Chapter 2 Divorce?
A long time passed.
At this moment, Chen Xuan's phone rang again.
Chen Xuan answered the call.
A voice on the phone, filled with impatience, said, "Mr. Chen, your mother owes medical fees. Please come to the hospital immediately to settle them."
Chen Xuan then remembered that his mother's medical fees had not been paid. The hospital had already reminded him several times. He quickly agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xuan frowned.
Speaking of which, the illness his mother, Song Ping, had was also very strange.
Three months ago, Chen Xuan returned home after demobilization. Shortly before his return, Song Ping suddenly fell ill and was sent to the hospital by the Li family.
Despite numerous examinations at the hospital, no one knew what was wrong. Her condition had become precarious recently.
However, everything would pass, because the terrifying Xuan Yi Zhan Zun had returned!
The fire at the guesthouse had been extinguished, and people were busy clearing up. Chen Xuan found the captain to request leave.
"Chen Xuan, you did an excellent job fighting the fire this time. You rescued the most people. I'll apply for a second-class merit for you with the factory later." The security captain looked at Chen Xuan deeply, praising him endlessly.
Chen Xuan's physical fitness far surpassed that of the other security team members, and he was also a good person.
The captain thought highly of Chen Xuan, who had just transferred to the security team after his military service.
"Thank you for the compliment, Captain."
Chen Xuan said, "Captain, I'd like to request leave. My mother is still in the hospital."
The captain knew about Chen Xuan's family situation and readily agreed, "Granted! Go ahead, the firefighting equipment can be handled by others."
Chen Xuan nodded immediately and was about to change his clothes to rush to the hospital.
The captain suddenly remembered something and called out to Chen Xuan, "Oh, right, Chen Xuan. A beautiful young lady you rescued earlier is looking for you. She said she wants to thank you properly and asked for your information."
Chen Xuan waved his hand, "No need. This is my duty."
"This kid..." The captain chuckled and shook his head.
Not long after Chen Xuan left, a stylish lady in designer clothes, with a captivating beauty and a slender figure, found the security team captain...
...
Chen Xuan hailed a taxi and eagerly headed to Jiangzhou People's Hospital.
Upon arriving at the ward, Chen Xuan was surprised to find his fiancée, Li Jiajia, standing by the hospital bed.
Considering that Song Ping had been hospitalized for three months, his fiancée Li Jiajia had only visited the hospital a handful of times.
Li Jiajia looked up and saw Chen Xuan. She seemed to have something to say, and hesitantly called out, "Chen Xuan..."
Chen Xuan's expression was indifferent, as if he hadn't seen Li Jiajia.
He walked over and tucked the corner of the blanket more snugly around Song Ping's neck.
Seeing Chen Xuan's aloofness, Li Jiajia was somewhat displeased.
Hmph, if I didn't have something to discuss, I wouldn't bother coming.
At this moment, a nurse walked in. Even with a medical mask, her cold demeanor was palpable. "Family of Song Ping in bed 26, please remember to pay the medical fees. You already owe thirteen thousand yuan. Otherwise, the medication will be stopped this afternoon."
"I'll go pay now..."
Chen Xuan reached into his pocket and was embarrassed to find that there wasn't a single cent on him.
He hadn't forgotten to bring it; he simply didn't have any money on him.
This was because all his money and salary were entrusted to Li Jiajia for safekeeping.
He looked at Li Jiajia, "Give me money, I need to pay my mother's medical fees."
Upon hearing Chen Xuan ask for money, Li Jiajia seemed to transform into a different person and said coldly, "I don't have money."
Chen Xuan's expression turned slightly cold, "I gave you all my salary, how can you not have money?"
Li Jiajia showed a hint of disdain, "Your monthly salary is peanuts, only three thousand five hundred. It's not even enough for me to buy a Louis Vuitton bag."
"Then what about my mother's medical fees!" Chen Xuan exclaimed loudly.
Li Jiajia said with some disgust, "Why are you shouting so loud? Your mother has been lying in bed for three months. If she could be saved, she would have been saved by now. Keeping her in the hospital is just a waste of money!"
"What did you say? Your mother loved you so much back then! How can you say that about her?" Chen Xuan clenched his fists and glared at Li Jiajia.
Li Jiajia no longer bothered to hide her true feelings and said, "What's the use of her loving me? Ever since your father disappeared three years ago, your father's factory also went bankrupt, and we had to rely on my family's support. I think your mother just wants to curry favor with our family."
Chen Xuan looked at Li Jiajia with extreme disappointment.
Song Ping's affection for Li Jiajia was genuine, treating her as her own daughter. Yet, in Li Jiajia's words, it was twisted into an attempt to curry favor.
Chen Xuan couldn't help but argue, "Don't forget, when the Li family was in decline, you were still relying on my father's support. If my father were still here, would you dare to say these words?"
"Stop bringing up those old, trivial matters. I don't like listening to them. To be honest, I came here today to ask you for a divorce!" Li Jiajia said impatiently, stating her purpose directly.
Chen Xuan revealed a hint of self-mockery.
No wonder Li Jiajia came to the hospital; it was for a divorce.
Although he and Li Jiajia hadn't held a wedding ceremony, they had already registered their marriage.
Li Jiajia initially thought Chen Xuan would refuse, but to her surprise, Chen Xuan said decisively, "Okay!"
Li Jiajia was stunned for a moment, then her expression immediately brightened. She quickly took out a divorce agreement and said, "Sign it quickly, and we'll get the divorce done later. This is really bad luck. I knew we shouldn't have registered so early."
Chen Xuan was numb to Li Jiajia's callousness. "I can sign, but return my 600,000 yuan demobilization fee from the army when I retired. I need to pay my mother's hospitalization fees."
The demobilization fee was given to Li Jiajia as a betrothal gift. Now that the wedding hadn't even taken place, this money should be returned, especially since Song Ping's illness also required funds.
"No money."
"How can there be no money?"
Chen Xuan said coldly, "That's 600,000 yuan! Where is the money?"
Li Jiajia placed her delicate hands on her waist and pouted:
"Now that I'm married to you, my household registration will show me as remarried. It's fine for you, a nobody, who might never find a wife in this life. But I can't. I still need to get married. That money will be considered compensation for my damaged reputation."
"Tell me, where is the money? I'm asking you for the last time!" Chen Xuan's murderous gaze fixed on Li Jiajia.
A hint of fear flashed across Li Jiajia's face.
Does this guy dare to kill someone?
She secretly shook her head, a trace of disdain flashing through her mind, "Okay, I'll tell you. My younger brother is getting married. Part of that money was used to buy him a car, and the other part was used as a down payment for a house."
Chen Xuan was furious and roared, "That was my demobilization pay after eight years of serving on the border and fighting in battles!"
Li Jiajia said somewhat impatiently, "What does that have to do with me? Hurry up and sign the divorce agreement. Don't waste my time here. I'm in a hurry to get married."
At this moment, Xu Shijie, who had been waiting impatiently outside, walked in, a cigarette dangling from his lips. "Chen Xuan, as a good brother, I should advise you to part on good terms. You're so useless, don't block others from getting rich."
"Husband!" Li Jiajia, upon seeing Xu Shijie walk in, pounced into his arms like a dependent bird.
When had Li Jiajia ever been so affectionate towards him?
Chen Xuan gritted his teeth, "You are going too far!"
Xu Shijie scoffed, "So what if I'm bullying you? You're just a small security guard. Believe it or not, I can get you fired immediately!"
"I am bullying you! Let me tell you, if it weren't for Grandpa's intervention, I would have broken up with you long ago."
Li Jiajia let out a soft哼, and hugged Xu Shijie's waist. "Now that Shijie has become the manager of Yishen Pharmaceutical and has been invited by the divine doctor Li to attend a medical gathering, he will be a big shot in the future. Grandpa will definitely agree to our divorce!"
Just then, a clear and bright voice rang out.
"Husband, I truly missed you so much!"
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice.
They saw a woman dressed in designer clothes, with a sexy figure and stunning beauty, standing outside with a radiant smile.
Her skin was as white as jade, revealing a hint of alluring collarbone.
The moment she appeared, she made the already beautiful Li Jiajia instantly pale in comparison.
Xu Shijie glanced at her, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Where did such an exquisite woman, comparable to a big star, come from!
Li Jiajia noticed Xu Shijie's gaze and couldn't help but feel jealous, muttering sourly, "Where did this shameless woman come from, dressed so ostentatiously... truly shameless!"
At this moment, to everyone's astonishment, this sexy woman lunged into Chen Xuan's arms, the very man they had been humiliating mercilessly!
