Having finally been given a second chance by God, Su Xueli didn't want to just die like that. She wanted to live a life that would make her proud, both for herself and for Wei Mingshen!
She spoke kindly to Wei Mingshen while slowly backing away, preparing to run away and scream if he pounced on her.
In the countryside, the courtyards are all next to each other, and the neighbors can hear when a chicken lays an egg. If she calls, the chicken will definitely come running over.
Suddenly, Wei Mingshen looked up at her, and she was so frightened that she took a step back, bent down and grabbed the door latch behind the door, holding it up with both hands.
Wei Mingshen was taken aback, and his brows furrowed.
Then he laughed heartily, laughing so hard he almost fell over.
Su Xueli was stunned by his laughter, but she didn't let her guard down and kept holding the door latch with both hands while looking at him.
Wei Mingshen finally finished laughing. His expression turned serious, and he looked at her with deep eyes, saying, "Xueli, I agree."
Su Xueli exclaimed in surprise, "Uh!" Why did he suddenly agree?
Wei Mingshen looked at the furnishings in the room and said, "Tomorrow I'll find someone to help you move your furniture to your rented apartment."
Su Xueli was a little stunned, and asked in a low voice, "Are you telling the truth?"
Wei Mingshen nodded: "It's the truth. Since you don't like me, forcing you will only make you hate me more. I'd better just end it now."
Su Xueli lowered the door latch, looked at him, and said softly, "Then thank you."
A flicker of pain flashed in Wei Mingshen's eyes as he asked in a low voice, "Xueli, are you in such a hurry to leave me?"
Su Xueli felt a mix of emotions, but she still steeled herself and said, "Yes."
Wei Mingshen felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart, but he didn't show it. Instead, he said calmly, "I'm sorry you've suffered these past few days. You're finally free."
Su Xueli bit her lip tightly, remained silent, and placed the door latch behind the door.
He glanced at the bolt and asked mockingly, "You think you can beat me with a stick?"
Su Xueli shrugged and said, "At least you could make a few gestures to give me a chance to escape."
Wei Mingshen laughed, and then said, "You're overthinking it. I wouldn't lay a hand on a woman. Besides, you're my wife, so for now, right?"
Su Xueli fell silent; he truly did not hit women.
Wei Mingshen asked politely, "When do you think we should go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete the formalities?"
Su Xueli asked, "Is this afternoon okay?"
Wei Mingshen said, "Okay."
He then reminded her, "Divorce is still quite complicated. Even if we both agree, they still have to go through mediation procedures..."
“We won’t accept mediation,” Su Xueli said.
Wei Mingshen said in a low voice, "This is procedure, they have to follow it."
"Money makes the world go round," Su Xueli said bluntly.
Wei Mingshen raised his eyebrows and said, "Alright then, you can pay up and let the devil do the work."
Su Xueli said, "Then it's settled. We'll get a divorce this afternoon and move out tomorrow."
Wei Mingshen said, "It's a deal."
Su Xueli glanced at her watch and said, "It's getting late. Why don't we go to town now and have a meal there? After we eat, we can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to queue up."
Wei Mingshen looked at her and asked, "Are you in such a hurry?"
Su Xueli sighed and said, "I don't know how to face your parents later. They... are very good to me, and I can't bear to see them sad."
She was telling the truth.
In this life, her in-laws treated her even better, and her feelings for them deepened.
Wei Mingshen comforted her instead, "It's okay, don't let them know anything for now. After we get divorced, I'll tell them after you move out, so you don't have to face them."
