Chapter 7 Compromise

Looking at the shredded divorce agreement in the trash can, the eyes of Song Jia and the others twitched fiercely.

Who would have thought, just as they were persuading Song Bingyun.

This fool, he actually dared to tear up the divorce agreement right in front of them?

And to tell Song Bingyun that their third wedding anniversary was coming up, and he wanted to give her three big gifts?

Big gifts?

With you, a good-for-nothing fool, what kind of big gifts do you want to give?

Did you leave some of your drool when being foolish?

Bang!

Song Miao suddenly slammed the table and stood up, angrily pointing at Tang Yi, "Foolish Tang, how dare you! Who gave you the guts to tear up the divorce agreement?"

The entire Song Family couldn't accept it.

Since when did a fool dare to spout nonsense in front of them?

All of them stared at Tang Yi with hostile expressions.

"Young Master Yun knew you were going to sign the divorce agreement tonight."

Liang Rulan stared coldly at Tang Yi and Song Bingyun, "Your father had already promised Young Master Yun that he would announce your divorce at tonight's celebration banquet."

"By then, all the socialites of Jinling will know you're single again, and you will soon marry Young Master Yun."

"But Bingyun you..."

The more Liang Rulan spoke, the angrier she became, her whole body trembling slightly, "Why won't you listen to your mother's words?"

"Tell me, did you instruct Tang Yi to do this?"

In Liang Rulan's mind, a fool couldn't possibly do such a thing.

Therefore, the only possibility was that Song Bingyun had instigated Tang Yi behind the scenes.

Song Bingyun was completely shocked and took a while to react. Ignoring her mother, she turned towards Tang Yi and said, "Thank you!"

Three years!

Having been married for three years, this was the first time Tang Yi had brought up their "wedding anniversary."

Three big gifts meant that he would make up for the previous two years as well.

Thinking about this, her beautiful eyes could not help but fill with mist, and all the grievances in her heart finally erupted.

Right after graduating from college, her father, for the sake of the family, forced her to marry a fool picked up from the street.

For the family, she had to succumb.

As soon as the three-year period ended, just as she was about to divorce Tang Yi, she was treated like goods and sold to the Yun Family by her own family.

In the Song family, was she a person or a piece of merchandise?

"Dad, mom, brother, sister, what exactly am I in your eyes?"

Song Bingyun held back her tears, her eyes moving from one person to another, finally resting on Song Tieli, "Dad, do you still remember what you said three years ago?"

Song Tieli trembled all over, his face filled with guilt, not daring to meet his daughter's gaze.

"Bingyun!"

Liang Rulan's eyes reddened, she took a deep sigh, and said, "We are also doing this for your own good, don't you understand our good intentions?"

"Mom is right, the stature of the Yun family in Jinling is not to be underestimated." Su Hao said, "Young Master Yun is even known as the top bachelor of Jinling, what a great opportunity this is."

"A fool and the top bachelor of Jinling, isn't the choice obvious?" Song Bingyu was full of incomprehension.

"Indeed, it's a very good choice."

An abrupt voice resonated once more, "Rather than selling your daughter for glory, why not strive to become Jinling's number one family yourself. Isn't that an obvious choice?"

Tang Yi!

Song Tieli and the others looked at Tang Yi again.

All were surprised and angry, unable to comprehend what was wrong with Tang Yi tonight.

He had spoken more tonight than he had in the past three years.

In the past, he wouldn't even speak; even if he was humiliated and beaten, he would just stand there drooling stupidly or hide behind Song Bingyun, shivering.

"Tang, this is our family affair, shut your mouth!" Su Hao could no longer tolerate it.

"What is up with this fool tonight?" Song Bingyu also furrowed her brow deeply.

Song Bingyun's eyes turned towards Tang Yi.

Tang Yi stood by her side as if he was there to protect her.

This scene suddenly stirred a complex feeling in Song Bingyun's heart.

For three years, whenever she encountered someone bullying Tang Yi, she would always pull him behind her and protect him.

Today, the roles had just been reversed.

Could this fool actually be protecting me now?

"Dad, you're a seasoned player in the business world, can't you understand this simple logic?"

Tang Yi looked at Song Tieli, "Even if Bingyun and I get divorced and you marry her off to Yun Chutian, can you guarantee that Yun Chutian will treat her well for a lifetime? Can you assure that the Yun Family will definitely look after the Song Family's interests for Bingyun's sake?"

"The business world is like a battlefield, and in my opinion, it's better to rapidly strengthen oneself than to spend all day thinking about how to cling to others' coattails."

"Collaborating with the Xie family is the ideal opportunity. If they want to settle in Jinling, they must break through somehow, and the Song Family can help them with that."

"Working with the Xie family means both families will be in the same boat, and the Song Family can use this chance to grow rapidly."

Song Miao looked surprised, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Whether I'm spouting nonsense, you all know in your hearts."

Tang Yi's gaze was profound, like a starry sea, "One's strength is always more solid than so-called backing."

Upon hearing this, Song Tieli's face was full of shock.

Could these words really have come from a fool?

And he had to admit, what Tang Yi said hit the nail on the head.

But it was hard for Song Tieli to accept that he was being advised by a fool.

The rest of the Song Family felt the same way.

They agreed with the principle, but absolutely couldn't stand being advised by a fool.

This was an insult!

"Could it be that these words were taught by Young Master Xie?" Su Hao thought for a moment, then blurted out subconsciously.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

That's it!

It must have been Young Master Xie's teachings.

"It's not surprising that someone from a notable family could make a fool become smart," Song Bingyu muttered under her breath.

At this moment, all the members of the Song Family understood that these words had awakened Song Tieli.

"Don't worry!"

Tang Yi spoke again, "I've said that I would give my wife three grand gifts."

"The first one, from now on, I will never let my wife be bound by a mere marriage contract!"

"The second one, by this time tomorrow night, I will secure the collaboration with the Xie family. At that point, please respect my wife and let her make her own decisions about her matters."

"Of course, if I can't do it, you won't need to kick me out, I'll leave by myself."

"The third one—"

At this point, Tang Yi's gaze softened as he looked at Song Bingyun, "I'll give you a surprise when the time comes!"

Everyone was stunned!

Was this fool truly foolish, or was he pretending to be?

The more they thought about it, the more confused they became.

"Hmph!"

Song Bingyu looked at Tang Yi with disdain, suddenly sneering, "Dad, Mom, big sister, can we take the word of a fool seriously?"

"Fine, I'll assume he's not a fool."

"But how is it possible to negotiate a collaboration with the Xie family in just one day? Isn't that a daydream?"

"To me, this 'fool' isn't just foolish now; he's gone mad!"

"There are madmen like that in mental hospitals, some are even trying to level the Bohai Sea!"

"Exactly!"

Feeling an extreme contempt for Tang Yi, Su Hao wondered why Young Master Xie specifically asked to meet him, and why he was chosen to take charge.

Why not himself?

There's only one day left!

Is that even possible?

Even Song Bingyun questioned it, clenching her fists tightly.

For the first time, she felt the warmth of being protected.

"Good! There's only one day!" After staring at Tang Yi for a long while, Song Tieli finally made up his mind, "If you can't do it in one day, roll out of the Song Family on your own!"

"Tie Li!"

"Dad!"

The people of the Song Family couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

Song Tieli waved his hand mightily, his expression stern, silencing everyone.

The Song Family's rules have always been strict, and as the head of the family, Song Tieli had absolute say!

"Dad, rest assured, this is the second grand gift I'm giving to Bingyun," Tang Yi said with a smile, nodding, "Not for you, but for my wife, haha."

Song Tieli's mouth twitched.

Just as others were about to say something, the butler walked in.

"Family head, Young Master Yun has arrived, he says he's here to give a gift to the eldest miss..."
