From Sidekick to Bigshot

On the way home, Cai Qinyue was crying. Whenever she stopped crying, she would hit Wen Cheng.

Wen Ruo could only softly cry as she watched her parents argue.

Finally, the three of them arrived home.

Once Cai Qinyue got home, she began to break items and curse at people. A lot of noise was made.

Wen Ruo attempted to persuade her mother: “Mother, don’t be upset with my father. He made a mistake. He was just confused and lost. Please forgive him.”

Wen Ruo was in a lot of pain. The happy family that she once had was falling apart.

Why did things turn out this way?

Why did this have to happen!

However, Cai Qinyue could not accept this: “Just confused and lost? That’s why he slept with another woman?! I’ve never been so humiliated in my life! He comes from a scholarly family, yet he does such a disgraceful thing! He’s an animal!”

Cai Qinyue completely forgot that a while ago, she used the word “confused” in an attempt to justify the actions of her and Wen Ruo.

Wen Cheng attempted to explain the situation: “Qinyue, I told you I did not mean to do such a thing. I was drunk. I did not know that the woman was not you!”

Cai Qinyue: “What does did not mean to do such a thing achieve?! You’re a bastard!”

Wen Cheng: “Well, what do you want me to do? What can I do?”

The deed had already been done. There was no way to turn back time.

Wen Cheng crouched down in pain and held his head in his hands.

He did not know what to do.

He actually slept with another woman.

The Wen family looked down upon having romantic affairs with others whilst being married. All these years, he managed to avoid this immorality.

Other than his wife Cai Qinyue, Wen Cheng kept his distance from women.

He would have never thought that…

Wen Cheng buried his head in his hands.

Furthermore, the woman that he slept with bore some resemblance to his wife when she was young.

This caused Wen Cheng to remember his wife in the past.

Back when he got to know Cai Qinyue, he was attracted to her mannerisms. The two of them were happy together.

So many years had passed since then. Although they still got along, there was no longer the feeling of love.

He did not know where they went wrong.

They would always argue over small things. However, he did not think these matters were important.

In fact, he never thought of divorcing his wife.

Even after the recent incident, he did not think about divorce.

After all, marriage in his heart was a lifetime thing.

However… Today he did something to betray his wife…

Wen Cheng deeply regretted his actions. Despite this, he could no longer change what had happened.

What was going to happen to his marriage… What was going to happen to his family…

On the second floor, Wen Yan indifferently listened to the argument happening downstairs.

There was no expression of joy nor pain on his face.

He knew what kind of person his eldest uncle was. If he wanted his eldest uncle to give up on his marriage, he had to break his view of marriage.

Naturally, this process would cause the family a bit of pain.

Wen Yan called the middle-aged man from before: “Go tell this to the woman. If she can give birth to my uncle’s child, as long as the child is confirmed to be my uncle’s, I will reward her ten million dollars.”

“Are you serious Young Master Wen Yan? Your uncle is so old already…”

“Well, that’s up to her abilities.”

“Understood.”

“Also, there’s one more thing that I want you to do.”

“Young Master Wen Yan…”
