Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 821 - 816: Insisting on Divorce
Fang Pingying knew why Mrs. Liu stopped her, and indeed, she really owed Mrs. Liu an explanation.
So, she paused, turned back, walked over to Mrs. Liu, gave her a slight smile, and before Mrs. Liu could ask her question, she calmly said, "Mrs. Liu, to be honest with you, there have been so many things between our Zhiyong and Aunt Xiutao. As for acknowledging it or not, this is the situation as it stands, so I don't recognize this relationship of yours."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu's expression suddenly became agitated, and she hurriedly said, "That's not what you said last time; you promised me personally that you would definitely invest."
"Last time?" Fang Pingying let out a sarcastic laugh, "Think carefully, did I ever say personally that I would definitely invest? I only said I'd consider it, and if there were no issues, we'd sign a contract. Now I've thought it through and feel I can't sign the contract."
"You..." At this moment, Mrs. Liu knew she had been played by Fang Pingying, but she couldn't say anything, because although Fang Pingying didn't directly accuse her, she knew Fang Pingying had understood the whole situation.
Seeing Mrs. Liu like this, Fang Pingying decided to make things clearer, "Originally, if business matters were discussed openly and honestly, without tricks, there might have been room to negotiate. But now I feel there's no need. I don't just not want to invest in your supermarket, I don't even want to acquire it. I, Fang Pingying, prefer dealing with straightforward people."
"I suggest, in the future, don't come bothering our family anymore. Spend more time sorting out your own household issues."
Having said that, Fang Pingying didn't want to continue discussing with Mrs. Liu and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Mrs. Liu reached out again to pull Fang Pingying, "No, Pingying..."
But this time, Fang Pingying didn't stop, avoided Mrs. Liu's touch, and called out, "Let's go."
After speaking, Fang Pingying called Luo Zhiyong to leave. As for the others, Fang Pingying wouldn't say whether they should go or stay; after all, they were Zhou Yunmei's biological children, and however they chose, Fang Pingying wouldn't interfere.
Especially considering what Zhou Yunmei had done in the past, perhaps in their eyes, she hadn't gone too far this time.
But upon hearing Fang Pingying call Luo Zhiyong to leave, Luo Cuilan and Luo Zhiming stayed silent, while Luo Honglan immediately followed, saying, "Big brother, sister-in-law, I'm going with you."
Fang Pingying nodded, and they all left together.
Here, Mrs. Liu, having received Fang Pingying's definite words, knew her hopes were utterly dashed and was dumbfounded.
What she thought was a sure thing ended up like this. Now, going back, she didn't know how to explain things to Mr. Liu. More seriously, her entire household might be ruined, and it was by her own hands.
As Fang Pingying said, if they hadn't used those means, they could have at worst sold the supermarket to Fang Pingying, losing some money but they would get through. However, now Fang Pingying didn't even want to acquire it, which meant there was only a dead end for their family.
At this moment, she didn't know what to do, just stood there blankly, her eyes full of confusion, even having thoughts of not wanting to continue facing the future problems her family would have.
Similarly affected was Zhou Yunmei, but she remained relatively calm compared to Mrs. Liu.
She had anticipated offending Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying through this, and was mentally prepared for them not caring about her in the future, which is why she did this.
However, she didn't expect the matter to be caught red-handed by the family, and for Luo Dashan to be so determined about divorce.
Though not particularly fond of Luo Dashan, in the end, she is a typical woman, and the thought of being divorced by a man made her panic.
Moreover, now that Luo Dashan was driving her away, if she returned to the countryside, everyone would know she was divorced by Luo Dashan. How could someone so concerned with face deal with that?
Instantly, she collected the money she was holding to hit Mrs. Liu, and called out to Luo Cuilan and Luo Zhiming, who were still standing in place, "Let's go back, once we're home, please persuade your dad not to divorce me; I'll sincerely admit my mistakes, and he must forgive me."
Seeing Zhou Yunmei still not willing to give up, Luo Cuilan hesitated before finally saying what was on her mind, "Mom, perhaps it's better for you to return to the countryside to live. You heard what my big brother said, didn't you? If you stay here, even Dad won't look after you."
Once she understood from Luo Cuilan's words that even she wasn't inclined to help plead her case with Luo Dashan, Zhou Yunmei's expression changed immediately, glaring at Luo Cuilan, "Cuilan, just because Fang Pingying found you a job, you're taking their side, have you forgotten who I am to you?"
Seeing that Zhou Yunmei still had not learned her lesson, Luo Cuilan felt there was no point in continuing, sighed helplessly, and said, "Mom, if you keep talking like this, I won't bother with you anymore."
After speaking, Luo Cuilan turned back to Luo Dashan's room.
With only Luo Zhiming remaining, Zhou Yunmei quickly turned to him, "Zhiming, you're the only one who can help mom now."
In this matter, Luo Zhiming shared the same opinion as Luo Cuilan, and he advised Zhou Yunmei, "Mom, big sister is right; I think it's better for you to return to the countryside. You have some money now, and after you return, just focus on taking care of Zhuzhu; life won't be hard. I and big sister can send you some living expenses monthly, and everyone will go on a little more peacefully."
"You..."
Seeing Zhou Yunmei's expression about to blame him again, Luo Zhiming frowned, unwilling to listen to more of her talking, and also turned back to Luo Dashan's room.
Luo Cuilan and Luo Zhiming returned to Luo Dashan's room almost simultaneously, to find Luo Dashan pacing around, packing his things.
Seeing them, Luo Dashan immediately called to them, "You both came at the right time. Pack your mom's things and let her know tomorrow we're going back to the countryside to handle the divorce papers."
When it came to divorce, Luo Cuilan and Luo Zhiming were about to attempt to dissuade him, "Dad, do you really have to divorce? Actually, mom she..."
"If you still want to recognize me as your father, don't persuade me anymore." From the beginning to the end of this, Luo Dashan never lost his temper, but the decisiveness in his tone was undeniable, "You saw for yourselves this time; I gave her a chance, yet she keeps scheming against the family. How can you expect me to continue living with someone like that?"
