310 My marriage with her is meaningless

When Lu Mengjie looked at the clock on the wall, she saw that it was already four in the morning. She decided not to go back to sleep and instead, she stayed up until her scheduled breakfast was delivered to her.

She thought that her day would go like usual but later that afternoon, Cian entered her room, carrying a brown envelope.

"I want you to sign these for me, Mengmeng," he said with his usual friendly smile.

Lu Mengjie knew that enraging him would do her no good so she quietly took the envelope to check the documents inside it. Her eyes slowly went wide the moment her eyes landed on what was written on the paper.

As she skimmed through it, a few words stung her eyes.

"T-this..." she turned her shocked gaze at the man in front of her.

"Sign it." Cian handed a pen to her.

"N-no..." she shook her head, not wanting to sign her name on the divorce papers that he handed her. This was the real deal, especially when she saw her husband's signature and stamp.

"Oh come on. Don't make things hard for us. Look, even Yong Liwei has already agreed to what I want." The document in her hand began to tremble. How could Yong Liwei allow Cian to do this to them?

Lu Mengjie thought that her husband would at least put up a fight and yet, what was this?

"Well? What are you waiting for?" for new novels

Lu Mengjie clearly remembered how she first met him together with his sister and Yong Liwei. She never thought Cian would take interest in her. He was so different back then... or maybe, it was because she never knew him at all. A small chuckle was heard from him. "Why you ask? Well, that's because you're the only one for me. From the first time I met you, I knew that you'll grow up to be mine."

"You delusional motherfucker!" Oh how she wished she could scream those words to him but she held back. She was not his only hostage. If she angered him, she feared that he might end up doing something worse to Spider, if not him, then her. Cian could easily overpower her and do what he wanted but he never even tried to do so... not until the end of two weeks.

...

"What?! Why would you agree on divorcing her?" Bai Jingye asked in surprise after he found out that day that Yong Liwei had given the divorce papers to one of Cian's men.

They were currently inside the study room of Yong Liwei's penthouse.

"I can always remarry her." Despite the nonchalant tone in his voice and the lack of expression on his face, his eyes betrayed his real feelings. It was staring restlessly at the documents Xia Liqin gave him. Dark bags were noticed under his eyes. Anyone could tell that he didn't sleep a wink for days.

"R-remarry?" The other man looked at him in disbelief. Even if his plans would work out, it would only prove how crazy he was! How could Yong Liwei say those words so easily? Did their marriage mean nothing to him?

"My marriage with Mengjie is meaningless."

Bai Jingye furrowed his brows. He was about to open his mouth to argue back at him but was cut off when Yong Liwei continued. "I rather have her alive than save our marriage. My marriage with her will be meaningless without her beside me."

"..." He closed his mouth, wanting to take back the words that were about to roll out of his tongue. In the end, Bai Jingye couldn't help but agree with the other man's words.

Sighing, he turned his back to him. "We should get ready for tomorrow night. Everything is prepared. Once you meet Mengjie, you better explain things to her. I'm sure she'll misunderstand things once Cian shows her the divorce papers."

"I know."
