Everyone acted as if they hadn’t heard, watching her perform there.
Luo Qiao looked at all this, then at everyone’s expressions, and knew this was Du Xii’s usual routine.
So she ignored her, letting her act willfully, knowing that her husband would co over soon to deal with her.
Soon, Lu Yichen ca back with so people.
Without needing Luo Qiao to speak, the bystanders started talking all at once, explaining the situation thoroughly. If anyone missed sothing, others would fill in the gaps.
Yan Santai was so angry that the veins on his hands bulged: "Du Xii, do you not care about and our son at all?"
Du Xii stopped performing: "Why wouldn’t I care? What are you talking about?"
Yan Santai walked up to Luo Qiao: "Sister-in-law, I’m really sorry for what happened today."
Luo Qiao spoke calmly: "She ca once that day and asked to borrow eight hundred. I didn’t have that much money on hand at the ti, so I said I’d get it later and let your Director give it to you directly.
To be honest, I had my own reasons. After all, it’s not a small amount of money, and I don’t often co to the residential area. I’m not familiar with her, and if she really had an ergency, I wouldn’t refuse to help.
But when she heard that I didn’t have that much and would get it for you the next day, she said I should lend whatever I had at the mont. Before I could say anything, my husband ca back, and your wife then pretended she hadn’t asked to borrow money and left with the child.
I was puzzled at the ti. What was going on?
But since it was our first eting, I didn’t think much of it.
I didn’t expect her to co again today and even bang on the door loudly, which could be tolerated. But she shouldn’t have dragged my husband into it. It’s true he’s your Director, and you have the right to ask us for money in an ergency, but she shouldn’t try moral coercion. If we don’t lend money today, it ans we’re not friendly family mbers. She needs to apologize for this.
Yan Santai was truly infuriated by his wife and reached out as if to hit her, but Lu Yichen stopped him: "If you want to teach soone, do it at ho. What did my wife do to deserve being threatened like this?"
Yan Santai said to Du Xii: "It seems like you ignored what I told you this morning, right? And you still dare to cause trouble with sister-in-law. I think we shouldn’t stay together anymore."
Du Xii showed no fear: "Fine, let’s split the assets evenly, and our son stays with . Let’s handle the paperwork now."
Yan Santai might have been pushed to the brink: "Alright, those are your words. Don’t think having the only male grandson of the Yan Family will protect you forever. This ti, the one who doesn’t divorce is a fool. I’ve tolerated you for too long. If your brother doesn’t co asking for money a few tis a month, we can’t even get by. I married you, not your brother too."
Seeing Yan Santai seriously wanting a divorce, Du Xii panicked and turned to Luo Qiao: "Now you’re happy, right? If not for you, Santai wouldn’t be divorcing . You, of all people, Director’s wife, do you think the Director will just do nothing?"
Lu Yichen’s face darkened, and the colleagues who ca with him could tell he was really angry this ti.
They heard Lu Yichen say: "Yan Santai, though I’m a Director, my wife has never taken advantage of my position. Instead, because I’m the Director, she always has to consider my reputation. Now your wife is sothing else. Not only does she tarnish my wife’s reputation, but she also wants to drag down with her. That’s ruthless.
Since you can’t even control your wife, take a few days off. Once you’ve sorted things out at ho, you can return to work. I’m reluctant to even criticize my wife, let alone have soone else co and make trouble for her."
Du Xii laughed at Lu Yichen’s words: "Director Lu, you can’t do this."
Lu Yichen responded coldly: "What, do I need your instruction to do my job? You’ve caused chaos in this residential area, and I haven’t even held you accountable, yet you dare to lecture . You’ve really overstepped."
Yan Santai now felt like he wanted to kill Du Xii. He couldn’t tell if she was genuinely stupid or wanted to ruin him. It was all because he disciplined her this morning. He really couldn’t continue with her.
Recognizing the situation, Du Xii knew there was no hope of borrowing money today.
Her brother had said he must get the money today, or he’d get a beating. Right now, he was still waiting for her at ho. What should she do?
She hadn’t studied much and was raised to take care of her brother from childhood. So she never considered if offending the Director’s couple could affect her husband’s job or their life.
All she thought about was borrowing the money. If Yan Santai could repay it, great. If not, she didn’t believe the Director’s couple would co to their door demanding it back. They were people with reputations to uphold.
Thinking she could borrow without repaying was just wishful thinking. She really had so nerve.
