Chapter 30 You Promised Me
"When did I..."
Pei Jiuyan started to speak subconsciously, but halfway through his sentence, he remembered that he had indeed said those words.
At that time, the Pei family was not as large as it is today. His father's investment failed, and the Pei family owed a lot of debt. Every day, many people would block the company to collect debts. He did not want Yun Zhaozhao to see this scene. He hoped that in Yun Zhaozhao's heart, he was omnipotent and that bright and clean young man.
Only someone like Pei Jiuyan is qualified to be with the little princess of the Beijing circle.
So he told Yun Zhaozhao not to go to the company to look for him.
It turns out that Yun Zhaozhao had remembered all these years.
Over the years, he was no longer the Pei Jiuyan who could be humiliated. He was now full of vigor and everyone had to respectfully call him Ninth Master. His business empire was expanding more and more, but Yun Zhaozhao had never come to the company even once.
He tried many methods, but Yun Zhaozhao wouldn't come. He thought Yun Zhaozhao was childish and not interested in his affairs.
So that's why!
In an instant, Pei Jiuyan's face turned pale. He had countless things he wanted to explain to Yun Zhaozhao, but he couldn't bring himself to speak.
“Pei Jiuyan, I recorded that whole thing. Logically speaking, it can be used as evidence of your infidelity. If we go through legal proceedings, the courts will definitely be on my side more. If I’m ruthless enough, it’s not impossible for me to make you leave with nothing.”
"However, I'm a generous person, so I'll just take half."
"Give me half of your assets, and I'll get out of here and make room for someone else."
Pei Jiuyan's eyelids trembled, and she stared fiercely at Yun Zhaozhao: "Don't even think about it."
There's no way he'll let go; he'll never be able to.
“Pei Jiuyan, don’t go too far. From eighteen to twenty-five, seven years, it’s not unreasonable to ask for half of your wealth.”
She gave him the best years of her life, and he wouldn't even part with half of her fortune. He's so stingy!
Pei Jiuyan's fingers tightened. "Baby, don't get a divorce. Everything I have is yours."
"don't want."
Without the slightest hesitation, Yun Zhaozhao said, "I will have my lawyer prepare the terms for you."
"Let's see which lawyer dares to take this case!"
Pei Jiuyan looked somewhat fierce: "Yun Zhaozhao, divorce? Don't even think about it."
The two were in the lobby, surrounded by people coming and going, and they didn't muffle their voices, so many people heard them.
Many people wanted to gossip, but they didn't dare because of Pei Jiuyan's reputation.
Yun Zhaozhao stared at Pei Jiuyan for a while, then suddenly said, "Pei Jiuyan, the year I turned 20, you went to Wenshu's hometown with her and couldn't make it back. You said you owed me a wish, and that you would grant me whatever I wanted. Do you remember?"
Pei Jiuyan's lips moved slightly; of course he remembered.
That year, he didn't actually accompany Wenshu to her hometown. Instead, he went to do something very dangerous. He didn't want Yun Zhaozhao to worry, so he never told her.
He thought he could make it back on Yun Zhaozhao's birthday, but he was seriously injured and the day was almost over when he woke up. He had no choice but to call Yun Zhaozhao from the hospital and tell her that he and the clerk had not finished their business and could not make it back. He also promised to grant her a wish and that he would grant her whatever she wanted in the future.
Afterwards, he brought back a blue diamond that he had painstakingly mined, which was also the best gem in that private mine, and gave it to Yun Zhaozhao.
Yun Zhaozhao didn't mention that wish, so he naturally forgot about it.
When Yun Zhaozhao suddenly brought it up today, he suddenly remembered and understood what she meant. Before she could speak, he covered her mouth with his hand, his palm trembling slightly.
"Baby, I'll do anything else, I'll even take your life, but... no."
He couldn't even utter the word "divorce".
He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way. Their relationship had just improved yesterday, and Yun Zhaozhao had even taken the initiative to come to him today. His anger over those photos had dissipated, yet this had happened again.
"What happened today was my fault. I should have sent your photo to every department so they could recognize their wives."
"This will never happen again, believe me."
Pei Jiuyan spoke quickly and rapidly, but Yun Zhaozhao no longer believed a single word he said.
She slowly pushed Pei Jiuyan's hand away, turned around and left.
Zhou Xiao watched for a while, and seeing Yun Zhaozhao leave, she quickly followed. Suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly said to Pei Jiuyan:
"Um, Zhao Zhao and I are going to spend two days in S City tomorrow."
"Going to do what?"
Pei Jiuyan frowned and asked.
Zhou Xiao rolled her eyes inwardly, utterly speechless at Pei Jiuyan's controlling nature, but remembering the important matter, she still smiled and said:
“Isn’t there a comic convention over there? I’ll have her come with me to check it out.” Seeing Pei Jiuyan’s face growing increasingly grim, she quickly added, “And to help her clear her head; I’ve had too many upsetting things going on lately.”
These words stirred something in Pei Jiuyan's heart. The little princess had indeed been wronged today, and given Yun Zhaozhao's temper, she would probably make a fuss for a long time.
He wasn't afraid of her making a scene, but he was afraid of her bringing up divorce.
She is no longer afraid of his threats, and she is always so resolute when she mentions divorce.
Thinking of this, he nodded: "Take good care of her."
"Yes, don't worry."
Seeing that Yun Zhaozhao had already left, Zhou Xiao quickly chased after her, not forgetting to tease Pei Jiuyan before leaving: "Hey, you should clean things up properly, lest other young mistresses of Pei appear later."
As soon as she finished speaking, she ran away as fast as the wind; she didn't have the courage to face Pei Jiuyan's anger.
Pei Jiuyan was indeed quite stung by her words. After a while, he turned around and went upstairs.
Ten minutes later, all departments received a photo of Yun Zhaozhao, which Pei Jiuyan personally posted in the group. Not only was there a photo of Yun Zhaozhao, but also her preferences, such as what snacks she liked and what she liked to do. The group chat was filled with "Received".
Yun Zhaozhao was unaware of and didn't care about what Pei Jiuyan had done. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Zhou Xiao say that she had already told Pei Jiuyan about going to S City.
She was so disgusted that she almost forgot about the important matter.
"I'll go there today."
Yun Zhaozhao decided to go early to avoid having to see that bastard Pei Jiuyan again that night.
There's one more thing to do before leaving.
Yun Zhaozhao found a divorce agreement template online, glanced at it and found no problems, so she printed it out, signed it, and then arranged for a courier to deliver it to Pei Jiuyan on the third day.
She deliberately chose to deliver it on the afternoon of her surgery, just so Pei Jiuyan wouldn't go crazy looking for her.
Zhou Xiao drove Yun Zhaozhao to S City, still looking worried.
"Honey, why don't I stay and keep you company?"
"I'm not incapable of taking care of myself. I went to Norway by myself. You should go back now."
Yun Zhaozhao chased the people away and lay down on the hotel bed alone, subconsciously touching her stomach.
Everything will be over the day after tomorrow!
