Chapter 184 Death as Atonement
Before dinner, Xu Zhengnan received a phone call. He went outside to answer it, but he didn't know who called.
After answering the phone, he came in and told me and Aunt Yang that he had to go out for something and asked us to eat first.
"If you have anything to say, come after dinner!" Aunt Yang tried to persuade her to stay.
But Xu Zhengnan seemed to be in a hurry. He did not stay for dinner, but drove away as fast as he could. As soon as he left, light snow began to fall outside, hitting the glass on the balcony, forming tiny ice crystals.
Aunt Yang sighed, "It's almost the New Year, he's very busy."
I sat down to have dinner with Aunt Yang and deliberately mentioned Li Letong. I wondered if she and Xu Zhengnan had any contact later. Aunt Yang felt very sorry and praised Li Letong as a good girl. It was just that Xu Zhengnan did not know how to cherish her and rejected her several times. Now they have become ordinary friends.
My heart sank, and then I asked tentatively, "Then...Aunt Yang, have you heard of the name Jiang Xinyu?"
"Jiang Xinyu?" Aunt Yang was stunned for a moment and shook her head. "No, I haven't heard of this name. What's wrong?"
It's strange. If Jiang Xinyu is Xu Zhengnan's girlfriend abroad, he should have told Aunt Yang. He is not the kind of person who would hide things.
Could it be that they are not a couple, but are entangled in other things?
With a lot of questions in my mind, I was about to clean up the dishes after dinner. Aunt Yang stopped me and insisted that I go to rest first, while she started to clean up the dishes and the kitchen.
I just sat down on the sofa when my cell phone rang. It was a call from an unfamiliar number.
"It's me." After the call was connected, Shen Yixiao's hoarse voice came, and he seemed very tired.
I immediately wanted to hang up the phone. He knew I would recognize his number, so he called me from an unfamiliar number.
I'm not surprised that he found out my address and now knows my number.
"Don't hang up." He anticipated my move and said hastily, "I agree to a divorce."
Hearing this, I stopped hanging up the phone. Is Shen Yixiao serious, or is he lying to me?
I didn't quite believe it. "Really?"
“Well, let’s meet and sign the divorce agreement this time, okay?” Shen Yixiao’s tone was calm.
"Just meet with a lawyer directly, and we'll meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau when we go through the divorce procedures." I don't want to see Shen Yixiao unless we go to get a divorce certificate.
"Haha." He chuckled. "Li Yue, I said that we are a community. After I went bankrupt, I was burdened with so much debt. You also need to bear part of it. We need to meet and sort it out. Now that you have Xu Zhengnan as your backer, it should be easy for you to pay off that debt. Don't worry so much."
What he said was very serious and made a lot of sense.
But I still refused to meet him. After all, he was too scheming and I didn’t know what would happen if we met.
Shen Yixiao lost some of his patience, "I can also bring the divorce agreement to your house to find you and explain it clearly in front of your parents. I know Xu Zhengnan has arranged people to protect them, but I don't mind forcing my way in. Your parents will probably find it annoying."
His true nature is exposed and he is still a threat to me.
After all, this is the simplest and most effective way.
"Chen Yixiao, provocation doesn't work on me. Just let your lawyer draft a divorce agreement. I'll check if there are any problems and then just sign it." I replied coldly.
No matter what he says or does, I won't be fooled by him again.
At this moment, I heard a small voice coming from the other side, "She really doesn't know what's good for her."
It was Su Ying's voice.
Then it was Meng Zicheng's voice, "Brother Xiao, she is definitely having an affair with Xu Zhengnan. You've been cheated on, and you're still talking to her in such a nice way? This is not your character!"
These two people are now hoping that Shen Yixiao will come and kill me, right?
I don’t know what I owe them. Maybe I was too good to them in the past, so one day something went wrong and they couldn’t accept the disparity and became angry and humiliated.
"That's enough!" Shen Yixiao interrupted them irritably, then calmed himself down and continued to speak to me as gently as possible, "I promise that there will be no traps in this meeting. We will just talk about the marital property and debts to avoid disputes in the future, OK?"
"I said, draft the agreement and send it to me. I'll sign it after reading it and if I agree. Some things don't have to be discussed in person. If you threaten me with my parents again, I'll call the police." I showed no sign of giving in.
After saying that, I hung up the phone.
——
Around ten o'clock in the evening, I saw a thin layer of snow on the branches outside.
Xu Zhengnan hasn't come back yet.
I don't know what's so urgent, and I'm a little worried.
Suddenly, my mother sent me a message, a somewhat blurry photo. Outside the small courtyard, there was a woman holding an umbrella, standing under a tree, her eyes staring in the direction of my mother's camera.
My mom: Xiaoyue, why does this woman look so familiar? It seems to be that Lu Xiaoyun.
I clicked on the photo and looked at it carefully, and was immediately shocked. It was really Lu Xiaoyun!
How does she know where my parents live now? And he found it!
Me: Mom, leave her alone and don’t open the door.
Xu Zhengnan's people are nearby, so there shouldn't be any big problems. But Lu Xiaoyun is a very shameless person. If she keeps hanging around my house, it will cause a lot of mental stress on my parents.
I opened WeChat, accepted the friend request that Lu Xiaoyun had sent me, and then made her voice call.
Lu Xiaoyun answered quickly, "Li Yue, you finally contacted me."
"What are you doing near my house?" I asked bluntly. "Get out of here before I have to send someone to chase you away."
"I saw your parents' current address from Shen Yixiao's phone and came here secretly." Lu Xiaoyun changed her previous attitude of begging for my forgiveness, and her tone revealed reluctance, "I can't understand what's so good about you. You're getting a divorce and cheating on someone, and Shen Yixiao is still thinking about winning you back."
Now there is no one around Shen Yixiao, so there is no need to hide her true heart.
Since she could see the contents of Shen Yixiao's phone, did it mean that she and Shen Yixiao had never been separated, and her disappearance some time ago was just because Shen Yixiao had hidden her.
Two people who are not close enough cannot know each other’s mobile phone password, let alone see the contents of the mobile phone.
Shen Yixiao was trying to win me back and not divorce me, but at the same time he still couldn't bear to let go of Lu Xiaoyun. It really opened my eyes.
"No matter what, Yixiao still loves you. Can't you give him another chance? As long as you promise not to divorce him, I can die as an atonement, really!" Lu Xiaoyun's tone suddenly changed, with a hint of tears in her voice.
