Wen Wanqing left, and Lu Yuanyang gave Su Wantang a grateful look before hurriedly chasing after her.
After tidying up the place, Su Wantang discussed some matters with Xu Dong and then went home.
After dinner, Lu Yuanyang and Wen Wanqing still hadn't returned.
The young couple made up an excuse to coax Lu Zhentian to go to sleep, and waited for him on the sofa in the living room.
It was almost 11 p.m. when there was finally some noise at the door, and Su Wantang quickly got up.
She craned her neck to look behind her: "Dad, where's Mom?"
Lu Yuanyang had a stubble on his chin and looked somewhat dejected. He covered his face with his hands and said painfully, "Your mother wants a divorce."
Su Wantang's throat was flaring with anger: "Dad, do you really like Yu Manfan?"
When it comes to his wife, Lu Yuanyang didn't care about saving face and said whatever came to mind: "How could that be? I fell in love with your mother at first sight!"
Su Wantang took out the love letter: "Then what's going on here?"
Lu Yuanyang said without even looking at it, "It's a love letter I wrote to your mother!"
Su Wantang opened the letter, pointed at the opening address "Comrade Yu Manfan," and glared at Lu Yuanyang with a sharp look.
Lu Yuanyang shrank back and said, "Back then, I was too embarrassed to ask your mother's name, so I asked Yu Manfan for your mother's name instead. I don't know how she came up with her own name."
"Don't you know?" Su Wantang was furious and really wanted to give her father-in-law a good whack.
"Now I think she did it on purpose."
Su Wantang: "..."
"Does Mom know about this?"
Lu Yuanyang shook his head: "She wouldn't even look at me back then."
As he said this, Lu Yuanyang's eyes unconsciously swept over Lu Huai'an, who was standing next to Su Wantang, and his tone was somewhat sour: "I can also say that I have risen in status because of my son."
Su Wantang opened her mouth, but after a long while, she didn't say anything.
He suddenly remembered something, snatched the letter from Su Wantang's hand, quickly flipped through it, and pointed to a spot, saying, "The name is wrong, but the content is about me and your mother. Look, that day she was wearing a light green cheongsam..."
Lu Yuanyang became more and more excited as he spoke, and then turned and left.
Su Wantang: "..."
I never expected you to be this kind of father-in-law.
Lu Huai'an walked to Su Wantang's side and said gently, "I believe Dad will handle it well. It's getting late, go to sleep."
Su Wantang nodded.
The two thought nothing more had happened, but unexpectedly, the next day, upon seeing Lu Yuanyang dressed as a savage, their eyelids twitched.
"Dad, didn't you explain clearly?" Su Wantang asked.
“I explained, but your mother scolded me—” Lu Yuanyang stammered.
Lu Huai'an: "Dad, if you don't explain yourself clearly, there's nothing we can do to help you."
Su Wantang: "I respect all of Mom's decisions."
"A big butt can't be hidden, and she doesn't care about rotten cucumbers or old cucumbers."
Su Wantang and Lu Huai'an both fell silent.
After calming Lu Yuanyang down, Su Wantang went to the guesthouse. Before she could speak, Wen Wanqing interrupted her: "Wantang, Mom likes you, but Mom is an adult and knows what she's doing. You don't need to persuade me. Even if you do, I won't change."
"Mom, I'm not here to persuade you. I respect all your decisions. I just want to ask you a few questions."
Do you think Yu Manfan is a trustworthy person?
"Is Dad the kind of person Yu Manfan described?"
Wen Wanqing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Wantang, that location, a birthmark..."
“Mom,” Su Wantang said, offering a guess, “it’s not impossible that the accident happened at Yu Manfan’s house by chance.”
Wen Wanqing was taken aback.
Seeing that she had taken it to heart, Su Wantang added, "With a little research, you might be able to find out about birthmarks."
"Besides, if Yu Manfan and Dad ever get involved, do you think she can stay quiet and not cause trouble to climb the social ladder?"
Wen Wanqing was also blinded by her own involvement. Su Wantang's words were like a broken wall, and she felt a thunderous roar in her ears.
“Yes, Wan Tang, you’re right. Your dad, as soon as he gets off work, he rushes home…” Wen Wanqing paused, “He has no time to find a second spring.”
The storm has passed.
A few days later, Fu Jing suddenly showed up at the door.
"You mean, Yu Manfan had a young female comrade by her side back then?" Su Wantang asked in surprise.
Fu Jing recalled the blind date scene from yesterday: "Yes, her name is Gu Nanzhi."
Gu Nanzhi used to be a doctor at a military hospital.
Lu Yuanyang must have been injured over the years, so given her status, she would have had the opportunity to know this.
Su Wantang thanked Fu Jing, and then, as the whole family sat down together, she asked Lu Yuanyang a question.
Lu Yuanyang went to great lengths to clear his name, saying, "Wantang, Dad had an injection in his buttocks at the military hospital."
The truth is about to be revealed.
To be absolutely certain, the whole family sent Lu Zhentian away the next day and staged a scene, pretending to get a divorce.
The commotion reached the neighboring courtyard, and Gu Nanzhi even came out to see what was happening.
Enraged, Su Wantang rushed up to Gu Nanzhi and demanded, "Did you do this?"
Gu Nanzhi looked completely innocent: "Sister-in-law, you're innocent. I just heard the noise and came out to check. Aunt Wen and Uncle Lu's divorce has absolutely nothing to do with me."
Su Wantang bluntly stated, "What accusation? Fu Jing saw you and Yu Manfan together that day. Besides, if it weren't for you, how would Yu Manfan know about Dad..."
Her voice trailed off, and Su Wantang's face flushed, as if the content of her words was too difficult to utter.
Gu Nanzhi naturally knew what she wanted to say, and it was indeed she who revealed it.
But at this moment, she had no time to care about any of that.
One thought kept running through my mind: Su Wantang and Fu Jing's relationship is definitely not simple.
Gu Nanzhi suppressed her secret joy and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't."
"If it wasn't you, then who else could it be?" Su Wantang persisted, refusing to believe it.
Gu Nanzhi glanced at Lu Huai'an as if by accident, her misty eyes filled with grievance, yet she swallowed her bitterness for the sake of so-called dignity.
“Sister-in-law, if this makes you feel better or happier, then just consider it me. I’ll go apologize to Uncle Lu and Aunt Wen.”
Su Wantang growled, "Then go!"
"Su Wantang, that's enough." Lu Huai'an said with disappointment, "Have you made enough of a scene? If it weren't for you, how could Mom have... how could things have escalated to this point?"
After Lu Huai'an finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the courtyard.
Seeing this, Su Wantang was extremely panicked and chased after him.
"Huai'an, listen to me, that's not how it is."
The two figures entered the courtyard. The high courtyard wall blocked their view, but their voices could be heard.
"What else would it be like?"
"Stop talking."
"Su Wantang, you're so annoying!"
......
Gu Nanzhi curled her lips. She really didn't expect that what she had done to Wen Wanqing was to use her inability to tolerate any flaws in her judgment to force Wen Wanqing and Lu Yuanyang to divorce, thus thwarting her plan to get Su Wantang pregnant, but instead brought her unexpected joy.
Now, their relationship has become strained, and she has also learned that Su Wantang and Fu Jing are having an affair.
If we plan it carefully...
It seems that Su Wantang and Lu Huai'an's divorce is not far off.
Huai'an, only I am worthy to stand by your side.
Two days later, Gu Nanzhi called.
"Su Wantang, I lied that day. Do you want to know the truth? Then come find me."
