Only Chen Jing knew how much courage she needed to say this, how long she had worked on it, and how many times she had thought about the past and how many tears she had shed that night.

So at this moment, her heart was extremely firm. She was Chen Jing, the Chen Jing who would never compromise and would not tolerate even a grain of sand in her eyes, the Chen Jing who was unswerving in her feelings but would never force herself to compromise.

The love she wants can only be unique. She can accept love without material conditions, and can accept love that is not so romantic and formalistic, but she will never accept love that has been tainted.

Lu Ziyang didn't expect Chen Jing to suddenly mention divorce. He thought Chen Jing might be crazy. Why did she say divorce so casually, even if she was angry.

At this moment, he just felt that Chen Jing's unreasonable behavior was a bit annoying.

"Can you talk about divorce so casually? Have I spoiled you so much that you don't know your place anymore?"

The cold words made Chen Jing stiffen. Spoiled? Haha, so those things I thought were favors were already great favors in your eyes?

She felt cold all over. Lu Ziyang stared at the resolute figure in front of him. A feeling of irritation flashed through his heart. He didn't know whether it was because of her ignorance or because the divorce she said was too uncomfortable. Lu Ziyang got up, picked up a pair of pants and put them on. He walked past Chen Jing, but heard

"I'm already very tired from working outside. Don't let me hear you say something like that again. Divorce? You're dreaming. It's impossible in this life."

Then he walked out of the bedroom and slammed the door. After Lu Ziyang left, Chen Jing slumped on the ground. Her hands hung weakly on the ground and she slowly closed her eyes that were already filled with tears. Why, why can't you let me go? You obviously have a new love, but why do you insist on keeping me by your side? She couldn't understand why people are so greedy.

When the door closed, Chen Jing knew that Lu Ziyang had gone to work. She got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower and get herself ready. Why didn't she have to go to work?

She was once renowned in the industry as the most beautiful foreign trade director, known for her iron fist and high emotional intelligence. Every client she approached was a success, all for that man. He said he wanted to see her every day when he came home. He said his wife didn't need to be in the spotlight, that he was too outstanding and felt threatened. In her youth, driven by love, she quit her thriving career to devote herself wholeheartedly to being Mrs. Lu. At the time, she felt this was the life she wanted most. As for Lu Ziyang, he didn't come home so late every day. When they first got married, he truly loved her. Knowing Chen Jing preferred a quiet life together, he fired the nanny. Knowing Chen Jing feared a spacious house, he bought a small, over 100-square-meter apartment in the city center as their wedding home. Although he was used to living in a villa and having a nanny to serve him, he decided to adapt to the simple life of a married couple for Chen Jing. He knew Chen Jing had quit her glamorous job for him, and he worried she'd think he just wanted her to cook and wash at home. A man who had never set foot in the kitchen, he learned to cook for Chen Jing.

At that time, he said, "I just want Mrs. Lu to be happy every day, not to marry a wife to be a nanny. I love my woman very much."

Chen Jing was happy for a long time because of this. She felt that she must have done good things in her previous life, so she could meet Lu Ziyang in this life. However, this happiness only lasted for more than a year. Gradually, Lu Ziyang came back very late. He went from coming home every day to cooking for her for half a year, and later they never met again.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Chen Jing felt a little blurry. She barely recognized the person before her. The woman in the mirror had bloodshot eyes and a tired expression. She was only twenty-eight, but she looked forty. Her eyes were dull, her hair was messy. She hated herself so much. She was beautiful, but she had lost her soul. At that moment, a seed of determination sprouted.
