39: Chapter 39 Gaining Custody of Xiao Ji 39: Chapter 39 Gaining Custody of Xiao Ji From a young age, her aunt had always spoken to her quite rudely, and An Ruo had grown accustomed to this behavior, even learning to completely ignore her words.
“Uncle, as you know, Tang Yuchen is now pursuing Miss Yun Feixue.
Lady Yun is different from his previous women; he couldn’t possibly just have her as his mistress.
Therefore, our divorce is inevitable.
Uncle, you’ve also obtained many things you wanted through me, and I believe our debt to you has been repaid.
Soon, I’ll no longer be of any use to you, so please agree to let me take Xiao Ji away,” An Ruo pleaded.
An Mingqi slightly furrowed his brows, lost in thought.
Every word An Ruo said made sense; her divorce from Tang Yuchen was a foregone conclusion.
To him, she no longer held any value for exploitation.
With that being the case, it would be better to let her take An Ji with her and relieve himself of a burden.
“Alright, I will have the documents ready today, and you can come to sign them tomorrow.
However, you can have custody of Xiao Ji, but I have one condition.”
Joy surged through An Ruoxin’s heart; right now, she would agree to any number of demands, even ten.
“What condition?” she asked.
An Mingqi spoke frankly, “I need to sign a contract with a company, but they’re still hesitating.
If I need to sign the contract, I’ll need a guarantor.
You are Tang Yuchen’s wife, so I want you to be my guarantor.”
An Ruo was stunned; she had never done such a thing before.
Seeing her hesitation, An Mingqi comforted her, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen.
It’s just a matter of being a guarantor.
Uncle’s company has been operating for over a decade without any issues; don’t you trust me?
If you agree, I’ll let you take Xiao Ji away immediately, otherwise, forget about it!”
An Ruo asked anxiously, “Are you sure nothing will happen?”
An Mingqi nodded firmly, “No, it won’t.
Having you as a guarantor is simply to gain the other party’s trust and give them peace of mind.
Don’t worry, there will be no issues.”
An Ruo thought it over and agreed, “Okay, I agree to your terms.”
After their agreement, An Ruo went upstairs to visit An Ji.
Ever since he was young, An Ji preferred to stay in his room reading and studying when he was free.
He seldom went out to play or came downstairs to chat with everyone.
An Ji was thrilled to see An Ruo, and she too was overjoyed.
She couldn’t wait to tell him that she would soon take him away from there.
Upon hearing this, An Ji became even more excited, hugging An Ruo and giving her two big kisses.
Seeing his reaction, An Ruo felt a bit heartbroken.
An Ji must have wanted to leave this family for a long time; the way he had repressed his growth all these years must have been even harder on him than on her.
But it was okay, she would soon give him a life full of happiness and freedom, where he would live as freely as a little bird in the sky.
The next day, An Ruo arrived at her uncle’s house early, and An Mingqi first took her to sign the contract.
Behind the space for the guarantor’s signature, An Ruo wrote down her own name.
An Mingqi kept his promise, handing over the custody transfer documents to An Ruo, and after completing the formalities, they went their separate ways.
That day, An Ruo was overwhelmed with excitement.
She had secured custody of Xiao Ji, and if she could just divorce Tang Yuchen, everything would be perfect.
An Ruo looked over the divorce agreement in her hands time and time again, even as the day had not yet faded to night.
She had no idea when Tang Yuchen might return.
