Chapter 537: Chapter 537 Turning Active into Passive

Ding Lijuan stood outside the door, with Ding Liang and Guo Yueling behind her, holding their luggage, clearly ready to move in.

Han Bowwen was instantly furious and pulled Ding Lijuan aside.

"Lijuan, what do you mean by bringing them here?"

With a sense of entitlement, Ding Lijuan responded, "What else could it mean? Of course, it’s to have Xiao Liang move in and live with me!"

Han Bowwen was livid. "What are you joking? We agreed just yesterday, they weren’t allowed to live with us anymore. How can you go back on your word?"

"Who’s going back on their word? Wasn’t it just you talking yesterday? Did I ever agree to that?" Ding Lijuan retorted defiantly.

"You..." Han Bowwen was beside himself with anger.

Why had he wanted to divorce Ding Lijuan in the first place?

Wasn’t it because he no longer wanted to live with Ding Liang and Guo Yueling? But now, he had moved out, and those two clung to him like plasters. What was the difference from not moving out at all?

What was the point of all the effort and expense he had gone through?

Was it all for improving Ding Liang’s living conditions?!

Han Bowwen felt a deep sense of injustice, but he couldn’t confront Ding Lijuan directly, so he had to make a concession. "Well, we have a villa now, so let Ding Liang live in our Fenghua Residential Area house."

"If that’s not possible, we can even give it to them, just so they don’t live with us anymore."

This decision was already a significant concession from Han Bowwen.

But Ding Lijuan’s words completely shocked Han Bowwen. "It’s too late for that. I sold the house in Fenghua Residential Area right after I went back yesterday! Now Xiao Liang has no choice but to live with us!"

"What? Sold?!" Han Bowwen was seething with rage.

It was now clear that Ding Lijuan had rushed to sell the Fenghua Residential Area property, intent on not leaving any way out.

She was determined to have Ding Liang live in the villa with them!

Han Bowwen was utterly enraged. "No, I don’t agree! I’ve had enough of those two. I absolutely will not live with them again!"

Ding Lijuan snorted dismissively, "Well, if you don’t want to live with us, you can move out. No one is stopping you!"

"What did you say? You want me to move out!?" Han Bowwen’s eyes widened. "Don’t forget, this house was bought for me by Jingting!"

Ding Lijuan scoffed, "Have you forgotten that this villa is now officially transferred to my name?"

"Let me tell you, I am now the true owner of this villa. If you don’t start behaving, believe it or not, I can kick you out this minute!"

At this moment, Ding Lijuan regained her previous arrogant and domineering manner, a stark contrast to her feigned timidity from yesterday.

Han Bowwen stood there, completely stunned, as he realized the enormity of his mistake.

He had handed all the initiative over to Ding Lijuan!

A trap!

Everything that happened yesterday was a deliberate trap concocted by Ding Lijuan and Ding Liang!

Han Bowwen was so angry he could barely contain himself, tears of regret streaming down his face.

But Ding Lijuan didn’t even give Han Bowwen another glance, leading Guo Yueling into the villa to brazenly start selecting rooms.

Feeling helpless, Han Bowwen had no choice but to call Han Jingting and inform her of the situation.

Upon hearing Han Bowwen’s account, Han Jingting was also incensed.

Yesterday, without a word, Han Bowwen transferred the villa to Ding Lijuan’s name. At that moment, Han Jingting felt something was not quite right, and sure enough, within only one day, her fears had been confirmed!

The original purpose of Han Jingting buying this villa was to improve her parents’ living conditions and strengthen their relationship, but now it had backfired, leaving Han Jingting profoundly frustrated.

After finishing work in the evening, Han Jingting and Chen Xuan headed to Yuanheng Huating.

As soon as the door opened, they saw Ding Lijuan, Ding Liang, and Guo Yueling sitting in a row in the living room, chatting and laughing while watching TV and eating sunflower seeds.

Meanwhile, Han Bowwen was aproned up, cleaning the house.

It seemed as if Ding Lijuan, Ding Liang, and their company were the true masters of the villa while Han Bowwen was nothing more than a servant!

Witnessing this scene, Han Jingting’s anger surged instantly.

"Dad, what are you doing? Put down the mop right now! They’re all resting, why should you be working?"

"Jingting..." When Han Bowwen saw Han Jingting, tears immediately began to flow.

In just a single day, Han Bowwen had endured too many grievances.

Not only had Ding Lijuan made him clean, but she also had him make the beds for Ding Liang and Guo Yueling. Even dinner had been cooked by him!

And Ding Lijuan and Ding Liang, they lived like lords, enjoying the good life without lifting a finger!

Cracking sunflower seeds nonchalantly, Ding Lijuan said, "I asked him to clean. Is there a problem? Cleaning after eating is good exercise and beneficial for him!"

Han Jingting was utterly speechless, "Since it’s so beneficial, why don’t you let Ding Liang and the others clean?"

Ding Lijuan got impatient, "How can it be the same? Xiao Liang and the others are guests, since when do guests clean? Don’t you have any sense of propriety?"

Han Jingting, driven to ironic laughter, said, "You still remember they’re guests? They’re freeloading on food and accommodation at home, bossing my dad around as if they own the place. Anyone who doesn’t know better would think they were the real masters here!"

Now, Han Jingting was truly angry, speaking her mind without restraint.

Ding Lijuan couldn’t take it anymore, "How can you speak like that! As a daughter, you don’t care whether I live or die, yet Xiao Liang takes care of me. What’s wrong with me treating him better?"

"Enough, let’s stop beating around the bush and lay it all out today."

"Xiao Liang is staying in this family for good. I’m going to treat him like my own son!"

"As for you ungrateful ones, if you want to come and see me, you’re welcome. If not, I won’t miss you one bit!"

With those words, Ding Lijuan had essentially drawn a line between her and her daughter, Han Jingting!

Han Jingting was heartbroken, unable to believe that Ding Lijuan, her mother, could be so heartless!

Han Bowwen couldn’t stand it anymore, "Lijuan, don’t be foolish. Do you really think Ding Liang will take care of you in your old age?"

"He’s nice to you now only because you have money and are valuable to him."

"Wait until the day you run out of money or you’re bedridden and unable to move; let’s see if he still cares about you then!"

After everything that had happened recently, Han Bowwen had a crystal clear picture of Ding Liang’s character.

Before Ding Lijuan could respond, Ding Liang immediately declared with solemnity, "Uncle, I must disagree with you!"

"I can guarantee right now that no matter what happens to Auntie in the future, I will always treat her with the same filial piety as if she were my own mother!"

"I... I..." Han Bowwen was so angered that his chest heaved dramatically.

"I’ll be filial to your grandmother’s leg!" Han Bowwen, having had enough of Ding Liang’s declarations of loyalty, was overcome with rage and grabbed Ding Liang by the throat.

At that moment, he wished he could strangle his nephew to death!
