At fifty, she remarried into a wealthy family; her ex-husband knelt down and begged for reconciliati

Chapter 153 It’s your own fault

Uncle Liu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. "That's just something you bookworms can use to fool you. Let me tell you, if I wanted to, I could do it even if there were ten of you!"

After parking the car, Xu Hui walked over and slapped Duan Fei on the shoulder. "Old Liu, don't scare him. This kid is all show and no substance. He's actually a coward."

Uncle Liu glanced at Duan Fei's frightened look, burst into laughter, then released him and kicked him. "Go in and get a divorce. We'll be waiting outside. Don't even think about escaping. Remember, when we catch you, it'll be like a cat catching a mouse—we'll have you under our control."

Duan Fei clenched his fists and walked heavily toward Xu Hemei, staring at her with wide eyes, saying each word clearly, "Xu Hemei, they don't understand the law, but don't you either?"

Xu Hemei met his gaze and said, word by word, "And what do you know? What did it mean when you waited for me downstairs in the apartment complex with a scalpel in your hand on the Mid-Autumn Festival the day before yesterday?"

Duan Fei's eyes darted away guiltily. "I drank too much the day before yesterday..."

Xu Hemei clenched her fists, wanting to slap him again, but she couldn't help herself. Too lazy to argue with him anymore, she said, "It's almost our turn, let's go."

These things can be discussed later; the most important thing right now is to get a divorce.

Duan Fei stared at her, his expression hesitant, and remained motionless for a long time.

He doesn't want to divorce yet.

Seeing that he hadn't followed, Xu Hemei turned around, her brows furrowed. "Duan Fei, what are you still standing there for?"

Seeing this, Uncle Liu roared, "Get moving! If you dawdle any longer, believe me, I'll kick you into the street!"

Duan Fei clenched his fists so tightly they cracked. "Xu Hemei, what you're doing is illegal."

Xu Hemei crossed her arms, her imposing manner equally assertive. "Duan Fei, they are my elders, I can't control them. All I know is that if you don't complete the divorce proceedings with me today, you can imagine the consequences."

She was already annoyed because she hadn't slept well, and seeing him dragging his feet like this only made her more irritated. She said, "Since you're not in a hurry, then wait for me to file for divorce. Anyway, I'm determined to get a divorce. Whether I divorce now or I file for divorce, it's still a divorce. Think about it yourself."

After saying that, she lifted her foot to leave. Seeing that they seemed to have not reached an agreement, Uncle Liu quickly walked up and kicked Duan Fei in the waist.

"Damn it, I've never seen a man as effeminate as you. I'm getting fed up with waiting. Today, can you just get a divorce or not?"

Duan Fei was kicked so hard he almost fell to the ground. He raised his hand to protect his waist, his hair practically standing on end with rage. He pointed at Uncle Liu and roared, "Believe it or not, I'll call the police!"

Uncle Liu has a short temper. He stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar like a chick, lifted him up, opened the glass door of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and threw him inside.

Ignoring whether he would fall flat on his face, she turned around and called to Xu Hemei, "Goddaughter, go, hurry up, get a divorce."

This action made both Xu Hemei and Xu Hui burst into laughter.

Xu Hemei responded with an "Yes," and then carried her bag into the Civil Affairs Bureau lobby.

Just then, their number was called.

Xu Hemei pulled Duan Fei to sit by the window.

"Are you here to complete the cooling-off period or to finalize your divorce?" the staff member asked.

Xu Hemei took out her ID and receipt from her bag, but Duan Fei sat there with a displeased expression, not saying a word.

"Sir?" The staff member looked at Duan Fei.

Duan Fei glanced at Xu Hemei, his eyes filled with resentment as if he were the woman.

"Sir, you don't want to get a divorce yet, right?" the staff member asked.

Xu Hemei quickly said, "If he doesn't want to get a divorce, he won't come."

After saying that, he stepped on Duan Fei's foot. "Duan Fei, what's the point of a grown man dawdling like this?"

A staff member interjected, "Sir and Madam, if you don't want to proceed now, you can postpone it to the next thirty days. After thirty days, once you've decided, you can come back to proceed, or cancel the application..."

Xu Hemei frowned, unable to control her emotions any longer, and cursed, "What kind of stupid rule is this? Do it now! Haven't you figured out why we're here? Are you just wasting our time going through the motions? Do it for us now!"

The staff member looked embarrassed. "Where are this gentleman's identification documents...?"

Seeing that Duan Fei remained unmoved, Xu Hemei's temper flared up again. She really wanted to slap him again to bring him to his senses.

But she still resisted the urge to hit him, and warned, "Duan Fei, if you don't leave, don't even think about leaving this place today. My Uncle Liu has been to jail before, he's not afraid of anything."

Duan Fei recalled the two kicks he had just received and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. He really hadn't expected that Xu Hemei, who looked so ordinary, had so many powerful backers.

And then there was that last live stream, such a huge farce, with a massive impact. Logically, the platform should have taken her down and banned her, but she actually broadcast it all the way through...

As the two remained at an impasse, the staff member was about to speak up and tell them to go downstairs and discuss the matter before returning, so as not to delay the processing of the people behind them...

Before he could finish speaking, Duan Fei reluctantly pulled out his ID from his pocket and slammed it on the table with a "bang." "Xu Hemei, you'll get your comeuppance."

Xu Hemei smiled as she watched the staff pick up the documents. "I've already been punished. After I married you, I was driven crazy by you and your mother. Now you're the one who should be punished, while my tribulations are over. From now on, every day will be a good day."

These words seemed to strike a chord with Duan Fei, because he was indeed having a very difficult time right now.

While the staff were processing her paperwork, she continued, "Duan Fei, you brought this upon yourself. I gave you a chance to repay the money for the renovations, but you and your mother refused. Why should my dowry end up in your hands and your next partner's? As for losing your job, it's because you lacked self-awareness and insisted on provoking Song Wan, trying to climb the social ladder. Even if she lets the director's daughter get away with it, the director won't let you off the hook!"

Duan Fei was having a bad day and couldn't stand these words. Enraged, he stood up, swept everything off the table, and yelled at her, "Stop talking! Stop talking!"

Despite his breakdown, Xu Hemei remained calm and her eyes were firm.

The staff member processing the certificates seemed used to this kind of thing, not even glancing at them, and just focusing on doing their work.

Once they had both calmed down, the formalities were completed.

The staff handed them their identification documents and said, "Please keep your documents safe."

Xu Hemei saw the divorce certificate in front of her and breathed a heavy sigh of relief. She felt the air was sweeter. She put away the certificate and said to the stunned Duan Fei, "Never see you again."

After saying that, she walked out of the hall.

at the same time.

He Qiaoyun, who was busy in the orchard, suddenly received a call from Wu Man.

She hesitated before answering, "Hello?"

On the other end of the phone, Wu Man cursed, "He Qiaoyun, your ex-husband, along with a big, burly man, suddenly broke into my house and took my son away!"

He Qiaoyun suddenly remembered that today was the day her daughter and Duan Fei were going through divorce proceedings. She hadn't expected that Xu Hui, her father, would still be somewhat useful.

She said indifferently, "Oh, and then?"

Wu Man shouted, "What? And then? My son was taken away by your ex-husband? Let me tell you, if anything happens to my son..."

He Qiaoyun interrupted, "I'm divorced from him. Go find him. What does it have to do with me? Besides, although my ex-husband is a bit of a scoundrel, he still has some principles. Your son must have done something wrong to send him to arrest you."

"Alright, you should reflect on your actions. I'm busy, I'm hanging up now."
