Chapter 450: I Want a Divorce!

~7 min read 1,364 words

When he reached this point, Xiao Changkun suddenly became emotionally agitated.

He stared fixedly 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 concerns and pursue true love vigorously just once?"

Han Meiqing sighed faintly, "Changkun, I have thought about everything you said, and to be honest, I have fantasies in my heart as well. It's just that the situation now is truly 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. Therefore, let's not be so hasty about this matter. Give me some time, and I will give you some time too."

Xiao Changkun hurriedly pressed, "Are you willing to be with me after I divorce Ma Lan?"

Han Meiqing looked at Xiao Changkun with her beautiful, slightly wrinkled large eyes, unblinking, and said earnestly, "Changkun, I admit that a major motivation for my return 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 eighteen or even twenty-year-old youngsters. We must think things through carefully now. As for the question of whether I am willing to be with you, I cannot answer you right now. After you are truly single and the two of us 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 a million 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 there is still love, then I will bless you as I did before; if there is no love, then you must make it clear to her as soon as possible. I still know your character very well; if you are indecisive when you should be decisive, you will inevitably suffer from the chaos."

Han Meiqing was now a thorough winner in life, but the only thing she hadn't won in this life was true love.

Therefore, she had an obsession regarding Xiao Changkun.

Everyone should have an object of obsession in their heart. If that object of obsession is with them, then their life is happy and fulfilling; but if that object of obsession is not with them, they will surely regret it for the rest of their life.

Therefore, it could be said that Han Meiqing's return to the country this time was 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 at this moment, "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 were intentional or unintentional back then, or if you were used by others, the bottom line is that you betrayed our relationship. 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 twenty years. This time, no matter what, I will not let myself regret it again. You must wait for me!"

Han Meiqing nodded and whispered, "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 life with dignity and could not accept being so intimate with a married man.

So she said in a panic, "Oh my, let me go first. This isn't good, and I still have to cook..."

Xiao Changkun said, "I have you in my heart, and you have me in yours; what's not good about that!"

After finishing, Xiao Changkun actually mustered his courage, lowered his head, and went to kiss Han Meiqing.

Han Meiqing hurriedly dodged him and said very seriously, "Did I talk 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!"

After saying that, she hurriedly pushed Xiao Changkun away, ran to the stove with a flushed face, looked into the pot, and let out a sorrowful cry, "It's over, it's over, the shrimp is all burnt in the pot!"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly reminded her from the side, "Turn off the fire quickly, or it will be burnt black in a moment."

Only then did Han Meiqing hurriedly turn off the gas stove. Looking at the shrimp that had already burnt in the pot, she said helplessly, "It's all your fault. This was originally the dish I was best at, 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 burnt in the pot?"

Paul frowned and said, "My mother 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; I hope nothing went wrong."

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 can go take a look."

At this moment, Ye Chen was thinking that if your mother and my father-in-law were currently in the kitchen like dry wood and raging fire, and they 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 mother or my father-in-law. I'm just going in to watch the show.

Paul didn't know that Ye Chen's heart was currently full of thoughts about watching a good show. Seeing that Ye Chen had already started walking toward the kitchen, he didn't insist further.

Ye Chen arrived at the kitchen, opened the kitchen door, and poked his head in.

Seeing the two people in the kitchen busily trying to clean up the burnt pot, and looking quite neatly dressed with nothing amiss, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

He had originally wanted to come over to eat a melon, but it turned out he couldn't even get a watermelon rind to eat.

However, looking at the complexions of his father-in-law and his first love, they seemed a bit flushed, as if they might have had some relatively intimate contact just now.

So Ye Chen deliberately asked with feigned surprise, "Dad, Auntie Han, I don't know what burnt; are you two okay?"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly said in a panic, "Um, nothing, nothing. It's just that I wasn't careful, and the pot burnt. Your Auntie Han and I are dealing with it; you don't need to worry."

Ye Chen thought to himself, if two people watching a pot can still burn it, you two definitely didn't do anything good just now.

Xiao Changkun said with a guilty conscience at this time, "That, Ye Chen, you should go out and accompany Paul for tea. Auntie Han and I are enough here..." ===== CHAPTER 451 =====
