Chapter 457: But It’s Because...
Xiao Jinghuai narrowed his eyes, "I’m all ears."His calm demeanor made Song Song pause slightly, taking several deep breaths before speaking, "I’ve chosen to divorce you, not because I am vain and can’t endure hardships, but because..."
"Forget it, I don’t want to continue."
After saying that, Song Song swiftly pulled out her phone from her small leather bag and dialed a number in front of the man, "Lawyer Xiao, can you help me draft a new divorce agreement? Yes, the matter I mentioned last time is void."
Song Song looked at the man, seeing his unchanged expression, as if what she was saying had nothing to do with him, "Yes, this time we must divorce, there won’t be any surprises. Lawyer Xiao, please."
When Song Song finished the call, Xiao Jinghuai said indifferently, "Quick pace, you even have a lawyer prepared."
Song Song knew he must have misunderstood, but she didn’t want to explain, let him think whatever he wants!
Just consider it that she’s divorcing to avoid being dragged down...
"Xiao Jinghuai, let’s pretend I never came today. I will leave the divorce matter entirely to Lawyer Xiao, and I will leave Qingcheng City with Little Xiyou now, never to return here again."
Song Song thought if she intentionally made her words harsher, he might feel a bit remorseful, or his expression wouldn’t be so calm and collected.
But in reality, it was the opposite. Not only did the man not say any words of persuasion, he even smiled and said, "Alright, safe travels."
Song Song felt heartbroken, her eyes reddened as she glanced at the man, then ran out of the small meeting room...
At this moment, she didn’t know that before exiting, someone listening at the door had already returned to the large meeting room to report the situation to Di Shiyi.
Upon receiving the news, Di Shiyi laughed aloud, "That coward Xiao Jiuru, saying Xiao Jinghuai had a hidden move, it’s all nonsense! At this point, if there was indeed a hidden move, it would have been revealed already." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Now Di Shiyi was getting more excited as he thought about it, unable to restrain himself from taking out his phone to call the old master also in Qingcheng City, "Great-grandfather, I have some good news to share, one sure to make you look at me with new eyes."
The old master seemed to be holding his breath, "By coincidence, I also have something to discuss with you, hurry over now, I have questions for you."
"...Oh, alright."
Previously, Di Shiyi was not favored in the Di Family, but since Di Wujiang for a woman washed away his past, ignoring the mundane world to willingly teach in a remote place, he gradually came into the old master’s favor and began to involve himself in some affairs of the Di Family.
Even so, the old master’s attitude towards him hadn’t changed much, always speaking to him coldly.
But the tone of voice just now was clearly... a bit different!
His intuition told him it was something good, and since it’s good, he can’t miss it.
"Let’s go!"
Di Shiyi snapped his fingers at the people behind him, and when he reached the meeting room door, he happened to bump into Xiao Jinghuai returning. He smiled smugly, "Five billion, settled."
Xiao Jinghuai nodded silently, eyes sharp like an eagle, "Hope you achieve great success this time."
At this moment, Di Shiyi was completely overwhelmed by the impending victory, without contemplating Xiao Jinghuai’s words, he passed by him humming a tune, one hand in his pocket.
And shortly after Di Shiyi left the Xiao Family, Xiao Jinghuai couldn’t suppress the agitation in his heart any longer, leaving behind bewildered shareholders to drive back home.
