Chapter Seventy-Five: Infidelity
Lin Xuedong was so excited by the constant good news from Beijing that he couldn't help but hug Lisa in his office and kiss him, saying while kissing, "You are really my lucky star." ”
"Wait." Lisa still cautiously pulled down the blinds in Lin Xuedong's office.
"However, it wasn't me who brought this, it was Miss Ding."
"Haha. I don't know what happened to those two little guys. ”
Lin Xuedong and Lisa were entangled, but Mrs. Lin's wife Su Xiaoyuan called, she rarely bothered Lin Xuedong at work, this is the tacit understanding formed by husband and wife for many years.
Lin Xuedong made a gesture to ask Lisa not to speak. Then I pressed the green answer button on the phone screen.
"Hey. Can I help you? ”
"Are you going home for dinner tonight?"
"Didn't I say that I still have to go to a meeting with a client?"
"Are you in the office now, then? I'm coming to you. ”
"No. I'm on the client's side. Lin Xuedong's answer gradually lost patience.
"Then I'll come in."
As soon as Lin Xuedong was wondering what Su Xiaoyuan meant by this, the door of the office was pushed open.
His wife, Su Xiaoyuan, stood at the door with the phone.
He sat in an office chair with Zhao Lilin sitting on his lap.
The air between the three of them instantly froze.
It wasn't until Mrs. Lin's Su Xiaoyuan's mobile phone slipped from her hand onto the carpet in the office that the deathly silence was broken.
"Su Xiaoyuan, why did you come here?" Lin Xuedong removed Lisa from his lap. She still looked overwhelmed. I don't know where all my usual intelligence has gone?
Mrs. Lin didn't speak, nor did she bend down to pick up her phone. but closed the door for them,
"Mrs. Lin." Seeing Su Xiaoyuan's gloomy face, the front desk lady chased after her in a panic and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Don't follow me!" Su Xiaoyuan said with the anger gushing out of her heart. This morning she received a letter on the desk in the court's office, which contained a photo of Lin Xuedong and the young woman just now, who looked a hundred times uglier than what she had seen with her own eyes today.
Su Xiaoyuan is the youngest judge in the Zhucheng Court, and she has been working in the court since she graduated from university and passed the law and public examinations. has dealt with countless divorce cases, witnessed countless men and women tearing their faces in front of her, and she has no hope for marriage, she married him and had children under Lin Xuedong's fierce pursuit.
After more than 20 years of married life, she almost believed that the reasons for divorce that she saw in the court would not happen to her.
However, this morning, Su Xiaoyuan's trust in her nearly twenty-two years of marriage collapsed. The first thing she did when she returned home was to draft a divorce agreement for herself and Lin Xuedong.
Then, she sat on the sofa and waited, when Lin Xuedong came back and signed it with her own hands.
It wasn't until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night that Lin Xuedong's footsteps came from the door. Aunt Deng brought out the supper from the kitchen to cook, but Su Xiaoyuan retreated with her eyes. Since the young master went to college, Aunt Deng also vaguely noticed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in this home.
"Coming back from a meeting?" Su Xiaoyuan asked without any emotion.
"Hmm." Lin Xuedong didn't dare to look her in the eyes. He saw the document that Su Xiaoyuan had placed in front of him. Actually, Lin Xuedong didn't pay much attention to the relationship with Zhao Lilin. It's just that there are too many dull days, and I like this feeling of regaining vitality.
But if he likes it, he never thought of ending this ordinary ordinary life. Finally, there are two tracks that go hand in hand, without affecting each other.
Lisa understands his mind, she is a smart girl and will not ask for too much, so Lin Xuedong did not hesitate to help her in her career. But somehow, this matter was actually known to Su Xiaoyuan. Su Xiaoyuan has been in the court for a long time, and she likes to go online for everything.
Most of that document is their divorce agreement.
"I don't agree." Lin Xuedong sat down. "I'm going to break up with her. I promise that it will never happen again. ”
"It's not the first time, is it?" Su Xiaoyuan said coldly.
"What?"
"Look at the photos here, it's not just the little girl in the morning."
Lin Xuedong's heart shuddered, he thought that it was only this time, and he accidentally missed. Who the hell is it? The secrets that had buried him for nearly ten years were dug up at once.
"Damn."
"What else do you want to say?" Su Xiaoyuan didn't expect anything from him anymore. "Over the years, you've kept me alive like a fool. How long are you trying to lie to me? Let's get a divorce. I'm not one of those women who needs you to live. ”
Lin Xuedong picked up the documents on the table, everyone is mature middle-aged, since Su Xiaoyuan looks like he has an iron heart, there is no need for him to continue to persevere. If the distribution of benefits is reasonable, it is not that he cannot accept the divorce.
At his age, at his level, there are few men of his stature who do not steal, as the old saying goes. If he is divorced, no one will laugh at him.
And what makes him more concerned is his future and career.
He carefully read every word of the divorce agreement drafted by Su Xiaoyuan from beginning to end, and as a top lawyer, he understood that the purpose of this agreement was not to divorce, but to ruin him.
"Su Xiaoyuan, you're too much. The house at home can be given to you in the car, why do I also want to transfer Bohai's shares to you, don't you want the public office of the court? ”
"Lin Xuedong, I went to the court to take better care of this family. Now that this home is gone, can't I get back everything that belongs to me? Don't forget, we created Bohai together. ”
"Su Xiaoyuan, are you dreaming? Even your current position in the courthouse is a favor from your father! Bohai can have today, and it has nothing to do with you. ”
"Hmph. Don't be self-righteous, after your father retired, who helped you with your relationship in the court, don't you have anything in your heart? ”
The two argued endlessly in the living room, and their nearly thirty-year marriage had torn their faces and come to an end.
They all understand that the shares of those houses, cars and Bohai are like the relationship between fish and fishing rods, without which the fish will always be eaten one day.
Su Xiaoyuan also took it for sure that Lin Xuedong didn't dare to take this matter to court, firstly because of the evidence of his derailment in his hand, and secondly, Lin Xuedong was also a face-saving person, and went to court, if he lost, what face would he have to call himself the best lawyer in Zhucheng.
"Don't sleep today. Let's talk about this clearly. ”
Aunt Deng, who was hiding in the kitchen, vaguely heard some of the quarrels between Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin, but she didn't understand what they were arguing about. Over the years, the Lin family has always been a peaceful and stable wife, if they really divorced, would she still be a nanny in this family?
Aunt Deng's son has returned from abroad, although he has found a decent job and talked about a suitable girlfriend, but the marriage house requested by the other party has not yet been settled. Aunt Deng can't lose this job at this time.
In a hurry, she thought of calling Lin Zhiyi, who was far away in Beijing, she had been married for so many years, and she had never thought of divorce, but when she thought of her children, she could endure anything.
Lin Zhiyi was lying in the dormitory of the university at this time, and the internship and coursework in the office had made him a little tired recently. As soon as your head touches the pillow, you can fall asleep. However, in the middle of the night today, the mobile phone rang under his pillow like a timed **.
The roommate who was woken up first yelled, "Lin Zhiyi! Pick up your uncle's call! ”
