Third Young Master Ye regarded Chu Wuyou in the eyes as he spoke in order to not miss her reaction.
If she was still in a daze then it should be easy to uncover the secret.
The woman held his gaze without blinking, as if in deep thought.
He thought something interesting was going to happen, seeing as her first reaction was to think carefully instead of arguing back right away.
Under his expectant gaze, she raised her head to reply in a tone laced with disappointment. âBut this is me. If youâre not happy with how I look, then we should just divorce right away.â
â...â
Third Young Master Ye really did not want to continue speaking with the woman anymore.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAre we still amending the agreement? If not, I might go to bed now. Iâm knackered.â Chu Wuyou was also getting upset.
She paused for a brief second. âTo be honest, I donât see the need for it.â
âWe must.â He forced these words through gritted teeth. This time around, he expressed his mind explicitly out of fear that she would blurt something irritating again. âThe reason we got married is for you to assist me in acquiring the stock ownership of Ye Company. Therefore, we cannot divorce if that aim isnât achieved. There shouldnât be an expiry limit.â
This was his true intention.
She was caught by surprise. Once again, she gave this some consideration before nodding. âYup, got it.â
A feeling of delight washed over him. Oh yes, he was in luck! She finally âunderstoodâ him this time.
However, it was only a fleeting moment of happiness. The womanâs voice rang in the air several seconds later. âYou mean we can divorce immediately after you acquire Ye Companyâs stock ownership. Right?â
The man was infuriated. It seemed that this woman was truly thinking about divorcing him at all times.
She really did not care about him.
âI shall write this down then?â She flashed him a smile, completely disregarding the indifference and rage written all over the manâs face.
âSure.â He decided to bear with her for now. Eventually, everything that she wrote would disappear in one monthâs time anyway.
Therefore, he allowed her to do it at her will.
However, he decided to sort out the affairs properly to ensure Elder Ye would not pass on the Ye Company to him.
To be frank, he was not bothered about inheriting the Ye Company.
Of course, he knew without a doubt that Elder Ye was unwilling to pass on the company to him as well, not to mention that he was extremely dissatisfied with having Chu Wuyou as the newest member to the family. In short, it was mission impossible for the woman to achieve this goal.
It was exactly because of this that he was not too concerned.
Anyhow, he still needed a sure-fire plan just in case.
The woman began writing seriously at his permission. In fact, she was too tipsy to remember this condition already existed in the original agreement.
âWhat if youâre not in Jin City when I succeed in acquiring the stocks? How could we proceed with the divorce if I canât find you?â She suddenly thought of an important question.
â...â
Third Young Master Ye could not follow her train of thought. He did not understand what she was trying to say.
Why would she not be able to find him? They were husband and wife that lived together every day. Why would that even happen?
