“I don’t believe it.” She shook her head, “He won’t compensate me and I can’t get the money. And he has a wife, I know that.”
“But you should say you don’t know he has a wife. Who knows about your private conversations with him? Once he’s involved in a lawsuit, Feng family will find a way for him to avoid getting involved with you, so they’ll be sure to find you and pay you a sum of money to let you withdraw the lawsuit. They won’t refuse a million-dollars ask because Feng family is rich and Moyun is an important tool for them and they won’t let him be in jail because of this.”
She didn’t say anything else after hearing my words and began to think.
“But what if they refuse my offer?” She looked up and asked me.
“Then I’ll get you the best lawyer and will sue until Moyun goes to jail, and I’ll give you the money that they don’t give to you.”
“You give it to me?” She was even more doubtful.
“My rivalry with Feng family is more important, so a million is a small thing for us. I promised to give it to you, and I will.”
She stopped speaking again, for she was still hesitating. “What if Feng family retaliates against me?”
“That’s why you’ll need my help and I’ll find someone to protect you until the lawsuit is over and I’ll pay for the associated costs to make sure you win. ”
“Why are you helping me like this? What do you want?”
“My aim is already clear. I wish Moyun loses everything. That’s it. If he gets into a lawsuit, he won’t be able to fight with me, which you should be very clear.”
She nodded, “You’re just using me.”
I also directly admitted, “I’m just using you, and there’s nothing wrong with that at all. But you’ll get something out of it as well, which you should be happy.”
“Okay, I promise you. But you have to keep your word.”
“Don’t worry, I will.”
After getting this woman, I drove to the hospital.
At the hospital, I met Moyun’ s wife, who had multiple bruises on her face. How cruel Moyun was.
The way she looked at me was more wary than that mistress.
She was his wife and had lived in Feng family for a long time, so of course she knew that her husband and I were deadly rivals.
I put down the nutritional supplements I bought, “How are you? We’re relatives in some ways. I came to see you, so you don’t have to be so nervous.”
She was wary, but she still said thank you.
“As we are relatives, you should be my sister, because Moyun is my cousin.” I said with a smile.
“Don’t mention that asshole. He beat me up like this and I won’t forgive him.” Once I mentioned Moyun, she got excited.
“Then what are you going to do?” I asked her.
“This is my family business, I don’t have to tell you.” She sounded rather unkind.
I sneered, “Family business? Do you still have your home? You’ve been beaten up like this and you hate him so much, so where’s the home? If you get into a fight with Moyun, do you think Xiang will help you, or other family members will help you?”
“What are you trying to say?” She got a little excited.
“I’m just trying to tell you that since the situation can’t be changed, you can’t back down, or else he’ll be too much, and in the future your position in Feng family will be lower.”
This was met with her approval, “Of course I’m not going to back down. I want him to apologize to me!”
I scoffed, “He has a mistress and he beat you up like this, an apology can be OK with you? Aren’t you too easily to be bullied?”
“So, what do you think I should do? Should I divorce him?”
“Of course, you have to sue for divorce, letting him see your attitude. Otherwise he thinks you won’t be able to live without him.”
“But…”
She stopped talking and I could tell that she didn’t want a divorce.
Divorce was something that no one would probably be willing to do unless they really couldn’t tolerate each other.
“If he doesn’t want so, then he has to give you a guarantee. If he agrees to this, then you can share your property with him. What are you afraid of? You’ll get half of his property, so you don’t have to worry
about your future. And he was the one who cheated on you and you are the victim, so why should you put up with it?”
She stopped talking again and asked me guardedly, “What was your intention in persuading me to divorce?”
“First, from a woman’s point of view, I’m not used to this arrogant attitude of Moyun, raising his own mistress and still daring to beat you up. Second, from Feng Moyun’ s counterpart’s point of view, I hope that he has no energy to cause trouble for me, since his life is now in a mess. Besides the two, I can’t get any other benefit. Do you believe me when I say this?”
She didn’t answer.
I don’t think she and I should talk too much. I don’t need to put a lot of effort into convincing her, which would make her even more suspicious instead. I just need to remind her. As for how to decide, she will decide for herself.
“Well, take care. I’ll leave first. I hope you recover soon.”
“Thank you for coming to see me.” She said politely, “Let me walk you out.”
“No, thank you. I hope you don’t mind if I said something wrong.” I smiled.
“What you said made sense. I’ll consider it.”
I was relieved when she said that.
I had achieved my goal.
I had just walked out of the hospital when I met two people. It was Xiang and her driver and assistant.
I wanted to avoid them, but it was already too late. I had no choice but to call out ‘Aunt Feng’.
When she saw me, she was stunned, “Why are you here?”
“I have a cold, so I come over to get some medicine. Is Aunt Feng not feeling well?” I told a lie.
“You have a cold and you’re here to get a prescription?” Xiang looked at me warily.
“Yeah, what’s wrong? Have you also caught a cold?” I continued to pretend.
“Nala Yao, you’re not here to make a mess, are you? What do you want?” She raised his voice.
I pretended to be innocent, “Aunt Feng, what are you talking about? I’ve got a cold. What else can I do? Are you trying to put a trumped-up charge on me?”
“Nala, what kind of person are you, others don’t know, don’t I know? Did you go to see Moyun’ s wife? What did you say to her?” Xiang harshly questioned.
“Moyun’ s wife? Who’s that? I don’t know her. Is she sick, too? So, you are here to visit someone, not sick? That’s great, I’m relieved that you’re healthy.” I said sincerely.
“Nala, don’t play any trick with me. Don’t mess around in my Feng family, if I find out, I definitely won’t forgive you.” Xiang threatened.
“Don’t say so. You and I are both members of Hua family now, what do you mean by causing trouble in your Feng family? Do you not see yourself as a member of Hua family, but a member of Feng family? It’s really dangerous to think that way. If there is a conflict of interest between the two family, then you will not hesitate but to stand on the side of Feng family. How sad will Mr. Hua be if he knows your attitude.”
Xiang, who was speechless by what I said. She pointed at me, snorted and went forward.
I waved my hand at her to say goodbye, “Take care!”
