There is a happy inn in the capital.

Chapter 69 Two Dogs Kneel

Li Shuchen nodded: "You did a good job. Let him come and drive her away. Aunt Zhang will never, ever go back to that hellhole."

Grape: "Mmm"

Night fell quickly, and Li Shuchen washed up and went to sleep.

I was woken up by noise downstairs this morning. Who is it? Disturbing my sleep so early in the morning! Do they know how uncomfortable it is to not get enough sleep? Huh?!

Frustrated, Li Shuchen pushed open the window, bleary-eyed, and shouted down, "Stop making so much noise! You're disturbing my sleep. If you want to make noise, go somewhere else. Don't bother me. I know martial arts!"

After Li Shuchen finished speaking, he was about to close the window and go back to bed when a familiar voice came from inside.

"Li Shuchen, you're the one who ruined my family! If you have the guts, come down here and confront me face to face!"

Li Shuchen opened his eyes and looked downstairs carefully. Tsk, it was Wang Ergou!

Skills? Of course Li Shuchen is skilled; she's incredibly skilled.

Li Shuchen tidied himself up, quickly went downstairs, and arrived at the inn's entrance.

Aunt Zhang happened to be with Li Shuchen.

As soon as Wang Ergou saw Aunt Zhang, he immediately put on a pitiful act: "Rou'er, come home with me, I can't live without you."

Aunt Zhang said righteously, "Wang Ergou, we've already divorced, so we have no relationship now."

Wang Ergou lowered his head and muttered, "Divorce? Divorce!"

Then she raised her head and glared fiercely at Li Shuchen, saying, "It's because of you, it's because of you that Rou'er and I are getting a divorce."

This made Li Shuchen laugh, and Li Shuchen was about to retort...

Aunt Zhang replied first, "Wang Ergou, don't make unfounded accusations against others. You only agreed to divorce my wife back then because of Shu Chen. I managed to get a divorce, and she gave me a chance to live again. She's my great benefactor. Show some respect to my benefactor."

Everyone in Beijing knew about this, and onlookers all criticized Wang Ergou.

"You've abused your wife for years, and she divorced you because of her. You even framed Miss Li. You're shameless!"

"Exactly, he was beaten twenty times and imprisoned for a month for assaulting someone, and he doesn't learn his lesson at all."

"Serves him right, he deserves it."

To everyone's surprise, Wang Ergou didn't argue with the crowd after hearing this. Instead, he knelt down with a thud and kowtowed in the direction of Aunt Zhang.

He kept repeating, "Rou'er, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. I will definitely change this time. I will never hit you again. I will treat you well, only you, and serve you with all my heart."

I won't mind that you can't have children. It doesn't matter if you can't have children, I don't care. We can adopt a child. I'll go out to work every day to earn money to support you and the child, and give you and the child a good life.

Please come back with me, Rou'er, I beg you.

Aunt Zhang was already used to it. She had almost died once before escaping that hellhole, so how could she possibly go back now?

He solemnly declared, "My life is now like that of a god. Why would I give up such a blissful existence to live a life of misery? No matter what you say, I will not go back with you."

Wang Ergou kowtowed repeatedly, crying with snot and tears streaming down his face, and the crowd grew larger and larger.

Some voices are already leaning towards Wang Ergou.

"Wang Ergou is so pitiful. He has already repented, so why not give him a chance?"

"His tears were so sincere, perhaps we should give him another chance."

"How can Rou'er not feel sorry for him at all? They were once a loving couple."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ergou's eyes flashed with cunning. Success was near; the good days were coming.

Li Shuchen said calmly, "Wang Ergou, you're trying to morally blackmail Aunt Zhang, putting her in an awkward position and subjecting her to criticism, while you keep saying you'll treat her well. Is this how you treat her well?"

If I'm not mistaken, even if Aunt Zhang really goes back with you, you'll still treat her the same way as before, beating and scolding her, making her work tirelessly to earn money to support you, while you just lie in bed all day, expecting to be waited on hand and foot, right?

Wang Ergou continued to argue, "No, I really will be good to Rou'er, please everyone, you must believe me."

Li Shuchen raised his voice and said, "Everyone understands the saying that it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Aunt Zhang has already given him chances, and he hasn't changed in three years. Do you think he'll change in just a few months? He must be trying to play the victim to kidnap Aunt Zhang and go back to continue his carefree life."

Can we let him succeed?

Crowd: "No, absolutely not!"

"Wang Ergou, get out of here!"

Li Shuchen delivered another fatal blow: "Wang Ergou, you always complain that Aunt Zhang can't have children, but haven't you seen a doctor yourself all these years?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ergou looked at Li Shuchen in disbelief: "What do you mean?"

Li Shuchen's lips curled into a smile: "What do you mean? Don't you know perfectly well?"

Wang Ergou collapsed to the ground, utterly defeated. How did Li Shuchen know? He had never told anyone, keeping it a secret for so many years, and now it was all out in the open. He couldn't accept it, muttering, "How could she know? How could she know?"

As for how Li Shuchen knew, it was because Wang Ergou kept shifting the blame onto Aunt Zhang, and she sensed something was wrong. She tried to trick Wang Ergou, but unexpectedly, she managed to get the truth out of him.

Seeing Wang Ergou's appearance, the crowd was certain that Li Shuchen was right, and they all began to speak up.

"It's actually their own fault for not being able to have children, yet they keep blaming others for not being able to bear them."

"That kind of person is terrifying; I really hope I never run into one."

The people who had just spoken up for Wang Ergou said angrily

"Pah, what a load of rubbish! We even spoke up for you, and now we've almost been made the bad guys."

"Thank goodness Miss Li pulled us back. If Aunt Zhang had really fallen back into that hell because of us, we would have suffered for the rest of our lives."

Li Shuchen said to Wang Ergou, "Why aren't you getting out of here? Do you want to continue making a fool of yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ergou staggered to his feet and walked away. Some people, truly enraged, threw vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at him. "What kind of people are these? They're disgusting!"

Li Shuchen pulled Aunt Zhang aside: "Are you alright, Aunt Zhang?"

Aunt Zhang replied, "I'm fine, I'm just worried that Miss might be affected."

Li Shuchen laughed and said, "What impact could it have on me? Just you wait and see. We're going to be a hit these next couple of days. The inn is getting a lot of visitors, so let's get ready to welcome them."

Li Shuchen: "Grape, go buy some candy and distribute it to the guests at the inn. Tell them they were frightened, and this is a small token of the inn's appreciation."

Grape: "Yes, Miss."

Li Shuchen returned to the Sanbao Hall and didn't even bother to sleep.

With his left hand, he picked up the pen and began to craft his sentences.

Wang Ergou suddenly appeared today.

"Noise in front of the inn"

"Begging his ex-wife to get back together"

His ex-wife would certainly not respond.

"Clearly, I'm not good enough."

My ex-wife won't come back.

"Then they blamed Shu Chen."

"I feel that Shu Chen is sowing discord."

"Only blames others and not others"
