Bound To The Divorce System - Chapter 33

Ch. 33 Tang Yu compromises

    After the two met, Bai Ertang went straight to the point, “What’s wrong with my brother?”

    “His situation is very bad.”

    Zhang Mi looked at Bai Ertang with a bit of accusation, “And it’s all because of you.”

    Bai Ertang Ertang looked very innocent, “So how bad is his situation and what does it have to do with me?”

    “If it’s not because Tang Han wants to take care of your affairs, he wouldn’t have been punished by the school inexplicably, saying that his teaching level is not good, and needs to be suspended for inspection. Tang Han has been at Jiangyi Middle School for almost ten years. He is an excellent teacher with rich experience. How could he suddenly get suspended? He must have been helping you with your affairs recently, because of which he offended the Zhong family.”

    Bai Ertang immediately refused, “The Zhong family parents are only at the academic level, they can’t cover the sky with one hand. Whatever you want to say, sister, can you please look at the facts and then talk?”

    Seeing Bai Ertang being so rude, Zhang Mi was stunned. After a while, she became even more hysterical, “Do you even know the level of Zhong family? Although they can’t cover the sky with one hand, but several generations of their people have been in various positions and know a lot of people from different fields. If they ask for help from even one of their acquaintances, isn’t your brother finished? Tang Yu, I treat your brother as a family member, so I can’t see his future being ruined by you. You and the Zhong family, you should deal with it yourself. Don’t get your brother involved. Besides, you have nothing to lose, and you can get divorced in the future. You can take the money and find another man you like, is there a problem?”

    Damn, another unscrupulous lobbyist.

    Bai Ertang’s eyes widened, “No problem, if you think this is a good thing, why don’t you do it.”

    Zhang Mi rolled her eyes, “I want to do it, but I can’t. The Zhong family has taken a fancy to you. You are an arts teacher in a university, not a street novelist like me.”

    “…” This made Bai Ertang unable to retort, she stared blankly at Zhang Mi, “You really think this is a good thing?”

    “Isn’t it just a few years, I think it’s a good deal.”

    “…”

    For a while, Bai Ertang was a little confused. Intellectually speaking, what this person said is not unreasonable.

    “If you don’t agree, you will end up hurting your parents as well as your brother. You see, Tang Han, he wants to sell the house to pay your parents’ debt back and get rid of the Zhong family’s coercion. But if your brother sold the house, what will we do in the future, where will we live?”

    Zhang Mi’s remarks made Bai Ertang even more entangled.

    It seems that Tang Han is really dedicated to his sister. She is afraid that she misunderstood him before, it was not him who leaked the news.

    And it seems like she really has no other choice. If she compromised with the Zhong family, everyone will be happy, otherwise, she will become a sinner.

    That night, Bai Ertang saw the real Tang Yu in a dream.

    Under the sea of stars, Tang Yu stood opposite Bai Ertang with a calm expression on her face. Bai Ertang is no stranger to this situation, it seems that Tang Yu has something to say to her.

    “Forget it, I’m not going to get a divorce, let’s do what the Zhong family wants. I don’t want to hurt my parents and brother.”

    “So, you deserve to get hurt?” Bai Ertang hates this kind of Notre Dame theory [1] the most, so she couldn’t help but lash out.

    “I will not lose anything, and it’s only for three to five years, after which I’ll be free.”

    “What about your child? Don’t forget that the Zhong family’s condition for a divorce is that you have a child for them. Are you 100% sure that the child will be happy if he or she is left to a family like the Zhong family? What will you do if they use the same tricks they used on you on this child? You will be gone without any worries, but will your conscience not hurt?”

    “… …Well, that is his life, and he is also the child of the Zhong family. I believe that Zhong Qiao will not treat him badly.”

    “You are just a coward! You are not only accepting your fate but also asking your child to accept his fate. Do you really believe that the child will not be abused? And what if they do abuse him? Can you help him?” Bai Ertang yelled, “You are so irresponsible to not only yourself but the child as well!”

    Tang Yu’s head shrank from being scolded by Bai Ertang, and then tears came out, “But what can I do now, I can’t resist them at all, otherwise my parents, my brother, and even me, myself will not end well!”

    “…Why can’t you do it? Once you compromise, then there’s really no way left! This marriage must end!”

    Bai Ertang, who was still caught up in her anger, made up her mind not to be as cowardly as Tang Yu. This divorce, she is bound to win!

    [Then host, you are thinking about it since early in the morning and already drank three cups of coffee. Did you come up with a solution?] The sound of the system sounded, making Bai Ertang wake up from her reverie.

    Bai Ertang smacked her lips, “Zhong Qiao’s coffee is good.” It turned out that after Bai Ertang woke up in the morning, she found Zhong Qiao’s private coffee beans in the kitchen, grounded a pot of coffee and drank it.

    [Host, you are too calm. We don’t have any plans at all right now.]

    “What are you afraid of, I’ve already gotten two NPCs on my side, and they can always give me some clues to the problem.”

    [Then, why are you just sitting and drinking coffee here?]

    “Otherwise? Don’t you know I am sick, I can’t do anything.”

    However, Bai Ertang was not idle, she planned to continue to fool Zhong Qiao, so she could confuse Zhong Qiao and let him and his partner reveal more flaws.
