“No way!” Mr. and Mrs. Hai Rong disagreed in unison.
Hai Rong said coldly, “Xiaotang, you can’t get a divorce just like that. Absolutely not!”
” Why not?” Hai Xiaotang felt frustrated. She was the one wanting to divorce, why were they meddling so much?
“It just can’t happen, that’s final! I just won’t allow it!” Hai Rong then turned to his silent father, “Dad, what do you think?”
Hai Zhiyuan did not readily respond, he muttered slowly, “Indeed, this is a problem. Xiaotang wants to divorce without asking for a penny, but you won’t let her. It’s a problem indeed.”
“Grandpa, your approval is enough!” Hai Xiaotang quickly interjected.
Zhan Yu nudged her and said, “Xiaotang, the adults are having a discussion now, you shouldn’t say anything.”
“But I’m the one who wants to divorce… ”
“But it has to go through our approval.”
“Wiry?”
“Because the interests of the Hai Family are unified!”
Hai Xiaotang: “…”
She could only look at Grandpa in desperation, hoping that he would approve. If he did, her uncle and his wife would have no objections, right?
However, Xiaotang seemed to have overlooked something. Grandpa’s affection for her was immeasurable.
Nonetheless, what Zhan Yu said was not wrong, the interests of the Hai family were indeed unified.
With Hai Rong and his wife opposing so fiercely, he couldn’t always go along with Xiaotang.
After all, he was facing imminent death, and the only relative upon whom Xiaotang would be able to rely in the future was them…
Seeing grandpa fall silent, Hai Xiaotang began to feel uneasy.
Unlike Hai Rong and his wife, Dongfang Yu and his family were sipping tea calmly until this very moment.
Dongfang Zujie was the one who finally spoke up, “Uncle Hai, it indeed isn’t appropriate for Xiaotang to divorce without claiming any assets. Our Dongfang Family wouldn’t do something like this either. You just name the price.”
Hai Zhiyuan managed a smile, “I can’t say anything about that—it’s Xiaotang’s divorce, we can’t make all the decisions.”
“Let’s follow the law,” Hai Rong interjected. “Legally, upon divorce, the couple’s assets are split half and half. Let’s just stick with that.”
Hai Xiaotang’s eyes widened!
How did Uncle dare to say such a thing?
Split half and half…Were they robbing a national bank?
She’d be surprised if Dongfang Yu’s parents didn’t curse at him!
However, Dongfang Yu’s family was surprisingly composed, with no signs of anger or contempt.
All of a sudden, He Meilian laughed amiably and said, “Yuyu probably doesn’t even know how much he personally owns. Splitting it half and half isn’t entirely impossible…”
“I don’t want it!” Hai Xiaotang flatly refused. She looked serious as she said,”I don’t want his money!” 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
All she wanted was to divorce, and if she were to take his money, she’d despise herself.
She married Dongfang Yu not for his wealth.
Now, what she wanted was to put an end to her unhappiness from her past life. Taking his money would mean changing the meaning of everything.
On top of that, she saw no reason to take his money…
Everyone was looking at Hai Xiaotang. Just as Zhan Yu was about to scold her, she interrupted, “Nobody should say a word! I must divorce, and I don’t want even a penny of his money!”
Zhan Yu looked about to blow her top. “Xiaotang, this is not something you can decide on your own!”
Hai Xiaotang got mad,”Why not? I’m the one who wants to divorce, why are you all intervening?”
“Because you could have married him…”
“Alright, everyone shut up!” Hai Zhiyuan sternly interrupted, and Zhan Yu dared not say another word.
Hai Xiaotang always felt as if her Aunt was implying something, but it was merely a moment’s suspicion.
