Lu Bei Chuan chuckled, not responding.
This sarcastic demeanor completely enraged An Xia.
One month! A duration of one month!
An Xia now only wanted to sever all ties with this Cheater (scumbag) in the shortest amount of time possible.
She never wanted to have any contact with him again in this lifetime.
I will gather the two million within a month and return it to you!
Having lived under the same roof with her for many years, practically watching her grow up, Lu Bei Chuan saw through An Xia’s impulsive words spoken in anger at a glance.
However, the more impulsive and angry she became, the better Lu Bei Chuan felt.
So good that he was even willing to generously extend the deadline for An Xia.
I won’t bother calculating those odd amounts; I’ll only take the full two million. You don’t need to gather it all within a month. Contact me whenever you’re ready. As long as you offer up the two million in full, I’ll immediately go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with you to complete the procedures.
Lu Bei Chuan’s tone was leisurely, as if he were bestowing some great favor upon An Xia, acting high and mighty.
An Xia was so angry that her heart was congested for a moment, unable to squeeze out even half a word.
The more generous he was, the more it represented how much he looked down on her.
At this moment, An Xia really wanted to retort firmly, saying that she didn’t need his generosity, that she could afford to pay back the full amount without him reducing the odd amounts, and that she could prepare the money in time without him extending the deadline.
But calming down, reality was far more important than face.
If she boasted but failed to gather the more than twenty million within a month, it would become even more of a joke.
Moreover, the divorce would have to be interrupted and couldn’t proceed smoothly.
Having finally gotten Lu Bei Chuan to agree, An Xia didn’t want any other changes to occur.
Enduring for a moment brings calm and tranquility; although it was humiliating, in order to achieve her goal and successfully get divorced, An Xia could only endure.
Seeing her agree, Lu Bei Chuan felt uncomfortable again.
He pursed his lips and made his request.
Before the divorce, you must live in Tianzhu Garden and are not allowed to move out.
An Xia frowned, her resistance almost instinctively overflowing.
Why?!
Living separately before the divorce, do you think it looks good for this matter to spread? Lu Bei Chuan offered a seemingly reasonable excuse.
But An Xia didn’t want to pay attention to it.
It’s not good for her to live separately.
Then is it good for him to have an affair during the marriage?
This excuse is too double standard.
However, in order to successfully get divorced, it didn’t matter whether the excuse was double standard or not.
Okay.
She agreed very obediently again.
Lu Bei Chuan felt more and more uncomfortable.
In order to get divorced, she was really easy to talk to, willing to compromise on any condition.
Lu Bei Chuan snorted coldly, relentless.
Grandma’s health hasn’t been very good recently, and I’m afraid that if the news of the divorce spreads and she finds out, it will affect her recovery.
I know.
An Xia interrupted before Lu Bei Chuan could finish speaking.
In the entire Lu family, only Grandma and Jing Yang were truly sincere to her.
She naturally wouldn’t want to make Grandma and Jing Yang sad.
Lu Bei Chuan was momentarily at a loss for words.
Now, only Grandma in the entire Lu family could evoke such emotions in her.
In the past, this was his exclusive privilege.
Women are indeed fickle creatures.
I’m not just talking about you. If you tell others about this, others will also spread the news to Grandma’s ears.
Lu Bei Chuan continued.
An Xia interrupted impatiently.
Are you done yet?
Lu Bei Chuan: …
Her temper is really getting bigger and bigger now.
She gets anxious and red-faced after only a few words.
I said I wouldn’t spread it, what are you worried about!
An Xia didn’t want to listen to his nagging anymore.
He was the one who did something wrong, but he put on a high and mighty appearance and kept rambling on and on. It was really annoying.
Because you’ve already spread it. Lu Bei Chuan didn’t mind being blunt.
He wasn’t quite sure about her menopausal temperament now, but Lu Bei Chuan still understood her nature to some extent.
An Xia may not know about those feelings that Lu Zi Xing secretly harbored and those little actions he took behind her back.
If she had known earlier, she would not have allowed Lu Zi Xing to continue staying by her side as a good friend and playmate.
She had been focusing on avoiding suspicion since marriage.
Her contact with the opposite sex was minimal.
If she knew that Lu Zi Xing had hidden those thoughts from her…
I haven’t told anyone! An Xia clarified.
Lu Bei Chuan’s gaze was cold.
Is that so? Then how did Lu Zi Xing know?
An Xia was stunned.
He even fought with his eldest brother, with whom he shares bones and blood, in order to restore your freedom. Lu Bei Chuan said slowly, word by word.
His cold gaze was full of scrutiny towards An Xia.
An Xia was even more confused.
What was going on?
How could Lu Zi Xing know about her divorce?
And he even fought with Lu Bei Chuan over this matter?
Although Lu Zi Xing had a somewhat impulsive personality, he wasn’t completely out of control. Even if he was impulsive, reason still coexisted to some extent.
How dare he fight Lu Bei Chuan?
You’re talking nonsense. An Xia didn’t believe it.
Lu Zi Xing didn’t seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing at all.
Lu Bei Chuan choked, almost suffocating.
She didn’t believe it?
She would rather believe Lu Zi Xing than believe his words?
Was it necessary for him to lie to her? Lu Bei Chuan was furious.
It seemed that his position in her heart was not even as good as that of Lu Zi Xing, that idiot.
An Xia insisted on her own opinion and even asked Lu Bei Chuan in return: Was it necessary for him to hit you?
At the end of her words, An Xia added: I understand Zi Xing. Even if he really hit you, it must be because you did something particularly deserving of a beating.
Lu Bei Chuan was so angry that he almost couldn’t speak, and sneered: Then you really don’t understand men.
Hearing this, An Xia also sneered: Yes. Of course I don’t understand. I don’t even understand the person who has been sleeping next to me for three years, so how can I understand a cousin whom I haven’t seen for several years.
Lu Bei Chuan: …
He felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
You are unreasonable! Lu Bei Chuan was exasperated.
This was the first time An Xia had seen such an expression on Lu Bei Chuan’s face, and she found it extremely interesting.
So he would also have a day when he was so angry that he jumped up and down.
It really warmed her heart to see it.
After reaching a consensus, An Xia stayed in the hospital obediently for a few days.
She didn’t really like hospitals.
Because she had experienced too many partings in the hospital.
But thinking that she would have to face Lu Bei Chuan’s face every day after returning to Tianzhu Garden, An Xia felt even more disgusted.
Lu Bei Chuan didn’t know what he had been possessed by recently.
He used to not come home for months at a time, but now he actually came home every day.
If Aunt Liu hadn’t mentioned it, An Xia really wouldn’t have believed it.
But whether he was possessed or something else, these things had nothing to do with her now.
Soon, as long as she gathered twenty million, she would be able to get divorced smoothly. At that time, Lu Bei Chuan’s life and death would have nothing to do with her.
