Chapter 153 Termination of Adoption
Wang Jinghui was planning to scam money to go abroad, and before Xu Shanshan could even react, Wen Qianqian was already objecting, saying, "If you and Mom leave, what will I do?"
"When I pick up your mother, I'll pick you up too."
After Wang Jinghui finished speaking, he stared intently at Xu Shanshan, hoping that she would believe him this time.
Xu Shanshan didn't distrust him; rather, she was very arrogant and didn't think the Wen family could do anything to her.
Similarly, they didn't dare to do anything to Wang Jinghui.
So Xu Shanshan frowned and said, "So what if they found out? They can't do anything to us. This isn't the old society. No matter how powerful Wen Changyu is, he wouldn't dare to harm people."
"Going abroad, to a place where we don't know anyone and don't speak the foreign language, life there probably won't be convenient."
Wang Jinghui shook her head. "No, there's a Chinatown over there. It's very convenient; it's full of Chinese people."
"Can……"
Wang Jinghui grasped her hand tightly. "And once we get there, there won't be any Wen family members there, no one who knows us. It will just be the two of us and Qianqian. We can start over there."
Starting over and completely separating from the Wen family was indeed very tempting for Xu Shanshan.
"...Let me think about it."
Wang Jinghui stared at her, not daring to press too hard, and could only let go of her hand and say, "Well, don't think about it for too long, it takes time to process the documents."
"Um!"
"What did you eat for lunch?" Xu Shanshan asked, glancing at the leftovers on the table.
She asked this question because she hadn't eaten yet, and since it was already this late, she figured she would just eat at Wang Jinghui's place.
I just don't know if Wang Jinghui has any vegetables.
But Wang Jinghui said, "I've already eaten."
One sentence silenced Xu Shanshan's next words. She opened her mouth, stood up, and said, "Then you should rest for a while. Qianqian and I will go back first."
Wang Jinghui didn't try to keep her any longer, but when she reached the door, she said again, "Shanshan, you must be careful about what I told you. You know that Wen Changyu is not a good person."
"If he really finds out what happened back then, even though I did it for you, he won't make things difficult for you, but he definitely won't let me off the hook."
Xu Shanshan gave a mumbled "hmm" and walked away with her head down.
After leaving Wang Jinghui's place, Xu Shanshan lost her appetite, but Wen Qianqian was hungry. She pointed to a restaurant and said to Xu Shanshan, "Mom, let's eat here!"
Xu Shanshan went in with her. Wen Qianqian ordered two dishes and a soup, which she ate almost all of.
During dinner, Wen Qianqian asked Xu Shanshan, "Mom, do you think Dad's idea of going abroad will work?"
Wen Qianqian still found going abroad quite unusual.
But going abroad would mean getting further and further away from Wen Jinzhou, so she was unwilling.
So she said, "But I think Dad was right to let you go back to the Wen family."
"Look, my dad said before that all the family savings would be yours, but now he's suddenly gone back on his word. Guess who stirred things up?"
Xu Shanshan's eyelids twitched.
Wen Qianqian continued, "She's from the countryside, and she finally managed to climb up to the Wen family, so she's definitely going to bite them hard and try to get benefits from them!"
"But you don't like her. She knows that with you around, she won't get as many benefits, so she's constantly trying to sow discord between you and me, making everyone in the family dislike you and me. In the end, all the benefits for the family will go to her!"
"This savings, which the rest of the family hardly ever spends, must be what that bitch Xie Zhizhi wants!"
"You've never seen money before," Wen Qianqian said with a disdainful sneer.
"Mom, if you really divorce Dad, you'll be doing just what she wants."
She put down the chopsticks Xu Shanshan was holding. She rubbed her temples, looking very tired. "I have a bit of a headache!"
Wen Qianqian quickly drank two more sips of soup. "Then let's hurry back!"
Xu Shanshan didn't linger any longer.
After returning home, Xu Shanshan lay down.
After thinking it over, Wen Qianqian decided to go back to the Wen family. It seemed that it was indeed best for Wen Changyu not to divorce her mother.
She was going to find Wen Changyu and tell him that her mother was sick.
When Wen Qianqian returned to the Wen family home, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhizhi and He Yuzhi were sitting in the courtyard, brewing tea on a small stove.
Wen Qianqian saw the two people from afar and avoided them, thinking that Zhizhi and He Yuzhi, the grandmother and granddaughter, would definitely not let her see Wen Changyu.
She hesitated and waited in the shadows for a long time, preparing to wait until Zhizhi and He Yuzhi entered the house. Then she secretly approached Wang Chunlan and asked her to relay the message to her.
Then let Wen Changyu go see her mother.
She had a beautiful idea, but Zhizhi and He Yuzhi sat in the yard for a long time. Later, some acquaintances passed by, and the group chatted in the yard.
Just as Wen Qianqian was thinking about whether there was any other way, Wen Jinshu, who had returned from outside, saw her.
When Wen Jinshu saw Wen Qianqian while sitting in the car, he did not stop the car. Instead, he went back and told the guards that Wen Qianqian was not allowed to come in again.
He was also told that the Wen family had terminated their adoption relationship with Wen Qianqian.
The termination of the adoption was something Wen Jinshu had planned to persuade Wen Changyu to do, but she brought it up earlier than expected.
Wen Jinshu investigated Wang Jinghui and found out everything in one afternoon.
You wouldn't know unless you investigated; it turns out his mother had been in contact with that guy surnamed Wang for years.
Over the years, every time his mother went to withdraw a large sum of money, she would go to the Wang family's place. It's obvious who the money went to.
So, not only did their family support that man's daughter, but his mother also secretly supported him as well.
Under such circumstances, Wen Jinshu felt disgusted just looking at Wen Qianqian, let alone the fact that Wen Qianqian was also known as the Wen family's adopted daughter.
After giving his instructions, Wen Jinshu went upstairs to find Wen Changyu. He told Wen Changyu where Wang Jinghui lived and what her previous identity was. He also told her that Xu Shanshan had a large expense every year, and that it was all related to Wang Jinghui.
"Dad, I think it's necessary to publish a notice in the newspaper to announce that our family has terminated our adoption relationship with Wen Qianqian."
"Otherwise, even if you divorce Mom, she can still go around claiming to the outside world that she is a daughter of the Wen family."
When Wen Changyu heard that Xu Shanshan gave money to that man surnamed Wang every year, he was already quite disheartened. So when Wen Jinshu brought this up, he had nothing to say, only saying, "You can arrange it as you see fit."
Wen Jinshu also said, "I've spoken to the credit union. If my mother needs money recently, and it exceeds 500, I'll have them find an excuse not to process it!"
"I'll ask them to cancel the agreement once you've divided the deposit."
Wen Changyu remained silent upon hearing this.
Five hundred yuan, if we save some, is enough for a family's living expenses for a year, so Wen Changyu doesn't object.
Wen Jinshu acted swiftly, contacting several newspapers that very evening to publish a statement announcing the termination of the adoption.
The statement appeared before everyone the next day.
Those familiar with the Wen family saw it, as did those who knew Wen Qianqian.
