Chapter 1739: This Distribution Is Unfair
Ning Shu didn’t know what Bai Yiqiao was thinking. She actually had the gall to ask to split evenly. Splitting evenly? Like hell! Not even in her dreams!
Ning Shu asked Fang Yong directly, “What happened? Aren’t you satisfied with the distribution?”
“If you have anything to say, let’s talk it out between us women. Why ask Fang Yong?” Bai Yiqiao said dissatisfied.
Ning Shu: …
She couldn’t even talk to Fang Yong?
“The division was decided by me, my brother, and Fang Yong.” Ning Shu sneered. “You don’t even know anything. What are you here for?”
Bai Yiqiao pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and said mildly, “Chen Ermei, can’t we just talk things out calmly? We can’t solve anything if you insist on being sarcastic.”
Ning Shu also mildly said, “I can clearly see that you didn’t come over to solve any problems. You’re here to demand repayment as if our family owes you. From the start, you’ve been the odd one here.”
Bai Yiqiao suppressed her exasperation and said calmly, “I just think this distribution is unfair.”
“This distribution was approved by your husband. Now you’re running over here to make a fuss. Is this how you respect your husband? Is it only fair if you get all the money?” Ning Shu said serenely.
Bai Yiqiao was shocked when she heard what Ning Shu said. Earlier, she was just worried over the reason why the Chen family got a large share of the money. She suspected that Fang Yong deliberately gave Chen Ermei more money.
But what was she doing now? She actually gave Chen Ermei and Fang Yong more opportunities to interact and talk with each other.
She had always avoided repeating any of her past mistakes that could lead Fang Yong and Chen Ermei to get together the way they had in their previous life.
When she was a concubine in her previous life, she was careful not to allow herself to be attacked by the madam of the house, while still earning favor with the man they were married to. It was extremely stifling.
In her previous life, Bai Yiqiao was very proud and arrogant, that was why she decided to become a concubine of an influential family. She had to go through a lot of suffering to learn how to behave. In the end, however, she still fell to ruin at the hands of the madam of the house.
On the other hand, Fang Yong was a man of dignity who also loved her tenderly. Being married to him in this lifetime made Bai Yiqiao let her guard down after some time. After all, she was the main wife and her husband even stayed with her every night.
Bai Yiqiao felt that she should think of the bigger picture. In the future, Fang Yong would become a high-ranking official and he would definitely take other women.
What Bai Yiqiao wanted was to grow old together as a couple. She had had enough of the pain of being a concubine and the pain of fighting over a man with other women in her previous life. She never wanted to have that kind of experience again in this life.
It was too trivial to fight over a few dozens of taels. In fact, Bai Yiqiao already had a bit of money that she made by doing business with other people.
She ran a restaurant that specialized in foreign cuisines, such as barbecues and hot pots, that were both novel and delicious.
Not to mention, coming here was the same as snubbing Fang Yong.
When did she lose her ability to read people?
Bai Yiqiao finally understood. Because Fang Yong got involved with Chen Ermei over the ginseng matter, she couldn’t help but become flustered, which caused her to lose her usual cool.
No woman could stay calm facing the woman who was her husband’s wife in their previous lives. Or at the very least, Bai Yiqiao couldn’t.
Especially after getting married, she found that Fang Yong was vastly superior to the greasy, pale-faced man she married in her previous life. In addition, knowing that Fang Yong would be brilliant in the future made her naturally fall in love with him.
The more she cared, the more scared she was of losing him. Bai Yiqiao was afraid that there might be some fate between Fang Yong and Chen Ermei.
Bai Yiqiao glanced at Fang Yong. Fang Yong’s expression looked normal and she couldn’t tell if he was angry. Bai Yiqiao said to Ning Shu, “Since Fang Yong agreed to it, it’s natural to divide it in this way. Fang Yong’s decisions are the decisions of the entire Fang family.”
Fang Yong smiled at Bai Yiqiao. Bai Yiqiao felt a little pleased with herself. Men loved their reputation. If you could protect a man’s reputation and satisfy his pride, all your problems could be solved easily .
