Chapter 2135: Chapter 2136: The Original Wife Left with Nothing 55
The crowd looked at Zhang Yu’s aura, then at the useless Han Xue. There was only one thought in their minds: with such a formidable wife, how could Lin Yu abandon her?
Aside from being a member of the Han Family, Han Xue really had no merits. No brains, nothing to offer—it could be said that even if she had a significant dowry, many families equal to or slightly lesser than the Han Family wouldn’t choose Han Xue.
Truly there was fear that after getting married, she would turn the husband’s family upside down.
Listening to Zhang Yu’s words, Lin Yu’s face reddened. It was one thing to be scolded by Han Xue, but even Zhang Yu was giving him no respect, "Zhang Yu, is it necessary for you to talk about me like this in front of my son?"
After all, he was a father. How would his son feel seeing him in such an embarrassing state?
Ha ha ha, Zhang Yu was speechless, "When we came in, your wife had already scolded you worse than a dog. Did you think you still had any dignity then?"
"Enjoy your wealthy family life." Pause. "The life of a wealthy family’s husband."
"You didn’t get the IPO, but that’s okay. Snagging a few small deals is still proof of your ability." Zhang Yu looked at Xie Zhen, who stood quietly on the side, sighed inwardly. Clearly she was just there to watch the drama unfold, but now had to personally step in for a show.
"Can we go inside now?" Zhang Yu smiled at Xie Zhen.
Caught by the girl, Xie Zhen showed a slightly embarrassed expression, pinched his nose, and said a box number, "You go in first."
Zhang Yu had fiercely rebuked Lin Yu, but he hadn’t spoken out yet. He must let Han Xue know the consequences of offending him.
Well then, Xie Zhen was going to lose his temper and scold Han Xue and the others. Such wealthy family fights are something small figures like her cannot witness, better to back away quickly.
Xie Zhen glanced at the crowd, "If you lose, lose with grace. Has Mr. Han never taught you this, Han Xue?"
"Of course not, since you’re not the eldest son’s descendant, Mr. Han probably wouldn’t personally guide you."
"Especially when Mr. Han publicly commented, saying Han Xue is just a useless child, proficient in eating, drinking, and playing, but lacking intelligence."
"Han Xue, if I were you, I’d treat Lin Yu better. After all, even whether you can formally take charge of the Han Family depends on Lin Yu, whom you just scolded in various ways."
"A person with no brains can still become the head of the Han Family, truly a downfall." After mocking Han Xue, Xie Zhen didn’t forget to take a dig at the Han Family.
Those who hung out behind Han Xue were all from families less powerful than the Han Family, hoping to catch some crumbs from the Han Family to benefit their own small families.
Most of the time, they could prance about vigorously, but the moment they faced a somewhat established wealthy family, they instantly became timid.
In front of them, Xie Zhen mercilessly stripped Han Xue of her dignity and trampled on the Han Family, leaving the hangers-on speechless.
Even though they spent their days eating, drinking, and playing, they knew Xie Zhen was lately quite a prominent figure, a recent mover and shaker. These small individuals wisely stayed quiet on the side.
After Xie Zhen went inside, Han Xue fiercely glared at the crowd, "That guy Xie Zhen spoke to me like that just now, why aren’t you saying anything? All turned mute?"
"Weren’t you chatting away well before? Why do you stop talking when you face Xie Zhen?" Han Xue was truly unhappy.
The crowd looked at Han Xue, acting as crazy as ever, and pursed their lips inwardly. How could they be blamed for not speaking up when she, the one involved, heard Xie Zhen’s insults and did not say a word?
After Xie Zhen left, she came out demanding why nobody helped her.
Though the crowd felt a great deal of dissatisfaction, they dared not speak out. They inwardly agreed; Han Xue truly lacked intelligence, even Mr. Han said so.
Watching the crowd bow their heads, Han Xue was at the peak of irritation. Damn Xie Zhen dared to call her brainless, she wanted to refute it, but Xie Zhen’s words were quoted from Mr. Han.
What angered her more was, Xie Zhen purposely highlighted she was only the interim head. Damn bastard, why insist on repeatedly mentioning things she didn’t want to hear in front of everyone?
What upset her even further was, the idiots that were just flattering her now dared to hide and mock her.
Han Xue was genuinely livid now, "Get out, all of you get out." She didn’t want to see them; seeing them made her angry.
Upon hearing this, the crowd quickly scattered and left, fearing that they might face Han Xue’s resentment. They had wanted to run earlier but were afraid of her holding a grudge.
As they reached the cars, one person suddenly muttered, "Even if we leave, won’t Han Xue still be angry?"
Those who were just glad to have escaped without facing Han Xue’s wrath were startled, "Alright, never mind, she’ll still resent us if we go back."
Having followed Han Xue for a while, they truly understood her well. Since going back wouldn’t bring any reprieve, why bother returning?
Han Xue didn’t expect that a habitually uttered ’get out’ led to these people leaving so swiftly, leaving her stunned. Yet her pride kept her from calling them back.
Trying to suppress her unreleased anger, she looked at Lin Yu standing quietly by, "Are you a man or not, standing by as your wife gets scolded by others, and you say nothing?"
Han Xue felt unhappy thinking about it, scolding while hitting and kicking at Lin Yu.
With his previous temperament, even if Lin Yu felt annoyed inside, he couldn’t resist, considering he’d endured so long. He wouldn’t ruin everything now.
But recalling Zhang Yu’s earlier words and his son Zi Xuan’s gaze at them, he truly couldn’t stand it.
He directly avoided Han Xue, "How do you expect me to speak up, how?"
"You just scolded me this way; do you think I can hold any status before Xie Zhen?"
"In your heart, you treat me as a nobody. Didn’t you call me an idiot? Fine, I’m done caring."
"You play by yourself." Lin Yu turned and walked away. He realized that constantly lowering himself before Han Xue and the Han Family had only earned their contempt and disrespect.
Clearly, a bunch of idiots, they only have good luck being born into the Han Family, otherwise, who knows how destitute they’d be.
If he wanted to use the Han Family’s influence, he needed respect from others. He was definitely not the husband everyone talked about. Even if he was a husband, he’d be the strongest, not a wimpy fool easily stepped on.
After finishing these words, he turned abruptly and left, not caring about Han Xue’s subsequent reaction.
Han Xue never imagined Lin Yu would resist. In her heart, this guy was a super loyal flunky; he’d never leave.
As long as the Han Family stood, he wouldn’t go. Yet he truly left; what was happening, how could this be?
Feeling lost, Han Xue wondered how things turned out this way. Everything seemed perfectly under control earlier.
