Jiang Xinyue led Bo Xuan in, taking in the chaos and argument between the two.
Her gaze shifted from Bo Jingcheng's unnatural expression to Chen Siyao's slightly flushed cheeks and stubborn eyes, and she understood a few things in her heart.
No wonder her son was so nervous when he saw her come back.
So, Shen Siyao was here, and in her dressing room, her clothes disheveled.
Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and turned to Bo Xuan, saying, "Xuanxuan, you go downstairs to play first. Your father and I have something to discuss."
Upon hearing this, Bo Xuan hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Bo Jingcheng and Shen Siyao.
Bo Jingcheng gave him a wink, and Bo Xuan reluctantly agreed, "Alright then!"
So, Bo Xuan obediently left.
Then, Jiang Xinyue looked at Bo Jingcheng, her voice as cold as ice: "Bo Jingcheng, how come she's in my fitting room?"
Faced with Jiang Xinyue's questioning, Bo Jingcheng opened his mouth, but didn't know where to begin. He avoided Jiang Xinyue's gaze, his eyes darting around.
Seeing this, Shen Siyao pretended to be weak and said first, "Xinyue, don't misunderstand, I just came to try on the dress."
Jiang Xinyue sneered: "Trying on a dress? Are you sure you're not trying to seduce my husband with your disheveled appearance right now??"
Shen Siyao's face paled, and she bit her lip: "Xinyue, I didn't. The zipper of this dress was stuck, and Jingcheng was just being kind by helping me unzip it."
Bo Jingcheng quickly chimed in, his expression slightly displeased, "Xinyue, Siyao is right. I was just helping him with his zipper. Why are you making such a fuss?"
Jiang Xinyue laughed angrily: "Pull up a zipper? Bo Jingcheng, do you think I'm a three-year-old? Do you two really think I'm blind and can't see through it?"
Bo Jingcheng frowned: "Jiang Xinyue, don't be unreasonable. Things aren't as you think at all."
Jiang Xinyue looked at him coldly: "Not what I think? Then what is it? Bo Jingcheng, your heart has long since left this family. Let's get a divorce!"
Hearing Jiang Xinyue mention divorce again, Shen Siyao was secretly delighted, but pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Xinyue, you really misunderstood. Jingcheng and I have nothing going on."
Jiang Xinyue turned her head and glared fiercely at Shen Siyao: "Nothing? Shen Siyao, do you think I'd believe that? Ever since you came back, I've known your purpose. Aren't you just trying to seduce my husband so you can secure your position as Mrs. Bo?"
"Slap—" Just then, Bo Jingcheng raised his hand and slapped Jiang Xinyue across the face, his expression filled with anger.
This was the first time Bo Jingcheng had hit her in their five years of marriage.
Jiang Xinyue covered her burning cheeks, a bitter smile playing on her lips.
Five years of my youth were ultimately wasted.
At that moment, her heart finally died.
A mechanical system notification sounded in my ear.
[Warning! Host, the male lead's current affection level towards you has dropped to 20%.]
Jiang Xinyue showed no emotion, only staring at Bo Jingcheng with red eyes.
The more Bo Jingcheng dislikes her now, the more he'll agree to divorce her. She just has to act unreasonably in front of him to make him feel that she still loves him and that's why she cares so much about him being with other women.
"Bo Jingcheng, you actually hit me for her sake?" Jiang Xinyue's eyes were filled with tears, her face full of grievance and anger.
Seeing this scene, Bo Jingcheng felt inexplicably guilty, but when he thought about Jiang Xinyue's recent actions, he became irritable.
"Jiang Xinyue, haven't you caused enough trouble? Apologize to Siyao!"
Jiang Xinyue sneered: "Apologize? Bo Jingcheng, I did nothing wrong. You were the one who cheated on me first, and you actually want me to apologize to a mistress?"
Upon seeing Jiang Xinyue call Shen Siyao a "homewrecker," Bo Jingcheng angrily shouted, "Jiang Xinyue, don't be ungrateful!"
Chen Siyao said hypocritically, "Jingcheng, don't be like this. Xinyue acted on impulse."
Jiang Xinyue looked at Chen Siyao and said sarcastically, "Shut up! You have no right to speak here."
Bo Jingcheng pointed to the door and said, "Jiang Xinyue, get out of here!"
Jiang Xinyue sneered and said firmly, "You don't need to tell me. I will leave. As long as you sign the divorce agreement and the son stays with me, I will leave naturally."
Bo Jingcheng snorted coldly: "You can't have our son, and I won't sign the divorce papers."
Jiang Xinyue stared at him wide-eyed in disbelief: "Bo Jingcheng, what exactly do you want?"
Bo Jingcheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Jiang Xinyue, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You just want a share of the inheritance, don't you?"
Jiang Xinyue's heart turned completely cold. She said, "Bo Jingcheng, in your heart, is this the kind of person I am?"
At this moment, Shen Siyao tugged at Bo Jingcheng's sleeve and said softly, "Jingcheng, why don't you have a proper talk with Xinyue?"
Bo Jingcheng shook off her hand: "What's there to talk about? She's being so unreasonable, there's no way to talk to her."
Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath. "Fine! Bo Jingcheng, since you don't agree to a divorce and are willing to give me custody of our son, then we'll have to see you in court."
After saying that, Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath and turned to leave.
Jiang Xinyue turned and left, her steps resolute, her high heels making crisp, rapid sounds on the floor, each sound seeming to pound on Bo Jingcheng's heart.
As Shen Siyao watched Jiang Xinyue's retreating figure, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes. But when she looked at Bo Jingcheng, she found that his brows were furrowed and his face was full of annoyance and irritation.
"Jingcheng, Xinyue is just trying to get your attention by making a fuss about divorce. Don't fall for it. Also, you can't give up custody of Xuanxuan to her," Shen Siyao said softly, reaching out to take Bo Jingcheng's arm.
"Don't worry! I will absolutely not give her custody of our son." Bo Jingcheng clenched his fist and said fiercely.
When she got downstairs, Jiang Xinyue saw her son sitting on the sofa and couldn't help but walk over and ask, "Xuanxuan, if... Mommy's just saying if, your dad and I separated, who would you want to live with?"
Bo Xuan continued playing with his toys, saying without hesitation, "Of course it's Dad."
Hearing Bo Xuan's unwavering answer, Jiang Xinyue felt as if her heart had been stabbed again. Fighting back tears, she asked in a trembling voice, "Why, Xuanxuan? Don't you like Mommy anymore?"
Bo Xuan stopped what he was doing, looked up, and said innocently, "No, Mom, but Dad said that if you and he break up, he will buy me lots and lots of toys and take me to lots and lots of fun places."
Jiang Xinyue then realized that Bo Jingcheng had already put in a lot of effort to win custody of their son. A bitter feeling welled up in her heart, and she gently touched Bo Xuan's head, saying, "Xuanxuan, Mommy loves you very much too, and Mommy will always be with you."
Bo Xuan frowned slightly: "But Mom, you're always so busy and never have time to play with me. Dad even said you don't like me anymore. Besides, I like Aunt Siyao, and I want her to be my mom too."
