The leader is my girlfriend

Chapter 236: Cheng Yanzi's Story of Going to the Countryside (4)

A man and a woman are alone in a room, the door is tightly shut. What is the point of being unable to defend oneself? What is the point of being unable to clear oneself up even by jumping into the Yellow River?

After this incident happened, no matter how hard he tried to explain, no matter how much he swore to the heavens and the earth, the villagers always looked at him with tinted glasses, basically believing that he had done something shameful. Even when he returned home, he had to explain to me in a humble manner.

The person who wronged you knows better than you do how wronged you are, so of course I know he was wronged. At least in the past few years, he probably hasn't had any other thoughts."

After hearing this, Wang Yiming couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised sincerely.

"His image has already plummeted. Under such circumstances, it's even more unlikely that he would ask for a divorce from you, right?"

Cheng Yanzi nodded in agreement, "I think so too, so I won't mention divorce anymore."

Wang Yiming raised an eyebrow and asked with interest, "Are you trying to retreat in order to advance?"

"That's right!" Cheng Yanzi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and then spoke,

"From that day on, I stopped working in the fields. My excuse was that I was too sad to recover. I just stayed at home, eating and drinking, and living a leisurely life. Whenever he tried to resist, I didn't hesitate to abuse him in advance. After all, no one would believe me even if I told others. Not long after, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and, for the first time ever, asked for a divorce."

Wang Yiming asked expectantly, "Did you succeed?"

Cheng Yanzi shook her head and rejected it categorically.

"Not yet. Faced with his request for divorce, I decisively rejected him and told him in no uncertain terms that I wanted to live this kind of life, a life of ease and comfort, and he had to serve me like this for the rest of his life.

I have to die after him, and make sure that I am buried with him after I die, so that he can continue to serve me in the underworld. Otherwise, I will cremate him and scatter his ashes.

He turned around and left without even saying a word. I felt a little regretful. Did I say too much and scare him?

But fortunately, he persisted for a few more months... He finally couldn't stand it again, and I always talked to him about my whole life and what happens after death.

To him, that was a long, unending life! The endless suffering and pain frightened him to death, and in the end, he insisted on divorcing me.

After his repeated and tireless pleadings for almost half a month, I finally couldn't resist him anymore and softened my heart, so I agreed to his request for divorce. The village chief is his uncle, and with this relationship, he can help me with the medical retirement procedures so that I can return to the city.

Before leaving, I made my thoughts very clear: if I ever find life difficult in the city, I will return to the countryside to find him without hesitation. Although we're divorced and our relationship is severed, there's a saying: "Don't judge a monk by his appearance, judge the Buddha by his appearance; don't judge a fish by its feelings, judge the water by its feelings." After all, we still have a child. I gave birth to his eldest son. Even if he doesn't want to remarry me or raise me, he's my son, and he has to take care of me and see me to the end.

He was completely upset when he heard this and insisted I sign an agreement with him before I left. It clearly stipulated that from now on, I must not return to the countryside to see him, and my son and I would completely sever ties. Also, to make amends, he offered to pay me 200 yuan for travel expenses back to the city and divorce compensation.

This was a brilliant move. Wang Yiming suppressed the urge to applaud. "What if he continues to tolerate you and is willing to live with you, but never mentions divorce? What will you do in the end?"

Hearing this question, Cheng Yanzi's lips curled up slightly and she spread her hands, "What else can we do? We can only... torture each other until we grow old together."

Wang Yiming raised his eyebrows. What a familiar line! Sadness refuses to let go~~ Who can force me to give in~~

The next second, Cheng Yanzi burst out laughing. "You're kidding! There's no way he wouldn't agree to a divorce. No one wants to live a hard life, especially one that's so painful from the inside out. As long as I leave his life, his hard times will be over. So he'll do it sooner or later. It's just a matter of whether he's willing or not."

The story of abandoning the husband was over, but the rumor of abandoning the son was still missing. Wang Yiming hesitated for a moment and asked,

"I have one last question. Why didn't you choose to leave with the child?"

"Cheng Yanzi used to be truly devoted to her son. Even under such circumstances, she gave without reservation, and worked hard to save up all the good things for her son. However, 'man is born evil'. Whether this child was bad from the beginning, or was spoiled by his grandmother's deliberate indulgence and discipline, who can say for sure?

In short, one thing is certain - this child is not close to me at all. I even heard him secretly calling my sister-in-law "Mom" in private, and as for me... he called me a bitch, a slut, and a vixen. From the time I woke up until I left, he never called me "Mom" once.

Looking at the family I was born into, you can probably tell that not all parents love their children, right?

"Yes." Wang Yiming nodded in agreement.

"Then similarly, looking at the child I give birth to, you will know that not all children deserve to be loved, right?"

"Yes." Wang Yiming nodded again.

"So, regarding these recent rumors, what's been spread out there is indeed true. I did get divorced, and I did not keep my child. Because that marriage was a complete exploitation and oppression of me, and that child was not worth my love to raise.

I have to say, the most terrifying thing about rumors is... they are often half true and half false. The half that is true is undeniable, and the half that is false allows people to make arbitrary interpretations and add fuel to the fire. So, to be honest, I feel very helpless about these gossips circulating in the factory.

After all, I can't possibly go and explain everything to everyone one by one, right? Besides, people tend to believe what they want to hear, so even if I explain everything clearly, they might not believe me.

Hearing this, Wang Yiming couldn't help but sigh, "You are so frank."

Cheng Yanzi smiled bitterly and shook her head. "What can I do if I'm not honest? I've been through some things, so I've become more open-minded. Sometimes facing things head-on is the best solution."

Wang Yiming drank the tea in his cup in one gulp. "I know the whole story. I will try my best to win it at the meeting this afternoon."

Cheng Yanzi didn't hold out much hope, but expressed her gratitude out of friendship, "Thank you for your help, Deputy Minister."

"You're welcome, Comrade Yan Zi. Now I'm going to go have lunch with my wife. Could you please clean up the fruit peels and paper scraps on the desk? Thank you!"
