"Why doesn't he just die? Why doesn't he just die?"
Just as she returned to the Tang family villa, before the front door had even been closed, the suppressed Lin Qiuling erupted in rage.
"Get this useless piece of trash out of here, out of our Tang family."
She pointed at Tom who hadn't entered the door and shouted, "Get as far away as possible." Tom publicly exposed the calligraphy and painting as fakes, not only slapped Han Jianfeng in the face, but also put her, the protagonist, in an embarrassing situation.
Even a freeloader can tell that it's a fake, but she and Tang Sanguo can't see it. Isn't that worse than useless? Lin Qiuling can't tell everyone that she's deliberately favoring Han Jianfeng. Of course, what she's really angry about is that Ginseng fruit.
It's worth three million.
It promotes longevity.
Such a valuable thing, Tom ate it all by himself.
I want to know, this was originally meant for Tang and myself.
This made Lin Qiuling feel heartbroken.
It's like the feeling of washing away three million lottery tickets in the washing machine.
She feels embarrassed, angry, and aggrieved. But she won't blame the Han Jianfeng couple, only resenting the disobedient Tom. "Get lost, do you hear me?"
Lin Qiuling screamed at Tom: "Tang Jia doesn't want a white-eyed wolf like you."
Tang Sanguo looked helpless, wanting to say something but ultimately remained silent.
Tom didn't enter the room to avoid noise pollution.
After practicing the Tai Chi classics and mastering life and death, Tom unknowingly became confident and composed.
"Mom, what did I do wrong?"
Tom changed his past weakness and spoke confidently and generously:
"The painting wasn't given by me, it was given by my brother-in-law. If you want to scold someone, scold him for giving a fake."
"Also, that Ginseng fruit was also called trash by you guys."
Tom faced Lin Qiuling's sharp gaze calmly: "No matter how uncomfortable you feel, you can't blame me."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Can't I tell that painting is fake? Is that Ginseng fruit real?"
"I saw through it at a glance."
Lin Qiuling shouted sternly, "But in that situation, can I slap your brother-in-law's face?"
"You can't hit your brother-in-law's face, so can you hit mine?" Tom revealed a hint of mockery: "And reversing right and wrong is very unfair to me." Tang Xue couldn't help but frown, feeling that Ye Fan was different from before.
"Hit your face? What kind of face can a son-in-law like you have?"
Lin Qiuling became even more furious: "Is your face comparable to your brother-in-law's?"
"A househusband who only knows how to do housework, how can you compare to your brother-in-law who is a boss?"
"Sword Edge pays tens of thousands of respects to the Tang family every year, and you spent tens of thousands of the Tang family's money. How can you compare?"
"I'm honored to slap your face, you ungrateful wretch."
She pointed at Tom and cursed, "Honored, do you understand?"
In Lin Qiuling's opinion, Ye Fan should endure all oppression and injustice. Any resistance would be considered a great betrayal.
Tom smiled faintly and didn't say anything more, just looked at Tang Ruoxue, hoping she would speak some fair words.
Tom wasn't afraid of Lin Qiuling tearing his face, but he hoped that at this moment he wasn't alone.
He wanted to know for himself that he was a married man.
Tang Ruoxue gave a cold glance and said impatiently, "Alright, it's late at night, stop arguing."
"Tom, apologize to mom."
"No matter what, mom is the elder. If she's upset, it means you're in the wrong."
Tang Xue ultimately sided with Mother: "Hurry up and apologize to mom."
Tang Sanguo Adding a sentence: "Tom, apologize."
Lin Qiuling pointed outside and shouted, "I don't want his apology, I want him to get lost."
Tom took a step forward and said calmly, "Mom, I want to divorce with Axue."
"Okay..." Lin Qiuling subconsciously continued, "If you want to leave, then leave..." Halfway through her sentence, she shivered.
"What did you say?"
Tom repeated, "I want to divorce Axue."
Divorce?
The whole family fell into silence. Lin Qiuling and the others stared in astonishment at Tom. No one had expected Tom to say such a thing.
According to their plan, Tom should kneel down, cry and beg for forgiveness from Lin Qiuling. After all, Tom is useless and can't even find a job, and he needs the Tang family's pocket money to treat Shen Biqin's illness. As a result, he wants to divorce Tang Xue.
This sentence not only shocked Lin Qiuling and the others, but also made them feel uneasy. Tang Xue also looked stunned: "You... want to divorce me?" "Let's part amicably."
Tom said lightly, "For the Tang family, my value as a son-in-law has been exhausted. Staying will only be a burden to you all."
"Xue, bring your household registration book tomorrow. Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce."
Tang Xue's attitude just now extinguished his last trace of hope for the two of them.
She has never considered herself a wife, it's all just wishful thinking on her part.
In her mind, the impression of their first meeting eighteen years ago reappears.
But people change, the girl who used to have a temper but was clear about right and wrong, is long gone...
"Divorce?"
Lin Qiuling also realized and laughed in anger, "A freeloader dares to talk about divorce? You really think highly of yourself, huh?"
In the past few months, she has wanted to divorce Tang Xue and Tom more than once, but there have always been various unexpected obstacles. Lin Qiuling can't wait for Ye Fan to leave the Tang family as soon as possible. But now she doesn't feel the same way.
Because this was Tom's initiative.
Not only her daughter, but also she and the Tang family, feel ashamed.
"What qualifications do you have to talk about divorce?"
Lin Qiuling pointed her finger at Tom and angrily said, "Without the Tang family, you useless person will starve to death in less than two days."
Tom responded calmly, "Let's get a divorce. I don't want to have any connection with the Tang family."
Don't want to have any involvement with the Tang family?
Lin Qiuling laughed in anger, "Fine, divorce, we can get a divorce."
"I won't mention the fifty thousand anymore."
"This year, you've been eating, drinking, and living off the Tang family. You owe us a huge favor." Her voice suddenly raised, "If you want a divorce, fine, but settle this debt first." Tom calmly asked, "How do I settle it?"
"Four Seas Chamber of Commerce owes me Spring Breeze Clinic two million in loans."
Lin Qiuling sneered,
"If you have the ability and courage, go get this money back for me tomorrow."
"I'll get it back, and I'll make Axue divorce you right away."
She pushed Tom to the limit:
"Otherwise, you'll have to do manual labor, sell blood, be a prostitute or a dog, and still owe the Tang family."
Tang Xue's pretty face changed: "Mom..."
"Shut up!"
Lin Qiuling interrupted Tang Xue's words and stared at Tom coldly, saying, "Any problem?"
Tom nodded, "No problem."
Then he walked silently through the hall, went upstairs, and arrived at Tang Xue's bedroom.
The bedroom was a suite, with a small hall leading to an inner room.
Tang Xue lives inside, Tom sleeps on the living room sofa. This year, Tom and Tang Xue are separated by a wall, but they have never been inside the room or had any physical contact. Lin Qiuling occasionally mocks him as a watchdog.
Countless times, Tom longed to sleep in the inner room's big bed.
But after a year, Ye Fan became increasingly aware that it was an unattainable fantasy.
Tonight, Tom realized that it was time to let go...
Tom just sat down on the sofa when Tang Xue pushed open the door and stormed in, saying:
"Tom, what do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to look down on me?"
She bluntly questioned, "On what grounds do you want to divorce me?"
Tom deliberately provokes her: "A crazy woman who can't distinguish right from wrong, staying married to celebrate the New Year?"
"Crazy woman?"
Tang Xue laughs in anger:
"What are you then?"
"I can't find a job, can't do housework well, and have to find a crazy woman to ask for money to treat your mother. You are simply a waste that is even worse than a crazy woman."
She became even more disgusted with Tom, not only weak and incompetent, but also arrogant.
Tom smiled and said, "Since I'm useless, I might as well get a divorce early and part on good terms."
Tang Xue angrily retorted, "You have no right to talk about divorce. Only I can divorce you."
"Do you think you can get back the two million, Tom? Don't overestimate yourself."
She sneered, "You, a useless person like you, will never be able to recover the debt of Four Seas Chamber of Commerce even if you beg for a hundred years..." After saying that, Tang Xue slammed the door and left. She would never believe that Tom could recover the two million debt.
But she had an indescribable feeling in her heart. Because just now, when she locked eyes with Tom, she saw the depth in his eyes. Additionally, there was an unparalleled confidence...
