Chapter 14: Don't You Want to Divorce Me?

Chapter 14: Don't You Want to Divorce Me?


Did Nan Huang just openly acknowledge that she knows about San Dang San (a Chinese term referring to a man having affairs with multiple women)?


Mu Yun's expression instantly turned ugly.


Zhao Gang and a few others examined Nan Huang.


Strange, they clearly remembered that there was a birthmark on Ye Nan Huang's face. Because of this birthmark, she had always been very self-conscious and had never dared to hold her head high like this, nor had she ever displayed such pride and confidence.


For a moment, they felt like this woman was somewhat different from their memories, and she even seemed a bit cool.


However, Zhao Gang and the others looked at Mu Yun.


Even if Ye Nan Huang had surgery to remove the birthmark, it didn't affect Mu Yun's goddess-like excellence and dominance.


Zhao Gang spoke, "Ye Nan Huang, I know you're not satisfied, but you also know that Brother Bao has always loved Mu Yun. You should let go."


The commotion on Nan Huang's side attracted the attention of many people, and quite a few noticed what was happening there.


Someone nudged Bao Shen with their elbow and pointed to Nan Huang's direction. "Brother Bao, look at your sister-in-law over there. It seems like there's trouble."


This "sister-in-law" naturally referred to Mu Yun.


Bao Shen followed the gaze, but the first person he saw wasn't Mu Yun; it was actually Nan Huang.


His heart suddenly raced, then he felt slightly embarrassed, as if he had been caught cheating on the spot. The next moment, he furrowed his brow and said, "Why is she here?"


...


Song Zhuo took a sip of wine and smiled at Zhao Gang. "Young man, have you had too much salt?"


Zhao Gang immediately recognized Song's son, and he didn't understand why Song's son was standing behind Nan Huang. He asked, "Too much salt?"


Xie Ziran casually said, "He means you're too nosy and have too much free time."


Zhao Gang fell silent for a moment and said, "We are high school classmates. We've known since high school that Brother Bao has always liked Mu Yun, and he has never liked Ye Nan Huang. As for Ye Nan Huang marrying Brother Bao, it was just catching an opportunity. Mu Yun is the woman Brother Bao loves."


Nan Huang chuckled inwardly. "Classmate, Bao Shen and I still have the marriage certificate. Are you suggesting that only someone unloved can be a mistress? Sorry, the law doesn't work that way. Or are you suggesting you're older than the law?"


"You don't have your divorce certificate yet?" This statement was clearly provocative.


Many people on this side began to whisper.


Xie Ziran let out a long "Oh," wearing an exaggerated expression as if contemplating something interesting.


Shao Hang pointed at Nan Huang. "Aren't you also with Young Master Song now? You're already looking for a new partner before getting your divorce certificate?"


Xie Ziran grew impatient. His eyes darkened, and he became fierce, "Take your dirty hands off her. If I see you pointing at my cousin, I can make the Shao family business suffer a huge loss right now."


"Cousin..." Shao Hang hesitated and withdrew his hand reluctantly.


Song Zhuo secretly glanced at Nan Huang.


Divorce certificate not obtained yet? He wondered what she was planning to do.


Mu Yun bit her lower lip. "Sister, I didn't mean to..."


Nan Huang interrupted, "Then don't come over here trying to meddle in our relationship."


Bao Shen hesitated for a moment, then walked over. Many eyes were on him.


A flash of navy blue approached, and in front of Nan Huang, he reached out and pulled Mu Yun behind him, protecting her.


He frowned and warned Nan Huang, "Don't bully her."


Who was really bullying whom?


Nan Huang lifted her head without backing down, looking at Bao Shen. "Am I bullying her? What did I do to bully her? Did you see me hit her? Bao Shen, I invited you to the Civil Affairs Bureau yesterday to get a divorce certificate, but you told me Mu Yun had a fever, so you couldn't get the divorce certificate with me. How come her fever is gone so quickly?"


"This obviously isn't an illness." Nan Huang assessed Mu Yun's complexion. "Or is it that you just used an excuse? You don't want to divorce me?"


Bao Shen's face suddenly darkened.


Mu Yun's complexion wasn't great either. Over the past few days, she had been claiming to be recently divorced and in poor mental health, clinging to Bao Shen. But that didn't mean they had actually finalized the divorce.


She had a vague feeling that Bao Shen might not want to end this marriage.


But how could that be?


Mu Yun said, "I was really sick these past few days, and Brother Shen has been with me day and night. He really didn't have time. Sister, once I'm feeling better, Brother Shen will..."


"Shut up." Bao Shen's face turned gloomy as he stared at Nan Huang.


This woman had changed so much.


The birthmark on her face was gone, her skin had improved, and her aura was no less impressive than Mu Yun's; in fact, it might even be better.


But none of that mattered.


What mattered was that she had suddenly said she didn't love him.


She had loved him for so many years, could she really say she didn't love him anymore?


Thinking about this, a sense of suffocation filled Bao Shen's heart.


Mu Yun had intended to say that Bao Shen would eventually divorce her. However, Bao Shen abruptly interrupted her.


Mu Yun's feeling of unease grew stronger.


This tense moment had everyone in the banquet hall on edge, and they dared not make a sound.


Just then, there was a commotion, and Bao's grandmother, the elderly Mrs. Bao, came out.


A silver-haired old woman walked in, breaking the awkward silence.


"What exciting event has occurred? Can this old lady join in?" Mrs. Bao asked.


Seeing this, Bao Shen walked over quickly. "Grandmother."


Mrs. Bao had been in the business world for many years and was not an ordinary character. She quickly grasped the situation with a glance.


"Daughter-in-law, you're here too," she gestured to Nan Huang.


The original Ye Nan Huang had a poor relationship with Bao Shen, but she got along reasonably well with Bao Shen's family. As Bao's daughter-in-law, she had done what was expected of her. While Bao's family was not particularly kind to her, they were not overly cruel either. They would handle things for the sake of appearances.


However, if Bao Shen wanted a divorce, Bao's family wouldn't interfere much.


After all, from the perspective of the Bao family, a mere heiress of a small shoe company wasn't highly regarded.


Nan Huang took a few steps forward, and Mu Yun, who was feeling embarrassed, turned almost as pale as the wall.




Zhao Gang and the others couldn't bear to see this and immediately said, "Today is Grandma Bao's birthday, and Mu Yun has prepared a painting for her. As you all know, Mu Yun's paintings are renowned worldwide, and one of her paintings can fetch a high price of several hundred thousand."


Then, he glanced at Nan Huang and added, "We don't know what gift Miss Ye has prepared."


Seeing this, Zhang Haoyan chimed in, "Miss Ye didn't come empty-handed, did she?"


Nan Huang seemed somewhat surprised, paused her steps, and looked at Grandma Bao in the front.


Then, she raised her lips slightly. "Isn't this a coincidence? The gift that my daughter-in-law prepared for Grandma's birthday is also a painting."


Also a painting?


This added more excitement to the audience who were watching this drama unfold.


Zhao Gang thought, "In terms of painting, Ye Nan Huang can't possibly compare to Mu Yun." So, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling excited about seeing Ye Nan Huang's face lose.


He thought that in terms of painting, Ye Nan Huang couldn't possibly compare to Mu Yun, so he breathed a sigh of relief and was excited to see Ye Nan Huang's embarrassment.


At this point, with some excitement, he said, "Well, since they're both paintings, why not let's see them together?"
