Chapter 11:
The next day, I went to the company.
After all, it's such a big company, and the divorce involves company shares and financial matters, so I have to keep an eye on it myself.
But as soon as I got out of the elevator, the manager came running towards me.
'Sir Shen, Ms.
Lu just sent a letter, firing Chen Xiangheng.
He's already packing up his things.' I raised an eyebrow.
I had been arguing with Lu Qingyu for so long, she never wanted to fire Chen Xiangheng.
But now she's doing it so straightforwardly? I touched my neck where the kiss marks had already started to fade.
Or maybe it's because she doesn't know how it feels to wear a green hat, Lu Qingyu finally understands what it's like to be in my shoes? 'Hmm,' I responded half-heartedly.
At this point, what's the point? I don't need the late compromise anymore after the child's death.
As I was walking towards the finance department, I bumped into Chen Xiangheng who was holding a large cardboard box, flanked by two security guards who appeared to be helping him carry his things, but were actually forcing him to leave.
He had a grim expression on his face and didn't say a word.
Everyone from Si Lu was pretending to work while secretly making fun of him, pointing and laughing, their faces full of ridicule.
This incapable relationally privileged individual, who still had such a big temper, no one dared to speak up against him in these years.
It was only because of Lu Qingyu's face that they tolerated him to some extent.
But now that Lu Qingyu is clearly unwilling to protect him, what worth does he have? He's nothing but a worthless piece of trash.
Chen Xiangheng looked up and saw me, a deep hatred appearing in his eyes.
I almost suspected that he wanted to rush over and hit me.
He wiped his face as if trying to make himself look less disheveled, and then raised his chin to face me.
'Shen Jiayue, are you happy now?' I didn't want to be laughed at in public, so I didn't want to pay attention to him.
But he just wouldn't leave me alone, blocking my way with a distorted face.
'Qingyu won't let you off!' he continued.
'She doesn't love you at all, do you know? She told me herself that she's had enough of you and has lost all interest in you! Qingyu won't leave me, she will definitely divorce you!' I had to hold back to keep from rolling my eyes.
'Are you a man? Offering yourself for free to someone else's wife, and you still think it's honorable?' I furrowed my brows.
'Was your mother planning to have you to become a gigolo?' I impatiently waved my hand.
'Security, take him away.
I don't want to listen to him babbling anymore.' 'Yes, Mr.
Shen!' Chen Xiangheng's most foolish aspect is that he doesn't realize that he only exists because he depends on Lu Qingyu.
Everything he has is given to him by Lu Qingyu.
When Lu Qingyu is willing to protect him, he can naturally be arrogant and domineering.
But once Lu Qingyu doesn't want him anymore, he's on a dead-end path.
Yet he's still shouting now, it's truly laughable.
The security guard quickly came and dragged Chen Xiangheng out, he was being escorted out like a dead dog, still provocatively saying, 'Shen Jiayue, don't be too happy too soon.
Qingyu will definitely bring me back! Just wait for it!'"
"I walked up to him and smiled lightly, saying, 'You're thinking too much.
It wasn't me this time.
It was Lu Qingyu who fired you.
When I mentioned divorce, she got scared to death.
She couldn't wait to get rid of you even before I brought up your name.' 'Impossible!' Chen Xiangheng's face turned pale, then he gritted his teeth and said, 'You're lying.
She wouldn't do this to me!' 'Believe it or not,' I shrugged and walked away.
Behind me, Chen Xiangheng angrily yelled, 'Impossible, Shen Jiayue, you're lying to me, right? Qingyu wouldn't treat me like this.
She said she loved me, she said—' I turned my back to him and smirked.
Love? She had said that word to me countless times.
And now, here we are.
I finally see it clearly.
Whether it's me, Chen Xiangheng, or any other man, she has never truly loved anyone.
What she loves is the never-ending novelty.'
