Chapter 291: Chapter 291 Hu Yan’er Flies into a Rage!

Fan Wenbin was very clear that if he came right out and asked Hu Yan’er to sleep with Xu Qianli, not only would the plan not succeed, but he might also receive a slap in the face.

So he decided to take a detour and start by talking up the benefits, earnestly trying to lure Hu Yan’er.

After all, he was well aware that Hu Yan’er was ambitious. Over the years, she had paid close attention to her official rank, sparing no expense to make connections to boost her profile.

Now, using the promotion as bait might just work.

Upon hearing Fan Wenbin’s words, Hu Yan’er raised an eyebrow.

"Don’t feed me that nonsense, just tell me what you need my help with."

"All my money is squeezed dry, you wouldn’t be thinking of using me like some other officials’ wives in Qingshan Town, sending me to sleep with higher-ups for your gain, would you?"

"Fan Wenbin, why does your face look so bad, don’t tell me I’ve guessed right?"

"Good for you, Fan Wenbin, with a beautiful wife at home, you neglect and barely care about home, even your rare overnights are hasty and perfunctory, and now you even want to offer me to another man? How could you stoop so low? Are you even a man?"

Unable to contain her anger, Hu Yan’er slapped Fan Wenbin squarely across the face, the sound ringing out sharply.

Having been slapped, Fan Wenbin dared not even let out a peep but still kept a smile on his face.

Damn it, how could his own wife be so formidable? He hadn’t even said anything, and she had guessed everything. She truly was formidable.

This completely messed up his carefully planned persuasion. What now?

Hu Yan’er angrily demanded, "Speak up, say something, Fan Wenbin you bastard, have you got nothing to say? Speak now, or I’m divorcing you!"

"Please, don’t!"

"Wife, I’m kneeling for you, isn’t that enough?"

With a thud, Fan Wenbin knelt before Hu Yan’er.

His achievements today were because of the old county magistrate’s support and also because his wife’s family had some influence and wealth, paving the way for him to reach where he was.

The old county magistrate had already passed away, what would he do without his wife’s family’s support?

More importantly, if Hu Yan’er divorced him and exposed everything, could he even show his face again?

Right then, he decided to lay it all out and knelt before Hu Yan’er.

"Wife, you’ve misunderstood me, I hadn’t even thought of it."

"You know you are the one I love the most, otherwise, why would I have married you?"

"The reason why I’ve been neglectful is not because I want to, but because in this cutthroat world, you have to go with the flow. If I don’t blend in, keep myself out of affairs, who would associate with me, who would listen to me?"

"I’m really left with no choice."

Fan Wenbin tried his best to explain, hoping to calm Hu Yan’er down.

Hu Yan’er spat in his face.

"Bullshit!"

"You say you have to go with the flow because of the complexity of officialdom, but why could the old county magistrate stay incorrupt and still hold a high position? If not for his untimely death, he would definitely have been promoted to County Party Secretary next year."

"And Secretary Xu, back in his prime with only Xu Shuman as his girlfriend, never involved in any scandals, always keeping his integrity."

"And look at you, having the nerve to argue, I’m embarrassed for you!"

"Enough, cut the crap, just spit out whatever scheme you’re harboring. If it can really make you County Magistrate within ten years, I might consider it."

Hu Yan’er had long seen through Fan Wenbin. He was considerably lacking in character but not without some capability. Since he claimed he had a way to become County Magistrate in ten years, it wouldn’t hurt to listen.

Upon hearing there was an opportunity, Fan Wenbin was overjoyed and quickly recounted his plan, which involved Hu Yan’er sleeping with Xu Qianli so that he could use this to climb up Xu Qianli’s "legs" for good.

After hearing this, Hu Yan’er slapped Fan Wenbin with a smack.

"You bastard, you seriously thought about offering me up to exchange for a position."

"Shame on you for being a man, how could you do such a thing?"

"I think you’re worse than a dog, how did I ever blind myself to marry such trash!"

"Divorce, I want a divorce, I can’t live with a bastard like you anymore!"

Hu Yan’er furiously condemned Fan Wenbin and directly demanded a divorce from him.

Although she appeared extremely angry, Fan Wenbin actually found joy in it, because he knew very well that when his wife, Hu Yan’er, was truly angry, she wouldn’t act like this.

Even if she were truly upset now, she wasn’t completely furious.

In other words, there was a chance, at least a slight chance.

Seeing an opening, Fan Wenbin started to persuade Hu Yan’er, emphasizing how handsome and promising Xu Qianli was and how bright his future looked. He also talked about how great it would be for himself after his future promotions and insisted that he could ensure Hu Yan’er became the County Magistrate’s Wife, thoroughly trying to lure her.

Looking at Fan Wenbin like that and listening to his words, Hu Yan’er felt even more disdain.

To think that she had secretly had an affair with Xu Qianli last night behind his back, feeling a bit guilty about it.

Now, it seemed it was all needless guilt.

Such a shameless character, truly despicable.

To climb higher, he could do anything, even resorting to offering his own wife to sleep with Xu Qianli, reaching the pinnacle of shamelessness.

Hmph, despicable bastard, you don’t even know that your wife was already slept with by Xu Qianli last night, and who knows, might be carrying his child now!

After much persuasion, Fan Wenbin, his mouth dry from talking, smacked his lips and said, "Wife, what do you mean actually, express some stance, are you willing or not?"

Hu Yan’er glared furiously at Fan Wenbin.

"Willing my ass!"

"I am your wife, do you really think I’d be happy to sleep with other men?"

"But for the sake of your career, I am not unable to make a sacrifice."

"But I have a condition, I’ll only accompany Xu Qianli, don’t even dream of making me sleep with other men, including yourself!"

"Also, you must make a video recording and handwrite a statement saying that you asked me to do this voluntarily, so you can’t threaten or use it against me later."

"Lastly, if Xu Qianli is unwilling to use contraception and I get pregnant with his child, you must acknowledge it!"

Hu Yan’er put forth her reluctant conditions, waiting for Fan Wenbin’s response.

After all, she had already had an affair with Xu Qianli, so instead of rejecting Fan Wenbin, she might as well agree to his demands, which would make her future meetings with Xu Qianli more convenient.

Seeing that Hu Yan’er had actually agreed, Fan Wenbin was thrilled, and he readily agreed to her so-called conditions.

Anyway, he had never really cared about sleeping with Hu Yan’er, so he wouldn’t touch her from now on.

As for the child, he already had illegitimate children, not just one, and he didn’t care about whose child Hu Yan’er carried.

Seeing how readily Fan Wenbin agreed, Hu Yan’er despised him even more, her malicious mood flaring up, she suddenly said, "You must also agree to one more thing, if I actually do sleep with Xu Qianli in the future, you must wait outside the door!"

Fan Wenbin’s smile stiffened, allowing him to do other things was fine, but asking him to do something like this was too damaging to his dignity as a man.

But for the sake of his future, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
