Chapter 43 - Chapter 43: That Depends on the Degree of the Rift in Feelings

Xia Qiaoan returned to her own place and soaked in the bathtub for a long time.

She was feeling regretful, not only because she underestimated the degree of Li Mochen's madness, and had been given to the tiger, but more importantly, she still didn't hate Li Mochen.

She even thought over and over again, whether that Li Mochen who carefully wiped her body was reality or a dream.

At this moment, Ye Wei's phone rang.

"Hey, Anan, what are you doing? Are you okay?" Ye Wei was very worried because she hadn't heard from her for a day and a night.

Xia Qiaoan adjusted her state and briefly replied, "Mm."

Ye Wei said, "I found Gu Yu today and introduced you to the best legal counsel in their company. You should sue Xia Wenwen. She instigated someone to kidnap you, it's simply insane. Sue her and make her rot in jail."

In an instant, Xia Qiaoan hesitated.

She wasn't a saint. What she had always adhered to was the principle of "do not offend me, and I will not offend you." But perhaps it was innate, a matter of bloodline or genes, but she couldn't answer so straightforwardly about sending Xia Wenwen to prison.

"Hey, Anan, are you still listening?"

Ye Wei kept reminding her on the other end of the phone.

Xia Qiaoan came back to her senses, "Oh, okay, give me the lawyer's phone number, I'll contact him, and I also have something I want to consult him."

"How do I hear it, you want to let Xia Wenwen go?"

"The rumors and gossip on the internet are enough to give her a headache, and Dad and Mom... Li Guiqin, they both sold off their assets and are both lying in the hospital."

"See, I knew it, you softened again."

Xia Qiaoan explained, "She's not the most important thing now, I just don't want to get involved in her."

Ye Wei said with a little frustration, "What else could be important to you?"

"I'll tell you in person. Give me the lawyer's contact information first, I'm a little tired and want to rest."

Ye Wei could also hear that Xia Qiaoan's voice wasn't just tired, it was as if she had experienced a storm and a shower. She couldn't persuade her anymore, so she hung up the phone and sent Zhang the lawyer's phone number.

Xia Qiaoan stared at the phone for a few seconds, then resolutely dialed it.

"Hello, Lawyer Zhang, how are you?"

"Hello, is this Ms. Xia?"

"Yes, I have something I want to consult you about."

"Okay, General Gu has instructed me that you are Ms. Ye's good friend, and let me do my best to help you."

"I don't have anything in particular, but I have a relative at home, her relationship with her husband has broken down, and she wants a divorce, but she's encountered some difficulties."

"Oh, you mean the man doesn't agree, right?"

"It seems so, in any case, it's been quite a while, and it hasn't been done. My relative is quite anxious, so she asked me to inquire."

Lawyer Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Ms. Xia, I'm mainly responsible for some legal matters related to the company, and I'm not very professional in civil matters like divorce. But I still know some basic things. If one party is unwilling to cooperate with the other party to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedures, you can go through the litigation channel."

"What's the success rate?"

"That depends on the degree of the emotional breakdown between the two parties." Lawyer Zhang continued, "If there is one party who has had an affair or domestic violence, with such serious problems, then the success rate is relatively high. However, some arguments and conflicts may not lead to the judge granting a divorce. After all, the birth rate in society is declining now, and they are very cautious in this regard."

The hand that Xia Qiaoan held the phone in was somewhat stiff.

She understood why Li Mochen always looked so calm and indifferent; it turned out that he had already had a plan, and had probably consulted top lawyers long ago.

If he didn't cooperate, this divorce really couldn't be accomplished.

But she, Xia Qiaoan, was really someone who would rise to the challenge. She dared not guarantee whether she would meet someone who would make her heart flutter in the future, she wasn't afraid that her record would always be a married woman, she just wanted to be tough with Li Mochen to the end, just as she said, this world isn't about him, nor is it about money.

"Okay, Lawyer Zhang, I'll contact you again after I've asked my relative about the situation. If we need to go to court, I'll have to consult you again."

"No problem, after you've asked clearly, if you need it, I have a friend who is an expert in divorce litigation cases, and I can introduce them to you."

"That would be great, thank you very much."

After hanging up Lawyer Zhang's call, Xia Qiaoan sank herself into the pool to clear her somewhat muddled mind with water.

Suddenly, she remembered something and jumped out of the water.

She looked at the date, yes, it was today, today was the day of the land auction!

Xia Qiaoan opened the unread message, and sure enough, she found the message from Shi Huai, telling her the auction time and location.

It's just that last night... last night she simply didn't have time to reply.

Xia Qiaoan quickly got out of the bathtub, put on a set of energetic clothes, and hurried to the auction hall.
