Chapter 476: Chapter 338: Coming for Divorce_1
Gu Li: “What’s the swap?”
Da Ha: “If you win, I’ll tell you a secret about Sister Qian. If you lose, you’ll make jelly pudding for me. How’s that?”
Gu Li: “What secret about Sister Qian?”
Da Ha: “If I told you, it wouldn’t be a secret, would it?”
Gu Li: “…Deal!”
And so, at this moment on the flight from M Country to Hua Country, Da Ha honorably put Murong Qian under the spotlight.
“Ah-choo!”
“Ah-choo!”
Who is cursing me?
Murong Qian, sitting in first class, sneezed twice in a row.
She opened her bag and pulled out a pack of tissues, taking two.
After wiping her nose, a very familiar voice came from overhead:”Do you have a cold?”
Lu Cong?
Why is he on this plane?
Wait, when did he come to M Country? She had no idea.
Just as she was wondering, Lu Cong was already sitting next to her, reaching out to remove the sunglasses from her face.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
Murong Qian was startled and quickly looked around to find that no one had noticed her, then she tried to take back her sunglasses.
Lu Cong put the sunglasses into his own suit pocket, smiling at her slyly, “There’s no sun inside the plane, why are you wearing sunglasses? Such beautiful eyes being covered, that’s a shame.”
Murong Qian glared at him unhappily, “What’s it to you? Give me back my sunglasses.”
“Nope!”
“You–”
“Don’t worry, I rented the first class cabin. It’s just the two of us. Didn’t you notice that there were no passengers on the whole trip?”
As Lu Cong said this, he casually draped an arm over her shoulders.
Upon hearing this, Murong Qian was speechless, “Do you have more money than you know what to do with?”
Lu Cong smiled slightly: “Yes, I need a wife to help me spend it. Miss Murong, do you want to be my wife?”
His words clearly lacked sincerity and made him look more like a playboy playing around.
However, at this moment, Murong Qian’s heart couldn’t help but race.
The feeling of her heart pounding was so clear that she couldn’t ignore it.
Afraid he would notice her abnormality, Murong Qian curved her lips into a tantalizingly seductive smile, “If I agreed, would you marry me right here and now?”
“Of course! As soon as we get off the plane, we can go straight to the civil affairs bureau.”
Although he knew she was teasing him, Lu Cong was still excited.
He subconsciously squeezed her hand tightly, as if he never wanted to let go.
Her hand hurt from his grip, so Murong Qian frowned and pulled away, “I was joking, don’t take it seriously.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she took her sunglasses back and put them on.
“Hm.”
Clearing her throat, she changed the topic, “When did you get to M Country?”
“Several days ago.”
Lu Cong stared at her, a faint shadow flickering in his deep eyes.
Several days ago?
And he didn’t look for her?
No, why does she care?
He’s not her who?
Why should he report his itinerary to her?
Realizing that she was caring more and more about him, Murong Qian couldn’t help but loathe herself a little.
“Aren’t you curious about what I’ve been doing?”
His deep voice pulled her thoughts back.
Murong Qian adjusted her sunglasses, leaned back in her seat, crossed her arms, and humphed, “What you do has nothing to do with me, does it?”
Ignoring her prickly demeanor, Lu Cong simply told her, “I went to M Country to deal with some divorce matters. If nothing goes wrong, the marriage contract would be dissolved today.”
He had been seeking support from various parties for some time in the hope that he could break off his engagement with Li Ruoruo.
Li Ruoruo herself would never agree to it, and Li Jinyao was still not helping him, so he could only risk everything in persuading Old Master Li by offering irresistible benefits. Only then did Old Master Li agree to let the matter of the divorce proceed, but on the condition that Lu Cong must handle a matter for the Li Family in M Country.
Of course, the matter was a thorny one, but fortunately, Lu Cong was highly capable and widely connected. After days of effort, he finally managed to settle it.
Thinking that once he returned, he would be able to successfully dissolve the engagement, Lu Cong was floating on air; his words carried traces of laughter.
Really going to dissolve the engagement?
Murong Qian was stunned, her lips slightly parted, but she was speechless for a while.
This wasn’t the first time he had mentioned the divorce in front of her, but never had it been as definite as it now seemed, as if it was a done deal.
She understood that he was doing this for her.
But she didn’t feel moved at all.
She had never forgotten the grand engagement ceremony between him and Li Ruoruo four years ago.
