Chapter 201: Divorce 1

ty is a certain investment tycoon, and I have quite a bit of private friendship with him. He once saved me on the way to Tibet." 。The CFO knows who he's talking about. 。Zhao Tingxing: "You go and arra...To allow Lin Shenchu's rehabilitation project to operate normally, withdraw the lawsuit against Hongzheng Law Firm, and restore everything to normal. This was her only requirement for agreeing to divorce.

Cheng Zhimin agreed: "Ms. Shu, I admire your courage. Since you agree to the divorce so readily, I will certainly keep my word. But I also have a request. After the divorce, leave Senzhou and never appear before Yu An again."

"Good." Shu Tinglan nodded in agreement, only to feel as if her internal organs were being torn apart with pain.

At this moment, the door to the ward was pushed open from outside. A tall girl walked in. Shu Tinglan felt familiar and suddenly remembered that it was Li Yu whom she had met on the island.

Chen Zhimin on the sickbed lowered her head hurriedly shoved the divorce agreement into the folder, not letting Li Yu see it.

Shu Tinglan understood. The Zhu family had publicly stated that Zhu Yunan was still unmarried, of course, he couldn't let his future fiancée know about his previous marriage.

Li Yu saw Shu Tinglan was a little surprised, but she ignored him directly, without even saying hello. She went straight to Cheng Zhimin's bed and held her hand, asking about her well-being.

“Auntie, is there anything better today”

"I'm doing much better now. With Dean Liu personally looking after me, as you introduced, how could I not be Yu An knows you're coming and said he'll come over for lunch to thank you for taking care of us these past few days."

Cheng Zhimin's words were intentionally said to Shu Tinglan, letting her know about the relationship between Zhuo Yunan and Li Yu, making her understand that this was the kind of daughter-in-law the Zhuo family deserved - talented, accomplished, and well-connected.

Lee said, "He just called me and told me."

The two of them chatted about Zhuo YUAN's affairs as if no one else was around. Shu Tinglan silently exited the ward, leaving them space. Zhuo YUAN's future partner should be someone like Li Yu with a similar background. This is the right way for him to open up his marriage, and she didn't lose at all.

The nanny outside saw her come out and sighed. She had heard everything the woman said inside just moments ago about agreeing to a divorce. She felt both relieved and sorry for her. What a good girl she was.

"I'll see you out," the nanny insisted on walking her out of the hospital.

"Okay," Shu Tinglan followed her readily.

The nanny was kind-hearted and wanted to comfort her, but along the way, until they reached the hospital gate, she couldn't say a word because anything she said at this point would be superfluous.

"Mr. Shu, on behalf of the Zhu family, I thank you."

Shu Tinglan nodded slightly, then strode back to her own car.

Thank her

Is it thanks for her forbearance, or thanks for her powerlessness What a sarcastic expression of gratitude!

She didn't drive back to the luxurious apartment in the city center or to her law firm. Instead, she drove back to her suburban house. She had been deeply stressed lately and hadn't visited her mother much since bringing her home from the hospital. As she pulled up to her doorstep, she found herself without the courage to go inside. She couldn't face her mother and was afraid of what her current appearance would reveal.

She sat there for a long time, until it was dark, until Zhuo Yu'an called to ask where she was.

She said, “Over at my place.”

"I'll be right there to pick you up." Zhuo Yu'an said quickly. He knew she only went back to his place when she was in a bad mood.

"Okay, drive carefully and be safe."

"Hmm."

After about half an hour, Zhuo Yu'an's car parked steadily in the parking lot in front of the unit door and he walked towards her.

It was already autumn, yet she still wore a thin shirt and dress. She sat in the dim light, seeming unsteady like a swaying lamp. When she saw him arrive, she motioned for him to sit beside her.

They were seated facing the entrance to their apartment building, where people came and went frequently. The motion-activated light above the door flickered on and off incessantly.

She said, "If that high school reunion, you hadn't driven me home, or I hadn't, with all those jumbled thoughts in my head, invited you upstairs, do you think we'd have a story after that"

"Whether or not there's a party, whether or not you invite me upstairs, we'll still be together like this, it's just a matter of time." That gathering was something he had planned for weeks in order to see her, it wasn't by chance.

But Shu Tinglan didn't think so. She always believed that if, at that time, she hadn't taken the initiative to invite him to her home, there wouldn't have been the story that followed.

"So, 'Sometimes I regret it, if not for that once, now I should be living an ordinary and peaceful life. Perhaps in the future, I would meet a man who is equally matched and with a similar background, without the grand and passionate love, but a gentle and enduring companionship, supporting each other through life.'"

Because of her words, Zhuo Yu'an suddenly turned his head to look at her.

"Don't look at me like that, everything I said is true. Zhuo Y uan, it started here with me and now it ends here too. I'm sorry, let's break up."

As she spoke, she also pulled out the divorce agreement and placed it before him.

When he saw the words "divorce agreement," Zhuo Yunan's face turned pale.

"What do you mean" he asked hoarsely, unable to believe she could be so resolute, having even drafted a divorce agreement.

"This agreement was drafted by Director Xiao for me. It fully complies with legal regulations, so you can rest assured."

Zuo Yu'an pressed his voice down, then suddenly roared:

"Is this what you're asking What am I to you You start when you want, and you end when you want." He didn't want to yell at her, but seeing that agreement, he panicked. He knew she was determined and there was no going back.

Shutinglan looked at him, her eyes gradually misting over. She clenched her jaw, fighting back tears, and held the agreement tightly in her hand.

I visited your mom at the hospital today and saw Liyu. I know you had lunch together at noon.

Zuo Yu'an, like grabbing a lifebuoy, explained.

“Was it because I invited Liyu to dinner I was just being grateful, the director Liu at the hospital is her uncle...”

“Don't explain it to me, I understand, and I think it’s really good. Seriously, when I saw Li Yu in the hospital today, I thought she was perfect for you. This isn't me being upset with you, I just think you two are very compatible. Think about it, Wen Jian used to like you too, and she is also excellent and beautiful, but I don't think she was a good fit for you at all. Li Yu is different, you have the same upbringing, the same family background, and even though you might not have realized it yourself, your personalities are very similar, you're both the same type of person. She can be your strong support system, letting you live without worries for your whole life.”

She rambled on and on, a bit disjointed, but Zhuo Yúan grasped the key points. His face turned icy as he asked...

“So now you're encouraging me to go after other women To be with other women Shu Tinglan, you're so generous, generous to the point of... being repulsive.”

After speaking, he stood up and strode into the darkness without looking back.

As he watched him leave, Shu Tinglan's eyes finally couldn't hold back the tears welling up inside.e tower, unable to see the people below, only hearing their wails. 。It was the sweltering heat of midday in summer. The sun beat down relentlessly, and Mr. Li seemed to be suffering from heatstroke,...
