Chapter 601 Signing the Divorce Certificate
When she saw the message Qi Xuan sent her, she initially thought he was going to apologize, but it turned out to be a threat.
This further solidified Xia Youxin's determination to get a divorce.
She didn't reply, but ignored Qi Xuan's message.
He hired a well-known lawyer in the industry to draft a divorce agreement.
According to the Marriage Law, if two people have not had marital relations during their marriage, they can file for divorce without separation.
Xia Youxin provided all the evidence and asked the lawyer to negotiate with Qi Xuan. If he didn't want to publicize the matter and make others think he was incompetent, and if he didn't want to be the subject of too much gossip, it would be best for him to sign the divorce papers.
The two remained in a cold war for a long time. Even when the Qi family eventually withdrew their investment from the Xia family, it still couldn't dispel his determination to divorce.
Qi Xuan couldn't persuade her otherwise, and in the end, he had no choice but to sign the divorce papers.
Xia Youxin did not show up until the formalities were completed.
Before they met again, the day Xia Youxin asked him for a divorce was the last time the two of them saw each other.
After the divorce, he was depressed for a while.
I don't know if I've figured things out or if I'm just trying to numb myself in various ways.
From then on, he resumed his life of indulgence in wine and women, as if nothing had changed, and that marriage in name only was probably like a dream.

Gu Panzi was quite shocked by the stories Qi Xuan told her. She hadn't expected Xia Youxin to have suffered so much injustice in that marriage, and she felt very sorry for her.
No one could possibly survive a marriage like that, right?
"Did you ever regret it later? Did you ever regret never being good to her?"
Qi Xuan smiled bitterly, feeling that he had been a fool back then.
He clearly likes her a lot, but he pretends not to care, and he makes her sad and upset just to save face.
"Of course I regretted it, but what good did it do? It was too late anyway."
"I don't think it's too late. Although Xiaxia is still cold and indifferent to you on the surface, I can feel that she actually cares about you quite a bit."
Gu Panzi genuinely felt that way.
Qi Xuan wasn't sure what Xia Youxin was really thinking either. "Who knows? Getting her to forgive me probably won't be that easy!"
I'm telling you all this today because I want to apologize.
If my actions back then caused you to misunderstand, I can make it up to you in any way I can.
When I saw you, I felt you looked a lot like Xiaxia from my school days, so I inexplicably wanted to get closer to you.
But I know that I could never love anyone else in my life but her.
Although Gu Panzi felt a little sad, she hadn't invested any real feelings in the relationship, so letting go wouldn't be too difficult.
And she genuinely hoped that Xiaxia could be happy.
Although she may not find happiness in this life, she hopes that every friend around her can be happy.
Seeing them happy makes her happy too.
"Actually, you don't need to apologize to me. I know you've never liked me, so I've never been presumptuous. In my heart, you're just a playboy. How could I dare to have any wishful thinking about someone like you?"
