Chapter 109 Dying on the Operating Table
During the time she was preparing for LD Jewelry Fashion Week, Jiang Ning wasn't entirely without focus on her divorce agreement with Lu Junyan.
She couldn't refuse the 10% share that Lu Junyan wanted to give her. She either had to accept it, which would mean ending her marriage with Lu Junyan, but they would become colleagues.
Either refuse, or the divorce agreement will be void again.
After much deliberation, Jiang Ning decided to accept the offer.
She first signed three copies of the divorce agreement, and then waited for Lu Junyan to return to China after his business trip.
This time... she and Lu Junyan are really getting a divorce.
Sitting in his office, Jiang Ning looked at the divorce agreement in his hand, feeling a mix of emotions.
She wouldn't miss Lu Junyan, much less her broken marriage.
If there's anything Jiang Ning should regret, it's that she wasted ten whole years of her youth and love.
The phone rang once; it was Lu Junyan replying.
The reply contained only one word:
good.
He is sparing with words and as cold as ice.
Jiang Ning sighed.
After arranging a time with Lu Junyan, Jiang Ning took the divorce agreement and drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
At the same time, Lu Junyan was also driving, but Chu Qingxue was sitting in his car, and he wanted to take Chu Qingxue home first.
The industrial park is quite far from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and there was traffic congestion on the road. Jiang Ning sat in the car waiting for the traffic light, feeling restless and anxious.
Just then, a phone call came in.
Jiang Ning initially thought that Lu Junyan had arrived first and was getting impatient, which was why he took the initiative to contact her.
The caller ID showed an unknown number.
"Hello?"
Jiang Ning answered the phone using a Bluetooth headset.
"Excuse me, are you Ms. Jiang Ning?"
"I am."
"Hello Ms. Jiang, this is Cixiang Nursing Home. We regret to inform you that due to the negligence of our newly arrived intern staff, your mother has secretly run away from the nursing home..."
"What?!"
Jiang Ning almost slammed on the brakes after just passing the traffic light.
"I'm so sorry, we've already contacted the police. Because when you came last time, you said you'd call me first if there were any problems, not Mr. Lu, so..."
Jiang Ning had no interest in listening to what was to come.
Her mother ran out!
Even if her mother had been lucid before, she was sometimes lucid and sometimes confused. If she ran out like that, something bad would definitely happen!
Jiang Ning suddenly turned the steering wheel, and the white BMW 3 Series made a beautiful turn.
This road doesn't lead to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The Bentley in imperial blue.
Chu Qingxue smiled radiantly.
"Junyan, are you going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce today?"
"Um."
Seeing Lu Junyan nod and answer without hesitation, Chu Qingxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally...they're getting a divorce...
The wonderful day she had been waiting for was finally coming!
Chu Qingxue couldn't suppress her joy and excitement, but on the surface she still had to maintain a peaceful demeanor, especially in front of Lu Junyan.
Just as they were about to reach her house, Lu Junyan's phone suddenly rang.
Lu Junyan pressed the answer button on the steering wheel.
"Hello, are you Mr. Lu Junyan?"
The man's voice coming from the car's infotainment system sounded unfamiliar to Chu Qingxue.
“Yes, that’s me,” Lu Junyan replied.
"This is the city's central hospital. Your wife, Ms. Jiang Ning, has just been in a car accident. She was speeding while searching for her lost mother and collided with a large truck. She has been admitted to the ICU and is currently undergoing emergency treatment. We need a family member to come and sign the necessary documents."
The people at the hospital seemed used to this kind of thing; their tone was businesslike, and there was no sympathy or regret in their voices.
Inside the car, there was complete silence.
Even Chu Qingxue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was surprised.
However, Lu Junyan remained unfazed.
"I see."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
"Junyan, let's hurry to the hospital to see Jiangning!"
Chu Qingxue said hurriedly.
She wanted to see if Jiang Ning could still get out of the ICU.
It would be best to die inside, ending it all.
However, Lu Junyan drove his car to her building without saying a word.
"Junyan, do you not want me to go to the hospital?"
Before getting out of the car, Chu Qingxue turned to Lu Junyan and asked him a question, her eyes filled with a sense of disappointment at not being trusted.
"no."
Lu Junyan shook his head.
"It's because I didn't go to the hospital."
"What?"
Chu Qingxue was taken aback.
"I have something to take care of, so I'll go to the hospital later. I'll go after I've finished my business."
Lu Jun spoke calmly, neither warm nor cold, leaving Chu Qingxue unable to decipher his words.
Jiang Ning was in a car accident and is in the ICU, his life hanging in the balance, but Lu Junyan actually said he had to take care of other things first and then go to the hospital.
Chu Qingxue felt both incredulous and secretly delighted.
It seems that Lu Junyan really doesn't love Jiang Ning at all.
Not only did he not love her, he didn't even care whether Jiang Ning lived or died.
Chu Qingxue couldn't help but want to laugh, but it would be too impolite to laugh at this juncture, and would only leave a bad impression on Lu Junyan.
"Junyan, be careful on your journey. If anything happens at the hospital, please contact me immediately. You know I want to be with you. If needed, I'd even be happy to stay with you at the hospital. I'm not that petty; in this kind of situation, every extra person helps!"
Chu Qingxue's attitude was sincere, and Lu Junyan nodded after listening.
"Okay, I'll contact you then."
The imperial blue Bentley disappeared from Chu Qingxue's sight. Chu Qingxue stood still, arms crossed, unable to contain her pride and joy any longer.
"Despicable people will get their just desserts!"
Jiang Ning, this time, you'll die on the operating table!
Cupid Royal International Wedding Manor.
Fu Xinyue walked out of the locker room.
"Jun Zhe, what do you think of this outfit?"
She posed in front of Ning Junzhe, holding up her large skirt.
Ning Junzhe glanced at Fu Xinyue, said "very beautiful," and then continued to play on his phone.
This reaction was the same when Fu Xinyue wore her first wedding dress.
She's now on her seventh wedding dress.
Fu Xinyue is not stupid, nor will she deceive herself.
She knew perfectly well that Ning Junzhe's heart wasn't with her.
The two met through a blind date and their marriage was arranged by their families. Lacking an emotional foundation, it's normal for them to react this way.
However, Fu Xinyue was not willing to admit defeat.
She received an elite education from childhood, and she also wants to marry a wealthy and elite man of equal social standing.
Ning Junzhe perfectly met her standards in terms of status, appearance, and age.
Fu Xinyue didn't particularly like Ning Junzhe.
Men are never meant to be liked.
Men are meant to be conquered.
Fu Xinyue didn't believe that Ning Junzhe wouldn't fall for her charms given her qualities.
Even if it doesn't exist now, it definitely will in the future.
"Jun Zhe, I've changed into ten wedding dresses already. Which one do you think looks the best?"
"They all look good."
Ning Junzhe's answer was perfunctory, but Fu Xinyue smiled.
"I don't need to take ten wedding photos in one set, it would be too tiring to change them all, and the photographer said I have to choose one as the main dress."
Even after Fu Xinyue said that, Ning Junzhe didn't know how to respond.
Fu Xinyue's wedding dresses were indeed all beautiful and extremely luxurious, all heavily made with long trains, either covered with crystals and diamonds or using a large amount of intricate lace.
Ning Junzhe looked at them and felt that each one was pretty much the same.
He stood up from the sofa and, among the dazzling array of wedding dresses, took out the simplest one—
A pure white, all-satin princess square-neck wedding dress with a short train, without any embellishments or decorations.
"Why don't you try this one?" Ning Junzhe suggested.
Fu Xinyue disliked this wedding dress the most because it was too plain, but since Ning Junzhe recommended it, she gladly took it into the dressing room.
In fact, Ning Junzhe himself did not think this wedding dress was suitable for Fu Xinyue.
He felt it was suitable for Jiangning.
In the dressing room, Fu Xinyue, who was changing into her wedding dress, seemed to hear Ning Junzhe answer a phone call outside.
"Jun Zhe, I'm all changed."
She walked out of the dressing room wearing the wedding dress that Ning Junzhe had chosen for her.
Outside, Ning Junzhe, who should have been sitting on the sofa waiting for her, was nowhere to be seen.
