You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 81

Bai Rong looked at Su Xuyan in disbelief, “Are you willing to divorce?”

“Provided that you’ll be available at all times.” Su Xuyan added.

“What if I’m still at work?” She still couldn’t believe what he said.

He agreed to divorce out of the blue. Moreover, she had not even managed to threaten him successfully.

“I will only look for you when you’re not working.” Su Xuyan said in a deep voice.

“How long will it be?” Bai Rong asked right after.

“You don’t have the rights to negotiate with me. That would be until I’m sick of it. Of course, you can choose not to divorce.” Su Xuyan raised the corners of his lips; there was bleakness in his eyes, “You better abide because I don’t really feel like divorcing now.”

“I promise. Now let’s go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. I can divorce without getting anything. I’ve brought the household register with me.” Bai Rong immediately agreed.

Su Xuyan felt an indescribable loss in his heart and walked ahead. She followed him behind; like she was afraid that he might regret it later.

Su Xuyan went back to the villa to get the residence booklet as well as the marriage certificate. There was a mysterious silence in the car. The closer he got to the Bureau, the more he realized that he didn’t want to divorce.

After he divorced her, she would marry another man; she would become the wife of another man, cook for another man and bear a child of another man. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

“You won’t get married right after the divorce, will you?” Su Xuyan asked coldly.

“I won’t.” Bai Rong answered determinedly.

Su Xuyan looked at her. She was soft and quiet. The sunlight that was shone at the side of her face further highlighted her scenery-like beautiful appearance which caused a faint throbbing that rippled circles in his heart. She was indeed a very beautiful woman.

He had decided to marry her at the first sight instead of Xing Jinnian. But it never crossed his mind that she meant nothing to Xing Bachuan.

“If I promise I’ll stop skirt-chasing, will you still want to get a divorce?” Su Xuyan asked. He became unusually irritated when he asked that question. That made him seem a little humbled because he was always puffed up with pride and arrogance.

“Just kidding.” Su Xuyan added. The man regretted the moment he said that. Who knew if she might agree to not divorce.

He had blocked every alternative way. The man was at the end of his wit’s.

They arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau after a while. He followed her on the stairs and felt a little flustered inexplicably.

He wanted to show her his goodness at the very last moment, “You can take your share of properties. I’ll transfer the ownership of the unit that you’re residing now to you in addition to another one million transferred to your account so that you can live a better life.”

“It’s alright. it’s not like you’ve stolen or earned them easily.” Bai Rong rejected his offer.

Su Xuyan fixed his gaze on her. He hoped she would demand an exorbitant amount at this moment so that he’d feel better and as a result, break the image of her noble and elegant attitude. But it happened that she didn’t want anything; not even the compensation of the loss of her precious youth.

“Being stubborn will not do any good for you. Why don’t you accept it?” Su Xuyan walked swiftly to her side.

Bai Rong raised a smile at the corners of her mouth, “We always like to water down problems with our own perspective, but we never consider even a bit what others truly want. Thank you, Mr. Su, for your kindness, but I really don’t need it.”

To be addressed as Mr. Su, he felt estranged and it made him feel immensely unbearable.

Su Xuyan handed the marriage certificate in a seemingly ready and indifferent manner and said, “We want a divorce.”

“Do you have any divorce agreement?”

“No. I’m not taking anything.” Bai Rong said softly. The staff looked at her with a strange face and then glanced at Su Xuyan.

She had an immaculate and soft appearance without any makeup on her face, but her eyes were a little red and swollen, yet her expression remained calm. Whereas he had a ruffian look and he frowned in agitation.

He doesn’t want to divorce; doesn’t want to divorce; doesn’t want to divorce.

Even though his mind was filled by these thoughts repeatedly, he seemed to be immovable physically.

The staff handed out a few forms and reminded them, “Sign your name on these forms; ponder about your decision before signing and after that, the divorce certificate will be ready within half an hour. You will have nothing left with each other following that.”

Bai Rong readily signed her name on the forms upon receiving it. Su Xuyan felt odd when he saw her signing her name unhesitatingly, therefore he put on his signature on the forms as well.

Bai Rong handed the forms to the staff but Su Xuyan hesitated. “Are you going to submit the form?” The staff asked him. His mind went blank and handed the forms to the staff without further thought.

He saw the staff stamping the documents for approval. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Every sound created by the stamp penetrated deep into his heart. There was no relationship nor ties between the both of them anymore.

“Do you fancy a drink? It takes a while for the divorce certificate anyway.” Su Xuyan said softly to Bai Rong but she shook her head.

“Please make the payment before you leave.” The staff said.

“Okay. How much?” Bai Rong said while taking the purse from her bag.

“I’ll pay.” Su Xuyan said while drawing the black card from his wallet and handed it to the staff.

The staff rolled his eyes at him, “10 bucks.” Bai Rong handed the money to the staff. There was an uneasiness rising in his heart.

It suddenly dawned on him that he was very open-handed to the other women outside. He bought them designer bags, luxury cars, villas and jewelries, but he never once bought her any valuables. Perhaps the most expensive thing was the thrown away roses.

Oh right! He bought her a dress, a pair of shoes and a set of earrings previously. But that didn’t worth much. Would she put them on in the future?

“Please take your invalid marriage certificate and divorce certificate.” Upon hearing what the staff said, Su Xuyan came back to his senses and felt uncomfortable as he looked at divorce certificate. “The divorce processing fee is so cheap. No wonder so many people get divorced. The fee should be higher.”

The staff didn’t bother to pay him any heed.

Bai Rong looked at the divorce certificate with a surreal feeling. She finally got divorced and regained her long-awaited freedom.

She kept the marriage certificate and divorce certificate in her bag and walked outside. He wanted to stop her but no words came out of his mouth.

He threw the invalidated marriage certificate and divorce certificate into the trash bin then walked out and smoked several cigarettes in his car.

He could still recall when he first met Bai Rong when she was still a student. She walked out from the school gate wearing a sky blue skirt, absolutely stunning; she carried herself elegantly with a hard-to-get manner and lofty aptitude. He had chosen her because of her self-esteem.

Half an hour later, Su Xuyan picked up the invalidated marriage certificate from the trash bin and opened it. In the photo, Bai Rong furrowed her brows slightly and pursed her lips; but her eyes were bright, full of hope and charming. Her facial features were beautiful and soul-stirring… yet he lost her.

He lost her.
