Chapter 462 - We Broke Up (2/2)
Li Yan’er said indifferently, “Perhaps you should not divorce her.”
Xu Sheng was startled. He said instantly, “Don’t worry. I will divorce her since I have made a promise to you. I feel that she will sign the papers any time soon. And she will get half of my money after the divorce. Indeed, I got the start-up money from her family, but the money she will get after our divorce is enough to make her a wealthy woman.”
Li Yan’er just nodded. She said nothing else.
Xu Sheng thought Li Yan’er was angry. He explained hastily, “It is not easy to file for a divorce nowadays. But fortunately, she did not make things difficult for us. If she sues me for adultery, we will be put into an adverse situation on the division of the property. Besides, I need to consider the feelings of my daughter… But I am willing to give up everything to be with you.”
“Okay. Let’s just sleep. I’m tired.”
“Okay.” Xu Sheng suddenly sat up and said, “Good night. I need to go to the bathroom now.”
Li Yan’er hummed. Actually, she knew what Xu Sheng was about to do, according to the strength of his lust. But she did not care about him now. All she was thinking about was to be a young and rich master’s wife.
The next morning, when Xu Sheng got up from bed, Li Yan’er was putting on her make-up in front of her dressing-table. She looked even more radiant after she put on her make-up,
After hearing the movements on the bed, Li Yan’er looked back at Xu Sheng and asked, “You’re up. You don’t want to get more sleep?”
“I’ve had enough.” Xu Sheng looked at her lustfully, while dressing. “I always wake up early.”
“Really? I thought the same.” Li Yan’er looked into the mirror and turned her face left and right. She seemed to appreciate her beauty very much.
Xu Sheng approached Li Yan’er and put his hands on her shoulders. He bent down and kissed her cheek. “We can be together legally after the divorce. I will give you a beautiful wedding.”
Li Yan’er suddenly sighed, “Brother Sheng. I think… I think that you are actually working very hard.”
Xu Sheng felt relieved, “It’s nothing as long as it’s for you.”
Li Yan’er said, “Brother Bing, perhaps you should not divorce… In truth, I felt guilty when I think about her these days. I think it’s better for you to live with your wife as before.”
Xu Sheng was speechless for a moment, then he asked, “Yan’er, what are you talking about?”
Li Yan’er sighed, “I mean it. I’m not angry or just prompted by a sudden impulse. She is really good to you. You should go back and love her as a husband. You should not abandon her because of me. Besides, you two have a daughter.”
Xu Sheng shook his head and said, “You were not like this before.”
Li Yan’er smiled, “I did not think like an adult before. I have been thinking about this and I think we’d better break up.”
Xu Sheng was thunderstruck. “Do you think I’m too slow with the divorce proceedings? Or do you have any dissatisfaction with me? It’s okay. You can say it at any time.”
“I don’t have any dissatisfaction. I know you care about me and I appreciate that. But it’s not good for us to be together anymore. You have a wife and a daughter, and I don’t want to be called a gold-digger who tears families apart. Actually, I’m a good woman. I’m sad to see your family like this because of me. So it’s better for us to break up. And I won’t take advantage of you. I will soon move out from this villa. You should not come and see me anymore. Can you do that?”
“No.” Xu Sheng said hotly,” Why on earth are you saying that? You were not like this before. You said that you will marry me as long as I divorce my wife. Now she’s about to agree and my daughter hates my guts. I gave up everything to be with you. How could you do this to me?”
Li Yan’er stood up, turned around, and looked at him. Then she spoke in a calm tone, “Brother Xu, we thought it would be easy for us. But it was a childish and impulsive move. Now we both should try to be rational… From now on, you and I can only be friends. Now it’s time for us to break up!”
