In fact, it could be said that it was because Feng Li repeatedly forgave and gave Tang Jian chances that he would think a verbal apology would restore surface-level peace each time. In reality, he had almost stopped apologizing, getting angry, sleeping it off, and acting as if nothing had happened, ordering Feng Li around. Feng Li was also frustratingly passive – as long as Tang Jian spoke to her nicely and didn’t get angry, she would be thankful.

She still hoped to persuade Tang Jian and Feng Li to part amicably, so she softened her tone and advised: “Tang Jian, I was also wrong before. I tolerated your bad temper too much, which may be part of the reason your temper got worse. But today, I can no longer tolerate this situation.”
Tang Jian saw that Feng Li was truly determined to divorce, and his expression suddenly turned fierce. “You think you can get a divorce? Go ahead and try. But don’t forget about the hand injury. If I sue you for intentional harm…”
“What will you do?” Yu Yi didn’t buy his threat at all.
Before coming, she had studied the legal system of this time and space. First, Tang Jian had no evidence that she had broken his hand. When both spouses have injuries, it’s usually handled as a domestic dispute rather than intentional harm. Second, although Tang Jian had resources at the police station, knowing Feng Li’s understanding of him, this person was very concerned about saving face and would never let the station know he was injured by his wife.
Tang Jian was blocked by her statement and growled angrily: “If you dare to propose divorce, I have ways to make your life miserable!”
Feng Hongwei, who had been silently listening, became angry hearing this: “Tang Jian, you’re a criminal police officer. How can you speak of breaking the law like this? When I agreed to Li marrying you, I hoped you would be happy and stable together.”
But no matter how you argue, you can’t use violence. She’s your wife, not a criminal. How could you lay hands on her?!”
