Chapter 1188: Chapter 1188 Why Suddenly Want a Divorce Now?

"Rest assured on this!" Lu Siyuan said, "I’ll fly back when the time comes."

Yang Xiaoxi scoffed, and the topic was seemingly resolved.

While everyone was happily eating, Zhu Yun arrived with her kids. Her voice preceded her arrival at the door.

"What are we having today? It smells so good, I could smell it from afar."

Hearing Zhu Yun’s voice, Yang Xiaoxi’s face darkened instantly. Zhu Yun had been visiting too frequently lately, and always during mealtime, "Why are you here again?"

"Look at how you’re talking, what do you mean ’again’? It’s like you don’t welcome us," Zhu Yun said.

"Don’t you know if we welcome you or not?" Yang Xiaoxi was almost on the verge of driving her away, Zhu Yun had come three times in two days, even more often than herself.

"The kids were fussing about missing you and wanted to visit, what could I do?" Zhu Yun pouted, her eyes fixed on the dining table.

Everyone knew what Zhu Yun was up to. Seeing that she brought two kids and was a relative of Yang Xiaoxi, Ruan Feng politely asked, "Have you had dinner? Why not sit down and eat with us?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yun immediately took the opportunity, "I’ll just grab my own stool, you guys eat, don’t mind me, we are all family here."

Everyone: "..."

It must be said, Zhu Yun’s skin is really thick.

Fortunately, there was plenty of food here; as long as Zhu Yun was just being gluttonous, no one really made it an issue. Ruan Feng shifted a stool, making space for Zhu Yun right next to Shen Mianmian.

Zhu Yun first served each child a bowl of food, then sat down and enjoyed her meal heartily. This time she was tactful enough not to talk too much during the meal.

This courtyard was filled with Shen Mianmian’s relatives. Now, speaking too much could offend people, where would there be any good outcome for her?

Zhu Yun was not foolish.

Everyone soon ignored her presence and continued talking about their own matters.

When everyone was almost done eating, Ruan Feng finally spoke about his and Ruan Lingyu’s matter. He didn’t avoid discussing it in front of everyone, as once the divorce was filed, it couldn’t be kept a secret anyway.

"Mianmian, Lingyu and I have agreed to finalize our divorce procedures tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment. Another divorce?

Five years ago, Ruan Feng and Ruan Lingyu had a tumultuous phase with talk of divorce but then stabilized for five years. Everyone thought they had somehow reconciled.

"Why suddenly think of getting a divorce?" Shen Mianmian was a bit curious.

Ruan Feng calmly said, "We’ve tortured each other for most of our lives. As we’re getting older, there’s no need to force staying together and make each other miserable. It’s better to get a divorce and let everyone be comfortable."

"Is it because of me again?" Although Ruan Feng didn’t say it, Shen Mianmian could guess some of it. Ruan Lingyu saw her like she was an enemy. She was the catalyst between Ruan Lingyu and Ruan Feng.

"Mianmian, don’t overthink it. Lingyu and I really have no feelings left, it’s not your fault," Ruan Feng quickly explained.

Ruan Yiqian also chimed in, "Mom is probably instigated by Xining again. It’s good for her to think things through after the divorce."

Most importantly, once Ruan Lingyu divorced, Cheng Xining wouldn’t continue trying to please her like before, and she could then see Cheng Xining’s true colors.

Shen Mianmian nodded and said softly, "Dad, you’ve made your decision, that’s fine. Whatever decision you make, I respect your thoughts."

Indeed, Shen Mianmian had seen the ongoing issues between Ruan Lingyu and Ruan Feng over the years. Instead of making things difficult for each other, a divorce really seemed like a more relaxing option.
