Chapter 23 Changed
Yu Nian followed He Bai into the court. The judge in charge of mediating this case was a middle-aged female judge. Bai Jing was already sitting in the conference room, dressed elegantly. When she saw He Bai coming, she sneered, "Where is Wang Bing? He didn't dare to come himself, so he hired two people to come."
The judge looked at He Bai and said, "Lawyer He, the parties involved in cases involving personal relationships must be present in person. Where is Wang Bingren?"
He Bai pulled out a chair and sat down, saying calmly: "He will be here soon." Yu Nian pulled out a chair and sat down next to him, took out his computer, and opened the document to record.
Ten minutes later, Wang Bing arrived late.
To everyone's surprise, Bai Jing, who was originally unwilling to give in, agreed to divorce and asked for two-thirds of Wang Bing's property. He Bai objected, and he naturally wanted to fight for the greatest benefit for his client. Wang Bing stopped him and said, "No, give it to her."
Bai Jing leaned back in her chair, picked up the divorce agreement with her well-maintained fingers, and then threw it on the table. She looked at Wang Bing with a smile, "Wang Bing, I remember 20 years ago, when we got married, we had nothing, and you held my hand and said that we would have everything in the future. I started everything with you from scratch, and now you have everything, and the first thing you want to do is replace me."
Wang Bing has an ordinary appearance, somewhat honest. His eyes flickered slightly, "Xiao Jing, I am sorry for you. You are very good, but I don't love you anymore. The extra money is my compensation to you. Let's part ways in peace, okay?"
"Okay, if there's no love, there's no money, but I can't give it up," Bai Jing wiped away her tears, picked up the pen, signed the divorce agreement, and threw it across the table, "Here you go."
She threw several pieces of paper at her with force. The sharp papers cut the back of Yu Nian's hand, and blood instantly oozed out. She frowned, sorted out the documents and handed them to Wang Bing.
Wang Bing took the document and signed it. "Sorry, I have a meeting to attend. You can discuss the rest with my lawyer."
After saying that, he left the meeting room first without even looking at Bai Jing.
After he left, Bai Jing could no longer hold on and started crying on the table.
Both parties signed, and the rest of the matters were left to the lawyers of both parties to discuss. As Yu Nian was He Bai's assistant, she was not needed for the time being. She sat on the chair, quietly watching Bai Jing, whose shoulders were shaking from crying.
A strange topic flashed in my mind——
"Which is more painful, going from being in love to becoming strangers or never being loved at all?"
It should be more painful after falling in love.
How can you lose something if you have never had it?
The pain brought by the sweet memories after getting it is the most deadly.
Yu Nian's eyes flickered slightly, his heart sank heavily, and a stuffy and sour feeling came from his chest.
The air conditioning in the conference room was probably too low and she felt a little cold.
Yu Nian looked at Bai Jing opposite him.
Twenty years of memories…the man who had become a part of her chose to leave her.
I don’t know how long it will take to forget it, maybe I will never forget it in this lifetime.
fine.
Fortunately, Ji Yanxing made things clear before she got too deeply involved.
She only had a few good memories with him, and they could easily fade away.
After comforting herself, she took a deep breath and continued to organize the meeting minutes.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Nian got off work on time.
On the way home, she thought of the call from Li Ming. Ji Yanxing was going to the United States on a business trip for three months. This way, she would have three months of independence and plenty of time and space to adjust her mentality.
When she got home, Aunt Liu had already prepared dinner. Yu Nian threw her bag on the sofa and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
She turned on the faucet and a column of water flowed out. She put her hand under the faucet.
The cold water hit her palms. She looked up at the woman in the mirror. There was an indescribable melancholy between her fair and soft brows. She raised her hands, gently patted her face, and pulled her lips in front of the mirror.
Ugly.
It's really ugly.
For the first time, Yu Nian intuitively felt the meaning of the four words "forced smile".
The water flowed out of the faucet, swirled around the sink, and swirled into the sewer.
Yu Nian exhaled softly, without forcing herself, and walked out without any expression.
The moment she opened the door, she didn't pay attention and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, her head hit a hard chest. A familiar scent of agarwood came, like the smoky smell of a temple. Yu Nian paused and immediately took a half step back to distance herself from him.
"Sorry, I didn't see it." Yu Nian said.
Ji Yanxing glanced at her indifferently, walked straight past her, turned on the faucet to wash his hands.
Yu Nian looked up at the ceiling, then walked out of the bathroom.
Aunt Liu is a good cook, and the dishes she makes have the legendary "motherly feeling". Today's dish includes her favorite spare ribs. Yu Nian picked up a piece and put it in the bowl, eating slowly.
Ji Yanxing pulled a chair and sat down opposite her. Noticing that the atmosphere was not right, Aunt Liu quietly left the restaurant.
Yu Nian chewed the rice slowly, maybe because she usually ate alone or usually chatted with others when eating. The saying "Don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping" did not apply to her at all. The silence at the table made her appetite, which was originally quite good, not so good.
It seems I have to avoid eating at the same time as him from now on.
Yu Nian went to pick up the ribs again.
Ji Yanxing also stretched out his chopsticks.
The next moment.
Two pairs of chopsticks picked up the same spareribs at the same time.
Yu Nian paused.
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to look at her.
She didn't look up.
The next moment, he moved the chopsticks away and replaced them with a piece of pork ribs.
Ji Yanxing stared at the top of her head for a few seconds, then picked up the piece of pork ribs and put it into the bowl.
After finishing the meal without any communication, Yu Nian did not return to the bedroom, but went to the study with her bag.
She didn't turn on the lights, the light was dim, and she leaned back in her chair, feeling physically and mentally exhausted. Thinking of the scene at the dinner table just now, she got a headache again.
It seemed to be more difficult than she had imagined.
She overestimated herself. She couldn't immediately treat him as a superficial couple.
You said you were going on a business trip, why are you still at home?
Go away! Leave her alone to calm down.
'Buzz'
The phone suddenly vibrates.
Yu Nian picked up the phone and took a look. It was Chen Xi’s call, so she answered it.
"What's wrong, Nian Nian? You look so bad." The light from the phone screen illuminated her slightly tired face. Chen Xi could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her and spoke in a nervous tone.
"It's okay." Yu Nian sat up straight. "I'm tired from work."
Chen Xi stared at her: "Are you really okay?"
"What can I do?" He changed the subject. "Did you read the text message I sent you this afternoon?"
"I saw it, I didn't expect Meng Ziyun's background to be so strong." Chen Xi snorted coldly, "I've hit a wall this time. She's actually related to Lu Yan. Half of the entertainment industry belongs to the Lu family. I'd better admit defeat."
