Would you like to divorce with me?

I raised an eyebrow and sighed.

"Qingwan, it's not that I don't trust you. If I recall correctly, this should be the twentieth time you've said you want a divorce to me."

Ever since I married into the Gu family, my second sister-in-law would cry and complain to me about her failed marriage almost every month.

Her husband was ignorant and frequently got drunk, and even frequented brothels...

Every single one of these things was unforgivable in my eyes.

Every time, my second sister-in-law would swear and promise that she would immediately divorce her husband, and I would fervently support her each time.

However, in just two days, they would quickly reconcile, and even show more love than before.

I couldn't understand, so I could only respect and bless them.

"This time is completely different!"

My second sister-in-law clenched her fists, gritting her teeth, and pulled me aside.

"Sister-in-law, you know, I am just a concubine's daughter of a sixth-rank official. I was abused by my stepmother before I got married, and now that I want a divorce, I have nowhere to go. So, even though my husband has many bad habits, I can tolerate it for the sake of a decent life. But this time, he actually forgot my mother's death anniversary because he was fooling around with his new concubine. When I confronted him, he casually said that my mother was just a lowly concubine, so what's the big deal about her death anniversary? At that moment, I finally realized that I couldn't continue living with him anymore. Even if you didn't mention divorce in front of my mother-in-law today, I have already made up my mind. Sister-in-law, do you think I am strange?"

I patted her shoulder and smiled, shaking my head.

I completely understood her.

No matter how tolerant and broad-minded a person is, they have their own bottom line.

My bottom line was to be loyal and never betray, and Xu Qingwan's bottom line was her mother.

Once the other person crossed the line, it would be difficult to turn back.

"Alright, then let's get a divorce together. Let's turn the Gu family upside down and live our lives with great enthusiasm!"

Xu Qingwan and I returned to our respective courtyards and agreed to meet at the main gate of the Gu family at 11 a.m. today.

When I got married, I entered through the main gate in a grand manner. Now that we were divorcing, we had to walk out with our heads held high.

"Ayue, have you gone crazy? How can you be so disrespectful to mother? Quick, come with me now and apologize to her!"

I had just returned to the inner courtyard when Gu Lin followed me back with a dark face, only to be shocked by the piled-up boxes.

"Ayue, what on earth are you trying to do?"

I turned around slowly and instructed the maidservants to neatly place my favorite vase into the box.

"Young Master Gu, are soon-to-be fathers so forgetful? I remember explaining it to you yesterday. We're getting a divorce, and now I'm going to move all my things out."

Gu Lin snorted coldly and grabbed my wrist.

"Ayue, throwing a tantrum is one thing, but have you ever thought about the consequences? Once we divorce, the cooperation between the Gu family and the Zhao family will immediately end. Your family's business in the south of the Yangtze River will become extremely difficult. Moreover, as a weak woman, how will you be able to survive after the divorce?"

"I know, but if the Zhao family's business goes down, what does it have to do with me?"

I shrugged indifferently.

"Gu Lin, even after two years of marriage, you still don't understand me at all. My father gave me my mother's possessions before I got married, so he has no power over me. Besides, he had a stroke and has been bedridden for half a year. Now, the head of the Zhao family is my detestable stepbrother, even if they expand their business overseas in the future, they won't give me any share. So, why should I care about the fate of the Zhao family? Gu Lin, don't act clever, you can't threaten me."

After saying that, I raised my hand and gave the order. Several bodyguards who had been waiting in the shadows rushed up and pinned Gu Lin to the ground, just like a little chick.

I took out a handkerchief and leisurely wiped the spot on my wrist that Gu Lin had touched, then kicked him heavily.

"Your mother returned the items she received from me, and now it's your turn."
