Chapter 195: I Just Take What I Get.

Chapter 195

After a three and a half hour trial, Tan Xi Yuan walked out of the courtroom only to be stopped by Lu Feng.

Tan's parents thought that Lu was going to attack their son and quickly shielded him.

"What do you want? This is a court, there are cameras!" Tan's mother warned.

"Don't worry, Mom. I just have something to say to Xi Yuan. Can you give us some privacy?" Lu spoke softly.

"Don't call me Mom. You're divorced, I'm not your mother. Say what you need to say here, I won't leave," Tan's mother replied, still protecting her son from Lu.

Lu's eyes were fixed on Tan, but Tan deliberately turned his face away and refused to look at him.

Unable to get through to Tan's parents, Lu said, "Xi Yuan, please, for the sake of our many years of marriage, don't take so much cash with you. Can't you exchange it for shares in the company?"

"Ha! You're dreaming!" Tan's mother spat at Lu. "You cheated on him, and you have the nerve to say such things?"

Knowing he was being misunderstood, Lu quickly explained, "It's not what you think. What I meant was, can Xi Yuan not take so much cash from the company and instead exchange it for shares?"

"It's impossible," Tan finally looked at Lu and said.

A glimmer of despair flashed in Lu's eyes. "If you take so much money, the company will be finished."

"That's your problem, not mine!" Tan replied coldly.

"Tan Xi Yuan's mother comforted her, 'Don't be sad. From now on, take good care of yourself and the child.'

'Mom, after completing the formalities, I want to go abroad,' Tan Xi Yuan finally told her parents about her plan.

'Why do you want to go abroad?' Tan Xi Yuan's mother asked in surprise.

'I want to get away from Lu Feng. I'm afraid he will try to take the child from me,' Tan Xi Yuan said, caressing her slightly swollen belly.

Tan Xi Yuan's pregnancy was already over four months, but she wore loose clothing that didn't reveal her belly.

'But if you go abroad alone, who will take care of you?' Tan Xi Yuan's mother worriedly asked.

'Gu Ya is abroad. I'll go to seek refuge with her.'

Tan Xi Yuan's mother knew Gu Ya because Tan Xi Yuan had brought her home for dinner.

Knowing that Tan Xi Yuan was going to seek refuge with Gu Ya, Tan Xi Yuan's mother felt relieved. 'Then, when you're about to give birth, your father and I will come find you.'

'Okay, thank you, Mom. You've always been the best to me,' Tan Xi Yuan affectionately held her mother's arm, leaning her head on her shoulder, and said in a spoiled manner.

'Silly child, you're my daughter. If I'm not good to you, who will be?' Tan Xi Yuan's mother said kindly.

Tan Xi Yuan happily leaned against her mother's shoulder. It was because of the support and understanding from her parents that she had the confidence to go through with the divorce."
