Jing Shaoze got the phone for his dad and his dad called Father Ni.
As soon as the call connected, Jing Shaoze’s father said, “Lao Ni, I’m Shaoze’s father…”
The moment he said who he was, Father Ni started hurling a flurry of curses at Jing Shaoze’s father. It was like he had the intention of giving personal curses to all eighteen generations of the Jing family.
Father Ni had always felt like he had let his daughter down for not giving her good health, so he was always very protective of her. Back then, he had liked Jing Shaoze because Jing Shaoze seemed to take good care of his daughter. That was why he had given an equal amount in return gifts as he had received in the dowry.
But they had actually mistreated his daughter so badly and even wanted her to raise someone else’s child. This bullying was intolerable!
They completely showed no respect for the Ni family, to actually have the nerve to try and take over the Ni family!
Jing Shaoze’s father couldn’t get a single word in. After Father Ni finished cursing, he directly hung up.
Jing Shaoze’s father sighed. It seemed that the Ni family was determined to get a divorce.
“Dad.” Jing Shaoze looked towards his father.
Jing Shaoze’s father looked at Jing Shaoze and said, “We have to prepare for the worst. The Ni family looks determined to get a divorce.”
“I don’t want to get divorced with Ni Jing,” said Jing Shaoze.
Jing Shaoze’s father glared at him. “Even if they want to get divorced, we must ensure the rights and interests of the Jing family. The shares of the company must be taken back.”
Jing Shaoze looked a little depressed. He couldn’t really make sense of this. “Why does Ni Jing want to get a divorce?”
Jing Shaoze’s father glanced at his wife, then at his son. His eyes narrowed as he said, “Perhaps Ni Jing has found out about what happened between Shaoze and that surrogate mother.”
“No way! I made sure to hide it from her. There’s no way she knew,” refuted Jing Shaoze. “Even if she did, there’s no way she wouldn’t make a ruckus, but she’s never talked about it. She’s never even asked about it.”
Jing Shaoze’s father was silent for a moment, then he finally said, “No matter what, we must take back that one percent of the shares. If she refuses to give it back, then we won’t agree to the divorce.”
Jing Shaoze pressed his lips together tightly. He didn’t want to get divorced.
The two of them had always got along very well. When he was with Ni Jing, it was very calm and comfortable. It was completely different from the intense passion he felt when he was with Ye Xi.
Jing Shaoze collapsed on the sofa, exhausted. All the events that had recently occurred left him very worn out and on the brink of falling apart.
Ever since Ye Xi arrived at the Jing family, things had fallen out of control. If it weren’t for her arrival, he wouldn’t have found out that he was infertile. After finally managing to pull himself together, now he was facing a divorce.
Perhaps he hadn’t gotten over it at all.
Whenever other people looked at him, he would feel that they were looking at him with ridicule. Even when their gaze was completely normal, he still felt like he was being laughed at.
Jing Shaoze sometimes couldn’t quite control his emotions. He was no longer as calm and confident as before.
How could a man who was sterile maintain any self-confidence?
If he could choose, he would rather spend his entire life with Ni Jing and never find out about this. That way, he could even gain a good reputation for loving his wife. He’d have no children because his wife couldn’t have children.
It was a pity that he hadn’t been able to pull through.
At this time, Jing Shaoze’s phone rang. He picked it up and found that it was Ye Xi, calling to ask if he would be coming to her place tonight.
Jing Shaoze was currently very vexed and found everyone to be an eyesore. He was even irritated with his mom. He resented her a little for insisting on finding a surrogate mother and having him sleep with Ye Xi.
He was also annoyed with Ye Xi. If it hadn’t been for her, things wouldn’t be like this.
He was angry with Ning Shu as well. How could this woman be so heartless and decide to get divorced just like this? She had been completely ruthless towards him and even called the police on him!
