Chapter 306 Walking Away with Ease
Song Wanxing screamed, "No, Zhao Xiaojuan, you can't be so heartless! I admit my mistake, okay? I was wrong, I shouldn't have abandoned you all. Please forgive me just this once, okay? From now on, whatever you say goes, and I will definitely live a good life with you."
Seeing that Zhao Xiaojuan remained unmoved, Song Wanxing then instructed the children: "Song Mingcheng, Song Yali, you two quickly persuade your mother. If we get divorced, you won't have a father anymore, and people will laugh at you."
“We support Mom’s divorce. Ha, we’ve never been used to having a dad. Why don’t you just leave gracefully? We siblings are fine with Mom!” Song Mingcheng shrugged indifferently.
"You, you little brat, I'll beat you to death!" Song Wanxing raised his hand in anger, but hesitated to bring it down.
Song Mingli shoved him away violently, causing Song Wanxing to stumble and nearly fall. "You bastard, I'm your father! How dare you lay a hand on me?" he cursed, but dared not approach again.
“My father? My father eloped with someone a long time ago. Do you still think I’m a two-year-old child who you can just grab by the collar and shake off?” Song Mingli approached him with bloodshot eyes. “Are you our father? Have you ever even looked at the three of us siblings properly? Have you ever hugged us? What have you ever done for us?”
"Do you remember how old the three of us siblings were when you were out fooling around? Your eldest son was only four years old, and Yali wasn't even a year old. Do you know that abandoning your wife and children during the breastfeeding period and fooling around is illegal? What's more, you've been on the run for so many years, and your behavior is so egregious. If we report you, you'll be administratively detained." Song Mingli aspired to be a judge and enjoyed reading books on the subject.
That year, he went to court with his mother and brother. The moment his mother received the divorce certificate, he looked at the emblem of the People's Court, which shone with fairness and justice. It was dazzling and its brilliant light flashed into his heart. He wanted to become such an envoy, to help the weak and uphold justice.
"No...no, you're talking nonsense, I didn't commit a crime, I didn't, I didn't, don't report it, don't arrest me..." Song Wanxing panicked when he heard about reporting it and hurriedly ran out.
He had been eating and drinking well these past few days, and thought he could make a fortune. He was so pleased with himself that he forgot he was still a 'suspect'.
"Dad, he... he couldn't have really done something wrong, could he? Have you found out anything these past few days?" Mingfu was more worried than anyone else about Song Wanxing's departure.
Song Wanli had been subtly probing him these past few days, but hadn't asked what he'd gone to. He said uncertainly, "He said he's been working for someone else, watching over a warehouse, and hasn't made any money. I don't think he'll commit any serious crime, right?"
Song Mingcheng said, "Third Brother, he's so timid and cowardly. If he says he's guarding the warehouse, he might just be stealing something. As long as it's not a criminal offense and there's no record of it, it's fine."
"Are you sure? Or..." Song Mingfu hooked his arm around Song Mingcheng and they went out the door, with Song Yali quietly following behind.
"Third Brother, are you sure you want to do this? No matter what, he's an elder. We can just scare him a little. You have to learn from me and control yourself."
"I'm at my wit's end. My dad won't tell me anything. What? You can't bring yourself to do it? No need for you, I'll do it."
"No, Grandma is still here, we..."
"Third brother, fourth brother, take me with you!"
"Ah! Yali, keep your voice down, you scared me to death! Don't get involved, a girl shouldn't be so violent, she'll never get married."
"What's wrong with girls? There are plenty of amazing women out there." Song Yali still remembered the female scientists that Song Yanchu had told her about. Later, she went to the library and read a lot of books herself, firmly believing in gender equality and that both men and women could achieve great things.
"Hmph! Third brother, I hate you. I'm never talking to you again, and I'm not helping you with your homework anymore."
"Shh! Shh! Ancestor, keep your voice down."
"Hmph! No way, I'm going to tell your uncle and your teacher!"
Song Mingfu was not afraid of anything except his little sister. "No, my dear sister, you're the best. How about this... when we're on our mission, you'll be in charge of watching over my dad and the others, and keeping watch, okay?"
"Hmm... okay, when should we make our move?"
"Why are you more anxious than me? Let me think... let me think, where could he go if he ran out? It would be better if we could stop him outside and deal with him."
"Hmm, hmm, I also think it's better to do it outside. We can do it like this... like this." The eldest and second eldest brothers went to school. Among the three siblings, Song Mingcheng had the most tricks up his sleeve, and he especially liked reading detective novels and the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
Seeing that the children were not around, Zhao Xiaojuan felt it was time to clear things up: "Brother, things have come to this point, so I won't hide anything anymore. I didn't want to hurt Grandma Yali's feelings, but..." Zhao Xiaojuan took a deep breath and continued, "Brother, sister-in-law, I want to leave here."
