Chapter 804: Chapter 793: The Nouveau Riche

"What’s wrong with Jianjun?" Cai Baoqin asked, her face pale.

"What’s wrong? You should be glad to hear he’s not dead!" Yan Juan retorted sarcastically.

"Yan Juan!" Yan Jian Country scolded softly, then coldly looked at Cai Baoqin and said, "Take San San inside to visit."

Cai Baoqin pursed her lips, finding it surprisingly difficult to move, and couldn’t help but ask herself in her heart, why? How did things end up like this?

When Yan Jianjun woke up, it was already the next day, his situation rather grim. The worst situation, as the doctor put it, had occurred—his recognition of people was already unclear, half of his body was paralyzed and immobile, and he couldn’t even control his own excretions.

Initially, Cai Baoqin was very guilty, but slowly she couldn’t take it anymore. Although they hired two caregivers, Cai Jianjun either hit or scolded them, using his one functional hand to constantly throw things. The first caregiver only lasted three days, and the second one, with half more salary, only lasted half a month. She had to do everything herself, otherwise, Yan Juan and her stepdaughter would resort to sarcasm, and her brother-in-law would look at her with dangerous eyes.

Caring for a stroke patient, especially one whose mind is muddled and uncooperative, is simply a torment, something even an iron man couldn’t endure. From the beginning of doing her best, Cai Baoqin turned into impatience, and finally aversion, she already had thoughts of divorce in her mind.

As she thought of divorce, her eyes flickered, thinking this might not be a bad idea. It’s uncertain if Yan Jianjun could ever recover, and if not, wouldn’t she have to spend the rest of her life caring for him? Should she waste the second half of her life on him?

Her brother-in-law’s position is high now, but can he meddle in matters between a husband and wife? Yan Jianjun wouldn’t sign a divorce, but couldn’t she still file a lawsuit? At worst, she would split half of the property with him, which is better than being bound for life.

The more Cai Baoqin thought, the more feasible this idea seemed, and thus she became less meticulous in caring for Yan Jianjun.

"How are you taking care of him? Didn’t you smell the stench from the third son?" Yan Juan, who habitually came to rebuke Cai Baoqin daily, criticized.

Having figured things out, Cai Baoqin was no longer as tolerant as before; she rolled her eyes and smirked: "Isn’t Jianjun not my only family? Aren’t you his sister? You go take care of him!"

"Cai Baoqin, what do you mean? Jianjun is in this state because of you, of course you should atone for it." Yan Juan said, pointing at her with her index finger.

"Stop acting so righteous every day, how is Jianjun my fault? We just had a fight that day, if you weren’t around, would he be that angry? Besides, it’s not like I didn’t hire caregivers for him, he was the one who drove them away, I’ve already lined up a new caregiver, they’ll be here later." Cai Baoqin sat still, infuriating Yan Juan.

"You... heartless thing, I knew you were selfish and ruthless back then, and it turns out true after all these years. Hasn’t Jianjun been good to you all these years? He even moved out of the big house for you back then, aren’t you ashamed to let him be like this?"

Cai Baoqin’s eyes flickered at those words, indeed, Jianjun had protected her when she faced resistance from the Yan family, but so what? Didn’t he still refuse to accept her parents? If he truly liked and loved her, he should have accepted everything about her, and since he didn’t accept, why should she be unwaveringly devoted to him?

She remained unmoved by Yan Juan’s words, because she felt she wasn’t wrong.

Soon, the Yan family knew about her plan to file for divorce, and the whole family looked grim.

"Big brother, we can’t let her have her way; now that the third son is down, she wants to get away effortlessly? How can it be that easy?" Yan Juan said, her face sour.

Yan Jian Country’s face wasn’t looking well either: "I asked a lawyer, in this situation, it’s possible to file for divorce, we can’t stop it."

"Then there’s absolutely nothing we can do? What about the third son afterward?"

"At most we can only get a better lawyer to fight for more property for the third son."

Meanwhile, the news of Cai Baoqin’s intention to divorce Yan Jianjun soon reached Ye Qiu, who had been keeping an eye on them, and he smiled crookedly, knowing this day would come but not expecting it so soon!

"Little Jin, thank you for your hard work this time," Ye Qiu said softly.

"Qiuqiu, it wasn’t hard, but I did hit a bit too hard, didn’t expect him to even lose consciousness," Little Golden Crow said in a childish voice.

"No worries, since he wanted to back Cai Baoqin back then, a little punishment is deserved, can you still fix it?"

"Anytime, unlike Xiao Lin whose condition was caused by a high fever, his recovery is slow, but with Yan Jianjun, it was my Spiritual Energy that obstructed him, just need to clear it out a bit," Little Golden Crow said proudly.

"Let him stay sick for now." Ye Qiu tapped the table, since Cai Baoqin wants a divorce, let her have one, but he wouldn’t let her get away easily.

"Dongsheng." He dialed a number, the very rogue he had beaten and made reform years ago.

"Big brother, what do you need?"

"Help me with a small matter, brainwash two old people and a woman."

"Big brother, understood, I’ll send two people to you right away."

"Hey, do you know?"

"Know what?" An ordinary vegetable market, one veggie seller and one egg vendor, the elderly woman spoke mysteriously; though they spoke lightly, it was overheard clearly by Cai Zhaodi, who came to buy eggs. Women of this age mostly loved gossip, so she lingered, slowly picking eggs.

"That Boss Chen from Sunshine District got divorced from his wife."

"What’s the big deal about divorce? Isn’t it quite normal these days?"

"It’s not just a simple divorce; wasn’t Boss Chen’s wife with him from the start? If they divorce easily, she’ll get half of the property."

"Yes, that’s how the law states, so what? Isn’t it split that way?"

"Though it’s marital property, Boss Chen’s wife is just a housewife, what does she know about business? Heard that before the divorce, Boss Chen maliciously transferred all the assets to the mistress’s name, the wife got nothing."

"Can it be done like that? Can’t the police track it down?"

"What can they track down? Boss Chen was meticulous, that mistress was once his business partner, even tracking it down would only be business losses, couldn’t be reclaimed."

"So Boss Chen’s wife ends up with nothing?"

"Exactly! How can people be so bad these days? Hey, are you buying at all? Been selecting all day!"

Cai Zhaodi’s face changed: "What, can’t I choose what to buy from your stall? I don’t want it now, what an attitude." With that, she hurriedly left.
