Chapter 16 – Divorce Agreement?

Having someone pry into your corner right in front of your face is really frustrating. Ruan Xia didn’t even feel like eating the strawberries she took out of the fridge. She gazed at Fu Cheng’an with a sad expression that conveyed more than just feeling wronged.

Come on, Fu Cheng’an is her future husband, for heaven’s sake.

A husband can have money and not come home, but he can’t fool around outside. That’s the bottom line.

Ruan Xia : “I don’t want to play anymore. I won’t play games from now on, wuwuwu.”

Fu Cheng’an moved his fingers on his phone and took a step back, creating some distance between himself and the girl who was chatting to him in the game.

Ruan Xia : “Gege, you are being considerate, will it embarrass the elder sister??”

The girl in the game, with ID “I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother” who was called “elder sister,” also stepped back awkwardly, feeling a bit embarrassed. “Sister, don’t be angry. You are the most compatible couple in the game. When I first came here, he wasn’t wearing the couple skin, and his voice was too good. I thought he was single. How about this, I’ll add you as a friend, and we can play games together when I’m free.”

I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother felt more and more embarrassed as she thought about it. “Don’t quarrel because of me, it’s really my fault, my fault.”

Ruan Xia : “How could I quarrel with my Gege? Gege, am I right? It’s just that I’m thinking, if one day, there’s another sister who doesn’t understand anything and takes a fancy to my Gege, and my Gege follows her, what should I do?”

Fu Cheng’an : “……..”

The game is about to start, and Ruan Xia directly found a seat and sat down. “I feel so sad when I think about this.”

Although I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother knew that Ruan Xia is being a green tea, Ruan Xia’s voice is so damn sweet that even she, a girl, is moved.

“Who wouldn’t like you? Those who don’t like you must be blind. Don’t be sad, I’ll carry you to victory later, okay?”

“Sister, you’re so nice.”

Fu Cheng’an glanced at Ruan Xia who was eating strawberries, “Turn off the mic.”

Ruan Xia : “Okay, Gege, I’ll listen to you. Don’t run away with Sister.”

I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother : “If he runs away, you just break his legs. If he still won’t like you when you’re like this, he’s asking too much. It’s so annoying. If I were a man, we’d start an online romance right now!”

Fu Cheng’an took Ruan Xia’s phone and turned off her game mic. He glanced at her friend requests and couldn’t scroll to the bottom, but there were at least a few hundred.

Ruan Xia : “Gege~”

Fu Cheng’an shook his body and handed her back the phone with a cold face. “Are you still playing?”

Ruan Xia : “I’m not playing anymore. How could you do this to me? It was clearly your fault, and yet you treat me like this! I did nothing wrong. I woke up and my Hubby didn’t recognize me, ignored me, and stood so close to another woman, like an unmarried man, a man without a girlfriend!”

“It’s just a game.”

“What’s wrong with the game? When she stuck to you, couldn’t you have avoided her? I know you don’t like me anymore. You don’t want to be my Hubby anymore. Saying you’ll take me home is just a brush-off. Our home isn’t here. It’s in a big estate!”

Yes, that was how the script was written. Her husband was rich, and they lived in a big estate.

With red eyes and tears in her eyes, Ruan Xia said, “I want to go back.”

Fu Cheng’an: “What are you making a fuss about, Ruan Xia? I’ve already closed the game mic and I’m standing far away from her.”

Ruan Xia: “How could you think I’m making a fuss? It’s all my fault, you’re not the same person you used to be!”

Hearing Ruan Xia’s words, Fu Cheng’an pursed his lips. “I was never the person you thought I was.”

Going downstairs, Ruan Xia wiped her tears indiscriminately and hailed a cab. Instead of going to Jiangyue Palace, she directly booked a hotel online with her phone.

She has to act fast now. She had always been confident because she knew that Fu Cheng’an was the male lead of a no-CP novel. Although he had gone on blind dates before, none of the women were suitable. But now, if his blind date really appeared, could Ruan Xia remain indifferent?

Clearly, that was impossible.

Everyone knew that Fu Cheng’an was the diamond king in the wealthy circles, and a highly sought-after partner for a business marriage. Those blind date partners, just like Ruan Xia, put in a lot of effort to win him over. Perhaps she was no longer special to him, and in comparison, Fu Cheng’an might think that those blind date partners were more suitable for marriage?

After all, Ruan Xia didn’t want to compete with them for a man. She liked her current state very much.

Ruan Xia was determined to win over Fu Cheng’an before he went on his blind date.

Anyway, Fu Cheng’an must never go on a blind date.

Ruan Xia rubbed her red eyes, then she added I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother as a friend.

[I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother : Is everything okay? Did you two have a fight?]

[Ruan Xia : It’s okay, I don’t blame you, Sister.]

[I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother : No, it’s my fault. It’s all my fault.]

Ruan Xia was momentarily stunned, suddenly feeling that this person’s reaction was normal.

Perhaps because she had been beautiful since she was young, and had some tricks up her sleeve, she always got what she wanted. Fu Cheng’an was the first tough nut she had encountered.

But she was determined to crack open this tough nut.

After arriving at the hotel, I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother played games together with Ruan Xia. During this time, she wanted to ask about Ruan Xia’s relationship with her Gege several times, but couldn’t bring herself to ask. She could only diligently play with Ruan Xia and give her the best gaming experience.

I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother said, “I have a younger brother who is very good-looking. If you don’t like your Gege in the future, you can find me and I’ll introduce my younger brother to you.”

Ruan Xia sniffled, “No need, I only like my Gege.”

I_Like_1.85m_Handsome_Brother said, “That jerk is really blind. Doesn’t he know how to appreciate a beautiful woman?”

This time, Ruan Xia didn’t go to work without informing Assistant Chen in advance and even took a cold war posture with Fu Cheng’an. As a result, Assistant Chen was puzzled and asked about it on WeChat, considering that the two had a good relationship as gaming partners during this period.

[Assistant Chen : Are you not coming to work today?]

[Ruan Xia : I’m not going, so as not to make myself feel uncomfortable.]

[Ruan Xia : Thank you for taking care of me during this time.]

Assistant Chen felt that the relationship between Ruan Xia and his boss Mr. Fu had probably collapsed, but he was not surprised. After all, Ruan Xia could call Fu Cheng’an Hubby every day, and even openly came to the company to work as a secretary.

Assistant Chen didn’t know how to comfort Ruan Xia, so he directly sent her a red envelope.

[Ruan Xia : ??? ]

[Assistant Chen : You’ve worked hard during this time.]

After carefully thinking about it, Ruan Xia realized that she had indeed worked hard during this time, after all, she had to go to bed early, get up early, and not stay up late for work.

Looking at the empty workstation, Fu Cheng’an stopped at Ruan Xia’s desk and asked, “Did she take another day off?”

Assistant Chen replied, “She didn’t ask for leave, but looking at Miss Ruan’s intention, she seems to be resigning.”

Fu Cheng’an : “Since she’s quitting, put away the desk.”

Assistant Chen : “Understood, Mr. Fu.”

When following Fu Cheng’an into his office, Assistant Chen glanced back at Ruan Xia’s desk. It seemed that Mr. Fu was really ruthless.

The top executives of Fu Corporation all noticed that Mr. Fu was in an especially bad mood today. When they made a mistake before, they found it difficult to face him. Now, when they makes a mistake or he isn’t satisfied with a plan, it’s more than difficult.

When Mr. Fu gave a cold laugh, they all wanted to kneel down before him.

Ruan Xia hadn’t come to work for several days, and Fu Cheng’an’s face was getting increasingly cold. It was obvious that he was not in a good mood.

When Zhou Zhiyuan came over, he felt the oppressive atmosphere here, especially with Fu Cheng’an’s secretaries. It was like someone had put them under 24-hour surveillance. They worked without any slack, and the only sounds were the tapping of keyboards and the rustling of papers.

Zhou Zhiyuan asked Assistant Chen, “What’s going on? He’s been acting weird these past few days. He’s canceled several dinner appointments, and he doesn’t even respond to me when I suggest bringing my sister-in-law to dinner.

Assistant Chen wanted to shut Zhou Zhiyuan up quickly, but still smiled on the surface, “Maybe our Mr. Fu has been busy with work recently.”

Zhou Zhiyuan nodded, “What about sister-in-law? Why don’t you bring her over?”

Assistant Chen was embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.

When Fu Cheng’an came in, he glanced at Zhou Zhiyuan without saying anything. Zhou Zhiyuan didn’t think there was anything wrong, as Fu Cheng’an had always been like this. He sat down on the sofa casually and said, “Do you know, Brother Fu, Jiang Hao’s fiancee wants to break up with him. Then Jiang Hao, for some reason, also became stubborn and agreed. He told me that the engagement couldn’t be broken, but as a result, his fiancee had already found her next suitor.”

Fu Cheng’an looked up at him.

Zhou Zhiyuan : “You must be shocked too, right? I was too. I didn’t expect that while they were still engaged, she had already found someone else to marry. She’s just waiting for the engagement to be officially terminated to start the new relationship. So, men should never be too stubborn. Even now, we don’t know what Jiang Hao plans to do. He talked about this at a dinner party yesterday, and asked us for advice, but you weren’t there.”

Fu Cheng’an’s throat moved slightly. “And then?”

Zhou Zhiyuan was speechless about this, “He said he just didn’t know what he did wrong, and he still insisted on reasoning with her. He still naively thinks that his fiancee is just angry with him. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Doesn’t he know that being stubborn won’t get him a wife?”

Assistant Chen : “Mr. Fu, this is what Miss Ruan asked me to give you.”

Fu Cheng’an’s lips curled slightly without leaving any trace. He opened the envelope, “Maybe not necessarily. Sometimes, you still have to reason with people. I can understand Jiang Hao to some extent. He…”

Fu Cheng’an stopped abruptly as he saw the divorce agreement in the envelope.
