Under Tang Shaofeng's coercion, Xiao Hui did not go and cause trouble at the Xia family, but she did not give up on the idea of breaking up the marriage. From the start, she had never accepted Xia Wan as her daughter-in-law.
Thus, when Tang Shaofeng was not paying attention, she still secretly went to the Xia family.
After understanding Xiao Hui's personality, Tang Shaofeng was neither impatient nor anxious. In any case, that agreement was not counted, even if Xia Wan signed it, it would not have any legal effects.
Because, prior to that, the contract that Xia Wan had signed with him, had yet to be completed.
That's why, as long as he did not let go, Xia Wan would not be able to escape from him.
Sitting in the living room, Tang Shaofeng frowned, hesitating as to whether or not he should go to the Xia Family household and bring Xiao Hui back.
He had guessed how Xiao Hui would insult him, but Tang Shaofeng's remaining self-esteem caused him to be unable to move a single inch.
Giving up on trying to stop Xiao Hui, Tang Shaofeng frowned. He wanted to see if Xia Wan would sign the agreement.
After arriving at the Xia Clan's residence, Xiao Hui rushed in arrogantly, but when she realized that Xia Wan was not there, she angrily raised her brows and asked in a stern voice: "Where's Xia Wan?"
Grandma Xia did not know Xiao Hui, so she asked while laughing dryly: "Madam, you are …?"
Snorting coldly, Xiao Hui's eyes were filled with contempt, "I am Tang Shaofeng's mother! You must be Xia Wan's elder right? How did you guys educate Xia Wan! "
Grandma Xia lowered her eyes in shame, but she was unwilling to ignore her, so she comforted her: "My dear mother, take a seat first. Xia Wan is upstairs, I'll go call her down."
"Who's related to you!?" Our Shaofeng thought highly of her, and married her off to another family. But she … she caused my son to lose all face! "
He knew that he was in the wrong. Even if Xiao Hui's words were malicious, Grandma Xia could only swallow her anger and bear with it, "My butler is the one who is unreasonable.
Waving his hand, Xiao Hui's attitude became even more arrogant, "I can't calm down! Hurry and have Xia Wan come out to see me, I have something important to talk to her about! "
Grandma Xia had no choice but to give the servant a meaningful look, and got the servant to call Xia Wan down.
Ever since he returned to the Xia Clan last night, Xia Wan locked herself in her room. There were several times when Grandma Xia wanted to talk to her, but he was defeated by her silent attitude.
Seeing Xiao Hui coming to find her to humiliate her, Xia Xue and Fang Lan looked at each other, undisguised smiles appearing on her face, as if she was watching a good show.
Amongst all the relatives, the only one who was worried about Xia Wan's current situation was only the Grandma Xia.
"Um, my dear mother, what business do you have with Xia Wan?" Frowning, Grandma Xia's laughter was forced. Judging from Xiao Hui's aggressive attitude, she had already predicted that the other party would not come with good intentions.
Glancing contemptuously at the Grandma Xia, Xiao Hui answered confidently: "What else could it be? End this ridiculous marriage for my son, Xia Wan is unworthy to be my daughter-in-law! "
Although Xia Wan was wrong, she was human nature's protector, so she asked the Grandma Xia to protect Xia Wan and said: "My dear mother, don't blame me for speaking too much, was it Shaofeng who let you come?"
When he mentioned Tang Shaofeng, Xiao Hui's eyeballs floated to the side, as if she was lacking in confidence, "Don't care about that, my son is not going to continue living with this kind of woman!"
Seeing that Xiao Hui was guilty, Grandma Xia decided not to bother with her and waited for Xia Wan to go downstairs.
Seeing that Xia Wan was still not coming out, Xiao Hui's patience had run out, she got up and shouted: "Xia Wan! What are you dawdling for! Wait for Shaofeng to protect you? Don't be naive! He won't come! "
Just as Xiao Hui finished speaking, the door to Xia Wan's bedroom was finally opened.
Exhausted, she walked down the stairs with empty eyes.
When he saw Xia Wan, Xiao Hui's anger rose. Thinking that Xia Wan was secretly cheating behind Tang Shaofeng's back, but her own son was still so indulgent, Xiao Hui could not hold back and slapped Xia Wan hard.
The clear and melodious sound reverberated around the large living room. Grandma Xia was startled, then she quickly blocked Xia Wan, "My dear mother, if you have something to say, say it well, don't be too harsh."
Seeing that Xia Wan was beaten up, Xia Xue was overjoyed. Fang Lan also seemed like she was watching a joke, the mother and daughter did not leave the living room, and did not speak up for the Xia family, watching on with interest.
Xia Wan's reaction was still normal. Her crooked head did not straighten, as if she was a sculpture that could not think at all.
After being stopped by the Grandma Xia, Xiao Hui looked coldly at Xia Wan, and impatiently took out the divorce agreement that she had prepared for her.
"Here!" I have nothing more to say to you. Sign it, and divorce my son! " After passing the agreement to Xia Wan, Xiao Hui looked disgusted, as if looking at Xia Wan for a second more would be too much of a stain.
Seeing that Xiao Hui had even taken out the divorce agreement, Grandma Xia's face became anxious and tried to persuade her, "My dear mother, can the children settle their own matters by themselves? If it was Shaofeng, I would definitely not have stopped him. But isn't it a little disrespectful of you to make such a decision? "
Hearing Grandma Xia's words, Xiao Hui laughed with ridicule.
The neurotic her, after restraining her smile, fiercely questioned: "I don't respect my son? Old lady, are you sure you're not mistaken? Your granddaughter is cheating with another man behind my back, and you still have the nerve to protect her? "
"My dear mother, I am not protecting Xia Wan, I am just discussing the matter. After all, this is a matter between the two of them, so it is up to them to decide for themselves."
Xiao Hui glared at Grandma Xia fiercely. Her gaze was extremely bored, and her tone was even more harsh, "Old granny, don't take advantage of your age! To be able to teach someone like Xia Wan, your Xia Clan does not have any good people! I clearly remember how much money you demanded from my son! To put it bluntly, your Xia Wan is the goods my son bought! Now, I want to return the goods, what qualifications do you have to say no! "
Although Xia Wan was at fault, no matter how good-natured a person was, they would not allow their close ones to be humiliated in such a manner.
As a result, Grandma Xia was so angry that her entire body was trembling, the wrinkles on her face also became distorted, "My dear mother, how can you say that?"
"Grandmother!" Xia Wan suddenly spoke out, and after interrupting the Grandma Xia, she signed her name without hesitation.
Seeing Xia Wan being so impulsive, Grandma Xia's Qi and blood surged, her vision turning black, almost fainting.
Xia Wan immediately supported Grandma Xia, but she, who had tears in her eyes, was unwilling to explain anything.
perhaps it was because he did not want Grandma Xia to be humiliated by Xiao Hui again because of her, or perhaps it was because he mistakenly believed that Xiao Hui's arrival was under Tang Shaofeng's orders.
Moreover, if Tang Shaofeng was not willing to believe her and not forgive her, then there was really no need to continue this kind of marriage that only existed in name.
Receiving the agreement that Xia Wan had signed, Xiao Hui did not linger at all, and left the Xia family feeling refreshed.
Even though he didn't understand why Xia Wan was willing to let go, the moment she saw Xia Wan sign the contract, Xia Xue was both excited and agitated. It was as if she was seeing an opportunity to become the next Mrs. Tang.
"Little Wan, what exactly is the matter with the photo on the news? Can't you tell Grandma about the situation with Shaofeng?"
Seeing Grandma Xia's pained expression, Xia Wan frowned and only said half-heartedly: "Grandma, I'm tired. I'll go upstairs to rest first."
Returning back to his bedroom alone, Xia Wan locked the door and silently cried while covering herself with a blanket.
No matter how strong she was, how stubborn she was, there would always be a fragile side to her. Moreover, what she had just given up was already regarded as the happiest existence in her life …
When he returned home, Xiao Hui directly told Tang Shaofeng everything she had and brought out the divorce agreement that Xia Wan had signed and placed it in front of her.
Seeing the crooked Xia Wan's name on the contract, Tang Shaofeng's expression turned cold and cold, his eyes filled with endless misery.
Immediately after, when Xiao Hui thought that she could finally distance Tang Shaofeng from Xia Wan, Tang Shaofeng grabbed onto the agreement, and tore the paper into pieces, then casually waved her hand.
Looking at the pieces of paper that fell from the top, Xiao Hui was enraged, her face flushed red, "Shaofeng! Why do you have to suffer! I'll help you, but what are you doing now! Do you like to abuse yourself so much? Do you like to embarrass yourself so much?! That woman cheated! Do you understand the meaning of cheating! "
It was really impossible to understand what Tang Shaofeng was thinking. Xiao Hui's face was dejected and defeated, after she finished shouting, all the strength in her body seemed to have been sucked out, and she sat down on the sofa.
Ignoring the sighing Xiao Hui, who was covering his face, Tang Shaofeng left the hall sinisterly.
He entered the bedroom and closed the door. Suddenly, he hit the wall with a heavy punch, but he didn't even frown. It was as if he had lost all sense of pain and his entire body was numb.
Xia Wan, are you that impatient to get rid of me?
At 6 o'clock in the evening, the Xia family gathered at the dining table. Xia Xue and Fang Lan had a good appetite, and the Grandma Xia tasted the same as chewing on wax.
Su Yun slowly turned his head and looked upstairs. Grandma Xia ordered weakly: "Bring the food up to your sister later. How can you not eat?"
Hearing that, Xia Xue had a face full of unhappiness, but after considering the fact that Xia Wan had finally done something that made her happy today, she responded neither cold nor hot.
The doorbell suddenly rang, and a man in a suit appeared in front of Grandma Xia.
"Are you the old mistress of the Xia family?"
A confused look appeared in Grandma Xia's eyes as she nodded her head and asked: "You are?"
Smiling, the lawyer replied politely: "Hello, I am President Tang's personal lawyer. Regarding the agreement that Miss Xia Wan signed this afternoon, there is no legal effect. As for the reason, Miss Xia understands it himself. "
Grandma Xia was overjoyed, but she was confused, "Then what is your purpose in coming?"
"President Tang does not agree to a divorce. Please inform Miss Xia Wan. Also, even if we are to temporarily separate, I hope that Miss Xia Wan will remember that she is Lady Tang, and that she will take care of her duty. "
Then, the lawyer left the Xia family under Grandma Xia's confused gaze.
But no matter what, Xia Wan was not abandoned, which made Grandma Xia's face look much better.
However, while the Grandma Xia was happy, Xia Xue was so angry that her teeth were itching.
With a clang, she put down her bowl and chopsticks. With bloodshot eyes, she gritted her teeth in hatred. "What a shameless slut! What was there that was worthy for him to linger around for! Is Tang Shaofeng insane! "
Xia Wan who was upstairs could hear everything that was happening downstairs clearly.
When Xia Xue was scolding her, she was actually wondering why she had done this.
