My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 811 - : 811, rest assured, I won’t touch you.
Chapter 811: 811, rest assured, I won’t touch you.
The next morning, at the hospital ward.
“Didn’t things get settled online? How come you’re having conflicts with the Little Princess again? Are you two playing a fighting game all day long?”
The man in the hospital bed spoke, “Zhong Kai, you go out first.”
“Okay, President Xiao.”
After Zhong Kai left and the door closed, Zhan Yao continued to ask him, “Is the Little Princess still making a fuss about divorce with you?”
Xiao Yebai didn’t speak.
...
But obviously, he tacitly agreed.
“Damn!” Zhan Yao cursed, “If you ask me, if it really doesn’t work out, just get a divorce. Is it necessary to keep getting hurt and bleeding all the time?”
Xiao Yebai said, “It’s not necessary.”
“Right, it’s just a woman, and she’s just pretty. You can find another one in the future…”
“What I’m saying is, it’s not necessary to get divorced.”
Zhan Yao: “…”
He looked at the man in front of him with a blank expression, seemingly lost in thought.
Then, he suddenly asked, “You couldn’t have fallen in love with the Little Princess, could you? Actually, you’ve been madly in love with her all this time, and that’s why you’d rather hurt yourself than divorce her, right?”
Xiao Yebai’s gaze shifted from the computer screen in front of him to his face.
No response, but his eyes were a bit odd.
And being looked at like this by him, Zhan Yao suddenly felt himself…
Like an idiot!
“Alright, I thought too much,” Zhan Yao quickly dismissed the thought, “Then why don’t you agree to divorce her?”
Xiao Yebai turned his gaze back to the work document on the screen and spoke lightly, “There’s no need for a divorce.”
“But she’s making a scene with you now. Do you need to keep tangled up with her like this?” Zhan Yao thought of a plan, “How about this, just agree to the divorce. Women, once they get stubborn, not even ten bulls can pull them back. You should just divorce her directly, let her see how dangerous society is, how miserable life would be without you backing her up…”
“I promised her mother that I would never get a divorce.”
“The person has been dead for so many years, and you still remember?” Zhan Yao couldn’t help but roll his eyes, “You need to understand that it’s the Little Princess who is making a fuss about divorcing you, and she’s angry right now. The less you agree, the more tense the relationship between you two becomes. It’s like a spring; the more you press it, the stronger she rebounds. What if she gets ruthless and decides to abort the baby?”
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional.
Xiao Yebai’s brow slightly furrowed and he said nothing for a long time.
**
Xiao Yebai stayed in the hospital for three more days and was finally able to be discharged.
During these three days, he had no contact with Mo Weiyi and did not let the servants pass on any messages to her.
Mo Weiyi really didn’t know what he was thinking and restrained herself from contacting him.
On the day of being discharged and returning home, early in the morning, Aunt Zhou had gone to the hospital to help.
Mo Weiyi sat on the sofa in the living room downstairs, watching TV, while listening to the noises outside.
About an hour later, she finally heard the sound of a car engine.
Soon, there was movement at the entrance.
“Princess,” Zhong Kai called out.
Mo Weiyi stood up and then looked over.
Xiao Yebai soon came in from outside, followed by servants and bodyguards. Some were responsible for carrying luggage, others were helping with his briefcase.
He was wearing the white shirt that had been hanging in the hospital room, paired with black trousers. The gauze on his right hand had not yet been removed. Wearing scholarly plain glasses, his brows and eyes were cold and clean, the man looking handsome and distinguished.
He didn’t look at her but directly went upstairs.
Mo Weiyi: “…”
So she had been… ignored?
Zhong Kai spoke up from the side, “Princess, I’m going back first.”
“Okay.”
The servants helped carry the suitcase upstairs, and the other bodyguards also quickly dispersed.
Mo Weiyi, listening to the faint movements from upstairs, sat back down on the sofa.
About ten minutes later, Aunt Zhou suddenly hurried down the stairs, “Princess.”
Mo Weiyi looked up at her, “What’s the matter?”
“Princess, you should go up and have a look,” Aunt Zhou said quietly, “Young Master Xiao is saying he wants to move to the secondary bedroom next door. He’s already having people pack up his things.”
Mo Weiyi immediately stood up and went upstairs.
**
The door to the master bedroom on the second floor was open. As Mo Weiyi approached, she saw a servant packing clothes in front of the closet.
The closet doors were open. Half of them held her clothes, neatly hung, while the other half, belonging to the man’s shirts, was already emptied by a large margin.
She frowned, turned, and walked toward the secondary bedroom next door.
The room door wasn’t closed, and as she entered, she saw Xiao Yebai sitting behind a coffee table on the sofa, looking at a computer, holding a mobile phone in his hand and talking as if he were busy with work.
Hearing her, he glanced up, then quickly looked away, “If you have any questions, ask me on WeChat later. I’m hanging up now.”
He put down his phone and stood up, “Is there something you need?”
Mo Weiyi’s eyelid twitched.
Clasping her fingers together, she asked, “What is this? Are we separating?”
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
Xiao Yebai said, “Yes.”
All Mo Weiyi could feel was her heart suddenly accelerating. She looked at the man with cold eyes and brows, “You mean… you agree to divorce me?”
Xiao Yebai continued, “Yes.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
The man’s entire demeanor was relaxed, his expression and tone indifferent, completely lacking the darkness and anger from a few days ago when he learned of her miscarriage outside the operating room.
This calm version of him was just as people usually perceived him.
Yet Mo Weiyi still found it somewhat unbelievable.
Although she had thought that since she had aborted the child, his angry agreement to divorce would be normal.
But she felt that his quick consent was not his usual style.
“What are your conditions?” Mo Weiyi asked.
“I’ve already asked Lu, the lawyer, to draft the divorce agreement; the conditions are all listed in there.” Xiao Yebai spoke in an even tone, showing not the slightest emotion, as if he was simply detailing work arrangements.
Mo Weiyi truly hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly.
“Really?” she blurted out, “You aren’t planning any tricks, are you?”
Xiao Yebai said indifferently, “For the sake of divorce, you did not hesitate to abort my child. I really can’t think of any reason to continue this marriage.”
Mo Weiyi looked at him, her fingers unconsciously clenching tighter.
“Isn’t this what you hoped for?” Xiao Yebai suddenly curled his lip, “Why do I see that you do not seem happy at all?”
Upon hearing this, Mo Weiyi immediately turned around, presenting her back to him, and said, “Then please have someone send over the divorce agreement as soon as possible. Before the signature is on the paper, I can’t be at ease, let alone happy.”
“Oh.” The man’s indifferent voice came from behind her, “Lu, the lawyer, will be here later.”
“Fine.” Mo Weiyi then left.
**
She returned to the bedroom and sat there watching as the servant moved all of the man’s belongings to the next room.
Her facial expression was numb.
Then she suddenly realized there were many details she had not clarified with Xiao Yebai, but…
Just the thought of Xiao Yebai’s tone and expression from earlier made Mo Weiyi instantly calm down again.
…
An hour later, Lu Chenyu arrived at the villa.
In the study, he placed two copies of the divorce agreement in front of Xiao Yebai and Mo Weiyi, “Please review the divorce agreement. If there are no problems, just signing will suffice.”
Mo Weiyi picked up the divorce agreement and began to read.
Lu Chenyu explained, “According to the agreement, all properties currently owned by both parties, including shares held in the Mo Group, will remain unchanged. In addition, the man will provide the woman with a monthly alimony of 5 million.”
Mo Weiyi owned shares in the Mo Group, and just from dividends, she could collect a substantial sum each year.
Therefore, upon hearing this figure, she was somewhat surprised and quickly looked up at Xiao Yebai.
The man was wearing scholarly glasses, his eyes were lowered, and he was reading the agreement methodically, his expression composed as if he was completely unresponsive to her surprise.
“Do either of you have any questions?” Lu Chenyu asked.
Xiao Yebai did not speak.
Mo Weiyi said, “I don’t.”
Lu Chenyu looked towards Xiao Yebai.
“Keep the divorce confidential for the time being,” he said indifferently.
Lu Chenyu then looked back at Mo Weiyi.
She quickly nodded, “That’s fine.”
That’s what she had in mind anyway.
Even if the two got divorced, they couldn’t publicize it for everyone to know, especially not allowing their grandfather to find out.
Xiao Yebai continued, “After the divorce, both parties must continue living here.”
Mo Weiyi instinctively rejected, “I want to move back to the old house…”
“No.” Xiao Yebai refused.
“Why not? Since we’re divorced, I can’t possibly continue living with you.”
Xiao Yebai stated plainly, “If you move back to the old house, the servants will soon know there’s a problem with our marriage, and it would only be a matter of time before they tell my father, and sooner or later, grandfather will find out.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
“I’ll stay in the guest bedroom, go to work every day, and there will hardly be any chance for us to meet,” Xiao Yebai added after finishing, “Don’t worry, I won’t touch you.”
Mo Weiyi again: “…”
Lu Chenyu cleared his throat, “Since the two of you have so many disagreements, this divorce agreement might still need further improvement. I suggest you discuss it in detail together…”
“No need!” Mo Weiyi, fearing the night might bring more troubles, hurriedly said, “Let’s just go with this agreement, everything else I’ll agree to his terms.”
Hearing her words, Xiao Yebai looked up at her.
Her gaze was deep.
By the time Mo Weiyi became conscious and turned her head to look over, the man had already shifted his gaze away.
Then he said indifferently, “I have no objections.”
Lu Chenyu’s mouth twitched slightly, “Since neither of you has any objections, then please sign here, and as of today, this divorce agreement will immediately take effect.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yebai picked up the pen and fluidly signed his name at the designated spot.
Watching him sign without a trace of hesitation, Mo Weiyi’s heart couldn’t help but experience a ripple of emotion.
Then, she quickly picked up the pen and signed her own name as well.
**
After signing, Lu Chenyu left.
Xiao Yebai went down to the study on the first floor.
At noon, Aunt Zhou came up to call her down for lunch.
Mo Weiyi arrived at the dining room and found Xiao Yebai already seated at the table.
He still had the same cold and indifferent demeanor. Because his right hand was wrapped in gauze, he could only use his left hand to eat, which made his movements somewhat slow, but smooth enough, and although not as graceful and easy as before, he didn’t appear disheveled.
After all, he was a man who always maintained a poker face and composure no matter what he did.
Mo Weiyi glanced at him, then sat opposite him at the dining table and quietly began eating.
Throughout the process, there was no communication between them.
Apart from the sound of bowls and chopsticks clinking, the dining room was exceptionally quiet.
…
After finishing the meal, Xiao Yebai put down his tableware and left the dining room to return once more to the study.
From beginning to end, he didn’t say a word to her, nor did he give her a single glance, treating her as if she were air, as if she didn’t exist at all.
Mo Weiyi watched his receding figure, her fingers clutching the chopsticks unconsciously tightening.
…
The dinner was the same, each sitting at their respective ends of the table, continuing the practice of silence is golden.
After finishing dinner, Xiao Yebai still went into the study to work, while Mo Weiyi immediately said, “Aunt Zhou, from now on, please separate my meals from his. Call me after he has finished, or just bring my meals directly to my room.”
Aunt Zhou: “…”
**
The next afternoon, Mo Weiyi couldn’t hold back and dialed Su Wanwan’s number.
Upon hearing that the two of them had indeed signed the divorce papers, Su Wanwan was quite surprised, “Then what do you plan to do next?”
Mo Weiyi lay lazily on the sofa, half-squinting her cat-like eyes at the pink floral wallpaper on the wall, and murmured, “I don’t know.”
She had thought there might still be negotiations to continue, a drawn-out divorce battle with him, but she didn’t expect him to agree so quickly…
Because it went too smoothly, she felt somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Moreover, since Xiao Yebai returned yesterday, apart from the necessary communication regarding the divorce, he treated her as if she were air for the rest of the time.
His current demeanor was as if he had returned to how he was 10 years ago when he first joined the Mo Family—closed off, silent, refusing any form of communication.
Honestly, Mo Weiyi felt pretty oppressed inside.
Because his attitude seemed to clearly tell her that the reason he agreed to the divorce was because the child in her womb was gone.
He was provoked by the fact that she had secretly gone for an abortion!
He was very angry and outraged, completely disappointed in her for this, and his heart had turned cold!
He had been unwilling to divorce before because of the child, but now that the child was gone, there was no need for him to continue this marriage…
Su Wanwan asked her, “What will you do when your belly starts to show after waiting another two months, and if he finds out you didn’t abort the child?”
Mo Weiyi didn’t speak.
What would she do?
She really hadn’t thought about that.
Yesterday, in the operating room, preparing for the surgery, she suddenly backed out.
The doctor and the nurse were annoyed, but she struggled like a madwoman…
“Then don’t think about it for now,” Su Wanwan advised her. “Just rest well at home for the time being. Anyway, in a little while, your grandfather will probably be recovered. By then, with your grandfather backing you up, what is there to fear?”
Mo Weiyi nodded.
That was all she could do for now.
**
Su Wanwan had just arrived in the lobby on the first floor of the Huashang Hotel at this time.
Yan Shunhua had already chosen the script—a modern-themed detective mystery film. Although it was not any popular major IP, since the script had been unanimously selected and approved by the entire studio, and Yan Shunhua himself was very satisfied, he quickly signed with the scriptwriter.
Casting officially began these few days. Su Wanwan was coming here for the first time today, and just as she arrived at the audition scene, Mary had just sent off a famous big-name agent in the industry.
“Wanwan, wait here for a moment; the chairman is in the middle of auditions. I’ll come to get you in a bit,” Mary said.
“Alright.”
After Mary left, Su Wanwan waited in the lounge, occasionally helping her colleagues out.
Since it was her first time there, she didn’t recognize many of the staff, who were presumably part of the production crew.
Apart from that were the stars and artists sent by various major talent agencies.
Yan Shunhua was an internationally awarded director, and since this movie was a joint investment by the Gu Family and Huo Yuan, with a strong cast and a professional team, the goal was to win awards. Thus, each artist dressed up meticulously, appearing in full regalia, hoping to land one of the roles.
Su Wanwan didn’t pay much attention to entertainment news and knew few celebrities. She wasn’t particularly interested in them, and she kept herself busy until suddenly, a familiar voice called out.
“Junior Sister!”
Before she could react, she was already in Ye Qitian’s embrace.
Su Wanwan was first surprised, then hurriedly pushed him away, “Why are you here?”
People around them had already started to gossip.
Su Wanwan belatedly realized, right, Ye Qitian was now a somewhat famous young idol star.
There were so many stars and agents present, all from the same industry, and they’d certainly know each other.
Some were even his competitors.
For a rising idol like Ye Qitian, the last thing he needed was for some scandal about his private life to suddenly break out…
But Ye Qitian didn’t care and hugged her tightly, “What’s the matter? We haven’t seen each other for so long, why are you avoiding a hug?”
After saying that, he bent down and stretched his hands out, “No, I have to give you a princess carry to see if you’ve gained weight recently!”
Luckily, his agent had already rushed over and pulled him back, “Tian, what are you doing? There are so many people watching, be mindful of your image, will you?”
Tian glared at him impatiently, “Mind what image? This is my junior sister!”
Su Wanwan remembered that his agent used to be a man named Xie Ding. Had he changed agents?
“Junior sister?” The agent immediately turned towards Su Wanwan, sizing her up and down with an impressed look, “Little girl, you’ve got potential. Which agency are you from? Are you here for an audition too? Which role? Would you consider switching to work with me?”
Su Wanwan hadn’t said anything yet…
“Are you freaking stupid? My junior sister is pure and innocent. How could she possibly join the entertainment industry? Get lost! She’s still a student.”
The agent still wasn’t giving up, “A student? How old is she…”
“F*ck off, just get lost!” Ye Qitian cursed fiercely and even kicked out.
The agent dodged hurriedly, “Tian, don’t get angry, I was just joking…”
“What the f*ck sort of joke is that? Keep it up, and I’ll fire your ass!”
Su Wanwan really wanted to roll her eyes, “Can’t you be a little more mindful of your image?”
People around them had been watching them for a while now, and she could almost predict that the internet would soon be abuzz with rumors about Ye Qitian spewing vulgarity, acting like a diva, and speaking rudely to his agent, treating him like less than a person…
Though Su Wanwan didn’t follow entertainment news closely, she’d often heard her colleagues and classmates mention such things.
Indeed, Ye Qitian had a very standard, slightly wicked, comic book male face, and as an overseas returnee, he’d attracted a group of irrational female fans once he’d debuted. Fame brought scandals indeed…
“Junior Sister, what are you doing here?” Ye Qitian spoke to Su Wanwan with undeniable tenderness, his mouth still smiling.
Su Wanwan replied, “I’m the director’s assistant and came here to help today.”
“Oh, that’s the case.”
Ye Qitian didn’t have much of a reaction, but the agent beside him suddenly lit up, “You’re Yan Director’s assistant?”
Su Wanwan nodded and added quickly, “But I’m just an intern.”
The agent’s attitude changed completely, though.
He took out his business card and handed it to her with both hands, his tone overly respectful, “Hello, I’m an agent from Huanyu Media. I’m here today for Tian’s audition for the male second lead. I think his image is particularly suited to the refined and elegant character of the second male lead. What do you think?”
Su Wanwan blinked and then looked at Ye Qitian.
“What’s with that look?” Ye Qitian got annoyed.
It was one thing for others to look down on him, to think he had no chance for the role.
But for his junior sister to do so…
That hurt.
Sure enough.
“I don’t think it’s suitable.”
Ye Qitian’s face darkened.
So did his agent’s. But he quickly perked up again, “Then which role do you think he suits? Our Tian is very obedient. He can take any role, the price is negotiable, as long as he can join the production…”
“I’m sorry, I’m just an intern assistant, I don’t have the authority to decide on roles.” Su Wanwan explained.
“How could that be? Since you’re Director Yan’s assistant and Tian’s junior sister, just a few good words from you would definitely secure the role.” The agent winked, “Please help a brother out, miss. Rest assured, your kindness won’t be forgotten in the future.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
It was a relief when a staff member started calling out, “Next, Huanyu Media, Ye Qitian.”
“It’s your turn.” Su Wanwan said quickly.
The agent called out, “Coming, coming, right away.”
After saying that, he didn’t forget to slip his business card into Su Wanwan’s hand and pulled Ye Qitian towards the audition room.
Clutching the business card, it took Su Wanwan a moment to realize that everyone around her was staring.
And several were whispering among themselves.
Cough cough.
Su Wanwan sensed that something was off and seeing someone seemed about to approach her, she quickly turned and hurried towards the restroom.
