Seven Years of Lies, I Ruined His Life - Chapter 12
I said that for Guan Qin to hear.
That night, while Guan Qin was in the shower, her parents cornered me and talked nonstop.
I hesitated for a long time, but in the end, I didn’t tell them about the divorce.
Guan Qin and I had been together for so many years.
Even if the love was gone, there was still a familial bond.
I was truly fed up with Guan Qin’s emotional volatility, but I couldn’t deny her contributions to our family.
Besides, when Guan Qin’s parents made a scene, they were relentless. If they took it to my company, it would be me who suffered.
I soothed her parents’ emotions.
I also called a friend back home in front of them, asking him to help.
They were relieved to hear that it wouldn’t cost 500,000 yuan and that he wouldn’t have to go to jail.
I sat in the living room the whole time.
After everyone had gone to bed, Guan Qin came out to find me.
She looked down. “Jiang Yongliang, don’t worry about my brother. We’re divorced. You don’t have to get involved.”
I had been in a pretty good mood.
I had even forced myself to forget about how Guan Qin had nitpicked with me a few days ago.
But I didn’t expect her to be so ungrateful.
I deliberately asked her, “Then why didn’t you tell them we’re divorced?”
When I saw Guan Qin’s parents today, I suddenly understood.
I understood why Guan Qin had agreed to divorce without separating.
She didn’t dare tell her parents about the divorce, and she had no way of stopping them from visiting under the pretext of seeing their grandson.
In the end, it was Guan Qin who couldn’t leave me.
