Chapter 200: Let's Get a Divorce

front of her, but also because of Lu Kuo's charming personality that attracted so many people. 。"Why are you telling me this" It's not like her to fight over a man with another student. 。。Ruan Ruan..."Why won't anyone answer my phone calls" He stood at the end of the corridor outside the ward, exhausted from a night of running around, but all he wanted was to see her. 。The phone and bag are in the car, you took the car keys with you. 。"Sorry, then you walk back home" he said incredulously. 。"Well" 。"

“You...won't have the guard at the door call you a car” He said helplessly, his voice tinged with concern. " 。"It's fine, not too far. I can think about some things." 。She froze the atmosphere with her words. Zhuo Yunan looked at the person in the camera and sensed a hint of unease, so he quickly spoke: “Ting Lan, don't overthink it, let's just..." 。"Okay, I'm going to take a shower. You take good care of your mom and we'll talk later." 。"Ended the video call" 。She was truly exhausted. These past few days had been like riding a roller coaster, up and down, upside down. She felt trapped, tossed and turned, her insides churning and aching, no longer in their proper place. 。At last, everything was quiet. I lay in bed, drifting off to sleep, and for who knows how long. Then, suddenly, I woke up, finding myself held in a familiar embrace. 。She was surprised: "How did you come back"

"I came back to give you a phone and a bag" 。Actually, he hung up the video last night and drove back to Zhuo's house after settling the hospital arrangements. 。Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, I didn't wake her. 。Both of them were calm at this moment, looking at each other with eyes locked. Zhuo Yu'an reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, softly asking: "Were you scared yesterday" 。She shook her head, her panic from yesterday a fraction of his. "She's fine, she received timely treatment yesterday" 。He comforted her 。"Hmm" 。Zuo Yu'an, you don't have to go to such lengths for me. 。You destroyed my father, you destroyed the Zhuo family, and you can't escape the consequences. 。I don't need you to fight the world for me. 。Zuo Yu'an fell silent, his gaze deep and searching as he looked at her. He leaned in and gently kissed her. They held each other close, their lips meeting in a deep and passionate embrace. 。After a long silence, Shu Tinglan buried her face in his embrace and whispered, “Zhuo Yu’an, let’s get divorced.” 。"The tone was so calm, calm to the point of saying, 'Let's go on a trip.'" 。Her head was still buried in his chest, listening to the sudden drumbeat of his heart and the unexpected chill and stiffness that followed. 。"Such words should never be said lightly." 。He pressed closer to her, his movements more insistent, but he didn't have the courage to look down at her, afraid of seeing determination, resolution in her eyes. 。"It wasn't a casual statement; it was a decision made after much thought and deliberation." 。Her voice was low, but firm. 。Because when she's with him, it's not 1 1=2, nor 1 1=3, but rather 1 1=0, or even a negative number. 。Zhuo Yu'an gently pushed her away from his embrace, meeting her gaze once more. What met his eyes were Shu Tinglan's bloodshot eyes and an unwavering determination in her stare. 。His heart instantly ached, so badly that he couldn't utter a word. 。Instead, Shu Tinglan continued, “In this relationship, I can no longer feel happiness. Every day, I feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff, one foot hanging in mid-air, just waiting to fall into the abyss.” 。I don't feel happy at all anymore. 。She was too calm and too sincere. It wasn't something said out of impulse or anger, but a carefully considered conclusion with a resolute attitude, effectively shutting down all of Zhuo Yu’an's attempts to persuade her to stay. 。"Tinglan, I will help you solve the problems on the project, and I promise it won't harm innocent people. " 。。She, a person so gentle, spoke words that cut to the bone. Her gentleness was a blade, knowing exactly how to wound her. 。At this moment, Zhuo Yu'an's phone rang. It was the nanny calling from the hospital, saying his mother had woken up and was looking for him. 。"Well"

He gave a terse reply before hanging up, but he didn't move. He just stared at Shu Tinglan:

"No matter what, I won't agree to a divorce." 。As long as we're together, there's always a way to work things out. As long as we're together... he can breathe normally. 。Shutinglan didn't want to keep dwelling on this issue. She had expressed herself, and now she started urging him: "Go see your mother first. We can talk about this later." 。If he didn't leave soon, she was about to lose it. 。

"Good" 。"He also didn't want to discuss such "meaningless" topics with her at all." 。The following week, Cheng Zhimin gradually recovered. Zhuo Yu'an didn't have to stay in the hospital to look after her anymore. Besides visiting once in the morning and evening, he worked in the company during the day and went home to accompany Shu Tinglan at night. 。Of course, he is also actively looking for Ma, the "absconding with funds" boss of Yu Zhong Estate, but the man is deliberately hiding and has his mother's arrangements to help him conceal himself. It wouldn't be easy to find him. 。Shutinglan was stopped at the door by the nanny on her first visit to the hospital to see Cheng Zhimin, who was told not to go in and not to upset Teacher Cheng any further. 。While the nanny had a good feeling about Shu Tinglan, she still clearly distinguished between near and far relationships. Compared to Teacher Cheng, she was much more distant. Even when speaking outside the ward, her tone was harsher. 。The Zhuo family, they all appear cold and aloof on the surface, even when saying things that pierce your heart, they just casually utter them. But when real trouble comes, they're still family after all. 。This time, when Teacher Cheng had an accident, I could see that Yu An was truly sincere. He has been the most dedicated in taking care of things at the hospital these past few days. 。The nanny's implication was that they were the real family, and outsiders couldn't break them apart. 。She also wanted the best for this family, so leaving was the best choice. 。

"Let her in." 。Chén Zhīmín in the ward knew she had arrived and called her inside. 。Okay

The nanny agreed and whispered to Shu Tinglan, "Be sure not to say anything that might upset Mr. Cheng." 。

"Good" 。She agreed and pushed the door open. 。Cheng Zhimin, in her patient gown, leaned against the bed. Despite being ill, she sat upright with good color, showing no sign of having just returned from the brink of death. 。"I'm still alive, disappointing you, aren't I" 。"The moment they opened their mouth, it was sarcasm dripping from every word." 。Shu Tinglan wasn't angry, but he didn't offer any pleasantries or polite greetings either. He pulled up a chair and sat down by the bedside, taking out a file from his bag and placing it beside Cheng Zemin. In a flat tone, he said: "I promise you a divorce. This is the draft agreement I prepared. Take a look and see if there's anything you need to modify." 。She conceded to Cheng Zhimin, calmly placing the agreement before her. 。

This was something Cheng Zhimin hadn't expected. She raised an eyebrow at her, glancing disdainfully at the thin sheets of paper and carefully reading each word and line. 。"You're getting out of the house" She pointed to the property division section, indeed a bit surprised. 。Since she's already willing to compromise with a divorce, the Zhu family certainly isn't stingy.

"There's no need for you to leave everything behind. I don't think Yu An is a petty person either. After all, you had a good time together, and I won't shortchange you on your share of the property." 。"Cheng Zhimin didn't want her son to feel any more guilty towards her because of this, so she gave him some money to buy peace of mind." 。"That's enough, I just ask that you allow Lisan Shi to continue operating the Kang Yang project as planned. That's my only condition for the divorce." 。I can't match herhe turned 18, everyone she met along the way had been kind.After the three of them finished their meal, Song Jingye hadn't returned yet."Xiaoning, let's go for a walk with your grandmother to aid dige...
