Chapter 735: Another divorce?

What surprised Chen Yang was that the Chu family didn't send anyone over. When it got light, the person who appeared before him was Luosen.

Another hour passed, and Chu Min also came from Modu under the escort of her bodyguards.

She just hugged Chen Yang briefly, then drove everyone out of the villa, leaving only her and Chu Ning as sisters.

Chen Yang didn't know what Chu Min wanted to discuss with Chu Ning, so he could only wait outside patiently. Bored, he asked Luosen curiously: "Luosen big brother, why didn't Chu Ning's family come over?"

Luosen sighed and said: "They can't persuade Chu Ning; coming over would only be more awkward. They said to let Chu Min first do some ideological work with her, and if that doesn't work, think of other ways."

Upon hearing that, Chen Yang lowered his voice and asked him: "They don't have any objections to me, do they?"

Luosen gave a wry smile and said: "To say they have no objections would be lying to you. But your separation was actually orchestrated by Chu Ning's mother. If they really wanted to quibble, they wouldn't be in the right either."

Chen Yang instantly let out a sigh of relief.

Luosen saw this and soothed him in a gentle tone: "Chen Yang, you shouldn't worry too much about this. As far as I know, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are quite pleased with you. The old man's attitude has also changed a lot. Even if you go to Yangcheng, there won't be too much trouble."

Chen Yang hadn't expected that his father-in-law, whom he hadn't met yet, also supported him, and he felt warm inside. He suddenly thought of someone and asked again: "What's Chu Ning's brother's attitude?"

Luosen laughed: "Chu Zhengfeng isn't unreasonable. When you two split up, he actually held opposing views."

Upon hearing that, Chen Yang's mood immediately lightened. He then shifted the topic to their cooperation in Yangcheng.

"The new factory building of the electronics plant has been completed, and the foundation of the neighboring residential area has also been laid." Talking about work, Luosen's voice became excited. He proudly told Chen Yang: "Our company has obtained the top-grade qualification for general contracting of construction projects, and we've upgraded our construction equipment. After about a month of preparation, the Old Hundreds Financial Building in Zhujiang New City can break ground. By then, you must definitely come in person to attend the groundbreaking ceremony!"

Chen Yang first offered a bunch of congratulations, then politely declined his invitation: "Luosen big brother, I definitely can't go to Yangcheng now. Let Shen Anna attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the Old Hundreds Commercial Building instead!"

Upon hearing that, Luosen thought Chen Yang was still hesitating over the Chu family matter, and he solemnly promised: "Don't worry. I can guarantee your safety in Yangcheng with my life."

Chen Yang waved his hand and explained: "The game project I'm cooperating with Three Stone Technology will also officially launch its promotion around that time. There will be a series of joint activities targeting the Old Hundreds E-commerce Platform and Public Pass payment company. This activity is very important for the future development of the three companies, and I really don't have time to go to Yangcheng."

"Moreover, I will reduce my public appearances in the future, and Shen Anna will be the overall person in charge of me and my subsidiary companies externally. Having her attend the groundbreaking ceremony would actually be more effective."

Luosen, hearing that, didn't insist further. After all, the project in Yangcheng has always been handled by Shen Anna and Ouyang Sheng liaising with him; Chen Yang as the boss has hardly ever inquired about it. If it weren't for Chu Ning's matter today, they probably wouldn't even be on speaking terms.

"Chen Yang, since you have other plans, I'll go visit Shen Anna first."

Chen Yang immediately called Shen Anna to inform her, confirmed she had time, and then had Bai Ruonan send Luosen over.

After they left, Chen Yang also felt sleepy, so he simply curled up in Chu Min's car and caught a nap.

That nap saw him sleep straight through to noon. When he woke up, he found the villa's gate already open, with the two big bodyguards Bai Ruonan and Liu Qing standing like door gods on either side of the gate.

He stretched, then leisurely walked into the villa. What surprised him was that Chu Min and Chu Ning were actually chatting and laughing while busy in the kitchen.

This scene left him bewildered. So he quietly walked back to the villa gate and softly asked Bai Duizhang: "Bai captain, what's going on inside?"

Seeing Chen Yang turn around again, Bai Ruonan said expressionlessly: "Director Chen, after the two ladies came out of the bedroom, that's their current state; I don't know the specific reason either. You should go ask them yourself!"

Chen Yang glanced at Chu Ning, who was helping Chu Min, hesitated a moment, then forcibly suppressed his curiosity. As long as Chu Ning doesn't attempt suicide again, what they actually talked about isn't really important.

However, Chu Min inside obviously saw Chen Yang and waved at him vigorously: "Hurry over and help, husband! Do you want to work this pregnant woman to death?"

Chen Yang let out a helpless sigh. The cook of the East Jiang Business Alliance had been fired after Yexin left Xingcheng, and they hadn't lit the stove here for a while. If they wanted to cook, they could totally go to his villa. I have no idea why these two women suddenly got the urge to cook here.

He slowly walked into the kitchen, then took the knife from Chu Min's hand and began chopping vegetables. As for Chu Ning, he decided to selectively ignore her.

At this moment, Chu Min suddenly whispered to Chen Yang: "Husband, I've talked it over with Chu Ning. During my pregnancy, I'll have her take care of your life."

Upon hearing that, Chen Yang immediately put down the kitchen knife in his hand, looked at Chu Min with a shocked expression, and said: "Wife, are you crazy? Chu Ning is your cousin! How could you let me do something so morally degenerate?"

Chu Min said dismissively: "Husband, it's not as serious as you think. You and she originally had an intimate relationship; now it's just being extended a bit longer."

Chen Yang said to her very seriously: "The past is the past, the present is the present. Before, I was her lover, and whatever we did was understandable. Now I am your husband and her cousin-in-law. Neither law nor morality allows such a thing to happen again."

Chu Min glanced at the silent, head-down Chu Ning, sighed, and said: "Then I can't just watch Chu Ning go and kill herself, can I? If something really happened to her, could I live the rest of my life with peace of mind?"

Chen Yang rubbed his forehead, then turned to Chu Ning and earnestly advised: "Chu Ning, even if we can't be lovers, we can still be family! You don't need to ruin your reputation for my sake."

Moreover, there are many good men in the world; as long as you open your heart, you'll surely meet the one who will accompany you through the second half of your life.

Upon hearing that, Chu Ning raised her head and stared at Chen Yang silently for a while, then said in an icy tone: "Even if I've hurt you emotionally, I only have you as a man in this lifetime."

"Also, don't lecture me about morality and ethics. When you were with me, didn't you also have relations with your ex-wife?"

Chen Yang froze for a moment.

Chu Ning immediately said to Chu Min: "See? He's feeling guilty."

Chen Yang was quite speechless.

Seeing this, Chu Min let out a light sigh. She gently said to Chen Yang: "Husband, as long as you don't go fool around in those unsavory places, I can turn a blind eye to those lingering feelings from before."

"No, I'd rather draw a clear line with the past and not do anything over the line."

"Then let's get a divorce!"
