Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Are You Planning to Register for Marriage Right After Getting Divorced?
"No need, she just has a cold," Cheng Zhiyin stopped them. "Let her rest."
Meng Qiancheng gave a bitter smile. "She doesn’t want to see me, does she?"
How could he not understand.
"Qiancheng, Zhiwei has always been very opinionated since she was young, and we rarely interfere in her affairs."
Meng Qiancheng was silent for a few seconds, his tone somewhat cold, "The consequence of her being opinionated is that she met Zhou Lin, that scum. I know it sounds terrible to talk about a breakup fee, but in this marriage, it was Zhou Lin who wronged her, and she also wasted her best years on that scoundrel, why shouldn’t she take a breakup fee."
The assets were to be split equally, and the amount Cheng Zhiwei would receive was calculated in the hundreds of millions. The Zhou Group would also have to take a hit.
He continued, "Moreover, after the divorce, Weiwei will bear the title of Zhou Lin’s ex-wife. Those opportunists might even trample on her. Without anything, how could she stand on her own in society?"
The words were harsh, but the logic was solid.
Cheng Zhiyin nodded gently. "You make sense, but I still say the same thing, this is her own matter, and she should decide for herself. Let’s go have dinner."
Meng Qiancheng didn’t say anything more and left after dinner.
Guo Cuihua complained softly, "What’s wrong with Zhiwei, Qiancheng is such a good kid and yet she doesn’t seize the chance..."
Cheng Zhiyin smiled, "Zhiwei only sees him as a brother, Mom, don’t worry about it."
Cheng Zhiwei left for dinner only after receiving a message from Cheng Zhiyin that Meng Qiancheng had left.
Guo Cuihua was visibly annoyed. "Is he a flood or a beast that you didn’t even dare to come out to eat?"
Cheng Zhiwei stuck out her tongue and didn’t dare to respond, quietly eating her meal.
Her face still hadn’t healed, and after Guo Cuihua complained a few times and saw her face, she ultimately didn’t have the heart to continue.
Zhou Lin returned three days later and arranged for Cheng Zhiwei to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau the next morning to get their divorce certificate.
Cheng Zhiwei was thrilled and shared the news with Guo Cuihua and Cheng Zhiyin.
The next morning, just as she was about to leave, Meng Qiancheng arrived. "Weiwei, I’ll go with you."
Cheng Zhiwei looked silently at Guo Cuihua, who coughed and pushed Cheng Zhiwei out the door, "Your foot is still not healed, I’ll be at ease with Qiancheng accompanying you."
"I’ve already asked Xu Tian to accompany me," Cheng Zhiwei still tried to argue, although she hadn’t actually asked anyone, but she also didn’t want to go with Meng Qiancheng.
Zhou Lin had issues with Meng Qiancheng, and who knows what unpleasantness could arise.
Cheng Zhiwei just wanted a peaceful divorce.
"No worries, having more people can help take better care of you," Guo Cuihua decided definitively.
Cheng Zhiwei had no choice but to brave it out and go with Meng Qiancheng.
At the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhou Lin hadn’t arrived yet, so she found a seat and waited.
The walls of the Civil Affairs Bureau were glass, allowing one to clearly see inside from outside.
Zhou Lin was just about to get out of the car, one foot already outside, when he saw Cheng Zhiwei and Meng Qiancheng next to her.
They were sitting side by side, shoulders touching, with Meng Qiancheng occasionally leaning in to talk to her, and Cheng Zhiwei occasionally nodding. Although he couldn’t see her expression, one could imagine she was likely smiling deeply, full of tenderness.
They seemed very intimate.
Yet she wasn’t divorced yet.
His already expressionless face suddenly turned dark and murderous.
Secretary Zhang had already gotten out of the car. Seeing Zhou Lin’s face change and looking inside, he immediately understood and stood silently beside him.
"Let’s go back." Zhou Lin’s voice was gruff. They weren’t divorced yet, and she dared to flaunt her new love in front of him—this marriage he would stubbornly refuse to end.
Secretary Zhang acknowledged and got into the car, which then left directly.
Half an hour past the agreed-upon time, Zhou Lin still hadn’t shown up. Cheng Zhiwei’s lips pursed slightly, her complexion not too good.
Had he really stood her up again?
Meng Qiancheng snorted coldly, "I told you he’s not that kind-hearted. Saying he’ll divorce and just do it? He must be finding another excuse to delay you, Weiwei. How can you never learn?"
Cheng Zhiwei remained silent, stood up, walked to the side, and took out her phone to call Secretary Zhang to ask if Zhou Lin had forgotten about today.
Zhou Lin’s voice came from the phone, "Cheng Zhiwei, what, you bring Meng Qiancheng with you, planning to register for marriage immediately after getting divorced?"
Cheng Zhiwei was stunned. Was he saying this because he saw Meng Qiancheng here?
She looked around carefully to the left and right but didn’t see Zhou Lin. It seemed he had come, seen Meng Qiancheng, and then left.
She suddenly felt a bit weak, explaining, "He just gave me a ride here, that’s all."
"Cheng Zhiwei, I have warned you many times, I don’t like Meng Qiancheng. On the day you divorce, you still dare to bring him brazenly before me, huh."
The phone call ended.
Cheng Zhiwei felt an intense headache, glancing at Meng Qiancheng sitting nearby, a wave of irritation surged in her heart. She had told him not to come, not to come.
Otherwise, she would have her divorce certificate by now.
Seeing her hang up, Meng Qiancheng immediately came over, asking with concern, "What did Zhou Lin say?"
Cheng Zhiwei took a deep breath, pushing back her irritation towards Meng Qiancheng, looking up calmly, she said, "I’ll go find him myself."
Meng Qiancheng frowned, "I’m going with you."
"No need, Brother Qiancheng, I should go alone." Cheng Zhiwei shook her head, refusing him as she tried to stay calm, convincing him, "This is between him and me, it’s better if I go alone."
"But, what if he bullies you when you go alone? I must accompany you." Meng Qiancheng was very insistent.
It appeared that he truly cared about Cheng Zhiwei incessantly.
Cheng Zhiwei tightened her lips, gripping her phone hard—such care was genuinely exhausting.
"Brother Qiancheng, he was just here." Cheng Zhiwei looked into Meng Qiancheng’s eyes, opting to tell the truth, "But he left upset after seeing us together."
She hoped Meng Qiancheng would understand if she wanted the divorce to proceed smoothly, she needed to confront Zhou Lin alone.
However, Meng Qiancheng ignored the implication in her words, instead expressing his anger, "He just wants to use the divorce as an excuse to torment you, now he’s even using me as an excuse, which is too much."
Cheng Zhiwei pursed her lips helplessly; in fact, she didn’t think Zhou Lin was using Meng Qiancheng as an excuse, especially since Lin Yu had put pressure on him. He wouldn’t dare to act recklessly, at the very least, he had to consider Seo Zhenzhen.
After a long silence, Cheng Zhiwei still insisted, "Brother Qiancheng, it’s better if I go alone, you go back to work. The hospital is so busy, don’t waste your time on me."
Meng Qiancheng, seeing her insistence, could only agree, "Then I’ll drop you off at his company’s building, and then I’ll go back to the hospital."
"Okay." Cheng Zhiwei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly agreed.
She really feared Meng Qiancheng would insist on following.
Arriving at the company building, Cheng Zhiwei had just walked in when immediately a receptionist approached her, "Young Madam."
"I’m here to see Zhou Lin."
"This way, please. I’ll take you up."
