Chapter 1 Wedding Anniversary Turns into Divorce Celebration
At night, the prosperity of Jiangcheng can be seen at a glance.
A grand reception to celebrate the fifth wedding anniversary is being held in the most luxurious hotel in Jiangcheng.
The protagonists tonight are none other than Shaodong Lu Xiangning of the top conglomerate Lu Group, and his wife Li Zao.
Lu Xiangning appeared in a black haute couture suit. He had full brows, a straight nose, and clear and sharp facial contours, but his eyes and lips were very light. When he smiled slightly, he perfectly combined calmness, restraint, and elegance.
.
Side by side, Li Zao did not lose at all. She looked stunning in a gorgeous dress, paired with a huge diamond necklace. She was high-profile yet elegant. Her delicate and bright facial features and clean and elegant makeup made her stand out among all the beauties.
"You just like this kind of vanity cocktail party, are you interesting?" Lu Xiangning complained in a low voice without showing any emotion.
Li Zao held his arm and walked swayingly. Knowing that he was uncomfortable in such a show of affection, he said: "Okay, you go up and say a few words to express your gratitude, and leave the rest to me, right?"
"
"Still talking? What to say?"
"say you Love Me."
"..."
Li Zao ignored it, smiled, and said coquettishly at him, "Honey, it's our fifth anniversary. I have carefully planned it for three months, but I didn't let you kiss me in public."
In the eyes of many guests, this scene was just a young couple flirting, and everyone was envious. They both sincerely and not sincerely praised them for their perfect match.
Just when everyone's eyes were focused on this talented couple, Lu Xiangning's cell phone suddenly rang.
Li Zao's heart trembled, and his charming smile was instantly covered with frost.
Lu Xiangning looked down, turned away, and picked up the phone, "Hello?"
Li Zao couldn't hear what the person on the other end of the phone said, but when he saw Lu Xiangning's sudden frown, he guessed that it was most likely Zhao Zichu who was in trouble again.
Since she returned to China three months ago, she has been injured several times from her hair down to her fingernails.
Sure enough, Lu Xiangning hung up the phone, turned around and politely said "I have something to do" and left.
Li Zao grabbed him, his smile remained unchanged, and his tone was quite restrained, "My dear, is there anything more important today than our fifth wedding anniversary?"
Lu Xiangning visibly twitched his arm, feeling unclear about his emotions and anger, "Life is at stake, let go."
Li Zao sensed his strength and reluctantly compromised, "Can you at least finish your words before you go? With so many people watching, you can't give me any face?"
However, Lu Xiangning couldn't wait a second and unceremoniously took his arm out of her hand, turned around and left.
It's all the attention, but it's unexpected.
"Lu Xiangning," Li Zao suddenly shouted loudly, "If you dare to leave today, then I will divorce you!"
The place that was originally bustling with people suddenly became audible, and everyone looked at Li Zao in surprise.
It's not that the sentence itself is weird, but that when it comes out of Li Zao's mouth, it's like a monkey speaking human language, which is funny.
Everyone looked at Li Zao like a monkey.
Lu Xiangning didn't take it seriously either.
He just paused for half a second, without even turning his head, and said ridiculously, "What are you doing?!"
Looking at his resolute departure, Li Zao's heart was instantly cut open by a thorn that had been stuck in his heart for five years, and blood flowed freely.
This thorn pricked her for five years, and she endured it for five years.
The onlookers began to whisper.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. Did the young couple quarrel?"
"On such a big day, no matter how noisy you are, why don't you just go home and do it in public?"
"Mr. Lu has left his wife now. Are those rumors true?"
"After all, it's just a wedding. There is no emotional foundation. There is a huge gap between the two in every aspect. They can't develop feelings for many years. If you don't love, you don't love."
"Zhao Zichu has returned to China."
"No wonder..."
Faced with the doubts from hundreds of pairs of eyes and the sarcastic comments from those who were gloating over someone else's misfortune, Li Zao felt like her whole body was being burned densely. She gritted her teeth, clenched her hands into fists, and forced herself to calm down.
She took a deep breath, adjusted the curvature of her lips, raised her chin slightly, and strode onto the stage with her head held high.
With light steps and a bright smile, she took the microphone from the emcee's hand unhurriedly and said a gentle thank you.
With her dignified and generous demeanor, everyone thought she was going to give a welcome speech, so they consciously kept silent.
"Good evening, everyone," Li Zaoluo looked at the audience generously, "Today is the fifth wedding anniversary of Lu Xiangning and I. Thank you for your love and taking time out of your busy schedule to come here. We are honored."
Although she came from a bad background, her five years as a rich lady were not for nothing. Even if her heart was bleeding, she could still maintain the dignity and elegance she deserved on her face.
"At the same time, today is also the divorce celebration for Lu Xiangning and I. After tonight, he and I will have nothing to do with weddings and funerals. Finally, I wish you all a happy family."
The whole audience was stunned.
By the time everyone reacted, the person was already gone.
The wedding anniversary suddenly turned into a divorce celebration. The hero and heroine both disappeared. You can imagine how chaotic the scene was.
Li Zao drove the car forward, letting tears flow freely.
She swore that this was the last time she shed tears for this man.
From the day she married Lu Xiangning, she knew her role, to pay off the debts of the Li family, which was facing bankruptcy, and to cheer Lu Xiangning, who was seriously injured in a car accident.
Lu Xiangning got into a car accident precisely because he eloped with Zhao Zichu.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or God's will, but on the third day of the wedding, the man who was sentenced to death by the hospital woke up unexpectedly.
Everyone said that she was the lucky star of the Lu family.
What followed was a long period of rehabilitation. Lu Xiangning did not accept this marriage at first, but when he could not even do something as simple as eating and washing his face, and even when he needed someone to relieve himself, he could only accept this.
A quiet, well-behaved and caring little daughter-in-law.
Five years have passed. Lu Xiangning has already recovered, and they have become a loving couple recognized by their relatives and friends.
But only Li Zao knew that Zhao Zichu had been like a thorn in her heart over the years.
The more she loves Lu Xiangning, the deeper this thorn pierces her, and that pain reminds her all the time that Lu Xiangning loves someone else.
Now, Zhao Zichu has returned to China.
It’s time to pull out this thorn...
——
On the leafy street, Li Zao drove his car forward.
The phone kept ringing, but she ignored it, stepped on the accelerator, and accelerated like crazy.
Ever since Li Zao was given to the Lu family by Li Jianxun to pay off his debt, she has become the link between Li Jianxun and the Lu family. In the past five years, Li Jianxun has taken advantage of his status as Lu Xiangning's father-in-law, and his net worth has risen again and again. The Li family has also achieved a class leap, barely hooking up with the Lu family.
I have gained access to the upper-class business district.
Now that Li Zao has announced his divorce in public, the one who is most anxious and opposed is definitely Li Jianxun.
The ringtone was so stubborn that Li Zao impatiently slipped it.
Before she could speak, Li Jianxun's furious voice came out, "Li Zao, what's the matter with you? Can you talk about something as big as divorce? Where are you now? I don't care where you are, get out of the way immediately.
Go home and apologize."
"Your father and I have invested half of our net worth in Tianchi Mall, which is only halfway through. Wenrun's investment and Haihua's projects are only possible because of Lu Xiangning. If you say you want a divorce, then you might as well kill me.
.”
Li Zao didn't reply. Li Jianxun was afraid that speaking harshly would be counterproductive, so he changed his tone and continued to persuade, "How can a couple not quarrel, quarrel, quarrel, don't joke about divorce. Li Zao, you have
If you are unhappy, tell dad. Dad will always be your support. But you can never divorce this marriage."
When her mercenary father talked to her about the deep love between father and daughter, Li Zao only wanted to send him one word - bah!
At this time, someone suddenly jumped out from the green belt next to it.
