Chapter 17 Giving Up Custody
Wen Qingrang was sitting cross-legged on the futon when he looked up at Jiang Ranxing and greeted him.
Jiang Ranxing wasn't in the mood to pay attention to him and replied dismissively, "What a coincidence."
Jiang Ranxing found a seat to sit down and didn't want to talk to Wen Qingrang.
The teahouse owner served Jiang Ranxing tea, the aroma of which was light and refreshing.
Just as Jiang Ranxing picked it up and took a sip, Wen Qingrang walked over.
"During our two meetings, Mrs. Fu didn't seem very willing to talk to me. Did I upset her?"
Jiang Ranxing didn't want to say much about his uninvited arrival.
She didn't want to have too much contact with anyone who had anything to do with Fu Shenyuan.
"I'm not familiar with Mr. Wen, so there's nothing to say."
Wen Qingrang smiled and said, "But I am very familiar with Fu Shenyuan."
"So what? Does that mean we have to get to know each other?"
Jiang Ranxing did not understand his theory.
A sharp glint flashed in Wen Qing's eyes.
Wen Qingrang changed the subject: "There's something Mrs. Fu would be interested in, about Ember. I know she's making a comeback."
Jiang Ranxing looked up at him.
Wen Qingrang added, "I can provide Ember with design patterns, patterns that belong only to our Wen family."
The Wen family is fond of literature and is a large family, so they have had a certain influence in City A over the years.
Jiang Ranxing knew that Wen Qingrang's suggestion at this time was like adding wings to a tiger for Ember.
Jiang Ranxing urgently needs to establish herself quickly, and she must fulfill her promise to Grandpa Fu as soon as possible.
This way, her divorce from Fu Shenyuan can proceed smoothly.
However, Wen Qingrang's ambiguous attitude left Jiang Ranxing unsure of what to do.
Wen Qingrang smiled and said, "Mrs. Fu, please don't misunderstand. I just know that you and Ember seem to know each other. I can't find Ember, so I thought I would ask you, Mrs. Fu. I wonder if you would be willing to help me with this."
Jiang Ranxing didn't agree to him immediately. Instead, she drank the tea in one gulp and got up to leave.
"I can't guarantee it, but I'll give it a try," Jiang Ranxing said.
Wen Qingrang watched Jiang Ranxing's departing figure, his eyes hidden in the shadows, unfathomable.
Jiang Ranxing eventually returned to her studio and took out her phone to call her lawyer.
“Attorney Wu, I have read all the materials you sent me. I have some things I want to modify regarding the property division. I have compiled all the property-related issues and sent them to you together.”
Attorney Wu said, "Okay, Ms. Jiang, so what are your and your husband's considerations regarding the custody of your son?"
Jiang Ranxing paused for a moment. She didn't really want to say those words, but she had no choice but to.
This decision went against her maternal instincts, but it respected reality and followed reason.
Jiang Ranxing felt a bitter taste in his throat.
"I don't want custody of my son anymore, give it to my husband."
No matter how difficult this decision is, she has to make it.
Otherwise, if this issue prevents us from moving forward, the divorce will become even more complicated.
She just wanted to divorce Fu Shenyuan as soon as possible.
She wanted to sever all ties with Fu Shenyuan.
Attorney Wu understood Jiang Ranxing's helplessness; he had handled many divorce cases like this and was very experienced.
"Based on your current needs, I will draft another agreement to relinquish custody. At the same time, according to the law firm's regulations, we will also draft an agreement for you to fight for custody."
Often, when a question requires consideration before an answer can be given, it proves that the final answer is not certain.
If Jiang Ranxing really didn't want custody of the child, she wouldn't have hesitated in the first place.
Hesitating to say no is just a subconscious desire.
It's simply because of some pressure that they gave up.
“Ms. Jiang, you have plenty of time to think it over. Our law firm will cooperate with your actions and decisions.”
Attorney Wu is a very humane lawyer who can understand Jiang Ranxing's predicament.
Jiang Ranxing said, "Thank you, but I still choose to give up custody and leave with nothing in the divorce."
"Attorney Wu, please complete the procedures as soon as possible, just do it my way."
She was indeed in a difficult position to make this decision.
But she really didn't want to take anything more from the Fu family.
She would resolutely give up anything or anyone that did not belong to her.
From now on, she will live only for herself.
She gave herself a chance to hesitate, but reality taught her a lesson time and time again.
She no longer wanted to be held back by this marriage.
Her life should be infused with more other vibrant and energetic things.
Attorney Wu said, "Okay, I will draft it according to your requirements."
After hanging up the phone and saying all that, Jiang Ranxing suddenly felt incredibly relieved.
Those who don't love her, let them disappear from her life.
This decision is the right one.
From now on, no matter what, she will want to prioritize loving herself and putting her own feelings first.
She will still choose to be a loving and responsible mother, but that doesn't mean she will try to hold onto a child whose heart isn't with her.
Let Fu Xingyi stay by Fu Shenyuan's side.
Jiang Ranxing will not force him to follow the path he has chosen.
After the divorce, they went their separate ways.
Family ties and blood relations remain, but ultimately, the path we walk is the one we chose.
Fu Xingyi chose the path of becoming Fu Shenyuan.
Jiang Ranxing chose the path of loving herself even more.
After figuring things out, Jiang Ranxing felt quite relieved.
Especially in terms of mental well-being, I feel much lighter.
She decided that unless absolutely necessary, she would never want to go back to the villa.
She took all the documents from the villa, and she didn't want any of the remaining things she and Fu Shenyuan used for living together.
If you want to see Fu Xingyi, have someone bring him out so you can meet him outside.
Mia had talked to her during lunch break while they were working.
"Sis, you really don't want all those things anymore? They're all international brands, right? You could make a lot of money selling them secondhand."
Jiang Ranxing didn't seem to care much: "I don't need that money."
Besides, some of those things were bought with Fu Shenyuan's money.
"Sis, you're amazing! I knew it! Fu Shenyuan isn't good enough for you. I used to think he was handsome and charming, but now he's a complete jerk."
Jiang Ranxing said, "Mia, you're not the only one who thinks this way. I've been infatuated with him for a long time, but when it comes to feelings, if it's not mutual, the ending is mostly tragic, just like mine. You must learn from my mistake and not make the same mistake in the future."
Mia nodded and said, "Sis, can I ask you why you like Fu Shenyuan so much? Is it just because he's rich?"
Jiang Ranxing smiled and said, "When I met him, I didn't know he came from such a family. I only knew that he probably had some money. I just fell in love with him and was determined to marry him."
"Looking back now, I realize that there was a huge difference in our family backgrounds, and I shouldn't have been trying to marry him."
Mia then asked, "What did your parents say? Did they agree to your marriage? Aren't they afraid that I'll be mistreated after marriage?"
Jiang Ranxing thought about his parents, and it was simply unbearable to look back.
