“Alan, when we got divorced, I promised you a settlement, but I kept making excuses not to give it to you.” Nangong Jue led Le Yao inside. “It’s not that I didn’t want to give it to you, nor that I deliberately used saving you as an excuse, but I felt that if I gave you the money, you might stay far away from me. To be honest, the moment I signed the divorce papers, I regretted it…”
Le Yao: ...
“But I know that my indifference in the past hurt you, so I am willing to pursue you again.” Nangong Jue looked at Le Yao very seriously, “Just like any other ordinary couple.”
Le Yao's heart raced and her face flushed as the other person stared at her.
“But now that I’ve resigned from the Nangong Group, I probably won’t have any of my assets anymore.” Nangong Jue suddenly sighed softly. “Fortunately, I bought this place a long time ago and renovated it into the Lan Garden it is today. At least I can guarantee that no matter what happens, you will be able to live a life free from financial worries.”
"What do you mean?" Le Yao frowned.
"It means this place is yours, all the land and properties are in your name." Nangong Jue smiled. "After more than half a year of streamlining, things have started to get on track this month and should begin to turn a profit..."
Le Yao was still completely confused, feeling like she couldn't understand what she was saying.
"Here is my breakup fee for you."
"This...is mine?" Le Yao almost popped her eyes out. Even without asking, she knew that this place was worth more than 200 million.
“We were husband and wife, and now that we’re divorced, the law stipulates that I should give you half of the property. But now I’m only giving you Lan Garden, so you’re still at a disadvantage.” Nangong Jue reached out and ruffled Le Yao’s hair. “I’ve arranged for someone to manage this place. They’re reliable and trustworthy, and you can completely trust them. From now on, you just need to check the accounts and collect the money regularly. That way, no matter what happens in the future, I can guarantee that you’ll have a worry-free life.”
Le Yao frowned slightly: "Nangong Jue, something sounds off about what you just said."
"What's strange about it?" Nangong Jue smiled. "I've never thought about having a second woman in my life. Even if you really reject me, I won't marry any other woman besides you."
Le Yao opened her mouth slightly, but ultimately said nothing, because she didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, at that moment, a middle-aged man quickly walked by: "My lord, my lady, hello, I am Liu Qingjiang, the person in charge here."
“Yes.” Nangong Jue nodded. “Alan, you can call him Uncle Liu. He’s someone you can completely trust.”
“Uncle Liu,” Yue Yao readily agreed.
"Good day, Madam."
Le Yao is too lazy to correct her now; let her be Madam then.
Next, Liu Qingjiang led them on a tour of the courtyard. The entire orchid garden not only cultivates various orchids, but also has supporting workshops that can produce tea essential oils and so on, making it very complete.
After getting a general understanding of the situation, Liu Qingjiang took the person to his office and showed Le Yao some of the documents and materials there. Some of the transfer documents also required her signature.
Looking at her name on those documents, Le Yao felt a little dazed. This Lan Garden covers nearly twenty acres. Although it is in the suburbs, it is the suburbs of the capital. The price is higher than the city center of some second- or third-tier cities. The market value of this land alone is about two billion, not counting the industries in Lan Garden.
