Zhang Jisheng had it all planned out. He thought he would first present himself as the victim, using his parents and relatives' ignorance of the truth to say that Qi Fenglian looked down on him for not being able to make money and was instigated by her brother and others to file for divorce.
He reckoned that if the issue blew up, Qi Fenglian would not dare to come back due to the judgmental eyes of their relatives. By dragging it out, and by sincerely admitting his mistakes, the subject of divorce would eventually fade away.
Zhang Jisheng calculated meticulously, yet he didn't realize that this move would only further infuriate and repel Qi Fenglian and her family, pushing the situation into an irreparable state.
They say that when a person acts foolishly, they truly become invincible. Zhang Jisheng was nothing more than a fool.
