Chapter 309 Lu Boyan, I Want a Divorce (4)
“Lu Boyan,” Su Jianan suddenly called him by his full name, and her voice was as cold as the winter wind, “I want a divorce.”
Her voice was very light, but so firm.
It seemed that it was not a decision she had made in a short time, driven by bad emotions, but… planned for a long time.
Lu Boyan’s face went serious in an instant. “Jianan.” The low and dangerous tone seemed to warn Su Jianan.
He had said long ago that she should not easily say the word “divorce”.
Su Jianan wiped the tears from her face and raised her head to meet Lu Boyan’s gaze. “I am not angry, I am serious.”
Her emphasis made Lu Boyan’s pupils violently shrink, and he grabbed her hand. “Do you know what you are talking about?”
“…I know,” Su Jianan said with a sigh of relief, “I am asking you for a divorce.”
“Just because of what happened in the morning?” Lu Boyan could not believe it.
“Isn’t it enough!?” Su Jianan raised her voice, struggled, but Lu Boyan’s hand caught her tightly and she couldn’t break away.
She looked at him with full tears, but she saw some shock from his eyes and the remaining was… heartache.
In an instant, it seemed that there was a sharp knife stabbing into Su Jianan’s heart, and she was in more pain than Lu Boyan, being overwhelmed with sorrow.
No matter how deep and pained she was, she could only endure it.
“All you see is Han Ruoxi’s trap.” Lu Boyan explained to Su Jianan as calmly as possible, and told her about what happened from the day before until then.
“Nothing happened between the two of you?” Su Jianan repeated that sentence which had been repeatedly emphasized by Lu Boyan and suddenly laughed. “Why did Huinan Bank suddenly agree to the loan? And the money has been transferred to the Lu Enterprises’ account!”
In fact, she was the prettiest when she laughed, the smile was always warm and clean. However, at the moment, her lips were only left with a piece of coolness.
She didn’t believe him—Lu Boyan’s heart went cold bit by bit…
“Do you know how Han Ruoxi told me?” Su Jianan continued, “She said, you told her that you needed the loan from Huinan Bank, and you were willing to do anything for it.”
“So you believe her words, believe what happened between me and her?” Lu Boyan’s look had revealed some anger.
“…” Su Jianan turned her head, no matter whether it was right or not, she just believed it.
Lu Boyan smiled coldly, and was just about to say that he still disdained to use that method, when the phone in his jacket suddenly rang. He subconsciously was about to hang up the phone, but saw the name of Shen Yuechuan on the screen; he picked it up.
“Look at the news!” Shen Yuechuan was hurried, which was a rare occurrence. “What’s going on!? The media are all talking, and my phone is about to burst!”
Lu Boyan rubbed his temple and replied, “I will ask Fang Qize about it.”
“…” Shen Yuechuan at the other end of the phone was stunned. “What does it have to do with Fang Qize? I am not talking about the news that Huinan Bank agreed to give Lu Enterprises loan. Isn’t the loan what you talked with Fang Qize yesterday?”
Lu Boyan frowned. “Then what are you talking about?”
Shen Yuechuan sent a web link directly, and Lu Boyan clicked it. The t.i.tle was actually—
“The president’s wife of Lu Enterprises spent two hours with a strange man in a hotel. Lu Enterprises’ crisis, the hostess is also suspected to have an affair.”
Pulling down was a news picture, and the picture was not someone else, it was Su Jianan and… Jiang Shaokai.
It could be seen clearly that Su Jianan and Jiang Shaokai entered the hotel together. They walked side by side, and the behavior was not so close, but at a glance, the relationship between them was extraordinary.
Further down was the content of the report.
The report said that the reporter happened to be doing an interview at the hotel. He accidentally saw a strange man holding Su Jianan and heading to the hotel. According to the hotel waiter, they entered the same room and came out after a long time.
Every word of the text was imaginative.
The reporter guessed at the end whether it would be because Lu Enterprises was going bankrupt and Lu Boyan was no longer a bachelor who was as powerful as before, so Su Jianan wanted to find another man to ensure that she could continue her usual lifestyle.
Lu Boyan squinted his eyes with danger and handed the phone to Su Jianan. “What were you doing with Jiang Shaokai in the hotel?”
Su Jianan’s brain was blank for half a second. She looked after taking the mobile phone; she suddenly Kang Ruicheng’s words at the hotel on that same day.
Kang Ruicheng asked her, go in and out the hotel with a man during the day, wasn’t she afraid of being caught by the media and make Lu Boyan misunderstand?
At the moment, it seemed that everything was arranged by Kang Ruicheng. The information he leaked to the reporter was probably that “Lu Boyan’s wife had an affair, and in the afternoon she would go to the hotel with a man to get a room”, so the reporter dared to make such a bold guess.
Moreover, Kang Ruicheng had long expected she would not explain it to Lu Boyan so that he would not be exposed.
She looked at Lu Boyan. Except for the danger at the bottom of his eyes, there was no anger on his face, and he didn’t scold her coldly.
She was being suspicious of Lu Boyan, while he… still believed her.
It was only at that time that his trust became a powerful weapon to sting Su Jianan, and it was destined to be used by Su Jianan.
Su Jianan said word by word at a time, “A man and a woman went to the hotel and stayed in the same room for a long time. What do you think they can do? I have nothing to explain, you…”
“Su Jianan!” Lu Boyan interrupted Su Jianan’s words without warning. He bit his teeth and said, “I want to hear the truth!”
“I am telling the truth.” Su Jianan turned her face away, and couldn’t bear to face his anger and heartache. “Since I was photographed by a reporter, I don’t want to lie to you again. The reporter guessed… there is nothing wrong with it.”
Lu Boyan’s hand slowly tightened, clenched into a fist, and the knuckles were white.
He slammed his fists and struck the mirror behind Su Jianan.
“Oh la la-” The mirror was torn apart and fell to the ground, making a mourning, shattering sound.
Every piece of broken mirror, when it fell, seemed to have scratched on Su Jianan’s heart. It was too late to consider whether it was appropriate, she had been subconsciously pulled up Lu Boyan’s hand—
Blood had long blurred his flesh, and the scarlet blood covered countless scars.
The more she worried, the colder Lu Boyan’s smile was. “Do you still want to admit that you slept with Jiang Shaokai?”
Su Jianan suddenly was sober and loosened his hand. “Did I deny it? Did you not compromise with Han Ruoxi for the loan? We… are just the same.”
“Su Jianan!”
Lu Boyan snorted and his chest went violently up and down, as if he were going to tear her apart.
She clearly knew that he didn’t mean that. Why was she unwilling to explain things clearly?
She clearly knew that as long as she denied it, he would not hesitate to believe.
Temples were suddenly hurting, and once again, the phone rang at an untimely moment. It was still Shen Yuechuan.
“Speak!” Lu Boyan only said one word embedded with danger.
“Ehh…” Shen Yuechuan was shocked and realized that Lu Boyan was on the verge of anger. He said quickly, “The news that Huinan Bank agreed to give us the loan have been distributed. Many partners contacted me to talk about cooperation, you… need to head to the company as soon as possible. Many things are waiting for you to be managed.”
Lu Boyan hung up the phone and looked at Su Jianan coldly. “I will find out what you did with Jiang Shaokai in the hotel. I don’t want to listen to you talking about the divorce again!”
He turned to go downstairs. Uncle Xu felt from his look that something was wrong, and saw the blood on his hand. He then held him back and called Aunt Liu to get the medicine cabinet.
Aunt Liu’s movement was very quick. She took the medicine cabinet and said, “I will go up to call Young Madam, she’s good at it.”
Uncle Xu had noticed that the young couple had a fight, so he pulled Aunt Liu and simply treated the wound for Lu Boyan, and asked, “Shall we prepare the car or your breakfast?”
“Get the car,” Lu Boyan didn’t have the appet.i.te for breakfast. He walked out a few steps, then suddenly stopped and said, “Wherever Jianan is going, stop her.”
After that, he stepped out firmly, and his back was full of a chill.
Uncle Xu sighed and said to himself, “There was such a big thing happening in the company some time ago. When the company’s problems were about to be solved, how could they have a fight?”
At that time, Aunt Liu also reacted and asked, “Shall we call the old madam?”
“It should be just a little quarrel.” Uncle Xu still did not believe that Su Jianan and Lu Boyan could start a fight, saying, “let’s wait and see. If things are still serious at night then we’ll call the old madam.”
Before Uncle Xu finished, they saw Su Jianan going downstairs and dragging a suitcase.
“Young Madam!” Aunt Liu rushed up and intercepted Su Jianan in the middle of the stairs. “What are you doing? Let’s talk about it when the young master comes back at night, it will be fine if you talk about it. It only hurts feelings if you do this.”
“We have no misunderstandings.” Su Jianan said with her head bowed.
Aunt Liu “squeaked” and grabbed Su Jianan’s suitcase, then moved it back to the room. “The young master said, no matter where you were going today, you must stop and wait for him to come back.”
Su Jianan knew that Aunt Liu was not malicious so she could not blame her. She didn’t know what other methods she could use and she couldn’t leave that day.
Su Jianan had to make a temporary compromise. She followed Aunt Liu back to the room and said, “Aunt Liu, you can leave, I want to stay alone for a while.”
“…okay.”
Before Aunt Liu took a few steps and was stopped by Su Jianan. She hesitated and asked, “The wound in his hand…”
“Do not worry,” Aunt Liu knew that Su Jianan still cared about Lu Boyan. She smiled and said, “Uncle Xu helped the young master with it.”
Su Jianan nodded and fell into silence.
Aunt Liu originally thought about talking to Su Jianan, but after getting along for more than half a year, she had known that Su Jianan was not an unreasonable person. That contradiction still required her and Lu Boyan to talk openly and honestly.
When Su Jianan went to the closet to clean up the mirror fragments and wipe the blood on the floor, she didn’t know why her sense of smell suddenly became very sensitive; and she clearly perceived the pungent smell of blood.
At school, in the dissection room, she had long been accustomed to smells other than the smell of blood. Why did she become so sensitive suddenly?
After thinking about it, there was no clue, and Su Jianan left it behind.
The most important thing at the moment was figuring how to get out of there. After all, Kang Ruicheng had only given her three days.
Leaving…
Su Jianan’s eyes suddenly felt warm when thinking about the word, and she looked up, trying to push her tears back, but at that moment, a few drops of tears splashed on the floor.
It hurt so much, but she was willing to do so.
As long as she withstood that pain, Lu Enterprises would be able to return to life, and nothing would happen to Lu Boyan.
Compared with Lu Boyan and his efforts, her pain was almost negligible.
