Chapter: 4955

An Chengqiu said confidently, "Sister-in-law, this is a big thing. Can I really talk freely about Old Li with you two? He's truly fine. These past few days, he was busy with an unexpected event, so he didn't have time to contact you two."

Chen Junmei listened and her heart sank by half, but her anger quickly boiled over.

She immediately became irritated, saying, "What's the difference between Li Yalin and a devil? What kind of sudden event could be so urgent that he didn't even bother to send a three-second voice message on WeChat, saying he had something to attend to? He doesn't know his daughter-in-law is pregnant!"

An Chengqiu sighed deeply and quickly tried to soothe her, saying, "Sister-in-law, this matter is actually quite complicated. Don't blame Old Li. Let's just go inside and discuss it..."

Chen Junmei didn't know why, but her heart was still hard to calm down and settle.

She actually loved Li Yalin, but what annoyed her was that whenever he did something, he would ignore everything else, including his family.

As a wife, she needed not only a husband who could earn money to support the family, but also a double companion for her life and spirit.

And she knew that her daughter had needs from their father, far beyond just solving living expenses and tuition fees; what was more important was to spend as much time with him, making their child feel the love of their parents.

But Li Yalin had turned himself into an angel investor in this family.

What is an angel investor?

That means he only invests, but doesn't care about managing.

In any case, if I give you the money, do whatever you like with it, and since I have a lot on my plate, you can come to me for help if there's no problem; but don't bother me unnecessarily.

This was something Chen Junmei could not accept, and what made her most hopeless.

But when An Chengqiu said that Li Yalin had gone missing for so many days because of some sudden event, she suddenly felt tears welling up in her eyes, unable to help herself say, "Chengqiu, I'll tell you something from the bottom of my heart. If it weren't for the fact that I still have some emotional attachment to Li Yalin, I would have already filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences and taken legal action! Even in the United States, divorce is simple, and we've been separated for many years; which state we get divorced in doesn't matter."

As she was saying that, she took out a handkerchief and wiped her nose with it, looking hopeless and saying, "Alright, I won't torture myself anymore. As long as I'm sure he's still alive, I'll just file for divorce and get a simple divorce in Houston! And don't forget my three-character name is upside down!"

An Chengqiu was asking her to step into the elevator while smiling and encouraging her, saying, "I totally understand your mood, but please don't be impulsive. Maybe Old Li has his own good reasons too. This person you know, he only has two things in his heart: work and family. But for a long time now, he's been putting too much emphasis on work, which can sometimes make him get stuck."

"Too understanding?" Chen Junmei cried out, saying, "How am I supposed to understand this?"

"You just said he only had two things in his heart, but I'm telling you, he only has one thing: the pursuit of justice is always the pursuit of justice!"

"Do you know that he spent more time with those criminals than with me?"

As soon as the words left her lips, a girl suddenly shouted beside her: "Dad!"

Chen Junmei was startled and looked up to find Li Yalin standing at the elevator door.

At this moment, Li Yalin's face turned red with shame, his eyes pleading as he said: "Junmei, I'm sorry, I've worried you again..."

Chen Junmei was taken aback, then regained her composure and stormed out of the elevator, slapping Li Yalin in the face and shouting at him: "Li Yalin, you're a piece of trash!"

Li Yalin took the slap, his face now bearing not only a fresh red handprint but also a look of shame.

He hastily apologized: "I'm sorry, Junmei..." JrNovels.com
