"Go back, we'll call your parents."

Hua Xiaoyu walked out in despair.

That night, when the Hua family learned that Miao Man had filed for divorce, Hua's father said nothing and slapped his son twice.

Hua Xiaoyu didn't say anything, and his mother sat beside him, crying.

She felt sorry for her son and blamed him even more. She didn't understand why her son, who was usually obedient and sensible, had done something wrong now.

As for Gu Baoshan, after returning to his rented house, his home was very messy with many bags and luggage. After he was promoted, the bureau allocated him a two-bedroom, one-living-room house, and he would move in after the fifth day of the New Year.

So things are usually put away, and the house is a bit messy.

The couple took a taxi back with their child. Their son had fallen asleep in Gu Baoshan's arms. After entering the house, Gu Baoshan first carried his son into the bedroom. After coming out, he closed the bedroom door before sitting down.

Gao Jing was also sitting in the living room. She pursed her lips and said, "Just ask anything you want to ask."

"What are you asking? Are you and Hua Xiaoyu really hugging each other? Will you tell the truth if I ask you?"

"Gu Baoshan, don't you believe me?"

Gu Baoshan leaned his head back and leaned into the back of the sofa. "Believe me. Even Hua Xiaoyu is on your side and is clarifying things for you. How could I not believe you?"

Gao Jing sneered, "You don't have to mock me. I didn't do it. I came from the countryside. Miao Man and the others have always protected Ji Ling. I embarrassed me today. I don't blame you for not standing up. Any man would not be able to accept those things. I understand you."

Although he said he didn't blame her, his words were full of complaints.

Gu Baoshan didn't respond.

Gao Jing felt like she had punched cotton and she couldn't use any strength.

The house was very quiet, so quiet that one could hear each other's breathing.

Gao Jing had planned this out long ago before she dared to disgust Miao Man today, or rather, she had been planning this day since she knew that Hua Xiaoyu and Miao Man were dating.

During her four years at school, she had been bullied and ignored, and she had always wanted to find an opportunity to fight back.

And God was on her side. Hua Xiaoyu liked her, so she was able to take revenge so happily.

Miao Man will feel sick whenever she thinks about it for the rest of her life.

As for what happened afterwards, Gao Jing was not worried. She knew that Hua Xiaoyu would definitely protect her, so she was fearless.

With a sneer.

Gao Jing looked over and saw Gu Baoshan smiling. Her gaze fell on his scarred face and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.

After being married for almost three years, the two of them were rarely together, and Gu Baoshan was not keen on their married life, which made Gao Jing feel relieved.

The only two times they had sex were when Gu Baoshan was drunk. Otherwise, Gu Baoshan never had sex with her.

Gao Jing was very happy about this. She went to find Gu Baoshan because she wanted to give birth to the baby in her belly openly.

"I sent a letter to my mother, asking them to come and live here after the Chinese New Year. After they move to their new home, please take care of them. They have lived in the countryside all their lives, and they will be nowhere to be found in the city."

"How can I have the time?" Gao Jing frowned when she heard this. "Besides, if they come to live here, there will be no room for them. Kaiyu has one bedroom and we have one bedroom. There is no extra room."

"I'm not at home most of the time. Kaiyu and you will live, and the other room will be for my parents. As their son, I have moved to the city now, and it's my responsibility to support them." Gu Baoshan looked at Gao Jing indifferently.

Gao Jing felt a tightness in her chest, "No."

"It's not up to you."

"Gu Baoshan, what do you mean?"

Gao Jing was stumped by the question.

Gu Baoshan reminded her again, "Gao Jing, you work in the Education Bureau, remember your identity."

"Gu Baoshan, don't go too far. I can't stop you from asking your parents to come, but I definitely won't care about them. You can do whatever you want. Don't say I didn't say it in advance."

Gu Baoshan's eyes were cold and Gao Jing felt uncomfortable when he looked at her. She said, "Gu Baoshan, do you have any opinions about me? If you have any, you can bring them up. Why do you have to do something like this to disgust me?"

"Disgusting you?" Gu Baoshan stood up and walked slowly to Gao Jing. Gao Jing didn't know what he was going to do, and then she found that he was pulling her shoulder with one hand, and a strong force came and lifted her up directly from the sofa.

Pop.

He was slapped hard on the face and his body was thrown out.

After falling to the ground, Gao Jing's head was buzzing, and then she understood what had happened.

Gu Baoshan beat her.

"How dare you hit me."

"Don't let me hear you say that my filial piety is disgusting again. Your parents are parasites, like vampires. Every month when the money is late, they call my workplace. Didn't I tell you about this?"

Gao Jing covered half of her face and looked at Gu Baoshan with fear in her eyes.

Gu Baoshan actually took action. Thinking back to the disgust and coldness in his eyes just now, Gao Jing couldn't help but shudder. She didn't dare to say anything back.

Seeing that she had behaved herself, Gu Baoshan went to the bathroom to wash his hands, then left the house and did not return that night.

Back at the Zhu family compound, after Ji Ling returned home, she told Zhu Weidong about the situation. Everyone in the Zhu family was there at the time, and when they heard that Miao Man had encountered such a thing, they felt sorry for her.

Then he looked at Zhu Yaowu and said, "Why don't you ask Miao Man and see what Yaowu thinks."

Zhu Yaowu was drinking tea, and the tea in his mouth sprayed out, "Grandma, please don't blame me."

Everyone laughed.

On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, Ji Ling officially went to work in the office. In the morning, she received a call from Miao Man, saying that she had completed the divorce.

Then he asked Ji Ling to have lunch together at noon. Ji Ling readily agreed. When they arrived at the lunch place at noon, Li Jia and Tang Meng were both there.

The four of them gathered together, and Miao Man brought back another piece of heavy news, "I quit."

"Resign?"

"Well, I plan to do something myself. Ji Ling, I have to ask you for help. You see, Brother Ji's business is so successful. It was all your idea. I am counting on you now."

"Sure." This didn't bother Ji Ling. She asked Li Jia and Tang Meng, "Do you two want to invest?"

"Okay."

"Then the four of us will form a partnership," Ji Ling said with a smile, "How about opening a transportation company?"

Thinking about the express delivery in her previous life, Ji Ling expressed her thoughts.

Transportation is not very developed nowadays and it takes a long time to send something by mail. When the three heard Ji Ling's idea, their eyes lit up.

Moreover, this business cannot be done by one person alone. It requires a large amount of capital and manpower.

"I'll go back and write a plan. I'm afraid the money may not be enough with just the four of us. We need to bring in more people, people who can pay." Ji Ling instructed the three people.

When the three heard about such a big business, they became interested. They listened carefully to what Ji Ling said and thought about what kind of people around them would meet the requirements.
