The Good Dad System (Arc 8) Chapter 64.2: After the Daughter Married Into a Wealthy Family (26)
“Besides, why did he shoot and post the video?” Pei Daijun’s usually gentle appearance became sharp. “Isn’t it because you, as a husband, did something improper in the office? After being discovered, he got angry and wanted to hit me first. After being stopped by my dad, he was so angry that he hit my dad again and injured him directly?”
“…I, I’m not…”
“Don’t make excuses. What’s the use? Excuses. Who is the one who really destroyed our efforts over the years? It’s not me, it’s not my father, it’s you, Mr. Sheng.”
“Okay, even if it’s my fault, don’t you think you’re too aggressive?” Facing his wife’s relentless approach, Sheng Junhao began to subconsciously make excuses, “Look at what you look like now? Don’t you understand that the overall situation is more important?”
“Wait.” Pei Naochun suddenly interrupted, he asked in confusion: “The overall situation? Why should my daughter consider your overall situation? Sheng Junhao, you have to understand, if you are good to my daughter, she will consider your company and your family for you. If you are not good to her, not only her, but even I will not hesitate to step on you even if I pass by.”
“I always call you a good son-in-law, not because you are so good to me, but because you make my daughter happy. Now you make her feel bad. In my heart, you are not even worth a fallen leaf on the floor.”
“I… I gave you so much money. If Daijun hadn’t married into our family, would you have been able to live such a good life?” Sheng Junhao found a point to support his argument. “You went out to travel, Daijun’s mother went to see a doctor, and Daijun bought those things on a daily basis. Whose money was it? Wasn’t it earned by my hard work outside?”
“Then why don’t you ask yourself, if it weren’t for Daijun, would you be able to take care of the family without any worries?” Pei Naochun laughed so hard that he almost pulled his leg. “I’m calling you Mr. Sheng now. You’re the first person I’ve seen in all these years who even has to calculate the money to give to your own parents-in-law. Just go and ask around, is it your fault that they can support their parents-in-law? Yes, we are better off than our relatives and friends around us.”
“Yes, I give you more. The alimony required by the law does not require this much!”
“Then I can pay you back. How many times have you transferred money over the years? I will sort out all the accounts and return to you how much Daijun’s mother and I have spent.” Pei Naochun spread his hands indifferently. If it was in his previous life, when his original body was old and only had rent to collect, there would be a little difference. But in this life, Pei Naochun had already made preparations clearly.
“Since I will return the money to you, why don’t you ask yourself how much you got from my daughter?”
“Do you still have to go? Besides, even if Daijun goes out to work, can she earn so much? What can she give?”
“Great.” Pei Naochun gave him a thumbs up in admiration. “President Sheng, you are also top-notch when it comes to turning your back on someone. My daughter didn’t rush to marry you back then. Your marriage was made possible because you two were in love with each other. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to go out to work. It was you, President Sheng, who persuaded her to stay at home and take care of the family for you.”
“Yes, every family is like this.” Sheng Junhao agreed as a matter of course, “…Even if I hire someone to take care of my family, how much money will it cost! There are servants at home, she doesn’t have to work!”
“…” Pei Naochun was overwhelmed by the other party’s shamelessness. “You compare your wife with the person you hired to take care of the family? Not only are you shameless, you are also blind. Our family is an ordinary family, and we would not treat our wives as nannies. But you, Mr. Sheng, are different. You found a wife and she will take care of the family for you. She will visit relatives and friends when they are sick, give gifts to attend weddings, and care about you on weekdays. She also has to socialize for you from time to time.”
He spoke a series of words, then happily drank the water glass on the table: “Before, they were called revolutionary partners, but now, everyone calls them husband and wife, and what about you, Mr. Sheng? I’m afraid you’re looking for a nanny with a monthly salary.”
“You want Daijun to be a good wife for you, to take the overall situation into consideration and do everything well, but you are calculating the money she spends in your heart – not to mention that I, as a father, know clearly that my daughter doesn’t spend more than you.” He clapped his hands immediately, fortunately his hands were not injured, “You have taught me a lesson today. Thank you for saving my daughter from suffering. Thinking of her being with someone like you for so many years, I, as a father, feel worried for her. What did she do wrong to have to deal with a bastard like you who is so heartless and ruthless.”
“Mr. Pei, anyone with a bit of self-control wouldn’t say what you said!” Sheng Junhao’s chest swelled with anger. If he hadn’t thought that he was here to solve the problem today, he might have started to curse again, “Besides personal attacks, what else can you do?”
Pei Daijun was so angry when she heard this that she clenched her fist, but her father grabbed her hand. She was devastated by the contempt between the lines of Sheng Junhao’s words – how could all the love and dedication over the years end up like this? Not only was she not taken seriously, but she was also trampled on by others. What was she?
“Yes, I have no manners.” Pei Naochun spread his hands, “Who can compare to President Sheng’s manners? He kissed and hugged a little girl in the office in broad daylight, and punched his father-in-law when he was discovered. Now he has to run to the patient’s ward and apologize repeatedly, saying that he has no manners.”
He turned to Lawyer Xie, who had been smiling awkwardly beside him, and said, “This…Lawyer Xie? I want to confirm something with you. Was it President Sheng who said just now that my daughter had destroyed the efforts of the two of them over the years?”
“This…” Lawyer Xie looked around, but got no hint, so he could only nod.
