Chapter 602: Leaving with Nothing but the Shirt on One's Back

Zhou Zining was on the edge, planning to start off with a fierce cold shoulder as she had done before, and if that failed, to turn soft.

But just as this thought surfaced, she heard a slight noise behind her.

Bo Shuxian extinguished his cigarette, slowly stood up, and exhaled the last breath of smoke through his nostrils.

He walked to the edge of the bed and said calmly, “Zhou Zining, let’s get a divorce.”

“What did you say?” Zhou Zining sat up abruptly, “What did you just say, I didn’t hear clearly.”

Bo Shuxian looked at her calmly.

His overly calm gaze made Zhou Zining’s heart skip a beat, she bit her lip and said weakly, “Some words, once spoken, cannot be taken back, think it through carefully.”

“Yes, I know.”

Bo Shuxian said, “The properties in my name, as well as the assets, I’ll give to you, including all the movable and immovable properties given to me by Bo’s, but the shares of Bo’s, I will not give directly to you; I will calculate their market value and transfer the money to you.”

“Bo Shuxian!”

“I will leave with nothing, I want nothing but for you to leave Qianqian with me, I have no other demands.”

“Bo Shuxian, do you know what you are saying!” Zhou Zining looked up at him, her neck taut with strained sinews and veins.

Compared to her, Bo Shuxian’s emotions were too stable, neither joyful nor angry, displaying just a hint of tremble in his voice while smoking earlier, but now, standing in front of her, he was calm, even indifferent.

Did he really have no feelings for her at all?

“You truly want to divorce me?”

Bo Shuxian was still looking at her.

Thus, he did not miss the concealed excitement on Zhou Zining’s face when he mentioned giving her the properties of Bo’s.

She does not love money, so, was it because even after the divorce she could still have ties with the Bo Family that she felt pleased?

But his next words, converting the shares into money, were to sever all relations with her completely.

“I will contact the lawyer of Bo Family in a while, you can make any requests you have and I will try to fulfill them.”

“Bo Shuxian, do you really want to divorce me!”

The man nodded, “Yes.”

Zhou Zining trembled violently, staring fiercely at Bo Shuxian, her face filled with panic, “No, you can’t divorce me, you clearly love me so much…”

Bo Shuxian’s black eyes slightly closed, his lips trembled minutely, and turning his face aside he suppressed the sudden surge of emotions.

He turned to leave, but Zhou Zining could no longer care about anything else, scrambling after him, urgently grabbing his hand, “Can’t we not get a divorce, I was wrong, I will change, alright?”

Bo Shuxian turned his head, his love of ten years knelt on the bed pleading with him, her face streaming with tears, each word infused with sobbing.

He was the one who loved her most.

How could he bear to see her cry.

If it were before, he would have consoled her already.

But this time, he still looked at her calmly, letting her clutch his arm, inching upward, trying to get closer, or perhaps to embrace him.

But Bo Shuxian did not give her the chance, he gently pushed her away by the shoulders.

“You are right, I do love you, I have loved you for ten years, I have cared for you for ten years, even if we divorce, I can’t bear to see you suffer, consider that money as my compensation.”

“I don’t want it!”

“Give me a chance, please.”

Bo Shuxian took a step back, “Zhou Zining, give me this one, the chance to let go.”

“We are done.”

Bo Shuxian’s departure was in a gentle tone as well.
