Zhu Xianzhi burst into tears and slapped himself several times, showing an attitude of extreme regret. He pushed all the responsibility onto Rong Shuhua and said with a hard heart:

"I did something to let Ling'er down, and I broke the promise I made during our wedding, but Ling'er is the only one in my heart. It was Rong Shuhua who had evil intentions and brought me to this point. I will not take her as my concubine.

If Ling'er cares about this, my uncle and I have already discussed it and decided to send Rong Shuhua to the farm, and in two years, my aunt will decide to marry her off.

If my father-in-law, mother-in-law and Ling'er feel that this still cannot make you calm down, I will hand Rong Shuhua over to my mother-in-law. Whether my mother-in-law beats her, scolds her, or sells her out, I will not hesitate, as long as Ling'er can calm down. "

He Jinchun snorted, "You were the one who expressed your true feelings at the beginning, you were the one who signed the agreement, and you were the one who had an affair with Rong Shuhua. Even if you were drunk, if you didn't want to, could Rong Shuhua not have done that on her own?"

Lin Tingxu's face darkened and he said, "There is no point in saying more. You have broken your promise during the wedding, and we don't want Ling'er to suffer such an injustice. Why don't we part ways amicably? Find a day to invite all the elders in the clan to be witnesses, and you and Ling'er can divorce and let this matter be over."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xianzhi paused his slapping hand, slowly raised his head, and his slender almond-shaped eyes suddenly turned cold.

He asked, "Are my father-in-law and mother-in-law really so heartless?"

Yongning Hou glanced at Lin Tingxu and He Jinchun gloomily, and then saw He Jinchun said unhappily:

"Are we heartless? Isn't it your own fault? At the beginning, I asked you what your relationship with Rong Shuhua was. You kept saying that she was your distant cousin. Is her real identity your distant cousin? She is the daughter of Mr. Rong.

You and Ling'er lied to us before your wedding. The maids and servants who came with you as a dowry saw you and Rong Shuhua having an affair. They also saw your father Zhu Jingzhong beat your mother Lan to death. Until now, you still haven't said a word of truth. How can my Ling'er not divorce you for such a mean act?"

“Hahaha…” Zhu Xianzhi, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly laughed coldly, slowly stood up, pointed at Lin Tingxu and He Jinchun, and roared with his slender phoenix eyes as if filled with poison:

“When we were discussing marriage, your Lin family drew up a dowry list with a total of 66 pieces of dowry. When Lin Luoling and I got married, you only gave us 6 pieces of dowry, saying that you would give us more after Lin Luoling’s heart palpitations were cured. It sounded good, but in fact, you just couldn’t bear to give us that much dowry, didn’t you?

If you didn't have that dowry list, why would I marry that paper-made daughter of yours?

Since Lin Luoling married into the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, she has been unable to serve her parents-in-law, and she can't even pay her respects to her mother-in-law every day.

I married a wife, not a Buddha statue that should be placed in Shuxi Pavilion for daily worship. I cannot touch or care about it, and even have to be careful when speaking to it. I am her husband after all. Has she ever fulfilled her duties as a wife?

If her heart palpitations are incurable, do I have to remain faithful to her until death? Wasn't it because she forced me to be with Rong Shuhua? If she could have sex, would she have forced me to look for another woman?

If I wasn't the only male in the Yongning Marquis's Mansion and had the responsibility to continue the family line, would I have touched a woman like Rong Shuhua?

I did that for Lin Luoling's own good, didn't I? If Rong Shuhua gave birth to a boy, Lin Luoling would be the head of the family, and it was only right that he should be raised by Lin Luoling. Even after he grew up, he should call Lin Luoling mother.

Lin Luoling suffers from heart palpitations. Can I still expect her to give birth to a boy or girl for me in this life?

My father beat my mother to death, so what? You can report it to the police. I have no official position. My father was arrested, even if he was sentenced to death, it was what he deserved. It was not me who beat my mother to death.

As long as I don't divorce Lin Luoling, Lin Luoling is my legal wife. If my father beats my mother to death and is arrested by the government and executed in the autumn, Lin Luoling will also be embarrassed.

Want to divorce? How is that possible? As long as I don’t press my fingerprints and agree, Lin Luoling will never be able to escape from my grasp in this life...hahaha..."

Hearing this, He Jinchun was furious. Even though she knew that Zhu Xianzhi had been pretending to be honest, she didn't expect that Zhu Xianzhi would look like this after he took off his disguise.

Lin Tingxu frowned, looked at Zhu Xianzhi and Yongning Hou sharply, and ordered them to leave: "Jiang Feng, send Yongning Hou and the second young master away."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Yongning immediately realized that Lin Tingxu had already decided to let Lin Luoling and Zhu Xianzhi divorce, otherwise he would not have called Zhu Xianzhi the second young master, let alone driven them out of the Lin Mansion.

Yongning Hou smiled slightly and said, "Xianzhi is indeed wrong. Luo Ling has not divorced Xianzhi yet. Brother Lin should think more about his daughter."

These words were obviously a threat to Lin Tingxu and He Jinchun.

He Jinchun snorted coldly and said, "My Lin Mansion is not something that anyone can control."

After saying this, He Jinchun took out the handkerchief that he had exchanged with the wife of Marquis Yongning in the past from his sleeve pocket and ordered Madam Qi to give it to Marquis Yongning.

She said, "The wife of the Marquis of Yongning must be too embarrassed to come to the Lin Mansion again. My friendship with her is over now."

Yongning Hou took the handkerchief, stuffed it into his sleeve pocket, and sighed softly, "Why do we have to go to this extent? Who among the noble families doesn't have two or three concubines? Even if Xianzhi was caught having an affair with Rong Shuhua, and even if the case was brought to the government, this is not grounds for divorce, right?"

After the voice fell, Marquis Yongning turned and left. Zhu Xianzhi bowed to Lin Tingxu and He Jinchun. When he raised his head, his slender phoenix eyes were extremely cold, and his two lips opened and closed as he said something silently.
