Chapter 622: Chapter 622 Plotting

Pan Huiyun normally acted absurdly because she was certain her son wouldn’t get a divorce, but now that she knew the two were indeed separating, she was genuinely scared.

Even though her son had gone to college and was somewhat capable, she also knew that if it weren’t for the Li Family, their life wouldn’t be so comfortable.

The three new tile-roofed rooms of their house and the money used for daily expenses all came from her daughter-in-law’s family. Relying on her son’s meager salary was far from enough.

And this big house, without her daughter-in-law, where would they go to live!

"It’s no use," Wan Dongcheng said with a gloomy face, "That trick won’t work with their family. I hit Li Shiping and it’s like I touched their family’s bottom line. What we need to do now is to get custody of the baby first, then sell this house quickly. This house could sell for tens of thousands of yuan. With that money, we can do business and live a good life without having to look at the Li Family’s face."

Wan Dongcheng had long prepared for the worst.

If the Li Family didn’t help him, even if he didn’t divorce Li Shiping, life wouldn’t be good anyway.

It would be better to sell the house and keep a sum of money in hand.

As long as he had the money, even if he couldn’t make it in Licheng, he could do business in another city and come back after a few years.

"It can sell for tens of thousands of yuan?" Pan Huiyun’s eyes shone with greed.

She hadn’t expected such a large place to be so valuable.

With that money, how comfortably she could live!

"Yes!" Wan Dongcheng nodded. "Mom, don’t go back to the village these next few days. Just stay here. Don’t leave no matter who comes. Just squat here, keep dragging it out, until the house is sold."

Li Yue would dare to hit him, but definitely would not dare to hit his mother.

As long as his mother stayed here and didn’t leave, once the house was sold, he wouldn’t want to divorce Li Shiping.

"Okay," Pan Huiyun nodded. "They’ve held you back for so many years and didn’t arrange a good job for you. This house is a gift of compensation for you. As for the baby, you should just forget it. It’s a money loser. Why keep it? In the future, I’ll help you find a beautiful wife to bear you a bunch of sons."

"Mom, you don’t understand. I want the child for another purpose."

As long as the child’s custody was in his hands, he could control the Li Family at any time and place.

The Li Family also wouldn’t dare to burn all their bridges with him.

Perhaps he would live even better than if he hadn’t divorced.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you," Pan Huiyun said, suddenly feeling a twinge of regret looking at the things smashed in the room.

She had intentionally broken them to incite her son’s anger, believing that Li Shiping would replace them. Now it seemed, breaking these things was utterly valueless. Without the family’s money tree, she’d have to buy replacements herself.

Wan Dongcheng, looking at the mess, had an extremely ugly expression on his face and gloomily went back to his room. Pan Huiyun bent down to start picking things up, but soon began to complain of back pain.

Used to being lazy, Wan Dongcheng acted as if he couldn’t hear, not intending to help in the slightest.

Lying on the bed, his mind was full of schemes against the Li Family.

Just as everyone thought, Wan Dongcheng didn’t dare to openly bully the Li Family and He Nan, yet he was irked inside. Eventually, he turned his hostility towards Shen Mianmian, contemplating giving her a lesson but also not daring to bully her openly for fear of provoking He Nan.

After much thought, he decided to target Zhou Siyu instead.

...

Returning to the Li Family, after Li Yue put the child to bed, the family began a family meeting.

Li Julin, with a stern face, said, "This is the man you chose for yourself. Look at what he has become now."
