Chapter 27 – The Divorce (1)
Shu Yan moved into Shu Jianyang’s home with her two children, and Shu Jianyang moved to his friend’s place. Even though they were cousins, they were both adults. It’d be awkward to live together. He was just a single man and could stay anywhere.
Ye Zhiqiang did not find her at the hotel and spent a long time looking for Shu Jianyang. As he was looking for him, he started to cool down.
"Where’s Shu Yan?"
"What do you want to talk to her about?" Shu Jianyang asked as he lifted his brows.
"What was that with the pictures." Shu Yan would never had been able to accomplish all those without Shu Jianyang’s help.
A stack of photos was tossed in front of Ye Zhiqiang, "That was just making an example out of her. Next time it would be you."
Ye Zhiqiang let out a sigh of relief when he saw that he could not be identified in any of the pictures. But then, his anger rose up again.
"What does Shu Yan want?"
"Simple. Get a divorce and for you walk away penniless," Shu Jianyang said as he leaned back and propped his feet up. He rocked his feet as he casually said, "If I were you, I’ll accept her
Shu Jianyang was just saying this, but he could tell Ye Zhiqiang was seriously considering his suggestion. Was this really true love?
"Where is Shu Yan? She needs to be here for this." Ye Zhiqiang didn’t trust Shu Jianyang.
The three of them met again at the tea shop. Shu Yan looked at Ye Zhiqiang and thought to herself that this was, indeed, the world of a novel after all. How else would a scum like him be willing to give up everything for true love?
"All the money in the house, the house itself, and the car will all go to you. I’ll cash out my company. That will leave me more or less penniless." When Shu Yan obtained all the evidence earlier, Ye Zhiqiang had looked into all sorts of ways. He couldn’t transfer his assets. He had consulted with a lawyer; that would be illegal for him to do so. He couldn’t ask Shu Yan’s family to interfere either.
There was a difference between the son-in-law being rich versus the daughter being rich. If the Shu’s knew that they could have all his assets after the divorce, they’d only tell Shu Yan to get one faster.
He truly didn’t have a lot of cash on him; all of them were tied up in his jobs. The only things of value were the few houses and the cars. He needed his company; that’s his livelihood. He could borrow money or take out a loan and pay cash to Shu Yan. Once he finished his two ongoing projects, he would have made the money back already.
Shu Yan weighed her options quickly. The ball was only in her court because 1) she blind-sided Ye Zhiqiang and caught him off guard and 2) she had the backing of Shu Jianyang. He may be able to help her once or twice, but she couldn’t keep on bugging him indefinitely.
