Before he could witness the scene for himself, all kinds of images kept flashing through his mind. Many of them were figments of his imagination, but they were also what he was most afraid of happening.

By the time Xia Wen reached home, Tan Jing had already fainted and was on the floor. Liu Fen and Xu Lan were hiding in a corner and did not dare to make a sound while Luo Yu stood protectively in front of the two women.

Xia Wen automatically reached out to check Tan Jing's breathing. Fortunately, there was no sign of asphyxiation. When Xia Wen was still on the way, he had already contacted their family doctor. The doctor would probably arrive soon.

Xu Lan walked furiously towards the stairs and turned around to look at Xia Wen. "Come upstairs with me."

"Mother! Can it wait until the doctor arrives?" Xia Wen begged.

"No! Luo Yu is around to take care of her! She won't die! Come upstairs with me!" After saying that, Xu Lan walked towards the study angrily. Xia Wen followed behind Xu Lan helplessly. The two of them entered the study and closed the door tightly.

Xu Lan sat on the chair and stared at Xia Wen. In the past, she always felt that although she did not take very close care of her three children, she was still the one who birthed them and should more or less understand their temperaments and personalities.

However, it was only today that she realized she did not understand Xia Wen at all. During the past month, he had demonstrated only immaturity in the way he handled things and his behavior was completely different from how he used to be. He was even worse than a kid who had not stepped into society!

"When exactly are you going to divorce Tan Jing and send her back to the Tan family?" Xu Lan questioned.

"Soon," Xia Wen said.

Xu Lan smacked the table angrily and shouted, "I don't need this word 'soon'! How many times have you given me this word! I want you to do it tomorrow! I want you to divorce Tan Jing tomorrow and send her back to the Tan family! If she continues to pester us, then hand over everything we have to the police station and let them arrest Tan Jing!"

"Isn't this being too cruel to her…" Xia Wen said, feeling bad.I think you should take a look at

"You can't bear to do it! Don't tell me you want everyone in the family to clean up this mess for you! Are we overly tolerating you and Tan Jing! Xia Wen! Are you disregarding whatever your father and I say and not listening to your grandfather too! Do you think you're the head of the Xia family!" Xu Lan said furiously.

Xia Wen lowered his head and did not dare to look at Xu Lan. This was only the third time he had seen Xu Lan so angry.

The first time was when he insisted on marrying Tan Jing. The second time was when he wanted to use the family's money to help Tan Hu pay off his gambling debts. Even when Xia He insisted on marrying Kong Lu, Xu Lan was not so angry.nov?/?/o/?

"Why do you keep failing when it comes to this matter about Tan Jing? What are you hesitating about? Will you only be satisfied if our entire family dies together with the Tan family? She can even come to my house to confront me and almost cause a big scene. Qiao Mei is coming back soon. Do you want Tan Jing to continue harming Qiao Mei?" Xu Lan said.

"No she won't! I'll keep an eye on her!" Xia Wen said immediately.

"How can I believe you! What did you say when you sent Tan Jing to the countryside! How did Qiao Mei end up in the operating theater! Have you forgotten everything! How can I trust this vicious woman! Especially now that she's delirious! Xia Wen! What exactly do you want! What exactly do you want from the family!" Xu Lan said as she looked at Xia Wen.

She could not help but teared as she became emotional. She really could not understand what was happening with Xia Wen, how Tan Jing managed to bewitch Xia Wen to this extent, and why the Tan family wanted to harm her children and her family.

All the pent up grievances that she had suffered silently for so many years suddenly erupted. Xu Lan turned her back to Xia Wen and wept silently.

Xia Wen actually did not want all this to happen either. He just… just felt that he would owe Tan Jing too much if he did this. Although the Xia family had fulfilled the Tan family's material wishes, perhaps even giving them hundreds or thousands times more than what they deserved, Xia Wen still owed Tan Jing a lot when it came to emotions.

"I hear you. Mother, don't worry. I'll handle this matter tomorrow," Xia Wen said gently.

"You'd better keep your promise. Take the car and leave with Tan Jing tonight. Qiao Mei's whole family is coming back tomorrow. Don't let them bump into one another," Xu Lan said to Xia Wen while trying to control her trembling voice.
