Chapter 98 Divorce
Ji Yanxing touched his chin with the tip of his tongue, his eyes cold, "You didn't even check, and you suspected it was me?"
"So, is it you?"
Ji Yanxing smiled and said, "It's me."
Yu Nian was so angry that he wanted to hit him again, but Ji Yanxing said calmly: "I don't think there is anything wrong with me helping netizens to reveal the truth."
"Should I thank you on behalf of the netizens who don't know the truth?"
Ji Yanxing did not argue with her, and directly stated his intentions: "I did it, I didn't mean to hide it from you, including the cancellation of the cooperation between Lu's partners, it was all done by me, I think you should know the purpose of my doing this."
He reached out and grasped her wrist, pulling her onto his thigh. His bony fingers gently stroked her cheek, his tone gentle yet cold, "You weren't home these past two days, and I didn't sleep well, so I became more determined not to get a divorce."
Before, when he was in Australia or on a business trip, the quality of his sleep was not as good when he slept alone as when he slept with her. He had a high fever for the past two days, and she was not at home, so he hardly slept.
As soon as he closed his eyes, she would smile at him, act coquettishly towards him, hug his waist and look up at him. When he fell asleep, she would trace his outline with her soft fingertips. She liked his peach blossom eyes the most and had praised them for being beautiful more than once. She liked them very much.
Every time she looked at him in the past, there would be soft expectation and smile in her eyes. She was gently held in his arms and couldn't help but kiss him actively...
Now, there was only mockery and indifference in her eyes when she looked at him. When he was sick, he thought of her cold eyes and for a moment he wanted to let her go, but he denied it in just a second. No matter whether she was gentle or indifferent, she was always by his side.
She was away for the past two days, and he felt the emptiness of her absence, so he couldn't let her go.
After he finished speaking, the office fell silent.
Yu Nian sat on him without struggling. She was silent and didn't know what she was thinking. Ji Yanxing raised his hand to pinch her ear, but she suddenly turned her head to avoid his hand. "Don't touch me. I hate you."
The suffocation that had finally subsided came back again, Ji Yanxing looked into her eyes quietly, suppressing the stabbing pain in his heart. Apart from the physiological pain, he actually didn't feel much because he was used to it.
After a while, he heard his own dull and hoarse voice: "Whether you like me or hate me, it means nothing to me if you are not by my side."
Yu Nian raised her head and met his deep and complex black eyes, "So, stay by my side, even if you hate me."
"Ji Yanxing, do you have to do things so drastically?" Yu Nian lowered his eyelids and asked in a calm voice.
"It is true that Lu Jiayi is having an affair outside and still wants to maintain his image as a husband. As for asking the partners to cancel the cooperation, the law of the jungle prevails in the business world, and this is not an isolated case. Madam Ji, I have been very restrained." Ji Yanxing really felt that he was very lenient. "I will not touch the Yu family and I am reluctant to touch them, otherwise my parents will hate me. Your friends, Chen Xi, Su Miao, Lu Yuchen——"
"Pa!" Another slap hit him hard in the face, harder and louder than the previous one.
First, he slapped him because of the Lu family.
This time, when he heard him mention Lawrence Lu, he beat him again.
Ji Yanxing's face completely lost its good expression. He grabbed her wrist, pushed her onto the desk, and blocked her fiercely.
Yu Nian opened her eyes, his face was so gloomy that one could see the cold air coming out of it. He put her on the cold and hard table and forced her to endure it.
They hadn't been this close for a long time. After returning from Y City, he just kissed her forehead because he knew she was in a bad mood. He tried to go along with her. This time when he kissed her, he was irritated by her slap at first, but the moment he kissed her, it was just instinct.
Yu Nian tried to hit him and even kicked him, but he predicted her movements and held her with his legs. He held her hand with one hand and pinched her jaw with the other hand when she wanted to bite him, preventing her from exerting any strength.
Yu Nian's body couldn't help but tremble, and at this moment, she only felt the instinctive feeling of suffocation. The pure male hormone scent overwhelmed her sense of smell and filled her sensory world.
Ji Yanxing naturally sensed her resistance and paused, looking down at her dense eyelashes that kept trembling and her body that was a little stiff, as if she was in deep danger but didn't know how to save herself. She instinctively wanted to hug herself, as if this would give her a little more sense of security.
He loosened his grip and looked down at her.
Did she think he would hurt her?
Ji Yanxing closed his eyes, suppressed the pain in his chest, leaned over and picked her up, put her back on his legs, gently rubbed her neck, and said in a gentle and low voice: "Baby, I'm sorry."
Yu Nian did not struggle. She breathed in and out sharply, her eyes fixed on a certain direction. She was wondering what she should do and what she could do.
He was too strong and too selfish. He only considered his own feelings. Even if he didn't love her and she didn't want to be entangled with him anymore, he still wanted to tie her up.
As long as he wanted, she could only accompany him and be trapped in this marriage. In this marriage, she had no autonomy at all.
——If only I hadn’t married him.
Yu Nian had this thought again. With her personality, she rarely regretted her past decisions. However, facing his powerlessness and despair, she had to adopt the most passive way of resistance and regret.
Because of the lack of ability to act, one can only imagine struggling to escape in the mind.
She had made a huge compromise. He didn't want to divorce, so she said she would let him slowly adapt to life without her, but he didn't even give her the right to separate.
Yu Nian closed her eyes. She had lost all her energy after being tormented by him. She suppressed her emotions and asked one last time, "Can't we really separate?"
Ji Yanxing heard her soften his attitude and lowered his voice, coaxing her gently: "Niannian, as long as we don't divorce or separate, you can make other requests, and I will try my best to satisfy you."
After a moment of silence, Yu Nian said calmly, "Let the Lu family go."
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to look at her and asked with some surprise: "You agreed?"
Yu Nian pulled the corner of his mouth, "Can you give me any other choice?"
Ji Yanxing ignored the sarcasm in her words and asked, "Moving back tonight?"
"Yeah." Yu Nian got off him and walked out in high heels. "I'm going back to work. I'll talk to you about my conditions tonight."

Li Ming really didn't want to go into Mr. Ji's office today, but there was no other way. The Legal Department sent an important document that Mr. Ji had to sign immediately. He took the document and walked into the office carefully. He saw Ji Yanhang sitting in the office chair. Mr. Ji, who was always focused on his work, was not looking at the document or the computer, but staring out the window in a trance. The laptop screen was black, which meant that Mr. Ji had been in a trance for a while.
