Tang Xiaoai smiled softly, "Stop saying so many high-sounding words. As long as you nod, I will sign the will. You sign the divorce agreement and everything will be over. It's very simple."
"Young lady, no, this is what the master left for you..." Lawyer Zhang couldn't help being shocked when he saw Tang Xiaoai's calm expression, and he also felt a little admiration for the girl in his heart.
To what extent does a person have to be hurt before he would give up all his glory and wealth, abandon a lifetime of good clothing and food, and just think about leaving.
What shocked him even more was that Tang Xiaoai actually did what Mr. Li expected. When Mr. Li made the will, Lawyer Zhang was also shocked, but Mr. Li quickly explained to Lawyer Zhang.
Grandpa gave Tang Xiaoai the rights to the entire Li family just so that she could truly do what she wanted to do according to her own wishes.
It can also help her leave the Li family. Of course, grandpa understands Li Wenyan's temperament. I'm afraid he won't let it go easily. Besides, Tang Xiaoai has penetrated into Li Wenyan's bones. It would be impossible to let him go.
Still difficult.
But if Tang Xiaoai had the leverage to leave, then even if Li Wenyan refused, he would have to let go. Grandpa didn't want Tang Xiaoai to suffer anymore, so he thought of this method.
"It doesn't matter, grandpa won't mind. I think this is the result that grandpa wants to see. Just as it happens, Lawyer Zhang, did you bring the divorce agreement that I gave you for safekeeping last time?" Tang Xiaoai turned to Lawyer Zhang,
He spoke calmly, as if he was talking about a piece of work without any rush.
Lawyer Zhang sighed silently and didn't know what to say. He took out the divorce agreement from his briefcase and handed it to Tang Xiaoai.
Tang Xiaoai took it, walked quietly to Li Wenyan, and presented the pen and divorce agreement in front of him, "Sign your name in exchange for all the property of the Li family. You have nothing to hesitate."
Li Wenyan clenched his fists slightly, and his dazzling black eyes reflected the cruelty after being injured, "When will it be your turn to command me! If you want a divorce, I will not stray away. If you want to escape, I will lock you up for the rest of your life!"
When Wen Zi heard this, she immediately became furious. She pushed away the people who were supporting her, rushed over and grabbed the divorce agreement from Tang Xiaoai's hand and stuffed it into Li Wenyan's hand, "Son, are you crazy?"
?Why keep such a woman! Sign quickly, those properties belong to the Li family!"
"Get out of the way!" Li Wenyan opened Wen Zi and shouted.
"Yan, just sign, these three words are enough for the entire Li family, why do you have any hesitation..."
"Yes, cousin, sign it..."
"It's not worth gambling on your property..."
Everyone in the Li family began to urge, and Tang Xiao Aiken finally gave up the property. They must seize the opportunity quickly, lest it is too late if she changes her mind.
Xu Zhifeng didn't say anything. He looked at Tang Xiaoai coldly from the side, wanting to see what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd. She finally got the money, would she really give it away so easily?
Xiao Qiyue had no idea. She just watched all this passively, not knowing what to say, and she couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong.
Li Wenyan turned a deaf ear to the others' words and stared at Tang Xiaoai coldly and cruelly, "She wants to leave, it's impossible! It's never possible!"
He was used to having her by his side, used to hearing her breathing every day and night, used to feeling her heartbeat, used to the warmth of her arms pressing on his waist every time she turned over, used to seeing her expression when she was working hard.
Her leaving would make him feel empty and frightened to the point of panic. But he couldn't say anything to beg her to stay. A proud man couldn't lose face.
Seeing Li Wenyan's stoic and cruel expression, stubbornly refusing to sign, Tang Xiaoai was relieved for a moment. At least he was not so ruthless that he couldn't wait to kick her out immediately, even though he knew that he was like this
The stubbornness was not because he cared about her, but because he was aloof and refused to take action because he was unwilling to be ordered like this. But she still felt a little bit relieved.
Tang Xiaoai closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and made a concession, "It's okay not to sign the divorce agreement for the time being. As long as the Li family doesn't stop me, I will move out of the Li family now and never bother me again.
I can sign it, and as for the divorce agreement, I will send it to you after you think about it."
"Okay, we agree, you sign it quickly!" Wen Zi almost said it before Tang Xiaoai finished the last word. She was eager to kick Tang Xiaoai out, and now it suits her.
"What about you?" Tang Xiaoai ignored Wen Zi, and the most important thing was Li Wenyan.
Li Wenyan had a dark face and stared at Tang Xiaoai fiercely, wishing to tear her into pieces!
"Don't hesitate, just agree!" Wen Zi urged anxiously.
"Yes, Brother Li, please agree..."
"Nod your head."
The Li family was noisy and excited.
"Shut up, everyone!" Li Wenyan roared, and the Li family was frightened into silence.
"Get out of here before I change my mind! Get out of here right away!" Li Wenyan roared as if he had collapsed, his cheeks trembling.
With Li Wenyan's permission, Tang Xiaoai signed the transfer of the will, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around to leave.
It's over, I can finally stop being tortured by him, and I can finally live my own life.
When he walked to the door, he stopped for some reason. He turned around slightly and saw Li Wenyan sitting on the sofa, facing her from the side. His chest was still heaving due to anger, but his eyes did not look towards her for a moment.
She felt relieved now, but her heart felt empty, as if something had been drained out.
She took a deep breath, turned around decisively, and walked out quickly. This freedom was hard-earned for her and she couldn't miss it.
As soon as Tang Xiaoai left, Li Wenyan's breath that he had just held surged out of his lungs like a string, and he gasped for breath. The air seemed to be thorny, and every breath cut his throat and stung his lungs.
Xu Zhifeng looked at Tang Xiaoai's resolute departure, his eyes full of disbelief. He really didn't expect that she would sign so simply.
…
Tang Xiaoai did not leave directly, but went to Li's house to clean up some of his belongings. If he wanted to leave and live, of course he couldn't go out empty-handed, as that would be suicidal.
The things she took were very simple, two sets of clothes each for spring, summer, autumn and winter. Then she took her salary card, which contained tens of thousands of dollars, which she had saved after working for several months. It was earned through her own hard work.
Not counting those from the Li family, she should take them away.
With basic living security in hand, Tang Xiaoai carried her luggage and left without delaying for a moment. She settled in a hotel that night, closed the door, and slept peacefully.
When Li Wenyan came back to Li's house, the house was already empty. The figures he could see as soon as he came back, the warm faces he could catch as soon as he came back, those breaths, those things that filled the house, came from her
The feminine scent exuded no longer existed. Now he opened the door, and what he breathed into his lungs was the biting air. The cold sofa and the lonely space suffocated him.
He turned on the light, letting the light dim the entire space, hoping to warm up the cold atmosphere. He walked to the bed, washed his face with his hands, and lay on the bed helplessly, his thoughts going blank.
Staring at a corner of the sofa with blurred eyes, he suddenly saw Tang Xiaoai sitting on it, holding a pen and reading documents seriously. He frowned for a while, wrote something on the document with a pen, and then raised his innocent little face.
, smiling at him, smiling so sweetly.
Li Wenyan's eyes wandered, and a feeling of softness arose in his heart. He sat up and wanted to walk towards the sofa, but as soon as he blinked, the man in front of him disappeared like smoke.
He closed his eyes and rubbed the center of his brows, and tiredly realized that it was his phantom. Suddenly he became restless and annoyed, so he shut himself into the bathroom and turned on the hot water to take a shower.
The first day was a busy day, and the next day was grandpa's funeral.
The funeral was held with great grandeur and aura. Relatives, friends of the Li family and friends from the shopping mall all came to attend Grandpa's funeral.
In the auditorium, cries of mourning could be heard from time to time, and the lung-splitting voices could not detect any hint of sadness.
Li Wenyan stood at the door of the auditorium to greet the guests. His whole figure was like a tiger with its teeth and claws removed. He was absent-minded to the guests coming and going. His eyes were red and there were no tears, but he was haggard from exhaustion. Compared to those who were crying and shouting.
Among relatives and friends, he is much quieter.
Tang Xiaoai didn't dare to appear at her grandfather's funeral, but she wanted to see her grandfather off for the last time.
So she hid far away and watched the scene inside the auditorium.
She also saw clearly the depressed look of Li Wenyan standing at the door, and her heart ached for a long time. She knew that she had also experienced Li Wenyan's sadness and the pain of the death of a loved one.
It was the pain of pulling out and transplanting the flesh and blood and memories of that person who had lived with him for the past few decades deep in his mind in an instant.
"Why come back?"
Tang Xiaoai was hiding behind a car when a voice suddenly sounded behind her. She turned around in shock and took a few steps back.
"You don't have to be afraid of me, because it's not me you're afraid of." Xu Zhifeng took a step closer to Tang Xiaoai, grabbing her eyes with an unprecedented serious expression.
"I'm not afraid of anyone!" Tang Xiaoai said steadily.
Xu Zhifeng sneered, "Really? Then what's the point of you coming back now."
"I came back to mourn Grandpa!" Tang Xiaoai glared at him.
"Is this what you're saying? If you want to mourn grandpa, you can just walk into the auditorium and let him receive you. And you, hiding here and secretly watching, are you looking at him?" Xu Zhifeng forced Tang Xiaoai with his eyes.
Excluding the possibility that she married Li Wenyan for the Li family's property, then her original intention was that she loved Li Wenyan? After all, last time in Thailand, she almost lost her own life in order to drug Li Wenyan!
It was not groundless speculation, but what Xu Zhifeng saw with his own eyes!
"You are a member of the Li family. Since you don't allow me to see grandpa, I'm sorry to bother you!" Tang Xiaoai didn't want to say anything more and turned around to leave.
Xu Zhifeng looked at her hurried away figure and smiled with an unknown but strange smile.
At the end of the funeral, the sun also set, and when no one was left, Tang Xiaoai came out of a small shop some distance away from the auditorium and came to Grandpa's auditorium.
The auditorium was very quiet, with only grandpa's kind smiling face hanging in the front.
Tang Xiaoai knelt down in front of her grandfather, kowtowed a few times, and with a heavy heart, she apologized, "Grandpa, thank you for your kindness to Xiaoai, but Xiaoai is sorry for you..."
"He's not the only one you're sorry for..." A magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the empty auditorium, echoing throughout the space like a ghost.
