"Thank you." Ye Nanxun expressed gratitude, pulling out a pack of candy from her bag, "I was in a rush today, so I just bought some candy. As weddings are commemorated with candies, divorces should also be celebrated. I'd like to congratulate all the women who are divorcing today on escaping a life of misery. Please have some, don't be shy."
Following a moment of silence, enthusiastic applause filled the room and lingered, especially from the women who were about to divorce, their emotions running high.
She offended all the men present in the process.
However, given her beauty, the men may have felt slightly uncomfortable, but none would hold it against her too much.
She elegantly walked over to a trash can, twirled her hands, and left behind only a torn marriage certificate and divorce document in the trash.
"Miss, if you plan on remarrying, you'll need the divorce document. Although it can be replaced, but..."
Her soft smile cut off the staff member mid-sentence: "Once I divorce, I won't remarry. Even if I suddenly go crazy and want to 're-eat the past', I absolutely won't accept this marriage certificate to avoid unnecessary back-and-forth, wasting national resources." She walked away nonchalantly after saying this.
From start to finish, she didn't spare even a single glance for that bastard man.
Zhou Sinian stood still, holding his own marriage certificate and divorce document. He watched as the woman walked away.
If he wasn't one of the parties involved, he would probably have admired her actions.
However, as one of the main characters involved, he felt overpowered with mixed feelings.
Lin Zhou, who had been watching from the sideline, almost died of anxiety. Although it really wasn't his place to meddle, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss, if you didn't want to divorce, why did you come today?"
The angry man glared at him: "Why didn't you stop me then?"
Lin Zhou was left speechless.
I wish I could have stopped you if I could.
Thus, it's said that impulse is the devil.
Clamping down his teeth, the man barely managed to suppress his rage.
Alright, very good.
He hadn't been this angry in a long time. Today seemed to make up for it.
Did she think she could erase everything by tearing up the marriage certificate and divorce document?
He had already let her off for her actions because she had cared for the elder in the past two years.
Now, it didn't matter whose face to save.
While enraged, he was also perplexed.
For the first time since their two-year marriage, he realized he really didn't know this woman, his wife - well, now ex-wife. He remembered her as a reticent woman with a cold temperament and gentle character. But what he saw today totally subverted his perceptions.
Impatient, hot-tempered…
Was this really the woman he remembered?
Was he mistaken?
Buried in his thoughts, he almost forgot about leaving.
This behavior made the officer who processed their divorce think he was regretful and began to comfort him:" Sir, there's no such thing as a regret medicine in this world. If you've made a mistake, it's a mistake. If you really didn't want a divorce, why didn't you act earlier?"
Then he didn't even give Zhou a chance for rebuttal, "Sir, you're blocking others."
On his way to the civil affairs office, Zhou Sinian was filled with dissatisfaction. Now, leaving the place, he was laden with pent-up rage.
In the car.
Assistant Lin was cautiously sitting in the driver's seat: "CEO, are we going back to the company now?"
'Dingdong', the sound of a new text message. He reflexively reached out for his phone and instantly regretted it. Was it too late to throw away the phone now?
"What happened?" Zhou Sinian asked, noting the change in his assistant's expression. Having worked together for two years, he figured out it wasn't a good thing from Lin's face. He was worried about important affairs, so he asked.
He soon regretted probing.
"CEO, your wife, I mean, your ex-wife..."
A cold glance swept over him. Lin Zhou shivered, realizing he'd said the wrong thing. He hurriedly corrected himself: "Ms. Ye asked me to tell you that before seven o'clock tonight, you must personally tell Elder Zhou about your divorce; otherwise, she will buy a 'Hot Search' and announce it to the world."
"Damn woman." His composure completely collapsed at this moment.
He hadn't even started dealing with her yet, but her trouble arrived first.
"Go back to the old house." He gritted his teeth as he spoke.
