Jiang An reached out just before she closed the door and stuck his hand in the crack.
If Ye Xinning had moved any faster, he would have pinched her hand.
"Does Miss Jiang have any masochistic tendencies?" She looked at Jiang An with rising anger, her voice low and cold.
Jiang An smiled and withdrew her hand. She gently touched her belly and said to Ye Xinning.
"Ms. Ye, my baby is growing very well recently. The doctor said that he has a strong vitality."
Ye Xinning crossed her arms and glanced at her sideways, "So, why are you telling me all this?"
“Brother Shen Lin loves me. If he didn’t love me, how could he have a child with me, and how could he care about us so much? Why should Miss Ye cling to a marriage that isn’t hers?”
Ye Xinning felt that Jiang An was probably a woman with some problems.
"I remember telling you before, it's not that I don't want a divorce from Shen Lin. Instead of coming here to find me, you should try to persuade him to divorce me as soon as possible."
“You’re a lawyer. If you really want to divorce him, how can you not have a way?” Jiang An said, biting her lip.
Ye Xinning looked her up and down, then suddenly smiled.
Why don't you say these things to Shen Lin? Is it because you're afraid, or do you know that your words won't have any impact on him?
She didn't want to say anything, so she closed the door and refused to communicate with Jiang An.
She is a lawyer, that's true, but divorcing Shen Lin involves many things. She doesn't want to cause great losses to the Shen and Ye families because of herself, and she prefers to resolve it privately.
Business marriages inherently involve many conflicting interests.
Although her mother's way of speaking and acting was somewhat stubborn, she was right about one thing: she was the eldest daughter of the Ye family. Even if she didn't marry Shen Lin, she would marry someone else. A business marriage was a responsibility that she, as the eldest daughter of the Ye family, had to bear.
Now that her marriage with Shen Lin is no longer working, she has made the decision to divorce, but she still needs to consider many things that she has to consider.
...
The next day.
Ye Xinning went to the law firm.
As soon as I walked in, I heard my colleague say...
"Attorney Ye, someone is waiting for you in the conference room."
Ye Xinning wondered who would come looking for her so early.
"Okay, I understand. I'll put my things down and head over."
In the conference room, Ye Xinning pushed open the door and walked in. When she saw who was sitting inside, she was surprised.
"Dad, what brings you here?" She didn't expect it to be Shen Yu; she had thought it was a client who had a case with her.
"Sit down," Shen Yu said, gesturing for her to sit.
Ye Xinning instructed someone to make tea before speaking.
"Has Dad been waiting for a long time?"
"I just arrived a little while ago," Shen Yu asked her, her voice filled with concern. "How are you? Is your cold better?"
"I feel much better, thank you for your concern, Dad."
"Um."
Shen Yu nodded and took out an invitation from his side.
"This is an invitation to the chairman of the He Group's birthday celebration. You and A-Lin will represent the Shen Group."
Ye Xinning stared blankly at the invitation in her hand.
Shen Yu's words rang in her ears, "You are my Shen family's daughter-in-law, now and in the future. You are the only one who is qualified to stand by A-Lin's side."
Ye Xinning wasn't stupid. Shen Yu's sudden visit and his invitation for her to attend the banquet with Shen Lin were clearly meant to imply that this farce with Shen Lin should come to an end.
Shen Yu had other things to do, so he left after sitting for a short while.
Ye Xinning saw him off. Before he got into the car, Shen Yu said to her, "Ningning, it's time to go home. You are the wife of the president of Shen's Group and the young mistress of the Shen family. Staying in hotels all the time can easily arouse people's imaginations. As for the rest, don't worry, I can give you a satisfactory answer."
Ye Xinning stood there, watching Shen Yu's car drive away.
His brow furrowed, and his eyes held an unyielding sorrow.
Her mother disagreed with her divorce from Shen Lin, and Shen Yu was even more adamant in her refusal.
She was in a dilemma. If Shen Lin didn't agree, so be it. She couldn't get the household registration book, and she couldn't persuade any of the elders.
After all that, she still felt that the problem lay with Shen Lin.
If Shen Lin agrees to the divorce, even if his mother and Shen Yu disagree, there's nothing they can do about it.
But now, Shen Lin insists on not getting a divorce and chooses to continue the marriage with her in such an extremely humiliating way.
Ye Xinning looked up at the sky, which was gloomy and overcast, with not a trace of sunshine, just like her gloomy mood.
...
As Ye Xinning emerged from the law firm in the evening, the sight of a Lamborghini parked at the entrance made her pause in her tracks.
She paused for a few seconds, then ignored it and walked straight towards her car.
Wenzhu appeared behind her without her noticing.
"Madam, Mr. Shen wants you to come over and go to the banquet together."
Ye Xinning acted as if she hadn't heard, "I'll drive back myself. As for that banquet, let him go by himself."
"Mr. Shen said that if Madam is unwilling to get in the car, he would not mind telling the old man that Madam does not want to go."
Ye Xinning, "..."
She turned around angrily, opened the back door, and slammed it shut.
asparagus,"……"
Inside the car.
The documents were on Shen Lin's lap, and her displeasure did not attract his attention.
Ye Xinning rested her chin on her hand and looked at him, "Using your father to threaten me?"
What is a threat?
"..." Playing dead.
Ye Xinning turned his head to look out the car window speechlessly.
At the banquet, Ye Xinning and Shen Lin got out of the car one after the other.
On the way there, Shen Lin took her to the mall, where she changed into a strapless, light blue evening gown. She let her hair down, exuding a cool and elegant aura that dazzled everyone.
She walked behind Shen Lin, unwilling to walk with him.
Chi Zhao saw them enter from the hall and walked over to greet them.
"You're here." Chi Zhao raised an eyebrow at Ye Xinning. "It's been a long time. Xinning is getting more and more beautiful."
Chi Zhao was a year or two older than them, and his eyes were full of smiles when he spoke to them.
Ye Xinning pursed her lips slightly and smiled, "Thank you, Brother Chi Zhao, but being good-looking is useless. No matter how good the ones at home are, for men, the ones outside are the most tempting."
Chi Zhao, "..."
He glanced at Shen Lin's face, and sure enough, the man's gaze was deep and he seemed to be on the verge of anger.
"Hey, let's not talk about that. It's not appropriate for Xinning to keep staying in a hotel. When are you going to go back to the Shen family's house?"
Before Ye Xinning could answer the question, a low female voice sounded behind them.
“Brother Shen Lin.”
Ye Xinning turned around and saw Jiang An standing behind them, dressed in a loose-fitting dress. She looked very well-dressed with exquisite makeup.
Ye Xinning looked down at her. She was pregnant and still wearing high heels. She really wasn't worried about anything going wrong.
"Why are you here?" Shen Lin asked, his voice low and his emotions unreadable.
