Chapter 52: Divorce Immediately
"Why?" Ye Xinyu's expression changed instantly.
"Because you have no future following him. Xinyu, do you know that Liu Wenyuan has returned from abroad? He suddenly disappeared a few years ago to inherit his grandfather's estate overseas, and now his overseas assets exceed ten billion," Wang Xueqin said.
"Why are you bringing him up?" Ye Xinyu was stunned.
"He went to our house. He said he would establish his headquarters in the country from now on. He doesn't care about your past either; if you divorce Chen Yu, he will marry you immediately."
"Don't say any more." Ye Xinyu stood up abruptly: "I have no relationship with him whatsoever. If you came here for this matter, get out right now."
"He is offering ten million plus a villa as a betrothal gift. Even if you don't think for yourself, think about your own family, will you? Your brother is currently in debt to loan sharks and is being hounded every day, and your sister-in-law is fighting with him for a divorce. What did I give birth to a daughter for?" Wang Xueqin shrieked.
"What future do you have following Chen Yu? I just can't figure out what is so good about this bastard that has you so infatuated!"
"Get out." Chen Yu's face darkened; Wang Xueqin was asking for a slap today.
"What right do you have to tell me to get out? If you have a shred of conscience, Chen, don't stand in the way of my daughter getting married," Wang Xueqin said angrily.
"First of all, this is my home. Furthermore, Ye Xinyu is my wife. Wang Xueqin, for the sake of you being my mother-in-law, I won't hold today's words against you. If you dare to sow discord between me and Xinyu again, I will slap you across the face," Chen Yu said in a deep voice.
Chen Yu was truly furious. Instigating his wife to divorce him right to his face? This kind of mother-in-law was truly rare.
"Chen Yu, don't be angry." Ye Xinyu hurriedly held Chen Yu's hand. She looked back and said: "Mom, you should go. Stop disturbing my life here, okay? I am living very well right now."
"Ye Xinyu, if you don't listen to me today, I will sever our mother-daughter relationship," Wang Xueqin said angrily.
"What did you say?" Ye Xinyu's face turned slightly pale. She never expected that her mother would actually force her like this.
"I said if you don't divorce, I will sever our mother-daughter relationship. Haven't you always wanted to get forgiveness from your father and me? Then divorce Chen Yu," Wang Xueqin threatened.
"Then let's sever it." Ye Xinyu's tone suddenly dropped.
"Ye Xinyu, have you grown wings? Are you really going to sever our mother-daughter relationship?" Wang Xueqin looked at her daughter in disbelief.
"Do you even consider me a daughter?" Ye Xinyu smiled, pointing at her stomach: "Right here, there is Chen Yu's child. You want me to divorce him?"
"You're pregnant with this bastard's wild seed?" Wang Xueqin was furious: "When did this happen? Get it aborted immediately!"
"Wang Xueqin..." Chen Yu was enraged: "Don't force me to take action. Get out right now."
"You..." Seeing the look of fury on Chen Yu's face, with the distinct feeling he would take action if things went wrong, Wang Xueqin immediately lost her nerve.
"Fine, I won't force you. I'm your mother; surely there's no problem with staying at my daughter's house for a few days," Wang Xueqin said, switching to a soft approach since the hard one didn't work.
"What exactly do you want?" Ye Xinyu furrowed her brows. She understood her mother; she wouldn't stop until she achieved her goal.
"Weren't you looking for a nanny before? I'm idle at home anyway. I'll take care of you for a while; why hire a nanny?"
Wang Xueqin said with a smile: "Xinyu, Mom won't force you anymore. As long as you're happy, anything is fine."
"Is what you're saying true?" Ye Xinyu's expression softened slightly.
"Of course it's true. Are you trying to drive me away?" Wang Xueqin put on a heartbroken look: "Forget it, I'll go. Raising a daughter, that's just how it is; sooner or later, she won't be of one mind with you."
"Chen Yu..." Ye Xinyu looked at Chen Yu as if seeking help.
"If she wants to stay, let her stay. The house is big anyway." Chen Yu understood that although Ye Xinyu was tough on the surface, she was actually unable to let go of her family. As a husband, he had to be magnanimous.
Wang Xueqin's attitude had changed too quickly; she definitely had other motives, but he would just have to be careful and observant these next few days.
Subsequently, Wang Xueqin did indeed stay behind, and her relationship with Ye Xinyu became intimate. Although Chen Yu was suspicious, he couldn't see any flaws.
In the afternoon, Chen Yu went out for a trip; it was time to check on his old classmate Yu Fan's situation.
Over the past few years, his father and wife had fallen seriously ill one after another, and Yu Fan had truly been squeezed dry. When Chen Yu found him, he had just finished work, and he and Liu Juan were squeezed into a basement of just over ten square meters.
Seeing his situation, Chen Yu sighed. It was almost exactly the same as his own before.
"Brother Yu, please sit. The place is a mess, sorry for the embarrassment," Liu Juan and her husband said, scrambling to host him.
"Alright, you two stop fussing. We're our own people, just sit," Chen Yu laughed: "Sister-in-law, let me take your pulse."
"Okay." Liu Juan extended her wrist.
Chen Yu checked her pulse and nodded: "The problem isn't major. I'll perform acupuncture one more time and adjust the medicine. From now on, the focus will be on recuperation."
"Thank you so much, Brother Yu. Otherwise, I really don't know how much longer I could have held on," Yu Fan said gratefully.
"Haha, don't be so polite. I remember everything you did to help me in the past," Chen Yu laughed: "What are your plans for the future?"
"I was working several part-time jobs before, not daring to slack off. Now I plan to quit the food delivery job. Once Xiao Juan's health improves, I'll make other plans," Yu Fan laughed.
"There's one hundred thousand in this card. Take it and use it first," Chen Yu took out a card.
"Brother Yu, what are you doing? You are my savior; how can I take your money?" Yu Fan was immediately angry.
"Don't be so distant. For one, I never paid back the money I borrowed from you before. For another, I'm not giving it for free. I'm short of people, so if you don't mind, come work for me," Chen Yu laughed.
"Brother Yu, look at what you're saying. I'm useless right now; as long as you don't mind that I have no skills," Yu Fan said with a bitter smile.
"Two choices. First, I have a company with an annual profit of ten million; you go learn for a while and become a general manager. Second, I have a few clubs; you go help keep an eye on things. This is more flexible in terms of time. But no matter which you choose, you'll have shares," Chen Yu said.
Chen Yu was indeed short of people. Zou Dalong had snatched the management rights of several clubs from Du Feng, and he held half the shares. There was also no one to look after the company side.
"I'll try the club. The time is more flexible, which makes it easier to take care of Xiao Juan," Yu Fan said.
"Alright, let's go take a look at the club first," Chen Yu laughed.
Jiye Entertainment had already been taken over by Zou Dalong, but after he took over, the illegal things in the venue were cut off. Chen Yu upheld the philosophy of legal operation.
The venue was overseen by Zou Dalong's subordinate Li Han. Chen Yu said: "Li Han, this is Yu Fan, my buddy. Show him the ropes; he will manage this place from now on."
"Yes, Mr. Chen." Li Han nodded and took Yu Fan to familiarize himself with the venue.
Chen Yu had nothing to do, so he went to the bar at the disco on the second floor and ordered a drink.
Suddenly, a girl stumbled out of a private room. The girl's expression was somewhat dazed, and several men rushed out behind her, dragging her back into the room.
Chen Yu's brows locked. The girl didn't look very old, and judging by her expression, it seemed she had been drugged.
