her, it would have been another woman.
In short, it won't be hers.
After occupying it for so many years, it's time to give it back.
Thinking of this, her expression became much calmer, and she even managed a smile: "Why not take this opportunity to get a divorce? This will be better for everyone."
"I came back this time to clean up all my things. As for other things, I don't want anything, but I will fight for the custody of the two children to the end."
As soon as these words came out, before Guo Yulin and Shen Dewen had time to say anything, Ma Yuanmei on the side was the first to explode: "What divorce? Are you stupid, you dead girl? This marriage must not be divorced!"
In her opinion, what her son-in-law did was unfair to Wu Yi, but which man doesn't cheat? The Shen family's conditions are so good that it's hard to find a good family even with a lantern. Shen Yanxiang himself is also very hardworking and his salary is very high. He will become a high-ranking official in the future.
By then, Wu Yi would be a pampered official's wife. She wouldn't care about the mistresses. She would just be patient and take advantage of their guilt to ask for more benefits.
divorce? What good can you get from divorce? Not only did he lose both his money and his life, but he also gave way to the mistress. Why?
"Mom, stop talking. I'm getting a divorce!"
Seeing her resolute eyes, Ma Yuanmei was stunned at first, and then she slapped her arm in anger: "If we really get divorced, how are you going to live as a woman with two young children?"
Ma Yuanmei came this time with the intention of talking things out in front of Guo Yulin and his wife, and then asking them to put pressure on Shen Yanxiang to get him to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
In this way, the guy named Fu, who is far away in Hai City, won't be able to get involved. Even if he is shameless enough to chase all the way to Jing City, they, the elders, are watching over him, and he won't be able to cause any trouble.
She didn't want Wu Yi and Shen Yanxiang to divorce!
"I've found a job as an English translator at home. I can take good care of the two children. You don't have to worry about this, mom."
Upon hearing this, everyone else was stunned. They didn't expect that Wu Yi had even found a job.
Wu Yi was willing to be a housewife at home for so many years for Chen Yanxiang. They actually forgot that she was also a college student, majoring in English, and was a very outstanding person. In this era of talent shortage, it was easy for her to find a job.
It seems that she is really determined to break up with Shen Yanxiang.
Guo Yulin felt mixed emotions and couldn't help but sigh. When she first learned that Wu Yi was pregnant before marriage, she thought she was a scheming woman who wanted to use the child to gain power.
But after so many years of being together, her impression of Wu Yi had long changed, and she was satisfied with her in every way. However, as she herself said, she and Shen Yanxiang had no emotional foundation, and now this kind of thing has happened. If it is not properly resolved, it will be really difficult for them to continue living together.
"Anyway, divorce is a big deal. My attitude is to call Yan Xiang back from Hai City first, and then you two can have a frank talk. If you still want to separate from Yan Xiang, we can talk about it separately."
Wu Yi agreed, knowing that divorce would not be resolved in a short time. She was not too worried that Shen Yanxiang would not agree to the divorce. She was more worried about the custody of the child...
After a moment of silence, Wu Yi was about to send Ma Yuanmei back home. Guo Yulin said at the right time: "I'll call the driver to come and send my mother-in-law back."
Wu Yi glanced at the sky outside, did not refuse, and nodded: "Then I'll trouble you, Mom."
Ma Yuanmei, who was standing by, held her head and sighed, "Oh, what is going on?"

Zhou Yunwan felt a little heavy-hearted when she saw the two brothers Shen Yue and Shen Chuan, who had no interest in any toys.
For children, the greatest harm is caused by their parents’ discord.
The children may not say it, but they know very well in their hearts that cracks have appeared in their parents' relationship.
Not to mention, my parents are on the verge of divorce.
Zhou Yunwan felt the same way, but at the same time she was powerless and could only try her best to make them happy.
