In the spacious and bright living room, a glass of cold water was poured down from the top of his head. Shen Qing subconsciously shivered under the moonlight.
The man standing next to her threw the empty cup on the ground and said in a tone that could not hide his disgust, "Are you awake? If you're not awake, go to the pool outside and wake up!"
Shen Qingyue raised her head in a daze and saw that the man she had loved for half her life was looking at her angrily. Didn't she die in a car accident? She looked around and her memories slowly merged.
Two years ago, she accidentally broke a watch that Qin Zhen had cherished all along. Qin Zhen got angry at her, slammed the door, and didn't return all night. Upon inquiring, she found out that the watch was the first gift Wei Jiu'er had given him. She was angry that he treasured gifts from other women but ignored her. At that time, she was young and hot-blooded, so she confronted him, and they had an argument...
Shen Qingyue quickly realized that she had been reborn. The Shen family was still intact, and she had not been pushed to the brink of despair yet.
Qin Zhen was obviously furious, but he was trying his best to endure it. After all, the Shen family was still around, but it did not stop him from using cold violence on her. "Starting tomorrow, I'm moving out of this house. Feel free to create a scene by yourself. You should really look in the mirror. How can you resemble a proper young lady?"
Shen Qing Yue looked at him and said, "Qin Zhen, you are my legal husband, but you've always had an unclear relationship with Wei Jiu'er. Have you ever looked in the mirror? What about your own face?"
"You still have the cheek to say that?" Qin Zhen frowned. If you didn't force me, would I have married you?"
Shen Qingyue smiled bitterly, "So that's how you always look at me…"
It was more accurate to say that it was Qin Zhen's default, rather than her coercion. When the Qin family encountered problems and needed funds, he could not find anyone to help. Someone offered him a way out, betting on whether the Shen family would intervene and to what extent they could help. Qin Zhen put on a noble facade and found her, proposing to marry her. At that time, everyone knew that Miss Shen Qingyue was infatuated with Qin Zhen, and now that he had actually come to her, she felt like the luckiest person. She had not even graduated yet, and she was already married to him, even forcing her grandfather to take action and save the Qin family.
She closed her eyes and spoke calmly. She had missed one opportunity due to her delusions, but she would not make the same mistake again. "You don't have to move out. Haven't you always wanted a divorce? I agree."
...
After Qin Zhen left, Shen Qingyue also packed her luggage and prepared to leave. She carried her luggage out of the room. The butler walked over and took the luggage from her.
She lightly raised her eyebrows, "Thank you."
The butler accompanied her downstairs. "Young Madam, where are you going?"
"Home." Worried that the butler wouldn't understand, she added, "Back to the Shen family."
"Does Young Master know?" the butler asked.
"I've told him," she replied.
In the morning when they talked about divorce, she mentioned that she would move back to the Shen family in the afternoon. Qin Zhen did not respond at all and just left. Regardless of Qin Zhen's reaction, she was going to end this marriage.
The butler could not possibly be unaware of the divorce between Shen Qingyue and Qin Zhen, but he originally did not believe it. Now, however, he hesitated. He had watched the Young Master grow up and naturally hoped they could live a good life together. He couldn't help but advise, "Young Madam, it's normal for couples to have conflicts. Since you have feelings for the Young Master, don't act impulsively..."
Shen Qingyue calmly said, "But he doesn't have any feelings for me. After all these years in this house, don't you see that? Divorce is inevitable for us. Instead of causing a scene later and losing face, it's better for everyone to maintain their dignity now."
Most importantly, after experiencing life and death once, she was truly tired.
The butler looked at her back and had a premonition. Young Madam would never come back again!
Shen Qingyue moved very quickly. The next day, she hired a lawyer to draft the divorce agreement and sent it directly to the Qin Corporation. The marriage between the Qin family and the Shen family, the two consortiums, involved complicated interests. But Shen Qingyue did not want anything. A simple two pages of paper decided her marriage.
When Qin Zhen received the divorce agreement, he sneered. He knew Shen Qingyue's temperament too well. Did she think that by making such a big fuss, she could force him to apologize? She was dreaming.
He threw the agreement back on the table, his expression indifferent. "Did she say anything?"
The lawyer respectfully replied, "Young Madam said that she will be waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock and hopes that you'll be punctual."
"I understand." Qin Zhen casually put the divorce agreement into the shredder without caring about it. As for Shen Qingyue divorcing him? That was impossible. This woman was like a sticky plaster and couold not be separated from him.
