Chapter 137 The Signed Divorce Agreement
Jiang Ning took the package in his hand.
It was a paper envelope, just the right size to hold three copies of the divorce agreement.
Jiang Ning didn't open the envelope in the office, but patiently waited until he got home.
It was late at night.
The old houses on Sanhu Street are lit up.
Jiang Ning sat at his desk and took the contents of the envelope out.
The words "Divorce Agreement" in large print immediately caught Jiang Ning's eye as the title.
Jiang Ning flipped through the pages one by one.
Her memory was still decent; she remembered the contents of the previous divorce agreement.
This document is exactly the same as the previous one, at least in the beginning.
It seems that although Lu Junyan spent so much time rewriting the divorce agreement after returning home, he did not secretly dig any traps in the text.
After looking at it for a while, Jiang Ning finally saw the contents of the divorce agreement.
As expected, the content changed afterward.
However, the revised terms were different from what Jiang Ning had expected.
Lu Junyan still added the condition that he would transfer 10% of the shares of Lu's Group to her after the divorce, but the prerequisites were much more numerous, with many more restrictions.
For example, it is explicitly stipulated that she may not transfer the 10% of shares transferred to Jiang Ning after the divorce, neither by giving them away for free nor by selling them for a fee.
Jiang Ning scratched his hair.
She was a little irritated.
She didn't understand why, when Lu Junyan was so angry last time because she had promised Mo Yan shares, the revised divorce agreement still contained the same content after such a long delay.
Lu Junyan must have been very disappointed in her after what happened last time.
He probably felt that she had betrayed his trust.
After reading the divorce agreement, Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh.
As a result, Lu Junyan was willing to set so many watertight restrictions to give her 10% of the Lu Group's shares.
Jiang Ning knew he shouldn't overthink it.
But she couldn't help but wonder if Lu Junyan really wanted to maintain some kind of connection with her after the divorce.
Jiang Ning shook his head, took out a pen, and signed his name on three copies of the divorce agreement.
Next to it was Lu Junyan's signature.
Lu Junyan's handwriting is still as elegant and graceful as ever.
Jiang Ning thought that Lu Junyan must be very satisfied with this divorce agreement and confident that she would agree, so he signed the document first.
After carefully putting away the signed divorce agreement, Jiang Ning picked up her phone and just then received a WeChat message from Lu Junyan:
Tomorrow morning at 10:30, Civil Affairs Bureau.
The concise and clear instructions are very much in Lu Junyan's style.
Jiang Ning replied with an "okay," put down her phone, washed up, and went to bed.
The next day, which seemed peaceful, was anything but.
Chu Qingxue also did not come to the company today.
She's throwing a tantrum at home.
"How could Mo Yan be so stupid! I didn't say directly that I wanted to be on 'Radiance,' but even a fool could understand what I meant, right?"
Chu Qingxue threw the cushions on the sofa onto the floor.
She had a good plan: with Mo Yan's help, she could also appear on Miranda's "Radiance" like Jiang Ning.
The reason she cooperated so well during the filming that day, working herself to the bone without complaint, was because she thought she was on "Radiance".
When the latest issue of "Radiance" was released, there wasn't a single mention of her, not even a hint of her.
On the contrary, a third-rate magazine at the same time used the photos she took at that time as its cover.
Chu Qingxue had never even heard of that third-rate magazine; all the advertisements in it were for health products.
It wasn't until this moment that Chu Qingxue realized that Mo Yan had contacted Miranda to take photos for her, but she didn't know exactly how Mo Yan and Miranda had talked, and she blamed herself for not explaining it to Mo Yan clearly at the time.
Nowadays, Jiangning is becoming increasingly famous and popular, while many of her employees are leaving to switch jobs. She even overheard some employees secretly mocking her in the restroom, saying that she even shoots for those low-class magazines, and that she knows very well that her designs are only at the level of Yiwu Small Commodities Market.
"Alright, Qingxue, getting so angry over such a small thing, how childish!" Fan Yali couldn't stand it anymore.
Chu Qingxue has been like this for the past few days: hysterical, emotionally unstable, not going to work, and just throwing tantrums.
"Is this a small matter? Mom, you have no idea how embarrassed I am!"
"So what?" Fan Yali thought Chu Qingxue was being spineless. "What's the use of getting angry now that things have come to this? Jiang Ning is currently riding high and making a name for herself. Maybe she's having a career breakthrough. Don't you know what you should be doing?"
Fan Yali's words calmed Chu Qingxue down a bit.
"Mom, you mean..."
"Lu Junyan!"
Fan Yali tapped the coffee table repeatedly.
"She's having a good career, so you steal her man and make her lose in love."
"I didn't steal her man. Junyan was mine to begin with. I was the first person Junyan met, and I'm the person Junyan loves!"
Chu Qingxue put her hands on her hips, indignant.
"That's more like it! Instead of getting angry about Jiang Ning's successful career, why not work on Lu Junyan and get him to divorce Jiang Ning and marry you... Qingxue, Jiang Ning's popularity is only temporary. How much wealth can a designer like her have? How much wealth does the Lu Group have?"
Chu Qingxue listened intently to Fan Yali's analysis, her big eyes darting around.
"Once you sit in the position of the mistress of the Lu Group, will you still need to pay attention to Jiang Ning? At that time, you will be the one who gains both fame and fortune, while Jiang Ning will only lose both her wealth and her reputation."
Fan Yali's words comforted Chu Qingxue, who took a deep breath, and all her emotions from the past few days vanished.
Just as she was about to redo her makeup and go to the Lu Group to find Lu Junyan, a trending topic she accidentally saw on her phone made her eyes widen. She couldn't even hold her phone, and it fell to the ground with a thud.
Lu's Group.
General Manager's Office.
Jiang Ning angrily slammed her phone onto the desk in front of Lu Junyan.
The phone screen was still lit, and the news on it was clearly visible.
"Lu Junyan, what do you mean!"
Faced with Jiang Ning's angry questioning, Lu Junyan frowned, his handsome face as cold as an ice sculpture.
Seeing Lu Junyan's unusual silence, Jiang Ning felt somewhat discouraged.
She pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Lu Junyan.
At this moment, Xiao Zhang knocked on the door and came in, quietly placing a cup of coffee at a suitable temperature in front of Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan respectively.
Then they left without a sound.
Jiang Ning felt that Xiao Zhang had arrived at the perfect time; she was extremely thirsty.
She sighed inwardly as she sipped her coffee.
Today, she took her divorce papers to work, but before she even arrived at the company, she was surrounded by a large group of people as soon as she reached the ground floor of the Zhongqing Building.
Some of those people were holding gun-style microphones, some were carrying professional cameras, and others were holding up their cell phones.
More than being frightened, Jiang Ning found it hard to understand.
She doesn't think she's popular enough to warrant being besieged by a large number of reporters and marketing accounts.
Later, through the questions asked by those people, Jiang Ning gradually figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
