8 Chapter 8 He won't divorce_1

"Jian Yufei, you're my wife, it's legal for me to make love to you!"

"But if I don't want to, you're just forcing me." Jian Yufei stubbornly retorted.

If she is repulsed to this extent, even daring to use the word 'force', how could Ruan Tianling want to continue touching her?

His eyes were icy cold. He disdainfully stood up, changed his clothing, and left without looking back.

The door was once again slammed shut by him as a vent, a sound that echoed sharply in the quiet night.

When the sound of the car starting downstairs reached her, Jian Yufei heaved a sigh of relief; she had narrowly escaped tonight.

However, it has become apparent to her that asking him for a divorce is not going to be easy.

No hurry. She has plenty of methods at her disposal. No matter how long it takes, she is determined to sever ties with him!

Ruan Tianling did not return until two days later.

When he came home, it was noon and Jian Yufei was eating.

Aunt Lee spotted him, and laughing, walked up to inquire, "Young master, have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet."

"I'll get you a set of chopsticks and a bowl."

Ruan Tianling sat down across from Jian Yufei, leaning back in his chair, lazily watching her with a deep gaze.

Under his scrutiny, Jian Yufei couldn't eat anymore.

She reluctantly stood up and said, "I'm full. Enjoy your meal."

"Sit down," Ruan Tianling suddenly interrupted. As she looked towards him, she repeated, "I told you, I'm full."

"I asked you to sit down." The man's sharp gaze was intimidating. She didn't want to provoke him and bring trouble upon herself, so she reluctantly sat back.

Aunt Lee had brought the bowl and chopsticks. Ruan Tianling took a few bites of food then told Jian Yufei, "Serve me rice."

It's not like he doesn't have hands!

Jian Yufei silently cursed in her mind. However, her face remained still as she picked up his bowl and scooped a bowl of rice for him.

She thought he would continue giving her a hard time, but he didn't. He just leisurely ate the rice in his bowl and didn't let her leave.

Jian Yufei was idly sitting across from him, gazing at her fingers. Ruan Tianling was eating while watching her. Both remained silent, making the atmosphere quite weird.

Eventually, he finished eating. He set down his chopsticks and said to her, "Your mother called today, asking for two hundred thousand."

Jian Yufei flinched, her hands clenched tightly.

Ruan Tianling continued, "Jian Yufei, from the time you married me till now, have you ever calculated how much money your mother has asked from me?"

His words, were more shaming than a slap in her face.

"You want a divorce, I bet your mother would be the first to object, won't she?"

Jian Yufei's face burned, she felt extremely embarrassed.

Indeed, she wants a divorce, and her mother will not agree to it.

The Ruan family is wealthy and influential; they will not let her divorce Ruan Tianling, otherwise they would lose their golden goose.

With a curl of his lips, Ruan Tianling stood up and headed upstairs.

His point was made - Jian Yufei wouldn't dare to talk about divorce anymore.

Because their marriage was not an equal partnership, she couldn't possibly pay back everything she owed him. The only way out would be if he himself suggests the divorce.

Jian Yufei opened her eyes wide, striving not to let the tears in her eyes fall.

Was she really going to stay by his side forever?

Their arranged marriage was the work of Ruan Tianling's grandfather. His grandfather had made his stance clear; he will not tolerate Ruan Tianling leaving her in this lifetime.

He had sworn in front of his grandfather, he will not initiate a divorce.

He won't divorce, and she can't ask for a divorce. Thus, they will never be apart.
