Chapter 341: Women are Frail by Nature, but Strong as Mothers
"Teacher, don’t panic, I’ll be there right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Chen’s calm expression suddenly turned grim.
Ever since he picked up Su Xiao from that hotel that day, he had been checking on her frequently, worried that the scumbag Lin Haocheng might cause trouble for her.
However, after several days without incident, he naively thought Lin Haocheng had acknowledged his fault and let it go, but the bastard actually went to Teacher Su Xiao’s home to make a scene.
Luckily, he had dropped off Su Xiao once before and knew where her parents lived.
He headed straight there.
Right at the door, he could hear a man’s roar from inside the house, the sound of things being smashed, and the crying of a child.
"Su Xiao, you slut, how dare you ask me for a divorce? What right do you have?"
"If it wasn’t for my family pulling strings, could you have transferred from that backwater to Dragon City? Would your family be living the city life now? Now that you’ve got a spine, you think you can fly away? Dream on! I’m not granting you this divorce, let me tell you, you’ll never escape from the palm of my hand, I’d rather hang you dead than let go!"
The door was open, and as Li Chen walked over, he saw Lin Haocheng’s back, swaying drunkenly, furiously shouting at the people inside the house.@@@@
"Lin Haocheng, have you no shame?"
"Yes, it was your family who helped me get to Dragon City, but when have my family ever benefited from yours? My parents came to Dragon City out of concern for me, to help me take care of my child, but what happened? Your family treated them like servants, never once showed any respect to my parents."
"And you, I never imagined you could do such a thing, are you even a man? I must have been blind to agree to marry you."
Women are inherently weak, but become strong as mothers.
Su Xiao’s eyes were red as she stood in front, staring coldly at Lin Haocheng, angrily retorting.
With those icy words falling, Lin Haocheng’s face twisted into a more ferocious expression.
Used to lording over others and giving orders, when had he ever been berated like this? His drunken face filled with rage.
"Damn it, punk, I swear I’ll have someone cripple you."
Cursing, he struggled to get up from the ground.
But before he could steady himself, Li Chen showed no mercy, kicking him again, causing him to faceplant once more.
"I said, watch your fucking mouth!"
Li Chen walked over and bent down, his face icy cold.
Thinking of the abuse and humiliation Teacher Su Xiao had suffered, he was filled with indignation, and hearing that annoying cursing, there was no need for further tolerance.
"You still remember Teacher Su Xiao is your wife? Considering the filthy thing you did that day, Teacher Su Xiao didn’t report you to the police, you should be grateful." he said coldly.
"What filthy thing? Nonsense, do you have any proof?"
Lin Haocheng had sobered up a bit, seeing Li Chen’s icy demeanor, fear crept into his heart, and he retorted, with more bark than bite, "Fine, fine, fine, you want to stand up for her, right? Well, here’s the deal: dreaming of divorce! I won’t agree. You two dogs can’t be together..."
Before he finished his sentence, perhaps fearing another attack from Li Chen, he scrambled out the door.
"Li Chen, I won’t forget this, it’s not over yet..."
The man was gone, but his voice still echoed from outside.
"Li Chen, thank you!"
Su Xiao approached with tears in her eyes, her face filled with gratitude.
Li Chen composed himself, shaking his head with a smile, "Teacher, it’s my oversight. Don’t worry, I’ll figure out a way to help you!"
The day’s events had put him on bad terms with Lin Haocheng.
Although the scumbag had been scared off for now, his demeanor made it clear he wouldn’t let things go easily. Relying on Teacher Su Xiao alone surely wouldn’t solve things.
