Chapter 1153: Chapter 1195: Divorcing You

Upon hearing this, Ling’s father was furious and sternly questioned, "Why... why would you do this? Aren’t you just making trouble for no reason? What good does it do for you to let them know the truth about this matter?"

"No good for me! But Ling Shenglan made my life difficult, so I won’t let her off easily! She forced me to do this! I’ve humbled myself to find her, to beg her, even treated her to such expensive food, yet she not only refused to show a good face, but also dared to threaten me! Since she dared to threaten me, she must pay the price for her actions today!" Ling’s mother wiped away her tears forcefully, and thinking of the impending revenge on Ling Shenglan, she felt a lot better.

Ling’s father frowned and decisively refused, "No, I don’t agree, I won’t let you do this! Shenglan’s actions this time were somewhat overbearing and merciless, but in the end, she’s still my own sister. She’s at her age now and I don’t want everyone she cares about to leave her!"

Upon hearing Ling’s mother’s words, Ling’s mother not only didn’t soften, but excitedly said, "Hmph! Still calling her your sister? Does she treat you as her brother? If she really considered you her brother, she wouldn’t have pushed us to the brink! You should know well that if all the money goes back, we wouldn’t have anything left! What about the four of us? Ling Shenglan is not just pushing you, she’s pushing our whole family to the brink! If she’s ruthless, don’t blame me for being ruthless too! I will make sure her life is miserable for the rest of her days, and make her regret it forever! Let her dare not offend me, her sister-in-law!"

"We were at fault from the start, that money doesn’t belong to us, it’s only right that she takes it back, how can you retaliate because of this! I’m telling you, I won’t let you do this, and if you dare act on it, don’t blame me for disregarding our marital bond!" Ling’s father looked at Ling’s mother sternly.

He spent his whole life cowering, always listening to his wife. Because of his wife, his only sister ended up hating him to the core!

Even though Shenglan despises him now, she might never acknowledge him as a brother again! But deep down, he still considered Shenglan his only sister! As a brother, how could he bear to watch his sister lose all the family around her!

Ling’s mother snorted dismissively, "Hmph! What I decide doesn’t concern you!" ℴ

"I warn you, if you dare tell this to my brother-in-law and Yueyue, then I will... I will... I will...!" Ling’s father trembled as he pointed at Ling’s mother, repeating "I will" several times, but couldn’t finish the sentence.

Ling’s mother raised her eyebrows at Ling’s father, "What will you do? Do you dare want to divorce me? Let me tell you, a sister is a sister, a wife is a wife! A sister is married and belongs to another family, but a wife stays with you for a lifetime!"

Seeing Ling’s mother still so arrogant at this point, completely disregarding him, Ling’s father became furious, indiscriminately shouting, "I will divorce you! Though a wife may be for a lifetime, there’s only one sister, but you can have many wives! When mom and dad died, I promised them to take good care of Shenglan, but since marrying you, I drove my pregnant sister out, leaving her alone to give birth in Jin City without me being by her side! Later, for you, I recklessly took the support money meant for Yueyue, and on top of that, oppressed a sixteen-year-old girl without regard for her condition in Jin City! For you, I made countless mistakes, though I don’t regret them since you couldn’t have acted alone without me agreeing! It’s not entirely your fault! Now that the matter has escalated to this point, I have nothing to say, we must bear all the consequences! But if you dare to let this escalate to my brother-in-law and Yueyue, I will never forgive you!

Hearing Ling’s father’s words, Ling’s mother was slightly stunned, then slammed the table and asked with a trembling voice, "You... how dare you talk to me like that? Do you know who you’re talking to?"

Married for twenty years, her husband always obeyed her, she never thought he would dare talk back to her like this!

Though they sometimes argued, ultimately he would always compromise, listening to her!

Unexpectedly, today he spoke so decisively.

"I know, of course I know, I’m very clear-headed now, it’s precisely because I know this that I can’t let you do such a thing, otherwise there’s no regard for our relationship!" Saying this, he stood up abruptly and left the private room without looking back, forcefully shutting the door behind him.

As the door slammed shut, Ling’s mother shivered, completely stunned.

She never imagined her husband could be so manly, dare to yell at her and leave slamming the door!

But, he thought she would be scared by this?

Hmph! She wasn’t afraid at all! She would definitely make a big deal out of this, and if Ling Shenglan wasn’t ruined, she wouldn’t forgive herself!

Thinking that, Ling’s mother stood up and followed Ling’s father out! When reaching the ground floor, Ling’s father was settling the bill at the cashier!

Watching red yuan bills passed from Ling’s father to the cashier, Ling’s mother’s heart bled incessantly. And this further deepened her hatred towards Ling Shenglan.

After settling the bill, they left the Good Time Western Restaurant. Ling’s father walked ahead, Ling’s mother followed, neither spoke a word! Ling’s father stayed silent, Ling’s mother said nothing.

After walking for a while, Ling’s father stopped by the roadside, hailed a taxi, and both got in heading back to their temporary lodging. 𝐟𝒓ℯⅇ

After returning to the lodging, Ling’s father silently opened his luggage, took out a notebook and pen, and diligently started jotting something down at the hotel room’s only desk.

Ling’s mother walked over in curiosity, glanced at his notebook, and asked softly, "What are you writing?"

Without lifting his head, Ling’s father replied, "An inventory, I’m drafting a list of all the provisions Yueyue provided us over the years, to hand it over to Shenglan!"

"You...!" Hearing it’s an inventory, Ling’s mother’s extinguished rage flared again instantly.

Ling’s father, head bowed, mumbled: "I don’t want to waste money on hiring a lawyer, nor do I want to really sue my own sister for money. At that point, neither money nor sister would be left! If I take the initiative, maybe Shenglan would forgive me and call me brother once more."
