Li Chang and his wife came prepared today and personally brought Lin Wan many supplements at their own expense.
They even specifically prepared 500 yuan for her. This time, Lin Wanās surgery and hospitalization were paid for by Tan Aixiang.
Lin Wan didnāt even know how much had been spent. This money should have been covered by Li Chang, and them only offering now already gave them respect.
As for Li Chang. Han Yi and Lin Wan wouldnāt let him off so easily.
Li Chang and his wife didnāt get the response they wanted and could only return unsuccessful.
Li Chang and his wife left, but Shen Rong didnāt leave.
According to Tan Aixiang, Shen Rong wanted to divorce Li Chang.
"Cousin, cousin-in-law, I know Iāve done many wrong things before, itās all my fault. Whether you hate me or not, even if you dislike me, Iām begging you, please help me this time. I want to divorce him and let the child stay with me. He was originally agreeable, but after he talked to his parents about it, the two elders disagreed with the divorce and were even more unwilling to let me take the child."
"Why should I help you?" Han Yiās resentment towards Shen Rong stemmed from childhood, even though as a grown man he shouldnāt be so petty.
However, he just couldnāt forget the scenes of Shen Rong bullying him when he was young.
"I...." Shen Rong was momentarily speechless. Yes, she should be asking her own parents for help. But her father didnāt want her to divorce after all, since they had a child now. She had thought Li Chang might change for the better in the future.
Her mother was willing for her to get a divorce, but both parents were hesitant about it. Theyāve been hesitating for so long, dragging this on wasnāt right either.
She knew that her elder brother and sister-in-law, along with Han Yi, could help her. She really wanted to leave Li Chang quickly now.
Sheās had enough of such days.
When she was young and naive, she was drawn in by Li Changās sweet talk, obedient and docile towards him, wishing to give him her whole heart.
However, day by day, life gradually lost its charm and joy. After having a child, it became more distressing. She felt bitter beyond words.
Exaggerating a bit, her life was too tragic. She didnāt want to live like this anymore.
That day, Li Chang and his wife failed to negotiate with Han Yi. Shen Rong also didnāt get their help.
Lin Wanās wound healed well, stitches were removed a week later, and after staying in the hospital for a few more days, the doctor said she could go home to recuperate.
The scar was too large, and there would definitely be a scar on her back. Her once fair and smooth beautiful back was ruined by Li Chang like this.
Han Yi held a grudge against this.
A few months in jail was certain.
Although Han Yi said he wouldnāt help Shen Rong, during mediation with Li Chang,
he still helped Shen Rong successfully get a divorce, with her getting custody of the child as she wished. Besides the medical expenses, Li Chang was made to pay an additional one thousand yuan.
Because Lin Wan would surely be left with a scar, the one thousand yuan was compensation.
Over these years, Li Changās money had long been squandered thoroughly, and he didnāt have any more. Shen Rong didnāt get a penny from the divorce.
The newly built house, however, was sold, and they split more than one thousand yuan each. But given that his parents agreed to let Shen Rong have the child, this half of the money wouldnāt be given. So Shen Rong, in essence, walked away with nothing.
Li Chang was in big trouble this time, having spent more than a thousand yuan, all paid by his parents. His two brothers saw all this.
There would be trouble ahead.
Actually, Lin Wan didnāt care about compensation, she was most concerned about how to get rid of the long scar on her back now.
"Itās so ugly," On the third day after being discharged, Lin Wan could now lie down to sleep. The wound on her back healed well and didnāt hurt, itās just that the centipede-like scar looked particularly ugly.
"Itās fine, itās a new wound thatās just healed, mainly because your skin is fair. The new scar is pink, so itās particularly noticeable. Look at the scars on me, after some time, they wonāt be that noticeable." Seeing his wife unhappy, Han Yi quickly took off his shirt to show her his own scars, deliberately finding a less obvious one.
But it backfired; even the lightest scar on Han Yi was more severe than hers.
"Mommy, Little Star wonāt despise you. Mommy is the best mommy in the world."
"Yes, yes, and I would never dislike my wife, I adore my wife the most."
"Oh, you two smooth talkers." Obviously, Lin Wan appreciated the praises from her daughter and husband.
"Is there anything youāre craving? Iāll cook it for you." Han Yi gently touched Lin Wanās flat belly.
Their second baby was on the way, yet her abdomen remained as flat as in her youth. Having seen many women who lost their figures after giving birth, Han Yi found it rare that his wife retained such a slender form. Her perfect body was now marred by a scar caused by Li Chang, and only breaking Li Changās arm seemed to have been letting him off easy; after all, a broken arm could be healed.
He regretted not carving two more scars on his back. At least it would have taught him a lesson.
"Well, thereās nothing in particular, I can eat anything, unlike when I was pregnant with Little Star. I didnāt have the same reactions then." Otherwise, she wouldnāt have gone two months without noticing.
She was really careless, having already had one child, yet she didnāt feel a thing.
"By the way, where is Shen Rong staying now?"
"Sheās staying at Uncleās house. The child is still young, and she canāt work now. In a year, my cousin said she could work alongside her, but Aunt is currently looking for a match for Shen Rong."
"...Looking for another match already after just getting divorced, isnāt it a bit too soon?"
Han Yi curled his lips. "Thatās always how Aunt is. Donāt mind her."
Lin Wan felt Han Yiās expression carried a trace of sarcasm.
But Lin Wan didnāt ask more, knowing how Aunt was.
Lin Wan originally thought Han Yiās leave had ended, and he had to return to the army. But who knew Han Yi would say he still had half a monthās leave.
They hadnāt told Uncle Grandma about Lin Wanās injury, nor did they inform Lin Wanās parents.
Mainly out of fear of worrying them, as there was nothing major going on.
These days, the couple had been planning to visit Grandma at Uncleās house.
However, Grandma somehow found out about it and had Uncle bring her back.
"When I first met Li Chang, I felt he was unreliable. Who would have thought, after marrying, that heād actually turn out so. Right after the wedding, he caused trouble for your parents, squandered most of their money, and now heās targeting your brotherās household. Heās eyeing the factory. Last time, the lesson from the fight hasnāt sunk in, and now heās harmed Xiao Wan. I think this divorce was a good call."
When Han Yi brought Lin Wan and Little Star to the factory, they saw Grandma holding Shen Rongās hand, saying, "Granny, I understand. From now on, Iāll live well with my child. Please talk to my mom for me, I just got divorced, and I donāt want to remarry yet." Shen Rong half-knelt beside Han Ying, holding her hand, eyes red.
"Granny knows about this."
"Grandma," Seeing that they had finished talking, Lin Wan hurried in with Little Star.
Han Ying was delighted to see the couple arrive and quickly embraced Little Star to give her a kiss.
Little Star sweetly called, "Great-Grandma."
Grandma was in good spirits today, especially seeing Han Yi. Han Yi hadnāt been back for almost two years, and she missed this grandson of hers.
Now being transferred to Z City, every meeting was not easy.
"How long can you stay here this time?"
"Half a month," Han Yi replied, looking at Grandma, whose hair had more white strands than the last time, feeling uneasy inside.
"Good, good, good. Spend more time here with Grandma during these days."
"Yes, I will."
The whole day, their family stayed at the factory with Grandma.
Shen Rong left after lunch with her child.
In the afternoon, Lin Wan took Han Yi to the factory.
Because Yin Peibai called her; she was currently at the factory. He said he got some ointment, which, when applied regularly, could remove scars.
Whether it would work or not, it was worth a try.
Han Yi took Little Star for a walk around the office building, seeing everyone busy, he didnāt want to disturb them.
