The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao
Chapter 9 Divorce is Real
The office door was closed, isolating Lin Qingran and Gu Moxuan from the outside world.
The atmosphere in the small office was unusually heavy.
This was the first time Gu Moxuan had come to Lin Qingran's office in three years of marriage.
Although it was Lin Xiaoruo who made the suggestion, Gu Moxuan also harbored a slight curiosity deep down about the place where she worked day and night.
Lin Qingran saw Gu Moxuan standing straight in her office, the air pressure around him seemed to be lowered by his presence.
So, she fearlessly raised her eyes and spoke slowly.
"I don't want to talk to you about Lin Xiaoruo's matter. If you're here to deliver the divorce papers, then I can talk to you."
As she finished speaking, Gu Moxuan's handsome face suddenly turned cold and stern.
Lin Qingran seemed oblivious to his suppressed anger.
A pair of exquisite eyes stared straight at him without the slightest hesitation or fear.
Gu Moxuan frowned, his face cold, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, before speaking in a chilling tone.
"Do you think Attorney Liu would dare to draft an agreement without my consent?"
"You disagree?" A mocking glint flashed in Lin Qingran's eyes, showing no surprise or much emotion.
What reason do you have to disagree?
What reason could he possibly have to disagree?
Gu Moxuan fell silent, his face showing a mixture of embarrassment and anger.
He had no reason to disagree.
But there's no reason to agree!
"Lin Qingran, you only lasted three years. You can't even hold on to the position of Mrs. Gu?"
"Isn't this the seat you fought so hard for? If you want to sit here, I'll let you sit here forever."
Lin Qingran paused, looked up at the angry man in front of her, and felt a mix of emotions.
"Being Mrs. Gu is too difficult, so I want to give it up."
Her lips were slightly curved, and her eyes were cold and indifferent.
"Gu Moxuan, unless you fall in love with me, you have no excuse not to divorce me, do you?"
Looking into his angry eyes, she felt a strange sense of anticipation rising within her.
However, the man suddenly smiled gently, his anger vanished, and his deep eyes revealed no emotion.
"There are many excuses for not divorcing you, but the one that could never be falling in love with you."
His words were like a thorn, piercing straight into her heart, bringing with them a bitter and unbearable pain.
However, she quickly concealed her emotions.
A faint smile appeared at the corners of her eyes and brows.
"If there's no love, then it's even easier."
"Very few people know about our relationship now. If we get divorced, it will be good for you, for me, and for Lin Xiaoruo. It's a win-win-win situation."
Gu Moxuan's handsome face suddenly darkened.
The anger that had just been suppressed was reignited by her nonchalant attitude.
He knew perfectly well that the woman in front of him had no other thoughts on her mind except divorce!
But he just didn't want her to have her way.
"You want to win? But I have no reason to let you win."
"I said, you started this game, but I'm the one who can press the end button."
As Gu Moxuan spoke, he placed his hands on the desk and leaned closer to his cold, handsome face.
His anger turned into indifference, and his gaze enveloped the little woman before him.
"Qingran, you can't afford the consequences of divorcing me. The Lin family needs me, just as my grandmother needs you as her granddaughter-in-law."
Lin Qingran took a deep breath, feeling a tightness in her chest.
The warm breath he exhaled as he spoke enveloped her face, carrying a strange allure.
For a moment, she almost lost her will.
After a few seconds, she looked up, her eyes filled with a competitive spirit.
"If President Gu refuses to divorce, Lin Xiaoruo's reputation might not be very good if she enters this industry."
He's not the only one who knows how to threaten.
If the Lin family was her Achilles' heel, then Lin Xiaoruo was Gu Moxuan's Achilles' heel.
Three years ago, she had already crossed him, and three years later, she dared to do the same again.
Gu Moxuan's deep eyes turned serious as he looked at Lin Qingran, then suddenly gave a low laugh.
However, there was a powerful sense of oppression in that laughter.
"It seems that you've gained a lot of skills in your three years in the workplace. You've learned to progress step by step."
"How could I, Gu Moxuan, allow you to harm the people I want to protect so easily?"
“If you lay a finger on her, your elder brother’s supporters will be almost wiped out.”
Lin Qingran took a deep breath, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes, before speaking in a gentle and elegant manner.
“Your grandmother doesn’t seem to like Lin Xiaoruo very much. If my older brother is unable to be re-elected because of you, I think the old lady will always stand on my side between Lin Xiaoruo and me.”
"The old lady hasn't been feeling well lately, I think you should know that."
Gu Moxuan's dark eyes narrowed slightly, his face turning cold and stern.
"Lin Qingran, don't go too far!"
Lin Qingran smiled silently in response to his anger.
"If you don't want to divorce me, that's fine too, as long as my brother's career isn't affected in any way, I'll cover for you with the old lady's side."
Gu Moxuan frowned, his expression cold.
"Lin Qingran, you're quite the schemer. The divorce is just a pretense; your real goal is to keep your brother's position, isn't it? I really underestimated you."
Lin Qingran smiled and said, "No, the divorce is true, but so is the desire to protect my brother's position."
