Chapter 1821: Divorce at Last (7)

In fact, it wasn’t really an attack; it was probably just trying to protect the Ruanlin Family.

"That’s good." Jiaojiao nodded, also breathing a sigh of relief.

Beside them, Ruan Lei leaned in with a cheeky grin and squeezed between the two: "Jiaojiao, help your brother and scoop a bowl of porridge, will you?"

"No." Jiaojiao refused crisply.

"Why not?" Ruan Lei asked, pulling a serious face.

"Want me to scoop it for you?" Duan Xi asked coldly.

"..." Ruan Lei.

Forget it, he wanted to live a few more years.

Jiaojiao sat on the side watching his cowardly look, chuckling, while Ruan Feng placed the separated dumpling skin into her bowl. Just as Jiaojiao was about to put it in her mouth, Duan Xi’s chopsticks reached over and tossed it back into Ruan Feng’s bowl before giving her the one he had separated.

"..." Ruan Feng.

Never mind, he’s already the brother-in-law; better to let it go.

After finishing breakfast, Ruan Feng went to the hotel, first to find Ruan Hao, asking him to help find a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement. He must act fast; otherwise, he’s afraid Wu Le might change her mind.

Ruan Hao introduced the hotel’s designated lawyer to him, who worked quickly and printed out the agreement that afternoon.

Once the agreement was ready, Ruan Feng invited Ruan Jianmin to the hotel and showed him the divorce agreement.

"Dad, if there’s anything you’re not satisfied with, feel free to bring it up." Ruan Feng said.

Ruan Jianmin glanced over it briefly, then looked up and asked, "Did your mother agree?"

"She agreed last night." Ruan Feng replied.

Ruan Jianmin fell silent.

After a long pause, he sighed and said, "Since it’s this way, I have no objections; it’s my fault to her."

After the truth about Chen Hong came to light, Ruan Jianmin had considered repairing his relationship with Wu Le, after all, there’s bound to be feelings along this journey.

But every time Wu Le acted like a porcupine whenever he approached, speaking increasingly harshly, even if he did something not to her liking, she’d bring up that incident repeatedly.

Ruan Jianmin, though guilty, had gradually been worn down by her over the years.

All these years, they weren’t like a couple; their two sons were no longer close to him. This family was no longer a family; ending this twisted home seemed like a relief for everyone.

Ruan Jianmin signed the divorce agreement without hesitation. Ruan Feng, seeing the straightforward signature, felt a chill in his gaze. After his father signed, he picked up the agreement and said, "Dad, Xiaoqun is still young, and now it’s a crucial stage in high school. If he doesn’t bring it up himself, I hope you won’t mention this to him. I’ll tell him when the time is right."

Ruan Jianmin remained silent and then nodded.

Ruan Feng picked up the agreement and left. After he left, Ruan Jianmin sat on the sofa covering his eyes, motionless for a long time.

Wu Le hadn’t expected Ruan Feng to move so quickly; the night before, her agreement to divorce wasn’t without impulse, especially when Ruan Feng knelt and begged her.

Now seeing Ruan Feng bringing the divorce agreement the next day, she was momentarily unsure how to react.

Ruan Feng explained the contents of the agreement to her: "Dad leaves with nothing; Xiaoqun’s custody goes to you."

"Did your dad agree?"

Upon hearing this, Ruan Feng felt somewhat complicated but nodded: "Mom, please don’t delay any longer; you’ve both been torturing each other for three years. Don’t continue this. For Xiaoqun’s sake, to prevent his distraction, I’ll temporarily keep it from him and tell him when the time is right."

After speaking, Ruan Feng handed the pen to Wu Le.
