Chapter 82 Chapter 82 "After the divorce, you can take everything away, ...
Yao Yingxia seemed not to hear, but just looked at the document. She knew clearly that there would be nothing good in it.
In the past, no matter how much the two of them quarreled, no one else would be involved. Now that he has mobilized such a large force, it is probably not just a small quarrel as before.
Yao Yingxia really didn't want to face what was about to happen.
The sun was about to sink below the horizon, and its cold afterglow was about to be unable to cover the darkness in the sky.
Lawyer Wang looked at his watch and said, "Your flight CA6789 is tonight at 8 o'clock, right? I happen to be on the same flight as you. Why don't we get going? The driver is already waiting at the roadside."
Yao Yingxia didn't know how she walked to the school gate or how she got on the car. When she came to her senses, the car had already started.
Seeing her distraught look, Lawyer Wang seemed to want to say something but hesitated. However, there was no point in saying more at the moment. Besides, he still had the most basic professional ethics, so he chose to keep his mouth shut.
Yao Yingxia felt exhausted. She leaned back in the back seat, tilting her head slightly to gaze out the window at the sky. She'd heard a typhoon was approaching, making landfall in the waters near City A. City S, thousands of miles away, seemed calm.
Lawyer Wang glanced at her again. Miss Yao was far more patient than he had imagined. He had thought she would take this opportunity to take a good look at the document, but she was more focused on the scenery outside the window, as if she wouldn't have the chance to do so again if she didn't take a few more glances.
By the time we arrived at the airport, the night had already set in. The clouds were thick, the sky was starless, and the wind was as sharp as a scimitar. The typhoon's impact was gradually expanding, and it had finally reached here.
Yao Yingxia let Lawyer Wang take her luggage down. The two of them completed the check-in procedures in unusual silence, and then sat in the VIP lounge near the boarding gate.
Only at this moment did she mentally prepare herself and open the document.
The title on the first page is very eye-catching - the big words "Divorce Agreement" jump out at the paper.
Yao Yingxia was momentarily dazed. This was too much like a dream. In fact, she had imagined more than once that she could obtain this item and completely part ways with Shen Xingchuan.
But that was only after Xu Nian passed away. She had to use every possible means and scheme, and also depend on Shen Xingchuan's mercy, to achieve her vision.
The appearance of this thing in front of her was too inopportune. She and Xiao An's mother still needed to receive treatment at Chuanhe Hospital. If they divorced at this point, Shen Xingchuan might not continue to provide help.
Her mother's condition had clearly begun to improve, and she might wake up one day. How could she bear to give up?
Yao Yingxia had a lot of complicated thoughts running around in her mind. It took her a long time to suppress them temporarily and open the document.
She originally wanted to read the terms carefully, but the densely packed small characters crowded in front of her eyes. Yao Yingxia tried for a long time before she realized that although she knew every word, she could not understand the meaning of the sentence. It seemed that her brain's cognitive function had completely stopped.
In her current state, it was not suitable for her to read this fifty-page document. Yao Yingxia simply closed the document and turned to look at Lawyer Wang sitting across from her: "Mr. Shen, do you have anything to convey to me?"
Lawyer Wang touched his nose, probably feeling that what he was going to say next was a little difficult to say, but he was employed by Mr. Shen and had to complete the task he assigned.
After taking a sip of coffee, Lawyer Wang was able to speak calmly, "Although you and Mr. Shen have only been married for a short time, this relationship has already troubled him because you—"
Yao Yingxia's eyes were so clear, like a mountain elf who had never grown up in this world. But she also looked like she couldn't stand being frightened, and her whole body exuded fragility. All this made Lawyer Wang's breathing even longer.
He looked away, not continuing to look into Yao Yingxia's eyes, so that he could continue to accuse Mr. Shen of her: "Because you neither fulfill your wife's obligations nor try to maintain this marriage relationship, but you have been enjoying Mr. Shen's one-sided efforts. Even the deepest feelings cannot withstand such consumption."
Yao Yingxia subconsciously wanted to laugh, as if she had heard something out of the ordinary. Judging from the content of this passage alone, she was simply a complete scumbag, and Shen Xingchuan was just a poor victim.
But he knew best how the two of them got together. Shen Xingchuan couldn't force her to continue to act like she loved him against her will after she had been hurt.
Her pale lips lifted slightly, then finally pursed tightly. She looked like a thief who was wrongly accused of stealing something and was publicly tried after being caught red-handed, but the stolen goods in her hands were clearly forced into her hands.
Yao Yingxia's skin was already cold and pale, and now it looked as if every last drop of blood had been sucked out of her veins. She looked like a white-faced puppet that had lost its soul.
Lawyer Wang is in his early forties and has a daughter in high school who looks about the same age as Miss Yao. It is difficult for him to control his overflowing sympathy.
If this conversation wasn't being broadcast live to that person, he thought he could comfort her a little.
Lawyer Wang glanced down at the bug stuck on the inside of his collar, and now he could only proceed according to the original plan.
Yao Yingxia tried hard to digest the accusation before she could speak again. She pushed the document at hand toward Lawyer Wang and said, "Can you tell me the more important details here?"
When it came to his area of expertise, Lawyer Wang was obviously much more comfortable. While turning the document to the corresponding position, he pointed to her and said, "Mr. Shen gave you many expensive gifts before. After the divorce, you can take them all away without returning them. This part is a complete gift."
She didn't react at all when she heard it. It was like she went to the market to buy vegetables and was given a bunch of coriander before leaving. It was fine to have it, and it didn't matter if she didn't.
Lawyer Wang flipped through a few more pages of the document and said, "As divorce compensation, Mr. Shen will also give you two million in cash for your disposal."
Compared to Shen Xingchuan's net worth, this sum was pitifully small. For the average middle-class person, it was roughly equivalent to a penny. But for a young woman from an ordinary family, it was a considerable fortune. Combined with the gift she had just received, as long as Yao Yingxia didn't squander her money, she could live a comfortable life in any second-tier city.
She lowered her eyes after hearing this, clenched and unclenched her fists, and finally smiled. "Lawyer Wang, I think you know very well that this is not what I want to hear. He probably didn't send you here just to let me know how 'generous' he is."
Since Shen Xingchuan has chosen to completely break off relations, he certainly won't just show his "warm" side. After all, Yao Yingxia knows him that well.
Lawyer Wang admired her sharpness, but he couldn't help but feel sorry for her when he thought about such a young girl who was inexperienced in the world and had to try to get the skin of a tiger with such a scheming man.
When Mr. Shen really wants to deal with someone, he always hits the vital point without bloodshed. Now it is simply a dimensionality reduction attack.
No matter how much he felt bad, he finally got to the point. Lawyer Wang flipped to the very back of the document and said, "Your mother was hospitalized in a car accident in mid-November last year. As of the end of April this year, the total cost of her hospitalization was 32,475,681 yuan."
The total cost of the treatment lasted five and a half months, averaging nearly six million per month. Such a daunting figure is simply unaffordable for ordinary families, who would generally give up on treatment.
Lawyer Wang's speech suddenly quickened, as if he wanted to finish the part that was making him feel depressed as quickly as possible: "Mr. Shen means that you don't need to return the medical expenses. But after the divorce, he is no longer obligated to take care of your mother. Ms. Xu needs to move out of Chuanhe Hospital as soon as possible. After all, the beds there are very tight."
At this point, Miss Yao, who was sitting opposite, broke down completely and could no longer maintain her composure.
Lawyer Wang saw that her beautiful eyes were unable to focus and looked empty and scary. He quickly comforted her and said, "Don't worry too much. Mr. Shen has given you a month's buffer time. You can contact a suitable hospital immediately."
There was a whistling sound of wind in Yao Yingxia's ears. Even though she didn't know how strong Shen Xingchuan's desire for divorce was, she still felt the fear as if the end of the world was coming.
Even if he could find a hospital with decent medical care and successfully place Xu Nian there, it wouldn't be enough for his mother to maintain her previous standard of living. And the divorce compensation he'd given her would probably be gone in no time, not to mention the medical resources Shen Xingchuan had secured for Xu Nian.
Yao Yingxia felt so helpless that her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, like a leaf struck down by a violent storm. Without the support of the wind, it would soon fall into the mud and become nutrients for the earth.
In the past, Lawyer Wang only dealt with individuals or companies that had grudges against Mr. Shen. Most of the other parties had some strength, otherwise they would not have the courage to go against Mr. Shen.
This was the first time he'd struck such a vulnerable opponent, and the other party was completely defeated. Lawyer Wang sighed silently and helped her get another glass of warm water. "Ms. Yao, are you okay? We'll work it out when the time comes..."
Lawyer Wang didn't even believe such useless words when she said them. Mr. Shen was determined to push her to the brink of despair and had no intention of leaving her any chance of survival.
The announcement to board the plane just happened to ring at this moment. Yao Yingxia finally came back to her senses and looked at him and asked, "Is Mr. Shen absolutely determined to get a divorce, or is there still room for maneuver?"
This is important to her, enough to determine how hard she works next.
Lawyer Wang has served Mr. Shen for many years. Although she could roughly guess what her boss was thinking, it was not easy for her to tell her directly, so she could only say vaguely: "It is better for you to talk to Mr. Shen in person. We should go to board the plane."
Yao Yingxia tried hard to get up, but found that her limbs were cold and stiff. Lawyer Wang watched her suddenly dig her nails into her arm. Perhaps because she used too much force or her skin was too tender, crescent-shaped blood marks soon appeared there.
Lawyer Wang exclaimed, "Ms. Yao!"
She didn't seem to feel any pain, but stood up like a zombie and looked out the window at the night view: "It's going to rain."
