Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Chapter 256 Gu Juncheng, Let's duel!

Lin Qingping remained silent for a moment.

It wasn't that she wanted a divorce; it was his attitude that told her they should get a divorce.

If it were simply that Chen Xia came to the capital looking for work, was tricked into becoming a prostitute, and was arrested by the police, and Chen Xia had no family members to contact, and the police found Gu Juncheng based on the name she gave, and Gu Juncheng went to bail her out because they were from the same hometown, as long as he spoke properly and proved with his actions that he was really just helping a fellow villager, she could understand.

Even though he thought of Chen Xia coming to the capital alone and not being able to find work, he introduced her to a job; even though Chen Xia had no money, he bought her a piece of clothing...

Even if he did all these things, as long as his attitude was: he was really just helping a fellow villager, he didn't waver between her and Chen Xia, and the person he firmly wanted to spend his life with was Lin Qingping...

As long as he does these things, she won't mention divorce.

But he didn't.

He asked her: What does she want to do?

Ah……

What can she do?

In a fit of anger, she could only say she wanted a divorce and that she would make room for the apartment.

She doesn't deny that there was an element of spite in her bringing up divorce. She believes that as long as he tries to win her back or remains firm in his attitude, he will never divorce her, and she might forgive him.

However, he didn't.

He only asked her: What do you want? Do you really want a divorce from me?

What should she say?

She smiled bitterly to herself, but said calmly, "Yes, Gu Juncheng, I want a divorce. I've already said I'll grant your wish."

I've already said I'd let you two be together, but you're still hesitating and wavering. What else can I do but get a divorce?

She stared at Gu Juncheng, who was calmer than she had imagined, just silently smoking.

After a long silence, he stubbed out his cigarette and asked her, "After the divorce... how will you live? Will you be okay?"

Hearing this, Lin Qingping laughed, but her heart was filled with bitterness. "Why can't I live well? I have money and a career, I have a house in the capital, how could I not be well? I will be fine, better than ever! Do you know what the popular saying in the city is? The happiest thing in life is to have money, children, and no husband! If you can give Zhiyuan to me, I will be even better."

“Lin Qingping…” He stood up and called her name.

She smiled at him and said, "You're not going to fight me for the inheritance, are you? That's impossible. My money is my money, the house is mine, and your money... is still mine. I can't give it to you."

He smiled wryly, "I won't compete. As for Zhiyuan, let me think about it."

So, does this mean you've agreed to a divorce?

Lin Qingping didn't expect it to happen so quickly...

It turns out that he had actually been thinking about divorce for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed so quickly.

Perhaps because everything went too smoothly and too quickly, Lin Qingping felt that the faint pain in her heart was swelling and aching like a sponge, blocking her heart and making it difficult to breathe.

"Okay, then think it over as soon as possible so we can process the paperwork quickly. Do you need to submit an application? I don't understand your process; is it more complicated than ours?" She turned her back, hot tears welling up in her eyes. She absolutely couldn't let them fall! She absolutely couldn't!

"Hmm." He only said one word before falling silent.

They didn't hear him leave the room, and the two of them just stood there, neither of them moving.

Just as Lin Qingping was about to say, "You should go now, I need to rest," she heard footsteps behind her. She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he was leaving, but unexpectedly, she suddenly felt a tightness around her.

He actually hugged her...

The familiar embrace no longer held warmth or affection; she only felt discomfort. The tighter he held her, the more uncomfortable she felt.

"Let me go!" she said in a low voice, afraid that her sobs would betray her. "We're getting a divorce. Is what you're doing illegal?"

"We're not divorced yet!" His voice was hoarse.

Suddenly, he turned her over and kissed her gently and repeatedly.

Lin Qingping struggled desperately, and finally bit him hard on the lips.

He felt the pain and regained some of his senses, loosening his grip on her.

Lin Qingping finally broke free and kicked him.

He didn't dodge or flinch; the kick landed squarely on his stomach.

Lin Qingping didn't care about the pain anymore; she just wiped her mouth vigorously and yelled, "Get out! Get out!"

There were actually some bloodstains on his lips, from where she bit him, but he didn't wipe them away. He lowered his head and silently left.

Lin Qingping quickly closed the door, buried her face in her pillow, and the tears she had been holding back finally burst forth.

Gu Juncheng stood at the closed door for a while before silently going downstairs.

Just as he got downstairs, a small figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere, leaped up, and aimed a small fist straight at his face.

He instinctively turned his head and dodged it.

Immediately afterwards, a sweeping leg attack came at his lower body, which he easily dodged.

"Gu Juncheng! Let's duel!" Zhiyuan's childish voice was low but fierce.

After saying that, Zhiyuan opened the door and his small figure darted into the night outside.

Gu Juncheng frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed him out.

Zhiyuan stood in the courtyard, already in a fighting stance.

This little guy is certainly agile and has even led the martial arts team to win awards in kindergarten performances, but can anyone actually fight him?

And he doesn't call me "Dad" anymore? He calls me Gu Juncheng?

He stood opposite Zhiyuan.

Zhiyuan said aggressively, "Gu Juncheng! Are you going to divorce my mother for that Chen guy?"

Gu Juncheng took a deep breath. "Kids, don't meddle in adults' business."

"Don't try to fool me with that!" Zhiyuan said angrily. "You, Gu Juncheng! You're such a person! Today, I'm here to fight you on behalf of my mother. If you win, you go with that Chen guy. If you lose, you apologize to my mother and live a good life with her from now on!"

Gu Juncheng stood there looking at him, without saying a word, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Gu Juncheng! Take this!" Zhiyuan was furious and kicked out with a flying kick!

Gu Juncheng slightly shifted to the side, dodging the attack.

Zhiyuan threw another punch, and the two exchanged blows. Gu Juncheng simply dodged without launching any offensive moves. When Zhiyuan finally got tired and launched another flying kick, Gu Juncheng grabbed his leg, pulled him into his arms, and held him close.

Zhiyuan continued to punch and kick in his arms, but to no avail; he couldn't even break free from Gu Juncheng's embrace.

He burst into tears in Gu Juncheng's arms, sobbing, "I lost... I can't beat you... I can't help my mother..."

“Zhiyuan…” Gu Juncheng’s voice was also a little choked.

“Gu Juncheng…” Zhiyuan cried in his arms, “Do you know what my mother once told me?”

"what?"

Zhiyuan cried so hard he could barely breathe, “My mom…my mom said…she said…Gu Dad and she will always be my parents…Gu Juncheng, you broke your promise, don’t you want my mom and me anymore?”
