Xu Wan knew before she arrived that someone would bring up this matter when she returned to Yinyi Town.
Fortunately, she is no longer the little girl she used to be.
Xu Wan gently bit her lip, controlling her emotions before saying, "It's good that you know. I hope our negotiations go smoothly today."
Yu Shuangshuang looked at Xu Wan with a surprised expression.
In her memory, whenever someone brought up this matter during her school days, she would initially cry and argue for her mother, but later she would silently run away.
I never imagined that she would turn out like this after so many years.
Xie Ning, however, was not so good-tempered. Her expression changed upon hearing this. "Yu Shuangshuang, why did you bring someone like this to talk?"
“Wanwan is an excellent lawyer, working at the very famous Tianyuan Law Firm in Beicheng. Of course I’ll go to her.” Yu Shuangshuang pulled Xu Wan down to sit. “No matter what, I will not give up on Nannan.”
"She's outstanding? I've never heard of a murderer's daughter being outstanding," Zuo Changdong said bluntly. "I suggest we call the police immediately. Can a murderer's daughter really run away like that?"
"Then call the police and see if they'll take it into account."
As Xu Wan spoke, her two hands, hidden under the table, were clenched into fists.
She knew that if she showed even the slightest weakness, she wouldn't be able to help Yu Shuangshuang.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Xie Ning acted as a mediator and said to Yu Shuangshuang, "You don't even have a job, and your child is over two years old. Even if we go to court, it's impossible for the court to award the child to you."
"But you're gay! You're committing marriage fraud! I'll tell the judge all this!"
Yu Shuangshuang responded excitedly.
Compared to Yu Shuangshuang's agitation, Xie Ning remained remarkably calm. "Homosexuality? What evidence do you have?"
"you……"
"You got pregnant not long after we got married. The doctor advised against us having sex, and you had a C-section. I felt sorry for you because childbirth was hard for you, so I haven't slept with you. What evidence do you have that I'm gay?"
"You and your friend slept in our house that day!"
"Don't spread rumors. We were just playing games together at home that day. You said we slept together, do you have any evidence? Lawsuits are based on evidence, not just what you say that the judge will believe."
Xie Ning remained very calm.
It was obvious that he came prepared.
Yu Shuangshuang's eyes reddened with anxiety. "Wanwan, please help me!"
“Mr. Xie, I came to see you today to see if this matter can be settled privately. After all, we were husband and wife, and Yinyi Town is a small place. It would be bad for both of us if it came to the point of going to court.” Xu Wan paused and continued, “Besides, the nature of your job is not something you can just change on a whim.”
Zuo Changdong laughed loudly: "I knew this murderer's daughter was hopeless. A lawyer, indeed! I bet it's all a lie!"
"Xie Ning! Is your friend sick? We're talking about divorce, why is she keeping bringing up Wanwan?"
Yu Shuangshuang couldn't help but retort.
Xie Ning disagreed, "That's just his personality. Besides, he wouldn't have said anything if your friend hadn't done this. But I suggest you accept my terms and get a divorce directly. With her abilities, going to court would be a waste of money."
"Impossible, Mr. Xie. Since you don't agree to mediation, then we'll see you in court."
Xu Wan stood up, pulled Yu Shuangshuang, and walked outside.
Yu Shuangshuang kept saying from the side, "Wanwan, I'm so sorry, I didn't know he had found such a friend."
"It's okay, I was mentally prepared before I came back."
Xu Wan patted Yu Shuangshuang's hand.
The car that Jiang Tingzhou had prepared for her was parked at the entrance.
Just as the two opened the car door and got in, Zuo Changdong chased after them and asked, "Xu Wan, are you married? With your circumstances, it must be hard to find a partner, right? If you're willing to wash my feet every day, then I might consider marrying you."
Xu Wan gripped the doorknob tightly and said to the driver, "Drive."
No sooner had the car driven away than Zuo Changdong flashed Xie Ning his WeChat payment code: "You did a good job, buddy? Let's settle the bill."
Xie Ning took out her phone and transferred 500 yuan.
