The negotiation had reached an impasse.
Lu Lingche knew that continuing the discussion was pointless: “Mom, I’ll handle the divorce myself. You don’t need to worry about it anymore, go home first.”
Madam Lu glared hatefully at Qiao Yin and turned to leave.
Lu Lingche looked at Qiao Yin and spoke coldly: “You shouldn’t have talked to my mom like that, you went too far.”
Qiao Yin’s eyes had uncontrollably turned red: “Lu Lingche, you shouldn’t have treated me like this. You married me, allowed another woman to bear your child, and then kicked me aside. You went too far.”
Lu Lingche unusually didn’t retort and fell silent.
Because he knew deep down, he was indeed in the wrong in this matter.
“I’ll compensate you in the divorce, but one billion is impossible. Think it over for a few days and give me a reasonable figure.”
Having said that, he also left.
In the luxurious villa, only Qiao Yin was left in a flash.
She tugged at the corner of her lips, revealing a smile akin to crying: “Everyone has stormed out, making it seem like I’m the master of the villa.”
Having muttered to herself, she lowered her head and looked at her trembling hand. The tough disguise on her face had vanished.
Her calm demeanor just now was all a facade.
She was never good at arguing, but when she was pushed to the edge, even a rabbit could bite.
Lu Lingche had done such an absurd thing, and Madam Lu even had the shame to come and insult her. How could she keep getting pushed around?
After calming down a bit, Qiao Yin took out her mobile phone and called her father Qiao Haidong.
“Dad, did you borrow money from the Lu family?”
“Yes, what’s wrong?”
“How much did you borrow from them?”
“Eighty million.”
“Isn’t your debt forty million? What are you doing borrowing so much?”
Qiao Haidong said as if it was a matter of course: “The Lu family is not short of money. Since I had already asked them, I definitely needed to borrow more. After repaying my debts, I need capital to reopen the company, don’t I?”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yin’s blood began to boil, and she felt extremely frustrated by him.
“Didn’t I say not to borrow money from the Lu Family? We should find our own solutions to our debts. Why do you have to beg them?”
Qiao Haidong also became angry, thinking his daughter was being unreasonable: “We’re at our wit’s end, debt collectors are bothering us every day, they are driving me to the wall! What’s wrong with borrowing money from the Lu family? They are our in-laws, isn’t it right for them to help us?”
“When I previously asked you to help me borrow money from the Lu family, you hesitated and put it off. But now, when I do it myself, you still try to stop me. If we all behaved as loftily as you, would the company still exist? Could I still live?”
“Tell me honestly, did you perform poorly at the Lu family and offended your mother-in-law? If not, why after my visit, Madam Lu treated me so coldly and spoke in such a mocking tune, as if I shamelessly groveled!”
Qiao Yin was taken aback that her father only knew how to blame her.
She took a deep breath, not willing to argue with her father further: “It has nothing to do with me. Even if I acted excellently, they would still look down on me. Madam Lu’s cold attitude towards you wasn’t solely because of this. There’s a problem with Lu Lingche and I’m preparing to divorce him. Do not visit the Lu Family anymore, and certainly do not borrow money from them.”
“Divorce?!”
Qiao Haidong’s voice raised by a couple of decibels: “Have you gone mad? What nonsense are you talking about? You absolutely cannot get a divorce! We have finally managed to cling to this big tree that is the Lu family, we cannot let go! You better take care of Lu Lingche attentively, be respectful to your parents-in-law, do you hear me!”
Qiao Yin couldn’t control her emotions any longer, she was feeling too heartbroken, her voice choked with emotion: “Dad, don’t you want to ask why I want a divorce?”
“What’s there to ask? At most Lu Lingche just has a woman on the side, isn’t it normal for a young master from a prestigious family to have a woman outside?”
“Don’t act wilfully and create trouble. Let me tell you, just turn a blind eye to such issues, it’s nothing if a man plays around outside, as long as he’s a good husband when he comes home!”
“The Lu family, a large clan, cares about their reputation. Even if you endure some hardships now, they will surely not treat you poorly in the future!”
