Chapter 615: Divorced

Gao Lan had had enough of this kind of life.

She roared in anger:

"Weren’t you the one complaining I couldn’t have children? Didn’t you already plan on leaving me long ago? But don’t you forget who’s responsible for me not being able to have children!"

"Your family made me lose the right to be a mother! Your family made my life so miserable, is asking for ten thousand too much?"

Qin Wenze’s face instantly turned ashen.

On the subject of children, he truly had nothing to say.

Because what she said was the truth.

He fell silent for a long moment. "Ten thousand is impossible. Two thousand at most."

When Gao Lan heard this, her heart truly died.

For Qin Wenze to say something like that meant he was truly set on divorcing her.

She took a deep breath. "Give me five thousand and this house. If you agree, we’ll get a divorce. If you don’t, we’ll just keep on like this."

Qin Wenze: ...?

An hour later, Qin Wenze arrived at the Qin Family Mansion.

When Mrs. Qin saw him, she wasn’t surprised at all.

"Did you get into another fight with your wife?"

"Mom, can you lend me four thousand?"

He only had one thousand on him.

It was all he had managed to save over the years.

After all, Lan Qingman used to be quite the spender.

His salary was basically spent as soon as he got it.

The moment Mrs. Qin heard "four thousand," her brow furrowed deeply.

"Borrow four thousand? What are you planning to do?"

"I’m divorcing Gao Lan. She wants five thousand and the house. I agreed."

He had decided to just go through with the divorce; living alone was better than arguing with her day in and day out.

Mrs. Qin: ...?

"Are you crazy? Divorcing her? Did you bring it up?"

Setting aside everything else, just on the matter of the child—no matter how much she disliked Gao Lan, Gao Lan was still the victim.

She had made the couple move out precisely because she didn’t want to deal with their drama.

She wanted them to live their own lives in peace outside the family home.

But she never expected they would still stir up so much trouble that they’d end up on the verge of divorce.

"I brought it up first, but Gao Lan agreed. She originally asked for ten thousand, but later she came down to five thousand, and I accepted. Mom, lend me the four thousand. I’ll pay you back later—"

Mrs. Qin sneered, "Lend you four thousand to get a divorce? Let me tell you, I don’t have it. Solve your own problems. And another thing, even if you do get divorced, don’t even think about moving back in. Anyway, don’t expect any help from the Qin family."

She paused, her tone softening considerably. "You were the one who chose her. Now she has some health problems. If you really divorce her, how will she get by for the rest of her life?"

"Divorce is not a child’s game, and neither is marriage. You’re an adult. Don’t just do whatever you please."

"She’s getting the house, five thousand, and a job. She’ll be better off than she was with me."

Qin Wenze was truly exhausted.

He had given them so many chances.

But every time Gao Lan ran into his younger brother and sister-in-law, she couldn’t control her jealousy.

They would have a huge fight every time, and he really couldn’t take this kind of life anymore.

Mrs. Qin: ?...

"Anyway, I’m not getting involved in your affairs. And don’t come to me to borrow money."

Left with no other choice, Qin Wenze could only leave.

「Three days later.」

When he appeared at the Qin Family Mansion again, he said only one thing: "I divorced Gao Lan."

Mrs. Qin: ...?

Mr. Qin: ?...

Once she processed it, Mrs. Qin asked directly, "Where did you get the money?"

"I borrowed some from friends, and also from—" Qin Wenze hesitated.

Mrs. Qin: ...?

"From who? It wasn’t Granny, was it?"

Qin Wenze gave a pained nod.

Mrs. Qin: ...?

"Mom, how could you lend him money?"

Granny Qin sighed. "I didn’t know he was going to use the money to get a divorce—"

’When my eldest grandson came to borrow money from me, how could I refuse?’

’I didn’t think much of it at the time.’

’I just assumed that after my eldest grandson moved out, life must have gotten difficult for him.’

"Qin Wenze, you son of a bitch, you even tricked your grandmother out of her money! I’ll kill you—"

Mrs. Qin exploded with rage, chasing after Qin Wenze and hitting him.
