He let his wife go and test the depth of Gong Xin's waters.
He wanted to see if anyone would come out to support Gong Xin and seek justice for her after his wife had dealt with her.
If Gong Xin indeed had a strong backing, then he would apologize to her properly later on, send her some valuable gifts, and sweet-talk her into forgiveness.
But if Gong Xin had no backing, hehe, whether or not to keep that woman around became meaningless to him.
Mrs. Cheng had long hated all those mistresses and home-wreckers, and now with her husband's approval and direction, wouldn't she just tear Gong Xin to shreds?
The first time she took people to find Gong Xin, they beat her so badly she ended up in the hospital.
Seeing that no one came to Gong Xin's defense after the incident, Cheng Zhonghong was utterly disappointed in her and lost all interest.
After that, he let his wife bully Gong Xin as much as she liked.
But what he didn't expect was for Gong Xin's backing to be revealed only today.
