43: Chapter 43 Dumped by a Woman 43: Chapter 43 Dumped by a Woman Tang Yuchen’s eyes brimmed with a bloodthirsty murderous intent, and with just a bit more force, he could easily break An Ruo’s neck.
An Ruo was unable to breathe, her chest hurt unbearably, and her vision was fading in and out of darkness.
He really intended to kill her, without any trace of mercy.
Being his wife surely meant to have a short lifespan.
Even more ridiculous was the fact that she might be the only wife he actually killed by his own hands…
Just then, Tang Yuchen’s phone suddenly rang.
The sharp, abrupt sound shattered the deathly atmosphere.
The man frowned slightly and swiftly withdrew his hand, causing An Ruo to fall to the ground.
Picking up the phone, he glanced at it and answered with a tone that masked the sharpness in his voice, “What is it?”
“Yuchen, I’ve been thinking, we better not see each other anymore.
You have your family, and I cannot… do anything to break you and your wife apart…”
Yun Feixue said sadly over the phone, each of her words spoken with apparent agony as if separating from him was a profoundly saddening affair.
Tang Yuchen glanced at An Ruo on the ground, and spoke indifferently, “I understand your thoughts, don’t worry, I’ll resolve this for you tomorrow.”
After hanging up the call, he squatted down, gripped An Ruo’s chin and said, “You want a divorce, don’t you?”
An Ruo’s face was ashen, her eyes still clear and defiant.
“How exactly do you want me to agree to a divorce?” she asked weakly.
Tang Yuchen curved his lips into a smile, “An Ruo, marrying you cost me a fortune, and now just seven days into our marriage, you want a divorce?
There’s no such cheap thing in this world.”
An Ruo lowered her gaze and gritted her teeth in distress, “I will work hard to earn money and pay you back…”
The man scoffed in return, “Based on what you are?
How much can you earn?
One hundred million—you couldn’t make that much even if you were sold by weight!
What makes you think you can repay me?”
He was right, she couldn’t possibly earn one hundred million.
An Ruo took a deep breath, pained, “Then what do you suggest?
What’s the point in being married ?
Since you intend to be with Lady Yun, you will eventually divorce me anyway.
I’m just bringing it up now to facilitate you both.
Since that’s the case, your investment in me would go to waste…
Why won’t you just let me go sooner?”
The more Tang Yuchen heard, the angrier he became—it was because she was the one who suggested the divorce first, that’s why he disagreed!
Being dumped by a woman, where could Tang Yuchen put his face?!
Releasing An Ruo’s chin, he stood up and sat down on the sofa, slightly bowing his head.
Half of his face was buried in shadow, looking sinister and terrifying.
“Fine, you want a divorce?
If you satisfy me tonight, I’ll grant it to you!”
An Ruo’s eyes trembled slightly, she very much wanted the divorce, but his conditions…
“If you fail, don’t expect me to give you another chance.”
“I will!” An Ruo nodded hastily, propping herself up and asking tentatively, “What do you want me to do?”
Tang Yuchen looked at her expressionlessly, his thin lips uttering the cold words, “Strip!”
An Ruo clenched her fists tightly, her neatly trimmed nails digging into her flesh.
This was the living room, where servants frequently passed through.
To make her strip here… was nothing but a cruel humiliation.
Deep down, An Ruo was actually a very traditional and conservative girl.
Being dominated by Tang Yuchen had caused her immense pain.
