Chapter 95: Divorce

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the past month, Li Ran and Gao Shan had completed the divorce procedures. The two of them officially divorced.

On the day she came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Li Ran felt unprecedentedly relaxed. All these years, she knew that she should let go, but she was unwilling to. When the exhaustion finally dissipated, the relief made seem more Li Ran mature.

On the way back, she lowered the window of the backseat of the red Lincoln and asked the man she had loved for years with a smile, “Do you want a ride?”

Gao Shan also felt relaxed. After being suppressed by Li Ran for so many years, he could finally communicate with her calmly. This was also the outcome that Gao Shan had fantasized about countless times. The truth was that Gao Shan had never loved Li Ran with all his heart.

He nodded and sat in the front pa.s.senger seat. “Please send me to the office, Uncle…” After he thought about it, he changed his address. “Li Ci has something to discuss with me.”

When the car was about to reach the office building, Li Ran suddenly asked him, “What do you plan to do with the child in Chu Mei’s stomach?”

Gao Shan’s tone was softened as he said, “That’s my first child, so of course I’ll keep him.”

“Then… what about Chu Mei?” Although she knew the answer would bother her, Li Ran still asked.

“She can raise the baby on her own. I won’t marry an actress.”

Gao Shan was as heartless as ever. Li Ran sneered. After so many years, she finally saw this man’s true colors. She had been blinded by her fantasies.

Li Ran didn’t say another word. After she left Gao Shan at the entrance of the company, the car drove off.

Gao Shan and Li Ci’s conversation wasn’t pleasant either.

Li Ci was waiting in Gao Shan’s office. When he saw Gao Shan return, he went straight to the point. “The Li family has always cut ties in a clean manner. Since you’ve already divorced Ran, we don’t need to have any more ties.”

At this moment, Gao Shan still had an indifferent att.i.tude. Now that his company was rich and he had connections, what difference did it make if he still relied on the Li family or not?

Gao Shan actually became arrogant in front of Li Ci. “What do you plan to do? Just say it.”

Li Ci sneered. “Do you think you can talk to me so arrogantly just because you have everything now?”

As Gao Shan looked at Li Ci, who was sitting in his seat, he felt disdain. “In the end, this company is mine. I’m its legal owner! What about you? With your status, can you show your face openly in the business world?”

Li Ci finally heard Gao Shan’s true thoughts. Since he had endured listening to his commands for so many years, his patience wasn’t something an ordinary person had. Li Ci couldn’t help but clap.

“I’ve indeed underestimated how thick-skinned you are.”

Li Ci threw a folder at Gao Shan. “Why don’t you open it and take a look at the contents before deciding what kind of att.i.tude you should use to talk to me?!”

Gao Shan opened the folder skeptically. When he saw the contents, he suddenly turned pale. “…Uncle.”

He changed his address and tried to kiss up to him.

Inside the folder, there were the termination contracts of all the manufacturers and companies he had worked with. Li Ci had interfered, so both parties had terminated the contract peacefully. Gao Shan wouldn’t get any compensation for the breach of contract!

As the saying went, everyone kicks a man who is down. These people had cooperated with Gao Shan because the Li family was backing him. They hoped to do Li Ci some favors and earn some brownie points for themselves, so things could be more smooth sailing in the future.

Without Gao Shan, the Li family would still have Zhang Shan and w.a.n.g Shan in the future. However, if Gao Shan lost the Li family’s support, he would be nothing.

Everyone knew this very well. It was just that Gao Shan had always thought too highly of himself.

Gao Shan panicked and knelt in front of Li Ci. “Uncle, can you let me off? If these people terminate their contracts with the company, I’ll go bankrupt!”

Li Ci didn’t even look at him. Instead, he admired the expensive jade ring he had just bought. When he put it on his thumb, it refracted an emerald l.u.s.ter under the sunlight.

“From the day you started lying to Ran, you should have expected this outcome. Originally, you could have been honest and things would have been fine, but you were too anxious and even made Chu Mei implicate Shi Xiao.. You’re simply too stupid!”
