217: Got a divorce certificate
Xu Yao rarely shows weakness. She has a gentle appearance but a strong character. She did not collapse when the Xu family went bankrupt, and she quickly cheered up when her father Xu Qinghua was declared dead. She still maintained her self-respect after breaking off the engagement with Shen Yan... But towards Gu Jun, Xu Yao showed weakness!
She had no choice.
She knew clearly what kind of power the capital represented by Gu Jun meant. If Gu Jun did not agree to divorce, it would really drag Xu Yao on for a very long time.
For Xu Yao, time is money. If she doesn't work hard to make money while she is still popular, she will never be able to pay off the foreign debt of more than 300 million in her lifetime!
Xu Yao is showing weakness in exchange for the most precious time.
Obviously, she knew what Gu Jun was thinking.
Xu Yao's words hit Gu Jun right in the heart.
——To love someone is to fulfill her, not to possess her regardless of her wishes.
This marriage is full of lies. If Gu Jun wants to say that the love hidden under the lies is real, then he should not drag on and not get a divorce.
Gu Jun felt a sharp pain in his heart as if it was pierced by a sharp weapon, and his head was also aching. Under this double pressure, he couldn't even think normally.
"Yaoyao, don't push me, give me some time..."
Gu Jun tried to make Xu Yao believe that his love was genuine, and he was suffering from the lies he told, but Xu Yao hung up the phone.
These are not what Xu Yao wants to hear.
Gu Jun didn't know where he could go.
He couldn't handle anything at the company, and returning to Shenghai Garden made him even more devastated. Should he go to the hotel to wait for Xu Yao? Lin Meixian had begged him not to do so.
The only place Gu Jun could go was the townhouse where Jason lived.
Jason is a very pure person, who only cares about painting. He won't mock Gu Jun like Jiang Zhiyan. Gu Jun is in urgent need of a quiet place like this to accommodate him.
"I'm staying here tonight. I won't bother you. I'll be staying in the room downstairs."
Gu Jun had a splitting headache and his brows were furrowed.
Jason looked at Gu Jun with worried eyes.
Melancholic people are the most sensitive, and Jason sensed pain in Gu Jun.
It shouldn't be like this.
At least Gu Jun was not like this before.
Jason was confused.
What happened?
Is it that Gu Jun can no longer bear the pressure from Fu Hong?
Jason gritted his teeth.
Fu Hong is indeed a mother who has the ability to make her child suffer, and the heavy pressure over the years has left Jason unable to resist.
If Gu Jun hadn't saved Jason, he might not have been able to hold on.
Gu Jun can save him, but who will save Gu Jun?
Seeing Gu Jun curled up on the sofa, mumbling something, Jason leaned over to listen and finally heard clearly.
Gu Jun was calling Xu Yao's name.
He was asking Xu Yao not to leave.
Jason was stunned for a long time.
Some people who are leaving may not have met or fallen in love in the first place. Leaving may be God correcting the deviation.
Jason hurried upstairs and removed the half-finished painting from the easel. The warm painting was originally painted for Jiang Zhiyan, but now Jason had new inspiration.
He paints freely on the canvas, using bold contrasting colors and delicate brushstrokes, sometimes crazy and sometimes gentle.
It's dawn.
The morning sun streamed in through the window, illuminating the work Jason had been painting all night.
"What's its name?"
Gu Jun stood behind Jason without knowing when. Jason's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: "...Fate, it's called fate."
Gu Jun nodded. "It's a great painting. You are really talented. Even if Fu Hong is not so anxious to package you, you will be recognized by the world sooner or later."
Gu Jun really likes Jason's new work.
While "Black Sea" left Gu Jun feeling hopeless and depressed, "Fate" was tragic. It not only vented Jason's emotions, it also moved Gu Jun.
Gu Jun didn't know what fate had planned for him and Xu Yao, but he was obviously not someone who would accept his fate so easily.
Does divorce mean the end?
Gu Jun didn't think so.
When Gu Jun regained his senses, his headache was gone. He began to think about the emotional future of Xu Yao.
"Sell me this painting. You can take the money or the villa."
Gu Jun gave Jason two choices. Before Jason could decide which one to choose, Gu Jun had someone bring "Destiny" to the company.
Gu Jun hung "Destiny" in his office, and the commotion attracted Jiang Zhiyan.
"What's wrong with you?"
"I bought a painting, a new one by Jason."
Jiang Zhiyan took a few glances at "Fate" and confirmed
I really can't resonate with art.
"Are you crazy? Instead of resolving the emotional crisis between you and Xu Yao, you're going to buy paintings?"
Can a painting make Xu Yao forgive Gu Jun?
Jiang Zhiyan is a tough-mouthed person with a soft heart. He clearly said that he doesn't care about Gu Jun, but now he can't help but worry about Gu Jun.
"Xu Yao asked me for a divorce."
Gu Jun's tone was calm, as if he was talking about someone else.
Jiang Zhiyan was shocked: "And then?!"
"Then I decided to agree to her request."
After Gu Jun finished speaking, Jiang Zhiyan was certain: "Are you really sick? Or is it the kind of problem that is incurable in your brain? How can you agree to a divorce? Do you think it's easy to find a woman like Xu Yao who is silly and not interested in money?"
It's normal for Xu Yao to ask for divorce when she's angry.
It would be abnormal if Gu Jun agreed!
What's wrong with this world? Men without wives are eager to have one, but men with wives don't cherish them at all?
Gu Jun looked at the indignant Jiang Zhiyan and suddenly laughed: "You were very sure that Xu Yao was here to cheat me out of my money."
The past is the past, and the present is the present.
"What kind of liar would be so shameless as to sell eyebrow pencils for a few dollars after marrying a rich man? I take back my previous comments about Xu Yao. You should also use your brain and never mention the word divorce again..."
Jiang Zhiyan kept on talking, but Gu Jun was distracted.
Gu Jun was reading "Fate" on the wall.
It doesn’t matter how God arranged the ending of him and Xu Yao. Gu Jun doesn’t believe in fate. He was able to come this far from being born in a shantytown, so naturally he took his destiny into his own hands!
Gu Jun called Xu Yao.
"Yaoyao, I agree to divorce you. When do you want to go through the formalities?"
Gu Jun's attitude changed so quickly that Xu Yao couldn't believe it.
Gu Jun said that Xu Yao could ask Lin Meixian to accompany her.
"Yaoyao, I'm not that bad. I won't hurt you and mom."
Xu Yao received the divorce agreement sent by Gu Jun. Gu Jun had already signed it. Because the two had signed a prenuptial agreement, Xu Yao would not get any property, and Gu Jun did not force her.
Even the house in Shenghai Garden, Gu Jun did not force her to accept it. Accompanied by Lin Meixian, Xu Yao and Gu Jun went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to submit their divorce application.
Xu Yao had heard about the cooling-off period for divorces, but fortunately it had not been actually implemented. Because there was no property dispute, she and Gu Jun got their divorce certificate on the same day.
This was where they had their flash marriage and got their marriage certificate. It started here and ended here. Xu Yao felt lost.
