Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief - Chapter 837

Chapter 837 Second Relationship

“There is no time for this. Lawyer Wang, you’d better hurry to think of a way. Apart from persuading my wife, is there really no other way?” Qiu Qin was anxious. He knew that he would not be able to persuade his wife. Even if he pleaded with her, she would not change her mind.

If what happened at the ancient tomb could not be kept a secret, Qi Minlan would definitely want to get a divorce and sever ties with him. She would not change her mind.

Lawyer Wang was put in a difficult spot. “You are her husband. If you can’t make her change her mind, as your lawyer, I can only use legal means to protect your interests as much as possible. But you are the party in the wrong in this marriage. The law will not protect the party who is in the wrong.”

By the time they reached the court, they still had not reached a conclusion.

After listening to Lawyer Wang’s advice, Qiu Qin went to smoke at the toilet. He finished half a pack of cigarettes in no time. He had no say in this marriage. It was totally up to Qi Minlan whether she wanted to bring up divorce.

Therefore, if he did not want a divorce, he had to work on her.

Thankfully, he still had two hours before the court session started. After getting ready and getting rid of the smell of cigarettes on him, he dashed to the florist and bought ninety-nine red roses. He had a huge bouquet of roses when he came back to the court.

Unlike Qiu Qin who was early, Qi Minlan took her time and only arrived at the court half an hour before the court session started.

She had just gotten off the car when someone handed a bouquet of red roses to her. It was red and alluring. She was captivated and touched by it.

Qi Minlan patted her chest. “Have you sent it to the wrong…”

She sneered when she realized that it was Qiu Qin who was holding the bouquet of flowers. “Have you sent the flowers to the wrong person?” Should he not give these flowers to his mistress?

It was such a waste to give them to an old and haggard woman like her!

“No, Minlan, this is for you. In another month’s time, it will be our 25th wedding anniversary.” In the past, Qiu Qin would not remember any of the dates or anniversary. Qi Minlan felt rare that he would bring up the anniversary today.

“Alright. Give these flowers to your mistress. I don’t need them. As for the anniversary, we have not celebrated it in the past twenty years. There is no need for a celebration this year as well. The court session will start in twenty minutes. It will not be good to be late. Let’s go.” Qi Minlan smirked. Now, he knew to remember the dates and to give her flowers.

What nonsense was that?

It was too late!

“Minlan, I don’t want a divorce. Actually…”

Qiu Qin had yet to say his honeyed words and Qi Minlan had walked off in her high heels. She bypassed Qiu Qin and went in the direction of the court. “Leave all those honeyed words to your mistress. I have no need for them. We have spent half of our lives together. After Chenxi turned five years old, this is the first time that you said these gentle words to me. Do you think I will fall for it after such a long time?”

Did not want a divorce?

Fat hope!

“Qi Minlan, what do you want so as not to file for divorce?!” Qiu Qin had been given the cold shoulder time and again. He was so furious that he threw the flowers onto the ground and stomped on them.

To Qiu Qin, the bright and red roses were like the bossy smile on Qi Minlan’s face. It was detestable.

When Qi Minlan was on the way to the court, she saw Qiao Dongliang, who was on his way out.

Qi Minlan’s bright smile disappeared from her face. There was a dark look on her face. Why did she have to run into detestable people even when she was at the court?

Why did Qiao Nan’s father come to the court?

Qi Minlan noticed that there was a small red notebook in Qiao Dongliang’s hands. On it wrote ‘divorce certificate’. Qi Minlan was surprised.

The daughter was about to be engaged, yet the father got a divorce at this time. The family was indeed odd.

Qi Minlan knew who Qiao Dongliang was, but Qiao Dongliang did not know Qi Minlan. He walked past her without looking in her direction.

Qiao Dongliang felt relieved that he was finally divorced. A heavy weight was lifted off his heart.

“Qi Minlan…” Qiu Qin followed right after Qi Minlan.

Qiu Qin wanted to stop Qi Minlan from entering the court, but there were people on duty outside the court. If he did anything to Qi Minlan, he would be stopped by them.

Lawyer Wang witnessed this scene and was exasperated.

As the party who was in the wrong, what Qiu Qin and the Qiu family did was sufficient proof for them to be divorced.

Now, he was caught using force on his wife outside the court by the security on duty. It could be viewed as domestic violence.

It was a disaster to have such a client. It was worse because he did not understand the law.

“Director Qiu, stop it, stop it. If you continue to do so, there is no need to go to court.” Lawyer Wang ran toward Qiu Qin and pulled at him.

In the end, although Qiu Qin did not agree to it, Qi Minlan had sufficient evidence to prove that Qiu Qin had betrayed Qi Minlan’s trust in the marriage and he was also caught using force on her outside the court.

Since they no longer had a mutual affection for each other, the law in China would not insist that they stayed as a couple. The court ruled that they could divorce each other.

By the time they walked out of the court, each of them had a newly issued divorce certificate in their hands.

“Qiu Qin, we will no longer have any relations to each other in the future. I will not see you again. Make sure you don’t come looking for me. It’s useless even if you look for me!” Qi Minlan was still angry about what happened regarding the ancient tomb.

Qiu Qin earned a huge sum of money from the excavation of the ancient tomb. However, Qiu Qin did not give her a single cent and only used them on his mistress, yet he did not want to divorce her today and wanted to implicate her. He was such a heartless man.

Qiu Qin had a sullen look on his face. “I can understand that husband and wife might be living in the same forest, but when faced with adversity, they would fly away in different directions. I have no wish to bring up the unhappiness in the past. At the very least, we used to be husband and wife. I have agreed to all your requests on the divorce agreement today at the court. I only have one question to ask of you and I hope that you can tell me the truth. Am I going to be in trouble?”

Qi Minlan hesitated slightly at his words. She did not refuse him outright.

After a long while, Qi Minlan sucked in her breath. “Touch pitch and you shall be defiled. Be careful. This is all that I can say.”

Qiu Qin should be clear what he had been up to. He should know very well what would happen to him as well.

After saying that, Qi Minlan walked off without looking back.

Qi Minlan had most of the money that Qiu Qin and Qi Minlan earned through legal means.

Qi Minlan did not ask for the Qiu family’s residence at Ping Cheng. If Qiu Qin was caught, at the very least, the elderly couple of the Qiu family would have a roof over their heads.

Qi Minlan had no wish to tarnish her reputation because of her divorce with Qiu Qin.

Qi Minlan was not too young, but she was not old either. She looked pretty as well. She might have a second relationship and another chance at marriage.
