After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1167 Cannot Accommodate Her Anymore

In the past, no matter what the Tan family did or how much money they asked for, the Xia family was not calculative about it. They saw it as only the loss of some worldly possessions which they could still afford.

After all, Tan Jing had not done anything out of line and she still treated Xia Wen very well. No matter what, the Xia family would render help to Tan Jing on account of Xia Wen. They always felt that she did whatever she did because she was left with no choice and that she would not have done it if it was not for her maternal family.

However, it was a totally different story now. Tan Jing had almost gotten Qiao Mei killed and even brought trouble into the family, almost wiping out all the Xia family members in one fell swoop. Their ancestors’ foundation was almost destroyed in one day. In order to save Tan Jing, Xia Wen had even gone to ask He Ning for help.

“You should divorce Tan Jing. This family can’t accommodate her anymore,” Xia Mao said as he looked at Xia Wen calmly.

Xia Wen also knew that this would be the outcome. However, Tan Jing had done all this in a moment of folly and she was also seriously injured at the moment. If he divorced her now, the Xia family would be despised publicly.

“Can we wait for her to recover before we get a divorce?” Xia Wen said.

“No! How can we wait! Even if Tan Jing’s injuries can heal, what about her drug addiction? It’s drugs we are talking about! If she can’t recover from that, do we have to take care of her for the rest of her life! Eldest Brother, wake up!” Xia He said agitatedly.

Xu Lan quickly reprimanded her, “It’s not your place to comment about your eldest brother’s issues. Xia Zhe, bring your sister back to her room. Don’t let her disrupt our discussion.”

Xia He felt gloomy as Xia Zhe grabbed her. As she walked away, she kept looking back, as if she wanted to make a case for Qiao Mei. She just wanted to see justice being dealt out. How could she be deprived of that?

Xu Lan was doing this for Xia He’s own good. Even Xu Lan could not make any decision on the matter concerning Xia Wen and Tan Jing. It was Xia Mao who had the final say. Xia He was an impatient person and what she said just now had already hurt Xia Wen. If she said anything more, it would probably cause discord between the three siblings.

To Xia Wen, it was his own flesh and blood on one hand and the love of his life on the other. He was in a dilemma and did not know what to do. The last time he spoke to Xia Mao, Xia Mao had already tactfully requested for him to divorce Tan Jing. However, Tan Jing had not caused that much trouble at that time and he felt that the problem was not at the point where they needed to get a divorce yet.

However, he had no choice but to let go now.

“I also agree with what your younger sister said. Our Xia family can only take care of her to this point. After she receives treatment for her wounds, get the divorce finalized and send her back to the Tan family. Let them take care of her. After so many years, she has already taken enough money from our family to give to the Tan family. After the divorce, let her leave without giving her anything,” Xia Mao said.

“Father! Can we give her that house in the countryside? She… I want to at least give her a roof over her head,” Xia Wen said.

“No, we can’t. It’s not that I don’t agree with your idea, but are you sure that Tan Jing will be the one living in this house if you give it to her? Will your decision help her or harm her?” Xia Mao asked.

Xia Wen slumped on the sofa. Xia Mao was right. At the end of the day, all Tan Jing’s assets would end up belonging to Tan Bo and Jiang Yi. Tan Jing would not have anything at all. It was best if he did not give her anything. Not giving her anything would be equivalent to giving her everything.

Seeing that Xia Wen did not talk back, Xia Mao took Xia Wen’s silence to mean consent. He said sternly to Xia Wen, “Stay at home with your mother and siblings during this period of time. Don’t worry about your work. I’ve already applied for leave of absence for you.”

Xia Mao only wanted Xia Wen to rest at home for now without doing anything else. Xia Mao did not even allow him to see Tan Jing and left this matter to Xia He instead.

Tan Jing did not receive treatment in Xia Fang’s hospital. She was sent to a clinic that had a very good relationship with the Xia family. The doctors there were very discreet and very capable. It was not an issue for them to save Tan Jing.

The doctors and nurses worked hard to treat the wounds on Tan Jing’s body. Although the wounds looked scary, they were actually not that bad.

“Where are my family members? Why aren’t they here yet?” Tan Jing asked weakly.

“Your current condition is very serious, so you’re not allowed visits from your family yet. Hold on for a while. Once your condition is stable, we’ll inform your family members,” the nurse said patiently.
