"Since Mr. Leng is unwilling to be touched by me, then let's get a divorce!" Yan Zhi looked at the handsome and unapproachable man in the president's chair and smiled calmly.
This is the second time Yan Zhi has filed for divorce.
The last time was on their wedding night, the night Leng Linli brought his beloved Bai Lian to their bridal chamber.
Upon hearing this, Leng Linli leaned back slightly in his CEO chair, his expression unreadable, but with a cool and languid air about him.
His gaze was fixed on Yan Zhi's face, his eyes scrutinizing her.
Yan Zhi could see the suspicion in Leng Linli's gaze, so she simply raised her head slightly, letting him look at her openly, and taking the opportunity to glance at him a few times.
Putting everything else aside, this face is truly pleasing to the eye.
However, every time I see it, it's one less time I'll get to see it.
After the divorce, they probably won't see each other much.
Their eyes met.
The room was silent.
After a long pause, Leng Linli's eyes flickered slightly, his thin lips curled up, and he sneered with disdain in his eyes:
"When you were deliberately rubbing against me just now, why didn't you mention divorce? Now that I've called you out, you're acting all high and mighty, playing hard to get with me?"
Is Leng Linli going to remain chaste for Bai Lian from today onwards? Or is Leng Linli now gilded and silvered? Is she untouchable?
Yan Zhi has rarely been unprofessional since becoming a secretary. It's just that her high heels didn't fit well today, and she couldn't walk steadily. With the relationship between her and Leng Linli at a standstill, she unprofessionally... stumbled a little when she got to Leng Linli.
If she could, Yan Zhi would rather have nothing to do with Leng Linli than anyone else. So when she was about to bump into Leng Linli, Yan Zhi tried her best to avoid Leng Linli's body. But no matter how she tried to avoid him, her face still accidentally brushed against Leng Linli's chest.
It was she who gave Leng Linli the opportunity to humiliate her.
Of course, Leng Linli didn't miss any opportunity to humiliate her.
He hates her, so he magnifies even the smallest mistake.
Yan Zhi saw it all clearly. Just now, the instant she left Leng Linli's chest, she saw the intense disgust in his eyes and his contemptuous disdain: "So you've already shown your true colors and stopped pretending? You think throwing yourself into my arms to seduce me will achieve your goal faster?"
Let her pretend.
Her forbearance only resulted in Leng Linli becoming even more ruthless.
Yan Zhiqing smiled faintly, calmly taking out a divorce agreement she had prepared long ago from her suit bag, smoothing out the wrinkles, and thoughtfully handing it to Leng Linli along with a pen:
"Whether it's a ploy to lure me in or not, we'll know once Mr. Leng signs the document. To prevent me from achieving my goal, Mr. Leng, you absolutely must sign it."
She even carries a divorce agreement with her? She's already planned her escape route if things get out of hand. Leng Linli glanced at Yan Zhi, his gaze even more disdainful.
He glanced casually at the crumpled copies of the divorce agreement; it was probably the most concise and clear agreement he had ever seen, only half a page long.
Leng Lin raised a sharp eyebrow: "That's it?"
She didn't want anything.
She left with nothing, just to divorce him?
Is this the same person who used every trick in the book to force him to marry his grandmother?
Would she be willing to divorce him before she even gets the money?
Cold and stern, I don't believe it.
Yan Zhi smiled, unable to describe her feelings, and nodded gently, "Well... let's leave it at that."
Sometimes, when you make the wrong choice, cutting your losses in time is the best way to correct the mistake.
The same three words, spoken by two different people, but not about the same thing.
One of them refers to material things.
One of them was saying that this marriage was coming to an end.
Leng Linli raised an eyebrow slightly, and tentatively curled the corners of his lips: "Are you sure you don't want to order anything else?"
Yan Zhiwei paused for a moment, understanding the implication in Leng Linli's words, and the curve of her lips widened: "It's certain... As for the rest, let's not go for them. After all, President Leng has already given me the greatest gift. If President Leng gives me another one, I'll panic."
Leng Linli thought for a moment but couldn't recall giving Yan Zhi any big gifts. Just as he was about to ask her, Yan Zhi softly said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank President Leng for giving me a grand but empty joy."
Her voice was soft and gentle, devoid of any emotion.
This was the second time Yan Zhi had thanked him.
He found it sarcastic and unsettling.
Leng Linli frowned slightly: "Are you blaming me for not giving you enough?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhi smiled almost imperceptibly.
I guess... I'm laughing at myself.
After all, when people feel speechless, they can only laugh it off.
She lowered her head slightly, composed herself, and also concealed the self-deprecating smile on her lips. When she looked up again, Yan Zhi's eyes were clear and bright.
Yan Zhi's eyes held a lazy smile: "I'm after you as a person, but you think I'm after your money. President Leng, it seems you're not very confident in yourself."
"snort."
Leng Linli scoffed, having already seen through Yan Zhi's true nature: "Shouldn't you add 'President Leng' to this statement? If I weren't President Leng, how sincere would your words be? Put away your feigned arrogance and tell me, how much do you want?"
Yan Zhi's eyelashes fluttered, and she still smiled faintly, her eyes full of nonchalance: "Of course, I should be happy that President Leng is willing to give it to me."
Yan Zhi's lips curled slightly, her tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible mockery: "President Leng is wealthy and generous. If President Leng feels too uneasy and insists on giving me some of his family's assets as compensation, I can accept it... Does what I'm saying please President Leng?"
How dare you say you're not after money!
He tried it briefly, and her fox tail was revealed.
His cold, sharp eyes turned icy; he hadn't misjudged her after all.
Almost there!
He almost thought she wasn't that kind of person.
But she is!
Ultimately, she was only after the Leng family's fortune!
Leng Linli clenched his fists tightly.
Why did you leave so decisively? What did you take him for?
He was used to being aloof and superior. In the company, no one dared to disobey his decisions. Outside, he was always the center of attention, with a group of people following him around. Who would dare to treat him so casually!
Except for her.
They challenged his bottom line time and time again!
His previously calm expression... gradually spiraled out of control. Leng Linli's face darkened, his voice icy: "Get married if you want, get divorced if you want. What do you take me for, Leng Linli? Even if we're getting a divorce, I'll have to go first..."
"Okay, you go first, go ahead and say it now." Yan Zhi smiled calmly, cutting off Leng Linli's mostly self-righteous words.
As long as there's a divorce, anything goes. Whether she brings it up first or later won't affect her much. A marriage certificate is just a legal document; true love for each other is what matters.
Yan Zhi knew that Leng Linli was unwilling to marry her, and now that he saw her voluntarily agreeing to divorce, he must be overjoyed.
