Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife-Chapter 353 Disagree with Divorce
Chapter 353: Chapter 353 Disagree with Divorce
Back home, the two began to discuss their next steps.
"Wenbin probably won’t agree to a divorce; a divorce would cost him too much, especially his position at work. As long as he wants to advance his career, he won’t agree to a divorce."
Qin Yang brought up divorce at the police station, and Wenbin reacted strongly.
These days, a stable marriage plays a crucial role in one’s career development.
Especially for someone like Wenbin, even if the relationship is strained, they would maintain a facade to prevent marriage from becoming a stumbling block in their careers.
"This marriage isn’t up to him whether he wants to divorce or not," Lin Chuxia wasn’t indulging him, "Considering the impact on his workplace for a divorce? What about when he committed domestic violence? Tomorrow, I’m going to confront the leadership at his workplace, I don’t believe they can condone this."
Qin Yang shook his head, "It’s hard to say, Wenbin has already disconnected himself from it, pushing all the blame onto Mrs. Zhang and Old Master Zhang, and they admitted they impulsively hit my sister."
"Pfft, those shameless old fools, just because they said it, does it make it true? There’s still another side to my sister’s story."
Lin Chuxia, furious, cursed out loud, recalling Mrs. Zhang’s hypocritical demeanor, feeling that a slap was too light.
Qin Yang, looking at his angry wife, helplessly touched her face, "No swearing."
"I’m just really angry, so what should we do?"
Qin Yang looked solemn, "Let’s prepare for multiple possibilities. Sister is now stable, and the police might come to ask her tomorrow; let’s see the outcome. I’ll also find out more about Wenbin."
This was about probing for Wenbin’s vulnerabilities at work.
Although Lin Chuxia swore to Qin Juan that she would definitely win custody of Ningning,
But Qin Juan having no stable job or income source, if Wenbin doesn’t let go, it would be very difficult for Qin Juan to get custody of Ningning.
"Alright, I’ll talk to sister tomorrow again, to see what other advantages we have."
After discussing, it was nearly midnight, and they hurriedly went to bed.
The next day Qin Yang went to work as usual, and Lin Chuxia took the packed breakfast to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital room, someone was already there ahead of her.
"Qin Juan, I’ve tried to reason with you, and mom and dad have apologized, what more do you want? Is it just to make them bow down? As a junior, what’s so bad about getting hit by the elders a few times? I don’t believe you haven’t been hit by your parents at home, and yet, you took my parents hitting you twice straight to the police station? After all said and done, you still don’t consider us family, and now you’re even considering divorce, are you thinking I would be scared if you bring up divorce? I have to tell you, the police didn’t pursue my responsibility, even if you keep causing trouble, I won’t divorce, and you won’t be able to divorce as well, don’t push your luck, or I’m really going to make it so you can’t even see Ningning."
Seeing Wenbin’s gesturing wildly in front of the hospital bed, Lin Chuxia directly grabbed his collar.
"Hey... who is it..."
"Early in the morning and already hearing a dog barking, truly disgusting."
Lin Chuxia, while holding him, forcefully threw him aside.
Seeing Lin Chuxia, Wenbin instinctively looked behind her for Qin Yang, and upon not seeing him, he relaxed.
"I’m saying, sister-in-law, haven’t you been married to Qin Yang for over a year now, don’t you know the saying a couple fights at the head of the bed but ends it at the foot? Your elder sister-in-law and I just had a small quarrel, it will pass in a couple of days. It’s not good for you to meddle in others’ family affairs, right? I gave you face yesterday, but if this continues, I won’t be polite anymore." freeweɓnøvel.com
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward.
Qin Juan on the bed, seeing Wenbin’s demeanor, her face drained of color, and she tried to get out of bed regardless, "Wenbin, what are you trying to do?"
But before she could step forward, she saw her frail sister-in-law, swing her arm and deliver a solid slap.
With a "smack," the sound echoed in the empty hospital room.
Qin Juan found the scene familiar; when she was dragged out from under the bed yesterday, she seemed to have seen her sister-in-law slap someone in a daze.
The one being slapped was her mother-in-law, Zhang Wenbin’s mom.
Zhang Wenbin did not expect the other party to strike as soon as she said she would, so swiftly that he couldn’t even dodge in time.
The thick glasses on his nose were knocked off, blurring his vision.
"You dare hit me, just you wait, just you wait..."
As Zhang Wenbin spat out his threats, he fumbled for his glasses.
It took him a while to find and put them back on, only to see cracks all over the left lens.
At least his vision was clear again.
He then saw the young woman opposite him beckoning with her fingers, "Come on, I’m waiting. Isn’t the hospital room a little too small? Why don’t we take this outside to the yard? It’s been a long time since I’ve exercised my limbs. Slapping is really not as satisfying as punching."
Somehow, despite facing only a frail woman, Zhang Wenbin felt intimidated.
Having grown up, he always prided himself in knowing when to advance or retreat for benefits, but now his instincts told him this was not a woman to provoke.
Not just because of Qin Yang behind her, but he couldn’t be sure if he could take her down by himself.
"Decent men don’t fight women, and considering that we’re still relatives, I’ll let this go."
"Ugh, who relates to you? Having you as a relative is my shame."
Qin Yang forbade her from swearing, but right now Qin Yang wasn’t here, so she could say it.
Unable to handle Lin Chuxia, Zhang Wenbin turned his anger towards Qin Juan.
"My parents are still at the police station. They’re old and can’t handle the hardship. Clean yourself up a bit, come with me to the station, explain that this is a family matter, bring my parents back. Then I’ll let you see Ningning. Can’t our family just get along? You’re not getting any younger—after the divorce, who would want you... What are you doing?"
Zhang Wenbin stopped mid-sentence when he saw Lin Chuxia step forward again and quickly assumed a defensive posture.
"I see you can’t speak properly."
Lin Chuxia was about to make a move when Jia Liang’s voice came from outside.
"Mr. Lin, do you really need to handle this yourself? Let us do it."
By Jia Liang’s side, Qin Jianjun was already clenching his fists, throwing a punch at Zhang Wenbin, "That’s for hitting my aunt."
Despite Zhang Wenbin and Qin Juan’s bluster and fierce demeanor, in reality, being skinny as a stick and self-proclaiming as an intellectual, he was no match for Qin Jianjun, who was accustomed to farm work.
Jia Liang didn’t even need to make a move; the beating had Zhang Wenbin screaming.
After all, they were in a hospital, concerned about disturbing other patients, Lin Chuxia felt it was enough and stopped them.
Jia Liang directly lifted Zhang Wenbin and threw him out into the yard.
Zhang Wenbin was still waving his hands and shouting, "Help, they’re beating me..."
Suddenly feeling no more pain, he saw Qin Jianjun looking at him with scorn.
"Such a coward, a weakling. If I ever hear you hit my aunt again, you’ll have me to answer to."
Getting beaten and insulted by a younger person, Zhang Wenbin lost all face; turning his head, he saw many people nearby enjoying the spectacle.
All eyes were on him.
