CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 84: WANT TO REMARRY

Gu Junming whispered to Sun Chan, "This Liu Qiang is a rogue. When he got divorced, it was very messy. We have to sort this out before I introduce you to them. Sorry about this."

"It’s okay, you go ahead, don’t let your parents suffer a loss." Sun Chan gave Gu Junming a gentle push.

The old lady angrily said, "What are you doing here? You were the one who said you didn’t want our Shufen, and when you got divorced, the child was having a fever. You wouldn’t care if you lived or died, not a dime was given, and now you’re back here talking like this? Do you really think our family is an easy target? That you can do anything you want?"

"Mom, you can’t say that!" The man, despite getting a face full of spit, was still grinning. His skin was really thick!

"Ugh, you shameless thing! And you dare to call me mom?" Wang Shufen gritted her teeth and said, "Leave now! Or I won’t be polite!"

"Shufen, don’t be like this. Back then, when I insisted on a divorce, it was just out of spite. Who would’ve thought you would agree? I had to go through with it for the sake of face. I was just trying to scare you so you wouldn’t divorce me. Who knew you actually would? How could I bear to leave you?"

The old lady spat right in the man’s face, "Ding Quan, we watched you grow up. Since when did you become so shameless? Divorce is not a joke! You nearly got your child killed, and you still have the nerve to talk! If you don’t get lost, I’ll beat you today!" She said this while rushing forward, grabbing his collar to hit him.

The man didn’t dare push her away, and could only smile apologetically, calling Wang Shufen to help stop the fight, "I’m Kangkang’s dad, are you going to stand by and watch mom hit me?"

Wang Shufen said nothing, searching for a shovel, her eyes red, looking ready to hit someone.

Sun Chan and Gu Junming quickly held back Wang Shufen. In her heart, Sun Chan felt deeply moved. Wang Shufen, who was so honest, knew to awaken and divorce, while in her past life, she just endured the suffering. Perhaps others lived more happily.

Seeing such a situation, Ding Qiuyue knew that today wasn’t the day to discuss matters with Gu Junming and didn’t want to stick around to cause discomfort. She quickly took her daughter and left without saying a word; she just nodded to Mrs. Wang.

As they left, the man shot a glance at Su Miao, his eyes lighting up. This girl had grown more attractive these past few years. Su Miao felt an odd gaze, glanced at the man, and lowered her head in disgust.

But the man thought she was being shy and focused on today’s main issue without flirting.

He steadied himself and turned to his ex-wife, "Shufen, let’s go back. You’ve been upset for years, it’s time we reconciled. My parents said as long as you come back, we’ll forget the past."

Wang Shufen was trembling with anger, "Shut up! Who’s upset with you? Back then, how many improper women did you fool around with? You gambled and drank, engaged in all sorts of vices, sold everything in the house, even mortgaged the house, and now you have the nerve to ask me back? You’re not human! Dream on if you think I’ll come back!"

Even after so many years, the humiliation she and her son suffered at her in-laws’ was still vivid. Wang Shufen’s voice broke with tears.

"Your parents said I and the child were bad luck, always trying to drive us out, not even giving us a bowl of rice. I endured silently, hoping you’d speak for us with your parents, but what did you do? Just cursed at me, saying I was disloyal and should divorce. Later, I found out you wanted to marry that young widow, kicking me and our sick son out! Now that the widow doesn’t want you, you’re back for me? You heartless bastard! Get out!"

She reached out to push Ding Quan, who stumbled back, face embarrassed, not knowing what to say.

"Calm down, it’s all in the past..."

"Ugh! Past, you say? The things your Ding family did, we’ll never forget!" Mrs. Wang also furiously said, "Your family wants to move on, but what about us? Do you think we’re so easy to bully?"

Ding Quan tried to placate her with a smile, "Mom, don’t be mad, I’m here to apologize. Please don’t be angry."

"Who’s your mom! Get out now!"

"Mom, I know you’re kind-hearted. Can you tell my brother-in-law for me, that I sincerely regret..."

"If you have something to say, say it directly. No need to go through others." Gu Junming walked over.

Ding Quan got startled. He hadn’t expected his brother-in-law to be visiting his in-laws today!

Gu Junming’s eyes flashed with a cold light, making Ding Quan shiver, and he forgot what he was about to say.

He came today hoping to take Shufen back and remarry her. He thought the young widow was great—young, pretty, charming, and sweet-talking, unlike Wang Shufen, whom he saw as dull and unappealing. So he didn’t hesitate to kick her out.

Recently, when buying clothes for the widow in town, he heard that Huang Shufen’s brother’s biological father was a high-ranking officer and supposedly wealthy, which made him regret his decision. How could such good family connections go unused?

The widow was fine, but connecting with a high-ranking officer was a better deal. He told his parents, and the family was thrilled. They discussed and decided to come for Wang Shufen.

Wang Shufen might not be much, but her brother was influential! If they could reconnect, imagine the benefits! Later, they could move to the city, get into politics, and there’d be plenty of young women around. The widow would be nothing in comparison.

So he came thick-skinned, not expecting Wang Shufen to refuse reconciliation and wanting him gone as soon as they met.

"You can’t be heartless. A night together is a bond for life..."

"Get out." Gu Junming’s tone was calm, but his eyes were chilling.

The whole courtyard fell silent, and Ding Quan opened his mouth but didn’t dare speak a word. He instinctively wanted to run but knew it was futile; if he left now, there’d be no hope.

Ding Quan gathered his courage and looked at Wang Shufen, "Mother of my child? You can’t just leave me like this. I truly regret it. You’re the only divorcee here, and everyone in the village talks behind your back. If I reconcile with you, you can hold your head high again."

After he said this, the Wang Family’s faces grew even darker. He was the one who insisted on divorce. Why didn’t he care about his wife’s reputation then? Now he plays the good guy?
