He Jiaxuan was depressed. His wife"s forceful questioning made him even more a
oyed. He sneered, "There"s no point in asking this question anymore. Xia Shu Ran, you know what you did."
Xia Shu Ran"s expression stiffened before the man violently shook her off. She was so angry that her entire body trembled. What are you mad at me for? "
"Don"t you know that your father has withdrawn 200 million yuan?" He Jiaxuan"s company had recently been in a state of upheaval. Because of his father-in-law"s sudden withdrawal, the construction work had been stagnant. He was currently working on the recovery of the company"s funds, which made him very frustrated.
Hearing this, Xia Shu Ran immediately understood what was going on.
"My dad took a fancy to a project and needed to reorganize his funds to bid for it. It"s not what you think." Xia Shu Ran quickly explained.
"But he should know that I can"t move 200 million to fill the hole in a short amount of time. Is he trying to take care of me?" He Jiaxuan mocked.
"How can you say that about my father? How much did my father help you when we were married? Have you forgotten? Now that my dad"s company is in trouble, can"t you understand him? " Xia Shu Ran felt wronged.
He Jiaxuan sneered, mocking himself, "If I hadn"t been so greedy and wholeheartedly developed the project in my hands, maybe I would have married Xia Xinyan. I wouldn"t have to endure your temper."
"Good, you finally said those words. You"re regretting marrying me, and you"re still thinking about that b.i.t.c.h Xia Xin." Xia Shu Ran instantly collapsed as she cried out in pain and rage.
"Xia Shu Ran, if you still want to live a good life then stop caring about me. All these years, I"ve had enough of your discipline. Do you know how people laugh at me outside? You say that I"m under the control of my wife, and even the employees of our company are talking about me behind my back. He Jiaxuan also shouted loudly, venting out his years of resentment.
"But when we were married, did you promise me that you would only listen to me for the rest of your life? Are these lies?" Xia Shuyan felt like she was. .h.i.t in the head, waking her up. She finally realized that He Jiaxuan didn"t love her anymore.
This fact was difficult for her to accept. Her heart felt as if a needle was p.r.i.c.king her, and the pain caused her entire body to tremble.
He Jiaxuan was speechless. When they were first married, he did say those words, but at that time, for the sake of the company"s development, he could say the sweetest words of love in the world to her.
"I"ve always felt that our marriage was more like a business marriage. It was because you wanted too much from me, that you felt disappointed." He Jiaxuan calmed down and said.
"I only married you because I love you. It"s not a business marriage, not an exchange of benefits. I"m just like all wives. I hope that you can use your love for me. I hope that you can spend less time with me and return home to accompany me more. " Xia Shu Ran cried out in pain. She felt like she was making a joke out of herself.
Love is a luxury that you might not even meet in your entire life. Xia Shu Ran, I have let you down in many ways over the past few years of my wife"s life. Let"s get divorced. He Jiaxuan finally made his decision. He really didn"t want to waste any more time to start a painful marriage.
"Divorce? If I don"t agree, I won"t agree even if I die. Even if you don"t love me, what about our daughter? Don"t you love it? " Xia Shu Ran was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. His expression was twisted as he roared in anger.
"My parents have always been the ones to bring the children. They are also close to them." He Jiaxuan calmly made a statement.
Xia Shu Ran"s body stiffened as his face paled. Indeed, his two daughters had always been close with their parents-in-law, but not as intimate. Only now did Xia Shu Ran realize how much of a failed mother he was.
"Which fox spirit did you hook up with again? Or do you think you still have a chance to be together with Xia Xin? "He Jiaxuan, you know my personality. I"m not having a good time, and I won"t let those people who ruined my happiness have a good time either." After saying that, Xia Shu Ran turned and ran upstairs, his heart burning with hatred.
She was unwilling to admit that she was the one who courted death in this marriage. She felt that everything was happening because of Xia Xinyan. She was the culprit, so she would not let her off.
As the sky darkened, Xia Xinyan was having di
er with Ji Mucheng in the hotel when the phone rang. He saw his mother calling and quickly answered.
It was a video call. The moment the camera co
ected, Xia Yu Chen"s pretty face appeared.
"Daddy, where"s Mommy?" The little guy seemed to be having fun.
Ji Mu Cheng immediately s.h.i.+fted the camera to Xia Xin Nian. Xia Xin couldn"t help but wave at her son as she smiled and asked, "Yu Chen, are you enjoying yourself at your grandparents" house?"
"I"m very happy. My little aunt has always been playing with me." Xia Yu Chen strongly nodded his head and said with a smile.
"Then you must listen to them. Don"t be naughty, don"t cause trouble." Xia Xinyan reminded her softly.
Tang Youyou appeared on the other side of the camera. She had a gentle look in her eyes as she smiled and said, "Yu Chen is very obedient and not mischievous at all."
When the little guy heard this, he made a face at the side and ran off.
Tang Youyou looked at her son"s situation and reminded him with a smile, "Xin, you should take her for a walk when you"re free, I believe she hasn"t been home for many years. With how the country has changed, there must be many things you don"t understand."
Ji Mu Cheng nodded as he replied, "I"ll bring her out to relax. Mom, I"ll hang up first. I"m eating di
er right now."
"Alright, leave Yu Chen with us. You guys have fun. Have fun." Tang Youyou said with a smile.
Xia Xinyan spoke up from the side, embarra.s.sed, "Thank you, aunt and uncle."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Mu Cheng looked at Xia Xin and asked, "Don"t you want to call me dad and mom?"
Xia Xinyan became shy, "We haven"t even married yet, and I"m already calling her this. Don"t you think I can"t wait to get married?"
"Don"t worry, I told my parents that we"ll get engaged in the middle of next month and get married before the end of the year." Ji Mu Cheng looked at the candlelight, her clear eyes reminding her of the good news.
"Why are they in such a hurry?" Xia Xinyan"s heartbeat slightly quickened.
"Since you can"t find anyone else, it"s better for us to speed up our pace." Ji Mu Cheng"s gaze turned fiery, and his words were laced with a hidden meaning.
Xia Xin rolled her eyes at him, "Of course I don"t have any other thoughts. I"m just afraid that you haven"t thought it through properly. What if you get married and you regret it?"
"I don"t regret it." The man reached over and patted her on the back, replying in a low but firm voice.
