Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 834 - 250: [Tribulation?] (2)

But it’s not enough for Lu Xiuting!!

She has lived nearly twenty years of a wealthy woman’s life!!

To her previous standard of living, four million wouldn’t last more than three to five years!

And she’s only in her forties!

She’s not reconciled!

But more than anything, she’s terrified.

She began to fight with Yang Jiaming—not for assets, because Yang Jiaming had almost already left with nothing.

So, she fought for custody of the child.

Her idea was that if she could secure the child, then Yang Jiaming would still need to continue paying child support—for a child of the Yang family, the support wouldn’t be too little.

Thinking about having to move out of the luxuriously decorated flat in Binjiang and into a regular two-bedroom apartment.

Lu Xiuting was so terrified that she trembled all over.

The wealthy life she painstakingly exchanged everything for was about to collapse, and she couldn’t accept it!

But, she had no way out!

Her attempt to gain more money through fighting for her son’s custody from Yang Jiaming was quickly thwarted.

He hired a lawyer who was evidently more expensive than the one hired by Lu Xiuting.

Faced with the lawyer listing all her disadvantages: she hadn’t worked for many years post-marriage, had no employment or stable income.

And her health condition was concerning.

Most importantly, the will of her son, who wanted to live with his father.

If it were a young child, they might cling to their mother more.

But the son was already ten years old.

Having been influenced by Yang Jiaming’s education from an early age, he already understood the concept of reality at a young age.

After being convinced by Yang Jiaming, he knew that if he chose to live with his mother, his quality of life would significantly decrease, and he might lose the identity of being a "Yang family descendant" and miss out on the Yang family’s inheritance in the future.

The son signed a letter of intent, willing to live with his father.

Lu Xiuting was utterly defeated, her defeat overwhelming!

·

She didn’t want a life where she couldn’t afford the latest new luxury items, where she couldn’t eat lavish meals whenever she wanted, or travel wherever she wished.

She couldn’t bear that after losing the aura of a wealthy wife, the social circle she once interacted with might close its doors on her.

In the future...living in a two-bedroom apartment? Driving a car worth just over 200,000? Living on 10,000 a month?

What a joke, a single bag she bought would cost thirty to fifty thousand!

How could she live in a two-bedroom house? Was that a place befitting of her?

After going mad for a while, having negotiated several times with no results, unable to gain anything from Yang Jiaming, Lu Xiuting angrily signed the divorce agreement.

The cooling-off period was thirty days, during which Yang Jiaming moved out of the flat, leaving this thirty-day period of calm for Lu Xiuting.

However, once the cooling-off period ended, Lu Xiuting had to move out before obtaining the divorce certificate.

Thus...

Lu Xiuting went to find her daughter again.

The tool she used years ago to break into the affluent family of her dreams, her eldest daughter, Lu Sisi.

She knew very well that Lu Sisi could now afford to support her!

Afford to support her biological mother!

Lu Sisi lived in a single villa better and more expensive than Yang Jiaming’s flat.

Driving a Mercedes G-Class higher than Yang Jiaming’s.

Even that mysterious young man named Chen Yan had directly entrusted a billion-worth of businesses to Lu Sisi to manage, and all rental income and accounts were left to Lu Sisi—spend freely!

Only by relying on this daughter could she maintain her affluent lifestyle!

Continuing to live in a mansion, drive luxury cars, have her daughter be filial to her, and continue to enjoy a prosperous life...

However...

One sentence from Lu Sisi, "Mom, is it because Dad doesn’t want you anymore?" shattered all of Lu Xiuting’s pride and schemes!

·

"Although there’s not much deep affection, we are still biological mother and daughter. So, if I have the ability, I actually still want to take care of you—after all, this is a legal obligation; children have the duty to support their parents." Lu Sisi said slowly to Lu Xiuting at the time, "But Mom, you forgot, I didn’t even graduate from college. I’m technically on leave from school, and currently, I only have a high school diploma. Speaking of which, the reason I’m on leave is because of your previous indifference to the framing I encountered.

I don’t have a job, my life is sustained by my boyfriend. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The house is Chen Yan’s, the car is Chen Yan’s, all the money is also Chen Yan’s. Chen Yan is willing to let me share his house and car, share his money. But we are just boyfriend and girlfriend, not husband and wife.

There’s no sense in a boyfriend having to support the girlfriend’s mom in this world.

Mom, I’m not even at the legal age to marry."

At that time, Lu Sisi looked at Lu Xiuting and gently said, "Mom, I don’t have the ability to help you—Chen Yan has the ability, but he has no obligation, and...Chen Yan doesn’t like you as a person, let alone could I force him, nor could I use my relationship with him to coerce him into using his money to support someone he dislikes. I don’t have that authority."

After saying these words that day, the light in Lu Xiuting’s eyes swiftly dimmed, and she nearly slid off the chair onto the floor.

Feeling uneasy, as it was already late, Lu Sisi didn’t let her leave but let her stay in the guest room of the house.

·

That night, Lu Xiuting had a "dream."

In the dream, Lu Xiuting again heard the voice she often dreamt of in her midnight musings all these years!

The voice in the jade!

"Lu Xiuting, the transaction you wanted has been completed, and you have received twenty years of wealth and prosperity—do you regret it now?"
