Chapter 18: Where is my wife?
Xu Tian listened to Chen Xiaoxiao's cold questioning and was stunned.
"What exactly happened?"
He had been in the hospital taking care of Tang Bingyan for the past two days; when had he ever been with another woman?
As for wanting to kill Tang Bingyan, that was even more impossible!
"Heh, Xu Tian, things have reached this point, are you still going to pretend?"
"I'm too lazy to talk to you. Sign the divorce papers if you want, or don't. If you don't sign, don't even think about touching President Tang's assets!"
"Slap!"
After speaking, Chen Xiaoxiao on the other end of the phone hung up directly.
Listening to the busy signal from the phone, Xu Tian slowly took a deep breath.
He glanced at his phone, hesitated whether to call back, but in the end, Xu Tian gave up and returned the phone to Wu Yan.
He knew Chen Xiaoxiao's temper and character, and he also knew that Chen Xiaoxiao had a great prejudice against him; asking again would be useless.
"Mr. Xu, look at this..."
Wu Yan took the phone and pushed the divorce agreement forward.
"I will not sign this until I see her in person!"
After speaking, Xu Tian turned and left the ward directly.
"Ding-a-ling..."
Not long after he left, the phone rang.
The call was from his adoptive father, Xu Pingfeng.
Seeing the caller ID, Xu Tian's expression turned cold.
Xu Pingfeng being able to call at this juncture, there was no doubt that Tang Bingyan leaving Jiangcheng must have something to do with them.
Immediately, Xu Tian answered the phone with a cold expression.
"Xu Tian, did you divorce Bingyan?"
Xu Pingfeng's tone was unusually calm.
"I haven't signed yet."
After Xu Tian finished speaking, the other side was silent for a moment.
The next moment.
Xu Pingfeng's harsh questioning came through:
"What do you mean you haven't signed the divorce papers!"
"Why didn't you sign?"
"What did I tell you before? Get back here immediately and explain yourself!"
Hearing this, the corners of Xu Tian's mouth couldn't help but curl into a self-deprecating smile.
In his previous life, he had regarded Xu Pingfeng as his own biological father, thinking that everything he did was for his own good, and he listened to him in almost everything.
Was his brain kicked by a donkey back then?
If he could, he would never have any involvement with this family again.
But now, he still didn't know what was going on with Tang Bingyan.
He had to figure it out before he could handle this matter!
Thinking of this, Xu Tian took a deep breath and suppressed all the emotions in his heart: "I'm coming back now."
Jiangcheng, Fucheng Community.
Apartment 36, Building A.
After entering, Xu Tian looked at his adoptive father Xu Pingfeng, who had an ugly expression, and his adoptive mother Yang Rongjuan, who had a gentle expression, and spoke directly:
"Speak! What did you do to make my wife decide to leave immediately?"
Hearing this, Xu Pingfeng's expression turned even gloomier:
"How would we know whether Tang Bingyan left or not? Xu Tian, marriage is a major life event; you didn't even consult us about divorcing Tang Bingyan! This is simply nonsense!"
"Pingfeng, don't be angry. Xu Tian is still a child, he is still young, what does he understand?"
Yang Rongjuan, with the appearance of a loving mother, persuaded from the side: "Now that Tang Bingyan has already taken the initiative to divorce him, he is also very sad, don't scold him anymore."
"Hmph!" Xu Pingfeng snorted, his expression softened slightly, then he looked at Xu Tian and said: "I don't care what you think. After you divorce, all of Tang Bingyan's assets in Jiangcheng will be handed over to you, but with your current state, how can we be assured of leaving those assets in your hands?"
"How about this, after you sign the divorce agreement, come with me to transfer those assets; we will help you manage them for now, and when you have the ability to manage them, I will return them to you."
This time Yang Rongjuan didn't persuade him, but nodded deeply and said: "Xu Tian, your father is right. You are young and impulsive now, you can't hold onto those assets; handing them to your father and me is the safest."
Hearing this, the corners of Xu Tian's mouth revealed a faint arc.
"So you called me back because you wanted my wife's assets in Jiangcheng!"
He was wondering why Yang Rongjuan suddenly started speaking up for him; sure enough, when things are abnormal, there must be a demon!
Xu Pingfeng stood up abruptly: "Xu Tian, what do you mean by that? I am your father! Could I possibly harm you? I am taking the initiative to help you keep those assets for your own good!"
Xu Tian suddenly laughed: "For my own good? Xu Pingfeng, if you were really for my own good, you shouldn't have hoped for me to divorce!"
Hearing this, Xu Pingfeng's face turned black instantly.
Seeing this, Yang Rongjuan hurriedly said: "Xu Tian, we understand your situation with Tang Bingyan; whether for her or for you, divorce is the best choice."
"We can write a note; those assets you get after the divorce will still be yours, it's just that we will manage them for you temporarily, and the money earned during that period will be yours."
"No need. I said I won't divorce, can't you understand human language?" Xu Tian's tone already revealed endless coldness.
Yang Rongjuan sighed: "Xu Tian, we have raised you for more than twenty years after all; no matter what, we wouldn't harm you, right?"
"Wouldn't harm me?"
Xu Tian suddenly laughed:
"Your so-called 'wouldn't harm me' means designing for my wife to sleep with your biological son Xu Rixin?"
"It means letting me divorce Tang Bingyan and letting Xu Rixin marry my wife?"
"It means desperately hoping for me to divorce so you can seize the assets my wife gave me?"
"If that's the case, then I really have to thank you for not having killed me yet!"
Xu Pingfeng and Yang Rongjuan's expressions were ugly.
They didn't expect Xu Tian to bring these things out into the open.
Before the two could say anything, Xu Tian didn't want to waste any more words with them and asked again for the purpose of his coming:
"Speak, did you design for my wife to leave? Where is she now?"
"You little brat, what could Tang Bingyan leaving have to do with us? She left because she didn't want to see you for even one more day; divorcing her is the only thing you can do to compensate her!"
As he spoke, Xu Pingfeng's expression turned gloomy: "Xu Tian, no matter what, I am your father! If you still want to stay in the Xu family, sign the divorce agreement for me!"
Xu Tian laughed: "Heh! Want to be my father? Xu Pingfeng, a thing like you is not worthy! Tell me where Tang Bingyan is, and from today on, we will make a clean break, and I will never step into this house again!"
"Want to sever ties? Fine! Sign the divorce, and leave Tang Bingyan's assets behind! Otherwise, don't even think about walking out of this house today!"
After Xu Pingfeng finished speaking, three middle-aged men walked into the room and blocked the door.
Xu Tian recognized these people; they were the bodyguards of the Xu Pingfeng couple!
At this time, Yang Rongjuan no longer had that loving mother appearance.
She took a document out of the briefcase on the coffee table and walked in front of Xu Tian:
"Xu Tian, first sign the divorce agreement Tang Bingyan gave you, and then sign here, and after that, you can leave."
"From now on, we have no relationship whatsoever!" ===== CHAPTER 19 =====
