Time Travel: The Queen's Coronation

The next morning, I dressed neatly, put on some beautiful makeup, and headed for the Shen family's house. At the entrance, Xu Jing and I met up and walked in together. The Shen family seemed incredibly enthusiastic, and the entire family was waiting for us.

Xu Jing opened the file bag and said, "I'll be straight to the point. I am Wei Qing's representative lawyer. I am here today to file for divorce from Shen Junhui. This is the divorce agreement!" After that, she handed the divorce agreement to Grandpa Shen.

Grandpa Shen took a look and put it down. "Xiaoqing, I know this is Ah Hui's fault! But do we really need to get to the point of divorce?"

"Grandpa, this is the answer I came up with after thinking about it for a long time!" I answered firmly.

"But you've only been married for a few months! And if it weren't for this incident, you'd still be traveling around the world on your honeymoon!"

"Grandpa! I know you love your grandson very much, but please put yourself in my shoes. I was betrayed by my husband during our honeymoon! After I found out, he not only didn't correct himself or admit his mistake, but instead kept making excuses to shirk responsibility and even acted as if he didn't care! The worst part is, after I left him, he immediately found another woman! A different woman! This kind of marriage! This kind of husband! There's no need for this!"

After I said that, Grandpa Shen also felt ashamed of Shen Junhui and glared at Shen Junhui fiercely.

"Then if Ah Hui promises not to do it again, can we avoid getting a divorce?" Mother Shen asked anxiously.

"It's impossible! It's impossible between him and me! Remember when he graduated and returned to Hong Kong? He made solemn promises to me before he came back, but he just turned around and didn't take it seriously, just playing around as usual! I gave him a chance back then! But this time he went even further! He cheated on me on our honeymoon! I even doubt whether he ever loved me, or if he just wanted to compete with Rong Zixuan or Li Zhanwen and that's why he approached me!"

"No, no! I really love you!" Shen Junhui anxiously refuted my words.

"Love or not doesn't matter anymore! You've hurt me too deeply! I'm getting a divorce!"

Mother Shen kicked Shen Junhui and signaled him to kneel down. Shen Junhui understood and knelt in front of me, saying, "Wife, I really know I was wrong! Please forgive me this time!"

"Just forgive him this time! If there's a next time, I'll castrate him!" Mother Shen scolded Shen Junhui in frustration.

Shen Junhui's eyes widened in shock, and he cautiously said to Shen's mother, "Mom, don't be so cruel! I'm your biological child!"

"Look at what you've done! And you dare to bargain!"

Shen Junhui looked at me aggrievedly, "Wife, look how much Mom favors you, I really don't dare to do it anymore!"

"Haven't you noticed? Every time you say 'I don't dare anymore' or 'I was wrong', you keep repeating it! You don't even realize where you're wrong, so you'll never correct it! Even if the king of heaven comes today, I'm going to divorce you!"

"I don't agree!" Shen Junhui said angrily.

"It's okay if you don't agree now! Then let's go to court! You were wrong to cheat on me first, and I've already compiled the evidence! If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no problem with the divorce. It just may take a little longer, but I can wait!"

"Xiaoqing! How about if I use Haoyang's shares to compensate you?" Grandpa Shen wanted to use the shares to change my mind about divorce.

"Grandpa, this isn't a question of money anymore! Shen Junhui has caused me so much mental harm! I thought he was my salvation, but I didn't expect him to push me into an even deeper abyss!"

Grandpa Shen and Mother Shen took turns playing the emotional and economic cards, constantly persuading me to withdraw the divorce agreement, promising Hui to discipline Shen Junhui well and that there would definitely not be a next time. Even though I was determined to divorce, Grandpa Shen and Mother Shen still persevered in persuading me, and even Father Shen, who rarely expressed his opinions, joined in the persuasion.

Xu Jing couldn't bear it any longer and took out a document. "Either Shen Junhui sign it today, or we go to court! This letter of guarantee is signed by Shen Junhui himself. Here's a copy!"

Grandpa Shen's face changed drastically after seeing it.

Shen Junhui snatched it over and looked at it, questioning dissatisfiedly, "This document is invalid! This is just a little game we played when we were picking up the bride! You forced me to sign it, but it doesn't count!"

"I let you read it, didn't I? I explained it to you point by point, didn't I? I also told you it was legally binding, didn't I? You agreed to it, didn't you? And you signed it yourself, didn't you?"

Xu Jing's repeated questions left Shen Junhui bewildered, and he could only stammer in response, "I, I thought, I thought this was just a game! You are a black-faced god to begin with, and I thought it was a wedding game you set up for me. How could I take it seriously? You are suspected of misleading me! This doesn't count!"

"If you hadn't betrayed Wei Qing, this letter of guarantee would have been nothing more than a piece of waste paper, and I would never have taken it out! But since you betrayed Wei Qing, this letter is the proof of her freedom! I set up this obstacle with this in mind, but I didn't expect it to be needed so soon!"

"This is unfair! You are setting a trap for me! This letter of guarantee is invalid!" Shen Junhui continued to protest.

"It's not up to you to decide whether a divorce is invalid or not! If you sign this divorce agreement today, I will destroy this guarantee! If you don't sign, we'll see you in court! The evidence of your infidelity is irrefutable, and the guarantee states that all your shares in Haoyang and all the property under your name will belong to Wei Qing. This means you'll be kicked out of the house, and it will easily cause fluctuations in Haoyang's stock price. Your Shen family's control over Haoyang may be loosened. I don't know if you want to sign the agreement today or let the judge make the decision!"

"You are scaring me! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Shen Junhui shouted at Xu Jing.

"Okay, let's go to court!" Xu Jing immediately packed up the documents.

"Wait a minute!" Grandpa Shen was very hesitant.

"Mr. Shen, do you have an answer?" Xu Jing asked.

"Can you give us some time to think about it?" Grandpa Shen asked in a low voice.

"That'll be one day then! We'll reveal the answer at this time tomorrow!"

"Can you give me a little more time?"

"No! Today is Wednesday, and we have a press conference on Friday! So we don't have much time left!"

"Can the press conference be postponed?"

"No! Mr. Shen, you already have the answer to this question, but you can't have your cake and eat it too!"

"Okay, then just one day!" Grandpa Shen reluctantly agreed to Xu Jing's request.

Xu Jing led me out of the Shen family's house. Shen Junhui wanted to chase after me, but Grandpa Shen called him back. There were still many reporters outside the Shen family's door. They asked us many questions, but we still didn't respond and asked them to wait until the press conference to ask them.

In the car, I was the first to speak, "Why didn't you tell me you had this letter of guarantee?"

"As your friend and a lawyer, I'm just using my professional knowledge to protect you!"

"I'm honored to have you as my friend!" I smiled with relief.

"It's my honor to meet someone as outstanding as you!"

"Will Shen Junhui sign it?"

"He may not sign it voluntarily, but he will definitely sign it in the end!"

"Do you think his grandfather will force him to sign?"

"That's for sure! Haoyang was built by his grandfather, how could he watch it fall into the hands of outsiders! And one of the important reasons why Mr. Shen chose you as his grandson's wife is your ability! He is counting on you to help Shen Junhui protect Haoyang. Shen Junhui can no longer be relied upon, so he can only pin his hopes on you, or even on your child with Shen Junhui! With such an excellent mother like you, the child he raises will definitely be excellent! There is nothing to worry about when taking over Haoyang!"

"You're thinking too far ahead! Shen Junhui is a Harvard graduate after all, so he's certainly capable! And all he needs to do is keep the business going! Even if he doesn't know anything, he can still hire some professional managers to do the work for him!"

"Do you think professional managers would be willing to be workers for their entire lives if they had access to Haoyang's resources? There's no guarantee that professional managers won't turn Haoyang's resources into their own and eventually go out on their own! In the end, Shen Junhui, the nominal ruler, would be sidelined! That's why the emperor is so wary of generals who hold military power, because the generals have already turned the soldiers given to them by the emperor into their own!"

"Have you read any history books recently?"

"Of course! I'll learn from you and get closer to you!"

"This child is teachable!" I teased Xu Jing, and Xu Jing also showed a long-lost smile.

A day later, Xu Jing and I showed up at Shen's house on time.

Shen Junhui stared at Xu Jing intently, and the next second he looked like he wanted to eat Xu Jing alive. He threw the divorce agreement on the table unhappily. Xu Jing checked it and wanted to take me away after finding that there was no problem.

"Xiaoqing, even if you and Ah Hui are divorced, you must come to see grandpa often!" Grandpa Shen said with tears in his eyes.

I smiled and replied, "Yes, Grandpa!"

"Having you call me grandpa, I feel at ease!"

"Xiaoqing, if you are free, let's have a meal and go shopping together!" Mother Shen said reluctantly, holding my hand.

"Yes, Mom!" I immediately retracted the second word "Mom" and said, "Yes, Mrs. Shen!"

"Calling me Madam Shen is too formal! Our relationship isn't that distant! If you want, you can still call me mom!"

I was embarrassed and didn't answer. Mother Shen compromised and said, "Then you can call me Auntie!"

"it is good!"

Mother Shen held my hand for a long time, unwilling to let go. Finally, Xu Jing played the bad guy and said goodbye to them, holding my hand and walking towards the door. But the next second, Shen Junhui also grabbed my hand, and I was held by them from the front and the back. Xu Jing ordered him to let go, but he refused. In the end, it was only when Grandpa Shen and Mother Shen ordered him to let go that he finally let go.

After returning home and relaxing for a while, I gathered my energy and prepared materials for tomorrow's press conference, so that tomorrow's press conference could bring this turmoil to a satisfactory end.
