My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me
Chapter 1152 - Chapter 1152 Chapter 1154 Divorce Agreement (3)

Chapter 1152: Chapter 1154: Divorce Agreement (3) Chapter 1152: Chapter 1154: Divorce Agreement (3) The lawyer wasn’t seeing it for the first time–spouses squabbling over money during a divorce, but most were arguing to get more. This case, where one was adamantly refusing money while the other was equally determined to give it, and the two were still quarreling about it, was definitely a first.

Moreover, from the way these two argued, it was clear that they still cared deeply for each other. They acted without any reservations toward one another and considered each other’s feelings. Even though divorce rates were high and more young people were getting divorced, it was not common to see such consideration. They weren’t divorcing due to financial needs or other reasons–it was apparent their relationship was still strong. Were they just playing around?

Nevertheless, the lawyer still responsibly asked, “Aside from the financial issues, do you two have any other disagreements?”

Lu Weixi and Qin Zhiyou looked at each other, then shook their heads simultaneously.

The lawyer said, “Then let’s leave it at that for now. Mr. Qin, please give me some time to compile a detailed list of the marital assets acquired over the course of your five-year marriage. Based on that list, we’ll divide the assets each of you should receive post-divorce.”

Lu Weixi interjected again, “I don’t need that much.”

Qin Zhiyou, on the other hand, was calm, “Even if you don’t need it, we still need to sort it out and then discuss the proportions–all documentation is necessary. Even if I were to give you ten percent, it would need some consideration. Otherwise, people will really think I’m stingy. After so many years of marriage, for my ex-wife to not receive a dime–that’s unacceptable.”

The lawyer, with a keen ear, detected a slight reluctance in Qin Zhiyou’s words to proceed with the divorce. One moment he talked about organizing, the next about researching, and he insisted on giving money–making it seem as if he wouldn’t allow the divorce without a financial settlement.

The lawyer wasn’t oblivious to the subtleties, but he didn’t want Mrs. Qin to catch on to that sentiment. He simply adjusted his glasses and stated gently, “Mr. Qin’s assets acquired during the years of marriage, apart from the previously agreed upon indivisible parts, such as the income from Hanhai’s stock rights, include wages, stocks, futures, real estate, vehicles, and other immovable properties, as well as other investment earnings. All are subject to division. The process will take at least…”

When the lawyer mentioned the time, he glanced at Qin Zhiyou. Qin Zhiyou didn’t show much reaction but gave the lawyer a subtle wink. The lawyer, catching the hint, carried on, “At least over half a month.”

Qin Zhiyou frowned slightly. Over half a month–what was that good for?

Understanding the cue, the lawyer quickly corrected himself, “Some assets, if they need evaluation, will require even more time.”

The more Lu Weixi listened, the more he felt things were becoming excessive, “Actually, I don’t want much money–it’s not a problem if you don’t give me any. In the end, the responsibility for this affair is mine; I have dragged both Hanhai’s and Zhiyou’s names through the mud. I am willing to forgo my claim. And even if I wanted to, my mother probably wouldn’t agree.”

Qin Zhiyou spoke leisurely, “You’re divorcing me, not my mother. If you don’t take even a bit of money, then let’s not get a divorce at all.”

The lawyer immediately agreed, “Exactly, society encourages marriage, not divorce. If the two of you cannot agree on the division of assets, even if it goes to court, they are likely to rule that the relationship has not broken down and not grant a divorce. Moreover, Mrs. Qin, if you find calculating the assets to be troublesome, unless you go to the civil affairs bureau, a court divorce litigation would take at least six months. If you add the time for evaluating and dividing assets, it would be over seven months…”
