Chapter 258: Divorce
Xu's father and mother looked at their daughter, who was pregnant but so thin that she was just a bag of bones, with distressed faces, and spat at Duke Xingguo fiercely.
"Your Xingguo Mansion is a man-eating den of demons!"
“Who wants to come back?”
Xu Chunxue remained motionless, still holding Ling Qi's hair with one hand and holding the hairpin against his neck with the other.
Her expression was indifferent as she looked at Duke Xingguo calmly, "Words are not enough. I will only let him go if he writes a letter of divorce first."
Duke Xingguo's heart sank, and a hint of anger flashed across his brows. Oh, Xu Chunxue was afraid that the Duke Xingguo Mansion would force her to stay. "You don't have to be so self-righteous. Do you really think you are the moon in the sky?"
If she were the daughter of the prime minister, the Duke of Xingguo would naturally be reluctant to let her go.
But she was just a country girl.
They, the Duke of Xingguo, don’t care about it!
Xu Chunxue held the golden hairpin in her hand and ignored the Duke of Xingguo's ridicule. Her eyes remained surprisingly calm as she only repeated those three words, "Letter of Divorce."
Duke Xingguo's brows suddenly darkened. This Xu Chunxue actually took him seriously.
He waved his hand and immediately asked someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone. He spread the paper on the stone table in the yard, wrote the letter of divorce in a very eloquent manner, and ordered someone to grab Ling Qi's hand and press the fingerprint.
Ling Qi's pupils trembled violently, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
A tear fell from the corner of his eye and he stared at Xu Chunxue in a daze.
Her current heartless appearance made him unable to find even a trace of her former self. "Chunxue, do you really not want me anymore?"
Xu Chunxue watched his mother put away the letter of release before letting go of his hand.
Ling Qi stumbled and immediately rushed over like a madman, trying to snatch back the divorce letter and tear it into pieces.
But before he could touch Xu's mother, he was kicked to the ground by Xu's father.
Xu's father's face was filled with disgust, and he wanted to pick up a knife and kill this beast. "How dare you act like a spoiled child here?"
"If it weren't for you, my daughter would have almost lost her life!"
"You are all hypocrites, full of evil intentions but pretending to be good. I must have been blind to marry my daughter to you!"
He was so stupid as a pig and a dog that he would believe what others said about the romantic people in wealthy families.
This big and noble compound is clearly a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones behind.
Haruyuki could clearly kill even a wolf before.
Now he is so thin that he looks like he could be blown away by the wind.
Mother Xu hugged Xu Chunxue, clearly not wanting to cry, for fear that people would look down on Chunxue and think that they were reluctant to give up the immense wealth of the Duke of Xingguo's Mansion.
But as a mother, how could she remain indifferent and not feel any pain when she saw her child being tortured like this?
Mother Xu finally shed a few tears and hugged her daughter with a choked voice, "My dear Ah Xue, you have suffered so much, I will definitely make it up to you!"
I must make it up to her!
Xu Chunxue nodded with red eyes. For such a long time, she had been trying hard not to shed tears.
But when she heard her mother and father's comfort, her nose suddenly felt sore, and her heart was filled with a sour feeling. She felt very wronged for no reason.
"Dad, Mom! I'm such an unfilial daughter that you still have to worry about me!"
Hearing that their daughter had suffered such a great injustice but still took the blame on herself at the first opportunity, Xu's father and mother were even more heartbroken.
The two of them supported Xu Chunxue on both sides as they left the place where she was trapped, feeling more and more distressed.
"Haruyuki, let's be fine."
"Dad and Mom are in business now to give you a stable backing. We don't want you to be looked down upon. Don't say such stupid things in the future."
Xu Chunxue's heart trembled again, and she felt even more sad.
"Mom and Dad, from now on, this child will have my surname Xu."
This is her child. From the moment she received the divorce papers, she no longer has any relationship with the Ling family.
Xu's father and mother were stunned at first, then nodded in surprise, "Okay! It's all up to you!"
"As long as you are well, our family is well, and we live a good life, that's better than anything else!"
The moonlight stretched the shadows of the three people very long.
Ling Qi stared blankly at the departing figures of Xu Chunxue and the other two, and wanted to catch up with them, but the Duke of Xingguo had people block his way.
Duke Xingguo's face turned pale as he glared at the unfilial son. "It's already this late, and you're still thinking of catching up? Are you really going to destroy our entire Duke Xingguo Mansion?"
The wife of Duke Xingguo showed some disgust on her face, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes.
"Qi'er, you've caused so much trouble, and now you won't let me go. Don't you think our entire Duke's Mansion is embarrassing enough?"
Her son was previously accused of being a jinx.
She was accused of being an incompetent fool who couldn't even raise a child properly, and she almost brought disaster to the entire Ling family.
But now it seems that Ling Qi, the son that Duke Xingguo is most satisfied with and loves the most, is no less capable than her Ling Ran.
Dung beetles and stinking toilets, don't look down on each other.
Ling Qi's brows were bloodshot, and he suddenly turned his head and glared at Su Tan angrily, "Why do you want to interfere in our Ling family's affairs?!"
It's all her fault for lying!
If she hadn't said that she wasn't being controlled, Chunxue wouldn't have been so willful and insisted on divorcing him!
Su Tan was both amused and annoyed, looking at him with amusement, "Blame me?"
"Is it me who insisted on letting Prince Ling humiliate Miss Xu and tie her up like an animal? Is it me who insisted on letting you, when all the evidence pointed to Yanran as the vengeful ghost, still have a ferocious face and distort the truth, saying that the vengeful ghost was actually someone else?"
Ling Qi's face turned pale and he was speechless for a moment.
"Prince Ling, you think I'm meddling in your affairs, but you never reflect on yourself."
She glanced coldly at the people in the Xingguo Mansion and said, "If I don't intervene in this matter, Miss Xu will be killed by the vengeful ghost and Prince Ling."
After saying this, the people in the Xingguo Mansion remained indifferent.
Su Tan had expected this. After all, one wouldn't feel the pain unless the knife stabbed oneself.
Why would they care about Xu Chunxue's life or death?
"Of course, with Miss Xu's fate, she suffered such an unfair thing. The entire Duke's Mansion should be buried with her. The scene of blood flowing like a river would be truly spectacular."
Su Tan's eyes were indifferent. "The entire Duke's Mansion, from top to bottom, even a dog, will not escape the fate of being buried with Miss Xu."
"Ling Ran and Jiang Rou are precedents. If anyone is not afraid of death and thinks that after the divorce, they can bully the Xu family and Miss Xu without restraint, they can give it a try. I believe that the former prince and his wife are waiting for you on the road to the underworld~"
Su Tan said this nonchalantly.
There's even a sense of watching a good show.
She looked at Duke Xingguo with a playful, ambiguous look, "If Duke Xingguo misses his son, he can be the first to try it."
Duke Xingguo was extremely angry, but he dared to look at Xu Chunxue coldly. However, when he really met Su Tan, who was good at fortune-telling and proficient in the mysterious arts, he lost his temper.
The other party is so powerful. If he offends her, she can cast a spell to destroy his family.
Duke Xingguo glanced at Ling Qi with a warning, then smiled apologetically at Su Tan and said, "My son is ignorant. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Don't worry, I'm just angry at Chunxue for being so stubborn and insisting on a divorce. But since she and Qi'er have parted ways, I naturally won't make things difficult for her."
Su Tan's expression remained calm.
She smiled and said, "Why should I be worried?"
"The Duke is very magnanimous. He should be relieved that the lives of others have been saved."
She smiled as she spoke, "They say Miss Xu has an unparalleled destiny. The better she is, the better the people she knows will be. And vice versa..."
Duke Xingguo's brows twitched.
So he could not retaliate against the Xu family because they humiliated the Xingguo Mansion.
We even have to protect their safety at all times!
Duke Xingguo had never felt so aggrieved in his life. He suddenly glared at Ling Qi fiercely and kicked him, "This is all your fault!"
She smiled with her eyes and eyebrows curved.
"What a great show~"
