The Man In Rage novel Chapter 269

"When this fellow was around we never cared. But now that he's suddenly not around, it does seem rather strange. Li, why don't we tell Mu-Cheng not to divorce him first?" said Qiu Lei with a sigh as he sat with Han Li at the empty dining table and looked at the equally empty kitchen.

But Han Li shook her head and replied, "Ye Fan is of some use in the house after all these years, but we can't let Mu-Cheng give up her lifetime of happiness just over a small inconvenience to us."

"Think about it. After Mu-Cheng divorces Ye Fan and marries Yu-Hao, we'll be inlaws with the Sun family. Yu-Hao's family is so rich, he can afford to find a really good cook for us who would cook even more delicious meals than Ye Fan, no?"

"Besides, once we've got a son-in-law like Yu-Hao, we'll look so good! Nobody would dare to look down on us ever again!"

Han Li had straightened her back quite a bit as she said these words, as if she was about to get rid of a great burden in her life.

Qiu Lei nodded in agreement. "Li, you're right!"

Tve been too shortsighted. Who cares about this little bit of pain since we'll be rid of this burden and live happily after! We must make sure Mu-Cheng divorces Ye Fan tomorrow!" said Qiu Lei with determination as he clenched his fists.

After that, they just cooked some instant noodles for themselves before turning in for the night.

The night passed quickly.

Early the next morning, Han Li and Qiu Lei woke Qiu Mu-Cheng up and hurried to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Qiu Mu-Cheng seemed to have cried for a long time the night before and her eyes were a little swollen.

She didn't protest when her parents hurried her and went along with them.

It was as if Qiu Mu-Cheng had already accepted the reality before her.

"Where's that useless Ye Fan? Why isn't he here yet? Don't tell me he has regrets now? Mu-Cheng, call him and tell him to get here quickly!" Han Li hurried Qiu Mu-Cheng. She was so angry when she arrived to find that Ye Fan wasn't there yet.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't call him, as if she hadn't heard what Han Li said at all.

She still seemed to be holding out a tiny bit of hope.

She even hoped that Ye Fan wouldn't turn up at all.

"You terrible girl, what's wrong with you? Pretending not to have heard me?!" Han Li became even angrier when she saw that Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't listen to her.

She just felt that her daughter was really useless. They had come to this point already but she was still hopeful and was still so unwilling to get a divorce.

In the end, Han Li had no choice but to make the call herself. "Ye Fan, where are you? Why aren't you here yet?"

"I'm telling you, don't drag this out because it's useless. You're definitely divorcing Mu-Cheng today. There's no point in continuing to hang onto Mu-Cheng like this."

"After all, you've lived in the house for three years, so let's part amicably. I don't want to have to go to court just to get a divorce. If that happens, it'll make things even uglier. If you get a divorce now, it will look better on yourself. You know what state you're in."

"We let you stay in our house because we took pity on you. But now Mu-Cheng has found someone better and found true happiness. If you continue to cling onto Mu-Cheng, then you're holding her back. Everyone should live with a clear conscience. You've been living and eating off us for three years, so even if you aren't grateful to us, you shouldn't hold us back."

Han Li thought that Ye Fan was regretting it, so she quickly started ranting at Ye Fan over the phone.

Her words were very mean and didn't care about Ye Fan's pride at all.
