Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 537: Matching a fair lady with a faithful dog does not guarantee everlasting love.

Su Yao said with relish, "When she went to find a lawyer, she said only one thing, ’It doesn’t matter how much it costs, just get the divorce done as soon as possible!’"

Could this be disdain for the Shen Family?

Thinking of Shen Xiaochen’s face that night, Su Yao couldn’t help feeling happy.

When Su Wanxin heard about this, she was intrigued, thinking of what Fu Shihan had said that night.

Ding Kai Ze was probably so quick to find a lawyer because of his threats, willing to spend a large sum of money to get the best lawyer, in hopes of letting Shen Xiaochen get less of the family estate during the divorce, right?

Even better, getting nothing at all.

Nowadays, the marriage law has been partially adjusted, making the division of assets before and after marriage clearer. If Ding Kai Ze does a bit more manipulation, it’s highly possible that Shen Xiaochen won’t get any money.

At her age, with her reputation ruined and her family’s financial situation far worse than before,

how could Shen Xiaochen find a good man after her divorce? It would be very difficult to find a successful and wealthy man to marry her unless it’s true love. Otherwise... she can only be maintained as a mistress.

"I heard she used to have a lot of conflicts with you, and her husband isn’t any good either," Su Yao commented while cracking melon seeds on the couch, "That’s why I say, even a match made in heaven can’t guarantee forever, right?"

"The reasons they got together in the first place weren’t simple."

Su Wanxin hugged her son and sat down, saying thoughtfully.

"I checked the news from back then, the Shen Family’s downfall today is largely thanks to me. And the timing of the Shen Family’s marriage alliance with the Ding Family just happened to be when the Shen Family had no other way out."

Su Yao: "One for money, the other for face, come to think of it, they’re quite matched."

"Yes, quite matched. Otherwise, what do you think Shen Xiaochen would like about Ding Kai Ze’s looks?"

Su Yao: "But this Ding guy is strange too. He was clear about the Shen Family’s destitution when he got together with Shen Xiaochen, so why does he suddenly regret it and want a divorce now?"

Had enough fun, got bored?

Then just hang Shen Xiaochen out to dry, why make such a big fuss?

The richer the person, the more troublesome it is to get a divorce, and it would also affect their public reputation. What kind of suicidal thing did Shen Xiaochen do to make Ding Kai Ze so eager to dump her?

Upon hearing Su Yao’s question, Su Wanxin fell silent for a moment, then spoke, "Because of Fu Shihan, I suppose."

"Huh???" Su Yao was startled. "What does he have to do with it?"

"Didn’t Shen Xiaochen say some harsh words to me that day? It reached his ears. He found Ding Kai Ze and said some things, so..."

Hearing this, Su Yao laughed. "This is quite rare, doing something decent, not bad. His reputation score in my eyes has just barely managed to climb from negative to zero."

Su Wanxin smiled faintly, and everyone got up to go upstairs to arrange the things they had bought today.

In the evening, at nine o’clock.

Fu Shihan drove back, looked up at Su Wanxin’s room from below, and slightly furrowed his brows, then made his way home.

The second day of the cold war with his girlfriend, and she still showed no sign of wanting to back down.

And he...

No, it was agreed that whoever backs down first is the dog, he shouldn’t even think about it, he must hold out.

Fu Shihan tossed his phone into the drawer to keep himself from constantly wanting to check for unread messages. But it wasn’t long before he took it back out again, placing it beside him.

The signal was poor in the drawer. What if someone tried to call him and couldn’t get through?
