My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day

Chapter 613: 613, where did the wild chicken come from?

“You’re Brother Zhexi’s girlfriend?” Ming Hailan laughed exaggeratedly, “Where does this wild hen come from, thinking she can become a phoenix just by putting on a formal dress? This dress, bought from a street stall for a few dozen yuan, right? Would Brother Zhexi allow you to wear such an ugly dress? It’s rough and the threads are already loose, and you don’t even have a decent piece of jewelry!”

At this point, Xing Siqing came over pretending to act, “Hailan, you misunderstood, she really is Brother Zhexi’s girlfriend, she was sitting with us earlier.”

“What?” Ming Hailan snorted disdainfully, “Sister Siqing, you’re not fooling me, are you? Can someone like her catch Brother Zhexi’s eye?”

Xing Siqing awkwardly replied, “We met her when we went out for dinner last time, she works as a waitress at a restaurant, and she really is Brother Zhexi’s girlfriend.”

“Haha, that’s hilarious. So she’s a waitress after all, and she didn’t admit it earlier? I see, so she’s just a plaything for Brother Zhexi, right? Once the novelty wears off, he’ll definitely dump her. I knew it, how could Brother Zhexi be attracted to her!”

Ming Hailan sneered and launched into a tirade of insults at Bai Ruwei:

“Let me tell you, Brother Zhexi has had many girlfriends before, and each one of them was better looking and of higher status than you. But in the end, do you see anyone becoming a part of the Huo family? Is the Huo family a place for women like you?

You don’t even have a mirror to look at yourself. Where did this trash come from? You’re worthy of being Brother Zhexi’s girlfriend?

Brother Zhexi wouldn’t want you, let alone my aunt allowing you to become her daughter-in-law, and Huo’s grandmother would never allow you to become her granddaughter-in-law!

You’re delusional, a toad wishing to eat swan meat! You’re not attractive but you have grand ambitions!”

A barrage of insults came flooding in like a ferocious beast.

Ming Hailan vented all her pent-up frustrations on Bai Ruwei.

Do these lowlifes really think it’s that easy to enter a wealthy family?

I can’t touch Su Wanwan because she’s already married to Huo Jingshen, but I can’t reach you?

Bai Ruwei clenched her fists, not understanding what he had done to offend Miss Ming.

She’s not good at confrontations and all she could do now was bite her lip and walk away.

However, right after she took a step, her arm was grabbed again and a bottle of red wine was splashed all over her from head to toe.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”

The woman’s scream echoed around the entire banquet hall.

**

In a private rest room outside, Mingzhu was scolding her son, “Zhexi, did you lie to me when you said you had broken up with her?”

“Mom, it’s Valentine’s Day, can’t you stop arguing with me?”

“You’re arguing with me?” Mingzhu laughed, “So, you’re not listening to me, you want to be with her, don’t you?”

“Yes! I want to be with Xiaowei! I don’t care if you agree or not!” Huo Zhexi was now desperate.

He couldn’t understand why Mingzhu was so strict with Xiaowei when she never really cared about his other girlfriends before.

He felt that Mingzhu was prejudiced against Xiaowei and looked down on her background!

“Fine.” Mingzhu nodded, “If you want to be with her, from today onwards, don’t use my money!”

“Mom, what do you mean?” Huo Zhexi’s face changed instantly.

Mingzhu sneered, “I just want to see, if you really don’t have any money, if you’re no longer the son of the Huo family, whether she still wants to be with you.”

“Mom, can you stop doing this?” Huo Zhexi shouted in frustration, “From childhood to now, you’ve always been controlling me. Can’t you leave me some freedom? Is it really that hard for me to be in a relationship? Why are you making it so tense…”

“Knock knock knock,” the door was suddenly knocked on, and Mingzhu’s niece came in.

“What’s the matter?”

“Second aunt.” The niece carefully said, “There’s a Miss Bai, who claims to be Brother Zhexi’s girlfriend, and she’s having a confrontation with the third sister.”

Mingzhu’s face changed, and Huo Zhexi rushed out.

Meanwhile.

The banquet hall was in total chaos, filled with shouting and screaming.

When Su Wanwan arrived, she was almost shocked.

Ming Hailan’s dress was stained with wine and she was making a fuss.

But Bai Ruwei was in an even worse situation.

She was half-lying on the ground, covered in red wine from head to toe. Her hair, face, and neck were all wet. Her hair clung to her face, and wine kept dripping down.

The wet black material of the dress clung to her body, revealing her curves— she was utterly humiliated.

“You are really bullying too much!” Bai Ruwei shouted with tears streaming down her face.

After Ming Hailan splashed her with wine and pushed her out, she fell to the ground and twisted her foot in the process. The pain was so intense, she couldn’t even stand up.

“What exactly happened?” The voice of Madame Ming immediately rang out.

She was followed by a crowd of Ming family relatives, including the second senior lady of the Ming family and Madame Huo.

Upon seeing Bai Ruwei, she quickly went forth, “Who did this?”

Ming Hailan hurriedly began to complain hypocritically, “Granny Ming, Granny Huo, I was drinking with Siqing just now, and she purposely bumped into me, and even stained my clothes and shoes. I just mistook her as a waitress here and asked her to help me clean up. Who knew that she would lose her temper and start claiming that she is Zhexi’s girlfriend, insisting that I apologize and admit my mistake, otherwise, it would be disrespecting the Huo family. She’s so domineering and arrogant!”

At this moment, she had regained her little fairy-like demeanor from when she was playing the piano.

Madame Ming frowned.

She watched Huo Zhexi grow up.

This little rascal, being unlearned and muddled, has had many women wanting to be with him over the years, but they were all dissolved by Mingzhu in the end.

And looking at this Bai Ruwei, she had a simple and elegant appearance and attire.

Quite different from the other women in the past.

“Are you really Zhexi’s girlfriend?”

Bai Ruwei raised her head to look at Madame Ming.

Compared to the cordial and amiable image on the stage just now, her expression now was somewhat stern, with an imposing aura, those eyes sharp as two blades of ice.

Slightly panicked, Bai Ruwei answered softly, “Yes.”

“If you are, you are. If you’re not, you’re not. Why are you so timid when answering a question? Don’t you have any confidence?” Madame Ming spoke displeasedly.

She didn’t have any sons, but her status in the Ming family had never waned over the years. She was indeed a formidable figure.

She was kind and elegant when not provoked.

But at this moment, the younger generation were causing unnecessary trouble, especially at an occasion such as the anniversary of the Mingli Association, she was not in a good mood and her attitude was very firm.

When had Bai Ruwei ever interacted with seniors of this calibre?

Right then, she was so scared that her face turned pale and she couldn’t utter a word.

Only now did she realize that compared to Madame Ming, Mingzhu was actually quite kind to her.

“Xiaowei!” Huo Zhexi rushed in hastily, “Xiaowei, are you alright?”

Seeing his girlfriend drenched in wine, with her hair and face still dripping, he was so angry he felt like he would explode, “Damn it, what happened? Who the hell did this!”

“Was it you!” He glared at Su Wanwan.

Su Wanwan looked at him speechlessly, “Who did it, don’t you have eyes? Can’t you see?”

Huo Zhexi: “…”

Looking around fiercely, in the end, his gaze landed on Ming Hailan who was also stained with wine, “Did you bully my girlfriend?”

Ming Hailan quickly denied it. “No, Brother Zhexi. I didn’t bully her. I just mistook her for someone else. She was the one who started shouting at me! If you don’t believe me, ask Sister Siqing.”

Xing Siqing’s face turned pale and she quickly deflected the blame, “I’m not sure. I just came over not long ago.”

“You two scumbags…”

“Zhexi!” Mingzhu’s voice quickly intervened.

She marched over in her high heels, her face calm and composed.

Glancing at Bai Ruwei’s distraught appearance, she calmly commanded, “Zhexi, take Miss Bai to change her clothes first.”

“Mother…”

“Go!”

Huo Zhexi pouted and could only lead Bai Ruwei away first.

At this point, Madame Ming appeared somewhat surprised, “Mingzhu, is this girl really Zhexi’s girlfriend?”

Mingzhu let out a light sigh, “Mother, you are overthinking it. Zhexi is simply infatuated with this woman for now, once the novelty wears off, everything will be fine.”

Madame Ming put a hand to her chest and snorted coldly, “Zhexi is too naive and you as a mother don’t know how to discipline him? It’s okay for young people to have a relationship, but before confirming the status, shouldn’t you stop him from casually bringing her to a family banquet? Look at the mess now! Isn’t it like making a fool out of our two families, the Mings and the Huos, in front of outsiders?”

Mingzhu frowned slightly and could only lower her head to apologize.
