Lu Tianyang glanced at the title of the divorce agreement, instantly filled with rage. "Mom, you had her sign this?" He stared wide-eyed in disbelief, unable to comprehend that this foolish woman was so eager to leave him just to be with Xiao Lin.
"This agreement has been prepared by your mother long ago. You two were bound to divorce sooner or later. Now that you and Wan Jing have been intimate, are you really not going to marry her? Wan Jing is not like those little starlets out there; once you're done with them, it's over." Regardless of the relationship between the Lu Family and the Fu Family, the old man cared for Fu Wan Jing and would not stand by while they behaved like this.
"Mom, I want to tell you right now that I haven't touched Wan Jing, and I won't divorce Ye Ya." Lu Tianyang's head was still spinning; he didn’t dare drive himself and called a taxi straight back to Yiju Mountain Villa.
When Ye Ya drove back to Yiju Mountain Villa, it was nearly eleven o'clock. Guo Ma was restless; all the servants had gone to bed, but she couldn't sleep.
Seeing Ye Ya return looking exhausted, she hurried over. "Lady, where is the young master?"
"Guo Ma, I'm very tired and don't want to talk about him," Ye Ya replied as she headed upstairs, thinking about moving out tomorrow. Staying here only brought discomfort. Looking at Du Huiru, it seemed the divorce agreement had been prepared long ago, anticipating this day. Ironically, she feared that Du Huiru might change her mind and not go through with the divorce from Lu Tianyang.
The wealthy truly had foresight; they had her sign a property waiver long ago. Well, she didn’t want Lu Tianyang's wealth anyway.
Back in her room, Ye Ya pulled out a suitcase and stared at the wardrobe full of clothes, unsure how to pack. There were also Chen Chen's things—so many items that it seemed she would have to sort through them slowly. However, while these clothes were easy to organize, how could she sort out her own feelings?
She really didn’t want their relationship to reach this point. Was it that they couldn’t love each other or that their love was too shallow to endure?
Lu Tianyang returned home and asked Guo Ma, who was preparing to rest, "Guo Ma, has Lady come back?"
"She has returned, young master. Did you have a fight? She didn't look well," Guo Ma observed Lu Tianyang's grim expression; it seemed they must have had a big argument.
"Mm." Lu Tianyang replied curtly as he strode back into his room. Upon opening the door, he saw two large suitcases. Watching her pack her clothes, he approached her. "What are you doing? Who agreed to your divorce?"
"Lu Tianyang, I've already signed it. I won’t take your property; I'm just packing my own things. Don’t worry; I know what I’m doing. I won’t cling to you or take your wealth. I’ll leave just as I came." She didn’t want any of the clothes or jewelry he had bought for her; she only wanted to retain a little dignity for herself—she didn’t want to be looked down upon by the Lu Family for the rest of her life.
"I won’t allow it!" Lu Tianyang pulled her away and accidentally knocked over the suitcase.
Ye Ya no longer wanted to struggle. The strong smell of alcohol lingered on Lu Tianyang, and she remembered his promise not to get so drunk again. He ignored her words and went to bed with Fu Wan Jing.
“Do we have to fight like this every time, Lu Tianyang? Aren't you tired of it?” Ye Ya released her grip and sat on the bed, feeling exhausted.
“If we’re not getting a divorce, then you’re not leaving,” Lu Tianyang rubbed his forehead. “Wife, I didn’t touch her.”
“You were both in each other’s arms, without a stitch of clothing. Who would believe that?” Ye Ya glared at Fu Wan Jing, who looked as if nothing had happened.
“You were with Long Shaotang without clothes too. Should I believe you then? Why can’t you trust me?” Lu Tianyang felt he was digging his own grave. He only wanted to provoke her a little, to keep her from being with Xiao Lin. The effects of the alcohol were too strong, leading him to be taken advantage of by Wan Jing.
“Lu Tianyang, you’ve said it yourself; you don’t really trust me, do you? Fine, I’m just a fickle woman unworthy of you. Is that what you want to hear?” Ye Ya felt a pang in her heart. If it weren’t for Long Shaotang being beaten so badly by them, she might have truly wanted to destroy him—the bastard who tarnished her reputation.
“I don’t distrust you. I just don’t want you with Xiao Lin. You still went to see him; why won’t you listen to me?”
“I went to see Xiao Lin openly and honestly; I didn’t do anything shameful. You went to see Fu Wan Jing and slept with her—Lu Tianyang, that’s a different matter.” After saying this, Ye Ya felt utterly drained—not just physically but emotionally as well.
“I didn’t touch her!” Lu Tianyang shouted.
“Just go. I don’t want to argue with you anymore.” After speaking, Ye Ya felt something was off. “This is your home; I should be the one leaving. Tonight I’ll sleep with Chen Chen, and tomorrow I’ll move out. You can sleep with whoever you want.”
Lu Tianyang grabbed her forcefully and shouted, “This is your home; you’re not leaving!”
Ye Ya glared at him fiercely. “Let go of me!”
“I won’t let go. We’ll talk about this tomorrow. Tonight I’ll sleep in the study to cool off. You’re always so quick to talk about divorce—are you really that eager to leave me? So you can be with Xiao Lin instead?”
Ye Ya smiled slightly, "That's right, Xiao Lin is gentle and considerate, I don't know how many times better he is than you. If you were a woman, would you choose someone like yourself or Xiao Lin?"
This statement completely ignited Lu Tianyang's anger. He gripped her hand tightly, unable to contain himself. Ye Ya frowned slightly, "Let go of me."
"I'm not letting go. Let's see if Xiao Lin is better or if I am," Lu Tianyang said as he pushed her onto the bed, tearing her clothes apart.
"Lu Tianyang, you're inhuman! Let go of me, it hurts!" Ye Ya couldn't stand his brutality; she felt pain all over her body.
"You dared to say you would go find Xiao Lin, Ye Ya. You really have the guts to say that. Quickly say it, you are mine!" Lu Tianyang was driven mad by her words; how could she dare to say Xiao Lin was better? This was the only way he could make her submit.
Ye Ya bit her lip, "Xiao Lin is better. He is so much better than you, ah, it hurts!" Lu Tianyang was furious and thrust harder, "Say it again, who is better?"
"You bastard! What do you have that can compare to him? Let go of me!" Ye Ya stubbornly refused to back down, like a bull refusing to yield. Lu Tianyang was so enraged that he lost all reason.
Afterward, Ye Ya felt pain all over her body. She had no strength left to struggle. She had shouted for so long for this man to let her go and had already lost hope.
"Ye Ya, say it again. Say you won't leave. Say I'm better than Xiao Lin. Hurry up, or don't think about getting out of bed tonight."
Ye Ya sighed, "Who would want you? Maybe you're still involved with Fu Wan Jing. You know what? I feel so dirty right now."
"I'm not dead yet, woman! You think you can just walk away? Don't even think about it; I won't agree to that."
Ye Ya gasped, "Lu Tianyang, you're inhuman! Let go of me!"
"Not a chance," Lu Tianyang said fiercely. Ye Ya couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep. Only then did Lu Tianyang finally release her.
After an intense round of sports, Lu Tianyang's drunkenness had diminished significantly. Looking at the bruises on Ye Ya's body, he realized just how fierce he had been earlier. He frowned slightly and walked into the bathroom to fetch a warm towel, gently cleaning her wounds bit by bit.
"Damn woman, is it really that hard to say something nice?" Lu Tianyang sighed as he covered her with a blanket. Ye Ya was too exhausted to protest any further.
The next morning, when she woke up, she found Lu Tianyang sleeping beside her. The craziness of the previous night ignited a surge of anger within Ye Ya. She kicked him hard, nearly pushing him off the bed, but in doing so, she aggravated her own pain, causing her to grimace.
"Wife, why are you being so fierce? What's wrong?" Lu Tianyang noticed her unpleasant expression and asked with concern.
Damn it, why was he only asking her what was wrong now? Why didn’t he reflect on what he had done last night? It was infuriating.
"Lu Tianyang, I'm not here for anything else today; I want a divorce. I'm going to sue you for marital rape," Ye Ya declared as she attempted to get out of bed. However, the pain forced her to sit back down.
"I'm sorry," Lu Tianyang panicked. He had gotten carried away last night and had been a bit rough; it was all in the heat of the moment.
"It's too late. I want a divorce," Ye Ya was furious. Counting all the grievances one by one, she was determined to end this marriage; she could no longer endure this life.
"I won't allow it. Don't even think about it."
Just then, Ye Ya's phone rang. She picked it up and glanced at the screen; Lu Tianyang saw it too. Damn it, Xiao Lin just wouldn't quit.
He snatched the phone from her hand. "You better not call my wife again, Xiao. I won't let you off easily."
"Lu Tianyang, what are you doing?" Ye Ya tried to grab the phone back, but he wouldn't let go. She stood up from the bed and walked over to him.
"Lu Tianyang, you bastard!" Ye Ya was livid; he truly infuriated her. Physically, she couldn't match his strength, and feeling unwell made things worse. In an instant, she stumbled and fell to the ground.
“Hey, Lu Tianyang, what did you do to Ye Ya? Xiao Ya, are you okay? I’m coming over right now.” Xiao Lin heard them arguing on the phone and it seemed like Ye Ya was hurt. That bastard Lu Tianyang, who knows what he did to her this time.
“Wife, are you alright? Should I call a doctor to check on you?” Lu Tianyang helped her up from the floor, feeling deeply guilty.
“Do you want to embarrass me in front of the whole world?” Ye Ya pushed his hand away. “Lu Tianyang, I want a divorce. I can’t take this anymore.”
“You can forget about it. If you dare to be with Xiao Lin, I’ll kill him,” Lu Tianyang shouted. Ye Ya looked at him and felt a wave of terror wash over her. “If you dare to be with him, I’ll kill him.”
“You’re crazy, Lu Tianyang. You’ve lost your mind.” Ye Ya looked at his expression, feeling a bit frightened.
Lu Tianyang placed her on the bed. “I am crazy; you drove me to this. Don’t move around. I’m going to apply some medicine on you.”
Ye Ya threw a pillow at him. “Don’t touch me again! Get lost!”
Lu Tianyang took out a tube of ointment from the bedside. “You foolish woman, just listen and let me put some medicine on you.”
“I don’t want it! If you touch me again, I’ll die right in front of you!” As soon as Ye Ya finished speaking, Lu Tianyang sealed her lips with his own, daring her to say another word.
