Chapter 167 Slap
Chapter 167 Slap
The early morning sunlight shone obliquely into the courtyard through the window, giving the gray yard a layer of golden color.
Lou Xiao'e got up from bed early in the morning. She was wearing a washed-out Dacron shirt, her hair was tied up with a red string, and her eyes were bloodshot. She stood in front of the mirror, looking at her haggard self, and couldn't help sighing.
Today was the day she and Xu Damao were going to get a divorce. After all this trouble, she could finally get rid of this man. Thinking of this, Lou Xiaoe smiled bitterly. She must have been blind to marry Xu Damao.
After packing up her things, Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath, opened the door, and prepared to call Xu Damao. Before she even reached the door, she heard a burst of discussion coming from the yard.
"Hey, did you see that? Qin Jingru came out of Xu Damao's house early in the morning again!"
"That's right. They haven't even gotten married yet, but they're already living together. How shameless!"
"If you ask me, Qin Jingru and Xu Damao are of the same kind, neither of them is a good person!"
Hearing these comments, Lou Xiao'e felt as if she was stabbed by a needle in the heart. She knew that these words were mostly said to her.
"Why are you looking at me? Hurry up? Why are you dawdling? Do you want me to wait for you?" Xu Damao's impatient voice came from the room, interrupting Lou Xiao'e's thoughts.
Lou Xiao'e suppressed the anger in her heart, looked at Xu Damao coldly, turned around and walked out of the yard.
On the way to the street office, Lou Xiao'e remained silent.
"Lou Xiao'e, what's your attitude? I haven't even started to think you're a burden to me, but you're putting on airs first?" Xu Damao yelled in dissatisfaction.
"Xu Damao, you still have the nerve to criticize me?" Lou Xiao'e finally couldn't help it. "For so many years, I have given everything for you and this family. Don't you know what I have done?"
"What have you paid? Don't you just have a little money at home? Let me tell you, I've married into a rich family now, and I don't care about your little money at all!" Xu Damao said disdainfully.
Lou Xiao'e was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Xu Damao's nose and was speechless for a long time.
"What? You are speechless? Let me tell you, with your condition, if you leave me, can you find another man who wants you?" Xu Damao said proudly.
Lou Xiao'e couldn't bear it any longer, she raised her hand and slapped Xu Damao hard.
The sound of "pop" was particularly harsh in the quiet street...
This slap was like a switch that stopped time. All the sounds around disappeared, leaving Xu Damao covering his face and looking at Lou Xiaoe in disbelief.
"You...you dare to hit me?!" After Xu Damao reacted, he jumped and pointed at Lou Xiaoe, his eyes full of ferocity, as if he wanted to eat her alive.
Lou Xiao'e sneered, "What's wrong with beating you? I've wanted to do this for a long time! Xu Damao, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself, who the hell do you think you are! I was really blind to think you were a reliable man!"
"You stinky bitch! I've been serving you well for so many years, and you're still not satisfied? If it weren't for the fact that your family has some money, do you think I would be willing to marry you?" Xu Damao roared angrily.
Lou Xiao'e just felt sick. For so many years, she always thought that although Xu Damao was a little narrow-minded, he was still somewhat sincere to her. Now it seems that this man is simply a scumbag who treats her like a fool!
"Don't make yourself sound so wronged. Don't you know how much benefit you have gained from me? I'm telling you, Xu Damao, from today on, we are done with each other. From now on, you go your way, and I go mine!"
Lou Xiao'e was too lazy to look at Xu Damao again and turned away.
"You...don't go!" Xu Damao panicked. He didn't expect that Lou Xiao'e would actually dare to divorce him and even hit him. This made him lose face in front of everyone.
He chased after her, grabbed Lou Xiao'e's arm, and said viciously: "If you don't make your point clear today, don't even think about leaving!"
Lou Xiao'e shook his hand off and looked at him coldly, "What do you want me to say? That I regret marrying you? That I deserved to be deceived by you?"
"You..." Xu Damao was choked by her words and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"I tell you Xu Damao, I am no longer the Lou Xiao'e who you can manipulate! I want to divorce you now, and it doesn't matter whether you agree or not!" After saying this, Lou Xiao'e left without looking back.
Xu Damao stood there, watching Lou Xiao'e's back as she left, his face looking terribly gloomy.
"Xu Damao, why are you doing this? Lou Xiao'e has had enough of you, why don't you just let go? Do you really want to make a mess of everything?"
A voice came from the side. Xu Damao turned around and saw that it was his third uncle Yan Bugui.
"What's it to you!" Xu Damao replied unhappily. He was angry now and didn't want to listen to anyone.
"Hey, kid, how can you talk like that? Third Uncle is doing this for your own good! Look at you, you are in a difficult situation now, how embarrassing!" Yan Bugui advised earnestly.
"What do you know!" Xu Damao pushed Yan Bugui away and turned to walk in another direction.
He just didn't believe it. Without Lou Xiao'e, he would still not be able to find a woman? There were so many women in this courtyard who wanted to climb into his bed!
Xu Damao was furious and walked out of the backyard. When he passed the middle yard, he ran into Qin Huairu coming back from outside with a basket. Qin Huairu was wearing a pink floral shirt and blue pants that were washed pale. Although her clothes were simple, they could not hide her mature charm.
Xu Damao's heart moved. Although Qin Huairu was a widow, she had become more feminine after being tempered by life over the years. Coupled with her pair of expressive eyes, there were countless men in the courtyard who were interested in her.
Thinking of this, Xu Damao was angry. Why could Sha Zhu win Qin Huairu's favor, but he, Xu Damao, couldn't? He just couldn't believe it. Without Lou Xiaoe, he couldn't even handle a widow?
"Huai Ru, are you back from shopping?" Xu Damao stopped Qin Huai Ru with a smile on his face, as if he was not the one who had just quarreled with Lou Xiao'e.
Qin Huairu didn't want to pay any attention to Xu Damao at first. Everyone in the hospital knew what kind of person this man was. But then she rolled her eyes and thought about how Sha Zhu had been a little cold towards her recently, so she came up with an idea.
"Yes, Xu Damao, where are you going?" Qin Huairu deliberately tried to get close to Xu Damao.
"Hey, don't mention it. It's all because of that bitch Lou Xiao'e who insisted on divorcing me. Tell me, this woman, how could she not know how to live a good life?" Xu Damao pretended to be a victim and began to complain to Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu sneered in her heart. This Xu Damao was really good at acting. It was obviously his own fault, but now it became Lou Xiaoe'e's fault.
