Bound To The Divorce System - Chapter 26
Ch. 26 Brother
Bai Ertang was also lazy to complain about the sweeper uncle, and there is no need to care about an old man who works hard to make money.
What’s more, she can’t even protect herself at the moment, it’s too difficult for her to get a divorce.
“Since we could use private detectives to find evidence of the male lead’s derailment last time, we can also use private detectives and the media this time to let them expose the fact that Zhong Qiao is gay. As long as I hide behind the scenes and manipulate everything, it will be okay.”
Bai Ertang had an idea, but she had to use the power of the lolita system. Although doing so has the potential to result in under-rated task evaluation.
[Host, a private detective has been recommended for you, and the information has been transmitted to your consciousness.]
This detective, whose pseudonym is Thursday, is an excellent detective in the city, and is also very mysterious. He never releases his information to the public. Only old customers will know his contact information through introductions.
“Good.” Bai Ertang immediately called and contacted Thursday, and made an appointment.
Bai Ertang took a rest, and when it got dark, she put on a hat and a mask, and then went out secretly. She didn’t dare to drive, so she took a taxi to the nearby restaurant.
Then Bai Ertang reported the table number, and the waiter took her directly to the innermost secret place, where Thursday was already waiting for her.
Although he is not too tall, he looks handsome.
Bai Ertang explained her situation, but she didn’t expect to rejected by Thursday, “Miss Tang, I can’t take your case.”
“Ah? Why? I can give you a satisfactory price.”
“Miss Tang, this is not about money . It’s because the person you want to investigate, Zhong Qiao, is not someone to mess with.”
“…Ah? He’s just a doctor. Although his parents are officials, they are not high ranking officials.”
“You don’t know Zhong Qiao, he is not a simple doctor. The risk of messing with him is not small. Also, there are people behind him, and you can’t mess with them either.”
Bai Ertang looked confused, “He is not simple, what do you mean? Who is behind him?”
“Well, I can’t tell you, after all, I don’t want to cause trouble for myself.”
“…”
Looks like she kicked an iron plate this time, “I can give you money.”
“It’s not impossible to answer your question, 30,000.”
Bai Ertang stared, “Why don’t you just go rob it?” Although Tang Yu is a university teacher, and her husband’s family has a lot of money, but she doesn’t actually have a lot of savings, and although her in-laws bought a car and a house for their marriage, but it’s all in the name of Zhong Qiao, and as for jewelry, it can’t be cashed out for a while. It is too extravagant to take out 30,000 casually like this.
Thursday sneered, “You still dare to come to me if you don’t even have money. Miss Tang, you came to me today to investigate Zhong Qiao’s matter, I won’t tell it to anyone, this is enough for me to show my loyalty. You can come back when you have collected 30,000 yuan and ask me!”
After speaking, he stood up on and left carelessly. Bai Ertang was in a rage. Just as she was about to catch up to him to teach him some life lessons, she was pulled back by the waiter, “Miss, you haven’t paid yet!”
Damn it!
Bai Ertang almost vomited blood.
What is this?
The matter was not done, and Bai Ertang also had to pay more than 100 yuan for the bill, but in order to avoid wasting it, she ate a table of dishes before going home. As a result, she was a little stretched after eating, and her stomach felt uncomfortable all the way back.
[Host, why are you doing this?]
Food can’t be wasted.

When she arrived at the door of the house, she found someone waiting for her, it was Tang Yu’s brother Tang Han.
“Brother, why are you here?” Bai Ertang was taken aback for a moment. Bai Ertang took a not too approaching attitude towards this brother. From Tang Yu’s consciousness, she learned that Tang Yu and Tang Han had a normal sibling relationship since childhood. They are five years apart, and Tang Han used to live on campus since his junior high. They don’t spend much time together, so their relationship is not very deep. Moreover, Tang Han has an indifferent personality and is not close to Tang Yu.
“Come and see you. You were discharged from the hospital today, but I didn’t have time to pick you up. I thought you would be resting at home, so I came to your house directly. I rang the doorbell, but no one opened the door. So I guessed that you went out.”
“Oh, I went out to eat.”
“Did you go alone? Where’s brother-in-law?” Tang Han frowned, “Yesterday, Zhong Qiao explained to me that he accidentally pushed you, but I always felt that something was wrong. You and our parents, is there something you are hiding from me?”
Since Bai Ertang came to this world, she was either slapped by her parents, or thrown by her husband and hit a pillar. Her heart was very aggrieved, and now that she has a brother who cared about her, she explained the matter without thinking much.
In the living room.
Tang Han was stunned, “You mean, he likes men?” Tang Han stammered and seemed to be unable to accept it for a while.
After all, this kind of thing is too out of touch with Tang Han’s environment. Tang Han has a girlfriend and is a physical education teacher in a middle school. The news that his brother-in-law is gay is probably too hard to accept.
Bai Ertang finally met a normal person, and couldn’t help but vomit out her grievances in an instant, “Yeah, and my parents’ business is not good, and they can’t afford pay the bank loan. They have to rely on the mediation of the Zhong family, so I am not allowed to divorce Zhong Qiao.”
Tang Han frowned, “They didn’t tell me anything about this. They were too much! The Zhong family coerced you not to get a divorce for the sake of face. It’s too unreasonable!”
“Yes. I wanted to endure it, but they want me and Zhong Qiao to have a child and then get a divorce. But I can’t accept it, it’s irresponsible of me, and even more irresponsible towards the child.” Bai Ertang almost burst into tears.
Tang Han felt distressed when he saw it, “I didn’t expect things to be so complicated, Xiaoyu, don’t worry, let’s find a way together… Do you have any plans now?”
“I originally wanted to find a detective to investigate Zhong Qiao, look at who he is…I didn’t expect the detective to refuse. I’m so pissed off. What dare not investigate Zhong Qiao…”
“Yes, Zhong Qiao’s family has a background after all. You don’t interfere in this matter, let me find a way.”
