But Tang Zeyu would never have thought that something that seemed so simple and easy to settle could become the other starting point of his life. It would be like the butterfly effect, which could completely destroy everything he wanted.
It did seem like the lawyer was right. No reporter followed them, but the person in the car was even more of a headache for him than the reporter.
The two girls that he didn't want to see the most were actually waiting for him in the carriage.
"Lawyer Li, has everything been settled?"
"Yes Madam, everything has been settled. The police will issue a statement. They won't leave any bad records."
"Let's go." Lu Qin did not ask, and Yun Xi did not even glance at him, as if he had only come here for the sake of others to see.
For the sake of his own reputation, he had tied himself up and led the life of another woman. Unknowingly, he had really become the person he thought of.
The world's Perfume Contest, that competition where I once took first place. Gu Cheng brought her to participate in that competition. Yun Xi did not turn back as he looked forward, as if he was talking to himself.
"He's overestimating himself. He really thinks that his skills can be used in such a big competition." Yun Xi laughed in disdain and clenched his fists tightly. Back then, he had even broken his promise to his master before he could get first place, so Zhong Yunxi would definitely not easily get first place.
Tang Zeyu looked at Yun Xi's back figure in puzzlement. What did she mean by telling himself about Zhong Yunxi's whereabouts? She should hate being with Zhong Yunxi.
"I agree to your divorce. I will prepare a new divorce agreement and notify you to sign it."
Tang Zeyu frowned, he looked at Yun Xi, then turned his gaze to Lu Qin. Seeing his doubt, Lu Qin nodded, confirming the truth.
Yun Xi suddenly agreed to a divorce? A few days ago, she still vividly remembered his appearance, so how could he suddenly turn into such a decision? Exactly what happened in the process that he did not know about? This was the reason for the change.
No matter what the reason was, as long as they left him, even if they were sad or angry, they would slowly disappear. There would definitely be someone better than him appearing by his side, just like Kai Wen.
Let him be an ostrich, let him avoid solving a problem. As long as they were separated, everything would be fine. No matter what price he had to pay, he was willing to accept it. That was something he should bear.
Lu Qin also looked at Yun Xi's back. Although this was the result that they wanted, thinking about how she looked when he came to find them made them feel uneasy.
One day before this event, Lu Qin and Tang Zeyu were the same. Even though they did not ask each other about it, they had a very tacit understanding to solve the problem the Tang clan was facing together.
But Yun Xi had actually taken the initiative to look for her. Obviously, when they had agreed to discuss this matter that day, Yun Xi hadn't come, but he had chosen to meet her at this time.
"What are you going to tell me?" Lu Qin looked at Yun Xi in front of her. It had only been a few days, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
"I plan to agree to divorce Tang Zeyu."
"Why?" Lu Qin was a little shocked, Yun Xi actually came to find him because she wanted to agree to a divorce? This didn't seem like a decision she would make. Based on her personality, this lesson wouldn't have angered her.
"Why else? What's wrong with me to keep pestering a man who doesn't love me at all, to go on with his married life? Like auntie? "
"Just like me, yeah, just as pathetic as me, right? I hope that you really will not become so pathetic. " Lu Qin retaliated without any hint of anger.
"Isn't this just what you want? When I came back at first, you really hoped that Zhong Yunxi could stay in my place, didn't you? "It's a good thing now. Although it was a bit late, she still took my place." If he had not brought that person in and waited for her, she would have been very happy.
Had she deprived him of the chance to be happy, yet he had to live with everything? She had lost something important. She should have lost something.
"Zhong Yunxi is more suitable for you than her." Lu Qin did not plan to avoid this question, "You are very outstanding, with a pride that has grown from outstanding to great, so you will not wholeheartedly love Ze Yu, but want to stand in the same position as him. But Zhong Yunxi does not, she will do her best to love Ze Yu.
"Let's try having it, let's see if Zhong Yunxi still wants you to say it after she possesses a lot of it. If she doesn't want anything, and only loves Tang Zeyu with all her heart, instead of pursuing her own dreams, if I were to place her in my place back then, she would also make the same choice."
Yeah, at first, he had thought of leaving Tang Zeyu temporarily because of his higher development, but that was only for now, how could they separate completely because of such a small matter?
This was a chance to walk on a higher path, and not care about others at all? She didn't believe it.
"Maybe, but I still want to believe that someone will make a different choice."
"Then let's wait and see. However, I don't want to discuss this issue right now. Let's discuss the conditions for me to leave the Tang clan. If I don't want it, then I might not be the one who leaves this place."
"Such a simple revenge will make you feel like you can give up. It has never been what I thought it was, so you can just speak your conditions." She had expected what would happen.
But Lu Qin never thought that the condition that Yun Xi proposed was not only for her to lose everything, nor for her to use the Tang clan's amount as compensation. Her condition was actually for her to completely divorce Tang Sihan.
This whole week, it was left to her to sort out her relationship with Tang Sihan.
To make himself completely lose the obsession that he had always had, this method of revenge was really high-level. But this was also good. What was wrong with that? He didn't have the courage to do anything, so someone finally pushed him away.
But what was that feeling in her heart? When he thought about divorce Tang Sihan, why didn't he feel joy of relief? Instead, it was an even heavier pain.
Heh, leaving a man who had tortured her for so long still made her reluctant. She was really mentally ill.
"You're not going in?" Lu Qin looked at Yun Xi who did not get off the car. They had already arrived, but did not move.
"Why should I go in? To me, this place is already someone else's home.
The ice-cold carriage shone in the dark night as it gradually moved further and further away, and until it finally disappeared. Lu Qin and Tang Zeyu were still standing at their original positions, watching without saying a word.
"She'll suddenly agree to a divorce. You're the one who should be giving her something in exchange." The result he wanted to see, was always this person holding something behind his back to exchange for something. Back then, Zhong Yunxi was, but now, Yun Xi was as well.
"Sort of, but not exactly." "It's her own business anyway, she doesn't even know if this is a deal or not." "Come on up, I have something to say to you." Since he was going to make this decision, he would have to inform him in advance.
For several days, no one appeared in the room. The moment he switched on the light, he could feel the chilliness in the air. Tang Zeyu didn't mind at all as he walked to the sofa and sat down.
"Would you like some coffee?" Lu Qin asked and then immediately turned on the coffee machine. The fragrance of the beans powdering the place started to warm up the room.
"Since Yun Xi has agreed to a divorce, everything can be considered to be settled. Don't worry, it will be over soon." Lu Qin placed the fragrant and warm coffee in front of Tang Zeyu.
"There is one more thing that I have decided on. Do you want to hear it?"
Tang Zeyu picked up the cup of coffee. The temperature that it entered his stomach made him feel as if all his pores were opening, but every single one of his nerves were tensed up. Lu Qin had never used such a tone to talk to him before.
In his memory, Lu Qin's tone had always been commanding, commanding and forceful, unlike the current him, who had a warm motherly aura to him.
"What is it?"
"I … I'm going to divorce your father."
The sound of the cup hitting the floor was crisp. The coffee that was still hot didn't hurt when it landed on his skin, as if it didn't have any warmth.
Dad? Dad? Lu Qin had never called Tang Sihan that in front of him before. This kind of address didn't seem to exist in his family; he would rarely even give up the name Mother in front of Lu Qin.
But today, Lu Qin, who had always called Tang Sihan that man in front of him, actually said that he was his father, and even said that he wanted to divorce him.
"Look at you, you're already so old, how come you can't even take care of yourself?" Lu Qin carefully cleaned up the fragments on the ground before turning around with her back facing Tang Zeyu.
"Why did you suddenly decide to get divorced?" Tang Zeyu could not understand, back then he advised her to leave in such a manner and she was even unwilling, why would she suddenly make such a decision?
"Didn't you say that? I should try to live another life, shouldn't I? "
"Why is that?" Tang Zeyu did not believe his words, he understood Lu Qin too well. Although this life was not happy for her, but it had long been a part of her heart. How could he let it go just because of what he had said?
"What is it? You think it's strange that I suddenly think that way? " Of course, Lu Qin knew that he would not believe him, "But Ze Yu, people's thoughts often change like this, in an instant, seeing that you let Yun Xi go, I also want to leave by myself."
"I've already been like this for more than twenty years, spending the best part of my life on the road of battling with your father. Actually, for the current me, he's no longer my spiritual pillar, but the Tang clan, so I plan to give up for a bit. Don't you support me?"
What kind of situation was this, to speak with such sincerity, making people unable to help believing in his sincerity, Tang Zeyu even began to doubt and waver.
"If that's what you really think, then of course I support you. Isn't that what I've always wanted?" Being able to give up on all these aspects of life was the best result.
