Fuming with anger, they came knocking at the door

Zheng Youjun was both shocked and anxious.

"Nonsense!" he immediately roared, "That bastard used our money to buy the house—I'm going to find him!"

Although he didn't know how Xiao Ran got the money, but you divorced my daughter yesterday morning, and in such a short time, you managed to get 12 million?

So, this money must be marital property, and we're entitled to half of it! And you're a son-in-law living with us, your belongings are ours, too. So, these 12 million are all ours, rounding it up.

My son is getting married soon, and we need the money.

The old man suddenly burst out with astonishing vigor and darted out.

The two old ladies exchanged a glance and hurried out as well.

This was a big deal, not to be missed!

And as for Zheng Youjun, he ran all the way to Block 8.

It wasn't that he didn't want to run fast, but he could only run so fast.

Fortunately, it wasn't far. He quickly arrived and saw many uncles and aunties already surrounding the villa.

—Since it was a villa with a yard, everyone stood outside the yard, looking in through the fence.

"Oh, Lao Zheng!"

Seeing Zheng Youjun coming, everyone turned around, casting envious glances at him.

Tsk, there wasn't anything good about Lao Zheng's family, but they got lucky and actually found such a promising son-in-law.

"Congratulations!"

"Bought a villa, huh?"

"Amazing, we couldn't tell at all. So low-key."

Everyone chattered, but it didn't make Zheng Youjun feel the slightest bit happy.

In his eyes, the villa wasn't worth 12 million, at most 10 million, so Xiao Ran spent an extra 2 million!

Bastard, that's 200,000 from my family!

With a grim face, he walked forward. When he reached the outer gate, he pounded on the courtyard gate with force.

There was a doorbell, but people of his age were simply not used to using it.

Bang bang bang, urgent and fast, as if someone had died.

Xiao Ran thought it was Jia Yungui, but a glance at the monitor made him chuckle involuntarily.

It turned out to be Zheng Youjun.

Hmm, it seemed that news of him buying the villa had spread throughout the neighborhood, and Zheng Youjun couldn't resist rushing over.

He naturally had no intention of avoiding him, and he was determined to make Zheng Youjun's family envy, jealous, and regretful. How could he not take advantage of this opportunity!

He opened the door, walked through the yard to the courtyard gate, and then opened it.

"Bastard—" Zheng Youjun cursed and tried to go inside. Naturally, he didn't want to air his dirty laundry in public.

However, Xiao Ran stood in the doorway, preventing him from entering.

The old man grew even angrier, pointing at Xiao Ran's nose. "You used our money, and you dare to block me from entering?"

Xiao Ran chuckled. "Old man, don't forget, your daughter and I got divorced yesterday. The house I bought today has nothing to do with your Zheng family."

This news immediately sparked discussions among the onlookers. Some elderly men and women even stared at Xiao Ran with keen interest—divorced? Well, my daughter is still single. If she marries Xiao Ran, won't the whole family move into the big villa?

Zheng Youjun wasn't intimidated by Xiao Ran's words. He sneered, "Xiao Ran, do you think I'm stupid? You divorced Zheng Juan yesterday, so where did you get the money to buy the villa? Therefore, this is marital property, and half of it belongs to the Zheng family!"

It made sense. The elderly men and women who had just been swayed by Xiao Ran's argument now changed their expressions again. Yeah, if it's marital property, then indeed half belongs to the Zheng family. Instantly, the 12 million was cut in half. With only 6 million remaining, could Xiao Ran, with a net worth of 6 million, still have any clout?

Xiao Ran smirked. "When it comes to property division, it's based on evidence, not your baseless accusations! Old man, if you have a problem, take me to court. Now get out of here, or I'll call the police—illegally entering someone else's residence can get you detained for half a month."

The last two sentences were made up by him to scare Zheng Youjun. He had no idea if that was even possible.

But Zheng Youjun didn't know that and immediately stepped back in fear.

But could he just leave like this, with his tail between his legs?

No, he couldn't accept it!

He had already decided that the villa belonged to their family and wasn't worth 12 million. So, he had to assert ownership, renegotiate with the seller, after all, he had only paid the deposit and hadn't gone to the housing bureau yet.

This profligate Xiao Ran had lost 2 million in a day. He really wanted to beat him up!

At this moment, Lin Meiyin also rushed over with her grandson. After understanding the situation a little, the old lady sat down on the ground and began to wail. "Heartless little beast, you get rich and abandon your wife and children. You're not a good person at all!"

Although this was throwing mud at Xiao Ran, it happened to be true. Indeed, Xiao Ran got rich and got divorced, even abandoning his son.

People couldn't help but whisper to each other, discussing the matter.

Xiao Ran was waiting for this moment!

He wanted the Zheng family to be thoroughly disgraced, with everyone in the neighborhood denouncing them.

He calmly said, "Why did I get divorced? It's simple. Zheng Juan got pregnant with someone else's child before we got married. She married me just to cover up her pregnancy, treating me as a scapegoat. Zheng Youjun, Lin Meiyin, you've really raised such a shameless, deceitful daughter!"

"How did I spend the four years in your family?"

"When did you ever treat me like family?"

"You made me do chores all day long, throwing everything at me!"

"Even if I came back from work at 10 o'clock at night, you still made me do the laundry!"

"Heh, don't fucking talk to me about conscience, you're not worthy!" 

After these words were spoken, the crowd exploded.

Zheng Juan actually did something so despicable? The son who didn't fear life has no asshole?

Haha, Lin Meiyin dared to throw a tantrum in public, but ended up shooting herself in the foot.

Now, the reputation of Zheng Juan and the Zheng family will be completely ruined in the neighborhood.

Zheng Youjun and Lin Meiyin, the old couple, heard about this for the first time and didn't know what to say for a while. They felt extremely uncomfortable under the disdainful gazes of their neighbors, wishing there was a hole in the ground for them to hide in.

This is China. Getting pregnant before marriage and then finding a decent person to marry and raise the child as his own? It's the kind of thing that gets people pointed at.

After a while, Lin Meiyin reacted first, screaming hoarsely, "Nonsense! My daughter is such a good person, how could she do such a thing? Xiao Ran, you bastard, can you slander my daughter just because you're divorced?"

Zheng Youjun also reacted and rushed towards Xiao Ran. "I'm going to fight you!"

Don't fight. I'm still waiting to slice you into pieces after the disaster. If you die suddenly from a heart attack or something now, wouldn't that be a shame!

Xiao Ran forcibly pushed Zheng Youjun back. Even though he wasn't particularly strong, he was more than capable of dealing with a 60-year-old man.

"Heh, do you want me to reveal the name of the adulterer?" Xiao Ran said coldly. "Zheng Juan has been having an affair with that adulterer for a long time. I have many videos in my hands."

The last sentence was obviously a bluff, but how would Zheng Youjun and his wife know? Would they dare to bet?

If Xiao Ran were to publicly play those videos... then they would have to move to a different neighborhood, or else how could they face anyone?

"Let's go!" Lin Meiyin pulled her husband away. Seeing that Zheng Youjun still looked unwilling to give up, she whispered, "Call our son and daughter back and discuss a strategy."

"But Zheng Juan is still at work—" Zheng Youjun subconsciously said.

Lin Meiyin gave him a disdainful look. "With 12 million, who cares about work!"

Right!

Zheng Youjun followed her obediently.
