Chapter 614: A Divorce is Fine

When Qin Wenze got home from work, he was once again greeted by a cold, empty kitchen.

He let out a deep sigh.

’What is it this time?’

Gao Lan came out when she heard him arrive.

She was scowling, her expression grim.

Qin Wenze looked at her. "What’s wrong with you now? Isn’t today your day off?"

Gao Lan had been working for almost a month now.

And things at home had quieted down considerably since she started her job.

But today, she was back to her old, fuming self.

’Who set her off this time?’

Gao Lan had been stewing all afternoon. She hadn’t been in a good mood since she got home.

"I saw your mother bought one of those electric tricycles for Fu Mingxue today."

A bicycle costs a hundred and twenty.

One of those tricycles, and an electric one you don’t even have to pedal... that must cost at least several hundred.

Qin Wenze was a bit baffled. "A tricycle? What tricycle?"

"One of those three-wheeled ones, with a cargo bed in the back. And it’s electric! Qin Wenze, your mother is so biased! Why would she only buy one for Fu Mingxue and not for us?"

Qin Wenze was at a loss.

’So that’s what this is about,’ he realized. ’Gao Lan saw someone else with something nice and got jealous again.’

He really couldn’t understand it. Why was Gao Lan so jealous of everything Fu Mingxue had?

’It’s not like their own life is any worse than anyone else’s, is it?’

’In fact, if you had to compare, they were better off than most people.’

’Didn’t he buy her a bicycle when she needed one for work?’

’Why does she have to compare every little thing with his sister-in-law?’

’His sister-in-law will only have more nice things in the future. What is Gao Lan going to do then?’

"That tricycle you’re talking about couldn’t have been from my mother. It’s more likely my sister-in-law bought it herself. Some factories are on good terms with her. So, just drop it."

"How could it not be from Mom? I admit Fu Mingxue is capable, but this costs real money. Does she have that much? Don’t tell me you’re trying to say someone gave it to her as a gift?"

Qin Wenze sighed. "Can you please stop staring at her all the time? We should just focus on our own lives. Besides, even if Mom did pay for it, what does that have to do with us? I’ve told you before, the Qin family’s money and property have nothing to do with us. Why are you so possessive about my mother’s and my family’s money?"

He truly didn’t understand.

’Before they got married, he never realized Gao Lan had such a huge problem!’

Gao Lan was so furious at his words she could have died.

"You ask on what grounds? I’ll tell you. On the grounds that I’m a daughter-in-law of the Qin family, and she and I are sisters-in-law. Is that not enough?"

"It’s not enough. Because I’ve basically been kicked out of the Qin family. Therefore, the family’s money and everything else have nothing to do with us. Even if they did, it would only concern my son and daughter."

Qin Wenze’s expression had grown extremely impatient.

He didn’t want to argue about this anymore.

"Gao Lan, I’m telling you this one last time. However much money or whatever things my mother or the Qin family gives my sister-in-law, it has nothing to do with you or me. You don’t need to be jealous of her all day long. If you insist on being like this, then let’s just get a divorce. I can’t stand living like this for even one more day."

Gao Lan’s eyes reddened with fury. "Qin Wenze, do you really think I can’t live without you? Fine, you don’t want to be with me? Give me ten thousand yuan, and we’ll get a divorce. And the house has to be mine, too."

’As if anyone actually gives a damn about your Qin family.’

"Ten thousand? Are you insane?" He wondered if she even knew how much money that was.

It wasn’t just that he didn’t have ten thousand yuan on hand; even if he did, he would never give it to her.
