Chapter 61: Chapter 61: The Ancestor Said the Life of the Wealthy is Not Easy
Soon, Wang Lijuan’s eyes filled with tears again.
“How much have I done for you? To save face for you, to have someone care for you in your old age, I bore your children, took care of your parents, and was forced to stay at home as a yellow-faced wife! But what about you, Cao Jianren? You’re nothing but a scoundrel! Think about it, how many times have you wronged me! Why can you betray me and still expect me to forgive you over and over again!”
Mr. Cao went pale, opened his mouth, but could not find the words to speak.

He indeed had not expected these things to happen.
Nor had he anticipated such a buildup of resentment in Wang Lijuan’s heart.
He clenched his teeth, and somewhat dazed, he asked, “So, you wanted to kill me?”
...
“What… is this all about?” Cao Jiaxing, looking at Mr. Cao and then at Wang Lijuan, said, “Mom, what’s going on?”
Wang Lijuan stared straight at Mr. Cao and said, “Yes, the sabotage on your car, Yamin and I did it together.”
At this, Cao Jiaxing’s eyes widened in shock, and he screamed, “Mom, have you gone mad!”
“Yes, I should have gone mad long ago!” Wang Lijuan stood up, seemingly deranged, “For the sake of this family, I’ve been neither human nor ghost all this time, I should have gone mad long ago! All I wanted was to live the rest of my life in comfort, just to get rid of this scumbag. Is that so wrong?”
Cao Jiadong was left speechless, “…you could have divorced…”
“Divorce?” Wang Lijuan let out a bitter laugh, “Why should I choose divorce, to give him half of my property? I’ve been the one keeping this family afloat all along; why should I let others benefit, to let him continue his life with that mistress while taking half of the property!”
Everyone was rendered speechless.
Xia Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling quite sentimental, it seemed that life in a wealthy family was not easy at all.
Jiangli had no significant expression on her face; all this was within her expectations.
“Lijuan, do you really hate me that much?” Mr. Cao asked blankly.
Wiping her tears, Wang Lijuan gave a bitter smile, “No, actually I shouldn’t hate you, I should hate myself. It was my own cheapness, my own concessions… If I hadn’t been like this… If I had chosen to divorce you from the start, it wouldn’t have come to this…”
Before she finished speaking, she collapsed to the ground, sobbing.
Qin Yue also couldn’t help but have her eyes turn red.
Her parents stood by, equally at a loss.
All of this was too absurd, something none of them had expected.
And no one knew what to do about it.
Mr. Cao fell into an unusual silence.
No one knew how long passed, and just when Jiangli was starting to feel drowsy, Mr. Cao broke the eerie silence.
“The sabotage on my car, was it your idea?” he asked Wang Lijuan.
Wang Lijuan, who had been crying for so long that her voice was entirely hoarse, could not speak; she nodded her swollen, lifeless eyes, “It was me…”
“What did Bi Yamin say?” Mr. Cao asked.
Having been his wife for many years, Wang Lijuan knew what he meant; she said directly, “It was my idea. Bi Yamin tried to dissuade me when he found out, saying divorce would be enough; he didn’t know about me taking action today. If you have to blame someone, blame only me.”
Mr. Cao clenched his fists with flames of rage in his eyes.
Xia Xin twitched the corner of his eye at this scene, feeling a sense of foreboding, of an impending storm.
But that was to be expected.
This incident must have been a substantial blow for Mr. Cao.
Betrayal by his wife and brother, plotting his murder…
Wouldn’t any normal person be unable to bear it?
