Chapter 450: I want a divorce!
When he reached this point, Xiao Changkun suddenly became emotional.
He stared intently into Han Meiqing's eyes and said passionately, "Meiqing, I am really not joking with you. Every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. In the twenty-plus years since you left, I haven't been happy for a single moment. We are already at this age, why can't we cast aside those misgivings and pursue true love vigorously once?"
Han Meiqing sighed faintly, "Changkun, I have thought about everything you said, and to be honest, I have fantasies in my heart too. It's just that the current situation is indeed not like before. The thing I hate most in this life is a third party, so I don't want to become a third party myself. So, let's not be so hasty about this matter. Give me some time, and I will give you some time."
Xiao Changkun hurriedly asked, "Are you willing to be with me after I divorce Ma Lan?"
Han Meiqing looked at Xiao Changkun with her beautiful large eyes, which carried a few fine wrinkles, without blinking, and said earnestly, "Changkun, I admit that a major motivation for me returning to the country was the hope of seeing you again and the hope of continuing our past relationship."
Having said this, she changed the subject and added, "However, we are no longer young people of 18 or even 20. We must think things through carefully now. I cannot answer your question about whether I am willing to be with you right now. After you are truly single, and after we have tried getting along for a period of time, I will answer this question for you solemnly."
Xiao Changkun blurted out without hesitation, "I am willing, I am ten thousand times willing, a million times willing."
Han Meiqing said earnestly, "Changkun, I also hope you will consider Ma Lan and your marriage seriously and solemnly. Consider whether there is still love between the two of you. If you still have love, then I will bless you as I did before; if you have no love, then you must make it clear to her as soon as possible. I know your character quite well; if you don't cut when you should, you will inevitably suffer from the chaos."
The current Han Meiqing was already a thorough winner in life, but the only thing she hadn't won in her life was true love.
Therefore, she had an obsession regarding Xiao Changkun.
Everyone should have an object of obsession in their heart. If this object of obsession is with them, then their life is happy and fulfilling; but if this object of obsession is not with them, they will surely regret it for the rest of their life.
So, Han Meiqing's return to the country this time could be said to be for nothing else but to regain the unforgettable love during this sunset period of her life.
Xiao Changkun couldn't wait to express his stance, "Meiqing, as long as you don't despise me and are willing to be with me, I will definitely divorce Ma Lan!"
Han Meiqing sighed softly and said, "Regardless of whether you and she were intentional or unintentional back then, or if you were used by others, in the final analysis, it was you who betrayed our feelings. If you truly have the heart to make amends, then of course I am willing to give you a chance."
Recalling the past, Xiao Changkun suddenly stood up and once again pulled Han Meiqing into his arms, facing him.
While holding her tightly, he said, "Meiqing, I have regretted what happened back then for over 20 years. This time, no matter what, I will not let myself regret it again. You must wait for me!"
Han Meiqing nodded and said softly, "Okay! I will wait for you! But you cannot hold me like this anymore; what we are doing now is wrong!"
Xiao Changkun said stubbornly, "Forget about right or wrong, I just want to hold you right now!"
Han Meiqing struggled internally. She wanted to say she liked the feeling of being held in his arms, but she had lived her whole life with dignity and could not accept being so intimate with a married man.
So she said somewhat flusteredly, "Oh my, let me go first. This is not good, and I still have to cook..."
Xiao Changkun said, "I have you in my heart, and you have me in your heart, what is not good about that!"
After finishing, Xiao Changkun actually gathered his courage, lowered his head, and went to kiss Han Meiqing.
Han Meiqing hurriedly dodged him and said very seriously, "Have I been talking to you for nothing all this time?"
Just as she was speaking, a burnt smell began to spread in the kitchen.
Han Meiqing exclaimed, "Oh my, my Longjing shrimp!"
Having said that, she hurriedly pushed Xiao Changkun away, ran to the stove with a red face, and looked into the pot, crying out in sorrow, "It's over, it's over, the shrimp is all burnt!"
Xiao Changkun hurriedly reminded her from the side, "Turn off the heat quickly, or it will turn black in a moment."
Only then did Han Meiqing hurriedly turn off the gas stove. Looking at the shrimp that had already scorched in the pot, she said helplessly, "It's all your fault. This was originally my best dish, and now it's all ruined..."
Xiao Changkun was also full of embarrassment and guilt, saying, "How about I go out and buy another bag of shrimp for you?"
At this time, Ye Chen and Paul, who were drinking tea outside, both smelled the burnt odor spreading from the kitchen. Ye Chen said subconsciously, "Is something burning in the pot?"
Paul frowned and said, "My mom is very professional at cooking; something like burning a pot shouldn't happen to her..."
Ye Chen stood up and said, "Paul, you sit for a while, I'll go in and take a look, just in case something happened."
Paul hurriedly said, "I'll go too."
Just as he was about to stand up, Ye Chen reached out and pressed him back down, laughing, "You just sit and drink tea, I'll go take a look."
At this moment, Ye Chen was thinking that if your mom and my father-in-law were currently in the kitchen like dry wood and raging fire, and both were disheveled and forgot about the things in the pot, wouldn't it be awkward if you rushed in like that?
I am different; I have no blood relationship with your mom or my father-in-law, so I'm just going in to watch the show.
Paul didn't know that Ye Chen's heart was full of thoughts about watching a good show. Seeing that Ye Chen had already stepped toward the kitchen, he didn't insist further.
Ye Chen arrived at the kitchen and opened the kitchen door, poking his head in.
Seeing the two in the kitchen were hurriedly cleaning up the burnt pot, and they looked quite neat, with nothing out of the ordinary, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
He had originally wanted to come over to eat a melon, but in the end, he didn't even get to eat a watermelon rind.
However, looking at the faces of his father-in-law and his first love, they seemed to be a bit flushed, as if they had just had some relatively intimate contact.
So Ye Chen deliberately asked with feigned surprise, "Dad, Auntie Han, I don't know what burned, are you two okay?"
Xiao Changkun hurriedly said in a flustered manner, "Um, nothing, nothing, just accidentally burned the pot. Your Auntie Han and I are dealing with it, you don't need to worry."
Ye Chen thought to himself, two people watching one pot and still burning it, you two definitely didn't do anything good just now.
Xiao Changkun said guiltily at this time, "That, Ye Chen, you should go out and accompany Paul to drink tea. It's enough to have me and your Auntie Han here..."
