Chapter 260 - 260 261 Zhang Chong

260: Chapter 261: Zhang Chong 260: Chapter 261: Zhang Chong For the Shen Family and Xingyue Group in Jinling, dealing with an ordinary family like Zhang Chong’s was incredibly easy.

Initially, Shen Zhigang and his spouse were against Shen Xingru being with Zhang Chong, but once Shen Xingru got pregnant, they stopped opposing.

The couple realized that it was indeed true that one should marry within one’s social class.

Once Zhang Chong got married, his true nature showed.

After Ye Qiu fully cured Shen Xingru’s illness, she decided to divorce Zhang Chong and pay the price for this mistaken marriage.

She was unwilling to pay any more.

Now, all she wanted was her son, Zhang Zhizhi.

As for Zhang Chong’s wealth, there wasn’t a single hair’s worth.

Zhang Chong had madly pursued Shen Xingru precisely because he knew she was the eldest daughter of the chairman of Xingyue Group, only after her money.

The marital assets between the two weren’t much.

In Jinling, they only had a luxury house and a few luxury cars.

Even if that luxury house was counted, it was worth tens of millions, but those few luxury cars, now put together, were worth at most two or three million, not much money at all.

However, Zhang Chong usually drove these luxury cars to nightclubs to mess around with women.

If he didn’t have those luxury cars, even if he looked like a pretty boy, not many women would like him or go to a hotel with him.

After Shen Xingru was discharged from the hospital, she never returned to that luxury house.

Instead, she had the nanny bring over Zhang Zhizhi to her parents’ home.

Zhang Chong still thought that Shen Xingru was only joking.

Soon after, he found out that Shen Xingru had decided to divorce him, and what’s more, after the divorce, Zhang Chong’s honorary position in Xingyue Group was gone as well.

He could truly be said to have nothing left.

Whereas he could go out every day to enjoy himself, if he divorced, he might end up sleeping on the streets.

The more Zhang Chong thought about it, the more frightened and angry he felt.

If Shen Xingru divorced him and gave him half of the wealth, that would still be bearable, but now, the Shen Family didn’t intend to split any assets with him.

If he were to fight the Shen Family in court, with their connections, status, and wealth, Zhang Chong wouldn’t stand a chance.

Shen Xingru had already notified him, preparing to go to the civil affairs office to divorce him.

Zhang Chong had always disagreed because he knew what it meant if he agreed to the divorce.

Shen Zhigang had long anticipated his reaction.

Without Zhang Chong’s consent, he sent him some photos—all were private pictures of him at nightclubs with other women.

Zhang Chong never expected that now all of them had fallen into the hands of Shen Zhigang.

If these photos got out, without a doubt, the divorce was imminent, and even if it went to court, he wouldn’t have much leverage.

Drained, lethargic, lacking vitality, with a weak waist and knees, feeble legs, easily irritated, pale-faced, and appearing around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, he wore a pair of black-framed glasses and looked almost like those pretty boys.

Zhang Chong had just spent the night at a nightclub and only now was driving back.

When he arrived back at the luxury house, it was deserted.

This place used to be home to Shen Xingru, Zhang Zhizhi, a nanny, and a chef.

The nanny and the chef had been hired by Shen Zhigang and his spouse to take care of Shen Xingru.

Firstly, because Shen Xingru would often fall ill, and secondly, because their grandson was only a few months old, neither Shen Xingru nor Zhang Chong could take care of him properly.

Now when Zhang Chong returned, he found that the utilities were cut off.

It was apparent this was done to force him out.

He knew that all this was orchestrated by Shen Zhigang and his spouse.

Zhang Chong took out his keys and entered the foyer, immediately furious.

He picked up the remote control and hurled it at the sixty-inch television.

That wasn’t enough to vent his anger.

He tried to remove the LCD TV from its cabinet, but failing to lift it, he kicked the television viciously.

The TV fell from the cabinet, and although not completely destroyed, its screen was shattered.

After all, these will soon no longer be mine, so what does it matter if I smash them?

Zhang Chong grew angrier the more he thought about it.

He picked up two vases each worth tens of thousands from beside him and kicked them furiously to the ground, only sitting down weakly once they shattered into pieces.

His symptoms of kidney deficiency were very obvious, and having done these things, he was now completely drained, sitting on the ground, taking off his black sunglasses, and lighting a Yellow Crane Tower cigarette.

He took a few satisfying drags, and his lifeless eyes showed an angry glare.

“If I can’t have it, nobody else can either,”

thought Zhang Chong to himself.

He moved towards the coffee table, picked up the palm-sized, sharply edged fruit knife from it, and hid it on his person.

He left the villa’s grand hall without locking the door, got into his BMW, and drove toward Xingyue Group.

After Shen Xingru recovered from her illness, she returned to the company to work, to forget those troublesome matters.

Originally the president of the company, she had handed over her responsibilities to her sister, Shen Yueru, because she didn’t have as much time after getting married; hence, she only held the positions of general manager and chief financial officer.

Even so, her work was now very busy, especially since she had been hospitalized with adult respiratory distress syndrome; many company affairs had fallen on her sister’s shoulders.

Now that she had returned to work as normal, feeling light without an illness, she sensed renewed strength throughout her body.

When she was discharged from the hospital, she had already texted Zhang Chong, telling him to bring his ID card and household registration to the civil affairs bureau for a divorce.

However, Zhang Chong had not replied, and Shen Xingru had long known what he was like.

Therefore, she was not in a hurry; she was just waiting.

She heard that her father had already had the utilities in the mansion shut off, and soon Zhang Chong wouldn’t even have a penny for his personal expenses.

She didn’t believe Zhang Chong would be able to hold out much longer.

To her, the proverb “For one day’s marriage, a hundred days’ grace” did not apply.

In Shen Xingru’s eyes, there was no longer any marital affection between her and Zhang Chong.

If it weren’t for the sake of her son, she would have considered divorcing Zhang Chong much sooner.

Moreover, she had given Zhang Chong plenty of chances.

It was unexpected that once Zhang Chong’s true temperament was revealed, it was difficult for him to revert to his old self, and he did not cherish the chances he was given.

“General Manager, there is a document here that requires your signature,”

said Shen Xingru’s secretary Xiao Ru, bringing a contract for Shen Xingru.

“Xiao Ru, put it aside and let me look at the document before signing,”

After Secretary Xiao Ru placed the document on the desk, Shen Xingru’s phone rang.

Picking it up, she saw that it was a call from Zhang Chong.

Ever since she married Zhang Chong, it seemed like the first time he had taken the initiative to call her.

Before they got married, when Zhang Chong was pursuing her, he would call her almost a hundred times a day.

The stark change before and after was apparent to the perceptive Shen Xingru, who understood what he was really after.

He thought that by marrying Shen Xingru and having a child with her, she would never divorce him.

But in reality, Shen Xingru felt Zhang Chong was delusional.

“Is it about the divorce?”

asked Shen Xingru directly after answering the call.

Xiao Ru heard Shen Xingru’s words and looked over.

Zhang Chong’s behavior at Xingyue Group was well known to almost everyone, from the bottom to the top management, as well as the company staff.

It was even said that Zhang Chong had toyed with several female employees; had he not been Shen Xingru’s husband, he would have been fired long ago.
