Chapter 19:Yes, She Wanted a Divorce

Tang Xinyan did not know why she would think of the man whom she would never meet again for the rest of her life.

Although he helped her to get her heels out, he kissed her forcefully and even touched her...

He had taken advantage of her.

Men really were a species that used the lower part of their bodies to think.

After tossing and turning around on her bed, Tang Xinyan finally fell into a deep slumber.

By the time she woke up, it was already noon.

She was soaked in the rain last night. She did not have a very strong physique so it was not surprising that she had caught a cold. 

The skin all over her body was blazing hot. She got up from the bed with excruciating pain in her head. 

She found some spare pills in her medication box. She took two of them and went back to sleep.

She was uncertain how long she had slept for when someone suddenly poured a pail of cold water on her face. 

Tang Xinyan opened her heavy eyelids slowly. She could not see clearly but she saw two figures standing beside her bed. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

"The sun is about to set and you, Tang Xinyan, are still sleeping. Are you a pig? How can you be so lazy!" Her sister-in-law, Fu Sijing was holding a basin as she gave Tang Xinyan a cold stare.  

Tang Xinyan and Fu Sijing had a good relationship back then, but ever since the senior whom Fu Sijing liked in high school confessed to Tang Xinyan, Fu Sijing blacklisted her and had always thought that she seduced her senior.

As for her mother-in-law, He Meijuan, Tang Xinyan did not even know when she had offended her. No matter what she did, He Meijuan would always think that she was wrong.

He Meijuan jabbed Tang Xinyan's forehead with her finger. She glared at Tang Xinyan with her pair of cold eyes. 

She ignored her pale and wan face and questioned her strictly, "You really are audacious, aren't you? How dare you decline my calls! On the night of your birthday, you didn't return to the mansion or come back here. Where were you? Were you out seducing men again? Tang Xinyan, how can you be so shameless?"

Tang Xinyan's forehead was painful due to He Meijuan's jabbing. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she grabbed He Meijuan's finger and flung her hand away.

He Meijuan had never expected Tang Xinyan to fight back, and that caught her off guard. As she recovered from her shock, she gave Tang Xinyan a slap immediately. Her eyes were shooting daggers at her as she said, "Oh, someone's a grown-up now! How dare you fight back?"

"Tang Xinyan, you uneducated b*tch who has no respect for elders! I will make you pay for touching my mom!" Fu Sijing threw the basin away, raised her hand and was about to slap Tang Xinyan's face.

Tang Xinyan dodged to the side and Fu Sijing missed her target. Just as she was about to attempt another strike, she was slapped by Tang Xinyan.

Tang Xinyan had acted in a few scenes that involved slaps. She was too quick for Fu Sijing to dodge and she received a slap on her face.

Fu Sijing could feel that her face was burning and she was stunned. Her pupils were enlarged and she stared at her. She could not believe that Tang Xinyan would dare to slap her back.

Tang Xinyan was soaked in cold water from her hair until her waist. She wiped the water on her face, and came down from the bed with pride even though her face was wan.

She was wearing a set of light blue casualwear. Her waist-length curly hair was damp and clinging onto her shoulders. Although it looked embarrassing, one could not find any sense of awkwardness on her enchanting countenance mixed with a tinge of disdain.

She looked at the pair of infuriated mother and daughter who wanted to skin her alive. 

The corner of her lips curved upward, and she gave a nonchalant smile. She taunted, "Do the both of you really think that I'm a coward? One who you can spill water on, or beat and scold as you please? For six months, I was willing to endure because I cared about Fu Sichen. 

But now, I have had enough. From now on, Fu Sijing, if your mother ever hits me again, I will return all of them onto your face!"

"Can't bear it anymore?" He Meijuan snapped. "Do you want a divorce?"

Tang Xinyan curled a few strands of her hair with her lean fingers. Without hesitation, she let out a cold mirthless laugh, "Yes, a divorce!"
