The man sitting on the sofa suddenly stood up. He stretched out his long arms and pulled Xin Yu into his embrace. The man's handsome, thick brows furrowed. There was a hint of confusion in his brows. "Why won't you give me a chance? Do you not believe that I really like you? Or do you not believe that I can change those bad habits of mine? If I told you that Lan Ruoran and I have already broken up, would you believe me? "
"…"
"Xin Yu, I've actually never tried so hard to woo someone before. Moreover, this woman is my wife. Sometimes, when I think about it, I feel that I'm especially funny. She was originally supposed to be my woman, but in the end, I was the one who had the hardest time wooing her. Of course, I deserve it. Who asked me to not know how to cherish you in the past? But now, I want to cherish you. "
His slender fingers reached over and lifted Xin Yu's chin. His deep gaze was filled with sincerity, but it was hard for Xin Yu to accept. His deep voice was actually very pleasant to the ears, but to the current Xin Yu, it was also the last thing she wanted to hear.
"Do you really not feel my sincerity at all? I don't know how to woo a woman, but I think that as a man, I want to tell that woman that I really want to be with her. Then, all I have to do is to pamper her, right? So now, I really want to pamper you. Don't talk to me about divorce. I really don't like to hear those two words. I've told you before that I won't divorce you. Xin Yu, I want you. I want you very much. "
The handsome face in front of her was getting closer and closer. Xin Yu's heart thumped wildly. She suddenly realized what Lu Yihan was trying to do. His thin lips were less than a centimeter away from her. She instinctively moved her face to the side, and the man's lips brushed past her cheek.
Lu Yihan was speechless.
"Don't be like this."
Xin Yu took a deep breath and placed her hands on Lu Yihan's chest. Her voice did not tremble at all and was extremely calm. "Yihan, we've known each other for five years and we've been married for five years. However, we've only been together for less than five months. Our marriage was a mistake. I still stand by my words. No matter what you think, I can't maintain this broken marriage with you."
"Is Qin Fangang really that good?"
Lu Yihan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she tightened her grip on Xinyu's waist, "Just one Qin Fangang, is it worth it for you to be so firm? Are you keeping your chastity for that man? "
"Lu Yihan, even if it wasn't for Qin Fangang, you should know that I would still divorce you. When I first proposed to divorce you, it had nothing to do with him. The idea of divorce didn't come to me just now. I had long … "
"You wanted to divorce me long ago? Then why did you marry me five years ago? Leng Xinyu, I've already told you. The Lu family isn't a place where you can enter and leave as you please. "
"Five years ago … I was still too young. So many things happened at that time and I was already at my wit's end, so I could only make that choice. I admit that people have to pay the price for their mistakes, and I've already paid the price. To be honest, Lu Yihan, having me as your wife for the past five years has not affected you at all. Why do you have to do this?"
"It didn't affect me in the past, but it does now."
Lu Yihan pressed Xin Yu's entire body into his embrace. The man's firm chest instantly pressed tightly against her soft body. When he breathed, his masculine breath sprayed onto her face, but Xin Yu only felt that it was unfamiliar.
That wasn't Qin Fangang. She wouldn't be moved. She would only be afraid.
In the past, Lu Yihan had tried to rape her in this very room. And it wasn't the first time he had such thoughts. There were several times. Xin Yu was still afraid of being alone with him. She bit her lip and reached out to push Lu Yihan away forcefully. Her clear eyes were already tinged with fear.
Lu Yihan clearly saw the emotions in her eyes. He suddenly felt defeated and heartbroken.
It was as if there was an invisible barrier erected around her body. Was there really no way for him to pass through?
He wanted to kiss her lips, but she was so afraid that her face turned pale.
Lu Yihan suddenly laughed softly, but it was completely self-deprecating. He simply let go of Xin Yu and took two steps back to sit on the sofa. As soon as Xin Yu regained her freedom, she immediately took two steps back to maintain a safe distance from him.
"You're right. We've known each other for five years and been married for five years, but we've only been together for less than five months … So I still can't accept this. If you can give me five months and get along with me properly, perhaps you'll change your mind."
He reached out and lit a cigarette for himself. He raised it to his lips and took two puffs. The white smoke curled around the man's handsome cheeks and seemed to cover most of the expression on his face. "… Do you really want to divorce me that much? Five months? How about that? If you still insist on your current decision after five months, then I'll definitely fulfill your wish. "
Xin Yu's heart trembled slightly. She lowered her eyes.
— Five months.
Five months wasn't a short time, but it wasn't a long time either. If Lu Yihan's words were to be believed, then she would regain her freedom after five months. But if he went back on his word by then …
Xin Yu was a little uncertain about Lu Yihan. The two of them didn't have many chances to negotiate. Moreover, he was just making empty promises without any evidence. If he really didn't agree to it when the time came, what could she do?
He had wasted five months of his time in vain …
She now felt that every minute and every second she spent with Qin Fangang was precious. Although this thought was shameful, humans were like this. When they wanted something, they would selfishly grab it regardless of everything else.
…
Xin Yu carefully weighed the pros and cons in her heart. Finally, she said, "I have something to show you."
Lu Yihan looked nonchalant. He leaned over and flicked the ash off his cigarette, indicating for her to continue.
Xin Yu didn't give herself a chance to hesitate. She turned around and picked up her bag from the sofa. She tightly gripped the document in her bag and took it out. She handed it to Lu Yihan.
"… I've had this for a long time. I've been wondering if I should take it out, but I didn't. It wasn't because of you, but because of Dad … I always felt that if I were to divorce you, the person who would be the most apologetic would be him, not you. Yihan, to be honest, I really think that it's best if we don't hurt each other. We're not the closest people, but we've been husband and wife in name for five years. No matter what you think of me, to be honest, I don't dislike you. I've never hated you. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness … That's why I brought this over today. I can't bear living like this anymore. "
Lu Yihan took the document from her hand. Xin Yu watched him open the folder and read through it page by page. Just like when she first saw this document, her expression became increasingly ugly. However, her voice became calmer and calmer.
"I don't think there's any need for the five months you mentioned just now because this possibility no longer exists between us. I'm returning this document to you. I know that the project you're working on hasn't been officially signed yet because the Lu Clan stopped working with the government three years ago. That's why I'm willing to lend you a hand. I still have the land in B City. I'll transfer it to you unconditionally, including the five percent of the Lu Clan's shares. I won't take any assets under your name. As long as it belongs to the Lu Clan, I'll give it all to you. I only have one request: I hope you can sign your name on the divorce agreement. "
Lu Yihan's expression was extremely strained. The cigarette between his fingers accidentally slipped out and landed on his trousers. In an instant, it burned a hole in his pants. The scarlet cigarette butt swiftly touched his skin, but he didn't notice. He abruptly got up and strode towards Xin Yu.
"Where did you get this?"
"…"
"Leng Xinyu, I'm asking you. Where the hell did you get this?"
Xinyu was shocked by his appearance. In the past, Lu Yihan would indeed be fierce to her, but he would never be like this. It was as though he wanted to eat her alive. His eyes turned red in an instant, and there were even traces of blood vessels in them. The originally handsome man had now turned into a fiendish demon.
"I'm asking you a question. Answer me! Leng Xinyu, where did you get this? You're using this to threaten me? "
After waiting for Xin Yu's reply for a long time, Lu Yihan suddenly thought of something in his rage. He raised his hand and fiercely threw the document at Xin Yu's face. Although it was a soft piece of paper, it still made Xin Yu groan.
"Qin Fangang, is it? It's Qin Fangang again. Haha, he really has some tricks up his sleeve. He handed this to you so that you can threaten me and make me sign the divorce papers? "
Lu Yihan was furious and sneered. "Leng Xinyu, I'm telling you. Listen carefully. I originally wanted to give you five months. I've already been so humble, but you're treating me like this. What are you going to do with this? Expose me? Let the Independent Commission Against Corruption investigate me? Or do you want the police to arrest me directly? You've got guts, but I'm telling you, no matter which path you choose, I'll never sign the divorce papers with you. You want to divorce me at all costs and seek refuge in the arms of that traitor, right? "
He reached out and pointed fiercely at Xin Yu. He gritted his teeth and said, "I won't let you get what you want!"
With that last sentence, Lu Yihan stormed out in a huff. He slammed the door loudly.
Xin Yu didn't say anything. She had already predicted that he would be angry if she gave him such a thing. She just didn't expect him to be so angry.
It was probably like what he said. She couldn't wait to cut ties with him. Of course, in his eyes, she would immediately fly into the arms of another man after cutting ties.
Of course, half of the reason why she was like this was indeed because of Qin Fangang.
