Bound To The Divorce System - Chapter 21

Ch. 21 Can’t get a divorce

    Zhong Qiao braked suddenly and the car stopped on the side of the road.

    He stared at Bai Ertang, his eyes no longer warm, but rather murderous, “You, you are wrong.” He told at Bai Ertang, word by word.

    “I’m not blind.” Bai Ertang didn’t show weakness at all, “Zhong Qiao, I don’t plan to expose anything. At tonight’s family dinner, please file for a divorce. The reason is that our personalities don’t match, so we can no longer be together. Congratulations, you’re free. This is my anniversary gift for you.”

    Zhong Qiao stared at Bai Ertang coldly for more than ten seconds, then suddenly smiled, “Okay, but you’d better ask your parents first. Do they agree?”

    “What does my marriage have to do with my parents?”

    “If you don’t ask, how do you know. Now, get out of the car, I don’t want to see you.”

    “…”

    This dog man, changes his face really fast.

    Bai Ertang had to get out of the car, and she naturally didn’t plan to go to work. Although Bai Ertang inherited Tang Yu’s memory, but she did not inherit Tang Yu’s talent, it is impossible for her to replace Tang Yu to teach arts at the university.

    What kind of bullshit setting is this? So during my stay, I can only ask for leave.

    [Host, one minute on stage needs ten years of work off stage. If the host can learn skills without a teacher, this is too unreasonable.]

    Okay, I don’t want to waste time anyway, but there is something wrong with what Zhong Qiao said just now. I’ll go see Tang Yu’s parents first to check the situation.

    It’s doesn’t look that simple.

    “You must never get a divorce.”

    Bai Ertang was interrupted by her mother.

    Bai Ertang thought that Mother Tang didn’t understand what she said, “Mom, do you understand homosexuality? It’s this man, he doesn’t like women, he has his own partner, and marrying me was just a scam, do you understand?”

    Mother and Father Tang looked at each other, “Even so, you can’t get a divorce. Dear daughter, you always listen to your parents. This time also, listen to us, we won’t do you harm.”

    In the hearts of Mother and Father Tang, Tang Yu is a very obedient and sensible daughter. She has always obeyed her parents’ wishes and won’t talk back, so the two of them are still very calm at this time.

    “Ah?”

    Bai Ertang was dumbfounded, “Then what’s the point of me being with him? I’m his wife in name, but we’re actually living apart! It’s been a year, he’s hiding it from me, and I’ve only recently found out that he’s gay.”

    “What’s wrong with that? What’s wrong with being a couple that stays separate? There are very few couples who don’t fight. They don’t even end up being together throughout their life. I think you and Zhong Qiao are pretty good. At least you don’t fight. Even if it’s on the surface, that’s ok.” Mother Tang’s tone sounded indifferent.

    Bai Ertang’s jaw dropped, how does this sound reasonable.

    Is a couple who don’t fight, a good example these days?

    “Then, how are both of you still a couple? You and my dad fought all the time, but you still have a child. Zhong Qiao and I don’t even have a married life…”

    “Zhong Qiao likes men, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a child.” Father Tang said in a tone as if it doesn’t matter, “After two years, if you want to have a child, you can let Zhong Qiao cooperate with you. It’s not difficult.”

    Het head hurts, hum, are you sure Tang Yu is their biological child? Are these parents real? Is it my brain, or are they mentally ill?

    [Host, everything is normal. Tang Yu is biological, and Tang Yu’s parents are not crazy. ]

    …

    There must be a problem somewhere. She hasn’t heard of any parent who think it’s okay for their daughter to marry a gay.

    “Forget it, if you don’t agree, then don’t agree. I’ll go get a divorce myself.”

    Bai Ertang decided to do it herself. Anyway, Tang Yu has her own career, not relying on her husband’s family or her parents’ family. It’s just a divorce, no big deal.

    “No!”

    Father Tang stared at Bai Ertang very sternly, “You and Zhong Qiao must never divorce!”

    “Xiaoyu, what’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you listening to your parents? It’s so nice, why do you still want a divorce!” Mother Tang frowned, “Can your parents hurt you? Listen to us, okay!”

    This made Bai Ertang very angry. Originally these two were not her parents, but now that they were so unreasonable, Bai Ertang directly exploded, “You don’t need to worry about it, my divorce is my own business!”

    She said that and stood up to leave, but before she had time to turn around, Mother Tang grabbed Bai Ertang, tears streaming down her face, “Xiaoyu, you can’t leave, our business is actually dead, so we borrowed money. We need a lot of money, and if we don’t have the Zhong family as a backer, we can’t do business as our money is not enough. And if that happens, we can only jump off the building!”

    “…”

     Jump of the building?

    [Host, what do you think? They are the parents of the female protagonist. The female protagonist has deep feelings for her parents and doesn’t want to disobey them. That’s why you are asked to help her get a divorce. But you can’t completely ignore the female protagonist’s mood. If you don’t care about divorcing like this, the main system will definitely not let you pass and you will get a negative score.]

    Oh. Looks like divorce today is just a pipe dream.

    So she can only swallow it? Bai Ertang refused to accept it. She carefully interrogated her parents’ family situation. It turned out that the family’s business had almost gone bankrupt two years ago. And because of the interest, they owed almost tens of millions.

    However, the family’s business has not improved, and they can only barely maintain it. This tens of millions of debts cannot be made up now. Right now, the banks and private lenders have long been impatient, but because Tang Yu’s in-law’s family intervened, they didn’t push the Tang family too hard.

    “Ten million?”

    Bai Ertang thought about it, the problem was not big.

    “Mom and Dad, the market value of the villa you live in is one million. If you sell the BMW at home, it will be enough to pay off the debt, and there will even be one million left.”

    Bai Ertang’s head turned quickly, and she came up with a countermeasure at once.

    Mother and Father Tang were dumbfounded, “Ah? Sell the villa? Sell the car? Then what do we live in and how do we go out?

    “We can buy a house in the suburbs with the remaining money, and as for the question of travelling, it’s actually very easy. The subway and bus are very convenient.”

    “What? Going to the suburbs to live in a small apartment? No way!” Father Tang immediately objected.

    “That is, if I go with a bus, then, what should I do with my brand-name bags and clothes, what if they get damaged or soiled? I might as well jump off the building.” Mother Tang also objected.
