Chapter 342 Agreed to Separate
Chi Lin suddenly changed the subject. "I heard you and Fu Qichuan reached an agreement? Did you sign the project?"
Ji Wan nodded, "Yes, we have reached a preliminary cooperation intention on the Hengxin project."
"How interesting," Chi Lin sneered. "I tried my best to deal with Fu Qichuan, but you succeeded as soon as you stepped in? What tricks did you use?"
Ji Wan narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "What do you mean?"
"You know what I mean." Chi Lin's eyes swept over her. "Would someone like Fu Qichuan be easily moved by a plan? Unless..."
Before he could finish his words, a loud slap landed on his face.
“Pah.”
Chi Lin was hit so hard that his head tilted to the side, and a clear palm print soon appeared on his face. He was stunned for a moment, then glared at Ji Wan.
"You dare to hit me?"
Ji Wan was trembling all over, his eyes filled with anger and contempt. "Chi Lin, you really disgust me. You suspect I'm exchanging my body for resources? Just because I did something you couldn't?"
Chi Lin touched his slapped face and did not refute.
"I really misjudged you." Ji Wan said coldly, "It's okay that you cheated on Ning Weiwei, but now you're slandering me? Are you trying to divert attention from your own infidelity?"
Chi Lin's expression changed, "I didn't cheat..."
"Stop pretending," Ji Wan interrupted him, his voice filled with fatigue and boredom. "This morning at Fengming Temple, I saw you and Ning Weiwei together. You lied to me that you were going to meet a client, and you lied to me that you were going to see Mom, and what happened? You were in the temple with Ning Weiwei praying."
Chi Lin's expression changed. "You...you saw it?"
"Not just today." Ji Wan took a deep breath and decided to lay out all the truth. "On our wedding night, I saw you and Ning Weiwei kissing in a corner of the garden. We had just finished the wedding and the guests hadn't left yet, but you couldn't wait to go find her."
Chi Lin's face turned pale, obviously he didn't expect that Ji Wan already knew about this.
"You...you saw it..." His voice was dry, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"What?" Ji Wan laughed sarcastically, "You said I saw the groom being intimate with another woman? At that time, I thought I was seeing things, or maybe it was just a momentary impulse. I gave you so many chances, but what about you? You never cherished them."
When she said these words, her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe.
Chi Lin fell silent. He lowered his head and spoke in a low voice, "Yes, I admit that I cheated, but Wanwan, you are also responsible. On our wedding night, you didn't let me touch you, saying you wanted to wait a few days. And Ning Weiwei, she is always so enthusiastic and proactive..."
"So this is my fault?" Ji Wan couldn't believe her ears. "Because I was too tired on the day of my wedding and wanted to rest for a few days, you immediately went to find another woman? Is this what you call loving me?"
Chi Lin hurriedly explained, "No, that's not what I meant. I just... I'm also a man with needs. But I really love you, Wanwan. Ning Weiwei is just..."
"Physical relationship?" Ji Wan sneered, "That's truly touching loyalty, Mr. Chi."
"Wanwan, please forgive me..." Chi Lin took a step forward and wanted to grab her hand, "I promise I won't do it again. I will completely sever ties with Ning Weiwei and never see her again..."
Ji Wan took a step back, avoiding his touch. "Like you promised last night? And then you're with her again today? Chi Lin, your promise is worthless to me."
Chi Lin lowered his hands in frustration. "I know I was wrong, really. But Wanwan, we've been together for so long, is this the end?"
"Yes, it's over." Ji Wan said firmly, "I want to divorce you."
Chi Lin's face changed drastically. "Divorce? No, Wanwan, we can start over..."
"Restart what?" Ji Wan interrupted him, "Restart your lies and deceptions? Restart your life with me while having an affair with Ning Weiwei? Chi Lin, there's no possibility between us anymore."
A flash of despair flashed across Chi Lin's eyes, and then they turned gloomy again, "Are you serious? Do you really want to divorce me?"
"One hundred percent serious." Ji Wan answered without hesitation.
"Because of Chi Wenyan?" Chi Lin stared at her, with a dangerous hint in his voice, "Is there something between you and him?"
Ji Wan sneered, "I knew you would think so. There is nothing between Chi Wenyan and me. He is just a responsible man who saved my mother at a critical moment. And you, who claim to love my husband, are dating a mistress when my mother needs you."
Chi Lin was choked by her words and was speechless for a moment.
"Now, I'm giving you two choices." Ji Wan's voice was calm and firm. "First, we divorce immediately, divide all the property equally, and go our separate ways. Second, after the Qihai project is completed and the money in the account is returned, we can divorce again. It's your choice."
A calculating glint flashed in Chi Lin's eyes, "What if I choose the second one?"
"Then for the next six months, we'll maintain our marriage on the surface, but you must move out and not interfere with my life." Ji Wan's conditions were clear. "Also, you must sign an agreement guaranteeing that my share of the property will be returned to me after the project is completed."
Chi Lin thought for a moment, "What if I don't agree to divorce?"
Ji Wan sneered, "Then I will immediately expose your relationship with Ning Weiwei to the media, and report the financial problems of Chao Sheng Company. Believe me, I have enough evidence to bring you down."
Chi Lin's expression changed again and again, "Are you investigating me?"
"It's just self-protection." Ji Wan said calmly, "Well, have you made your choice?"
Chi Lin took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress his anger, "I choose the second one. But I have a condition - in the next six months, you can't have any private contact with Chi Wenyan."
Ji Wan sneered, "You are not qualified to make conditions to me, but since you care so much, I can promise you that I will not take the initiative to contact him. But if it is necessary for work, I will not avoid it."
Chi Lin stared at her closely, as if trying to read something from her eyes, and finally nodded, "Okay, it's settled."
"I'll have my lawyer prepare an agreement tomorrow, and you need to sign it." Ji Wan said, turning around and preparing to leave.
"Wait," Chi Lin called her, "Where are you going?"
"Go see my mom, then go back to the hotel." Ji Wan said without looking back, "Don't follow me."
Chi Lin stood there, watching Ji Wan's back gradually disappear into the night, the expression on his face complex and unpredictable.
He slowly walked towards the luxury car that he had smashed beyond recognition, stroked the broken glass and dented car body, and smiled self-deprecatingly.
"You really screwed up, Chi Lin."
After all, he couldn't resolve his past grudges with Ji Wan.
But he would never let go so easily.
Thinking of this, his eyes turned vicious.
At the same time, Ji Wan walked into the nursing home and went straight to his mother's ward.
Hua Ying has woken up and is chatting with Jing Nanxing. She seems to be in a good mood.
"Wanwan, you're back." Hua Ying smiled happily upon seeing her daughter. "Where's that young man? Is his injury healed?"
Ji Wan looked at her mother in surprise. She didn't expect that she would remember Chi Wenyan. "He's fine. He's gone home. Mom, how do you feel?"
