Old Madam Han’s face stiffened. Clearly, she did not expect Gao Xiaoxiao to mention divorce.

However, she had just said some harsh words… The old lady was at her wit’s end. She nudged her silent grandson, hinting for him to coax his wife quickly.

Han Zhen raised his eyebrows and walked over to hold Gao Xiaoxiao’s shoulders. He coaxed her softly, “Wifey, stop fooling around. There are so many people watching…”
“1m not fooling around.” Gao Xiaoxiao looked up. Her eyes behind the glasses were clear and firm. “I’m serious. Let’s get a divorce.”

“Little Xiaoxiao.” Old Madam Han panicked and quickly came over to hold her hand. “Grandma was just joking. Don’t take it to heart. If you don’t want to have children, let’s talk about it in the future. You can’t get a divorce on a whim…”
“It has nothing to do with… having children, Grandma.” Gao Xiaoxiao smiled. Indeed, after telling her about the divorce, she felt relieved.

“The reason we’re getting a divorce is because my character is not compatible with Ah Zhen’s. There’s really no point in continuing this marriage. I’m still young, and I want to find my own happiness, so…. I’m sorry, grandma. I might have to disappoint you. Goodbye.”
With that, Gao Xiaoxiao bowed deeply to Old Madam Han and turned to leave decisively.

Old Madam Han opened her mouth and slapped Han Zhen’s arm anxiously. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and chase after her!”

The elevator door opened and Gao Xiaoxiao entered. She had just pressed the button to close the door when Han Zhen barged in.
The elevator door closed slowly. Gao Xiaoxiao brushed her hair by her ear and said calmly, “I’ll go to Huanyan’s place to sleep later. I’ll go back to the villa to pack my things tomorrow afternoon. I won’t be going to the office on Monday. Also, about the divorce settlement…”
“[ don’t think I’ve agreed to the divorce yet.” Han Zhenzhen spun the car key and interrupted her in a leisurely tone.

Gao Xiaoxiao sighed and said in a well-meaning manner, “Our relationship now is actually no different from a divorce. Three years ago, you said that you married me to reassure your elders. Now you can look for a more obedient and outstanding wife. I believe many women will be willing.”
Han Zhenzhen put his hands in his pockets and looked at her cynically. “Is that so? Why don’t you… introduce one to me?”

Gao Xiaoxiao did not expect him to relent so quickly. She said without hesitation, “I don’t know many socialites, but… I think Miss Gu from Gu Corporation is not bad.”

“Oh?” Han Zhen flashed a roguish grin. “You think she’s not bad too?”

Gao Xiaoxiao smiled back at him. “Yes, Miss Gu is beautiful, generous, and knowledgeable. Her family background is very compatible with the Han family. Grandma, Dad, and Mom will be very pleased.”

When they reached the first floor and walked out of the elevator, the smile on Han Zhen’s face did not change. He even reached out to stroke Gao Xiaoxiao’s head. “What a good wife. She’s divorced but still helps her husband find a wife.”

After saying this, Han Zhen snorted coldly and walked away.

Gao Xiaoxiao stood there in a daze, feeling like she had offended him.

However… She quickly became happy. Since Han Zhen had agreed to the divorce, everything would be easy to handle. She would regain her freedom and could go home to be with Xiaobai!

Gao Xiaoxiao walked briskly to the entrance of the hospital and hailed a taxi. “Sir, let’s go to Cuiyuan Estate.”

‘As Han Zhen was driving out of the hospital, he saw Gao Xiaoxiao flagging a taxi.

She had taken off her black-framed glasses. As she hopped into the taxi, the smile on her face was dazzling.

“Does getting a divorce and getting rid of me really make her so relaxed and happy?” he wondered.

Han Zhen narrowed his eyes. He had to admit that his male ego was a little hurt.

His phone rang. He picked it up, glanced at it, and put it to his ear. “Hello.”

“Young Master Han, it’s Su Cheng. I’m sorry, I want to end my leave early. I’ll return to City D tomorrow and resume work at Han Tai Corporation next Monday. Is that alright?”

“Yes,” Han Zhen replied calmly.

“That’s great. Thank you, Young Master Han. See you next Monday.”

After putting down the phone, Han Zhen drove straight to the Night of Sin nightclub.

Su Cheng was actually his university peer when they were studying abroad. After graduation, she started working as his special assistant at Han Tai Corporation. She had previously applied for leave to get married and take a vacation. To him, her sudden return was a good thing.

After all, there was a need now to investigate some things that he initially thought were unnecessary.

‘The moment Gao Xiaoxiao pushed the door open, she saw Gao Xiaobai playing games on the sofa.

“Xiaobai, why are you playing games again? Have you finished your homework?” If she remembered correctly, the kindergarten entrance examination was next Monday.

Gao Xiaobai logged out of the game and jumped off the sofa. Instead of answering, he asked, “Mommy, have you divorced Han Zhen?”

Gao Xiaoxiao felt a little awkward. She touched his hair and said, “How can it be that fast? But don’t worry, it’ll be done in a week at most!”

Gao Xiaobai nodded. “Remember, you can’t let Han Zhen know of my existence.”

Gao Xiaoxiao suppressed her laughter and nodded. “Definitely!”

After a while, Xiaomao came to the house to cook. Gao Xiaoxiao picked up her phone and walked into the bedroom to call Chang Huanyan.

“What? Gu Xiangbei is actually a couple with your sister-in-law?” Perhaps because she was too shocked, the usually gentle Chang Huanyan suddenly raised her voice.

After getting Gao Xiaoxiao’s affirmation, she asked, “Then… how did he react to you? No one else could tell, right?”

Gao Xiaoxiao told her exactly what Gu Xiangbei did and said.

Repeating his words did not seem as painful as the first time she heard it.

“He misunderstood you.” Chang Huanyan sighed. “Xiaoxiao, why don’t you find a chance to talk to him and tell him everything? I believe…”
“It’s useless. The truth has already been established. It’s absolutely impossible between me and him now,” Gao Xiaoxiao said calmly, as if she was talking about something unrelated to herself.
“Huanyan, I’m looking for you mainly to ask you for a favor.”

“Tell me.”

“I’ve already filed for divorce with the Han family and Han Zhen has agreed. So can you help me find a reliable lawyer?” Gao Xiaoxiao asked.

“alright, no problem,” Chang Huanyan readily agreed.

After dinner, Gao Xiaoxiao used the computer to post her resume!

Gao Xiaobai lay on the sofa with his legs crossed and said in an adult tone, “Isn’t there alimony after divorce? Why are you looking for a job?”
