Chapter 119 After the divorce, we have no further connection.
Chu Qingxue's eyes widened instantly.
Her heart was pounding in her throat, but she couldn't panic.
"Junyan, what do you mean?"
Tears of grievance welled up instantly, and Chu Qingxue cried her heart out.
"Are you saying that I bribed Mo Yan behind your back, and that Mo Yan used Jiang Ning's friends to threaten Jiang Ning into handing over the shares?"
Chu Qingxue questioned Lu Junyan in a hoarse voice, but Lu Junyan remained silent.
Equals to the default.
Chu Qingxue clenched her fists tightly, her sharp nails digging into the flesh of her palms.
Lu Junyan suspected her...
Lu Junyan actually suspects her?!
If it were Lu Junyan back in high school, upon hearing others slander her behind her back like that, she wouldn't even bother to confront them; she would simply make the gossipy person disappear from the school.
Lu Junyan loved her that much.
Because she was his first love.
She was the true love he had sworn to protect for a lifetime.
Chu Qingxue never doubted Lu Junyan's feelings for her; at least, she never doubted them before graduating from high school.
That's why she was confident enough to dump Lu Junyan and go abroad.
She believed that Lu Junyan would not be able to bear to part with her and would give up everything to fly abroad to find her.
However……
Large tears rolled down Chu Qingxue's eyes, falling in a pattering sound like beads from a broken string.
Who changed Lu Junyan?
Is it Jiangning?
Chu Qingxue didn't believe it.
But at this very moment, Lu Junyan is questioning her precisely because of a single sentence Jiang Ning uttered.
"Junyan, is that how you see me? Am I such a treacherous, selfish, despicable, and scheming woman?"
Chu Qingxue's tears flowed uncontrollably, and her voice trembled.
“What is our relationship? We went through that dark period in juvenile detention together when we were teenagers. You protected me, and I protected you. We went from falling in love to sharing life and death... Even though God separated us, we were reunited because of the piano... Even though we broke up later, I still came back, back to your side... Junyan, I have never changed, and you swore that you would never change... But now? Have you really not changed? You would rather believe the instigation of an outsider than believe your understanding of me over the years, my character... This is so disheartening.”
After delivering this long and impassioned speech, Chu Qingxue covered her face and burst into tears.
She cried very hard, heartbroken and devastated.
It wasn't an act.
Lu Junyan couldn't help but ponder Chu Qingxue's words.
Chu Qingxue said that Jiang Ning was an outsider.
But Jiang Ning is his wife, or rather, his wife.
However, Jiang Ning wants to divorce him again, so he can be considered an outsider.
Lu Junyan sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry, Qingxue, it's my fault."
Lu Junyan had known Chu Qingxue for so many years, but this was the first time he had ever seen Chu Qingxue cry so sadly.
This was the first time Chu Qingxue had ever seen Lu Junyan apologize so sincerely in all the years she had known him.
Chu Qingxue wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, sobbing as she said, "Yes, it's good that you believe me."
"Of course I believe you."
Lu Junyan tore off a tissue and wiped away Chu Qingxue's tears, and Chu Qingxue finally smiled through her tears.
"Wait for me to pick you up after get off work tonight. Order whatever you want to eat."
"Is this considered compensation?" Chu Qingxue said coquettishly, "Isn't this too easy for you?"
Lu Junyan smiled and said, "I'll buy you whatever you want after we finish eating."
"That's more like it." Chu Qingxue's tear-streaked face finally regained its usual sweet smile.
She didn't stay in Lu Junyan's office for long. She quickly packed her things and left.
Lu Junyan's gentle voice came from behind:
"Good luck with Jewelry Fashion Week!"
"Mm." Chu Qingxue turned around and smiled before leaving Lu Junyan's office.
The soft lines on Lu Junyan's face gradually turned cold.
He picked up his phone, which was face down on his desk, and made a call.
The first record is a phone call from Jiangning.
But he didn't remember speaking to Jiang Ning.
He dialed the number back, and Jiang Ning's voice came through the receiver very quickly.
"Lu Junyan?"
"It's me. What did you want to talk to me about earlier?"
Jiang Ning, on the other end of the phone, was surprised.
Did Chu Qingxue tell Lu Junyan about her phone call?
Jiang Ning had some doubts.
“I’m at the Cixiang Nursing Home right now. My mom… she says she wants to see you. Can you come over?”
Jiang Ning was a little nervous.
She wasn't sure if Lu Junyan would agree to her request.
Rather, it's strange that she would ask Lu Junyan to visit her mother when they were about to get a divorce.
But Jiang Xiaoya really wanted to see Lu Junyan and kept talking about it in her ear.
"I see."
Before the call ended, the last thing Jiang Ning heard was this: she wasn't sure whether Lu Junyan would come or not.
An hour later, Lu Junyan appeared at the Cixiang Nursing Home.
After Lu Junyan arrived, Jiang Xiaoya became noticeably more excited, talked more, her eyes lit up, and she seemed much more sober.
Jiang Ning was very pleased to see such a big change in Jiang Xiaoya.
However, this change was brought about by Lu Junyan, which made her involuntarily worried.
The two stayed with Jiang Xiaoya at the nursing home for a long time, until the evening rush hour arrived, before they left.
As the sun sets, the streets are bustling with traffic.
The main entrance of Cixiang Nursing Home.
Jiang Ning faced Lu Junyan, stammering and hesitant.
"If you can say you want a divorce so readily, what else can't you say to me?"
Lu Junyan took the initiative to ask.
Jiang Ning looked up, her eyes reflecting Lu Junyan's handsome yet indifferent face.
"I...I'd like to ask you for a favor..."
"What kind of help?"
"After we get divorced, could you occasionally come with me to visit my mom and pretend to cheer her up..."
Jiang Ning found it difficult to voice this request.
Her original intention after divorcing Lu Junyan was not to have any further involvement.
But Jiang Xiaoya's current state makes it very necessary for Lu Junyan to show up.
Lu Junyan remained silent for a long period of time.
The atmosphere between the two was so quiet that it was as if time had stood still.
"We have no relationship after the divorce, so why should I waste my time playing along with your act?"
Lu Junyan had a smile on his face, but what he said was not very pleasant to hear.
These words were not entirely unexpected for Jiang Ning, who sighed.
"You're right, I didn't understand my place..."
Since the conversation had progressed to this point, Jiang Ning wanted to ask about the divorce agreement.
Having learned from Mo Yan's experience, she believed that Lu Junyan would no longer give her shares in the Lu Group. In other words, after the divorce, she would no longer have any financial ties with Lu Junyan.
Jiang Ning believes that Lu Junyan must have already prepared the new divorce agreement.
"By the way, Lu Junyan, if you have the divorce agreement with you, you can give it to me now."
