Marrying a Legal Titan for the Second Time, My Ex-Husband Dies Alone

Meng Sheng and Shang Bo Yu have been in love for three years and married for three years. They were inseparable, and he loved her dearly, treating her with warmth and gentleness.

Until one da...

Chapter 176 Mediation Court

Meng Sheng also thought of this.

In fact, she had no intention of calling the police, nor was she prepared to fight to the death with Shang Boyu.

After all, he still had evidence that she was the whistleblower of Yueqifang.

Some things that will hurt yourself and the enemy at the same time are not worth it if you do them.

She said, "But it's a lever that will help me get a divorce, right?"

Pei Sui looked at her and asked hesitantly, "Did you know in advance that he would drug you?"

Meng Sheng said calmly, "Guess. Shang Yizheng came to me yesterday afternoon, trying to delay the divorce. So, I knew Shang Boyu would come to me."

guess?

The doubt that had been buried deep in Pei Sui's heart suddenly surfaced again.

There is a mysterious aura about her that is hard to grasp.

But what is the truth behind the fog?

"Why do you think he came here to give me drugs?"

Meng Sheng looked at him, then his eyes fell on the disposable cup.

She whispered, "This isn't the first time he drugged me. I suspected drugs were put into my breakfast pancake a few days ago, so I had it sent for testing. The results should be out in the next two days."

Pei Sui's face was grim and his expression was gloomy.

The kitchen was silent for a while. She slowly raised her head and asked as if to confirm, "He will apply for out-of-court mediation, right?"

It seemed that only when she heard the answer she wanted from him could her heart be completely at peace.

She wanted to escape from this horrible marriage.

I will risk my life to completely break up with Shang Boyu.

Pei Sui knew her intention, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was slow, "He will. However, since he can do such a thing as drugging you,

His psychology may have...changed greatly, so you should pay more attention to it."

He said this in a very tactful way.

The fact that he could come up with such a sinister trick is enough to show how twisted Shang Boyu's heart is.

With a person like this, it is hard to say what shocking, unexpected, and horrifying thing he will do next.

Meng Sheng frowned, nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."

She tidied up the kitchen briefly and went to the door to watch the video on the wall. She saw Shang Boyu still standing there dejectedly, as if he had lost his soul and was unwilling to leave.

She took a deep breath, suppressed the irritation and disgust rising in her heart, and didn't bother to pay attention to it.

When I returned to the living room, I saw Pei Sui had just finished a phone call.

I looked at the time again. It was already half past eleven. It would be time for dinner in half an hour.

If Shang Boyu doesn't leave, he can't leave either.

Thinking of this, she asked, "Shang Boyu hasn't left yet. If you don't mind, you can stay here for a while at noon?"

Pei Sui looked up at her, his eyes still clear. After a few seconds, he responded without any fluctuations in his tone, "Okay."

The ingredients in the refrigerator were all bought when I came back yesterday afternoon, and they are quite complete.

Meng Sheng prepared a few menus in his mind and started preparing.

Not long after, Pei Sui also came in to help.

She moved her lips and watched him roll up his black shirt, revealing a thin and strong forearm with clear and smooth muscle lines.

He said, "No, just sit out for a while, I'll be there soon..."

"It's okay." Pei Sui interrupted her calmly, "It's okay to sit outside."

As he said this, he did not stop his hands movements and looked very skilled.

Meng Sheng asked, "Do you often cook at home?"

Pei Sui replied succinctly with two words, "Occasionally."

He only talks more when it comes to cases; at other times, he won't chat with anyone.

Meng Sheng didn't ask any more questions.

The two of them spent half an hour in silence preparing four dishes and a soup.

To be precise, Meng Sheng was just helping out. When preparing to cook, Pei Sui naturally took over the spatula.

But the fact is, his cooking is indeed better than hers.

After watching her taste every dish, he asked, "How is it?"

Meng Sheng looked up at him.

Inexplicably, it reminded her of the last time she cooked for him and was looking forward to his comments. She couldn't help but slightly curved her eyebrows.

“Mm, delicious.”

Pei Sui nodded and said nothing more.

After the two of them finished their meal, Shang Boyu left the door without knowing when. He was not in a hurry, and patiently accompanied Meng Sheng in the living room to drink tea for half an hour before finally getting up and leaving.

Meng Sheng sent him to the door and only returned to the house after seeing the elevator door close.

The whole house looked tidy and clean, but she felt uncomfortable for some reason, so she called the housekeeping department.

The divorce petition was submitted to the court in the afternoon, and two days later, the court received a notice of filing the case.

Three days later, a copy of the divorce petition was mailed to Shang Boyu by the court.

He tried to contact Meng Sheng, but Meng Sheng had blacklisted his mobile phone number and WeChat.

When Meng Sheng said that day that he never wanted to see Shang Boyu again, it was obviously just an angry remark, because it was impossible not to see him.

On the ninth day after the case was filed, with only a little over a week left until the Chinese New Year, the court arranged a pre-trial mediation notice.

Pei Sui said this was a necessary procedure in the court.

If we can reach an agreement during this mediation, we can avoid the trouble of a second mediation and court trial later.

It also greatly reduces a lot of time.

The weather was still very good on the day of court mediation, with bright sunshine, warm weather and a gentle breeze.

Before entering the court, Pei Sui tilted his head and asked her, "Are you nervous?"

Meng Sheng paused when he heard this, and looked into his deep and slightly indifferent eyes.

She chuckled and shook her head, "No."

After a two-second pause, she asked again, "If the mediation is successful, do we still need to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register for divorce?"

"No. Once you sign the court's mediation agreement, it will take effect immediately."

Pei Sui explained the confusion to her, and under the warm sunshine and breeze, the clear and indifferent tone in his words was blown away a little.

"There are generally two situations: one is in-court mediation; the other is non-court mediation. If an agreement is reached through mediation, the court will prepare and issue a mediation agreement on the same day, which will take effect after both parties sign on the spot.

The second type is similar, but it takes three to five days to be produced and delivered to the residences of both parties, and the agreement takes effect after 15 natural days.

Don't worry, the agreement has been reached this time, and there is a high probability that the mediation agreement can be signed today."

The light in Meng Sheng's eyes slowly began to flow, and he replied softly, "Okay."

Pei Sui said, "Let's go, we should go in."

When they arrived, Shang Boyu and his attorney had already arrived.

Shang Boyu heard footsteps and looked up. A pair of matching figures were deeply reflected in his restrained and gentle peach blossom eyes through the lenses.

One is dressed in a suit and has a refined and elegant temperament; the other is simple and intellectual, with an elegant temperament like orchid.

The two people standing side by side are as natural as the alternation of day and night, or more like a carefully composed famous painting.

Shang Boyu's heart sank.

A lot of inexplicable and surging emotions suddenly surged in my heart, and I wanted to separate them directly.

Then he hugged Meng Sheng tightly in his arms, embedding him in his bones and blood.

He wanted to tell the world that Meng Sheng was his, and belonged to him alone.
