I held my head in anguish, crying my heart out.
After I cried myself out, I wiped my tears and stood up.
Looking at the mess in the room, I took a deep breath.
The house—I will get it back!
What they owe me, I will reclaim!
I found a professional investigator online; I needed evidence of their legal marriage before filing for divorce. In the meantime, I was living in a temporary rental with my son.
After two months, I received a detailed investigation report, but the results left me stunned.
Li Jingzhang and Wang Qin had been working at the Lin city after getting married, and my brother was also there, while my father-in-law lived alone in Qing City.
My brother had been making a little money fishing three days and resting two days, staying at Li Jingzhang and Wang Qin's home. Over time, the two unemployed individuals became involved with each other.
In the end, it was Li Jin who told my father-in-law about Li Jingzhang and Wang Qin's divorce; that was when Li Jingzhang found out.
Li Jin told my father-in-law that if he didn't force Li Jingzhang to divorce, he would never return home. For reasons unknown, Li Jingzhang agreed.
After their divorce, Li Jin took Wang Qin to marry elsewhere and never returned.
I thought this was already absurd enough, but the next piece of information shocked me even more.
It turned out that two-thirds of the remaining compensation from the demolition house was with my brother, Li Jin.
There was a total of 500,000, but my father-in-law told us there was only 200,000—each of us would get 100,000 while he actually gave 300,000 to my brother.
Moreover, my father-in-law received a pension every month.
His pension had been given to Li Jin for the past ten years.
The compensation from the demolition had already been discussed and agreed upon after confirming the amount.
Our family only received one-third.
They actually colluded to deceive me!
I was trembling with anger, unable to believe the reality before me. Before my brother returned, didn't my father-in-law always say how much he cherished Li Jingzhang? He even claimed that Li Jingzhang was his only son, and how difficult it had been to raise him from childhood. He lamented about having no income, that the old man couldn't earn money and relied on his children, easily becoming a target for disdain.
Every time I heard these words, I felt a pang of sympathy for him. Moreover, Li Jingzhang often mentioned that he was the only one by our father-in-law's side, insisting that he couldn't let the old man feel neglected. Each time I heard this, my heart ached for Li Jingzhang. He took care of our father-in-law with utmost dedication when he fell ill, never daring to slack off. He frequently gave him money, took him out for fun, and bought him food and necessities, fearing that he might feel sad or upset.
But now, I realized the truth. I had been nothing more than a pawn in their game all along. My efforts were merely a joke in their eyes!
When the court date for the divorce lawsuit was communicated to Li Jingzhang, he called me in tears. He confessed his wrongdoings but never mentioned his own cowardice; he only said he felt helpless. I calmly told him, "I am not the foolish old cow of the Li Family, nor can I match your foolish devotion and weakness."
Standing in the courtroom, I looked at Li Jingzhang before me. Once my closest companion, now he felt like a stranger.
"Ms. Qian Jiahui, please state your views on this case," the judge's voice echoed in the quiet courtroom.
I began to narrate my story calmly—from how I met Li Jingzhang to the details of our joint purchase of a house, leading up to that shocking discovery: the name on the property deed had been altered.
