Chapter 35: No Such Thing as Divorce Once Married

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When Jiang Jingchen heard Jiang Minglang’s words, his eyes turned dark as he gave Jiang Minglang a death stare.

Jiang Minglang felt the cold air emitting off his brother’s body and a chill ran down his spine. However, the thought that Jiang Jingchen wouldn’t act atrociously at their father’s home emboldened him.

“I wasn’t the one who said it. Lu Fan said himself that Tang Beibei is his girlfriend. Tang Beibei was standing next to him then, but she didn’t say anything.”

“It’s not like that. I, I don’t have that kind of relationship with him!”

Tang Beibei didn’t expect Jiang Minglang to know about the incident and even use it to make things difficult for her.

“I’m just friends with him!”

Jiang Minglang laughed mockingly. “I didn’t say that you two aren’t friends.

But you are boyfriend and girlfriend, aren’t you?”

“No, I…” Tang Beibei was so flustered that her forehead was covered in sweat. It was a complicated situation then and she couldn’t explain it easily. “I am not his girlfriend!”

Jiang Minglang continued, “It’s useless to quibble, Tang Beibei. I know that you despise my big brother for being ugly and disabled, and you want to find a better man. It’s understandable.”

“But you probably want to divorce my brother first before you do that kind of thing. Otherwise, you are just making my brother a cuckold and embarrassing him.”

Tang Beibei’s face was red with anger when she heard his sarcastic remarks. She lowered her head and met Jiang Jingchen’s sharp gaze. She felt as if her blood had frozen.

Cold air enveloped her and every breath she took felt like icicles stabbing her in the heart.

He was doubting her too.

However, it was a moment of folly for her to follow Song Kai’s advice that led her to this moment.

It was too late to regret now. She took a deep breath and squatted to meet Jiang Jingchen’s eyes.

“Hubby, I swear on my life that I didn’t betray you.”

Jiang Jingchen smiled cryptically. “Betrayal of the heart or the body?”

Color ran from Tang Beibei’s face. She squatted to look him in the eye but she had to raise her head slightly to prevent her tears from falling down.

Jiang Jingchen touched her head. His hand was big, dry but cold.

“Beibei, tell me when things like this happen in future. Don’t wait for others to inform me.”

“I…” Tang Beibei didn’t know what to say. She had been humiliated in school for no reason. Lu Fan and Song Kai were kind enough to help her. She felt that this kind of thing was quite upsetting, and she didn’t want to disrupt his recuperation.

She had never expected Jiang Minglang to make an issue of this to humiliate her.

“I’m sorry,” she said.

“What are you sorry for? Sorry for not telling me about it or actually having a relationship with that man?”

His voice was soft, but it felt like a sledgehammer swung directly at her heart. She had to grit her teeth so she wouldn’t cry out in pain.

“This is a misunderstanding. Senior Lu Fan and I do not have that kind of relationship.”

Jiang Jingchen sneered in his heart. Senior Lu Fan.

That was quite an affectionate title.

However, they were at the Jiang residence. No matter how much he minded Tang Beibei’s involvement with another man, she was his wife. Her being bullied was a sign of his incompetence as a husband.

“I believe you, Beibei. You won’t cheat on me.”

Tang Beibei smiled and held his hand again. “It was Jiang Minglang who twisted the truth and slandered me.”

Jiang Minglang laughed, “1 twisted the truth? Then I shall let the truth speak for itself.”

Jiang Minglang showed them a video. In the video, Lu Fan said in the school cafeteria that Tang Beibei was his girlfriend. Tang Beibei didn’t refute him, which meant she tacitly agreed.

Jiang Minglang even accused her further, “Did you even consider my brother’s feelings when you are being sweet with another man? Tang Beibei, what right do you have to say that you like my big brother?”

“… But…” Tang Beibei’s mind went blank when she saw the video. She tried to defend herself but she was at a loss for words.

She also felt that Jiang Jingchen had loosened his grip on her hand and his body had become even colder.

Old Master Jiang put down his teacup and looked at Jiang Jingchen.

He asked his son, “If you don’t want a woman like this, then divorce her. I’ll find you another bride.”

“No, no divorce!” Tang Beibei protested. “I can explain this. Hubby, someone scolded me online, and then a girl scolded me in person. Senior Lu Fan was only helping me when…”

“Helping you by calling you his girlfriend? Tang Beibei, we are not three-year-old kids. How can we believe your lousy excuse?” Jiang Minglang interrupted her.

Tang Beibei was so angry that she almost cried. “I’m not lying!”

“You’re not lying because you and Lu Fan are a couple and that’s why he helped you!”

The more Tang Beibei explained, the worse the situation got. She felt that she had walked into the trap that Jiang Minglang had set for her.

Jiang Minglang looked at Jiang Jingchen sympathetically as he said, “Big brother, you should divorce this kind of promiscuous woman. It’s not enough that she’s married to you. She had to look for another man. Divorce her quickly because keeping her by your side will ruin your reputation sooner or later.”

Tang Beibei raised her head and looked at Jiang Jingchen expectantly, hoping that he would believe her one more time.

Jiang Jingchen coughed. “Do I still have a reputation? How come I didn’t know about it?”

Ever since his car accident, he had been called a dying and sickly invalid, a short-lived cripple, and an ugly monster.

Only this woman accepted him as he was. She kissed his injured face, helped him put on his pants, and even said that she liked him.

If she had another man in her heart before, he would have kicked him out by now so he could move in!

“Beibei is the woman I married. This is a misunderstanding. I will ask Song Zhou to investigate the matter.”

Jiang Minglang didn’t expect his brother to be so tolerant. He chuckled and said, “Big brother, you can’t just think about yourself. You also have to think about the reputation of the Jiang family. If Tang Beibei is really having an affair with another man, the world outside will spread malicious rumors about the Jiang family.”

Jiang Minglang looked at Old Master Jiang. He knew that his father placed the most importance on the Jiang family reputation.

“Father, don’t you think so?”

Old Master Jiang nodded, indicating his consent for Jiang Jingchen to divorce Tang Beibei.

“I won’t divorce Beibei.”

Jiang Jingchen expressed his opinion as he and the old master looked at each other with cold eyes.

“For me, Jiang Jingchen, there’s no such thing as divorce once I’m married. Unless I die!”

“You, b*stard!” Old Master Jiang shouted angrily and threw his teacup to the ground when he felt his son’s disrespect and provocation.

He knew that his eldest son was mocking him about his marriage to his mother.

“You can tolerate your wife having an affair with another man?”

Jiang Jingchen shook his head. “Of course not, but she’s the woman you guys chose for me. You are blaming me now?”

Old Master Jiang was speechless as he glared at Jiang Jingchen, fuming.

“We can’t let a woman ruin the reputation of the Jiang family. If you don’t want to get a divorce, fine, but make her quit school so she can keep your company full time!”

It was the biggest compromise he was willing to make for his crippled son!

Tang Beibei frowned. She didn’t want to quit school.

She looked at Jiang Jingchen with pleading eyes, hoping that he wouldn’t agree to his father’s request.

But Jiang Minglang added fuel to the fire, “Big brother, you are disabled and can’t satisfy her sexually. Even if she doesn’t hook up with men in school, she would still hook up with men somewhere. She’ll make you a cuckold eventually. I’d advise you to divorce her and find a more obedient wife.”

Tang Beibei clenched her fists when she heard Jiang Minglang’s insults. She couldn’t take it anymore.

“Jiang Minglang, shut up!”

“Oh, you are asking me to shut up. I must have hit your sore spot.”

Jiang Minglang didn’t mind her anger and continued, “I think you don’t want to quit school because you can’t bear to part with Lu Fan. He’s the faculty hunk, with good looks and good body. He’s also the young master of the Lu family, doted on by everyone. He’s so much better than my big brother.”

At this moment, Old Master Jiang also spoke, “Butler, throw that annoying thing out!”

He called her a thing. His contemptuous tone and his disdainful expression made it seem as if she was a pile of unsightly garbage..
