Chapter 401: I Don’t Want To Divorce You

Old Sheng was furious but could not do anything.

Now, he finally understood why Sheng Xiao was so rebellious—his mother was the cause of everything.

It seemed that he had to chase her out of the Sheng family as soon as possible.

Either way, the old man had to return empty-handed after his trip to Jing Ting.

That being said, he was the one being unreasonable in the first place, and his stubborn insistence that any penny which Mama Sheng spent after marrying into the Sheng family was only naturally money from the Sheng family.

And since it was money from the Sheng family, he would not let those white-eyed wolves benefit from it.

As a matter of fact, the entire Sheng family could sense that the old man’s mood had changed drastically after yesterday’s drama, and was keen on taking a bite out of any place that Sheng Xiao had been.

Second Brother therefore spoke to the old man, afraid that his health might take a turn for the worse. “Grandfather, Eighth Brother has nothing now. I’ve also spoken to our partners so that they won’t grant him any courtesy or hold back. Why would you pick a bone against him personally?”

“I’m not sparing that white-eyed wolf just like that. He must pay the price for betraying the Sheng family!”

“Grandfather…”

“You don’t need to say anything else. Just go about your own work. Come evening, the Gu family will come for dinner and to discuss your engagement with Gu Ziling.”

However, it was clear from Gu Ziling’s reaction that she was not willing to play along.

“Grandfather… Miss Gu doesn’t seem willing.” historical

“What I say goes. It’s not up to her to be willing or not.” The old man became rather overbearing just then. “I’ve already agreed with the Gu family and she would definitely marry into our family. For that, you are the best choice.”

Second Brother said nothing, but he knew that Gu Ziling simply had no feelings towards him to speak of.

“If you ever meet Sheng Xiao again, make him feel like he’s dying.”

Shen Kai nodded to calm the old man down. “Don’t worry, Grandfather. I won’t spare Eighth Brother.”

Satisfied, the old man returned to his study and called his son. “I’m giving you two clear choices now. One, get the hell out of the Sheng family and out of my sight like that traitor son of yours. Two, divorce Fang Qin.”

Papa Sheng simply did not expect that things could come to this, and therefore responded awkwardly to the old man, “What does this have to do with Xiao Qin, father? She has been my wife for years, how could you tell us to divorce just like that?”

“So are you taking the first choice?”

“Father…”

“I’m giving you three days. Give me an answer after you’ve thought about it.” Old Sheng issued his ultimatum, seemingly bent on giving Papa Sheng no choice.

Having heard their conversation beside Papa Sheng, Mama Sheng smiled. “You don’t have to feel like you’re being put on the spot. I’ll pack my things and return to Jianchuan in two days.”

Unable to help himself, Papa Sheng caught her arm. “Xiao Qin, what would you do if we really split up?”

“I’m not that miserable. I still have my son and my daughter-in-law, and I know you would never leave the business you’ve built in the Sheng family. With that being the case, let’s decide on it early on spare everyone the pain.” Mama Sheng shrugged off Papa Sheng’s arm and returned to her room.

But even though she could not do a thing with Old Sheng out for blood, she would never let Sheng Xiao know about the matter.

Moreover, although she was going to divorce her husband without Sheng Xiao knowing, Old Sheng would not afford their family any peace, and spread the news so that everyone knew about their impending divorce.

He also framed it so that the couple had irreconcilable differences because of Sheng Xiao just to make Sheng Xiao regret his actions.

However, would Sheng Xiao really react as intended?

Still, Mu Qiqi felt guilty about that. “Is Mom and Dad really going to divorce because of us?”

Nonetheless, Sheng Xiao gave Mama Sheng a call to ask about Papa Sheng’s reaction. “Mom, if Dad would rather be with you and leave the Sheng family, I would allow him to regain pride as my father. But if he chooses the Sheng family and not you… I can only say that there’s no need to keep certain people with us.”

“Give us two days, Sheng Xiao.”

“If Dad chooses you, I’ll have Xu Che send a chopper to receive you.”

“Wait for my answer.”

***

Over the years, Papa Sheng’s mindset had changed even as Old Sheng pushed him around. However, being overseas with his wife lately seemed to restore his life to the days when he was first married.

Therefore, he was reluctant to part with Mama Sheng.

However, the old man was still trying to force him into a decision, preventing him from being able to making the hard choice. Even so, he knew that he would never receive any favors from the old man even if he returned to Jianchuan.

At the same time, Mama Sheng was waiting for his final answer as well.

Be that as it may, anyone would find it difficult to give up on a life of extravagance.

Soon, three days had passed, and the call from the old man came as promised. “Have you come to a decision?”

“Father… why do you have to force me?”

“Blame yourself for the birth of your good son.” The old man said. “I’ll feel very upset as long as you don’t divorce that woman.”

“Don’t you hold any affection for her after she cared for you and the family over the years?”

“Affection? Your son showed none of that when he abandoned the Sheng family…”

“I guess that’s all I could expect of you, hesitating even though it is just a decision and after I gave you three days. Well, I’ll consider that you’ve chosen the family. Show me your divorce papers when you return.”

Papa Sheng felt very miserable—especially because he found Mama Sheng packing her luggage even as he spoke on the phone and getting on the car.

He panicked.

That was why he promptly hung up on the old man and pursued her without thinking.

He chased her all the way to the airport.

In the end, it was during the important moments that one realizes how important someone else is to you

And so Papa Sheng caught up when Mama Sheng got off her car and took her arm. “Xiao Qin.”

Mama Sheng turned to look at him, and spoke after a pause, “You don’t have to come to see me off.”

“I didn’t come to see you off. I’m not signing the divorce papers.” Papa Sheng answered solemnly. “I’ve been a good-for-nothing in the Sheng family over the years and followed my father’s words like it was a heavenly decree. I know that Sheng Xiao was the one who provoked him, but I really did not expect that he would want me to divorce my wife too!”

Mama Sheng’s eyes went red at that.

“But you would lose everything if you choose me…”

“It’s fine. I was never valued in the family anyway.” Papa Sheng said even as he embraced his wife. “I’m sorry, Xiao Qin. Sheng Xiao and you had to shoulder a lot and be hurt because I wasn’t important.

“Even so, I know you’ve left the country because your heart still has me, or you would’ve left with Sheng Xiao.”

“I don’t want to divorce you…”
