After leaving his father behind, the son of a prominent figure in Beijing's elite circles has g

She had indeed been suffering injustice, but she was kept in the dark. Moreover, Luo Qinghe was so busy that she couldn't bear to bother her or make her worry.

Rong Zheng pursed her lips and looked at Luo Qinghe without saying a word.

"Are you stupid? You shoulder everything by yourself. What am I to you? Do you even consider me a friend?" Luo Qinghe questioned loudly while tears streamed down her face.

Rong Zheng quickly wiped away her tears, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't cry."

"Go away." Luo Qinghe pushed Rong Zheng's hand away, turned her head away and quickly wiped away her tears. "I'm not crying, something just got in my eye."

"Yes, you didn't cry."

Luo Qinghe glared at Rong Zheng with a stern face, looking very angry. After a few seconds, she hugged her tightly, her voice choked with emotion, "Fool."

What a pitiful fool!

Rong Zheng gently patted Luo Qinghe's back, offering silent comfort.

After a moment, Luo Qinghe calmed down and pushed Rong Zheng away somewhat embarrassedly.

She should comfort Rong Zheng.

What are your plans?

Rong Zheng revealed the decision she had made on her way here: "I want a divorce."

Luo Qinghe nodded, "Such a scumbag should indeed be divorced, but he is not an ordinary man. He is the president of the Lu Group, with power and influence. If he doesn't want to divorce, this marriage may not be so easy to get off."

Rong Zheng disagreed. "How could he not want to leave? He likes Su Qingya. I'm giving them my blessing. They won't have to be secretive anymore. He should be happy."

Luo Qinghe waved her hand, "You're oversimplifying things. He's the president of the Lu Group, and his marital status directly affects the company's image, that's one point."

Secondly, you don't understand the inherent flaws in men. If he truly wanted a divorce, he wouldn't have hidden it from you. It's more likely he wants to maintain a stable marriage while having affairs on the side.

Rong Zheng frowned and fell silent instantly.

Luo Qinghe got up and poured Rong Zheng a glass of water, "to soothe her throat."

Rong Zheng took the water, drank a few sips, and felt much better after crying, her voice hoarse. She looked at Luo Qinghe and asked, "So I don't even have the right to divorce?"

Luo Qinghe thought for a moment and said, "I suggest you try to gauge his attitude towards divorce first."

If he's afraid you'll find out about his affair, cause a scene, damage his reputation, and affect the company's stock, so he's been keeping it from you, then you can confront him and tell him you're willing to have a peaceful divorce. That would be the best outcome.

But if he doesn't want a divorce at all and wants both his wife and his childhood sweetheart, then you can't confront him directly for the time being. You can only secretly collect evidence of his infidelity and then use the evidence to threaten him into divorce. If he doesn't divorce you, then sue him.

One more thing, if you can get evidence that he neglects the child, that would be even better, as it would greatly increase your chances of winning the custody battle for Tangtang.

Rong Zheng was very fortunate to have Luo Qinghe as a friend, otherwise she wouldn't know so much. She immediately nodded, "Okay, we'll do it your way."

Are you really determined to get a divorce?

Instead of answering, Rong Zheng asked, "Are you suggesting that I share a husband with Su Qingya?"

"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to tell you that once divorce is on the agenda in a marriage with a wealthy family, there are many problems to face, such as the division of property, his pressure on power, and the custody of Tangtang. If you are not determined enough, you will be the one who gets hurt in the end."

Rong Zheng's gaze was resolute. "Even if it means getting hurt, I'm going to get a divorce. As for the division of property..."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "I only want Tangtang, I don't want anything else."

Luo Qinghe refused, "Why shouldn't I want it? He cheated on me during our marriage, he did something wrong. You wasted the best years of your youth on him and even risked your life to give birth to his daughter. You deserve every penny you're owed!"

Rong Zheng gave a bitter smile. "I married him not for his money, but for him as a person. Now that I don't want him anymore, what's the point of his money?"

Besides, his mother and grandfather don't like me. If he doesn't want a divorce, I can try to get it from them, but if I ask for property, they probably won't help me. Right now, I just want a divorce, the sooner the better.

She was never one to drag things out; once she had made her decision, she just wanted to be free as soon as possible.

Luo Qinghe is a lawyer, and she knows that in fact, many divorces in wealthy families end up being deadlocked over the division of property, leading to endless disputes.

If Rong Zheng didn't want the property, the divorce would indeed be much easier, but she just felt sorry for Rong Zheng.

But then she thought, Rong Zheng had no power or influence, how could she possibly fight against the powerful and influential Lu family? If she really wanted a divorce, she would only suffer losses.

She sighed helplessly, "Okay, it's good that you think that way. At least it won't cause internal strife. I'll fight this divorce battle with you."

Rong Zheng held Luo Qinghe's hand, "Thank goodness for you, thank goodness for you."

That night, Rong Zheng didn't go back. She knew that hiding here wouldn't solve the problem, but she wanted to be weak for one night, just one night, to heal her wounds and to let go of everything from the past.

The next day.

Rong Zheng woke up and turned on her phone.

There were several missed calls from Lu Peichuan, as well as several messages.

The message basically said that he went back to her house and learned from Rong Xi what happened to Rong Xi last night. Knowing that she was in a bad mood, he advised her that Rong Xi was still young and would get better with time. He said that she wanted some peace and quiet and he wouldn't bother her, but if she needed anything, she should definitely call him.

Rong Zheng was still thinking about how to tell Lu Peichuan about her sudden departure last night. Now that he had already given her an excuse, she might as well go along with it.

She replied with a message: 【Okay.】

A reply came quickly from the other end: [You finally turned your phone on! Are you feeling better now? Where are you? Are you at Luo Qinghe's house? Do you want me to come pick you up?]

Rong Zheng looked at this series of questions and could sense Lu Peichuan's worry, but whenever she thought of him being with Su Qingya, she felt that these worries were hypocritical and disgusting.

【Need not. 】

[Then relax and don't be angry anymore. You just finished your postpartum period, so take good care of yourself.]

Rong Zheng didn't reply.

Luo Qinghe said she wanted to take a day off to have some fun with Rong Zheng.

Rong Zheng knew that Luo Qinghe was playing with her to distract her from her sadness. "I'm really fine. Besides, I have to go back and take care of Tangtang. I don't have time to play with you."

"Are you really alright?" Luo Qinghe was still worried.

"I'm fine, I'm not that fragile."

Rong Zheng and Luo Qinghe went out together. She first took Luo Qinghe to the law firm, and then returned to Jinsha Bay.

Evening, at the restaurant.

Lu Peichuan picked up a piece of fish, removed the bones, and put it into Rong Zheng's bowl.

Rong Zheng paused slightly while eating, looked up at Lu Peichuan, and said, "It seems like it's been a long time since we ate together."

Lu Peichuan looked at Rong Zheng with a gentle expression, "I've been too busy at the company lately, but I'll definitely make more time for you in the future."

Rong Zheng merely curled the corners of her lips slightly, not answering his question, "I have a question for you."

"What's the problem?"

Have you ever thought about divorcing me?
