Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 356

Chapter 356: Chapter 356: Breaking His Hopes

"What? What do you mean?"

Mrs. Zhang became anxious when she heard this; she didn’t want to stay here for another moment.

Zhang Wenbin felt embarrassed, "Today I went to speak with Qin Juan and ran into her brother and sister-in-law, and they ended up kicking me out."

Only then did Mrs. Zhang notice that her son’s face, just like her own, clearly showed signs of being slapped, and his glasses were broken too.

"It’s too much, they’re really too much. Officer, did you see? They hit people too. Why only detain us? Hurry up and arrest that cheap woman, and also Qin Juan. She’s disrespectful to her in-laws, take her in as well. They are the ones who should be in jail, we are the wronged ones."

The officer stood aside, treating her words as if she were merely farting.

Furious, Mrs. Zhang hissed at Zhang Wenbin, "You go, go now and tell them, if they don’t come to apologize properly and take us back, you’ll divorce her."

Zhang Wenbin’s expression was complex, "I didn’t finish what I was saying; not only did they hit me, but they also told Qin Juan to divorce me."

"No way," Mrs. Zhang widened her eyes in disbelief.

Which sibling would want their sister to divorce and return to her parents’ home? Even if a brother agrees, his wife certainly wouldn’t want to support a divorced elder sister.

Not just a burden, if an elder sister gets divorced and returns home, wouldn’t the villagers humiliate them by breaking their backbones?

But looking at Zhang Wenbin’s expression, it didn’t seem like he was lying, and Mrs. Zhang clenched her teeth in anger.

"I’ve always disliked that wicked woman; she just wants to be against us. If not for them, would Qin Juan have become like this? I think Qin Juan is being influenced by them. Next time you find a chance to talk to Qin Juan alone, I don’t believe she really wants to divorce you."

Zhang Wenbin also felt that Qin Juan was led astray by her brother and his wife.

Before they came, Qin Juan would never have acted like this; it used to be whatever he said goes.

The officer, seeing them sprouting nonsense, urged, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. Currently, you are still in the detention phase and don’t have the right for visitation. If you have any information, you can provide it, but time is limited; your time is almost up."

Zhang Wenbin then remembered the pressing matter, nodded repeatedly, and leaning closer to Mrs. Zhang whispered softly, "Mom, I came to tell you, since you’ve taken responsibility for this matter, be sure to stick to the story. As long as I’m outside, I can find ways to save you and dad."

Today, he saw clearly that with Qin Yang and his wife involved, especially his strong-willed wife, this matter probably won’t end well.

Now it’s about minimizing the loss. It couldn’t be better if his parents could be released, but if someone really needs to take responsibility and go to jail, it could only be his parents. Otherwise, his future and the rest of his life would be over.

He believed his parents would agree with his decision; after all, they are old and in the future, everything would depend on their son. Only if he is well, will his parents have a good life.

Mrs. Zhang didn’t know what Zhang Wenbin was thinking and grasped her son’s hand, "When will you get me and your father out? I can’t spend another day here, I can’t eat or sleep well, it’s unbearable. I’m old and I can’t withstand this torment. That wicked woman wants to divorce you, right? If it comes to it, just divorce her. I don’t believe she can find someone better than you. Let them regret it."

"Mom, I can’t divorce Juanzi yet," he’s under an official assessment right now, and getting a divorce would have too great of an impact.

Mrs. Zhang felt as if she had been struck by lightning, "So we are just going to let them control us like this?"

Zhang Wenbin, helpless, "I’ll find a way. You and dad just bear with it for a few days inside."

Bear with it for a few days? Mrs. Zhang doesn’t want to endure another day.

.........

In a few days, Qin Yang gathered evidence of Zhang Wenbin accepting bribes during his tenure.

However, he himself didn’t have much power, and the bribes he accepted were just low-value gifts, not enough for a criminal sentence but likely enough for a disciplinary action at most.
