Song Yi'an kept his word. The evidence he provided was just the beginning, far from the end. Subsequently, he reported and exposed some of Song Yunsheng's illegal and criminal acts during his operation of the Song Group. Song Yunsheng was not only responsible for a human life but also for serious crimes such as tax evasion and bribery. With multiple crimes combined, he would never be able to make a comeback in this lifetime.
After finishing the business here, Li Qiyu also left the capital and returned to the Li family.
The first thing she did when she got home was to take out her divorce certificate with Song Yi'an.
When Li Xiangping saw the divorce certificate, his face turned green. He frowned and invited Li Qiyu into the study.
"Xiaoyu, what are you throwing a tantrum for at this time? Do you have a pig's brain to divorce Song Yi'an now? Do you know what status he has?" Li Xiangping was so angry that he almost fainted several times, but Li Qiyu remained extremely calm.
"Dad, it was agreed long ago that we would get divorced."
"The agreement didn't mean you really had to get divorced. Can't you just coax him? Men are all soft - eared. If you just give in a bit, would he run away?"
A father teaching his daughter how to seduce a man was really a big joke in the world.
Li Qiyu looked nonchalant.
"You know very well that he has never really liked me. After I fell into the water back then, I also saw clearly that he is not the right man for me. Why should I cling to just one tree? I don't want to like him anymore. Now it's just right for us to let go of each other."
Hearing this, Li Xiangping felt a sharp pain in his head.
"Anyway, I don't agree."
"It doesn't matter whether you agree or not. I'm already divorced."
"Now go find Song Yi'an and tell him you were just impulsive and you still want to live a good life with him. Tell him this divorce is invalid."
Hearing this, Li Qiyu found it funny. Could a thing stamped by the Civil Affairs Bureau be reversed?
Li Qiyu sat down on the sofa and didn't budge.
"Don't even think about it. I will never remarry. If you're so keen on Song Yi'an's power and influence, you go marry him. As long as he doesn't mind an old man like you, I don't care."
"Li Xiyu!" Li Xiangping pointed at her with a trembling finger. "How could I have given birth to such a rebellious child like you!"
Li Xiangping was pounding the table and throwing chairs around, making quite a ruckus. Jiang Yongfeng, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, rushed in at the right moment.
Actually, when she first heard that Li Qiyu and Song Yi'an had divorced, her first reaction was shock, but she quickly figured it out.
Since Song Yi'an and Li Qiyu were divorced, and now Song Yunsheng was in prison, the engagement between Li Xichi and Song Yunsheng was null and void. Didn't that mean Xichi now had a chance to be with Song Yi'an?
So, Jiang Yongfeng was determined to seize this opportunity. She rushed in and pretended to hold back Li Xiangping.
"Alright, alright. This is the child's own happiness. Since she's made her decision, don't be angry anymore."
"Her own happiness? She's a member of the Li family. Her life is given by the Li family. The food she eats, the clothes she wears, and the confidence to show me a bad face all come from the Li family. As a member of the Li family, she has to do things for the Li family!" Li Xiangping was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out. His children were all disobedient. His son had divorced his wife and now had run off with her. Now his daughter was also getting divorced and letting go of a big fish. How could he be willing to accept this?
Li Qiyu finally understood how Li Xiyu and Song Yi'an had been forced together back then. In fact, this father, Li Xiangping, had always only cared about himself.
But she was not Li Xiyu. She had Li Qiyu's pride and the determination to avenge Li Xiyu.
"I can't do it."
"You!"
Li Xiangping was so angry that he threw a slipper at her. How could Li Qiyu let him hit her? She tilted her head and dodged it.
The fact that Li Qiyu dared to dodge made Li Xiangping even more furious.
"Go and remarry Song Yi'an. If you don't, I'll disown you as my daughter."
Li Qiyu's eyes lit up. Was there such a good thing?
She had been thinking about how to find an opportunity to bring this up, but Li Xiangping had actually said it himself.
That was really great.
However, she couldn't get carried away. She pretended to be very shocked.
"Dad, am I just a bargaining chip in your eyes? If I don't remarry Song Yi'an, I'm not even worthy of being your daughter?"
Seeing Li Qiyu's sad and hurt look, Li Xiangping thought he had finally grasped Li Qiyu's weakness and said, "If you still recognize me as your father, go and remarry Song Yi'an!"
"What if I say I can't do it?"
"Then get out of the Li family!"
Li Qiyu stood up abruptly. She picked up her backpack, opened the door, and walked out. Seeing her actions, Li Xiangping got a bit flustered.
"Li Qiyu, stop right there."
"Dad, I can never repay you for all these years of raising me."
Now it was Li Xiangping's turn to panic. He just wanted to threaten his daughter, not really let her leave home.
Wouldn't this mean losing both his son - in - law and his daughter?
Li Xiangping quickly wanted to chase after Li Qiyu, but suddenly he felt half of his body go numb as if electrocuted. He leaned on the table and couldn't move. Seeing this, Jiang Yongfeng quickly tried to support him. Li Xiangping pushed her away and roared angrily, "What are you supporting me for? I'm not dead yet. Hurry up and chase that dead girl. She can't be allowed to leave!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yongfeng quickly nodded and rushed out to chase Li Qiyu. By this time, Li Qiyu had already reached the door. Jiang Yongfeng trotted after her and grabbed her hand. She said anxiously, "Xiaoyu, stop throwing a tantrum with your father, okay?"
"He was the one who disowned me first. You were there too. He said it with his own mouth. How can you say I'm the one throwing a tantrum?"
Actually, Li Qiyu was secretly laughing inside. Today was really her lucky day. She didn't expect this to come with a bonus. To avoid any complications, she even planned to go to the police station later to handle the formalities for changing her household registration.
Jiang Yongfeng quickly said, "I think your father is not looking well. Why don't you go back with me and take a look?"
Li Xiangping had always been a bad person. A father who could push his daughter and son into the fire pit again and again, and even tried to kill his own daughter. Wasn't he just like a brute?
Li Xiangping had been living a pampered life for years. How could he be a match for the young and strong Li Qiyu? While they were tugging at each other, Li Qiyu had already stepped out of the threshold.
At this time, the servant in the family ran out in a hurry and said to Jiang Yongfeng and Li Qiyu, "Madam, Miss, it's bad. Mr. Li has fainted."
Hearing this, Jiang Yongfeng didn't care about Li Qiyu anymore. She let out a wail and quickly went back to check on Li Xiangping.
