Chapter 348 Letter of Divorce
Chapter 348 Letter of Divorce
"Don't worry, we'll take down Kuangshi's seventy or eighty men in two days." Lin Hui was very confident, clearly having a thorough understanding of the other party.
"Lin Hui, you were a secret guard before?"
"Lin Hui, leader of the Hidden Dragon Guard, pays his respects to the young lady." After a moment of surprise, Lin Hui knelt down on one knee.
Yun Yi was surprised. The Hidden Dragon Guard? It was said to have been created by the Emperor Gaozu, specifically to protect the Crown Prince in secret. However, in the end, they still had to listen to the Emperor. The Crown Prince was officially dead, so how could there be a Hidden Dragon Guard here?
Lin Hui didn't explain, because he couldn't. He couldn't very well say that he and his brothers thought the emperor was heartless and didn't want to work for that old man, could he?
"Who else is a member of the Hidden Dragon Guard? Old Chu? Luo Yu?"
"Yes."
Yun Yi laughed. Zhou Jinghan was leading people like this to be thugs in Black City. Wasn't that overwhelming? No wonder he became famous in such a short time.
And unsurprisingly, these people never gave it their all at any time.
If they really showed their true abilities, those three alone could take down the entire city.
Since that's the case, she decided not to interfere any further, since anything produced by the royal family is always of the highest quality.
As for Guo Yajing, she led Tian Yuzhi and Xiao Pingting, mother and daughter, to the courtyard of the fourth house. Without saying a word, she directly took out the divorce papers and the letter of separation: "Where is Xiao Mufeng? Let's see which one is more suitable to sign."
"Guo Yajing, what do you mean?" Madam Xiao Mo immediately bristled. "Are you people from the eldest branch of the family trying to control people from the fourth branch?"
"Can't I interfere?" Guo Yajing looked over coldly. "As the eldest grandson of the eldest branch of the family, and the destined matriarch of the Xiao family, can't I interfere?"
"you……"
"Yuzhi, where have you been? Why do you suddenly want a divorce?" Xiao Mufeng stepped forward and took Tian Yuzhi's hand. "We..."
"Xiao Mufeng, let's get a divorce." Tian Yuzhi pointed to the divorce papers. "Let's part amicably. I want Pingting."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Mufeng frowned.
"Don't you understand what I mean?" Tian Yuzhi sneered. "Considering that I saved your whole family on the way here, I don't want any gratitude. I just want you to set me free."
"No, you...you're a woman who's had a child, and you're not clean. Where can you go after a divorce? Who would want you? You..."
"Shut up!" Tian Yuzhi suddenly interrupted Xiao Mufeng sharply. She hadn't wanted to cry, but looking at the man beside her who was now a complete stranger, she couldn't hold back her tears. "Anyone has the right to criticize me, except you. If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, I..."
Xiao Mufeng knew he had said the wrong thing, but he couldn't take it back now that he had already said it. He was just panicking: "Yuzhi, let's not talk about the past. Come back, let's live a good life together. I will treat you well from now on."
“Xiao Mufeng, do you believe that? Just three hours ago, you sent me to Bangzi Hutong. If it weren’t for that… I’d probably be dead by now.” Tian Yuzhi took a deep breath and glanced at the members of the Fourth Branch of the family. “I don’t owe you anything. I want my freedom now.”
"What freedom do you, a used woman, want?" Xiao Mo suddenly snapped. "Have you really gone too far? Do you really think the main branch of the family would want a used woman like you?"
"You're not allowed to talk about my mother like that!" Xiao Pingting cried out.
"Get out of here, you worthless piece of trash." Madam Xiao Mo walked over and slapped Tian Yuzhi. "It's all your fault, you slut! You've corrupted your granddaughter! How dare you even ask for a divorce? Who did you cheat on this time?"
Tian Yuzhi was numb; this kind of life was worse than death. She had closed her eyes to accept the slap, but it didn't come. When she opened her eyes, she found that Guo Yajing was holding Xiao Moshi's wrist.
"Fourth Grandfather, are you just going to let her insult her daughter-in-law and granddaughter like this?" Guo Yajing hadn't had much contact with the fourth branch of the family before, but they did have some interactions. Her impression of this fourth grandfather was that he didn't talk much, but she never expected him to be so vicious.
"This is a matter for our fourth branch of the family. Even if you are the matriarch of the Xiao family, does the Xiao family still exist today?" Xiao Taishun stood up. "In this dog-eat-dog world, what does status mean?"
Guo Yajing frowned.
"Go back. Let's resolve our family matters behind closed doors."
Guo Yajing chuckled, "If that's the case, then it's easy to handle." She glanced at the stone as she spoke.
Shi Tou chuckled, "Although this is your family matter, in Black City, the Fengyun Gang calls the shots. Our gang leader loves helping others, so since you don't like the divorce papers, then let's just have the divorce papers." With that, he grabbed Xiao Mufeng, pressed his hand down, cut his finger, and pressed his fingerprint onto the divorce papers. Then he pushed him away, saying, "It's done."
The four families were stunned. Was this a robber?
Tian Yuzhi looked at the letter of divorce in her hand, a little confused. That's it?
“Tian Yuzhi has already divorced Xiao Mufeng, so from now on, she and her daughter have nothing to do with you.” Guo Yajing was also stunned for a moment, thinking to herself that the girl really did things in ways that were… unpredictable.
"You..." Xiao Mufeng looked at the blood on his finger and rushed forward to snatch it, "You've gone too far."
However, how could a scholar like him possibly defeat Shi Tou and his men? He was kicked away before he could even get close.
“Xiao Mufeng, I despise cowardly men the most. If it weren’t for the gang leader saying that no one can die, you would have been reincarnated tonight.” Shi Tou knew Xiao Mufeng’s behavior and found it extremely despicable. Many families came to be exiled, but this was the first time he had ever heard of someone making their wife serve the escorts in order to make the journey easier.
And afterwards he even complained about and tormented his wife.
You beast, you're just wasting air by living. It's okay if you don't kill him, we'll teach him a lesson later.
"And this too." Guo Yajing took out the family genealogy. "Grandfather sent this to us. From this moment on, the fourth branch of your family is expelled from the Xiao family."
"What?" Xiao Taishun's eyes widened in surprise. "Exterminate the clan? On what grounds? He..."
"You're worse than animals." Guo Yajing curled her lip. "A whole family of three grown men betrayed a woman. It's disgusting. What's worse, they got the benefit and then acted innocent. You ungrateful wretches don't deserve to be members of the Xiao family." After saying that, she turned and left.
"Exterminate the clan? On what grounds?" Xiao Mo suddenly screamed, "Besides, if you're going to exterminate the clan, why didn't you do it sooner? We wouldn't have to suffer like this."
Guo Yajing had already walked away.
Xiao Mo wanted to scold her again, but Xiao Taishun stopped her, glancing at the page of the family genealogy: "This is not necessarily a bad thing."
