Chapter 1404: Each of us is holding each other's lifeline, let's compromise

Gao Pengju opened his eyes.

If the old man hadn't been mentioned, he really wouldn't have thought of a solution, but now that Tang Xiuyun mentioned the old man, it instantly reminded him.

He smiled coldly and said, "If you want to make a big deal out of this, it's not impossible."

"But don't forget that it was your daughter who pushed our old man down. My father and I can testify to this."

Tang Xiuyun frowned, turned her head and looked at Jiang Xue with a questioning look in her eyes.

Jiang Xue's face turned pale and her eyes became evasive.

Tang Xiuyun realized that this was true. She couldn't help but roll her eyes. She didn't expect her daughter to be so stupid.

Of course, this is her stepdaughter, so it is understandable that she is a little stupid.

If this woman was not stupid, she would not have been driven out of the Lincheng Military Region’s staff quarters in the first place, and she would not have been forced to marry Gao Pengju.

She took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Okay, great."

She turned her head and looked at Gao Pengju and said, "You said, was it she who pushed your old man down?"

Gao Pengju nodded, raised his chin arrogantly, and put on an unattainable look.

That means: Your daughter has admitted it, so you decide what to do.

Tang Xiuyun nodded and said, "Okay."

She turned around and said to Jiang Xue, "Go to the police station and turn yourself in now." Jiang Xue's eyes widened instantly and she looked at Tang Xiuyun in disbelief.

Tang Xiuyun said indifferently: "You are pregnant, but the pregnancy is not stable yet."

"When the old man passed by you, you were distracted by your pregnancy and pushed him in a panic, knocking him down."

"Although it was your fault, it was not intentional."

"Plus, if you turn yourself in, you will be criticized and educated at most."

"At most, I'll be detained for 10 days and then I'll be released."

When Tang Xiuyun said this, Jiang Xue's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, although she was the one who pushed the old man, she could definitely say that she didn't do it on purpose.

She had stomach discomfort at the time and suffered a miscarriage.

If she forced herself to say that she felt uncomfortable in her stomach and suspected that she was going to have a miscarriage, and that she pushed the old man in a panic, she could even say that she was a little confused and dizzy at the time, so she didn't see clearly at all and didn't mean to push the old man.

I just instinctively wanted to hold on to something.

I thought what I saw was a table or a wall or something like that.

Unexpectedly, he ended up pushing the old man down.

With that said, what good would it do even if I called the police?

Because at that moment it was a fact that she had a miscarriage.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xue looked at Gao Pengju proudly.

She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll turn myself in now."

After saying that, he turned around and left with his bag.

Gao Pengju was a little confused.

He looked at Tang Xiuyun in disbelief.

Only then did I realize how tall this woman was.

She has a sharp mind and many bad ideas, but most importantly, she is bold and ruthless.

Think about it too.

Jiang Xue was her stepdaughter, not her biological daughter. What was there to be afraid of?

It is obvious which one is more important compared to the family's 500 million.

At this moment Gao Pengju realized that he had miscalculated.

At this moment he was very panicked and wanted to call Jiang Xue, but he found that there seemed to be something blocking his throat.

I couldn't utter a word.

Just as Gao Pengju watched Jiang Xue walk to the door and was about to leave, a cold voice suddenly came from upstairs:

"Wait a minute."

Before the voice fell, Gao Yuanshan walked down quickly from upstairs.

He walked closer, looked at his son, and said indifferently: "My son is not in a clear mind, so there is no need to worry so much."

"Why don't we sit down and have a good chat."

Tang Xiuyun smiled indifferently, raised her head and glanced at him and said softly: "Why don't you let your son hold up the front when your in-laws come down earlier?"

"It's a pity that your son is not up to the task and can't hold up the family business."

"Now that you're down here, let's talk."

Gao Yuanshan looked at his son thoughtfully, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Gao Pengju remained silent and could only try to reduce his presence as much as possible.

Gao Yuanshan sat in front of Tang Xiuyun and began the difficult negotiations.

The negotiation lasted for more than an hour, and finally the two sides shook hands and made peace. The Gao family would not pursue the charge that Jiang Xue had overthrown the old man.

Gao Yuanshan decided to divorce Gao Pengju and Jiang Xue.

Because the Gao family does not have the money to repay the Jiang family now, they wrote an IOU for 500 million yuan, which can be repaid in installments.

If the 500 million is not repaid within three years, the construction company under the name of the Gao family will belong to Jiang Xue.

In addition, the Gao family also gave Jiang Xue two houses from their existing properties.

They are a couple who are divorcing, and they should divide the property equally. There is nothing wrong with that.

The 500 million yuan debt is just what the Gao family owes to the Jiang family, and it must be repaid.

The difference is: the Gao family no longer pursues the charge of Jiang Xue pushing the old man down, and the Jiang family gives up the Gao family's other properties.

They just took away two properties as a token of their appreciation.

After all, she has been married to Gao Pengju for so many years and has taken care of a lot of housework for the Gao family.

The Gao family obviously suffered a loss.

However, since Gao Pengju was able to do such a thing, it was only natural for him to take some money to shut people up.

Jiang Xue did not go to court to sue, and it was already very good that she emptied the entire Gao family.

The two sides are just exchanging gloves, no one loses, no one wins.

This is also the final solution that both parties can accept.

When Jiang Xue and Tang Xiuyun left Gao's house, neither of them said a word.

When they arrived at the car and Jiang Xue got in, Tang Xiuyun turned her head to look at her, then raised her hand and slapped her.

The crisp sound of slapping echoed in the car.

Jiang Xue was a little confused.

Tang Xiuyun said coldly: "I have disliked you since I married into the Jiang family. It's not because you are a stepdaughter, but because you are so petty."

"You were obviously brought up in a pampered environment, but you don't even have the slightest vision or perspective. You only care about the small space in front of you."

"No matter what Mr. Gao said or did, do you think you can get away with it if you kill him?"

"The moment you reach out and push towards the old man of the Gao family, not only will you fail to keep what's yours, but you will also destroy all the advantages you have in this family."

"I can't even understand the most basic pattern."

"You really make me look down on you."

After he finished speaking, he turned around, stepped on the accelerator and drove out.

Jiang Xue sat in the passenger seat, lost in thought.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through my mind.

Although Tang Xiuyun hit her and she was very annoyed and angry, she was right about one thing: if she hadn't pushed the old man that time, perhaps she would have had more bargaining chips when they divorced today.

Even if Mr. Gao had left the Gao family at that time, he would not have done anything too outrageous.

What's more, it was a feud between the old man of the Gao family and his two sons. What did it have to do with her?
