Chapter 503: Chapter 504: Reluctant to Let Go
He could no longer withstand such a blow, crying and laughing like a madman.
What had he done in his past life to end up with a mother like this in the present one?
His mom had cherished him from childhood, treating him the best. He could never have dreamt that she would hurt and manipulate him like this.
Seeing Zhang Heyuan’s tear-streaked face and mad laughter, Mother Zhang panicked. She grabbed onto Zhang Heyuan’s arm, patting his chest and back to soothe him, “Ah Yuan, don’t scare mom, don’t be like this. Mom knows she was wrong, mom will apologize to Qiao Yi. Mom was just confused for a moment, mom won’t dare to do it again in the future!”
Mother Zhang let go of Zhang Heyuan, crawling on her knees to Qiao Yi, persistently kowtowing to her, “Yiyi, mom was wrong, mom won’t dare again in the future. Please forgive mom this once, I beg you, don’t divorce Ah Yuan, he won’t be able to bear it if you leave him!”
Just now when she bowed to Qiao Yi, all the onlookers criticized Qiao Yi.
But this time, if she bowed to Qiao Yi again, the onlookers would only spit on her and say she deserved it.
The crowd of onlookers was growing. Ye Xingbei furrowed her brows and told Gu Chi, “Xiao Chi, get the divorce agreement.”
Gu Chi respectfully nodded, fetched the divorce agreement, and handed it to Ye Xingbei.
Ye Xingbei shoved the divorce agreement and pen into Qiao Yi’s hand, “Yiyi, sign it.”
Qiao Yi was trembling and crying, but she still managed to sign her name on the divorce agreement.
“Sign it immediately! If you dare to delay for a day, not only will I make you leave empty-handed, but also your mom will be sued and go to jail!” Ye Xingbei shoved the signed divorce agreement onto Zhang Heyuan’s face and told Gu Chi, “Xiao Chi, keep an eye on him.”
Gu Chi nodded obediently, “Of course Young Madam, I’ll take care of it, rest assured!”
Ye Xingbei nodded and began to walk out with Qiao Yi leaning on her shoulder,” Yiyi, let’s go home and wait for the news.”
Ye Xingbei left the Civil Affairs Bureau with Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi looked around helplessly, but couldn’t find Gu Junzhu and Qiao Zui.
She felt utterly heartbroken and could hardly stand.
“They left earlier,” Ye Xingbei patted Qiao Yi’s shoulder, “Given that they were willing to come today, it means that they still care about you. They are just angry right now. You should try to appease them more in the future.”
The book was right – all men were children!
The uncle and nephew had similarities in certain aspects, such as their temperaments!
Qiao Yi nodded, her voice choked with sobs. “I understand, Auntie, this was all my fault. I realize my mistake. I will change and take better care of Xiao Zui in the future, and respect grandfather and uncle.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
It would be fine if you only respected your grandfather. Your uncle is still in his twenties, why does your use of the word respect sound so inappropriate?
Inside the Civil Affairs Bureau, Gu Chi squatted in front of Zhang Heyuan, “President Zhang, don’t dawdle. Sign the divorce agreement fast, so that I can complete my mission.”
With trembling hands, Zhang Heyuan picked up the divorce agreement from the ground, going through it line by line, from start to finish.
The house belongs to Qiao Yi now, and he and his mother need to move out.
The car was his.
The company and savings, he got twenty percent, and Qiao Yi got eighty percent.
He knew that this was the same divorce agreement from before.
If they were to draft another agreement after Qiao Yi had found out his mother had been secretly giving her contraception, he and his mother would no doubt be left penniless.
However, at the moment, he wasn’t far from being penniless.
All his years of work and struggle, destroyed overnight, brought back to square one.
If possible, he really didn’t want to sign.
The things he was most reluctant to give up weren’t these external possessions, but Qiao Yi.
