Pregnancy, twins.
Xi Yunmiao looked at the few words on the test sheet, tears of joy streaming down her face. Her slender fingers covered her mouth, it was truly amazing. Finally, she had her own child. She must tell her husband this good news with her own voice.
Jiang Group.
The elevator mirror reflected a smile as beautiful as a flower. With a *ding*, the elevator stopped on the 38th floor. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, Ms. Shu politely blocked her way. "Madam, the CEO is accompanying Mr. Liu, the president of Sheng Hua, to play golf."
"I just saw his car..."
Before she could finish, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the office. Xi Yunmiao's face darkened, and she slammed her book shut, simultaneously pushing towards the crimson wooden door with both hands.
The office was filled with a springy romance. A man in a suit had his arm around another person's waist, the other person's head buried in the crook of his neck, a head of black hair spilling down, trailing along the man's collarbone. "Ting, you're such a bad boy,"
Jiang Kaiting suddenly raised his head, the expression on his face instantly transforming from tranquility to a raging storm. "Who allowed you to come in?"
He shouted again, "Pei Shu, you have no bonus this month!"
Shu went out tremblingly.
Xi Yunmiao let out a cold laugh, her eyes misting over. There was no trace of the joy one would expect from a woman about to become a mother. She subconsciously crumpled the thin piece of paper in her hand. "I'm your wife, why can't I come?"
Zhao Anlin seemed to have just discovered it, gently tugging at the man's tie with both hands and leaving a light kiss on his face. She smiled playfully, "Ting, what are you hesitating about?"
Jiang Kaiting glared at the man with a face ashen, "Get out!"
Xi Yunmiao tugged at the corner of her mouth, trying to force a smile so that she could hold her head high with dignity, but tears fell uncontrollably. "You said you would definitely break up with me."
Zhao Anlin suddenly grabbed a pile of photos from the tea table and threw them at him, saying, "Look what you've done! You're flirting with men at the bar. How could Ting possibly want someone like you, a frivolous woman, as his wife?"
Xi Yunmiao looked at the scattered photos. They were from her best friend's fight with her boyfriend. She had just tried to explain things to her friend's boyfriend, and unconsciously, she fixed a pair of blurred teary eyes on Jiang Kaiting, anxiously saying: "I can explain, these photos are taken from an angle."
Zhao Anlin slapped her face, “Stop acting innocent here. Back then, if you hadn't used every trick in the book to seduce Ting's grandfather, and his grandfather liked you, he would have married you to please him. Otherwise, do you think you could have become Mrs. Jiang?”
Yes, that's true enough. It's just that Xi Yunmiao didn't expect Jiang Kaiting to tell her even this.
Xi Yunmiao worked part-time while studying in college, and she met Mr. Jiang, who was having a medical emergency in the park. She sent him to the hospital and notified his family. Later, when she volunteered at the hospital with her classmates, she met Mr. Jiang again and he liked her very much, leading to their marriage. They received their marriage certificate when Mr. Jiang was seriously ill.
This refers to a marriage of convenience. It signifies a disparity in their social standing and wealth, though that's not necessarily wrong.
Oh! So that's how it is. It turns out he truly never had one. Poor thing, still foolishly believing they could actually hold a wedding and grow old together...
Zhao Anlin looked at his ashen face and said triumphantly, “Besides your wedding night, has he ever been with you? Do you know why? Because he will divorce you sooner or later, and he won't have children with you.”
Child?
Xi Yunmiao subconsciously muttered, "It turns out that it was a scam from the beginning."
Since their wedding a year ago, except for the first month of marriage, he has gone home once a month. After each visit, he personally hands her a birth control pill. He says he is in his senior year of college and will be going to graduate school afterwards. He doesn't want a child to interfere with his studies and suggests waiting a few years before having one.
Before, on the eve of graduation, she switched her birth control pills for vitamins, and that's when she got pregnant. She wanted to give him a surprise, but he gave her a fright instead.
The child in my belly was just a joke.
And when Chiang Kai-ting heard these words, he didn't intend to explain at all.
Xi Yunmiao met the man's cold face, and at this moment she knew that her tears were so worthless. She wiped her eyes and asked, "Husband, you said that you and I were just going through the motions, haven't you forgotten? You said..."
This sentence was like lighting the fuse of dynamite. The man who had been frowning and observing suddenly stood up, walked to his desk, grabbed a file, and came back over. His powerful aura was like an ancient glacier, freezing the air in the room.
Xi Yunmiao stared at his every move, almost forgetting to breathe. As the man walked towards her, she took a step back with each of his steps. Suddenly, her back hurt as she bumped into a large fish tank that was one meter and seven high. She steadied herself, but couldn't catch her breath from the man's powerful aura.
Jiang Kaiting brought the document forward and said, without a hint of warmth, "Divorce. The villa is yours, and I'll give you another 100 million."
Xi Yunmiao looked at the four big characters "Divorce Agreement", her heart felt like it was being chopped with soy sauce, "President Jiang, compared to your family, is this all you can give me?"
A sharp, piercing voice cut through the air, "You've only been married for a year, don't be shameless."
Xi Yunmiao glared at Zhao Anlin with a blade-like gaze, "This is a matter between my husband and me. You, as an outsider, have no right to interfere. If you don't pay up, I'll post our marriage certificate online."
Jiang Kaiting said coldly: "Then you just wait for the subpoena from the court. When that time comes, let you be indebted by one hundred million, don't blame me for not reminding you today."
Debt?
One hundred million?
Indeed, when men become ruthless, nothing matters. A man who cheats can be so brazen and unapologetic.
Chao Anlin walked over in high heels, kicking the person in front of her. "You shameless wretch! You're never satisfied even with one hundred million, go die! Ting, what gives you the right to give so much?"
Xi Yunmiao instinctively covered her abdomen. At this moment of relaxation, Zhao Anlin increased her force, kicking her to the ground. The man just watched coldly, as if a little dog was struggling on the ground.
He struggled to get up, raising his hand to strike the arrogant man. A broad, strong hand grasped his arm in mid-air. The man growled menacingly, "You dare point a finger at me? I'll tear you limb from limb!"
I'll tear you apart!
He watched coldly as his wife was bullied by someone else, but when she fought back, he stopped her with absolute dominance.
Xi Yunmiao had no tears, no heartbreak. She was numb, like a withered blade of grass, as if countless voices suddenly sprang up in the air, laughing and jeering at her in unison.
I don't know how I got home, I was completely dazed and felt like a puppet.
A slender figure curled up on the luxurious European sofa. The entire villa was silent, as if abandoned by the world.
As the sun set in the west, soft footsteps drew his gaze. He lifted his eyelids and looked at the man in a suit who walked in, then sat up straight with his cane.
"Mrs. Chiang," The lawyer, a seasoned professional accustomed to the joys and sorrows of human relationships, spoke in a tone devoid of emotion. "This is the divorce agreement Mr. Chiang has asked you to sign. This villa plus one hundred million yuan will be given to you as compensation. Additionally, he will transfer a small company under his name to you. Mr. Chiang will hire a professional manager to handle it for you, ensuring it does not interfere with your studies or interests."
The lawyer glanced at the documents again and said, "Mr. Jiang has already decided to divorce and won't change his mind, Mrs. Jiang, I hope you can be rational. Mr. Jiang has given you very generous divorce terms. Even if you sue him, you wouldn't get so much money..."
The lawyer came and went in a rush. Xi Yunmiao picked up the divorce agreement on the tea table, her thin lips curling into a faint smile, the most bitter smile she had ever worn.
...Children who are unwanted and forbidden, wouldn't it be possible to have another choice...?
The cabin was deserted at midnight. Yu's voice, soft and melodious, echoed through the emptiness. Outside the window, wispy clouds drifted past, illuminated by a few distant lights. She placed her hand on her stomach and murmured to herself: Goodbye, Nanjiang City. Goodbye, Jiang Kai Ting.
I raise my own children.
I only wish that there will be no more gatherings in this life. |
