Ignoring Zhou Gang, Song Ling turned to the standing Feng Xue and said, “Sit.”
Feng Xue shook her head and lightly chuckled, “I’d rather not, President Song. We’re here to apologize, so sitting would be inappropriate…”
Before Feng Xue could finish speaking, Zhou Gang beside her sat down abruptly. At the same time, he enthusiastically exclaimed, “Song Corporation really is different! Even the office chairs are more comfortable than the ones in my own home!”
Feng Xue’s face turned ashen. She reached out to pull Zhou Gang up, “Stand up!”
Zhou Gang protested, “Why? President Song said we could sit!”
Unable to hold back, Feng Xue kicked Zhou Gang in the leg.
Having been scolded at home for his infidelity, Zhou Gang had taken it. But now, in public, and with so many eyes on him, his face burned with shame.
Grim-faced, Zhou Gang rose, ready to strike Feng Xue.
Zhao Xuan quickly stepped forward to intervene. “Mr. Zhou, this is Song Corporation, not a place where you can get into a brawl. If you must resort to violence, don’t blame us for being inhospitable!”
Zhou Gang, hearing this, reluctantly withdrew his hand but shot Feng Xue a menacing look.
Having been married to Zhou Gang for many years, Feng Xue had maintained a veneer of marital harmony. She never expected that Zhou Gang would dare to raise a hand against her.
Observing this, Song Ling inquired, “Have you considered divorce?”
Feng Xue was taken aback, instinctively shaking her head.
Song Ling continued, “Zhou Gang has betrayed you, and not just with one person. Are you sure you want to stay with him?”
Feng Xue furrowed her brows, puzzled, “Not just one person?”
Zhou Gang became anxious when he heard Song Ling’s words. Grabbing Feng Xue’s arm, he began to drag her towards the door, “Honey, 1 just remembered that I left the stove on at home. Let’s go back and check!”
Feng Xue was no fool; she sensed something was amiss and a theory came into her mind.
Shaking off Zhou Gang’s grip, she turned to Song Ling, “President Song, do you know something else?”
Song Ling handed Feng Xue a file from the desk.
Zhou Gang, seeing this, was about to stop them, but Zhao Xuan, ever vigilant, immediately stepped in to block him.
Zhou Gang, having spent years on frivolous pursuits, struggled in vain against Zhao Xuan’s hold, his face turning red from the effort.
After scanning through the documents, Feng Xue flung the file at Zhou Gang’s face and declared, “We’re getting a divorce!”
Zhou Gang was dumbfounded.
At that moment, he abruptly realized that his wealth was attributable to his relationship with Feng Xue, who had fallen for him, and after marriage, the Feng family had to compromise, aiding him in establishing his company and connecting him with various influential networks in the entertainment industry, which propelled him to prominence as a well-known domestic director.
Should he divorce Feng Xue, he would be plunged into poverty, with no chance of a resurgence.
As this realization sunk in, he felt a chill run through him. Bursting forth with newfound energy, he knelt before Feng Xue, “Honey, 1 don’t want a divorce. I was wrong, and it won’t happen again.”
Feng Xue kicked him away, her voice icy, “You’ve deceived me more than once, twice, or three times. How dare you ask for my forgiveness now?”
“Prepare the divorce papers. We’ll meet at the civil affairs bureau tomorrow. If you disagree, I don’t mind taking this to court,” she added.
Zhou Gang slumped to the floor, pale-faced, “It’s over, all of it is over…”
Song Ling concluded, “You may leave.”
Regaining his composure, Zhou Gang glared at Song Ling, “It’s all your fault! You’re the one who created discord between us. How could you be so evil?”
Song Ling glanced at him dismissively, “If you hadn’t cheated, how would we be in this situation?”
Zhou Gang sneered, “As far as I know, didn’t President Song also cheat within marriage? Even ended up divorcing Miss Gu Dai if I recall… Gu Dai…” Suddenly, it clicked for Zhou Gang. The person he had targeted while helping Wei Ling was named Gu Dai.
What he had failed to understand before was suddenly clear..
