His sharp, icy gaze shot towards her, coldly asking, “Did you find out something?”
Under his all-seeing gaze, Jiang Yufei’s eyes flickered slightly. She subtly shifted her gaze away, denying firmly, “What could I possibly know? I’ve been asking for a divorce for more than just a day or two.”
The man chuckled coldly, “Indeed, you have been asking for more than just a day or two. But I am curious, why did you call me last night to say those things and even more curious why you have suddenly presented me with divorce papers today. Jiang Yufei, it’s like you’re offering me a pillow when I’m about to sleep, don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence?”
Jiang Yufei was puzzled by his words.
Did he think someone had revealed the existence of Yan Yue to her? Since he seemed to think so, she had no reason to hide anything. Let him misunderstand.
“You’re right, it is indeed quite a coincidence. Yes, I know about your affair, and I know you’re going to divorce me immediately. Don’t ask how I knew, I just do.” Let him assume that one of his friends had spilled the beans to her.
If speaking the truth would hasten their divorce, she didn’t mind saying it.
“Hmm, just as I thought!” Ruan Tianling immediately changed his expression, his eyes shooting out a sinister chill, “Jiang Yufei, I have underestimated your scheming nature!”
He stepped forward, gripped her chin fiercely and spat out angrily, “You always put on such a superior air, but it was all an act!
Did you think that giving me the initiative to sign our divorce papers would ease my worries about shaking you off, letting me take my time about our divorce?
I’ll tell you, the woman I want to marry has never been you, and neither have I loved you!
Don’t assume you’re playing a winning hand, I won’t let you have your way.
Just you wait and see!”
After spitting out those harsh words, he turned and left without looking back.
Jiang Yufei was both puzzled and angry.
What was she being overly confident about? What sort of scheme could she possibly devise?
His words were baseless!
His beloved came back, she willingly presented the divorce papers, not only was he ungrateful, he even spoke about her in such derogatory terms, he was nothing short of a lunatic!
Jiang Yufei absolutely couldn’t understand Ruan Tianling’s words at the end, and she gave up on trying.
But she was deeply dejected.
She had thought for sure they would divorce today, but after expressing his disdain for her, he didn’t revisit the topic of divorce.
What did he mean? If he disliked her and scorned her, why wouldn’t he divorce her?
Jiang Yufei was left pacing irritably back and forth, swearing at Ruan Tianling a hundred times in her heart!
By evening, everyone was seated at the dinner table, only Ruan Tianling was absent.
Ruan Anguo noted his absence and his face fell.
“Why has Tianling not returned?” He asked.
The butler replied loyally, “Young Master said he had things to attend to and wouldn’t be back for dinner.’
‘”‘The company does not need his daily presence, what could he be so busy with that he can’t even make time to come home for dinner?” The old Master’s voice dropped several notches.
Lady Ruan quickly smiled and said, “Dad, I guess he’s probably with friends. Tianling has a lot of friends, they often come together.”
“Hmm, what kind of friends are they? Nothing but rabble! All they know is drinking, driving cars, and playing with women.. It’s better to spend less time with such friends!”
