Jiang Yue transmigrated into a novel.
She became the villainous supporting character in a CEO romance novel.
In the original story, she was pure evil—drugging the male lead, abusing the...
The system is stubborn, firmly believing that the plot's direction is unchangeable.
How could the male lead not mention divorce? Just like how could he not fall in love with his beloved female lead?!
[There are still several months until next February, baby, don't worry.]
Jiang Yue had long seen through this useless system; it was nothing more than a quack strategist who, apart from occasionally popping up like a little eunuch to broadcast information, was completely useless.
Although Jiang Yue usually does things as she pleases, she is never ambiguous when it comes to serious matters. Since she has already made this plan, she will prepare in advance.
The next day, Jiang Yue went to the law firm while she had some free time.
This law firm was also carefully selected by her; it is known for its handling of divorce cases and always manages to secure greater benefits for its clients within the marriage.
Jiang Yue wants a divorce, and she should get what she's entitled to.
There's also the issue of child custody after a divorce.
Jiang Yue didn't love her son so much that she would go to any lengths to snatch him from the Zhou family and bring him to her side. Besides, raising a child takes a lot of time and money, so why would she make things difficult for herself?
Therefore, she will not fight for custody of the child.
There have always been many paparazzi watching Jiang Yue, so she made a special effort to disguise herself when she went out today, wearing an elegant beret, and sunglasses and a mask were essential items.
The head of the law firm personally received this distinguished guest.
Those in their line of work always see many wealthy and influential people.
Even so, the person in charge was still very surprised to learn Jiang Yue's identity. The Zhou family held an unshakeable position in Beijing, with high-ranking and powerful figures in both the military and political spheres.
Generally speaking, people would do anything to marry into the Zhou family, even if it was a collateral branch of the Zhou family.
Besides, it was the host family.
"Mrs. Zhou, please have a seat."
Jiang Yue sat on the sofa, picked up the teacup in front of her, and slowly took a sip. She got straight to the point: "I hope you can fight for the greatest benefit for me."
The person in charge looked at the beautiful socialite and couldn't help but be drawn to her exquisite face. He paused for a moment, struggling to look away from her face, and then said, "If you are sure you want a divorce, we will certainly fight for the best interests of our client."
"But if I may be so bold, I don't know if you and Mr. Zhou signed any prenuptial agreement regarding property."
Jiang Yue thought of the few pages of papers locked in the safe. She put down her teacup, lifted her eyelids slightly, and remained remarkably calm.
The person in charge was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw how calm and composed she was, when he heard her say, "It's signed."
She didn't seem to care and asked, "What's wrong?"
The person in charge took a deep breath. "Then there's only so much we can negotiate. I wonder what amount would be satisfactory for you? We'll also discuss it with their lawyer later."
Before a divorce lawsuit, there is at least a negotiation process.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment: "At least half of Zhou Ji's assets are required, preferably 80% for me and 20% for him."
The person in charge happened to be drinking tea. Upon hearing this, he coughed violently. He had never been so embarrassed. He frantically wiped the tea that had splashed on his suit with a tissue, seemingly doubting what he had just heard: "Do you want eight or two?"
Jiang Yue cleared her throat and said without hesitation, "Didn't I say I'm eight and he's two?"
Is this hard to understand?
She was already very kind by not making Zhou Ji leave with nothing.
After all, in the Jiang Kingdom, if a couple divorces, all the property belongs to the wife.
The wife has sacrificed so much for the family, so naturally she deserves more in return.
Jiang Yue felt that she had already given a lot to Zhou Ji: a tainted marriage, the inexplicable humiliation she suffered because of him, and of course, herself.
Being able to marry her was already incredibly lucky for Zhou Ji.
No matter how she thought about it, Jiang Yue felt that she had sacrificed a great deal.
The person in charge closed his eyes, composed himself, and then told her the truth: "Mrs. Zhou, this is very difficult."
Jiang Yue hummed in agreement: "That's why I came to find you."
She stood up, put her mask back on, leaving only her dark, watery eyes visible, and said, "First, draft a divorce agreement according to my requirements, and then I will send it to Zhou Ji to see."
He was smart enough to sign the divorce papers obediently.
If they don't know what's good for them, then we'll sue them.
No matter how much, at least I fought for myself.
Jiang Yue arrived at the law firm with a swagger, and left with an equally haughty air.
If it weren't for professional ethics, the head of the law firm would have wanted to share this bizarre client request in the work group!
Why would someone have such a wildly imaginative idea?
They actually dared to try and swallow up most of the Zhou family's assets; their greed is insatiable.
Dressed like this, no one else in the law firm recognized Jiang Yue. However, when the elevator doors opened, the man who stepped out suddenly stopped. He stared at her exposed eyes, his tone uncertain: "Jiang Yue?"
Jiang Yue heard her name called and lazily looked over.
Gu Chen saw through her haughty demeanor, which made her even more certain that the person in front of her, who was completely covered up, was her.
"How did you get here?"
Jiang Yue didn't recognize him at first, but after a while she remembered that she seemed to have seen him last night.
The man was also quite handsome, dressed in a suit and tie, looking like a very upright gentleman, and seemed very polite and welcoming.
Jiang Yue is best at judging people.
The condescending look in this man's eyes last night made her very uncomfortable.
Therefore, her attitude wasn't much better at the moment, and she said irritably, "Let's go shopping."
Gu Chen smiled, seemingly unperturbed by her indifference.
He wanted to say something else.
Jiang Yue entered the elevator without looking back. If Gu Chen wasn't mistaken, the moment the elevator doors closed, Jiang Yue seemed to roll her eyes slightly.
And he actually found it rather despicable that she was kind of cute in her impatience.
As soon as Jiang Yue left the law firm, Zhou Ji, who had already arrived home, asked her where she was and when she was coming home. He added, "Didn't you say you didn't have any filming work?"
Jiang Yue pretended not to have seen his message.
He already knows where she goes every day, so why bother asking her in a pretentious and unnecessary way?
Don't her driver and bodyguards tell her every detail of her schedule every day?
When Jiang Yue arrived home, Zhou Ji was in the living room, seemingly waiting for her on purpose.
The man said in a nonchalant tone, "Auntie has prepared your favorite dishes."
As soon as Jiang Yue entered the house, she smelled the aroma of the food. She was in a good mood and looked radiant, especially with the bright and mischievous light in her eyes.
Zhou Ji looked at the smile that had sneaked out of her eyes and felt a tickle in his heart. After a couple of seconds of silence, he asked her, "Mrs. Zhou, you were so happy after going to the law firm this afternoon?"
Jiang Yue looked at him and said, "I asked him about some questions that had been bothering me for a long time, and I'm quite happy about it."
When Her Highness is in a good mood, she unconsciously adds a touch of coquettishness to the end of her sentences.
Although Zhou Ji knew where she went, he didn't know exactly what she did at the law firm.
certainly.
At that moment, Mr. Zhou had no idea that his wife had gone to a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement.
