âGrandpa, anyway, Iâm going to be with you for a lifetime. Also, I wonât get involved in any emotional affairs until I have finished my studies and become completely independent,â Hai Xiaotang said seriously.
Hai Zhiyuan nodded, âThatâs okay, youâre still young and can afford to delay it for a few more years.â
Hai Xiaotang smiled and didnât say anything.
Sheâs not going to tell Grandpa about her life-long plan to stay single.
Dongfang Yu was busy at the company all day.
When he returned home in the evening and had just reached the doorway of the living room, he suddenly stopped.
The servant noticed he appeared to be lost in thought and found it a bit strange.
âYoung Master, dinner is ready,â the servant reminded him.
Without any change in his expression, Dongfang Yu took off his suit and dropped it onto the sofa, âPack up all of Young Mistressâs things.â
âWhat?â The servant was taken aback.
Dongfang Yu didnât repeat himself and headed straight towards the dining room.
He had only taken a few bites of his meal when the servant came over with the cordless phone, âYoung Master, itâs your wife on the line.â
Dongfang Yu casually took the phone, and He Meilianâs voice came from the other end of the line.
âYuyu, Xiaotangâs grandpa said you guys are getting a divorce, is that true?â
âHmm,â Dongfang Yu quietly confirmed.
He Meilian was surprised, âWiry are you guys getting divorced? Is it your idea? Yuyu, Xiaotang is young, sheâs still a child, and she likes you so much. You should be more tolerant of her. Any issues can be gradually resolved, thereâs no need to resort to divorce.â
âItâs Hai Xiaotangâs decision,â Dongfang Yu casually said.
âWhat?â He Meilian exclaimed in surprise, âXiaotang wants a divorce?â
Dongfang Yu didnât answer, implying his consent.
He Meilian suddenly laughed, âIf itâs Xiaotangâs decision, then itâs easy. As long as you refuse to divorceâ¦â
âI agree!â
He Meilian paused, and then suddenly sighed, âIs it true that you guys are fated to be apart? I thought that as time goes by, you would develop some feelings for her. As long as there were some feelings, I believed you would definitely not divorce her. It seems I thought too much.â
âGetting divorced now is better for both of us!â Dongfang Yu grimly replied, speaking his true feelings, and not pretending.
Now that heâs starting to like Xiaotang, he should let go.
Otherwise⦠heâs afraid things may get out of his control.
He Meilian didnât know what he was thinking, and assumed that he still didnât like Xiaotang, âI understand, butâ¦â
âIâll compensate her. However much she wants, lean afford,â Dongfang Yu interrupted.
â⦠Okay, we can discuss this matter later.â
Dongfang Yu hung up the phone, and continued his meal. The calm in his eyes was frightening.
The next morning, before Zhang Mom came back to pick up her luggage, all their belongings were sent over by Dongfang Yuâs people.
Hai Xiaotang slept comfortably last night.
She woke up early the next morning, opened the sliding door, and walked out to the balcony to stretch. Suddenly, she saw a pile of luggage in the garden downstairs.
Zhang Mom and two servants were about to move the luggage inside.
âZhang Mom, whatâs that?â Hai Xiaotang leaned over the railing and asked, puzzled.
Zhang Mom looked up, âThese are the belongings that the young master had sent over.â
ââ¦.â Hai Xiaotang nodded, without saying anything.
She probably understood Dongfang Yuâs intention.
His proactive returning of her belongings indicates his determination to completely sever ties with her.
Thatâs good, they can both let go of each other, no longer clinging to past grudges, and start life anew.
