Han Meilin recalled that he had promised to marry her, but at the last moment, he had announced to the public that he would marry Cao Xuehua. At that time, she had almost become the laughing stock of the entire circle!
She stood up with a straight face. Just as she was about to speak up to avoid being abandoned again, Ning Wentao said, "Xuehua, I'm sorry because I have to take responsibility for Meilin!"
Han Meilin:??
Cao Xuehua:??
The two women were stunned.
They looked at Ning Wentao in disbelief.
Han Meilin's jaw tightened. She did not speak for a moment, but there was a sudden surge of hope in her heart. She knew that this hope was wrong. Her feelings for Ning Wentao had been a sin from the beginning, but she had suppressed it for too many years. She had been lonely for too many years.
Ever since she had fallen in love with him when she was young, and now that she was forty years old, she had longed to have someone to accompany her in the dead of night.
She had tried dating before, but she had always given up halfway.
She did not know where she had read that when there was only one person in your heart, it was not that the others were not good. It was that they were just making do with you, and she did not want to make do with them.
Now …
Han Meilin's eyes lit up.
Cao Xuehua had not expected this at all. Her expression became a little scary. "Ning Wentao, what did you say?! You want to take responsibility for her? What about me?! We have been husband and wife for eight years. Do you not care about that anymore?! "
Han Meilin's eyes that had just lit up dimmed when she heard this.
That's right.
He had a wife.
Although they had slept together last night, he and his wife had been sleeping together for so many years!
Han Meilin's expression turned cold at this thought. She said directly, "I don't need you to take responsibility!"
Then, she stood up and grabbed her bag. She looked at Cao Xuehua and said in a domineering manner, "I will not apologize. I am also a victim in this matter. We are all adults. I believe you understand what I am saying. "
Then, she walked straight out of the room.
Seeing her like this, Ning Wentao was anxious and grabbed her wrist. "No, you can't go!"
Han Meilin was a little impatient. She wanted to break free from Ning Wentao's grip, but she couldn't push him away no matter how hard she tried. She could only say angrily, "Let me go! What era is it now? You don't have to take responsibility for your love and pleasure! "
Ning Wentao panicked. "You don't have to take responsibility, but I do!"
Han Meilin:?
She frowned. "What do you mean?"
Ning Wentao sneered, "All these years, I don't know how many people you've slept with, but I'm not a casual person. Since you slept with me last night, you have to take responsibility!"
Han Meilin:!!
She was surprised and anxious. "I only slept with you for one night, but Cao Xuehua and you …"
"I've never slept with her!" Ning Wentao explained before he could finish his sentence.
His words resounded throughout the room, causing everyone to look at him in unison.
Han Meilin was in disbelief. "What … What did you say?"
Ning Wentao's face turned red. He was embarrassed, but he was afraid that Han Meilin would misunderstand, so he said, "I told you, Cao Xuehua and I have a prenuptial agreement. I only gave her an identity and took care of her and her daughter, but we have never been husband and wife."
After saying this, he became shy again. "So, all these years, I've never slept with her. You've only slept with me. You have to take responsibility for me!"
Han Meilin: …!!
Hearing this, she was shocked!!
Never slept with her?
How was that possible?!
However, Cao Xuehua's face was as white as a sheet after hearing Ning Wentao's words. Obviously, he was right.
Han Meilin's eyes widened in disbelief. She did not know what to say.
Ning Meng and Ning Ke were stunned as well.
The two of them never thought that things would go so smoothly.
Ning Ke's face was filled with joy. Was she going to succeed?
While the four of them were celebrating, Cao Xuehua screamed, "Ning Wentao, what do you mean?!"
Ning Wentao coughed and sighed. "Xuehua, I never had any feelings for you. After all these years, I've let you down and I've let down this marriage. So, let's get a divorce."
"Divorce?!"
Cao Xuehua felt as if all the blood in her body was boiling, and every single cell in her body was clamoring. She shouted, "Have you forgotten that we signed a prenuptial agreement?"
Ning Wentao lowered his head and sighed. "I know."
Ning Meng was stunned. "What prenuptial agreement?"
Ning Wentao looked at her hesitantly. "Before we got married, I was afraid that she would fight with you for the family assets if I passed away. So, we signed a prenuptial agreement. Although she married me, she could not take away any of the family assets after I passed away. However, to protect her interests, I added a clause. If I were to ask for a divorce, I would have to give her 20% of the family assets. "
"… So, this is the reason why you never divorced her even though you have no feelings for her?"
Ning Wentao nodded. "Everything in the house belongs to you. You can't give it to anyone else!"
"…"
Ning Wentao must have regretted his decision after he had married Cao Xuehua on impulse. However, he had been treating Cao Xuehua with respect all these years and had never divorced her. Ning Meng did not know whether to laugh or cry.
She said domineeringly, "Give it to her!"
It was just 20% of the family assets.
How could it compare to the few decades of happiness that Ning Wentao had left?
Ning Wentao looked at her apologetically. "Mengmeng, I'm sorry. I'm not capable. But don't worry. After the divorce, I will work hard to earn back the 20%."
"…"
There was no point in talking about this now. The most important thing now was to settle the divorce and confess to Aunt Meilin.
Seeing that Papa Ning did not understand, Ning Meng looked at Han Meilin and said, "Aunt Meilin, what do you think we should do about this?"
Han Meilin still hadn't recovered from the shock. She looked at Ning Wentao in disbelief. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't find the words to say.
Finally, she paused and finally said, "Then I'll give you 20%."
Ning Wentao was overjoyed. "Okay! Okay!"
"…!"
Cao Xuehua stood at the side, watching the four of them happily. She was like an outsider.
Even if she had gotten 20% of Lemon Entertainment's assets, she was still a joke!
Thinking about all the hard work she had put in all these years … In the end, she was kicked away with 20% of the assets?!
Due to her anger and despair, she could not help but tremble. She kept gasping for air, and her eyes were glowing green. She looked like a cat that had been pushed to the brink of death!
No, she could not give up like this!
Ah, ah, ah, ah, I accidentally wrote too much about Cao Xuehua and Ning Wentao's plot. I did not write the part that I mentioned yesterday. I'll write it tomorrow ~ If I can't write it tomorrow, I'll add more chapters! Muah ~ It's a new week, my little cuties, please vote ~!
