That night, Old Master Gu and Bai Ping welcomed Fang Xin heartily. Fang Xin’s divorce inadvertently came up during dinner. Bai Ping felt sorry for her and said, “Men who hit women are animals. Xin, you must not show mercy and get every cent you deserve in the divorce!”

Fang Xin was relieved. She nodded and added, “I have already signed the divorce papers but they have objections to the division of the property, so I plan to hire a lawyer to go through proper legal procedures. The Qin family has ‘sucked blood’ from the Fang family all these years. I want them to pay back every single cent with interest!”

“There’s no need to hire a lawyer. I will ask the Gu family’s legal counsel to come to our house tomorrow. He is the best at this type of civil litigation. I guarantee that we will make that b*stard pay through his nose!”

Bai Ping looked at the old man and said, “Dad, what do you think?”

“Tong is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family. Her sister is naturally a child of the Gu family. Feel free to go to court. The Gu family will support you all the way. Don’t be afraid.”

Fang Xin was touched. “Thank you, Grandpa. Thank you, Auntie.”

“You’re welcome, my dear girl. Eat more. Look at how skinny you are!” Bai Ping put more food into Fang Xin’s bowl.

After dinner, Fang Tong didn’t go back her bedroom with Gu Nancheng. She had discussed with Bai Ping that she would sleep with her sister tonight.

After they showered, the two sisters leaned against the headboard side-by-side and chatted, like how they used to back at Fang’s residence.

“Now I finally understand why you’re willing to stay in the Gu family and take care of Nancheng. Grandpa Gu and Auntie Gu are both kind and reasonable people. They’re willing to help me because they love you. I can finally relax knowing that they treat you so sincerely.”

Fang Tong beamed. “Sister, like I said earlier, they’re good people! They love me like their own granddaughter and daughter.”

“But Tong, what if Gu Nancheng really doesn’t wake up? So many doctors couldn’t do anything about it. Are the words of a metaphysics master believable?”

Fang Tong shook her head. “I don’t know either. I’ll take one step at a time! Even if Gu Nancheng is gone one day, I’ll mourn for him for three years and take good care of Grandpa and Mom, even if just to repay the kindness they have shown me this whole time.”

Fang Xin stroked her sister’s long hair lovingly as she said, “But you’re still so young, and you’d be widowed. What would happen to you then?”

“Sister, let’s not think so far ahead. We’ll talk about the future later! The most important thing now is to win your divorce case. After that, we still have to figure out a way to rebuild Fang Corporation!”

Fang Xin thought for a moment. Now was indeed not the time to concern themselves with love and affection.

“Okay, we sisters will work together to revitalize the Fang family!”

The next day, Bai Ping sent for the Gu Corporation legal counsel, Mr. Luo.

After hearing Fang Xin’s story, Mr. Luo frowned and asked, “Miss Fang, do you know how much the Qin family is worth?”

Fang Xin nodded, took out a file and handed it to the lawyer. “This contain detailed financial statements which showed how the Qin family had siphoned off Fang Corporation over the years, as well as evidence of Qin Jianmin’s transferring our marital assets, and… photos and information about his infidelity. Have a look.”

Not only were Fang Tong and Bai Ping shocked, even Mr. Luo, who was a seasoned divorce lawyer, was shocked. The divorced women he had met before were either crying and blaming their husbands for being heartless, or they knew nothing about their family’s assets, which led to their ex-husbands having the upper hand in their divorces. Fang Xin was the first divorcée-to-be who was so calm and had so much information and evidence.
