Chapter 10 – Wench (2)
Jiaojiao was three-month pregnant. If they didn’t get married soon, her stomach would begin to show. His children should be from Jiaojiao. They would for sure be pretty and smart. He should have never married this whale. If he hadn’t, he wouldn’t have to deal with this mess right now.
"I don’t want a divorce! No way!" shouted Shu Yan hysterically. "You are a horrible man, Ye Zhiqiang. If I hadn’t stayed and worked with you all those nights and days at the construction site, you would never have made it."
"Bullsh*t! It was my own talent. Shu Yan, do not test my patience. Sign the documents if you know what’s good for you."
"No! I would not sign them! Ye Zhiqiang,you are a monster!" Shu Yan sat and bawled at the end of the bed.
"Husband, are you done yet?" came a delicate voice from downstairs.
Shu Yan’s eyes dimmed. Damn this Ye Zhiqiang, he straight up just brought Li Jiaojiao with him. He was truly fearless.
Ye Zhiqiang acknowledged her.
Shu Yan almost had goosebumps from hearing the tenderness in his voice when he spoke to Li Jiaojiao. It was so different to how he had been talking to her.
"You better think this through. I have already decided to get a divorce, end of discussion." With another call from Li Jiaojiao, Ye Zhiqiang left with these words and took off.
Shu Yan looked up, and all the sadness was gone. She let out a harumph. She needed to ask Third Brother to hurry up. This couldn’t be dragged on much longer. She needed to move quickly.

Shu Jianyang was quite quick. Three days later, a not-too-old man came looking for Shu Yan and asked her to go with him to Hotel Rixin.
"Hotel?" Shu Yan’s eyes beamed. "Do we
"Yes, Third Brother said everything had been arranged." The man eyed Shu Yan up and down subtly and was a little disappointed. He had to fight a few guys for the opportunity to come and deliver this news. They figured that Third Brother was so handsome, so his cousin must be fairly pretty too. Well, the higher the hope, the higher the disappointment. This cousin of Third Brother…. He wasn’t even sure what to make of her.
What he thought was subtle, Shu Yan caught it all. She had a pretty good idea what this body looked like. It wasn’t worth getting upset over. The most important part right now was to go catch the couple in bed.
When she arrived at the hotel, Shu Jianyang was already waiting for her there.
"Ye Zhiqiang just walked inside; there’s no rush there. These were what I was able to dig up. You can take a look at them first," said Shu Jianyang as he handed over a few large document envelopes to Shu Yan.
Shu Yan gave him a look and took the envelope from him. Inside the first one, there were documents that showed was all of Ye Zhiqiang’s assets. He had a construction company, 4 houses, two trucks, and a sedan under his name. Perhaps, he figured that Shu Yan was ignorant, or that he was simply an over confident man, all of his assets were under his name, making it very easy for Shu Yan.
The other one envelope contained Li Jiaojiao’s hospital report. She wasn’t even trying to hide anything; she went straight to the People’s Hospital. She was 14-weeks pregnant, a little over 3 months. No wonder they were rushing.
"These are some of the pictures that we were able to get. Not a whole lot, but we should be able to get more shortly." Shu Jianyang lifted his chin and gestured Shu Yan to open up the next envelope.
There were pictures of Ye Zhiqiang having dinner with Li Jiaojiao, walking down the streets hand-in-hand, and also shopping for kid’s clothes. Ye Zhiqiang hadn’t done any of these things with the original owner because he felt that she was not presentable and never wanted anyone to see her.
These pictures alone wouldn’t be enough, but she trusted that once they have pictures of them in bed together, the physical evidence would be mounting.
"Is this where they always come to get together?" Shu Yan looked around the hotel. This was not a bad setup for ’92. She glanced at the price list, a deluxe room cost $50 a night. $50 in ’92 was more than $100 in 2019.
"Ye Zhiqiang bought a house for that woman, and it’s currently being remodeled. He has a standing room here and have been staying here for the most part," said Shu Jianyang as he watched Shu Yan’s look carefully. She showed no signs of emotions. She had truly given up on this man. Which was not a bad thing. Once she has money, she could…. get married again….
