After Jiang Yucheng's statement, Old Man Jiang knew that his eldest son must know the inside story.
It's just that this inside story is not suitable to be said openly.
Jiang Yutong and Jiang Yuxin were originally thinking about trying to persuade him further, but when they heard Jiang Yucheng's statement, they immediately swallowed their words back into their stomachs.
The Jiang family is now headed by the eldest brother, so he must have his reasons for saying that.
Listen to your elder brother.
Yao Lin was almost in despair when she heard Jiang Yucheng's words. If she had been sad because of this man's ruthlessness and cold-heartedness before, now she didn't dare to think about it at all.
She doesn't want a divorce, even if it means moving out.
Thinking of this, she stood up suddenly, not caring about her leg injury, and was about to kneel down towards Jiang Yucheng.
"Brother, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please give me and Yumin another chance, I can't divorce Yumin, wuwuwu, Yingying is still so young, she can't live without her mother..."
Yao Lin's reaction was so sudden that everyone present was shocked, and a trace of disgust flashed in Jiang Yucheng's eyes.
Jiang Yuxin was even quicker, and before she could kneel down, he rushed over and grabbed her, his tone full of threats.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you doing? The child is watching."
If a sister-in-law kneels down in front of her eldest brother in public, will the Jiang family's reputation be ruined if this gets out?
Yao Lin didn't care about her dignity, but the Jiang family couldn't afford to lose this person.
And listen to what she said behind her words? It's as if the eldest brother is forcing them to divorce.
Jiang Yumin was obviously also angered by Yao Lin's behavior just now. He stood up and said angrily,
"I want a divorce from you! What does it have to do with my elder brother?! Yao Lin, I can tell you clearly that even if my father and elder brother are against it today, I will definitely divorce you! Don't forget what we agreed before, we should part ways in peace!"
Jiang Yumin almost uttered the last four words with gritted teeth.
Before today, Jiang Yumin had already discussed this with Yao Lin.
If they divorce peacefully, she can get half of his property, which will be enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life.
But if she refuses to cooperate and insists on making trouble, the Jiang family will always find a way to make her leave the house.
Not only will she get nothing, but the fact that she has been coveting her uncle for many years will also be exposed. She will then lose all her face. Not only her, but also her children, Jiang Han and Yingying will be laughed at.
Yao Lin's heart skipped a beat when he reminded her of this, and all the hope she had just felt vanished again.
Even though she has been thinking about Jiang Yucheng all these years, and even feels deep down in her heart that there is nothing wrong with loving someone.
But if the children really knew about this...she wouldn't be able to face several children.
Seeing Yao Lin's emotions change from excitement to calm in an instant, with an obvious look of resignation, no matter how stupid Jiang Han was, he knew that the problem must be with his mother.
He didn't blame his father for being cruel.
Because he knew how indulgent his father was to his mother.
The reason why Dad suddenly decided to file for divorce must be because Mom did something unforgivable.
Thinking of this, he closed his eyes tightly.
But he still clenched his fists tightly and did not walk away.
Lu Xuexi had been paying attention to Jiang Han's situation. After thinking for a while, she quietly reached out her hand at an angle where no one was noticing and placed her palm lightly on his clenched fist.
Jiang Han seemed startled and subconsciously retracted his hand. He turned his head and met Lu Xuexi's eyes full of worry and concern.
Jiang Han had mixed emotions, but he really couldn't spare too much attention at the moment. He barely pulled his cheek muscles, then retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Lu Xuexi didn't care either.
She listened to the system's announcement of the favorability value +1, and a barely perceptible smile flashed across her eyes, but her face still showed a worried and solemn expression.
Little did she know that her little action just now had already been noticed by someone.
On the other side, when Mr. Jiang saw that Yao Lin had tacitly agreed to the divorce, he stopped talking and suppressed all his emotions. He just said in a deep voice,
"Since you have made the decision, it's up to you. But I don't want to see too much publicity about this matter to the outside world."
The last sentence is obviously directed at Jiang Yumin.
After all, Jiang Yumin and Yao Lin are both in the entertainment industry.
Reporters in the entertainment industry love to hear news about divorce the most. Even though the two had not been married before, there were many rumors about the relationship between Jiang Yumin and Yao Lin.
Once people know that they are getting divorced, there will definitely be people who will dig deep into the reasons and publicize it.
Jiang Yumin obviously understood this as well.
"We will not make an official announcement about the divorce for now, especially since Yingying is still young and I am afraid she won't be able to accept it. I have discussed this with Yao Lin and will let her go abroad temporarily for further studies and then announce it to the public in a few years."
This was actually a suggestion made by Jiang Yucheng.
The main reason was that he didn't want to see Yao Lin hanging around him again.
Everyone else in the Jiang family agreed with Jiang Yumin's way of handling the matter. Old Man Jiang agreed, and Old Lady Jiang had nothing to say.
Several elders quickly decided on the second wife’s divorce.
As for Jiang Huai and other younger generations, they were just there to participate.
The one who suffered the most was of course Jiang Han.
After finishing talking about his parents' divorce, he couldn't wait to get up and go back to his room.
Seeing this, Lu Xuexi was about to stand up, but she heard Jiang Huai suddenly speak with a gentle and pleasant voice.
"While everyone is here today, I also have something I want to formally propose and seek everyone's opinions."
Jiang Huai's words successfully stopped Jiang Han and Lu Xuexi from leaving.
The other members of the Jiang family also looked at Jiang Huai with curiosity.
If Jiang Yucheng's eldest son is the mainstay of the family after Grandpa Jiang, then Jiang Huai, the eldest son and grandson, has an equally unquestionable status in the entire Jiang family.
It must be a serious matter since he brought it up so formally for discussion.
For example, the last time he brought up the matter so formally was a few months ago when he accidentally discovered that Jiang Xuxu was the Jiang family's long-lost child.
Everyone, including Mr. Jiang, was waiting for him to speak with great interest.
Old Mrs. Jiang looked at her grandson's elegant smile and felt that it didn't seem like a bad thing.
If it's not a bad thing, then it's a good thing.
When I think about my grandson’s age, I feel a little excited.
Could it be that there is someone outside?
Jiang Xuxu was also curious. As far as she knew, the most important event in the family recently was the matter between Jiang Yumin and Yao Lin.
Jiang Huai faced everyone's inquiring gazes, a smile on his lips, his expression calm, but his pair of peach blossom eyes looked at Lu Xuexi slowly.
When Lu Xuexi met Jiang Huai's gaze, her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she had a vague bad feeling.
Sure enough, the next second, Jiang Huai's voice was clear and he said casually,
"Lu Xuexi has been fostered in the Jiang family for a few years. Her family has raised her as a child of the Jiang family, but she is not a child of the Jiang family after all."
As he spoke, his peach blossom eyes glanced at Lu Xuexi calmly, his voice neither slow nor fast.
"She is already eighteen years old and has been admitted to a good university. I don't think it's appropriate for her to continue living in the Jiang family."
