Chapter 416: Let’s Get a Divorce (1)

She hardened her resolve as she thought of this.

Her voice trembling, she tried to ignore the pain spreading throughout her body as she determinedly looked toward Si Zhengting. “So, it’s better that we get a divorce.”

Let’s get a divorce…

This wasn’t the first time she was saying this.

Yet this was the time that shocked Si Zhengting the most.

She obviously hadn’t meant it when she had brought it up the previous time.

But now, with all the misunderstandings cleared up, and now that he had proven her innocence, she was still saying this, meaning that… this was a rational decision!

For the second time in his life, Si Zhengting felt lost.

The first time was a long time ago, when she had broken up with him. At that point in time, he hadn’t known how to ask her to stay, hadn’t known how love was like… and he had simply used coldness to mask his hurt.

This time, having gone through the five years of breakup, he had already set his mind on keeping her by his side. Yet, in this very moment, he who was crafty and full of methods to deal with sly businessmen in the corporate world… was at a loss.

He began to panic. He wanted to say something to make her stay, but just as he moved his lips to speak, he heard her continue speaking.

The rationality in her voice made him fearful.

Slowly, she said, “Si Zhengting, I’m not saying this out of anger. I mean it when I say that we’re not suitable for each other. The world is simply materialistic — a marriage can only work if the statuses of the two people getting together match. We don’t match in this aspect, and even if we were to ignore that, we know that we have sore points about each other. We’re not suited to live together anymore, and we’ll only cause each other more hurt if we continue. We’re only going to destroy what’s left of our memories and relationship.”

“There won’t be any more hurt.”

Si Zhengting had sworn at the bottom of his heart that there wouldn’t be any more hurt between the two of them.

But just as he was about to say it, she said all of this.

She was clenching her fists as she spoke. “Do you know? In these five years, you’ve always been perfect and irreplaceable in my heart. But if we continue like this, I feel that… one day, I won’t love you anymore.”

One day, I won’t love you anymore…

That once sentence shook him hard, freezing him.

To him, there was nothing else that was crueler than that.

He clenched his fists, the words he originally intended to say now stuck in his throat.

Somehow, everything that she had said seemed right. He had no rebuttal for her words.

In his mind, she had always been the best, the irreplaceable one…

If they hadn’t met, if they hadn’t gotten married and started living together, perhaps she would still be as pure as she had been in the beginning.

But now, their relationship was as such…

Still in his trance, he watched her as she opened the door and left the room after she finished speaking.

As he watched her silhouette, he stuck out his hand as if to stop her, but he had no idea what to do.

Even his offer of asking her to stay in the master bedroom stayed in his throat, unspoken.

“Thud!”

The room door closed. He dropped his hand dejectedly.

He stood where he was for a long time, staring at the door as if waiting for her to turn back, open the door, and tell him that she no longer wanted a divorce.

But it never happened.

She never returned.
