Chapter 199 - 199: 199 Women Are Weak, But Mothers Are Strong
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Jia was stunned, and her worldview was shattered.
Her husband was actually her cousin-in-law.
Because her cousin couldn’t give birth, she asked her husband to marry her.
After Xu Jia gave birth to a healthy child, her cousin would think of ways to force herself to divorce.
She would also try to persuade her to give up custody of the child.
Oh my god, was this her relative or an enemy?
Xu Jia’s worldview was shattered, and so was Zhou Kexin.
“Just because Jiajia has a soft personality, they treat her as a fool. How can there be such bastards in the world!”
Zhou Kexin was furious.
This couple was each more vicious than the other.
It was not an exaggeration to curse them with the worst vulgarities ever imaginable.
Xu Jia’s body twitched as she covered her face and cried.
No matter what, she could not accept this fact.
The husband who doted on her was actually a scumbag with ulterior motives.
She couldn’t believe that her cousin hatched such a vicious plan of borrowing her belly to give birth to a child.
“Jiajia, you’re not worth crying for such a scumbag.”
Zhou Kexin hugged Xu Jia and comforted her.
“Dr. Chen, what should we do now?”
“We can’t let these two scums succeed. They have to pay the price for what they did!”
Zhou Kexin was indignant.
Even if she couldn’t ruin them, she would still sue them in court.
She wanted to send them to prison on the charge of bigamy.
Glancing at Xu Jia, Chen Yu replied in a complicated tone, “1 understand your feelings very well, but this matter is difficult to handle.”
“The problem is that your cousin and her husband have already divorced.”
“His marriage to you is legal and has not violated the crime of bigamy.”
“Is there nothing we can do?”
Zhou Kexin was unwilling to give up this easily.
When she was in junior high school, Xu Jia was a girl with a weak personality.
She never quarreled with others, and even if someone bullied her, she would just endure it silently.
Zhou Kexin didn’t expect that after so many years, Xu Jia’s personality hadn’t changed at all.
Her cousin clearly took Xu Jia’s meek personality and treated her like a fool.
“Dr. Chen,” Xu Jia sobbed, “my heart is in a mess right now. Can you tell me what 1 should do?”
“I have two solutions,” Chen Yu calmly answered.
“The first solution is to divorce your husband according to your cousin’s idea and hand over the child to them.”
“After that, you should leave this sad place, forget this sad past, and start a new life.”
Zhou Kexin sighed, as Xu Jia would definitely not accept this method.
Ignoring the love she had for her husband, just her child alone was enough for her to give up on this suggestion.
A child was a mother’s heart, and most mothers would not abandon their children.
As expected, Xu Jia immediately rejected Chen Yu’s first suggestion.
She would rather go to court than give up on her child.
“Dr. Chen, I know you’re saying this for my own good.”
“But my baby is a treasure given to me by the heavens. Our mother-child relationship can’t be abandoned just because 1 want to.”
Xu Jia rubbed her tears and said, “If I go to court with them, will 1 be able to keep custody of the child?”
“Of course,” answered Chen Yu.
“Jiajia, you must think carefully.”
Zhou Kexin didn’t want her ex-classmate to lose her child.
But then again…
Xu Jia, who was in her twenties, would be having a baby by her side.
She would have to go to work and take care of her baby every day. Her life would be very difficult.
“Kexin, you don’t have to persuade me. I’ve decided to divorce him and go to court to fight for custody of my child.”
Xu Jia’s expression became determined.
For the sake of her child, she was willing to give up everything.
Her child must not fall into the hands of that scheming couple.
In order to get a healthy baby, the two came up with such an evil scheme.
If her child stayed by their side, he would be influenced and would be ruined for life.
Zhou Kexin felt both sympathetic and aggrieved.
While normally, women were perceived as weak, it was the opposite for mothers.
She believed Xu Jia could do it, but why did good people not get rewarded while bad people could get away with their evil deeds?
Xu Jia had never done anything bad; why did she get to end up like this?
What scums her cousin and husband were.
Thinking up to this point, Zhou Kexin suddenly recalled that Chen Yu hadn’t finished speaking.
“Dr. Chen, you said that there are two ways. Now that you’ve finished talking about the first method, shouldn’t you tell us about the second method?”
“The patient has already mentioned the second method,” Chen Yu said with a bitter smile.
“Divorce and fight for custody of the child.”
“Just this?”
Zhou Kexin was disappointed.
She thought that Chen Yu’s second method could help Xu Jia seek justice and didn’t expect it to be just that.
Chen Yu asked with a faint smile, “Dear patient, did your husband bring back a ceramic vase not long ago?”
“He said he bought the vase from a roadside stall and spent 50 yuan on it.” Xu Jia recalled.
“It looks good, so he bought it and used it as a decoration.”
“What if I told you that this isn’t an ordinary vase, but an antique vase?” Chen Yu said it with a faint smile. “Your husband spent five million to buy it.”
“Five million?!”
Xu Jia was shocked.
“He’s just an ordinary financial officer with a monthly salary of just over 10,000 yuan.”
“Before he got married, he used all his savings to buy our wedding house. How could he have the money for antiques?”
“Of course, he doesn’t have that much money,” Chen Yu said slowly. “The money for the vase came from his company’s public funds.”
“He embezzled public funds to buy a vase?”
Zhou Kexin exclaimed in surprise.
Chen Yu nodded and continued, “Your cousin works at the history museum, right?”
“Yes, my cousin is a relic restorer in the museum,” Xu Jia replied.
“Good.”
“In her spare time, your cousin will help rich collectors maintain antiques on a part-time basis,” Chen Yu said.
“There was once a holiday when your cousin went out to help a well-known wealthy man repair his antiques. She accidentally learned that there was a blue-and-white porcelain vase in his house.”
“The blue-and-white porcelain vase was originally a pair. Due to some historical reasons, this pair of blue-and-white porcelain vases was separated by someone.”
“The wealthy man told his friend that if someone could find the other porcelain bottle, he would be willing to pay 30 million to buy it.”
“Dr. Chen, please wait a moment.”
Xu Jia rubbed her temples and hesitantly asked, “Could it be…”
“That’s right.”
“While your cousin’s character isn’t that great,” Chen Yu said. “Her luck is quite good.”
“Two years later, she saw the second blue-and-white porcelain vase in the home of a local collector.”
“This collector has encountered some trouble and intends to sell the vase for five million in cash.”
Hearing this, Zhou Kexin understood everything.
Xu Jia’s cousin couldn’t afford five million yuan, so she turned to her ex-husband.
Using the nature of her ex-husband’s job, she got him to embezzle five million in public funds to buy the antique vase.
“The transaction date is set to be three days later,” Chen Yu continued. “The second day after the transaction happens to be the day of the company’s audit.”
Zhou Kexin had a flash of inspiration..
