When Ye Shun heard this arrangement, he felt it was a bit hasty, but he still agreed.
Zhao Fengnian chatted for a few more minutes, finalized the details, and left with Zhao Qiuyan.
In the Qunxianzhuang Villa Community, Ye Changqing looked at the familiar gate with a bitter feeling in his heart.
When he made his first fortune, he bought a villa here.
Jin Yurong started to pursue him after seeing this villa.
Years had passed, and things had changed.
There were three people in the yard.
Two of them had their backs to him, but even so, he could still recognize them as his mother - in - law, Jin Xia, and his brother - in - law, Jin Youxin.
The other person facing him was a little girl, about five years old.
The little girl was very pretty, with a chubby face and big, bright eyes, looking as lovely as a fairy.
At just one glance, he felt his heart melting because of her adorable appearance.
He recognized her at once as his daughter, Lingling.
It seemed that his daughter had made a mistake, and his mother - in - law and brother - in - law were scolding her.
Ye Changqing restrained his urge to go forward and identify himself. Children shouldn't be spoiled when they make mistakes. Without knowing the situation clearly, he couldn't rashly defend his daughter, or it would harm her.
So, he patiently observed the situation.
Jin Xia reached out and grabbed Lingling's ear. "Are you deaf?
I've told you so many times that in this world, only your mother is the one who loves you the most.
It must be those two old - fogey grandparents of yours who deliberately bad - mouthed your mother."
Lingling's ear hurt so much that she stood on tiptoe and argued through the pain, "Grandparents didn't say bad things about Mom!"
Jin Xia scolded harshly, "If they didn't say bad things about your mother, how come you think your mother doesn't love you?"
Lingling said with grievance, "Other kids' mothers pick them up from school, but my mother never picks me up.
Other kids' mothers coax them to sleep, but my mother has never slept with me.
I cry because I miss my mother, but she doesn't even come to see me.
The other kids say I'm a motherless child. Wuwu..."
Jin Xia was stunned for a moment, then corrected, "You're not a motherless child. You're a child without a father.
Has your father come to see you even once in three years?
Your father is the one who doesn't really love you!"
Lingling raised her little hand, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and argued in a small, fearful voice, "It's not like that.
Dad loves Lingling. Dad loves Lingling and Mom."
Jin Xia became furious. "You're talking nonsense, you little brat. You don't know anything.
Your father is a criminal in a labor camp. The police arrested him!"
Lingling cried and shouted, "My dad is not a bad person. He went to jail for Mom.
I heard Grandma and Mom arguing.
Dad loves Lingling. Don't say bad things about my dad!"
Ye Changqing's eyes became moist when he heard this. His daughter knew how to defend his reputation.
She was his little sweetheart.
Thinking that he hadn't done anything for his daughter in the past three years made him feel even more guilty.
Jin Xia saw Lingling crying and cursed angrily, "I say your father is a labor - camp criminal, and he is.
How dare you talk back to me at such a young age!
I think you need a spanking!"
As she spoke, she slapped Lingling.
Lingling was so frightened that she cried even louder, and the slap was about to land on her little face.
Suddenly, a big hand blocked it.
Ye Changqing blocked the slap for his daughter.
When Jin Xia was blocked and saw that it was Ye Changqing, she took a few steps back in fright. "You... What are you doing here?"
Ye Changqing bent down and picked up Lingling. "If I don't come, won't my daughter be abused by you?"
Jin Xia had been startled by Ye Changqing's sudden appearance just now, but now she calmed down. "Ye Changqing, what do you want to do?
Put Lingling down. Without signing the divorce agreement, you can't take Lingling away today."
When Ye Changqing heard the mention of the divorce agreement, he subconsciously looked at Lingling, fearing that she would be sad to hear this news.
Unexpectedly, Lingling was staring at him. "Dad, are you really my dad?"
Ye Changqing felt a bit guilty when asked. "I'm your dad. I'm sorry. Dad hasn't taken care of you for the past three years.
With Dad here from now on, no one can bully you!"
Lingling put her arms around Ye Changqing's neck. "I want to go home. I don't want to be here.
Grandma is like the wolf - grandmother, and uncle is the hateful big bad wolf.
They both bully Lingling.
Let's go quickly."
Ye Changqing held Lingling's small body tightly in his arms. "Let's go. Dad will carry you away."
Jin Xia stretched out her hand to stop them. "Ye Changqing, I said that without signing the divorce agreement,
you can't take Lingling away."
When Ye Changqing heard the tone of forcing him to divorce, he was filled with anger.
However, for fear of scaring his daughter, he held back his anger. "I've already signed the agreement."
Jin Xia sneered, "Do you think you can fool me?
If you signed the agreement, why didn't my daughter call me?
Ye Changqing, do you think that because my daughter is now worth nearly a hundred million and is the beautiful president of Songjiang City, you want to cling to her?
I warn you, you have to divorce whether you like it or not. You have no choice!
If you don't sign the divorce agreement today, you won't be able to get out of this yard!"
Ye Changqing's eyes were burning with anger, but to avoid exploding in front of his daughter, he was trying hard to hold it back.
Jin Youxin, who had practiced boxing, clenched his fists and walked towards Ye Changqing step by step. "Ye,
for three years, you refused to meet in prison, and I've smashed your house dozens of times.
I'm even tired of smashing.
If you dare not sign today, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Ye Changqing gritted his teeth when he heard this.
Images of the collapsed gate, broken furniture, and smashed - up concrete pool flashed through his mind.
The image of his father with gray hair and his mother looking haggard and old kept appearing in his mind.
Uncontrollable anger boiled in his chest.
"I also want to settle scores with you!"
Jin Youxin sneered. "I'm a boxer, and you still want to fight me?
You're really asking for it!"
As he spoke, he rushed forward with an arrow - step, and his right - hand straight punch aimed at Ye Changqing's face.
Ye Changqing held Lingling with one hand and covered Lingling's eyes with the other. When he saw Jin Youxin coming at him, he kicked out.
Bang!
There was a dull sound.
Jin Youxin's body flew backward more than two meters and crashed to the ground, kicking up dust.
When he wailed and got up,
Bang!
Ye Changqing kicked him down again. "For every time you went to my house, I'll give you a kick!"
As he said this, he kicked more than a dozen times in a row.
Jin Youxin covered his stomach in pain, rolling on the ground and wailing, "Damn it! It hurts so much. I can't take it anymore!
Please, stop hitting me!
I'm wrong. Please let me go!
Even if you don't divorce my sister, it's okay!
Stop it!"
Ye Changqing stopped and looked at Jin Youxin, who was wailing on the ground. He felt his anger subside a lot and said coldly, "This divorce is certain!
I've already signed the divorce agreement!"
Already signed the agreement?
Jin Youxin was stunned for a moment, then realized it was true. Ye Changqing couldn't be lying at this time.
At this moment, he felt his body hurt even more. If he had known this, he wouldn't have fought.
This beating was for nothing.
Jin Xia thought her son would win just now, so she had stepped back far away. She didn't expect that in an instant, her son was beaten until he howled.
It was the first time she saw Ye Changqing so crazy, and she was scared stupid.
When she came to her senses, she picked up the broom beside her and rushed towards Ye Changqing, shouting, "You're outrageous! How dare you hit my son!"
