726 Dogfigh
Seeing Ning Shuqian sitting down on the sofa crying incessantly, Wen Haowen pitied her slightly. However, thinking about her cumbersome hysteria condition, he hardened his heart.
Although the doctor said that Ning Shuqian’s condition was not so serious and had yet to turn into full-blown hysteria, he couldn’t be sure when it would really happen in the future. Come that time, he wouldn’t be able to divorce her even if he wanted to. How could he, Wen Haowen, have a mentally ill wife—did he still want to continue staying in the circle? More importantly, hysteria was a scary illness that would cause the sufferer to become mad and ruthless when it acted up. What if one day she hurt him?
He couldn’t help but recall the day when Ning Shuqian lost control of her emotions—she had bitten everyone she saw like a madwoman. His mother was bitten by her on the arm and even bled. Till now, a mild mark of her teeth still remained on her arm.
Wen Haowen looked at her and spoke in a softer voice, “Shuqian, haven’t you been saying that you love me and will even die for me? I don’t need you to die for me now, I only need you to sign on the divorce agreement!”
Now that the Old Man was already extremely unhappy with him and he had already revealed his intentions to the Old Man and Wen Xinya, if he couldn’t divorce Ning Shuqian smoothly, he would lose his footing before the Old Man and Wen Xinya. It was worth it to sacrifice a Ning Shuqian to win the Old Man’s heart back, after all.
“Wen Haowen, how can you be so heartless to me?” Ning Shuqian shook all over and couldn’t help but grit her teeth. She didn’t regret her confession towards Wen Haowen previously. She recalled how, for Wen Haowen, she even ended up with such an illness which made her lose her mind. Now, she had caused her own downfall as it had turned into the excuse that Wen Haowen was using to force her to divorce him.
Wen Haowen walked up to Ning Shuqian and said in the low and soft voice, “Shuqian, it’s not that I’m heartless, it’s just that you’re already not suited to be Madam Wen anymore. Don’t worry, after our divorce, I’ll definitely make it up to you.”
His original divorce agreement only gave Ning Shuqian a property and took back all the jewelry, properties, capital, and shares that he had given to her all these years.
However, now that Ning Shuqian’s words moved him, he felt that he could make it up to her more to hasten the divorce.
With teary and blurry eyes, Ning Shuqian looked at the divorce agreement handed to her. Her hazy vision totally couldn’t make out the words on the papers, only the huge, black words of “Divorce Agreement” jumped out at her and made her pupils constrict non-stop. “Wen Haowen, you…”
Wen Haowen looked at her looking all hopeless and said in a low voice, “Shuqian, we’ve been man and wife for many years. Ask yourself, how have I been treating you? Now that our fate as husband and wife is over, why don’t we part amicably!”
Ning Shuqian held onto the divorce agreement in her hands tightly. The obviously thin papers felt like they weighed a ton in her hands. As she used all her strength to hold onto them, her body couldn’t help but tremble.
Wen Haowen said nicely, “Look… We’ve been married for many years and I’ve never treated you poorly. I can transfer a piece of property under my name to you, I won’t retract the cards that I’ve previously given you, and I’ll also not take back all the jewelry and other gifts that I’ve given you all these years…”
As she watched the lips that closed and parted incessantly before her saying things that broke her heart, Ning Shuqian suddenly tore up the divorce agreement in her hands to shreds in a fit, threw them onto Wen Haowen’s face, and said in a sharp voice, “Wen Haowen, let me tell you—I won’t divorce you, I don’t agree to the divorce…”
Wen Haowen had a fright. Thinking that Ning Shuqian had lost it again, he took a few steps back instinctively. “Shuqian, we can talk things out properly. If you’re not satisfied with the content of the divorce agreement, we can contact the lawyer again…”
Agitated, Ning Shuqian interrupted him and said angrily, “Wen Haowen, you heartless creature. Let me tell you… the divorce will happen over my dead body.”
Chided by Ning Shuqian like this, Wen Haowen instantly fumed up. “Ning Shuqian, you’re rejecting my kindness. I’m only discussing with you nicely on account of our years of marriage. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, I don’t have to be nice to you anymore.”
Ning Shuqian pointed her finger at Wen Haowen’s nose and scolded angrily. “Wen Haowen, for whom did I end up like this today? You’ve hardened your heart, raised a divorce with me without caring for our relationship, and still talk about our years of marriage… you’re absolutely heartless.”
Wen Haowen couldn’t help but become angry. “I’m heartless! Ning Shuqian… Previously, I’ve ignored everyone’s words and married you, a woman without a clean background and still lugging a child from your previous marriage. Without me… how could you, Ning Shuqian, still be who you are today? I’m heartless…”
Ning Shuqian sneered and said, “Previously, when you married me, you could overcome all difficulties. Today, why are you hardening your heart and asking me for a divorce? It’s all because you’ve lost your feelings for me and I’ve lost my value for you, that’s why you’re kicking me aside. If this isn’t being heartless, what is it?”
Previously, Mo Yunyao had died suddenly and Wen Haowen had been chided by everyone for being shameless. It was true that he had insisted on marrying her out of his deep feelings towards her, but it was also because he had lost all his reputation in the circle and wanted to use her to make him look like a sentimental husband to win some hearts back. Thus… although she had been married to him for many years without giving birth to a child, he had tried his best to bear with it and act like a good husband.
Wen Haowen couldn’t hold his expression any longer as the veins on his forehead throbbed incessantly. “Ning Shuqian, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. If you’re insistent on not signing on the divorce agreement, we’ll go to court.”
He didn’t want things between him and Ning Shuqian to become so ugly either.
Ning Shuqian shrieked. “We’ll go to court then—who’s afraid? Let everyone know that you, Wen Haowen, are a heartless and ruthless creature who cheated on your first wife, Mo Yunyao, previously, causing her to go into early labor and die, and now you’re abandoning your second wife. Let everyone see your true colors.”
Wen Haowen’s face became twisted as if he wanted to eat someone alive. “Ning Shuqian, shut up. You slut, you think that I don’t dare to go to court with you? Let me tell you… I’ve inquired with the lawyer—you’re the one in the wrong in our divorce. Even if we go to court, it’s certain that I’ll win. Come that time, I’ll make sure you don’t get even a penny from me. I’ll make sure you lose everything!”
Ning Shuqian’s face panicked, but the anger made her lose her mind. “Wen Haowen, you heartless, cold-blooded dog.”
Wen Haowen didn’t care about her cursing. “With your reputation in the circle right now and your condition of losing your mind, even if I divorce you, everyone won’t think that I’m at fault. Instead, they’ll think that I know how to turn back from my wrong path!”
Ning Shuqian was utterly stunned!
