Gu Qian had indeed done nothing to wrong her. The accident involving him and her uncle was not his intention. As he said, he was the victim, and she shouldn't despise him. However, she truly couldn't continue the marriage.
Now, whenever she sees Gu Qian, the image of him and her uncle in bed immediately flashes into her mind—it's so disgusting, she can't help but feel nauseous.
"But I can't get over this, I can't face you..."
Gu Qian interrupted her with a furious rage: "Xia Wan, if you had suffered this, I would never have abandoned you. You know perfectly well that this is not my fault, yet you still look at me like that. What right do you have?"
He seemed to know that it was difficult to save the marriage, and Gu Qian lost his temper and started saying things he didn't mean.
"You went to see Zhuang Yan this morning, didn't you? You can't let him go, can you? You wanted to take him to see Lu Yan, didn't you? Do you think Zhuang Yan is like you, who would abandon Lu Yan just because he finds her disgusting?"
Gu Qian exposed the darkest and ugliest side of Xia Wan's heart. No one understands Xia Wan better than him. Xia Wan is more hypocritical than anyone else but refuses to admit it. In fact, she has wanted to divorce him for a long time.
This unexpected event gave her a way out, providing her with a suitable reason to file for divorce.
Thinking of this, Gu Qian couldn't help but reveal a mocking expression.
Xia Wan's face stiffened, and she blurted out, "Gu Qian, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"You know best whether I'm lying or not. Otherwise, explain why you didn't tell us when you saw Zhuang Yan yesterday? Isn't it because you were having second thoughts? You couldn't let go of me when you were with Zhuang Yan, and you couldn't forget Zhuang Yan when you were with me. You wanted everything! Xia Wan, don't you think you're selfish and greedy? I could have lived a smooth life, but now, you've ruined it!"
Gu Qian screamed hoarsely, his eyes filled with hatred. If he had known it would turn out like this, he would never have married Xia Wan. He was being cuckolded for no reason. A selfish woman like Xia Wan didn't deserve to be cherished at all.
Why does Xia Wan disgust him? She's the most disgusting person, someone with such a dirty and despicable heart. "No wonder Zhuang Yan broke off the engagement and fell for your aunt."
Saying what's on your mind directly is incredibly powerful; it's like striking her soul from afar.
Gu Qian threatened, "If you divorce me, I'll commit suicide and jump off this building. Luckily, the reporters downstairs haven't left yet, so let them see how you drove a victim to suicide!"
Lu Yu immediately looked at Gu Qian nervously, fearing that he might jump out of the window later.
It was quite surprising that Gu Qian could say such a thing. It might fool Xia Wan, but it wouldn't be enough to impress Xia Qingshan.
Xia Qingshan patted Xia Wan's hand, both to comfort and to remind her. His eyes were sharp and his tone was full of sarcasm: "Then jump! Open the window now and jump. We won't stop you. If you think the building isn't high enough and you're not satisfied with the jump, you can jump from the 30th floor, no problem."
Gu Qian is timid and cowardly by nature, so he doesn't believe he would really dare to jump. He doesn't believe that saying he would jump is a threat, but rather a way to make Xia Wan feel guilty and thus submit to him.
The acts of crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide are not gender-specific; the difference lies in the fact that men are more adept at exploiting women's soft hearts.
Since Xia Wan couldn't bring herself to do it, he was the only one who could do it. He didn't believe Gu Qian would really jump off the building.
"So what if you jumped off the building? You jumped on your own, we didn't force you. If you die, it'll just be a pile of ashes, which will save us some trouble. I'll tell everyone that you committed suicide because you couldn't stand the debt. As for what happened between you and Uncle Xia Wan, it was an accident. Nobody has any evidence. Once you're dead, the truth will be fabricated by the living. I can tell everyone that you seduced someone, after all, this room is Uncle Xia Wan's private rest room."
If we're talking about ruthlessness, Xia Qingshan is ruthless enough. Anything that can be solved with money isn't a problem.
Xia Qingshan looked at Gu Qian as if he were looking at a rotting corpse. He mocked Gu Qian's overestimation of his abilities and wished he could push him off the building and kill him.
Gu Qian was frightened by his gaze, his whole body turned ice cold, and even clenching his fists tightly couldn't stop the chill in his palms.
Xia Qingshan sneered, saying that Gu Qian was far less witty and cunning than Zhuang Yan, and less ruthless and cruel. He was just a spineless coward who dared to mess with him. He was really tired of living.
Xia Qingshan stood up, took a step, and pointed it at Gu Qian as if he were holding a knife. He ordered his men to open the window and pushed Gu Qian to the window and out.
Gu Qian screamed in fright, no longer as self-righteous as before. His expression changed, and his eyes were filled with fear.
"Brother-in-law..."
"dad……"
Xia Wan and Lu Yu spoke up at the same time, both afraid that Xia Qingshan would really attack Gu Qian. If Gu Qian died here today, it would be quite a big problem.
"Jump! Go ahead and let go and jump! Do you still dare to die now?" Xia Qingshan patted his head and threatened him.
"I won't dare, I won't dare again." Gu Qian closed his eyes in fright. His upper body was almost pushed off the sixth floor. He would be crippled if he didn't die.
Xia Qingshan: "Let him go."
The bodyguard loosened his grip, and Gu Qian immediately collapsed to the ground. Xia Qingshan stood in front of him: "The divorce agreement is signed. I'll give you 50 million. After we get the marriage certificate in a month, I can arrange for someone to send you to a safe place. Those people chasing you for debts won't be able to find you. You can live out the rest of your life in peace."
This isn't just 50 million; an ordinary person could earn enough from the interest alone. Gu Qian is unemployed and incapable, yet Xia Qingshan still gave him this sum of money, all because of Xia Wan.
But for Gu Qian, fifty million was too little. Compared to the enormous Xia family, it was nothing. He could have had everything, but now he had only been given a small piece of the pie. How could he be willing to accept that?
Gu Qian then turned his gaze to Xia Wan: "Wanwan..."
He's quite flexible; he was just cursing Xia Wan for being selfish and greedy, but now he's begging her like a dog.
Xia Qingshan remained silent, simply waiting for Xia Wan's reply.
If Xia Wan continues to entangle with Gu Qian, he will immediately issue a notice on the official website to sever his father-daughter relationship with Xia Wan and will not leave her any property.
Xia Wan's mind was tense, like a puppet being pulled along by strings.
"Gu Qian, let's part amicably. Let's pretend we were never married. You can take this 50 million and find someone who truly loves you. I'm the one who has wronged you in this life."
Gu Qian's voice became extremely hoarse: "It is indeed you who are sorry, Xia Wan. I'll say it again, someone like you will never get true love in your life. If I hadn't been with you, I wouldn't have become like this. You ruined my life, you owe me."
People need to know how to make choices. Since he can't keep her, he should let Xia Wan retain her guilt so that he can take her back from her later.
