Chapter 177: The Fuse

After Du Zeming left independently without looking back, Lin Qingrou was in a daze in the office for a long time. She felt that people were really contradictory individuals, and she was so eager to get a free body, but when the opportunity was at her fingertips, she was so hesitant and looked ahead.

But at least now she is the one who has the initiative, and the divorce agreement that Du Zeming has signed in her hand is enough for her to have rights that she has never had so far. Now, whether to end this marriage, which is not very happy for both parties, and when to choose to end it, will be decided by Lin Qingrou's choice.

Lin Qingrou felt that holding such rights in her hands was not so pleasant for her, but felt a burden.

Lin Qingrou's hand, Zhou Yi's phone had already rang the third ringtone, she realized that she had to go out with Zhou Yi and them to investigate today, and Zhou Yi should have been waiting for her downstairs at this time, so she carefully put the divorce agreement into the work drawer, planning to wait until the inspection came back to deal with it.

This time we visited an island dozens of kilometers away from Xiushan, which has a very natural and pristine appearance, and the company intends to develop it into a high-quality tourist attraction after careful consideration.

And Du Zeming at this time is also full of confusion about the future. He was unwilling to let Lin Qingrou go like this, in the end, deep down in his heart, he always kept a warm harbor for Lin Qingrou, but Du Zeming didn't want to admit it nakedly, and Lin Qingrou never had the opportunity to know. The reason why Du Zeming chose to let go today and arranged all this for his divorce from Lin Qingrou was not out of his original intention.

Just before coming to Xiushan to meet Lin Qingrou, there was an open and honest conversation between Du Zeming and Du Liangde.

It was in this conversation that Du Zeming learned a bloody truth, which was enough to destroy his previous high spirits and top ambitions, and made him fall into an ice cave like an abyss in an instant.

That night just a week ago, Du Liangde uncharacteristically went to the hospital with Du Zeming. In the hospital room, there is a strange atmosphere between father and son.

Du Zeming didn't know what Du Liangde's intentions were, and Du Liangde would never look for him at night before that. Looking at Du Liangde's expression, Du Zeming was almost certain that there must be something important to talk about tonight.

Du Liangde's spirit looks pretty good, although he looks like he has already lost his prestige, but the aura of experience that he has gained from overcoming obstacles still supports this dying old man, and his eyes are still resolute and decisive.

"I know that the woman who is by your side now is called Liu Anfei, what's the matter, are you finally going to make your own choice?" Du Liangde asked in a flat tone.

Du Zeming was surprised that Du Liangde would care about his private life, so he replied: "No matter who I am dealing with, this will not change the status quo, and I don't want to make any choices." ”

"I don't like it when you send someone to investigate me!" Du Zeming accentuated his tone to show his dissatisfaction.

Du Liangde ignored Du Zeming's dissatisfaction, but continued to ask: "You divorce Lin Qingrou, the sooner the better." ”

Du Liangde's words were so light, but Du Zeming's eyes widened, and he was suddenly excited. He didn't know why Du Liangde suddenly interfered with his marital status, and from now on, it seems that Du Liangde had another purpose in this conversation.

Du Zeming didn't think about divorcing Lin Qingrou, this is something he has never let go. Previously, whether it was Lin Qingrou's request or Li Shujun's urging, Du Zeming never agreed to end his marriage with Lin Qingrou, which was an unchangeable condition in his heart, even if he and Lin Qingrou were already strangers now, but this could not change his decision not to let Lin Qingrou leave.

"I'm not going to get a divorce, I've made it clear many times." Du Zeming's tone was very serious, and he wanted to inform Du Liangde that there was no room for negotiation in this matter.

Du Liangde turned around, his eyes still looking at the moonlight outside the window. This is a habit he has developed since he was admitted to this ward, and he likes to quietly watch everything outside the window, whether it is the weather, whether it is the weather, the withered leaves, or the bright moon and stars in the sky, these scenes will make his mind feel peaceful.

But at the moment, Du Zeming's resolute attitude will not bring him any peace, which is also expected by him.

After a while, Du Liangde slowly spoke: "I had a certain responsibility for the death of Lin Qingrou's father, Lin Bojie, and I wanted to make a little compensation to Lin Qingrou before I died. ”

Du Zeming frowned, it was the first time he knew that Du Liangde was related to Lin Qingrou's father's death, but at the moment, he couldn't understand it at all, was letting him divorce Lin Qingrou be the so-called compensation?

Du Zeming asked rhetorically: "What do you have to do with Lin Bojie's death?" ”

Du Liangde said: "At that time, I couldn't tolerate sand in my eyes, and I would not allow anyone to get involved in the real estate industry under my nose, so as to compete with Hongming Group." Lin Bojie did such a thing, and I can't tolerate him anymore to continue to grow. ”

Du Zeming sighed and said: "This is really your way of doing things, you have always adhered to this kind of business, and you have taught me with this, why, do you feel guilty now that you are old?" ”

Du Liangde reached out and smoked a cigarette from the cigarette case on the bedside table, and silently lit it. Seeing this, Du Zeming did not step forward to stop him, although the doctor had repeatedly warned Du Liangde's body that he should not smoke again.

Du Liangde took a few puffs of his cigarette and continued: "I don't regret what I did before, but I should always clean up this mess before I leave." I have already decided on this matter, I think with the current situation between you and Lin Qingrou, you have no reason to continue this marriage at all. ”

Du Zeming didn't like Du Liangde's way of speaking, "I don't need you to interfere in my marriage!" ”

This was Du Zeming's last warning, if Du Liangde continued to interfere strongly in his and Lin Qingrou's affairs without respect, then he would have to leave here immediately. Since he was a child, Du Zeming has lived and studied under Du Liangde's control, and when he grew up, he also obediently worked according to Du Liangde's will.

But Du Zeming was very disgusted with Du Liangde's dictatorship and strength, especially when he interfered in his private life.

Du Liangde understood that this was Du Zeming's last warning, and Du Zeming would not follow his arrangement so easily about this matter.

Du Liangde pondered for a long time and said: "I want to remind you that you have been following my arrangements and ideas since you were a child, and everything I have taught you has never made you suffer, and everything I ask you to do is for your sake. ”

Du Zeming said: "That's right, you're not wrong to say that. But you can't arrange everything for me forever, I'm not your puppet, now I only do what I want, no matter how you want to interfere, it's useless. ”

"I can take back your position as CEO of Wang Ming Group." Du Liangde finally spread out one of his trump cards.

Du Zeming couldn't believe that Du Liangde would use this as a threat, but in order to force himself to divorce Lin Qingrou. But Du Zeming also understands that Du Liangde does have this right, which is the fundamental reason why he always feels controlled by others.

Du Zeming said very dissatisfied: "Just to let me divorce Lin Qingrou, do you want to let the company's top leader leave his position?" Are you awake now? ”

Du Liangde did not answer, and Du Zeming began to realize that there must be some fuse behind this, which would cause Du Liangde to make such a decision, without considering which of these two things is more important and what are the pros and cons.

After a long time, Du Liangde finished smoking the third cigarette before he spoke: "I arranged for you to sit in the position of CEO of Hongming Group, as long as I feel that you are no longer suitable for this position, I will naturally take necessary actions." ”

Du Zeming didn't say anything more, because he didn't have the confidence to fight when he faced Du Liangde.

"Is it just because of Lin Qingrou, or do you want Du Hongming to come back and inherit the Hongming Group again." After thinking carefully, Du Zeming questioned Du Liangde and said.

Du Liangde's answer was clear and crisp, "That's right, I have such a plan. ”

"What! Isn't my effort over the years as good as this person who has turned his back on the Du family? ”

Du Zeming roared almost frantically, he never thought that Du Liangde would be ready to do this, the Du Hongming who he was very hostile to, the Du Hongming who left the Du family selfish and reckless, why could he come back and threaten his position after disappearing for so many years.

Du Liangde still said in a flat tone: "You should ask your mother what caused me to have such thoughts. ”

"What? What the hell are you hiding from each other? Is there a secret I don't know? Du Zeming couldn't believe it, but he still asked the question he was doubting in his heart.

"That's right, she has always kept a secret in her heart that hasn't been revealed in all these years. However, now that I know the truth, I am going to start taking action to correct the big ship of the Du family, which has long since deviated from its course. ”

"In short, you have to divorce Lin Qingrou according to my meaning. Otherwise, you will lose your position as CEO of the Wang Ming Group, which is not a consultation with you, but an order to you, and I have little time left, and I have no patience. ”
