Chapter 2201: Getting a Divorce

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Once the tides were turned, Wang Yang’s wife knew that not only was she going to be facing scolding and accusations, but the Wang family might even force her to divorce Wang Yang.

Back when Wang Yang’s wife was still a young lady, she experienced a surge in status after marrying Wang Yang, becoming the girl who married best among the relatives. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. The Wang family hadn’t capsized. At the very most, it just hadn’t gotten everything the Zhu family had yet. To her, the Wang family was still an in-law family with good conditions. If she missed out on Wang Yang, she would never be able to find another man with similar conditions as him.

She couldn’t bear to part with her status as the daughter-in-law of the Wang family. She knew that her family couldn’t bear it either. Without the Wang family, her younger brother might only be able to work for a few days at the job he found with much difficulty. Relying on the fact that Wang Yang was his brother-in-law, he didn’t need to do much work in the unit. However, the salary he obtained was definitely not little. He was even contracted as a permanent employee instead of a contract worker.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll take care of this matter. I’ll give my dad a call. If you receive a call from home and my dad nags at you, just let him be. Don’t take his words to heart. This damned old man should have been guarding against me since a long time ago. It has nothing to do with you. However, this is a big matter and my parents don’t feel comfortable in their hearts. You must understand if they speak nastily. Understand?”

Compared to biological parents, a wife was naturally not as close. Wang Yang asked his wife to be the temporary source for the Wang family to vent their anger and frustration. No matter how the Wang family scolded her or how unpleasant their words were, she had to coax them as the daughter-in-law of the Wang family and couldn’t throw a temper at her own in-laws.

Wang Yang’s wife was from a small household and her family conditions were only better than Qiao Nan’s by a little. What was Wang Yang after for marrying a wife with such a lowly background? Firstly, her looks. Secondly, this difference where his wife had to remain humble in front of the Wang family, like a puppy. She shouldn’t be like others and arrogantly lift her tail into the sky like a peacock, disrespecting even her in-laws.

Wang Yang’s wife’s face changed slightly. Although her parents doted on a son more, they weren’t bad to her, the daughter. She was a princess at home. After understanding the meaning in Wang Yang’s words, no matter how unhappy she was, she didn’t dare to kick up a fuss or not listen to Wang Yang’s words. There was inherent inequality between her and Wang Yang to begin with. She had to listen to Wang Yang’s words. She had to bear with the Wang family venting their anger and frustration at her.

If she really felt unhappy and fell out with Wang Yang, her family would be the first to say that she’s stupid and tell her that if she missed out on Wang Yang, how else would she be able to find another in-law family that was as good as the Wang family? One had to count their blessings.

She was already used to her family’s rhetoric. Of course, she also had similar thoughts. No matter how angry she was, she just had to accept it.

Indeed, when Wang Yang shared the situation with his parents, his father immediately started scolding him. “I’ve long said this. What use is there that she has looks? Rather than marrying this woman, you might as well marry Qiao Nan so that she can help our family more.”

It was of course the best if Zhu Chengqi left his money to his son, Wang Yang. It was alright if there was a will as well. Qiao Nan was their daughter-in-law. Leaving things for Qiao Nan was the same as leaving things for the Wang family. They were already a family. Could it be that the in-laws couldn’t spend the daughter-in-law’s money?

Wang Yang held his forehead. “Dad, this happened so long ago. Can we not mention it?” Marrying Qiao Nan?

To be honest, it wasn’t that Wang Yang didn’t consider this before. He thought of the possibility of doing so. However, after some serious thinking, Wang Yang gave up on this plan very quickly. There was no choice. Wang Yang liked his wife to be younger than him. However, Qiao Nan was older. Also, after Zhu Baoguo passed away, Zhu Chengqi liked Qiao Nan more than him, the biological nephew. This made Wang Yang envious of Qiao Nan.

Which man who thought that he was capable in this world would marry a woman whom he didn’t like and was envious of? Wasn’t that being at odds with himself?

As such, Wang Yang married a woman who was similar in looks to Qiao Nan but was younger than him.

In the end, it was proven that this idea was extremely lousy and useless. They had been married for several years. Zhu Chengqi never looked at this niece-in-law differently or showed her kindness just because she looked similar to Qiao Nan.

After Zhu Chengqi redid his will and left everything from the Zhu family to Qiao Nan, a powerful atomic bomb-like blow was set off.

“Yes, that’s all in the past. You didn’t listen to me and insisted on marrying a woman who had nothing. Yes, everything from the Zhu family would be left to someone with a different surname, but that surname is Qiao and not Wang!” Wang Yang’s father felt that he was going to explode. He was such a smart man who managed to coax Zhu Chengqi’s only biological sister. Why was it that the son he gave birth to was totally different from him?

He knew that Zhu Chengqi, his brother-in-law, never liked him before. So what? Even if he didn’t like him, hadn’t he similarly married a daughter from the Zhu family, spent the Zhu family’s money, and used the glory of the Zhu family to improve his own position? So what if a lot of people rolled their eyes at him? It was the most practical to grasp benefits.

Back when Wang Yang wanted to marry a wife, his father gave him two suggestions. Number one, rather than marrying this woman, it would be better to make Qiao Nan a member of the Wang family so that the effects would be more pronounced. Number two, Wang Yang could marry a woman who was compatible with the Wang family’s background and would be helpful in Wang Yang’s career.

Wang Yang’s father proposed these suggestions as he was afraid that a situation like this would appear one day. Who knew that his worst fears came true? As such, Wang Yang’s father couldn’t control his temper and wanted to throw tantrums at Wang Yang’s wife. Over the years, Wang Yang’s wife was considered to have worked hard as she gave birth to a son for Wang Yang and sent this son over to Ping Cheng for her in-laws to take care of him. Otherwise, Wang Yang’s father wouldn’t want to acknowledge her as a daughter-in-law and would have gotten Wang Yang to divorce her.

As a father-in-law, Wang Yang’s father was already dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law previously. Initially, the husband-and-wife pair said that they had kept a close watch on Zhu Chengqi and there wouldn’t be any accidents. However, this accident still happened. Wang Yang’s father lost all patience with this daughter-in-law who couldn’t be of help in any way.. Upon mentioning this useless daughter-in-law, the disgust in his tone was pretty hurtful.
