Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Panda Novel

“How can Ling Ling be more important than your son? Hurry and get divorced from Xu Shengnan! Didn’t you say that if you guys were separated for two years, then Xu Shengnan would have no choice but to get divorced?” Thankfully, Xu Shengnan cared about her dignity. Once they started the divorce proceedings, Xu Shengnan had immediately taken Ling Ling to the Xu family’s house.

Mother Fang felt that it was a pity that the Xu family had purchased a house in the capital using Xu Shengnan’s salary.

Logically, Xu Shengnan had purchased that house, and Xu Shengnan had married her son, so Xu Shengnan’s house should be her son’s house. If that house was under Shiyou’s name, that would be perfect. Then, when her grandson grew up, he would immediately have his own house!

Fang Shiyou grabbed his own hair. “Mom, it’s not that Xu Shengnan doesn’t want to get a divorce. It’s that it’s not that easy to get a divorce anymore. Once I divorce Xu Shengnan, this house will belong to Xu Shengnan!”

“What? Why? We paid for the down payment of this house! Besides, Xu Shengnan’s name is not on the property deed of this house!” Mother Fang was utterly shocked. How could this house just become Xu Shengnan’s and have nothing to do with them?

Fang Shiyou was dispirited. “You know that we paid for the down payment, but out of the one million yuan for the down payment, Xu Shengnan had forked out about a hundred thousand yuan. In the past few years, Xu Shengnan has paid for about four million yuan in total. You and I both know that we haven’t paid more than Xu Shengnan has for this house. The law states that even though Xu Shengnan’s name is not on the deed, she has a share in the house because she paid for it! And she has even forked out more money than we have… Mom, did you know that Xu Shengnan already knew about my affair and that that woman is pregnant? She has evidence against me. Just based on this alone, the lawyer said that I will definitely lose the case and the house.”

What made Fang Shiyou the most indignant was that Xu Shengnan went back on her word so easily. She had previously said that the house would be his as long as he could pay her four million yuan, but a few hours later, Xu Shengnan was no longer willing to do so. He had to pay her based on the market value of the property.

How could he possibly have twelve million? Even if it was just two million yuan, he would still have to borrow it from someone! There was no way he would get twelve million even if he were to put himself up for sale!

Frustrated, Fang Shiyou tussled his hair even more. In a moment, his hands were full of his strands of hair. “Mom, I think that I will lose everything once I get divorced from Xu Shengnan.” Without a house, could he still have a son?

Fang Shiyou’s mistress had clearly spelled out to him that she wanted both she and her child to become residents in the capital. The father of her child had to be from the capital, have a house, and not a small one for that matter.

Fang Shiyou’s mistress was rather pretty. As long as she was willing to do so, she could easily hook up with a man who was richer than Fang Shiyou. In fact, the one whom his mistress had been eyeing on was Fang Shiyou’s boss. Unfortunately, a big boss like him had no eyes for this young lady.

Fang Shiyou, who had been watching on from the sidelines, fell for the young lady and began a relationship with her. Learning that Fang Shiyou had a large house in the capital, she was not afraid that Fang Shiyou’s salary was lower than his boss’ or that Fang Shiyou was still a worker. She could not prevent Fang Shiyou from liking her to the point of being willing to get divorced from his wife to marry her.

Compared to his boss, Fang Shiyou was younger and had better looks. It was just that he had a low salary. But with such a comparison, the young lady felt that it was all right to settle for Fang Shiyou.

After all, women had to find someone who would take care of them for the rest of their lives. Since she had already found such a target, there was no point in delaying it any further.

One was blinded by beauty, while the other had her eyes glued on money. And so, the two of them got together and started an affair behind Xu Shengnan’s back.

Because she had already made herself clear from the start, Fang Shiyou knew that his mistress was sure to leave him if he did not have a house. To put it crudely, if the child in her stomach was not born, what Fang Shiyou would lose was a son. But if the child was really born, it would be a huge burden on Fang Shiyou.

“Then, what should we do?” Mother Fang was in a panic. They would be left with nothing. “Do you mean that you shouldn’t get a divorce? How about that? Don’t get a divorce from Xu Shengnan. When that woman gives birth, we’ll take the child and ask Xu Shengnan to raise it as her own. As for that woman, maybe Xu Shengnan will give her some money to chase her away.”

They would treat this as a transaction to buy a grandson.

To Mother Fang, having a house was crucial for living in such a large city like the capital. Her grandson was still the most important, but in such a situation that concerned the house, Mother Fang really did not care about which woman would be her daughter-in-law.

Mother Fang remained silent.

What for?

He was really in love with his mistress. She was young and tender, and her mouth was so sweet that she was always able to coax him. She was nothing like that tomboy Xu Shengnan. In front of Xu Shengnan, he always felt that he was not a man and that he was being suppressed by Xu Shengnan.

Was there really no perfect solution to this?

Fang Shiyou could not make up his mind and wanted to delay it further. The lawyer that Qiao Nan had found for Xu Shengnan earned his keep. Before Fang Shiyou even made his decision, the court summon had been sent to the Fang family and handed over to Fang Shiyou.

Since they had not been able to come to a consensus, they would meet in court.

In this way, both women who were related to Qiao Nan were getting divorced at the same time. The difference was that with Qiao Zijin and Zhou Zheng, Qiao Zijin had been the one to have an affair. On the other hand, Xu Shengnan had been cheated on by Fang Shiyou, who appeared honest outwardly. In fact, he was the one hiding the most lies.

“Minister, here’s the information that you wanted.” Qiao Nan’s working conditions in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had not been affected by these two incidents. Li Dawei handed over the documents in his hands. “Minister, do you have any other special tasks that you require me to do?”

“No, just finish whatever work you have on hand,” Qiao Nan said as she received the documents over from Li Dawei without even lifting her head. Li Dawei’s performance had only been slightly better than Xu Xinming’s, so Qiao Nan had never dared to instruct Li Dawei to complete any important tasks that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dealt with.

She had no other choice but to let Li Dawei handle some unimportant documents. Li Dawei did not come anywhere near the core tasks that the ministry dealt with. Qiao Nan unhesitatingly rejected Li Dawei’s ‘eagerness’ to learn, refusing to even give him a chance.
