I thought that my son's willingness to get married meant that he had let go of the past and started a new life. I never expected that, after all the twists and turns, my son would still be trapped in the past.
Seeing her son like this, Madam Shao was truly heartbroken. She completely abandoned the idea of taking a concubine for her son. He wouldn't even touch the wife he chose for himself, let alone a concubine she had selected for him.
…
After regaining consciousness, Liu Menggui looked at Shao Qing'an in front of her and said, "Young Marquis, let's get a divorce."
Perhaps she had realized long ago that she liked him, but at that time she felt that there was a possibility between them. However, after realizing this clearly, Liu Menggui could no longer deceive herself.
If she didn't love him, perhaps he could continue living with her, because she was the best choice.
But she had fallen in love with him. She couldn't bear the thought that her husband, who treated her so well, held no place in his heart; she felt no different from a clown.
It's not a big deal if you like someone and they treat you coldly. Because after experiencing coldness a lot, you'll realize that you don't like them that much after all, and you'll think that person doesn't feel the same way about you.
But Shao Qing'an was different; he was just too good to her. She couldn't imagine how painful it would be to fall for him while knowing full well that he didn't like her.
Shao Qing'an was stunned by what she said. After a moment of silence, he thought about what had happened and said softly, "It was my fault for not protecting you. Okay, I will give you the divorce papers in a few days after I have them notarized."
Liu Menggui wanted to say that it wasn't because of this issue, but suddenly felt there was nothing to explain. Anyway, as long as he was willing to divorce, that was fine. So, he finally replied, "Okay. I'll go back to the Liu residence tomorrow and wait for the young marquis to send it over."
"Okay." Shao Qing'an folded the blanket for the person, told them to get some rest, and then left.
Actually, he needed a few days, not to write the divorce papers, but to calm himself down and organize the things he had prepared for her.
She had been preparing for this ever since the agreement was made, originally intending to provide her with security after the divorce, or to give her a dowry after the divorce.
Shao Qing'an had prepared some assets and money from the beginning, which were to be given to her after the divorce.
He didn't actually know what the Liu family's attitude would be, but just in case, it would be good for her to have a place to live in the future.
…
The next day, Liu Menggui really went back to the Liu residence. Shao Qing'an had someone take inventory of the belongings, and he locked himself in his study for two days.
On the fourth day, I finally picked up a pen and wrote a few words when the door was suddenly pushed open.
Madam Shao, who had originally gone out to worship Buddha, returned early. The events of that day had been a blow to her. She had planned to go to worship Buddha for a while to calm her emotions and pray for a better future for her son.
Unexpectedly, on her second day at the temple, she heard that her son wanted a divorce. So she rushed back home.
"Mother, why are you back so soon?"
Madam Shao's gaze fell on the words "divorce agreement." She knew exactly what her son had been doing these past few days, and she could clearly feel the emotions he was radiating at this moment.
She had initially thought that her son was unwilling to touch his legal wife because he couldn't let go of someone else, but now it seemed different.
