Chapter 472 A Clean Break
Qi Mingxuan lowered her eyes and did not immediately walk into the Civil Affairs Bureau, but stood still and waited.
Just then, a white Mercedes drove up and stopped by the roadside.
The driver's side door opened, and Shao Qing got out of the car with a file bag and walked to Qi Mingxuan's side.
"President Qi, the agreement is all ready. Our President Fu personally reviewed it. Please take another look."
Qi Mingxuan said calmly, "I trust Lawyer Shao and President Fu's abilities. You can show it to President Han."
"Okay." Shao Qing nodded slightly and turned to walk towards Han Mingyu.
Qi Mingxuan did not follow immediately.
Han Mingyu knew that she still couldn't face him.
She hasn't even glanced at him since she got off the bus.
Han Mingyu felt a pang of bitterness and pain in his heart, but he could only accept it.
Shao Qing walked up to Han Mingyu and handed him the file bag: "Mr. Han, this is the divorce agreement that Mr. Qi entrusted me to draft again. Please take a look. If there are no problems, you can sign it and stamp it, and then you can go in to get the divorce certificate."
Han Mingyu took the document and opened the agreement to view it.
In the new agreement, Qi Mingxuan did not ask Han Mingyu for a single penny.
She kept a clear division of their assets.
It was cut off cleanly.
She doesn't want custody of the child either.
After reading the contents, he frowned and looked up at Shao Qing: "Why have these terms been changed? The agreement I gave you was that I would leave with nothing."
“President Qi is unwilling.” Shao Qing explained, “President Qi said that since both children are living in the Han family, and considering the children’s upbringing and various needs, President Han should keep his assets. In any case, the children will all go to the two children when they come of age.”
“Even if I give her all my assets, I can still create a good environment for my two children to grow up in. She doesn’t need to worry at all.”
"Mr. Han, Mr. Qi certainly knows your capabilities. Besides, putting you aside, the Han family is large and powerful, and they certainly wouldn't wrong the two children. Therefore, you should understand why Mr. Qi insists on not accepting your assets."
Han Mingyu was taken aback.
He knew that Qi Mingxuan didn't need him to make amends in this way.
But besides this method, does he have any other options now?
No, he didn't.
The cause and effect were already predetermined from the moment he turned and left eighteen years ago.
Han Mingyu held the agreement in his hand, his gaze sweeping over the woman standing and waiting beside the car.
She lowered her eyes and remained quiet.
With half her face buried in the red scarf, she looked so gentle and beautiful.
The pain in his chest was spreading endlessly. Han Mingyu withdrew his gaze, looked at the agreement in his hand, and said slowly in a deep voice, "Give me the pen."
He signed and put his fingerprint on it.
Shao Qing returned to Qi Mingxuan's side with the agreement signed by Han Mingyu.
"President Qi, President Han has already signed it."
Qi Mingxuan didn't look at it, but neatly signed her name and put her fingerprint where she needed to.
With a divorce agreement, multiple medical reports from Qi Mingxuan, and proof that she is about to go abroad for treatment, the divorce proceedings were processed through a special channel, eliminating the need to wait for the divorce cooling-off period.
After the official stamp was applied, the staff handed them the divorce certificates.
One copy per person.
Qi Mingxuan took the divorce certificate, thanked the staff, and turned to walk straight out.
Han Mingyu stepped out to chase after him.
“Xiao Xuan…”
Qi Mingxuan paused, then quickened her pace and stepped down the stairs towards the vehicles parked on the side of the road.
The sight of his retreating figure, almost as if he were fleeing, stung Han Mingyu's eyes.
Qi Mingxuan got into the car, and the car door closed.
The black Maybach drove forward and gradually disappeared from Han Mingyu's sight.
Han Mingyu lowered his head, looking at the divorce certificate in his hand, tears falling silently, dripping onto the last dot of the word 'divorce'.
Eighteen years ago, Qi Mingxuan said, "Han Mingyu, I really, really like you. Look at me, okay?"
Eighteen years later, Qi Mingxuan said, "Han Mingyu, I regret loving you. Please let me go."
Han Mingyu clutched his chest and slowly squatted down, clutching the divorce certificate tightly. The tall man, over six feet tall, squatted by the roadside, ignoring the stares of others, and sobbed uncontrollably.
...
When Han Mingyu returned to Mingyuan from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Han's mother was pacing back and forth in the living room, holding her crying baby.
Han Mingyu entered the house without even changing his shoes. He took off his coat and handed it to Lan's mother. He then took a few disinfectant wipes to clean his hands and immediately went over to take his daughter from his mother's arms.
Since Xiao Bao was discharged from the hospital, Han Mingyu has been taking care of him almost entirely. However, Xiao Bao is a smart and demanding child who is used to being held by his father and cannot bear to be apart from him for even a short while.
"Don't cry, baby, Daddy's here."
Han Mingyu held his daughter and gently coaxed her.
As soon as Xiao Bao heard his father's voice, his crying mouth instantly shut up.
When Han's mother saw this, her feelings were incredibly mixed: "She really only recognizes you!"
Even her grandmother doesn't taste good anymore!
Han Mingyu gently patted his daughter's bottom with his large hand, "My own daughter, isn't it normal for her to be close to me?"
Han's mother was jealous, "That's my own granddaughter too!"
"She must be hungry." Han Mingyu glanced at the time. "Mom, could you ask Sister Yu to make some formula for Xiaobao? She's been eating more these past few days, so she needs 90 ml."
After Han's mother gave the instructions, Yu Jie immediately went upstairs to prepare the milk.
Han Mingyu sat down on the sofa, holding Xiaobao in his arms.
"Is everything taken care of?" Han's mother asked cautiously while gently teasing her granddaughter.
Han Mingyu paused for a moment, then responded softly, "Yes, it's done."
The last glimmer of hope in Han's mother's heart was completely shattered.
She sighed inwardly, "If you leave with nothing, then what about Lixiang's management rights..."
"She didn't want it."
Han's mother paused, "What do you mean by 'not wanting'?"
“She didn’t want anything.” Han Mingyu gently curled his lip. “Mom, she doesn’t even need my compensation.”
Han's mother's heart tightened.
This is a complete and utter break!
"From now on, just focus on raising your two children well." Han's mother looked at her granddaughter. "Life is full of disappointments. You've always been stubborn, but I know you're not a bad person. Just consider it a late bloomer! After experiencing all this and becoming a father, a sense of responsibility will make you more mature."
Han Mingyu closed his eyes, "But my growth was bought with half a lifetime of suffering for her. Mom, I am unforgivable."
Han's mother hugged him. "Son, I can't comfort you, but for the sake of the two children, no matter how bitter you are, you have to persevere, okay?"
Han Mingyu closed his eyes.
He thought that perhaps this was fate's retribution for him.
He lost his beloved, yet he could not atone with his death.
He had to live, and he had to live very earnestly and diligently, for the sake of his two children.
...
A villa by the sea in the suburbs.
The door to the room on the second floor opened.
An indescribable odor permeated the entire room.
Guan Shuo, wearing a mask, stood at the door, his gaze sweeping coolly over Lin Xiaoyue on the large bed.
