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."

"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.
