Chapter 1079
"I'm sorry, this is what the higher-ups mean. I can't make the decision on this matter."
"Please move out and stop affecting my work."
No matter how the two explained, they were eventually kicked out.
The two people's luggage had already been packed, and now the deposit was directly returned to them and their belongings were thrown out.
The two of them didn't bring much luggage, not even a quilt.
There was only a small bag containing a few clothes, and after being kicked out, the two of them didn't even know where to go.
"Old man, why don't we go back?"
This time, He Xiuhua did not ask what to do or why, but she had already thought about going back.
Over the years, she has encountered some setbacks in life, but she has never felt so powerless as she does now.
It seemed like no matter how hard she tried, the whole thing was making no progress at all.
A deep feeling of powerlessness enveloped her, making her feel dizzy every time she took a step.
Now we don’t even have a place to live, which is like the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
"No! Our son hasn't been rescued yet! We can't go back!"
Lin Jicheng, however, was very determined and refused to go back no matter what.
"Where will we live if we don't go back? We have to stay somewhere, right?"
"It's dark now, and the guesthouse won't let us stay. We're wandering around with our belongings, but we can't solve any problems."
"Even if we find a corner to stay, it might be okay for one day, but what about two or three days?"
"There's no end in sight to these days, and it's really making me despair. I don't want to stay here even a minute longer."
"If you don't want to go back, then I'll go back by myself."
He Xiuhua seemed to have made a great decision and didn't want to stay here even if she had to go back alone.
Seeing her like this, Lin Jicheng immediately snatched the bag and placed it in front of him.
"Don't even think about taking any of this money or stuff with you."
He Xiuhua hesitated for a moment, as if she had made a great decision.
"If you don't want to take it, then don't take it! Even if I have to leave today, I'm going to walk back by myself!"
He Xiuhua turned around and left after saying this. Lin Jicheng didn't expect her to leave so abruptly. After a moment of hesitation, he immediately followed her.
Lin Jicheng eagerly grabbed He Xiuhua's arm and said excitedly.
"He Xiuhua, don't you care about your son anymore? Are you really going to just leave like that?"
"He Xiuhua, if you dare to take a step today, believe it or not, I will divorce you."
Lin Jicheng wanted to use divorce as a threat, but He Xiuhua didn't care about anything.
"If you want to divorce, then divorce. I, He Xiuhua, have nothing to be afraid of."
"It's not that I don't want to take care of my son's affairs, teacher, I really can't do it."
"It's not like I haven't tried to persuade my son before, but he just wouldn't listen to me. What else can I do?"
"I've said everything I need to say and done everything I need to do. What else do you want me to do?"
"Now my son has gotten into trouble and wants me to clean up the mess, but I'm just a rural woman and I don't have the ability to do that!"
As He Xiuhua was talking, she actually started crying. She sat down on the ground and no longer cared about her face.
"Lin Jianli, you said you wanted a divorce and I agreed to it. You said you wanted to give me money and I gave it to you."
"I've done everything I can, and there's nothing I can do. Why are you still keeping me around?"
"Even if I stay, it won't solve the problem. Please let me go back. I don't want to live here and suffer anymore!"
He Xiuhua was a little emotionally broken and cried very loudly.
Lin Jicheng stood in front of her in silence for a long time, then suddenly slapped her.
"Not enough! Not enough! Not enough at all!"
"Our son needs help the most right now. Don't even think about abandoning him unless you die!"
Lin Jicheng used so much force in this slap that He Xiuhua's face was tilted to the side.
He Xiuhua raised her head and looked at Lin Jicheng in shock.
"Lin Jianli, we've been married for decades, and you hit me for such a small matter?"
"So what if I hit you? Who told you to be blind? Who told you not to know what's good for you!"
"You don't even care about your own son's life or death. How can a woman like you be so vicious and selfish? What's the point of living?"
"He Xiuhua, I'm telling you, if you dare to leave today, I'll break your legs! I wonder where you can go after you lose your legs?"
Lin Jicheng suddenly became furious, and He Xiuhua looked at him in shock.
"Lin Jianli, not only do you want to divorce me, you also want to break my legs? How can you be so vicious?"
"If you don't leave, I won't break your legs. If you dare to take a step forward, you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
A cruel smile flashed across Lin Jicheng's face, and He Xiuhua suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
Lin Jicheng said these words not to scare her, but he really intended to do so.
If I go against his wishes now, I probably won’t be able to go back.
Thinking of this, He Xiuhua softened her attitude a little and tried to persuade him.
"But I can't help much if I stay. I can go back and plant some crops and earn some money for my family. Wouldn't that be better?"
"He Xiuhua, stay if I tell you to! Stop bargaining with me!"
Lin Jicheng slapped her again, and He Xiuhua didn't even have time to react and was beaten to the point of vomiting blood.
She staggered two steps and almost fell to the ground.
He Xiuhua now realized that no matter what she said, it would be useless.
She lowered her head and seemed to have been tamed.
"If you don't let me go, then I won't leave. What's it like for an old couple to always fight?"
"So where are we staying tonight? Where are we going to eat?"
He Xiuhua became her former obedient and docile self again.
"How are we going to eat if we haven't even rescued our son?"
"We don't have much money on us, so we'll just find a corner to stay for the night."
Lin Jicheng no longer pretended and spoke in a very bad tone. Anyway, he felt that He Xiuhua would not dare to do anything to him, so he was naturally fearless.
