Chapter 165: He Won't Divorce You
Chapter 165: He Won't Divorce You
Gu Xunjing's eyes sharpened, and he said intently, "Wouldn't it be better for Sui Sui to become the richest woman in Country A in the future than to be Mrs. Zhan?"
What Gu Xunjing said did resonate with Yang Huirong.
If one day her daughter becomes the richest woman in Country A, surpassing all the men, it would be a way to make up for her regret of not having a son.
Her daughter is better than all the boys.
However, this is merely hope.
She looked at Gu Xunjing with increasing wariness.
Now she finally understood why her obedient daughter had been led astray by Gu Xunjing.
He was indeed a playboy skilled at winning hearts; he almost bewitched her with just one sentence.
Yang Huirong snorted coldly, slightly raising her head and saying, "I know my daughter is capable, but wouldn't it be better to balance career and family? With an outstanding and wealthy husband supporting her, her life is already perfect. Why should she pursue the unattainable title of the richest man? Gu Xunjing, I've seen your tricks; you're quite something." Yang Huirong's expression suddenly changed, and she said fiercely, "I'm warning you, stay away from my daughter."
Seeing that Yang Huirong remained unmoved, Gu Xunjing frowned and said, "Zhan Yanxun may be outstanding, and he may be incredibly wealthy. But are those things more important than your daughter's happiness? Have you asked her if she wants to continue living with him? You are Sui Sui's mother, not Zhan Yanxun's mother. What you should consider most is Sui Sui's feelings!"
Yang Huirong retorted defiantly, "Sui Sui is my daughter. Would I ever harm her? It's you who keep saying seductive things and trying to sow discord between her and Zhan Yanxun. They are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
Moreover, Zhan Yanxun was incredibly generous to her, letting her swipe his black card as she pleased. Even if she spent tens of millions a day, he wouldn't bat an eye. How many husbands like that are there in the entire country of A? Can you let my daughter squander money like that? Can you even afford to support my daughter? Have you no shame in clinging to her like this?”
Jiang Qianhui frowned and said, "Mom, please don't take your anger out on Gu Xunjing. My decision to divorce Zhan Yanxun is my own and has nothing to do with Gu Xunjing."
Yang Huirong said angrily, "You love Zhan Yanxun so much, how could you possibly divorce him? You did so much to marry him. Now, only two years into the marriage, you've changed? You still want to divorce him? Have you lost your mind?"
Jiang Qianhui remained silent. To her mother, it had only been two years since she had been married to Zhan Yanxun.
However, for her, she and Zhan Yanxun had an irreconcilable past life.
Jiang Qianhui's eyes trembled as she said, "Mom, when I wanted to marry Zhan Yanxun, you said I was impossible to persuade, but now that I want to divorce him, no one can force me to drink water."
Today, Jiang Qianhui is determined to divorce Zhan Yanxun. He dared to touch her brother, and she won't let it go so easily.
"What do you mean by this? Are you determined to get a divorce?"
Yang Huirong's face turned red with anger. Jiang Che frowned and said, "Aunt Yang, you have high blood pressure, don't be angry. We should trust Suisui, as long as she's happy."
Jiang Che was still worried about Aunt Yang's health. Three years ago, Aunt Yang suddenly fainted at home. He took her to the hospital, where the doctor specifically instructed him that Aunt Yang must not get angry and must keep a peaceful state of mind, otherwise she might suffer from hemiplegia.
Yang Huirong angrily pushed Jiang Che away and said, "I don't need your crocodile tears. You're so proud of yourself for leading my good daughter astray, aren't you?"
"Mom, my brother is really worried about you. Why can't you try to understand him? He truly cares about you, and he's willing to give anything for you."
"Pah! Easier said than done. I don't care. Even if I don't have a son in this life, I still have a son-in-law. A son-in-law is half a son. When I die, I'll have my son-in-law carry my coffin. That bastard son of his can get as far away from me as possible!"
Jiang Qianhui felt as if a knife had pierced her heart. How could she tell her mother that the son-in-law she had always loved like a son had caused the destruction of her Jiang family and left her with a stroke and paralysis in her previous life?
Just as Jiang Qianhui was about to lose control, Jiang Che stopped her and said, "Qianhui, Aunt Yang's body can't be agitated. Let's talk it out properly, and Aunt Yang will understand."
Jiang Che's words of comfort calmed Jiang Qianhui down temporarily.
After all, she knew that her mother would really be paralyzed if she suffered a shock.
She couldn't let her mother suffer the same torment she had in her previous life!
"I know that as a mother, I don't want to see my daughter get divorced, but I have tried my best to prove myself. I now have the strength and ability to support our Jiang Group, and I am also capable of living a good life on my own. I don't necessarily have to depend on Zhan Yanxun for my life."
Jiang Qianhui tried her best to control her emotions, but her voice still trembled uncontrollably.
"Dependence? You and Zhan Yanxun are already married. You are his wife. Husband and wife should live together in harmony for life. What do you mean by dependence? You are now the president's wife of the Zhan Group. What else do you want? Why do you have to make a fuss about divorce?"
Yang Huirong was furious at Jiang Qianhui's insistence on divorce. At that moment, no one was more desperate than Jiang Qianhui.
Her mother couldn't understand her, and she was worried that her mother's body couldn't withstand the stimulation.
That feeling of being unable to express the bitterness, like a mute eating bitter herbs, was so overwhelming that Jiang Qianhui felt like she was about to break!
Seeing that her daughter no longer talked back, Yang Huirong's anger subsided somewhat.
"Is it because you think Zhan Yanxun has something going on with that female secretary that you insist on getting a divorce? I've already asked him, and he said he has no improper relationship with that woman. You will always be Mrs. Zhan for the rest of your life!"
"I'll always be Mrs. Zhan for the rest of my life? Haha, how generous of him to say that! Should I thank him?"
"Sui Sui, what kind of attitude is this?"
"Mom, I don't want to be Mrs. Zhan anymore. Do you know why I'm so eager to get a divorce? It's because I'm afraid that if something happens to me, I'll die and be buried in their family's ancestral graveyard. That makes me feel... disgusted."
Jiang Qianhui said the last two words through gritted teeth, her eyes desolate and filled with deep-seated hatred.
"What kind of unlucky things are you saying, child? Tell your mother the truth today: is it because you can't have children, or because that woman wants to divorce Zhan Yanxun?"
Jiang Qianhui remained silent, because saying anything at this moment would be of no use!
She couldn't change her mother's prejudice against her brother, nor could she change her mother's approval of Zhan Yanxun.
She felt hatred, self-blame, heartache, and even more helplessness.
"Yan Xun said that even if he is unable to have children, he will not divorce you."
