Chapter 1416: Chapter 1006: Full-Time Mother’s Counterattack 14 (Four Thousand)
She’d originally planned to use the bone marrow donation to keep him in check; now that she couldn’t threaten him with that, she could only switch to this method. Either way, getting her son’s surname changed was a done deal.
Wen Qiang had always had a macho streak, and now, hearing her threaten him like that, his anger was instantly ignited: "You think I’d be scared of you?"
"If you dare sue me, I’ll sue you for defamation! I’ll sue you till you lose everything! I don’t care what it takes!"
Qi Qi looked completely unconcerned. "Then go ahead and sue. I don’t have any money anyway. Worst case, we go down together. As long as I achieve my goal, what damage can the aftermath really do to me? Other than paying compensation, what, are they going to throw me in jail? The kid is still so little—who do you think that would hurt the most? The one who’ll be disgraced isn’t me, it’s you. Both of your ex-wives have fallen out with you, Wen Qiang, you’re really something. Once your business collapses and you can’t get any women, you can look forward to being single for life!"
After saying her piece, Qi Qi didn’t want to waste even one more second.
"If I don’t get your answer before midnight tonight, you’ll see yourself blowing up all over the internet by dawn."
Call it kicking a man when he’s down, call it ruthless and vicious—either way, this was the ending this damned man deserved.
Thinking it through, all she was asking for was a surname change. She wasn’t asking for his money, and she wasn’t asking for his life. If he had any sense, he should know what to do.
Wen Qiang hadn’t expected Qi Qi to change so completely. He wanted to say she wasn’t Qi Qi, but with that face, who else could she be?
Could a divorce really let a woman be reborn? Ignite a whole new life force? Otherwise how could she have changed this much? It was unbelievable.
The old her was timid and soft, a lump of dough who let him knead her however he wanted, not even knowing how to resist, easier to handle than a Japanese woman. But now?
Now she was a hedgehog; anyone who went up against her, she’d stab.
All of a sudden Wen Qiang had the feeling of lifting a rock only to smash his own foot. The reality of it was just so damn unpleasant.
There was no need to wait till night. In fact, the moment she said those words, he already knew this son was as good as gone. He was never getting him back. Their relationship was completely, irrevocably severed.
So before Qi Qi could even walk out of the café, he called after her: "I’ll agree to it, okay?"
Qi Qi stopped, her back still to him, not a trace of Gao Xing on her face. Instead, she felt utterly done with this man. She didn’t even bother to turn her head.
"I’ll take leave and go back home tomorrow. I hope you keep your word and don’t let me down. You only get this one chance. Miss it, and you’ll regret it for the rest of your life."
Leaving the café, she went straight to the company to find Li Xingchen. "I need to go home for a couple of days. Can I trouble you to look after Xiao Han for me?"
Li Xingchen raised an eyebrow. "Go home?"
"That creature known as the ex-husband tracked me down, and there are some things I need to cut off completely. Don’t worry, two days at most. If things go smoothly, I might even be back tomorrow night."
Li Xingchen nodded. "Okay. Then go home, pack his things for him, and make sure you calm him down emotionally."
"Don’t worry, Xiao Han is very well-behaved."
That afternoon, when she picked Wen Han up and took him home, she clearly explained when she’d be leaving and about when she’d be back. If she was late, he was to behave and listen to Uncle Li. It was his first time separating from Mom, so the little guy was a bit nervous and scared, but he still very sensibly agreed. He even hooked pinkies with Mom and made her promise to call him on time.
The next morning, she dropped the kid off at school and rushed to the airport. The 10 a.m. flight would get her to their province by noon. Then a two-hour train ride and a one-hour bus ride would take her to their town. When she arrived and called Wen Qiang, she found out he was on a high-speed train and still an hour away. By the time he got from the capital back home, the Police Station would probably be off duty.
"Eight o’clock tomorrow morning. See you at the Police Station gate."
She was back at her doorstep, but Qi Qi had no intention of going home. That "home" was the last place she wanted to be. She didn’t even bother to find a hotel, and settled directly into her space instead. The space had everything; her old bed was still there, she could even boil water for a bath. Why waste that money for nothing?
Along the way, she’d been filming video, including the next morning while she was waiting at the Police Station gate. Luckily, the man was looking properly cowed—he didn’t dare bet his whole future on this. After all, she’d nailed it with that one line: a concubine can be replaced, a son can be made again, but if he tore his face open with this woman here, wouldn’t he end up with nothing at all in the second half of his life?
