Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 855 I Don't Recognize You as My Father!

As General Zhao finished speaking, Guan Yan froze on the spot.

He actually agreed?

He was willing to give up all the wealth and success he had built up over most of his life in order to divorce her.

Instead of being happy, Guan Yan became even more hysterical after realizing this. Was she really that unbearable?

"Zhao Yingyi, you're in such a hurry to divorce me and haven't been home for so long. I'm afraid you already have someone else outside, don't you?"

Guan Yan seemed to suddenly understand the reason. Recently, she had tried many methods to persuade Zhao Yingyi to come back, but he ignored her completely and refused to return no matter what.

Even when she asked her son to take action, it was no use. Now she seems to suddenly understand why!

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

General Zhao never expected that after making such concessions and giving all his wealth to Guan Yan, he would still be smeared like this.

"You're absolutely unreasonable! I don't know what you're thinking all day long, you never say a kind word!"

"What? Did I hit a nerve? Your son's body is barely cold, and you're already hooking up with other women. Aren't you shameless?" Guan Yan said angrily.

"I can't be bothered to talk to you. Think what you want."

Zhao Yingyi waved his hand; he was already tired and really didn't want to waste any more time with Guan Yan.

"You were right! You really have another woman behind my back!" Guan Yan's eyes reddened as she angrily grabbed Zhao Yingyi's clothes, seemingly unwilling to accept it.

Song Ruozhen and the others originally came to watch a good show, since the evidence was conclusive and even if Madam Zhao wanted to deny it, it would be useless. Who would have thought that after arriving, they would witness a divorce drama.

Since the couple is getting a divorce, it's inappropriate for them to say anything at this point; otherwise, they'll just seem like they're being unreasonable.

“I think Old Zhao is also at his wit’s end. He wasn’t like this before.”

Song Lin shook his head. As fellow generals, he and General Zhao naturally knew each other, but because he had been staying at the border for the past two years, they hadn't had much interaction since returning.

Seeing him again now, I realized that Old Zhao was truly different from what I remembered.

Seeing his good brother finally come to this, Prince Gong felt a sense of helplessness. It was all a family tragedy, and no one could save anyone else. It was all fate.

Just then, Zhao Zilei appeared angrily.

"Father, Mother has always been sincere to you all these years, how could you treat her like this?"

When Guan Yan saw Zhao Zilei appear, it was as if she had seen the last straw. She cried and said, "Zilei, your father is a real scoundrel. He actually wants to divorce me for another woman!"

Since I married him, I've dedicated myself to this family for so many years and have never wronged him. How could he treat me like this!

Zhao Zilei looked incredulous. "Father, is what Mother said true?"

"Don't listen to her nonsense, she's completely unreasonable!"

He won't admit his mistakes, and if this continues, who knows what he might do next.

"Don't listen to your father. His heart has long been bewitched by that vixen outside, so naturally he finds fault with everything I do."

As Guan Yan spoke, she wiped away her tears, "Zi Lei, your father has long since changed his mind. Now, only you and I still care about your brother."

Now that he's determined to settle things with me, I'll only ask you one question: if we settle things, will you stay with your father or with me?

When Zhao Yingyi saw Guan Yan ask such a question, he quickly replied, "Zilei is my son, so naturally he will stay with me!"

"Why should my son have to stay with you? You already have other women. Can't those other women have children for you?"

What would Zilei do with you? You fickle, heartless wretch! Do you expect me to stay in your household and get in your way?!

Guan Yan launched into a long tirade of accusations, as if General Zhao were a faithless and treacherous man.

Zhao Yingyi was at a loss for words, feeling utterly exhausted from talking to this woman.

"Zilei, don't listen to what your mother is saying. There's no such thing. It's just that if he continues to act recklessly, it won't do any good for any of us."

Now that so much time has passed, we should all move on. If you continue to indulge her like this, she will only become more and more unreasonable.

General Zhao knew very well how good his son was to his mother. Originally, he and his son had a good relationship, but in the past two years, as his wife kept talking, it seemed that a rift had formed between him and Zilei.

Zhao Zilei looked at his father in front of him, then at the large group of people behind him, and his eyes gradually turned hostile.

"You clearly saw that your mother had gotten into trouble and didn't want to take responsibility for her, so you thought you could just throw her out and clear yourself of all blame!"

Do you think I'd believe you when you say such high-sounding things now?

Seeing that Zhao Zilei didn't believe him at all, Zhao Yingyi realized just how much of a failure he had been as a person.

He's no good as a husband, no good as a father, and now even his wife and children don't believe in him anymore.

"That's it, that's it."

Zhao Yingyi shook his head in disappointment, unsure whether he was disappointed in his family or in himself.

He turned to Prince Gong, his eyes filled with guilt, "I've made you laugh at me; it's my fault."

Prince Gong opened his mouth, but at that moment he didn't know what to say.

After all, they had been brothers for many years. Now, watching helplessly as his wife and children were torn apart, and knowing that he himself was partly to blame, he was speechless.

It can only be said that fate played a cruel trick on them; none of them wanted things to develop to this point.

"I understand that you've had it tough too."

Jia Yueying had originally harbored resentment towards General Zhao, but now her anger had dissipated.

Ultimately, this was a tragedy, and the Zhao family suffered a great deal of pain. However, they couldn't bear the pain and blamed everything on their daughter, which was something he also couldn't tolerate.

She no longer wanted to hate the Zhao family, but she also didn't want to pay them any more attention.

The best outcome would be to never see each other again.

"They specifically called the Song family here, just to take this opportunity to sever ties with our family and salvage their daughter's reputation."

Father, I never imagined you would be so spineless, hurting my mother for the sake of some outsiders.

"If you divorce my mother, I will never acknowledge you as my father again!"

Guan Yan finally felt a little comforted when she saw her son protecting her like this.

Although her husband is unreliable, at least her son is reliable.

Song Lin and Gu Ruyan were just watching the fun from the sidelines, knowing that this was not a suitable occasion for them to step forward, but they did not expect to be suddenly called out by Zhao Zilei.
