In the past, Xu Lan did not fulfill her duty and responsibility as a mother. Now, she must protect her children well and not let them suffer.


    "Alright, Xiao He still has some financial issues with the Kong family, right? Let me handle this matter," Xia Wen said with a smile.


    He was best at dealing with such things. Once he found out other issues rted to the Kong family, they would never be able to make aeback in this lifetime. He would get back all the money that the Xia family had spent on them.


    "Get a divorce, Xia He. Stay in the capital and don''t worry about anything else. If you don''t like it here, you can go somewhere else to take a break," Xia Mao said.


    Seeing how the situation had changed from everyone objecting to her getting a divorce in the beginning to protecting her and supporting her now, Xia He felt that it was good to be home.


    The Kong family''s mother and daughter only reached their home at noon the next day. Xia Mao''s guards insisted on sending them into the neighborhoodplex before they were willing to leave. Along the way, many neighbors came to congratte Old Madam Kong.


    "Oh my, how impressive. Your inws even arrange for people to send you back personally," the neighbor said as he pointed at the people in military uniforms outside.


    Old Madam Kong cared about her reputation and could only brace herself and say, "Isn''t that true. They''re worried that it''s not safe for us toe back on our own and made special arrangements for someone to send us back."


    "How lucky! It''s so good to be able to marry the daughter of a rich family in the capital. I''m so envious," the neighbor said.


    "That''s because my son is so capable. Otherwise, why would she be willing to marry him? Back then, it was my daughter-inw who insisted on marrying into our family!" Old Madam Kong bragged.


    "Hurry up and go home. I hear that your son got promoted and would be rich!" the neighbor said.


    "I''m off! Come to our house for dinner another day." Old Madam Kong pulled Kong Li home happily.


    As soon as they entered the house, they saw Kong Lu sitting on the sofa with a dark expression. There was a piece of paper in front of him. They were illiterate and only saw a big red stamp on it. They thought that it was Kong Lu''s promotion papers.


    "Has my son been promoted!" Old Madam Kong said excitedly.


    "Yes," Kong Lu replied expressionlessly.


    He had taken the initiative to apply to work in the hignds. Although it seemed like a promotion, it was actually a demotion. He had always been a mediocre staff in the army. Due to his rtionship with the Xia family, his career path was smooth and no one dared to offend him.


    Out of the blue, the leader had called him into the office early this morning and given him a piece of paper with the words "Divorce Agreement" written on it.


    It was stated that as the Kong family had been abusing and ndering Xia He for a long time, and even hit her sometimes, Xia He had the right to unterally apply for an end to this marriage.


    Xia He was also a soldier, being in the military art troupe. She had a military rank in the army and her rank was not lower than his.


    He had thought that by returning Xia He the money for Xia Fang''s television, he would be able to appease her and she would not divorce him. He did not expect his mother and sister to barge into the Xia family''s house and even smash things in their house.


    Not only did he lose his wife, but he also lost his job and his house had been taken back. In order to show his sincerity, he took the initiative to apply to work in the Hignds Force.


    That ce was located in high altitude where oxygen was sparse all year round. It was not a ce that ordinary people could go. The environment was very harsh and there was not even a phone there. They could only rely on people to send messages physically.


    It was precisely because of the harsh environment that the people who were transferred there would get promoted within a few years. However, no one wanted to go. If they went, they would never be able toe back.


    "That''s great! Then did your sry increase too!" Old Madam Kong looked at Kong Lu expectantly.


    In her eyes, it did not matter what Kong Lu did. The only important thing was money. The more money he earned, the more money he would have to hand over to her.


    "Money, money, money. All you know is money. Do you know that Xia He has divorced me because of what you did! What you''re holding is the divorce agreement! Who asked you to go to the capital to look for the Xia family! In the past, the Xia family did not do anything because they were unwilling to be so calctive with us. Do you really think they''re that easy to bully!" Kong Lu roared.


    Old Madam Kong slumped back in her chair weakly. She did not expect Xia He to be so heartless and make a decision so quickly.


    She did not know anything about unteral divorce or promotion in the government sector. She just wanted money.


    "I… I just want to ask Xia He toe back… Who knows that the woman would be so heartless…" Old Madam Kong said softly.
