After Bo Jingcheng woke up, Shen Siyao did not tell him about the divorce agreement.
As it turns out, Bo Jingcheng overestimated himself.
For several days in a row, Jiang Xinyue did not return, nor did she make a single phone call to the father and son.
Inside the apartment, Qin Ruolin looked at Jiang Xinyue, who was sitting in front of the computer, intently designing something.
"Are you just going to keep hiding like this? Let that mistress, Shen Siyao, take over your husband and children?"
Jiang Xinyue shook her head. "I didn't hide. I just wanted to be alone for a while."
Qin Ruolin frowned. "So, do you still want a divorce?"
"Of course I've thought about it. I left the divorce papers at home, but I don't know if he's seen them." Jiang Xinyue looked up for a moment, then continued to focus on her design.
Qin Ruolin sighed helplessly, "You're just too soft-hearted. Even now, you've only left the divorce papers at home without urging anything. Shen Siyao is now constantly focused on Bo Jingcheng and the child; who knows, she might really replace you one day."
Jiang Xinyue paused, a hint of melancholy flashing in her eyes. "So be it. I just want to live my life well now, do the designs I love, and pick up my old dreams little by little. As for Bo Jingcheng, if he wants to rekindle his old flame with Chen Siyao, I'll grant him his wish as long as he signs the divorce papers."
"But are you willing to accept this? After all, he's the man you've loved for five years and even had a child with. And Xuanxuan is still so young. Are you really willing to give him up?"
Qin Ruolin walked to Jiang Xinyue's side and gently patted her shoulder.
Jiang Xinyue gave a bitter smile. "What's there to be unwilling about? I gave my heart to these past five years, but what did I get in return? Now I just want to live for myself. Even if I regret it later, I want to follow my heart this time."
Qin Ruolin sighed, "I thought that after all these years, you had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel. I never expected that things would turn out this way. Life is truly unpredictable."
"But since you've already made your decision, I won't say anything more. I just hope you won't regret it later."
Qin Ruolin sighed softly, her eyes filled with worry and helplessness.
Jiang Xinyue slightly curved her lips, but there was a hint of bitterness in her smile. "Whether I regret it or not, at least I feel relaxed now. I don't have to revolve around others anymore. I can just focus on my own preferences. I haven't felt this way in a long time."
Qin Ruolin nodded. "If you insist on divorce, I will help you fight for custody of the children."
Hearing Qin Ruolin's words, Jiang Xinyue felt a warmth in her heart, and her eyes reddened slightly. "Ruolin, thank you."
Bo's Group.
Inside his office, Bo Jingcheng was working diligently. With his secretary Shen Siyao by his side these past few days, he had forgotten about Jiang Xinyue running away from home.
Until Bo Jingcheng received a call from the kindergarten teacher.
"What? Xuanxuan is out of school and no one's picking him up?"
Bo Jingcheng was immediately anxious and hurriedly put down his work. As he walked outside, he blamed himself, saying, "How could I have forgotten about this? I've been so busy with work these past few days."
Seeing this, Shen Siyao hurriedly followed, "Jingcheng, don't rush, I'll go with you to pick up Xuanxuan."
Bo Jingcheng nodded, and the two hurriedly entered the elevator and went to the basement garage.
When they rushed to the kindergarten, they saw Bo Xuan sitting alone in the gatehouse, his eyes red.
As soon as Bo Xuan saw them, he burst into tears. "Dad, why did you take so long to come? All the other kids have been picked up by their parents. I thought you didn't want me anymore."
Bo Jingcheng hugged his son tightly, feeling sorry for him. "I'm sorry, Xuanxuan. It's Daddy's fault. Daddy forgot the time. Don't cry."
Bo Xuan sobbed, "Dad, I miss Mommy. If Mommy were here, she would definitely not forget to come and pick me up."
Bo Jingcheng felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
Shen Siyao pretended to be distressed and wiped away Bo Xuan's tears, "Xuanxuan, don't cry. Xinyue is really something. Even if she's angry, she should have a limit. How could she be so heartless? She doesn't even care about her own son."
Upon hearing this, Bo Jingcheng was immediately enraged. He handed his son to Shen Siyao and then walked aside to make a phone call to Jiang Xinyue.
At this moment, Jiang Xinyue was holding her design drafts and talking with the owners of several clothing companies.
"Mr. Lu, could you please take a look? This is my design draft."
"Miss Jiang, isn't this a design by the famous designer Linda? How did it end up in your hands?"
The CEOs looked at each other, all staring at Jiang Xinyue with surprise.
Jiang Xinyue was also taken aback, and quickly explained, "President Lu, this is indeed my own design. As for Linda, actually I..."
Just as Jiang Xinyue was about to speak, the phone rang.
Jiang Xinyue saw that it was Bo Jingcheng calling, and just as she was hesitating whether to answer, she realized it was him.
The CEOs looked at her with a hint of suspicion. "Miss Jiang, we need to be careful about this. Linda is very famous in the design world. Her designs are original and unique. We can't afford to have any misunderstandings about plagiarism."
Jiang Xinyue opened her mouth, "President Lu, I..."
Her phone kept ringing, and one of the bosses said to her, "Ms. Jiang, why don't you answer the phone first?"
"Excuse me, I'll have to stay a moment." Jiang Xinyue stood up, nodded slightly to them, and looked apologetic.
"Jiang Xinyue, do you even have the demeanor of a mother? You didn't even remember to pick Xuanxuan up from school. How can you be so heartless as to abandon him?" Bo Jingcheng roared angrily as soon as he answered the phone.
Jiang Xinyue was already annoyed by Bo Jingcheng's disturbance, and now his unwarranted accusations only made her more upset.
"Bo Jingcheng, I'm very busy right now and don't have time to argue with you. As for Xuanxuan, you'll have to pick him up and drop him off at school yourself from now on."
“You… even if you’re having a disagreement with me, there should be limits. But Xuanxuan is innocent. He’s so young, and he keeps calling for his mother. How can you be so heartless?” Bo Jingcheng was still furious.
Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath, trying to suppress her anger. "Bo Jingcheng, the child isn't just mine. I used to pick Xuanxuan up from school by myself. You've picked him up and dropped him off very few times. You forgot to pick Xuanxuan up yourself, so why are you pushing all the responsibility onto me?"
Bo Jingcheng was speechless for a moment, but he was still holding back his anger. "No matter what, Xuanxuan misses you. Can't you come back and see him? He's crying and calling for his mother. Can you bear to do that?"
“How could I not be heartless? I’ve been revolving around you and your son for five years, but I can’t revolve around you forever. I have my own life and my own dreams. From now on, don’t call me about these kinds of trivial matters.”
As Jiang Xinyue spoke, her eyes reddened slightly. She missed her son, but she didn't want to fall back into that kind of life.
Bo Jingcheng wanted to say something more, but Jiang Xinyue interrupted him directly, "I'm really busy, I'll hang up now."
