Oh no! The leader's young wife is demanding a divorce every night!

Lu Yanzheng froze, the soft touch of her lips lingering on his lips, and the desire he had just suppressed surged up again in his eyes.

This woman is really outrageous.

I knew she was doing it on purpose, but there was nothing I could do.

Seeing this blatant provocation, He Yingying was so angry that she trembled all over, her legs kept jumping, and she was going crazy.

The sound was so sharp, like a wildcat with its tail cut off, shrill and piercing.

"Xiao Re, you shameless slut, how dare you seduce my brother Zheng! I'll tear your face off!"

He Yingying, like a mad mother leopard, pounced on Xiao Re with her sharp claws aimed straight at Xiao Re's face.

Xiao Re raised an eyebrow slightly, not flinching at all, but instead slowly shrank behind Lu Yanzheng.

"Ah~ Honey, help!"

The next second, Lu Yanzheng stepped forward and stood in front of Xiao Re, protecting her completely.

He grabbed He Yingying's wrist, his body radiating a chilling aura and surging with malevolence.

"That's enough!"

"Stop making a scene. We'll talk about it when we get back!"

Lu Yanzheng led the two women, who were like oil and water, back to the small hotel, one in front and one behind.

The root cause of this conflict lies with He Yingying. Therefore, we must first address her issues before trying to change Xiao Re's mindset.

"Yingying, Xiao Re and I have already registered our marriage. Whether you accept it or not, it cannot be changed."

"If you are willing to come to the army with me, you can live peacefully with Xiao Re as my sister and live in the family compound."

"If you don't want to, I'll send someone to take you back after you get to the army. I'll explain the reasons to Grandpa and Father."

"As for the mistakes you made, I will tell my family everything."

Lu Yanzheng's words, each one cold and ruthless, shattered He Yingying's last shred of hope.

She slumped in the chair like a wooden doll, tears streaming down her face. The next second, she covered her mouth and sobbed uncontrollably. Then, she stood up like a madwoman, yelling and shaking her head at Lu Yanzheng.

"I disagree! I would rather die than agree!"

"What sister? I don't want to be your sister! I'm your fiancée! We're childhood sweethearts, our marriage was arranged since we were little! What right do you have to get a marriage certificate with her?"

"Go and divorce her! Divorce her right now! My grandfather and father have been kind to your family, and you were raised on my mother's milk. How can you betray me?"

"Even if you marry her, your parents and grandfather will not allow her to enter the house."

Lu Yanzheng's face was gloomy, and his heart was heavy.

This dilemma is more agonizing than fighting a war.

It is precisely because the He family has been so kind to the Lu family that this marriage issue is so thorny.

He didn't speak, nor did he know how to answer.

Xiao Re waved the pair of gleaming gold bracelets on her wrist, a nonchalant smile playing on her lips. She spoke with blatant provocation.

"Divorce is impossible."

"The reason I married Lu Yanzheng wasn't to steal your fiancé. It was to get justice for my father."

"Anyway, I've already taken the position of the commander's wife. If you're so capable, then go ahead and challenge me."

"At worst, I'll take it to the police station, to the military headquarters, or to a military court. I'm not afraid of any of that."

"Ideally, we'd strip your brother Zheng of his military uniform and ruin his future. That would make me even happier."

"Because I didn't come here to get married, but to seek revenge."

He Yingying's expression suddenly changed drastically, her whole body froze instantly, and the madness in her eyes was instantly replaced by panic. She was so frightened that she took half a step back.

Xiao, that vixen, doesn't care about Zheng's future, but she does.

Brother Zheng worked so hard to earn his military merits and rise to his current position; how could he let this vixen ruin it?

Lu Yanzheng was equally shocked.

Although he knew that Xiao Re's purpose in approaching him and marrying him was not pure, he was still somewhat angry to hear her say these words.

My heart feels like it's blocked with cotton, dense and suffocating.

His tone also became cold and heavy.

"Xiao Re, what will it take for you to give up?"

"Tell me, what are the terms of the divorce?"

Xiao Re looked up at him; his clear, cold eyes were deep and still, as cold as a deep pool in a glacier.

She gently stroked the gold bracelet on her wrist, a faint, cold smile playing on her lips.

"Commander Lu is the smartest."

"This is what negotiation should look like."

Xiao Re slowly straightened up, his gaze sweeping over He Yingying, whose face was pale, before returning to Lu Yanzheng, filled with a strong sense of control and oppression.

"She cut off three of my dad's fingers, I want 300,000!"

"Three hundred thousand?"

Lu Yanzheng gasped. This woman really dared to ask for such an exorbitant amount.

These days, even a military commander might not have 300,000 yuan in his household.

Although the Lu family has a deep-rooted background and has been engaged in business for many years, making them a wealthy family, they can only come up with a maximum of a little over 100,000.

Three hundred thousand? Even if you dug up your family's ancestral graves, you might not be able to raise that much.

He Yingying was so shocked that her face turned pale, and she almost jumped up from her chair, shouting back in a shrill voice:

"Three hundred thousand? Are you robbing me?"

"Are your dad's fingers made of gold? They're not worth that much money!"

Xiao Re's expression remained calm, without the slightest ripple, as if he didn't want 300,000, but was just talking about something trivial.

Her fingertips slowly traced the cool gold bracelet, her voice soft and calm, yet carrying an undeniable ruthlessness.

"My father's hands are used to heal and save lives. Every year, he saves hundreds, if not thousands, of lives from the brink of death."

"Tell me, is human life worth anything?"

Xiao Re's eyes turned cold, and each word he uttered was like a sharp blade piercing through him.

"You burned down my family's clinic. Do you know that my family's medicine shop has hundreds of thousand-year-old ginseng, dozens of hundred-year-old lingzhi mushrooms, as well as rare medicinal herbs passed down from our ancestors, unique medical books, and peerless ancient prescriptions. Isn't every single one of them priceless? Three hundred thousand is just a drop in the bucket. I've already given you a bargain."

"If you're willing to compensate, we can discuss this properly. If not, I'll expose everything Commander Lu did to me, and everything you, He Yingying, did to my father, to the higher-ups."

"Let's see who suffers the greater loss!"

Xiao Re's words were like a cold iron chain, tightly gripping the lifelines of Lu Yanzheng and He Yingying.

They have no choice but to agree, whether they want to or not.

Lu Yanzheng's expression was complicated, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart, and his throat tightened and became hoarse.

After a long pause, a low, muffled sound finally escaped.

"Okay! I promise you."

"I don't have that much money on hand right now. Once I've raised 300,000, we'll get a divorce."

Since Lu Yanzheng agreed to the divorce, He Yingying had nothing left to make a fuss about.

The biggest problem now is raising money.

She had already waited for Lu Yanzheng for five years, and didn't mind waiting a little longer.

As long as Brother Zheng doesn't have this woman in his heart, sooner or later, she will become Commander Lu's rightful wife.

She glared at Xiao Re with resentment.

"You must keep your word; you can't go back on your word!"

"certainly!"

If she could get 300,000 yuan, then the revenge would be worthwhile, and she would no longer bother Lu Yanzheng.

After all, she hasn't finished university yet.

The school only approved a one-year suspension of study with continued student status, and it was only after the teachers went to great lengths to help secure it.

She wouldn't risk her future for a lousy man.
