Chapter 873: No Better Food Than Your Meatballs, No Better Fun Than Your In-laws!
Everyone here wanted to be dignified and respected. If it had been something else made public, it would be okay, but this kind of humiliation no man could tolerate.
Although Liang Weimin had always been a nice guy, there was no way he could tolerate something like this.
Especially since the guy who had slammed the green hat on him was his brother-in-law.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own two eyes, perhaps he could still lie to himself. But now, he’d all but caught them in the same bed.
His brother-in-law had slept with his wife! This kind of immoral green hat would make him a laughingstock back in Muyang.
Liang Weimin trembled with anger. That slap that he’d given to Chen Lixue was the most force he’d ever used in his life. It had been so hard that there was blood starting to seep out of the corners of Chen Lixue’s mouth.
Even Yun Xi who had been watching from the sidelines felt sorry for Chen Lixue.
Uncle was usually soft and malleable, yet on an issue like this, his strikes were really no less hard than any other man’s would have been.
“Liang Weimin, how dare you hit me!” After taking this slap across her face, Chen Lixue pressed on her cheek and stared at her husband with bloodshot eyes.
She had been pampered in the Liang family all these years and had been the person in charge of all matters in the household. Liang Weimin had never even dared to raise his voice to her, yet today he had hit her in front of so many people.
He had actually dared to hit her!
This slap was like the spark that ignited the fuse, immediately kindling her desire to divorce Liang Weimin, which she had long been thinking of.
She had stayed with him for so many years, living in poverty and with no dignity. She had become so sick of that depressing village in the mountains in the middle of nowhere.
She’d only discovered exactly how big the world really was after coming to Jingdu and seeing how prestigious and glamorous and wealthy a director’s wife was.
Whatever Liang Xiuqin had plundered from her back then, she was determined to snatch it back bit by bit.
Now that Liang Weimin had seen the truth, it was a perfect opportunity to divorce him.
“Doing such filthy, flagrant things, hitting you was just a light punishment. I shouldn’t have let you come to Jingdu when you wanted to. You’re a goddamn disgrace.”
“I’ve never had any real feelings toward you anyway. You dare to hit me. I dare to divorce you!”
“Dream on!” Liang Weimin would not divorce her even if it meant locking her up till death.
Liang Weimin yelled and screamed at Chen Lixue, to the point that his saliva was hitting her face. It was clear that this whole ordeal had stirred up his deepest wrath.
None of the bystanders had left because Chen Lixue and Liang Xinyi were standing at the door, preventing it from closing. Obviously, they were trying to pressure Yun Yuanfeng into taking responsibility under such mortifying circumstances.
Someone from the crowd suddenly shouted, “Hey, isn’t this Deputy Director Yun? Oh, wait, no, it’s Director Yun now! What a coincidence.”
“Wow, so he’s an official?”
“Having an affair and getting caught red-handed, this will be a pretty big deal if it gets out.”
“It’s not just an affair. Didn’t you hear that his kid is calling that guy uncle? He clearly slept with his sister-in-law.”
“No better food than your meatballs, no better fun than your in-laws!”
“…” When somebody quoted that old proverb, everyone in the corridor burst out laughing.
Liang Weimin had never encountered such a situation before. His face turned so dark it was as though it was an incoming thunderstorm. He had never felt so humiliated in his life.
Hearing the sneers and ridicule from the crowd, Yun Xi looked down a little as she waved her hand in a feeble attempt to get them to disperse, but no one cared about a little kid.
She turned and winked at Jiang Chenghuan, who was standing at the back of the crowd and didn’t want to get directly involved. Yet just as Jiang Chenghuan understood what she meant, Jiang Henglin, who had also been watching the show, walked over.
“I can make them disperse.”
Yun Xi raised her eyebrows as she looked coldly toward the man who was standing in front of her, and she asked scornfully, “Conditions?”
She didn’t believe that he would be so kind-hearted to simply help.
“Beg me! Beg me and I’ll help you.”
Yun Xi smiled derisively and stepped back, raised her head proudly, and showed an expression of unyielding resilience.
“No need. I can settle this without begging you.”
She turned and said something to Yumo, and Yumo quickly left after hearing what she had said.
