Chapter 277 Divorce 1
Chapter 277 Divorce 1
The scorching heat soaked through her pajamas on the back, and Jiang Xiyu couldn't help but shed tears.
After a long while, Jiang Xiyu finally pried Xu Rui's hands apart, turned around and said, "Xu Rui, let's get a divorce."
The room was very quiet, so quiet that only the sound of Jiang Xiyu sobbing could be heard.
After a moment of dead silence, Xu Rui grabbed Jiang Xiyu's arm and said frantically, "You are so anxious to divorce me because you want to be with that guy. I tell you, even if you divorce me, you can't be with him. You have been mine for a long time, we have consummated our marriage and are husband and wife. There is no way he wants you anymore."
Xu Rui's words confused Jiang Xiyu's mind. "What did you say?"
Xu Rui sneered, "You don't believe it? Didn't you look at your toad blood?"
Xu Rui grabbed Jiang Xiyu's arm and rolled up her sleeves.
Even though there was no light in the room, one could clearly see that Jiang Xiyu's arms were white and flawless, with nothing on them.
Xu Rui stroked the spot where she had the toad blood before, and said almost frantically, "It's gone."
Jiang Xiyu, who had been slow to react, finally understood something and looked at Xu Rui in shock. "It's you."
Xu Rui smiled proudly, "Of course it's me, who else do you think it is?"
Jiang Xiyu was so frightened that she staggered back a step.
Jiang Xiyu's mind was in a mess and she covered her head in pain.
This madman is not him, why should he admit it?
She even stabbed him, why didn't he explain it clearly at the time?
She has always been angry with him and treated him coldly, so why did he never say anything?
And there is this madman Xu Rui.
Why do these things secretly? Without letting her know.
They are all crazy.
Xu Rui suddenly rushed forward again, grabbed Jiang Xiyu's arm, and begged, "Xi'er, we are husband and wife, let's not divorce, okay? I can't live without you. Also, I didn't touch her, it was just an illusion, Xi'er, please don't leave me, okay?"
Xu Rui said this and was about to hug Jiang Xiyu again.
But Jiang Xiyu found him disgusting and pushed him away desperately, "Xu Rui, don't you think you are selfish?"
Jiang Xiyu's words made Xu Rui's body stiffen again.
Jiang Xiyu actually understands everything.
In fact, from what Shu Ye had just said to her, she had already guessed that all this was just Xu Rui's plan.
Otherwise, how could a person like him allow the Xie family to plot against him?
But she didn't care at all whether he really touched Lin Rouyu or not. What she cared about was never that Lin Rouyu. Unfortunately, he would never understand.
"I don't care what you're doing. Whether you and Lin Rouyu are real or fake. Whether you're using her or me. We've been married for three years, and I no longer have any expectations of you. Our relationship has long come to an end. This has nothing to do with anyone else, it's just you and me. Xu Rui, let go. Let's part ways and live happily ever after."
Xu Rui didn't say anything. He moved with heavy steps, sat down at the table, covered his face and cried.
Jiang Xiyu didn't move, just stood there watching Xu Rui cry.
She thought she would cry too, but those tears just now were probably the last tears she shed for him.
Xu Rui sat there crying for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice, "I can give you a divorce letter, but you have to agree to one condition."
Jiang Xiyu didn't say anything, and didn't seem to want to agree to him.
Xu Rui didn't care and continued, "After you divorce me, leave Kyoto and take your father-in-law and Xiao Yuan with you, as well as all the people who are important to you."
Jiang Xiyu frowned and looked at Xu Rui.
She didn't know what he wanted to do, but his words made her feel that Kyoto would be very dangerous from now on.
Jiang Xiyu was silent for a long time before she spoke, "I can promise you to take my father and Xiaoyuan away from Kyoto, but my father still holds an official position. Even if he wants to leave Kyoto, the emperor may not allow it."
"Let your father-in-law retire. He is an old soldier without military power, and he will let people go." Xu Rui reminded her.
Jiang Xiyu nodded and said, "I can let my father retire, and he should be willing to do so. I also want to ask you for someone's help."
Xu Rui frowned, "Who?"
"The leaves around Lin Rouyu." Jiang Xiyu did not hide it.
Xu Rui was surprised. He never expected that she would ask him for leaves. "She is yours?"
Jiang Xiyu shook her head. "Not really. I didn't ask her to do anything. I just think she knows how to fight her own fate. She has a spirit that I don't have. I want to take her away. Can you give her to me?"
Xu Rui looked at Jiang Xiyu steadily, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "No. You already have such a spirit. I can find a way to help you get Ye Zi's indenture, but she probably won't be able to leave the mansion with you."
"I understand." Jiang Xiyu understood what he meant and knew that he must have a way to help Shu Ye regain his freedom. "Just give her to me before I leave Beijing."
Xu Rui nodded, and the two fell silent again.
It seemed like the sky was getting brighter outside, and sunlight was shining in from outside.
As Xu Rui gradually sobered up, he knew that there were some things he had to face.
Xu Rui walked to the table, picked up the paper and pen on the table and wrote a divorce letter.
He wrote this letter of divorce for a very long time, from the time it started to get light outside until it was fully light.
The divorce letter was also written in a very eloquent way, taking up a whole page, but no matter how much was written, it had to end in the end.
When Xu Rui finally wrote his name, his hands were shaking.
Even if I am extremely reluctant and unwilling, I still have to write this divorce letter.
After pressing his fingerprints, Xu Rui handed the divorce papers to Jiang Xiyu.
Jiang Xiyu glanced over it, signed his name, and pressed his handprint. "Write another copy, you keep it."
Xu Rui smiled bitterly, "What do I need this for?"
"Pack your things, you can leave today." Xu Rui said and turned to leave.
As the door opened, countless lights shone into the room, but Xu Rui felt empty.
He walked outside, but turned back as if unwilling to give up, looking at Jiang Xiyu in the room with burning eyes, and couldn't help but tear up. "Jiang Xiyu, take care of yourself."
The golden sunlight fell on Xu Rui's face, making Jiang Xiyu vaguely recall their first meeting.
It was at the Xishan Hunting Ground. She followed her father to hunt, but got lost in the hunting ground and happened to encounter a mad wild boar, which knocked her off her horse.
At the critical moment, he stretched out his hand to her while running wildly with the bright sunshine behind him.
At that moment, he was like a god sent from heaven, planting a seed in her heart.
She always thought he was handsome and handsome, and even now, she still felt that way.
Outside, Qing'er waited for Xu Rui to leave the yard before rushing into the house, "Madam, are you okay?"
As soon as they entered the room, Qing'er pulled Jiang Xiyu to check it carefully.
"I'm fine." Jiang Xiyu waved the divorce papers in her hand towards Qing'er, "Qing'er, I'm free. We can go back to the General's Mansion."
