Chapter 504: Self-humiliation
After listening to Lin Xiaoxia, Lu Jingshen smiled and agreed. Without saying a few words, he arrived at the place because they were too close.
After getting out of the car, Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen waited on the bench in the hall for them to go through the divorce procedures.
Tian Ping, who came with Zhang Tingting, did not go in either. He sat next to them and wanted to talk, but Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen kept chatting and did not let him interrupt. They were just waiting for Lu Jingxue and Zhang Tingting to come out with the divorce certificate before talking about other things.
Tian Ping was a little confused because he was indeed worried that Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen had a mine. If that was true, then there was really no need for him to offend these two people.
But he wanted to talk to her and ask what was going on, but she ignored him. So he felt very anxious and panicked, and he had not paid any attention to Zhang Tingting anymore.
Within two minutes, Lu Jingxue and Zhang Tingting came out with their divorce certificates.
Because they were both from the same village, one used to work in the supply and marketing cooperative and the other in the hospital, so they knew the people in the police station a little. In addition, everyone in the village knew about their divorce, so there was no need to ask questions. The staff quickly issued them a certificate and that was it.
Lu Jingxue looked at Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen waving their divorce certificates and smiled. After all these years, he seemed to be not as happy as he was today when he got his divorce certificate after getting his first salary.
Zhang Tingting came to Tian Ping with the divorce certificate and said, "Dear, we can be together openly now."
Lin Xiaoxia felt that the time had come, and she said to Tian Ping, "Weren't you curious about our jade mine before? Let my husband tell you about it. After all, we are in the same business."
Lu Jingshen said to Tian Ping, "Mr. Tian, if you deal in jade in the north, you should be familiar with the jade mines in Qingyan County, right?"
As Tian Ping listened to Lu Jingshen's words and his expression, he felt more and more that this couple was extraordinary.
He said politely, "Yes, I am familiar with it. I am especially familiar with Qingyan County."
Zhang Tingting felt something was wrong. She didn't want Tian Ping to continue talking to Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen. She pulled Tian Ping aside and said, "Let's go. These people are talking too much nonsense. There's no need to listen. I have nothing to do with them anymore."
Tian Ping's heart had long been shaken, and he would not let Zhang Tingting affect his business path.
So he brushed Zhang Tingting's hand away and asked Lu Jingshen again, "Do you really have a mine in Qingyan County?"
Lu Jingshen said to Tian Ping, "You are an expert in this matter. If I lied to you, would you still be able to find out? Do I need to? Mr. Tian should know Zhou Yunchao, right? He is my partner."
"What? Zhou Yunchao? That mine is yours?" Tian Ping was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth when he heard this. He knew about the jade mines in Qingyan County. Zhou Yunchao was the leader in the mineral business in Qingyan County. He had also heard some stories about Zhou Yunchao. When Zhou Yunchao wanted to do the mineral business, no one supported him and he had no money. It was his best friend who supported him and gave him the initial capital, so he also gave half of the shares to his friend. The friend's surname was Lu, doesn't this make sense?
Lu Jingshen nodded: "I do have shares in that mine, but I don't know much about these businesses. My friends are in charge, so I don't go there often."
Tian Ping quickly extended his hand to shake hands with Lu Jingshen: "Mr. Lu, I'm really blind. I'm really sorry. Mr. Lu, there may be some misunderstandings between us."
Lu Jingshen didn't shake hands with Tian Ping. Instead, he said, "Mr. Tian, you've seen the current relationship between Zhang Tingting and our family. You're already together, so I don't think there's any need for us to talk about this anymore. I wish you good luck."
How could Tian Ping not understand what Lu Jingshen said? He quickly said to Lu Jingshen, "Mr. Lu, I know that what I did with Zhang Tingting was not honest, but I was also deceived by Zhang Tingting at the beginning. When she met me, she said she was single."
Lu Jingshen asked again: "So what? After you knew it, you still stayed with her. I won't say more. We are still busy. I guess we won't meet again in the future."
After saying that, Lu Jingshen pulled Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingxue towards the car.
Tian Ping followed them for a few steps and said, "Mr. Lu, if Zhang Tingting and I cut off all ties now, could you give me a chance to treat you to a meal?"
Lu Jingshen said without turning his head: "I don't like to talk business in this way." Then he opened the car door and let Lin Xiaoxia get in.
Tian Ping came to the car and said to Lu Jingshen, "I understand what you mean, Mr. Lu. I think we may have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
Lu Jingshen didn't say anything, just got into the car and drove away. Sometimes silence is more powerful than words.
Tian Ping watched Lu Jingshen and his friends drive away and sighed deeply. What kind of a fuss was this? Even if she hadn't come today, it would have been fine. Even if she had come, it wouldn't have been fine if Zhang Tingting didn't show off. How did it come to this?
Zhang Tingting felt a mixture of fear and regret. It wasn't as if she didn't understand Tian Ping's words. Was her dream of becoming a wealthy wife about to be shattered? Why was she showing off today? Why had she come here today? She really wanted to slap herself in the face.
She is divorced now and her only hope is Tian Ping. You know, she is lucky to have met such a rich man like Tian Ping. If she loses him, she will never have the chance to find such a guarantee again.
So she was also scared, and pulled Tian Ping and said, "Tian Ping, I'm sorry, I really didn't know things would turn out like this. You know how good I am to you, you must not leave me."
Tian Ping sighed and said to Zhang Tingting, "Perhaps we're not destined to be together. I didn't expect this to happen, but most of my business is in Qingyan County, and I can't ignore Zhou Yunchao. If Zhou Yunchao says something negative about me in the industry, I might not be able to enter Qingyan County. I can't afford the risk, so let's just leave it at that."
Zhang Tingting grabbed Tian Ping's arm and pleaded, "Tian Ping, I was wrong. How about this? I don't want any official status anymore, and I won't tell anyone about our relationship. That way, they won't know."
Tian Ping said: "Although I am not a good person, I still have my own way in the business world. Business is my source of pride. I will not affect my business for a woman, so there is no possibility for us."
"Tian Ping, you said you would treat me well forever."
"When you got married, you also told your ex-husband that you would love him forever, right?"
"But, but I divorced for you. Now that I'm divorced, you can't just ignore me. If I hadn't divorced, I still had a way out. What should I do now?"
"Don't talk so grandly. You know why you got divorced. Even without me, do you think you can still live together?"
"Then if I don't divorce, I can drag it out anyway. I still have hope. The Lu family is so prosperous now. If I don't divorce, I will definitely live a better life than with you in the future."
