Chapter 185 The Divorced Wife Turns on Herself vs. The Arrogant and Wealthy Husband (14)

The road was filled with cars, the windows were half open, and the wind kept blowing in.

Chu Feng and Chu Lincheng were sitting in the car, having just finished a business negotiation meeting.

"Your birthday is in a few days. Have you made all the preparations for the birthday party?" Chu Feng asked.

"More or less." Chu Lincheng lit a cigarette.

“You can come back a day early, have a meal at home, and then you won’t have to wait until the birthday banquet. It’s too busy and inconvenient.”

"Okay, sure."

Chu Feng flipped through the documents in his hand and said, "I heard that you recently hired a lawyer to invalidate the prenuptial agreement and transferred shares to her?"

"Yes." Chu Lincheng didn't intend to hide it.

Chu Feng frowned. He wanted to say something, but Chu Lincheng interrupted him directly.

"Brother, I know what I'm doing."

"...Whatever you want." Chu Feng paused, but ultimately said nothing more.

Actually, he didn't agree to Chu Lincheng and Jiang Zhiyi getting married in the first place. The two of them were very tumultuous when they were dating, and they broke up countless times, both big and small.

Marriage is not like dating; it's not about breaking up and getting back together, and things can end up very ugly.

However, Chu Lincheng seemed to have lost his mind; he not only wanted to get married, but he also wanted to get married immediately.

He suggested they get engaged first, but that didn't work either.

For the past two years since their marriage, things have been relatively peaceful for them. However, this recent sudden change suggests that they have likely had some kind of conflict.

Never mind, it's not convenient for him to get involved in these matters.

That evening, Chu Lincheng returned home.

"My sister-in-law just called and asked us to come back for dinner in a few days." Jiang Zhiyi sat in front of the vanity mirror applying skincare products; she had just come out of the shower. "What kind of birthday present do you want?"

“I’m fine with either,” he replied.

Jiang Zhiyi nodded. "Mm."

Then she'd just buy him something random, since he didn't need anything anyway.

He leaned in and hugged her, inhaling her scent; it smelled wonderful. "What are you putting on now?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you, so go away."

Chu Lincheng smiled and picked her up.

...

Soon it was time to go back to the Chu family for dinner.

Jiang Zhiyi got up early in the morning and gave him the gift she had prepared earlier. "Happy birthday."

Chu Lincheng opened it and looked inside. There was a tie, a shirt, and a watch.

These are the same things that are sent back and forth, and the parts that are wrong will always be wrong.

"Is today my birthday?" he asked.

"Yeah, aren't we supposed to go back for dinner today? How come you can't even remember your own birthday?" Jiang Zhiyi found his question a bit strange.

Chu Lincheng stood there without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" She noticed that his expression had suddenly turned very bad.

"It's nothing." He went over to help her get dressed.

Jiang Zhiyi opened WeChat on her phone and started clearing the red dots in her message list.

She saw that someone sent her a voice message last night, but she doesn't remember who it was, there was no nickname, and it wasn't in her chat history.

She tapped the voice message, and a young man's voice came through, "Sister, what time of day have you been lately..."

She immediately turned off the voice message.

She remembered; it seemed like she had added it when she went out with those friends before.

Chu Lincheng sneered, "He's urging you? Are you going over tonight?"

“No…he…” Jiang Zhiyi didn’t know how to explain it to him.

“I’m not dead yet,” he said.

Jiang Zhiyi was also a little unhappy when she heard this. She said, "Don't be so sarcastic. This is just an insignificant person."

"Then who is the important person?" Chu Lincheng asked.

"Is it me? Do you know when my birthday is? Do you know what size clothes I wear? In all this time, have you ever cared about me?"

"What do you take me for? A lapdog who has to wag its tail and beg for your mercy every day?"

Jiang Zhiyi frowned and remained silent.

"When have you ever not been so reckless? You know I'll never want to lose you, you know I'll always beg you to make up with me..."

She couldn't help but retort, "You were the one who wanted to come to me; I never forced you to do anything."

Chu Lincheng remained silent.

After a long while, he asked again, "Why did you marry me in the first place?"

If she really didn't like him, they didn't have to get married; it was she who agreed to his proposal.

Jiang Zhiyi: "...I don't know, there aren't that many whys."

He continued to help her get dressed, buttoning up her coat one button at a time.

"You really want a divorce now?" He asked calmly, as if asking about the weather.

Jiang Zhiyi looked up at him but did not answer.

"Then I'll do as you say. I'll have my lawyer come over later..."

He stood up, straightened his clothes, and then strode out.

Jiang Zhiyi just watched him leave.

She turned her head again, and on the table in front of her was the wedding ring he had just taken off, its diamonds reflecting a clear light.
