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

While waiting at a red light at an intersection, Fang Zheng asked, "Shall we go back to the hotel?"

Song Shiyan did not open his eyes. "The Lu family."

Fang Zheng was a little puzzled. It was almost midnight. Why was he still going back to the Lu family so late?

Lu Xingyao had been waiting for Song Shiyan in the living room. Upon hearing the car engine, she immediately put down her phone and ran outside happily.

Lu Yunshan had been waiting in the living room, but when Song Shiyan still hadn't returned by 10 o'clock, he went upstairs. Before going upstairs, he instructed the servants to wake Song Shiyan if he returned.

At this moment, the maid ran upstairs.

Lu Xingyao arrived at the door just as Song Shiyan walked up the steps. The man was tall and dignified, exuding a powerful aura that kept strangers at bay. Most people couldn't get close to him, but she could, which gave her a sense of superiority that made her feel unique.

"Brother Song."

Song Shiyan nodded slightly, said nothing more, and continued walking towards the villa.

Lu Xingyao followed closely behind, "Brother Song, you must be hungry since you're back so late. Shall I ask the kitchen to make you a midnight snack?"

"Mr. Song doesn't have the habit of eating late-night snacks." Fang Zheng stepped forward and shielded Lu Xingyao behind him.

He could tell that the eldest brother didn't like Lu Xingyao very much, but she liked to get close to him. Since she was a member of the Lu family, the eldest brother couldn't refuse her.

At times like these, it's natural for him to share the burden with the boss. It's because of his keen eye that he was able to stand out from his teammates and be kept by the boss's side.

Lu Xingyao pouted, "Why are you everywhere?"

Song Shiyan entered the living room just as Lu Yunshan came downstairs. He asked with concern, "Why are you back so late?"

Song Shiyan hummed in agreement. "Sorry to bother you."

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "Don't say 'it's bothering' as we're family. I'll have the kitchen make you something to eat."

"No need." Song Shiyan gestured to the sofa. "Please sit down."

Lu Yunshan realized that Song Shiyan had something to say to him, so he sat down on the sofa.

Song Shiyan sat down opposite Lu Yunshan. "Are you aware that Pei Chuan and Rong Zheng are getting a divorce?"

Lu Yunshan nodded. "I understand."

Song Shiyan remained silent, his deep gaze fixed on Lu Yunshan.

Lu Yunshan thought Song Shiyan was worried that this matter would affect the project, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, I've covered this up and there won't be any leaks."

Song Shiyan nodded. "What's your stance on this?"

"Of course I agree. I never agreed to Pei Chuan marrying her from the beginning. They are not a good match and it is destined to be short-lived."

What caused their divorce was not their social standing, but Lu Peichuan's infidelity. However, Song Shiyan did not correct him, only saying, "Peichuan did not go to complete the divorce procedures today."

Lu Yunshan didn't take this matter to heart at all. He thought that Lu Peichuan's signing last time meant he agreed to the divorce, and he felt that the matter was resolved. And now a month has passed?

He immediately instructed the butler, "Go to the study and bring down that divorce agreement."

The housekeeper went upstairs and quickly came down with the divorce papers.

Lu Yunshan checked the date and confirmed that it was indeed time.

"Can I take a look?" Song Shiyan asked.

Lu Yunshan handed him the agreement.

Song Shiyan opened the book and frowned when he saw a certain section.

Lu Yunshan hurriedly asked, "Is there a problem?"

Song Shiyan pursed his lips and remained silent, continuing to flip through the document. His gaze lingered for two seconds on Rong Zheng's signature before he closed the agreement and looked at Lu Yunshan. "As far as I know, Pei Chuan was at fault. How come the woman left with nothing?"

"The agreement was drafted by Rong Zheng's lawyer." This implies that Rong Zheng's decision to leave with nothing was voluntary.

Song Shiyan lowered his eyes and stroked the Hainan rosewood bracelet on his wrist. "This matter should be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise things may change."

Lu Yunshan thought it made sense. "I'll have Pei Chuan handle it tomorrow."

Song Shiyan nodded. "You should get some rest." He then got up and went upstairs.

Fang Zheng followed.

He asked why I was back at the Lu family home so late; it turned out I was there to urge them to get a divorce.

**

Rong Zheng received Lu Peichuan's call on the evening of the second day after moving into her new home. "You moved out?"

At this time, he should have returned to Jinsha Bay after get off work and found her not there. "Yes."

"Where did you move to?"

The man's voice was cold, clearly indicating his displeasure.

Rong Zheng didn't tell him, only saying, "I've already filed for divorce. You can wait for the court summons."

"Rong Zheng, are you really going to go this far?"

"You forced me to do this. If you come with me to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate, I can withdraw my appeal."

"Don't even think about getting a divorce!"

After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone immediately.

Rong Zheng put down her phone and continued tidying her desk. She had bought a desk with a bookshelf at the furniture market today and placed it in her room.

She spent the whole day tidying up her new home. She still has nine days of maternity leave left, but now that she's moved out, her expenses will be higher, so she needs to go back to work and earn money as soon as possible.

She plans to go back to work a week early, which is the day after tomorrow, so she needs to arrange everything at home in the next two days.

After tidying up her desk, she went out; she still had some things to buy.

Rong Zheng returned from the supermarket and saw Lu Peichuan's car in the parking space at the entrance of the apartment building. He had found her so quickly.

She hurried into the apartment building and returned home, where she immediately saw Lu Peichuan sitting on the sofa, holding his daughter and playing with her.

When Xu Ma saw Rong Zheng come in, she immediately went over and took the things from Rong Zheng's hands.

Rong Zheng walked up to Lu Peichuan with a cold face. "Who let you in?"

Lu Peichuan gently shook his daughter's soft white hand, looked up at Rong Zheng, and said in a gentle tone, "Zhengzheng, even if we were divorced, I would still be Tangtang's father and have the right to visit her at any time."

Rong Zheng was instantly rendered speechless by his words.

Lu Peichuan lowered his head and gently rubbed his daughter's little nose. "Baby, Mommy doesn't want Daddy anymore, what should we do? Can you help Daddy persuade Mommy?"

The tone was used in a coquettish manner.

Rong Zheng thought that the two of them had already fallen out in the conference room, and his attitude on the phone was so tough that they would definitely be at odds when they met. She didn't expect him to do this.

Watching her daughter giggle as he rubbed against her, she was momentarily speechless.

Lu Peichuan held his daughter's little feet and rubbed them against Rong Zheng's leg, looking at her pitifully, "I haven't had dinner yet."

Rong Zheng remained expressionless. "What does this have to do with me?"

Lu Peichuan then rubbed his daughter's foot against Rong Zheng, saying, "We're not divorced yet, so tell me, do I have any relationship with you?"

If Lu Peichuan were to rub against her, she would slap him, but now he was holding her daughter's foot, so Rong Zheng couldn't do anything about it and was too lazy to pay attention to him. She turned around and went into the room.

Trying to soften her heart with this trick won't work.

Why should I have known today?

Rong Zheng was about to sit down and read a book when she heard Lu Peichuan instruct Xu Ma to make him noodles. She immediately opened the door and looked at Xu Ma, who was walking towards the kitchen, "Don't make him any noodles." Then she looked coldly at Lu Peichuan, "No matter what you do, it won't change my determination to get a divorce."
