Chapter 189: 189: Like a Beast Ready to Pounce_1

He even threatened him that if he dared to go against his orders and divorce Jian Yufei, he would be kicked out of the Ruan family, completely disowned as his grandson.

He was not afraid of having nothing, but he could not leave the Ruan family.

How could he, a member of the Ruan family, be kicked out?

So, he compromised, thinking that sooner or later, his grandfather would relent.

But now, his grandfather had suddenly given his consent for the divorce, the news came too unexpectedly, leaving him somewhat unprepared.

Deep down, he had always looked forward to the divorce, especially when his grandfather opposed it, it stirred up his rebellious desire for divorce even more.

Yet, why did he feel not a shred of happiness now that they could divorce?

Perhaps he’d long suspected they would divorce, so he felt no surprise.

Setting down his chopsticks, Ruan Tianling’s thin lips curved slightly, “Really? Well, that’s great.”

“Yes, I’ve been waiting for this day for quite a while,” replied Jian Yufei with a smile, a smile that was particularly annoying to him, he simply could not stand this woman.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Once they were divorced, he wouldn’t have to see her anymore, out of sight, out of mind.

“I asked Grandfather to approve our divorce, when will you fulfill your promise?” Jian Yufei asked him.

Ruan Tianling knew what she was talking about. He replied, “Let’s finish dinner first, then I’ll take you somewhere.”

Jian Yufei’s heart skipped a beat.

Had he found the man who had drugged her?

She tightly held her chopsticks, eyes filled with cold resentment. She lost her appetite; she just wanted to know who the man was as soon as possible!

“I’m full.” She set her chopsticks down, having barely made a dent in her bowl of rice.

“Finish eating!” Ruan Tianling said sternly. He was firm in his stance; if she didn’t finish, he wouldn’t take her anywhere.

Jian Yufei didn’t argue. She picked up her chopsticks again and started to shovel the rice into her mouth, eager to finish as quickly as possible.

Suddenly, Ruan Tianling scooped some vegetables into her bowl.

With his gaze set on her, he said, “Finish all of it.”

Jian Yufei shot him a glance, then resumed her hurried eating, almost choking on her food in the process.

The man sighed and poured her a bowl of soup. “Take your time, there’s no rush.”

After drinking her soup, she patted her chest and used a napkin to wipe her mouth.

“I’m done eating. Can we go now?”

“Let’s go.” The man didn’t make things difficult for her any longer and promptly rose from his seat.

Throughout the journey, Jian Yufei remained silent.

She gripped her seatbelt tightly, her slight body tense, like a small beast ready to pounce.

Clearly, she wasn’t strong enough, yet she couldn’t control the anger welling up inside her and wanted to pounce on her enemy viciously. Even if she couldn’t kill the man, she wanted to tear off a piece of his flesh!

Ruan Tianling glanced at her but didn’t mock her. Instead, his gaze darkened considerably.

His car was heading in the direction of her workplace.

Jian Yufei bit her lip, resentment in her eyes growing stronger.

Could it really be her boss?

The car stopped near her workplace, and through the window, Jian Yufei observed what was taking place nearby.

“Hurry up and move, stop dawdling!” At the entrance of the company, a group of business law enforcers were about to seal the company’s doors.

Her boss and his relatives stood outside, red in the face and evidently unwilling to leave but dared not use force against the law enforcers. They watched helplessly as the doors were locked and the seal was put up.
