479 Escape from Reality

His client had printed the divorce agreement. As long as Dong Nan came to visit him at the hospital, he would make this request.

In Bao Xu’s opinion, this was only a matter of time. He might as well take the initiative. Perhaps the two children would still have a place in Dong Nan’s heart.

“Even you don’t believe me?” Dong Nan looked at Bao Xu with a mournful expression. She had just seen a ray of hope in her life, but her husband’s calm words had snuffed out her only hope.

The person who should have understood and believed in her the most had chosen to leave her at this time.

Dong Nan suddenly felt that everything she had done had lost its meaning. No one could understand her and no one was willing to sympathize with her.

“Do I need to trust you?” Bao Xu maintained his smile. However, Dong Nan could see endless coldness and distance from there.

“You really think so?” Dong Nan suddenly sneered. The scene in front of her was absurd.

“Sign it. You’ll be free and you won’t have to visit me in the future. Aren’t you satisfied with what I’ve said?” Bao Xu looked at Dong Nan and asked in confusion.

After all, she was the one who had an affair. He, Bao Xu, had chosen to forgive her and get a divorce. He had even left all his assets to her in the hope that she would treat her children and elderly well.

“I won’t!” Dong Nan suddenly took the divorce agreement from Bao Xu’s hands and tore it into pieces before throwing it into the trash can.

“It’s meaningless for you to do this. We’ve been husband and wife for a time; let’s part on good terms,” Bao Xu said indifferently as he shook his head.

“Do you think I’m humiliating you? Bao Xu, you’re so selfish. Am I that cheap? What you heard must be true? I didn’t tell you what the two children and I are going through every day, did I? Do you understand the feeling of living every moment in fear?” Dong Nan was already crying hysterically. She was pouring out the grievances and anger in her heart.

“But even so, I still didn’t give up. After all, living shamelessly is better than dying. I did go against my conscience. I framed President Chu under Zhou Hao’s instructions, but is that what I want? If we didn’t do that, we’ll all die!” Dong Nan sat on the chair and said weakly.

“As for you, you’re only concerned about my affair and how to break away. Divorce is just a cowardly way for you to escape,” Dong Nan said in despair, looking at Bao Xu, who was lying on the bed with a calm expression.

“You can think whatever you want.” Bao Xu closed his eyes slowly after he finished speaking. His thoughts were in a mess.

After a while, Dong Nan got up from her seat.

Before she walked out of the ward, she slowly said, “Bao Xu, you’ve really disappointed me.”

The door opened and closed with a click.

Elsewhere, after leaving Qinghe Village, Chu Ning returned to Jinghu District.

At the same time, Huang Fang, Sun Ru, and Lu Chao had already appeared at the entrance of Chu Ning’s villa. They had earlier received the news that Chu Ning was going to have an impromptu meeting.

Normally, people should have gotten off work at this time, but Chu Ning had said before the recruitment that if she was determined to have a meeting, these people must respond to her call even if it was early in the morning or late at night.

Even if they were out of town, they had to open a video conference.

“Sun Ru, give me an account of the current financial situation of the Soaring Clouds Group,” Chu Ning said as she sat in the main seat and looked at Sun Ru.

“Alright, President Chu.” Sun Ru coughed lightly and said, “As of 9 o’clock tonight, the Soaring Clouds Group’s net income for the day is 236,854.60 yuan, and the income comes from Cloud Shopping. Today’s cost budget is 168,321.54 yuan, which includes the employee salary, construction expenses, and the amount of taxes payable…”

Sun Ru reported in great detail as she spoke, looking at the folder in her hand.

She was now completely convinced of Chu Ning’s ability.

This young girl, who was actually quite a few years younger than her, was indeed a genius.

Now, as the director of the Soaring Clouds Group’s finance department, she already had five employees under her. This was only the beginning. As the Soaring Clouds Group’s business continued to expand, her authority would only grow.

A few minutes later, Sun Ru finished her report.
