Only now did Wang Yizhi attempt to console Su Lan.
“Lanlan, I am deeply sorry. It’s all my fault. We won’t go through with the divorce. Once I achieve a high ranking position, you will be recognized as the official’s wife…”
Su Bin shot a fierce look at Wang Yizhi.
“Stop manipulating my sister!”
“If you don’t want us to report this to the authorities, write the divorce papers!”
Su Bin had pondered the situation. Wang Yizhi had the backing of his influential family, and winning in court would be extremely challenging. So, he decided to have his sister initiate the divorce, just in case Wang Yizhi schemed against them once again.
As for revenge, he knew it wasn’t too late.
He never imagined it would take another ten years before he could seek retribution.
Upon hearing Su Bin’s words, the village chief reconsidered. He turned to Su
Lan. “Are you absolutely certain about the divorce? Your husband is a Cultivated Talent! ”
Su Lan nodded firmly. “I will definitely divorce him!”
She couldn’t bear to see Wang Yizhi any longer.
She regretted her blindness and devotion to a man who turned out to be so heartless!
The village chief still appeared concerned. “Are you sure you won’t report this to the authorities?”
Su Bin responded coldly, “Are you afraid of us reporting you?”
The village chief retorted, “Why should I be afraid of you reporting me?” Qin Zhenzhen stood by Su Bin’s side and confronted Village Chief Wang.
“You know very well whether you should be afraid or not! You must have heard about what happened to those who tried to frame Su Bin; they got what they deserved. I don’t think you’re luckier than the woman from the brothel!”
“So, if you want us to drop the case, you’ll need to pay 100 liang as compensation, in addition to the divorce!”
The chief’s and Wang Yizhi’s faces immediately changed upon hearing the amount.
“100 liang? That’s a robbery!” exclaimed Wang Yizhi.
Qin Zhenzhen responded with arrogance, “And what if it is?”
“Wang Yizhi, don’t think that no one knows about your deeds in the province. You’ll have to face the consequences!” she added confidently.
Wang Yizhi was shocked and furious, wondering how she could be aware of his actions in the province. If she wasn’t, she wouldn’t be so certain that he had the money.
If she had not known about this, she would not have been sure that he had so much money with him.
A rich businessman’s fat and ugly daughter fell for him. He also fell for the rich businessman’s family’s wealth. And he had not got a son.
He could not wait to hook up with the daughter of a rich businessman. That woman was very generous and offered 100 liang whenever she was pleased..
But the woman also made it clear that he was going to get rid of his wife at home, or she was going to teach him a lesson.
The day before he returned home, the woman told him that she was already pregnant with his child.
Realizing that he couldn’t delay any longer, he sought the help of hooligans to come up with a plan.
If Qin Zhenzhen exposed this information, it would ruin his future. Regardless of whether she knew the truth or not, he was willing to spend some money to make the problem disappear.
Wang Yizhi clenched his teeth. “Su Lan, I’ll write the divorce papers and get the money! You asked for this, don’t regret it in the future!” he declared with bitterness before turning around and storming back home.
Everyone present was left in shock. Had they heard correctly?
Even the village chief and Wang Yizhi’s mother couldn’t believe it. Wang Yizhi had agreed to provide 100 liang, but where did he suddenly get the money?
Qin Zhenzhen was equally surprised. She hadn’t anticipated that Wang Yizhi would agree to her proposition. Her intentions were similar to Su Bin’s – she knew going to the authorities would be futile, so she aimed to protect Su Lan first and deal with Wang Yizhi later.
She was aware of the wealthy woman who had taken a liking to Wang Yizhi; she had both money and influence. If a lawsuit were filed, her family would likely bribe the County Magistrate with a substantial amount of money..
