His forehead was instantly covered in blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shangguan Furong, what are you doing!” An old voice suddenly emerged in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother!” Zhao Ziqing pulled herself free from Shangguan Furong’s grasp and ran to Zhao Zijun’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao pounded her walking stick on the ground, “Even a tiger doesn’t eat its own cubs! Look at what you’ve done!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Shangguan Furong notice the injured Zhao Zijun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah!” She cried out in agony and collapsed onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How had her life come to this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandma, it doesn’t hurt. Please don’t blame my mother.” Zhao Zijun walked up to Old Lady Zhao and glanced back at Shangguan Furong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao closed her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The child was a good boy. It’s a shame he had the wrong mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come, Zijun, let Grandma take you to get your wound cleaned.” Old Lady Zhao held Zhao Zijun’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about Mother…” Zhao Zijun looked back at Shangguan Furong, who was laying on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Shangguan Furong seemed like a madwoman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were filled with despair, devoid of any signs of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anger clouded Old Lady Zhao’s face, “Don’t worry about her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, Shangguan Furong shouldn’t have taken her anger out on the children!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already proven herself as an unfit mother in the first half of her life, and yet, in the second half, she continued to harm her children!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for this matter, Old Lady Zhao had initially intended to simply give Shangguan Furong a warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted Shangguan Furong to understand that the Zhao Family didn’t rely on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she never expected that Shangguan Furong would show no signs of remorse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Ziqing also felt some fear towards the Shangguan Furong from earlier, and held onto Old Lady Zhao’s hand tightly, “Right! Let’s not care about her!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhao Family had a family doctor. After examining him, the doctor frowned, “The wound is quite deep, stitches are needed, and it might leave a scar. Remember not to eat any cold or spicy food for a while.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A scar?” Old Lady Zhao became anxious, “Doctor Wu, is there any way to prevent scarring?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The injury was on Zhao Zijun’s forehead. A scar would disfigure him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doctor Wu shook his head, “There’s no medicine that can prevent scarring, but luckily the wound isn’t big and a scar won’t ruin his appearance too much. You don’t need to worry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandma, I’m okay. Please don’t blame my mother.” Zhao Zijun tugged on Old Lady Zhao’s sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Shen didn’t come home until late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao was sitting at the dining table, the food on it had gone cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mother, you haven’t eaten? It’s late, you don’t need to wait for me.” Zhao Shen put down his briefcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao glanced at Zhao Shen, “Sit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.” Zhao Shen nodded, pulling out a chair and sitting down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao took a bite of the cold food, “How do you plan to handle the situation with Lin Fang?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Shen said, “I want a divorce from Shangguan Furong, and to marry Lin Fang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an afternoon’s consideration, Zhao Shen felt that he could not wrong Lin Fang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just because Lin Fang was kind didn’t mean she deserved to be bullied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you sure?” Old Lady Zhao looked up at Zhao Shen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Shen was very determined, “Yes, I’ve decided. Lin Fang is kind and dignified, I want to be with her!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Old Lady Zhao could respond, a disheveled Shangguan Furong walked over from the other side, “I don’t agree! I won’t divorce you! If you want a divorce, it’ll happen over my dead body!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, she wasn’t stepping aside for that wretch of a woman!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That wretch thought she could replace her and marry Zhao Shen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would never happen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few hours, Shangguan Furong seemed to have aged more than a decade. Her eyes were swollen and red, and her face was without a trace of color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Zhao Shen, it was as though nothing had happened to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the disparity between men and women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Furong, our relationship has already come to this. What’s the point of not divorcing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t care, I’ll never divorce you!” Having said that, Shangguan Furong turned and made for the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Lady Zhao sighed, “After all, she is the mother of the two kids.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family splitting up was not the result Old Lady Zhao hoped for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This marriage cannot continue.” Zhao Shen’s attitude was very firm, “I cannot let Lin Fang suffer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shangguan Furong, unwilling to divorce, locked herself in her room for days and wouldn’t speak to anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since the situation had come to light, Zhao Shen had become increasingly brazen, often bringing Lin Fang to the Zhao family villa, and would occasionally spend the night.\u003C\u002Fp>",867,"2026-06-05T19:00:18.905Z",1,"novelbin.me","c5060d3ba1c4a1681faa90f3a93e4a595f50bb55f180a00dba8dcd983f26b973","rebirth-of-a-village-girl-chapter-702","rebirth-of-a-village-girl-chapter-550",1410,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-of-a-village-girl-cover.jpg"]
