Chapter 1907: How to Coax

But it was the Wei family, who already had such a poor family background to begin with, who had been the cheating party. The gall of them! To that, the lawyer had nothing left to say.

“Lawyer, why didn’t you say anything just now? How can we win the case like that? My son spent a lot of money hiring you. You can’t just take our money and do nothing.” After the first session concluded, Mother Wei clung on to the lawyer’s suit frantically and spat at the lawyer, who was utterly disgusted.

The lawyer took a deep breath. “Before the court session started, I already presented an analysis of this case to you. Unless the other party is willing to settle, there is no way you will win this case no matter who you hire Of course, if you feel that I haven’t done my duty, I don’t mind you changing lawyers. I’m willing to refund you the fees you paid earlier.”

He would just take it as though he had worked for nothing in the past few days.

After understanding the facts of this case, the lawyer had spent less effort on this case. It was clearly a lost cause. He was not a judge, but even if he was, there was no way he would not agree to a divorce.

“Lawyer, don’t. My mom is just too anxious and was a little harsh with her words. She means well. But can you try a little harder in this lawsuit?” Wei De himself could not do much. He had looked for many lawyers for his lawsuit, but every single one of them had replied to him in the same manner.

There were even a few lawyers who simply refused to take on the case after realizing who Zhai Hua was. They could not afford to accept this money. Who would be foolish as to say no to money? Wei De was confused about these lawyers’ attitudes.

It was only because Wei De was polite that the lawyer’s expression brightened. “Company Commander Wei, I gave you my suggestion earlier on. If you really want to fight this lawsuit, you can’t match up to them in any way. I believe that your relationship with your wife should have been pretty good to have married her at that time. Since you could do it at that time, as long as you work as hard now as you did then, I believe that you’ll be able to reach a settlement eventually. As long as your wife agrees not to get a divorce, everything will be resolved. The key to this lawsuit lies in your wife’s hands.”

The lawyer was just short of saying that Wei De should just use the same underhanded methods and same efforts as he had done as a peasant boy to win Zhai Hua over. She was just a woman. Words would appease her.

If she insisted on this lawsuit, Wei De would definitely lose badly.

After leaving Wei De with a heartfelt suggestion, the lawyer took his leave. He had more on hand than this case he was sure he would never win.

“Ah De, why don’t you take the lawyer’s advice and think of how to win Zhai Hua over?” Mother Wei asked cautiously. She felt that the lawyer did make sense. When Zhai Hua had married her son, her son had not even been a company commander. He had been a mere soldier.

Her son had managed to woo such an important young lady like Zhai Hua even with his poor background. There was no reason that Ah De would not be able to appease Zhai Hua and win her back now that they had been husband and wife for over ten years, had been promoted to a company commander, and even had a daughter like Jiajia.

Wei De laughed bitterly. “Do you think I don’t want that to happen? Do you think that I’m not familiar with Zhai Hua’s temper after so many years? I was the one who didn’t pay close enough attention to Wei Xiaomei’s matter. I thought that it would never see the light of day since it had been buried for so many years. Zhai Hua’s temper also changed drastically after marriage that I got too cocky. Without Wei Xiaomei and Wei Wei, Zhai Hua would definitely help me beg the Zhai family for help if I caused any trouble. But now…”

No matter what he did or said, there was no way Zhai Hua would ever forgive him or agree to continue staying married to him.

Women were such strange creatures. No matter how big of a mess he created, Zhai Hua would never give up on him even if the world came crashing down. On the contrary, because he had slept with another woman and had had a child with said woman, Zhai Hua felt that it was worse than the world collapsing and was even more unforgivable. She was even denying their ten years’ worth of relationship.

“Don’t talk about coaxing her. Unless it’s a court session, I won’t even be able to meet with Zhai Hua. How will I ever coax her? Zhai Hua is serious this time. I don’t have any other choice. Haven’t you realized that our family hasn’t even seen Jiajia? Zhai Hua and the Zhai family are preparing to push me into a corner.”

This was the first time Wei De realized just how much he missed his daughter, Jiajia, and wanted to see her.

This divorce lawsuit was not as easy as he thought it would be unless they both came to a settlement.

Although the divorce lawsuit would take a while to end, Zhai Hua was not worried about it at all. Conversely, her mood was getting better as she became more open-minded. It was just a divorce. It was no big deal. She still had her family and a wonderful daughter, Jiajia. Without that bast*rd, Wei De, Jiajia’s and her life would only get better.

As Zhai Hua finally put all that down, Qiao Nan’s situation deteriorated slightly. On the second day, Qiao Nan had wanted to leave Ping Cheng and return to Qingshui Town to continue her life. Although no one else knew, she had been living in the same courtyard as the Qiao family again. Under normal circumstances, there was no way the Qiao family would find out that she had returned.

The problem was that the Qiao family might not have learned of it, but there were many other neighbors who recognized her. As soon as someone recognized her and told the Qiao family about her arrival, she would have to deal with the Qiao family’s clinging on to her in front of the Zhai family. That would be horrible.

No matter what, Qiao Nan did not want to disgrace herself in front of the Zhai family. So, it was best for Qiao Nan to take the opportunity to leave Ping Cheng and return to Qingshui Town before things progressed to that stage.

But every time Qiao Nan brought up the matter of leaving, Zhai Sheng would find an excuse to refuse, causing Qiao Nan to delay her leaving day by day. It seemed as though she would not return to Qingshui Town before Zhai Hua’s divorce lawsuit was settled.

And the facts proved that Qiao Nan’s worries were not groundless but were, in fact, very necessary. What Qiao Nan did not know was that on the third day she returned to Ping Cheng, a certain person from the Qiao family had already learned of it. What Qiao Nan did not know either was that from that day on, that person would make a round around the Zhai family’s courtyard from time to time so as to peek on her and see how she was doing and whether she was leading a better life than before.
