Chapter 444【VIP】
Qiqi's wish soon came true. After the Lunar New Year, her maternal grandparents and her uncle from the countryside unexpectedly arrived in Linshi without a word. Inside the small room at the Grain Bureau, Zhu Zhu's father had a gloomy face, while her mother burst into tears. Her younger brother, Zhu Hong, was furious, cursing his brother-in-law, Fang Yuan.
"Zhu Zhu, is this what you mean by everything is fine?" Zhu Gang slammed the table, his face flushed red, as if a person who was choking was beating his chest desperately, as if only this could relieve the stuffiness in his chest.
"No, the Fang family is bullying my daughter like this. We must go and demand an explanation." Wang Xiang looked at Zhu Zhu with a distressed expression. If she had known earlier, she would not have followed her daughter's wishes. This time, they must divorce. There was no reason for her daughter to be a widow in the Fang family.
Zhu Zhu blinked rapidly, trying to appear more nonchalant. But years of accumulated grievances were not so easily suppressed. It was like a dam bursting; even adding another shovel of dirt wouldn't help.
She nestled in her mother's arms and sobbed, countless grievances coming to her like tangled threads, and she didn't know where to begin.
Qiqi also burst into tears and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, you are finally here."
Seeing his daughter and granddaughter cry, Zhu Gang calmed down. Although he was only a small team leader, he handled a lot of personnel matters on a daily basis. So he gave a direct order: "Divorce, you two must divorce."
"Dad, I'm afraid I can't take Qiqi with me." After all these years, her heart had grown cold. But she couldn't bear to part with her daughter. As the saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. Fang Yuan had even given away his lucrative business, let alone his daughter, whom he barely cared about.
Liu Xiang asked her youngest son to take Qiqi out for a walk before she said, "My daughter, it's not that I'm cruel, but if you remarry, it will always be inconvenient to take care of a child. Also, if you leave the child with the Fang family, according to current policies, even if Fang Yuan and Liu Qingqing get married, they won't be able to have a second child. Qiqi will still be Fang Yuan's only offspring. Men love in their youth, but when they get older, they always think about their own children. If Fang Yuan becomes successful in the future, all the benefits will belong to Qiqi."
"Mom, forget it. For Liu Qingqing, there is nothing Fangyuan can't give up." Then Zhu Zhu told her parents about the doll business.
Zhu Gang was furious. "So you've been lying to your parents all these years? What did you say about Fang Yuan making money? You worked so hard all by yourself?"
"I, I just don't want you to worry."
"Old man, why are you angry? Don't you understand your daughter's filial piety? Besides, your daughter has such great abilities, it's something to be proud of." Liu Xiang was really happy, she never thought her daughter would be so promising.
Zhu Gang remained silent. The old woman didn't even think about how much hardship her daughter, who used to eat and drink like a fool, must have endured to become the female boss she is today. If they, as parents, had known this earlier, would they not have made the decision for their child?
Fang Yuan bullied his daughter so much, separating before even getting a divorce. Wasn't it because his daughter's family lived far away? No one was there to help? From what my daughter said, the Fang family elders intervened, but what kind of face was that? What good was it? I really wanted Fang Yuan to be so angry. As a parent, I should just break his legs with a stick.
My daughter is young and stupid, and after being played a double act by the Fang family, she really thinks they are all good people.
If he were a good person, he would not have raised a useless son like Fang Yuan.
Thinking of this, Zhu Gang continued to ask his daughter about her business. Zhu Zhu then told him about last year's net profit. The couple gasped. My goodness, could their silly daughter have such ability?
"It's also thanks to my cousins who are willing to help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to earn so much." Zhu Zhu took the opportunity to talk about the Fang family's connections.
Liu Xiang said sourly, "She's lucky to have married such a good man. Poor Zhu Zhu, how could she have met that bastard Fang Yuan?"
"Mom, you'll know once you meet my sister-in-law. She's a very good person. For my sake, she even offended Liu Qingqing. Now Liu Qingqing has opened an import and export company to compete with her. But her company is no match for my sister-in-law. It's been languishing for years and might even go bankrupt one day."
Seeing the mother and daughter's conversation drifting further and further apart, Zhu Gang said helplessly, "Enough, you're really digressing. We're talking about Zhu Zhu right now, why are you bringing up someone else? Xiang, give half of the bacon you brought with you later, and bring it over when you come to thank us. Also, since Zhu Zhu is capable of supporting herself and Qiqi, okay, let's take the child over."
"Can the Fang family agree to this?"
"Whether you agree or not depends on how we, as parents, decide for Zhu Zhu. Their family is respectable, but we are not. Also, if Fang Yuan wants a divorce, we will put forward this condition. If it really doesn't work out, my daughter, we will just have to live like this."
"Old man, what are you talking about? Live on? Become a widow? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"You know nothing. Now our daughter can earn the money from the two of them. It's good enough that Fang Yuan doesn't take our daughter's money. Zhu Zhu, this is the letter my parents received when they came to Lin City this time. Take a look at the content first."
When Zhu Zhu took a look at the letter, she saw long paragraphs of slander and ridicule against herself. Zhu Zhu couldn't imagine what was going on.
, it turned out to be Liu Qingqing.
Zhu Zhu bit her lip. She really didn’t understand. If Liu Qingqing really loved Fang Yuan so much, why did she let him go so easily in the first place?
"Zhu Zhu, Dad wants to ask you, is Liu Qingqing usually as arrogant as she is in the letter?"
"No, we keep to ourselves and do not interfere with each other."
Zhu Gang frowned and said, "She sent such a letter out of the blue. It must be ill-intentioned. Zhu Zhu, let me ask you again, how is your life now?"
"It's actually pretty good. Every day when I open my eyes, I basically don't feel like thinking about anything else."
"It seems that Liu Qingqing is anxious. She is anxious, but you can't be anxious. Dad will think about the divorce after meeting Fang Yuan tomorrow."
According to Zhu Zhu, the two sides were originally at peace, but now there is a sudden commotion, so I'm afraid there is something else going on.
At the same time, on the other side, Liu Qingqing was putting on makeup. All her makeup was just the right amount. At first glance, it looked like she was not wearing any makeup. Her skin looked fair and clear, but the wrinkles between her eyebrows and the chloasma on her cheekbones were too obvious, making people feel irritated when they saw it.
Just thinking about Fang Yuan's personality, she didn't put on heavy makeup, but chose this natural and quiet dress.
Soon Fang Yuan and Liu Qingqing met at the department store. After they had eaten half their fill, Liu Qingqing said, "Fang Yuan, let's get married."
"Get married!" Fang Yuan's knife and fork suddenly fell to the ground with a clang. In the quiet western-style restaurant, such a sound was too abrupt. Xu Shanshan and Fang Zhiwen looked in the direction of the voice, but they didn't expect to see Fang Yuan and Liu Qingqing.
Xu Shanshan hated this kind of relationship and said, "Second cousin is really hopeless. Did he really regret it in his previous life?"
"How could you not regret it? You came to our house crying in the middle of the night after drinking, and even went to Qiqi's school to cry. You looked heartbroken and desperate. Later, you went through a lot of pain and wasted a lot of time trying to divorce Liu Qingqing."
According to the developments in her previous life, Liu Qingqing should have wanted to marry Fang Yuan.
As expected, after a brief moment of surprise, Fang Yuan immediately agreed. Although he and Zhu Zhu lived separately, he and Liu Qingqing hadn't made much progress over the years and still got along like friends.
Qingqing always has too many concerns. She is either worried that the two children can't bear it or she doesn't want Zhu Zhu to feel bad. Coupled with all the gossip, Qingqing always lacks the courage.
"I know what I said today was a bit abrupt, but Fang Yuan, I really don't want to miss it again."
The eavesdropping duo was speechless, and Fang Zhiwen said directly: "Hey, second brother, are you acting in a Qiong Yao drama here?"
Liu Qingqing looked up and saw, to her surprise, that it was Fang Zhiwen and Xu Shanshan. Their exploits in the United States during the Lunar New Year had already been heard by their connections. In recent years, Fang Zhiwen's home appliance company has been a leader in everything, becoming the city's leading private enterprise. Thinking of this, Liu Qingqing couldn't help but glance at Xu Shanshan again; she hadn't expected a village girl like her to have such talent.
This time their company has reached a cooperation agreement, and it is said that she will be allowed to participate in the subsequent Sino-foreign joint venture.
Thinking about how powerful Fang Zhiwen and his wife were, Liu Qingqing pretended not to hear the joke and instead tried to make friends with them politely and friendly.
"Zhiwen, stop teasing your second brother." Fang Yuan's dream came true, and he exuded a sense of vitality.
"Okay, second brother, we're leaving first. If you're getting married for the second time, remember not to post ads for me." Fang Zhiwen pulled Xu Shanshan and left.
After Xu Shanshan left the restaurant, she said, "I saw that there was no love in Liu Qingqing's eyes. Why can't Second Brother see it?"
"Second brother is looking at Liu Qingqing in her youth, and she has never been sober."
"Alright, let him be confused on his own. Anyway, my second sister-in-law is doing well later on."
According to Zhiwen, in the previous life, when the second sister-in-law divorced, Fang Yuan took away half of the family property. Oh, that’s not right, half of the family property?
Seeing that his wife had finally figured out the key issue, Fang Zhiwen praised her, "As expected of Shanshan, you see things very clearly."
Why did my second brother change his mind in his previous life? It's really rare to find a girl as silly as my second sister-in-law.
"No way? Are you saying that Liu Qingqing is trying to steal Second Sister-in-law's money?"
"Have you forgotten about the doll business? From what I understand, Liu Qingqing's company is in urgent need of capital injection, otherwise it will go bankrupt before summer."
She did go to the bank to apply for a loan, but unfortunately the assessment failed.
"Hey, how do you know so clearly?" Xu Shanshan asked in surprise.
"Well......"
Fang Zhiwen was suddenly speechless, and then Xu Shanshan looked at him carefully with her eyes rolled.
"Tell me the truth, what's going on?"
