42: Ups and downs

"Aren't you two always wanting Xu Zimo and me to divorce?"

As Wang Pingping spoke, her gaze swept over her Biological Mother and younger brother, "As you wish, I've already divorced him."

"Divorced?!"

Her Former Mother-in-law stopped making a fuss, and Wang Qiang was even more dumbfounded.

He seemed to watch his mansion and luxury car drifting further and further away from him... "Sister, how could you make such a big decision like divorce without discussing it with the family? I don't agree with you divorcing Xu Zimo!"

Huang Yuqing was utterly stunned.

To what extent must one's reason be lost to utter such preposterous words?

It also showed how much of a psychological impact such drastic ups and downs had on Wang Qiang.

Her Former Mother-in-law also grew anxious; just moments ago, she was forcing her daughter to divorce, but now her attitude did a complete 180-degree turn: "Of course, a divorce must be approved by both sets of parents, otherwise it doesn't count!"

"Quickly call Xu Zimo and tell him to come over. I'll talk to him. What couple doesn't argue? We just need to talk things through."

Even though she had never given her Son-in-law a good look before, he had always accommodated her in every way.

Her Former Mother-in-law felt that if she softened her stance now and said a few kind words, it shouldn't be a big problem.

However, Wang Pingping broke down and yelled at her Biological Mother: "He blocked me and deleted all my contact information! If I could contact him, would I have been standing here foolishly for two days?"

Only then did her Former Mother-in-law understand, and only then did she realize why, in the past, whenever Xu Zimo slightly displeased her daughter, Wang Pingping would fly into a rage, yet now, she was bringing gifts and proactively visiting her in-laws to apologize and seek reconciliation.

Wang Qiang also recalled his own experience from a few days ago, and only then did he understand that perhaps they had already divorced on the day he asked Xu Zimo for money.

No wonder Xu Zimo was so unyielding then, and even severely set him up.

Even Tang Xinyi's sudden call that day might have been because Xu Zimo had told her something.

Immediately, Wang Qiang's face turned extremely ugly, and his whole body trembled.

He had been tricked!

Not only did he get nothing, but he also lost his beautiful fiancée.

All of this was Xu Zimo's fault!

He didn't think going to the KTV and hiring girls was his problem at all; instead, he blamed all the mistakes on Xu Zimo.

He merely asked Xu Zimo for some money, and his attitude was a bit poor; could Xu Zimo treat him like this just for that?

Thinking again of the mansion and luxury car in those photos... he was filled with unwillingness.

Wait.

"Sister, even if you two divorced, shouldn't you at least get half of that bastard's house and car?"

Wang Qiang's intelligence seemed to suddenly come back online, as if he hated Xu Zimo to the core, gritting his teeth and speaking without any politeness, "Moreover, with so much money, he must have hidden assets during the marriage. He is the party with major fault; we'll sue him and make him leave with nothing!"

Over twenty million was no small sum.

No matter how Xu Zimo earned it, it should rightfully be considered marital property, and Wang Pingping definitely had a share.

"Yes, it's his fault. Make him leave with nothing. We'll get the house and car back!"

Her Former Mother-in-law's eyes also lit up.

Her own son was truly smart, he knew so much!

She was already eager to seize that house, worth over twenty million.

"Sigh!..."

Huang Yuqing, standing by, sighed, and after attracting their attention, she said, "Pingping and I checked at the law firm. That money was earned by Xu Zimo after the divorce; it doesn't count as marital property."

Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, then retorted, "Earned after divorce? How is that possible? It's only been a few days; even if he robbed a bank, he couldn't get twenty million!"

He was indeed right.

Huang Yuqing also sighed inwardly, Xu Zimo's ability to make money was truly exaggerated.

What he had shown so far might not even be everything.

For some reason, she felt a bit lucky; if her Best Friend hadn't been so foolish, she probably wouldn't have had a chance, right?

She had witnessed how good Xu Zimo was to Wang Pingping back then.

However.

Thinking of Xu Zimo's promise to her, Huang Yuqing felt a bit expectant.

What would he reward her with?

Just thinking about it made her excited.

Huang Yuqing didn't explain further but instead looked at Wang Pingping.

Watching her dazed older sister, Wang Qiang's heart sank little by little.

This was probably true.

Which meant that everything Xu Zimo now possessed had nothing to do with them.

This emotional rollercoaster, with its ups and downs, made him stumble, and he seemed a bit lost, his gaze unfocused.

"Who cares when he earned the money? Where's his new home? You take us there, I'll talk to him!"

Her Former Mother-in-law showed no sign of discouragement on her face, immediately pressing Huang Yuqing.

Since it was a demand, she naturally wasn't very polite, which made Huang Yuqing's expression turn a bit unpleasant.

She was a Socialite; only others ever flattered her. How could she tolerate such disrespect?

Moreover, did she need to cater to this lowly person's mood?

Anyway, she had already completed what Xu Zimo asked her to do, so there was no need to continue serving them, "You guys take a taxi yourselves!"

She curtly dropped this sentence, then turned and left.

"What kind of attitude is that?"

Her Former Mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, then started cursing, and also rebuked Wang Pingping, "Look at you, what kind of friends do you make? So disrespectful, not knowing how to respect elders at all!"

After another fuss, the three of them hailed a taxi and headed straight for Binjiang Bay.

Huang Yuqing sent everything that happened here to Xu Zimo, in detail.

It was good to have an inside person.

Otherwise, one could only imagine what had happened.

Huang Yuqing indeed did a good job, and Xu Zimo had no intention of breaking his word.

The promises that needed to be fulfilled still had to be fulfilled.

Although Huang Yuqing's social circle looked very exquisite, in reality, she only had those two bags that she carried repeatedly, and they were all basic models costing just over ten thousand.

"When I have time, I'll take you to IFC."

Upon seeing his message, Huang Yuqing was instantly overjoyed. While thanking him, she also kindly reminded him: "Wang Pingping's family probably won't give up; they'll definitely go to Binjiang Bay to find you."

"Got it."

After Xu Zimo replied to this message, he focused on driving... Wang Pingping's family of three arrived at the entrance and, as expected, were stopped by security.

Although her Former Mother-in-law was displeased at being stopped, because she mentioned the owner's name, the security guard could only suppress his anger and confirm with his superiors.

Soon, the call went to Xu Zimo.

"I don't know those people."

After confirmation, security naturally couldn't let them in.

"My Son-in-law lives in there, why can't I go in? You few guard dogs, just wait until I complain about you to your superiors, and you'll lose your jobs!"

Her Former Mother-in-law cursed and grumbled.
