CHAPTER 476: 476 DIVORCE CERTIFICATE

"Yes, it’s her. I had a bit too much to drink today, and then we ended up together." Kong Demin felt especially frustrated inside.

Ignoring her, Meng Xiu Fen sat on the kang, looking at her son who was sleeping soundly beside her. Suddenly, he no longer seemed like a member of the Kong family. Could it be that he’s really Gan Jiancheng’s?

She was taken aback, feeling a bit anxious inside. "Demin, you’re getting married soon, so you should move out. It’s not appropriate to stay here. You can come back whenever you want.

After all, these three kids are all yours, and if that impulsive Sun Hongxia learns about our relationship, she’ll definitely make a scene, which won’t be good for you.

The four of us will stay at home waiting for you. This is still your home.

Rest assured, I’ll take good care of Xiao Xiang. She’ll be here guarding it for you."

Kong Demin sat on the kang, feeling quite touched. This was the best outcome. Even though he married Sun Hongxia, he wouldn’t let go of the beautiful Zheng Xiuxiang and this Meng Xiu Fen.

Meng Xiu Fen’s attitude was quite agreeable. "Don’t worry, I’ll treat the four of you well. Everything I have will still be yours in the future."

"Demin, all we hope is for you to do well."

The more Meng Xiu Fen spoke like this, the more Kong Demin felt that they were good to him.

"Hmm, I’ll be okay, and you four won’t suffer any grievances." After saying this, he started taking off his clothes, intending to sleep.

"Demin, you should still go talk to Xiao Xiang. After all, she also bore you a son. Tell her yourself, and maybe comfort her a bit."

Kong Demin lay down without getting up. "I won’t go. You can tell her tomorrow."

Kong Demin felt especially tired; the earlier moment had really scared him. His back was sore, and he really didn’t want to move.

Meng Xiu Fen didn’t say anything else. In fact, she didn’t want him to stay. After living together for so long, she genuinely despised him. But right now, she couldn’t let him know, nor could she afford to offend him.

She lay between the two, turning her back to Kong Demin.

Kong Demin hugged Meng Xiu Fen from behind, feeling happy inside. Even if she seemed calm, she was still jealous. But it was all for herself.

Thinking in his heart that he must treat them well in the future.

Meng Xiu Fen felt disgusted inside but didn’t show it, letting him hold her.

The next morning, Kong Demin got up and still felt uncomfortable all over.

Sitting down to eat dinner, he looked at Zheng Xiuxiang, "I’m going to register my marriage with a woman today."

The chopsticks in Zheng Xiuxiang’s hand dropped, and she looked at Kong Demin tearfully, with a pitiful expression.

But she didn’t say another word, lowered her head, and tears began to fall.

Kong Demin enjoyed the process. After finishing his porridge, he stood up, "Don’t go to work today, try to console her."

"Okay, I got it. You can go ahead and be busy.

By the way, you need to buy a house. The previous one can just be given to Dehong."

"Alright, I have money in my hand. I’ve had my eyes on a place for a while; I’ll buy it today."

"Okay, you go ahead. Remember, we’re all here waiting for you."

Kong Demin smiled, feeling like a successful man.

He rode his bike to work and saw Sun Baoqiang at the gate, "I need to go in and get the statement."

"Hmm. Get Hongxia’s statement too."

After half an hour, Kong Demin came out, "Where’s Sun Hongxia?"

"She’s waiting at the civil affairs bureau."

The two said nothing along the way and went directly to the civil affairs bureau.

The process here was quite fast. They got their marriage certificate in half an hour.

After coming out, Kong Demin went up to Sun Baoqiang, "Dad, I’m taking Hongxia to buy a house."

"Go ahead, make arrangements for her, and skip the wedding."

Sun Baoqiang rode off; he didn’t like Kong Demin.

"Let’s go, check out the house, see if it’s livable.

If it isn’t, you can stay at Da Jiang’s place for a while."

Sun Hongxia nodded her head. Now that she was married, she wasn’t satisfied. Why wasn’t there a wedding? She wanted everyone to know she married a capable man.

She didn’t have an issue with the house since the marriage was only decided last night.

Kong Demin didn’t bother with Sun Hongxia’s airs and said nothing further, riding off.

Sun Hongxia followed behind him. The house they looked at was just two alleys away from Jiang Xinyu’s home.

The previous occupants had moved out and gifted the house to Kong Demin; it was already in his name.

He opened the door, the two of them went inside.

Sun Hongxia took a good look around; the house wasn’t bad.

"Demin, this house is nice, but it needs some decorating, right?"

"I’ll have someone come over at noon. Where do you want to start decorating?"

"The house needs to be painted, right? Also, a kitchen should be built in the yard, so we have a place to cook in the summer."

"Sure, just come over at noon. Any requests, let them know directly. Here’s the key."

"Demin, my dad told me to move out today."

Kong Demin sighed, "Alright, you can stay at Da Jiang’s place for now. I’ll have him wait for you at your home."

"Hmm. Let me go back and pack up first. My dad said that although there’s no wedding, since I’m getting married, you should give three hundred as a bride price. The money isn’t for him, it’s all for me, along with a dowry of two hundred."

Kong Demin nodded, "I’ll give it to you tonight. I’m heading back now; the morning meeting has been canceled today."

Watching Kong Demin leave, Sun Hongxia also rode off. What dad said was right, she realized she needed to speak up herself.

Back home, she saw her parents were there and recounted what had happened earlier.

"Use your wits; find a way for him to hand over his monthly salary. He has a daughter too; ask if she plans to move in and live with us."

"Mom?"

"You naive girl, go along with him. He probably has a lot of money. You need to think of ways. You don’t have a child yet, act graciously. Be good to his daughter. Once you have a son, it’ll be fine. A man needs a son to keep him tied down."

"Listen to your mom. You need to be smart; in the future, it’s up to you to manage your life.

Also, even though there’s no wedding, have him over for dinner tomorrow night so our relatives can meet him. Avoid any future embarrassment of not recognizing him and making a fool of ourselves."

"Okay, I know. I’ll pack my things. A mason is coming at noon; I need to get the house ready."

"Hmm, go ahead. I prepared four sets of wedding dowry luggage for you, but for now, use the old ones while you’re out there. Once you move, we’ll bring them over."

"By the way, have Kong Demin transfer the house to you tomorrow; just say it’s my idea."

"Dad, does that really matter?"

"Just listen to your father," Sun’s mother said, feeling at her wit’s end with this daughter.
