Chapter 581: After a swaggering second, the embarrassment begins_1

Qin Muchuan stared at her.

"I’ve thought it through, so there’s no question of regret. In fact, I’ve passed the age of regret!" Taking a deep breath, she became even colder. "And as you could imagine, being an orphan often leaves you calmer than others your age!" Lin Xiangwan calmly met his gaze, devoid of excitement, impulse. The emotions she showed made Qin Muchuan feel they were genuine. She was not acting out of distaste or petulance.

Qin Muchuan was not angry about her decision, nor did he blame her, but his feeling of guilt and pity for her deepened. "Could you tell me, is it because you think I’ve fallen out of love, which hurt you, and then prompted you to neglect everything and divorce me?"

Lin Xiangwan found him pretty hilarious. He even had the audacity to ask her why she wanted a divorce. "If that’s your interpretation, I won’t object, but in reality, that’s only part of the reason, not a hundred percent of it!" freewebnøvel.com

She delicately tried to furbish her statement.

Divorce triggered by a husband’s infidelity, if word got out, it would be quite humiliating for her, wouldn’t it?

What a joke! She didn’t want to be labeled as a woman who was dumped.

This divorce, she had to seize control. When people gossip, they had to say that she left him, not the other way around!

"What are the other reasons?" Qin Muchuan asked in detail.

"Our relationship was strained, life lacked passion, and I lost my sense of direction. The life we’re leading now isn’t the one I imagined. I want to be productive, not squabble over trivial matters with old hags!" After saying this, Lin Xiangwan laughed scornfully. "After all, I’m a graduate from a prestigious domestic university. It’s disgraceful to be reduced to a mere housewife or domestic shrew at such a young age, isn’t it?"

Qin Muchuan nodded. "I agree with your reasons too. I feel you’re underutilizing your talents right now."

Lin Xiangwan nodded profusely. "So, now that I want a divorce, let’s get on with it, shall we?"

Qin Muchuan neither agreed nor disagreed, providing an ambiguous response. "You’ve already filed a lawsuit, right? Let’s just wait for the court’s verdict then!"

Not sure what he meant, Lin Xiangwan scrutinized his expression. He didn’t seem to be trying to hold her back, or begging her not to leave, yet he didn’t seem keen on parting either.

"So, do you want a divorce or not?" she pressed him.

Qin Muchuan grinned. "Would you heed my feelings on this?"

Lin Xiangwan shook her head. "Of course not!"

He nodded. "Exactly, if it were up to me, I certainly wouldn’t ask for a divorce. This is your decision, so I can just passively wait for the Court’s decision!"

She had spent some time in court and discovered that filing for a divorce wasn’t as easy a process as one might think.

Even with his full cooperation, the process—from court registration, to evidence gathering, mediation, division of property and child custody—could take at least six months at the quickest.

If he didn’t cooperate, the process could prolong to a year, or even a year and a half.

With limited youth on your hands, she didn’t want to waste her time on this. "If you also want a divorce, or if you think this marriage has no meaning, we could go for an out-of-court settlement. What do you think?"

"No, let’s proceed according to the law. I promise you, I will fully cooperate!" Qin Muchuan seemed pretty amiable about it.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiangwan was filled with resentment and urgency.

Then she thought of the photos and tossed them over to him. "These were taken secretly by Xu Feng’e. Do you want to see them? After all, you’re still my husband. You have the right to know!"

She was very generous and considerate, scattering the photos across the bed for him to see more clearly.

After Qin Muchuan saw all the pictures, Lin Xiangwan was shocked to find that his face showed no change.

Shouldn’t he be enraged? Being cuckolded should feel awful, right?

"It seems that Xu Feng’e really cares about you. She even went to the extent of having someone stalk and spy for me. Even though I hate her, I have to give her some credit for you!" Lin Xiangwan tried to provoke him.

Qin Muchuan looked up at her. "These pictures don’t prove anything. I recognize the man in these photos. Ji Sen, he’s your brother, no? I can understand the slight affectionate behavior between you two, it’s completely acceptable!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiangwan found it absurd. She laughed sarcastically. "Oh, I see. Our tolerance can indeed expand, right? Because your affair with Zhou Ziqing was so intense, my cuddling and hugging seems trivial in your eyes, isn’t it? Remember, when we just went out for a meal together, you looked as if you wanted to kill someone!"

"I didn’t understand the situation before. Later on, I can feel your emotions. You and Ji Sen are family!" Qin Muchuan explained.

Lin Xiangwan nodded. "Of course, Ji Sen and I are family!"

Given the chance to clear her name, she was willing to embrace it.

She changed her tone with a smile. "However, why don’t you reconsider this divorce? Protracting it won’t benefit either of us!"

Qin Muchuan nodded. "That’s right. I will think about it carefully!"

Just as Lin Xiangwan believed she was winning and her face showed a triumphant expression.

With a "bang," the door was pushed open.

Tongtong and Ranran burst in, both looking unhappy as they stared at Lin Xiangwan. There was undisguised animosity in their identical, large eyes.

Seeing those hostile looks, Lin Xiangwan retreated a couple of steps. "Tongtong, Ranran..."

Ranran seemed about to cry, while Tongtong hatred was even more pronounced. "Mom, are you really divorcing dad?"

The child’s voice was not loud, but it was filled with sorrow and accusation.

All of Lin Xiangwan’s previous arrogance disappeared suddenly, leaving nothing behind.

All that was left was embarrassment.

"Tongtong, listen to mom!"

"I don’t want to hear your explanation. I just want to ask you, why are you divorcing Dad? Don’t you want me and dad anymore? Are you going to leave again? I won’t have a mom again, will I?"

Lin Xiangwan retreated further as her daughter questioned her relentlessly. "No, no, mom is not leaving you!"

"Mommy’s lying. I heard everything you said to Dad just now!" Tongtong called distrustfully. Her eyes filled with even more hatred and disdain. "Mommy likes another uncle and wants to be with him, which is why you’re divorcing dad!"
