Chapter 170 - Jiang Xiurang\'s Answer

Li Tingzhe quickly rushed to her side and smiled. "Xiurang, what are you doing?"

Jiang Xiurang slightly stiffened. Jiang Fai pushed him away. "Are you blind! Can\'t you see? She is finally leaving you, which she should have done ages ago!"

He awkwardly laughed. "Fai. You don\'t have to be so hasty. We can talk about this."

He angrily laughed. "Talk about this? You still feel that something is left?"

Fretful and apprehensive, he said, "Yes, Fai. As your father, I have to say something," he smiled. "I am so proud of you. To think that you helped Jiang Industries with such a big proposal, I really feel proud of you."

Lihua raised her brow.

Jiang Fai was stunned.

What a shameless man!

He sneered. "Proud? You were only proud of that bastard Kang Hongqi and bitch Kang Meifen. Didn\'t you always remind me how much of a burden I was?"

The reporters whispered amongst themselves and shot sharp stares at him. Li Tingzhe stiffened.

Damn it! The media!

"Of course not! You are my son too. Why would I treat you as a burden?" He anxiously said.

The Kang family was stupefied by his sudden change of heart. Kang Hongqi felt furious. "Dad! How could you suddenly favor him now!? Just because he won one stupid competition!?"

*SLAP*

Li Tingzhe slapped him hard on his cheek. "Shut up, you fool! He is your elder brother! Is this how you talk to him? Where is your respect!"

Kang Hongqi felt a buzz in his ears. "Y-you slapped me…"

Kang Meifen was so terrified that she gulped and stepped back. She was jealous of all the praise Jiang Fai got, but she didn\'t want to incur her father\'s wrath either.

Kang Yuming cried. "Tingzhe... what are you doing?"

"Knocking sense into him! He should be ashamed of himself! Fai worked so hard and proved himself as an asset to the Jiang family even though he was suspended from school. Look how wisely he used his time. What is your son doing, huh? Useless! Pathetic! Hongqi and Meifen were doing nothing but wasting time in games and makeup! And look at my capable son, Fai. He is now famous and praised everywhere - In China and abroad."

Kang Yuming\'s ugly expression was as clear as day on her heavily make-uped face. Kang Hongqi clenched his fist. His nerves became visible in sheer anger.

Li Tingzhe would always humiliate Jiang Fai earlier. But now because of just one win, he scored all his favor, and now he compared Kang Hongqi to him! This was utterly insulting to him.

Jiang Fai was disgusted by his two-facade mask. Now, he was suddenly licking his boots as he saw him get recognition.

Li Tingzhe stepped in front of Jiang Xiurang. His voice was soft as he spoke, "Xiurang. I know that there have been differences between us. But why don\'t we forget everything and start anew?"

She blankly stared at him.

He said with a serious gaze, "Xiurang. I realize my mistake now. I have been unfair to you and Fai. Please let me correct all my wrongdoings and take you back to Li villa with me. You are my wife. Only you deserve to be the Madam and have that position."

Kang Yuming froze. Her heart raced in panic. "T-Tingzhe...what are you saying?"

He glared at her. "Shut your mouth! If you hadn\'t seduced me, would I have ever treated my wife like that? You snatched her place and now have the nerve to question me? Only Xiurang always has that right to live in the Li villa!"

She was stunned. Li Tingzhe had his share of fun by having physical relations with her. But now when he saw how beautiful Jiang Xiurang looked tonight coupled with his son\'s victory, he suddenly turned his head away from her and even blamed her for Jiang Xiurang\'s misery. The mistress and her children were suddenly left as an outcast.

Kang Hongqi and Kang Meifen\'s faces turned extremely red in embarrassment, seeing how he shrugged off all his responsibility.

"You...you...how can you say that, Tingzhe?" She gasped and let the tears fall. "You-you said that you will never leave me alone and take responsibility…"

"Hah! You fed my ears with your nonsense. You fooled me with your fake tears. You are a witch who came between us!"

Kang Yuming bit her lip hard. "No Tingzhe. I-I didn\'t mean to...I never wanted to take Xiurang\'s place…"

"Shut your trap! You shamelessly enjoyed eleven years in Xiurang\'s position! How greedier can you get, you wretch?"

She froze. Such humiliation in front of the media made her face turn crimson.

The Old Madam stepped in and said, "That\'s good, Li Tingzhe."

She coldly stared at Jiang Xiurang. "Xiurang. Don\'t stretch this unnecessarily. Li Tingzhe has realized his mistake and also apologized to you. It is best that you let this go and start anew as he says."

Jiang Xiurang looked at her in a stupor.

Li Tingzhe furiously nodded. "Yes, Old Madam. I appreciate your support. I promise that I won\'t let Xiurang suffer this time. Mistakes happen, and it\'s good to forget them and move on. Xiurang, dear. Forget about this divorce and let\'s live together again."

Jiang Fai almost jumped to punch him in the face but from the corner of his eye, he saw Lihua signaling him to stay back. He gritted his teeth.

Jiang Xiurang stared at the divorce papers in her hand for a long time. She then slowly placed the papers back on the table as she said nothing.

Li Tingzhe felt elated to know that she changed her mind. But in the next second, all his dreams shattered when she held the pen and signed her name on the papers.

"Xiurang!" The Old Madam angrily roared. "How dare you!"

Li Tingzhe watched her in horror as her name was imprinted on the papers. All the color drained away from his face.

He nervously laughed. "X-Xiurang...what are you-"

*SLAP*

A sharp and crisp slap resounded in the villa as Jiang Xiurang raised her hand and tightly slapped him across his cheek.
