When Su Guyan and Ye Xunhuan arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, they didn’t see Qiu Ruoxi, which made Ye Xunhuan let out a sigh of relief.

Maybe this time, Qiu Ruoxi might just go to work like last time and not show up.

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan began to pray silently that Qiu Ruoxi wouldn’t come, wouldn’t appear here.

After all, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi had lived together for more than half a year; how could there really be no feelings at all?

After all, who can truly be unfeeling?

During these past six months, they had started to understand each other, and Qiu Ruoxi had more than once revealed her true feelings, letting Ye Xunhuan know that she actually liked him, that he mattered to her!

If Ye Xunhuan could be like other men, perhaps by now he and Qiu Ruoxi would have already reached a happy ending.

But unfortunately, Ye Xunhuan wasn’t like other men. In this life, it was almost destined that he wouldn’t be able to spend it with only one woman, Qiu Ruoxi.

And Qiu Ruoxi was a very strong-willed woman, so if they were together, it was destined that there would be endless friction!

Even if Ye Xunhuan always acted meekly in front of Qiu Ruoxi, it would still be the same.

After all, what woman on earth could tolerate her man finding another woman outside, then another?

Especially since Ye Xunhuan didn’t even know how many more he wanted to find.

With one Su Guyan, Qiu Ruoxi could tolerate it. After all, the situation with Su Guyan and Ye Xunhuan was very complicated, and at that time she hadn’t yet appeared.

But the others, Qiu Ruoxi might not be able to bear.

Otherwise, Qiu Ruoxi wouldn’t have given Ye Xunhuan half a year to sort things out himself.

Now the two of them had erupted into conflict, would such a strong-willed woman like Qiu Ruoxi not come?

Obviously, that’s impossible.

At this moment, Qiu Ruoxi was already on her way.

But Ye Xunhuan didn’t know any of this; he was still silently praying that Qiu Ruoxi wouldn’t come. Otherwise, if they didn’t get divorced today, he really might have no way to back out!

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s slightly nervous and uneasy face, Su Guyan smiled and said, "What’s wrong, are you scared?"

"How could I be scared? It’s just a divorce..."

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s stubborn denial, Su Guyan chuckled and said, "No need to act tough in front of me, I know you too well!"

"Xunhuan, if you regret it now, there’s still time. When Qiu Ruoxi really gets here, it won’t be so easy to go back on your decision!"

"Why would I regret it?" Ye Xunhuan maintained his stubborn facade, "Today, I’m determined to show this woman what I’m made of!"

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s stubborn pride, Su Guyan shook her head with a bitter smile, "You, truly... Let’s see how long you can keep this up!"

Ye Xunhuan said nothing and waited quietly, but as time passed, the tension on his face grew more pronounced.

After some time, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but ask Su Guyan, "Guyan, do you think she will come?"

"She will!" Su Guyan replied to Ye Xunhuan with absolute certainty.

"How do you know?"

"Because I’m a woman," Su Guyan responded leisurely, "I understand women, and your wife is a very proud person. You won’t give her face, she won’t give you face either!"

"You push her to the edge, and she’d dare to drag you down with her; everyone suffers!"

Ye Xunhuan’s lips twitched slightly, "Isn’t that a bit much?"

"Just wait and see," Su Guyan said with a half-smile, "Besides, after divorcing you, there’s no shortage of men for Qiu Ruoxi!"

"As long as she’s willing, there are countless men in Zhonghai who’d want to marry her!"

"And there are plenty of women willing to marry me!" Ye Xunhuan shrugged.

"Xunhuan, will it kill you to admit defeat?" Su Guyan sighed helplessly, looking at Ye Xunhuan’s forced demeanor, "Clearly you can’t let go, so why pretend?"

"Admitting defeat to your wife isn’t shameful."

Gently, Su Guyan advised Ye Xunhuan.

If Ye Xunhuan continued with his stubborn act, if Qiu Ruoxi came, they were almost certainly heading into the Civil Affairs Bureau to exchange their marriage certificate for a divorce decree.

"Besides, it’s not Qiu Ruoxi’s fault; it’s your fault in the first place."

Although Su Guyan was a rival to Qiu Ruoxi, she still spoke up for Qiu Ruoxi and every word was fair.

"Moreover, this is the wife your mother chose for you. If you divorce her, would you be letting Aunt Qin down?"

Before Ye Xunhuan could speak, Su Guyan continued, "Put yourself in Qiu Ruoxi’s shoes. Could you tolerate it indefinitely?"

"Let Qiu Ruoxi handle us; it’s not something a man can resolve!"

"And women’s battles aren’t as irreconcilable as you think."

With Su Guyan’s words ringing in his ears, Ye Xunhuan had to ask, "Guyan, do you really not want me to divorce Ruoxi?"

"It’s not that I don’t want to; it’s just unnecessary," Su Guyan said calmly, "Even if you divorce, I won’t marry you. Who knows who’ll benefit then?"

"It’s better that Qiu Ruoxi remains your wife; besides being a bit cold, she’s quite good otherwise."

Su Guyan’s words were completely sincere. Besides being a bit cold, Qiu Ruoxi may use any means necessary in business, but she’s not a bad person and has been quite tolerant of Ye Xunhuan.

Changed to another woman, who knows if she could be as good as Qiu Ruoxi!

Most importantly, this was the wife Qin Fenghuang chose for Ye Xunhuan. Though no one knew why Qin Fenghuang wanted Ye Xunhuan to marry Qiu Ruoxi,

there had to be a reason. Otherwise, Qin Fenghuang wouldn’t have done it.

But what that reason was, Su Guyan didn’t know.

Because Qin Fenghuang was no longer around.

Time had to unravel all these mysteries.

"Xunhuan, can you truly let go of Qiu Ruoxi?" Su Guyan softly asked, "You can’t let go; you’re just trying to spite Qiu Ruoxi!"

"When the anger fades and dissipates, then what?" Su Guyan sighed, "Go after her for remarriage, and I’m telling you, though I don’t know Ruoxi well and we haven’t interacted much, as a woman, especially like Ruoxi, once divorced, remarriage is but a dream!"

"Are you suggesting I leave?"

Su Guyan opened her mouth as if to say something but then seemed to see something, sighing softly, "Even if you want to leave now, it’s too late!"

"What do you mean?"

"See for yourself!" Su Guyan gestured towards the parking lot with her delicate finger.

Following Su Guyan’s gesture, Ye Xunhuan instantly saw Qiu Ruoxi’s car!
