    Chapter 127 Divorce

    "Ming Ze, I knew you would choose me!"

    Zheng Anran finally stopped crying and smiled through her tears, taking the initiative to hug Yu Mingze.

    Yu Mingze sighed, making his promise: "An Ran, wait for me. I will go through the divorce tomorrow. Once everything is prepared, I will come to marry you."

    "Ming Ze, I believe you!"

    Zheng Anran buried her head in his chest, revealing a victorious smile.

    "Kids these days are so clingy."

    In the security room at the entrance, an older security guard sipped his herbal tea and silently remarked.

    He dutifully guarded the area, stopping and questioning strangers or unfamiliar vehicles.

    No doubt, he would once again be awarded the company's Employee of the Year.

    Zheng Anran looked up and asked him pointedly, "Ming Ze, will you blame me for coming out to see you so late?"

    "No, how could I possibly blame you?"

    Yu Mingze smiled affectionately.

    "An Ran, it's so late. Let me take you home?"

    "No need, my friend is here. He'll take me back!"

    "Your friend?"

    "Yes, he also brought me here. His car is right over there!"

    But Zheng Anran instantly regretted her words.

    What if Yu Mingze suddenly wanted to greet her "friend"? How would she explain Qin Lang's identity to him?

    "Ming Ze, you go back. My friend will take me home!"

    Qin Lang was sitting quietly in the car, unseen by Yu Mingze, and Zheng Anran didn't want Yu Mingze to have any contact with him.

    Yu Mingze thought the car parked by the roadside looked somewhat familiar, but he didn't suspect anything. "Alright, An Ran, you go back too. Remember to call me when you get home?"

    "Mm, I know!"

    Zheng Anran suddenly stood on her tiptoes and gave him a quick peck on the cheek.

    "Ming Ze, I'm leaving?"

    "Mm, go ahead!"

    Yu Mingze watched her get into the car and watched as the car slowly drove away.

    He stood there for a moment before finally turning to leave.

    Since he was going to divorce, he needed to make it clear to Song Qingyu: the child could remain with her, but he hoped she wouldn't use the child to tie him down in the future!

    "What is it?"

    As soon as the door opened, Song Qingyu was taken aback to see Yu Mingze standing outside.

    Yu Mingze's gaze fell on her belly. "Do you have a moment? I need to talk to you."

    "Just say it right here."

    Song Qingyu was very tired and just wanted him to finish quickly so she could go back to sleep.

    Yu Mingze steadied himself and said, "Pack your things tomorrow and come with me."

    "Huh? Where to?"

    "The Civil Affairs Bureau. What for?"

    The Civil Affairs Bureau?

    Song Qingyu understood. She stifled a yawn, her eyes welling up with tears. "Are you asking for a divorce?"

    "Yes, that's right."

    Seeing her cry over such unexpected news, Yu Mingze suddenly felt a bit of remorse.

    "I'll break the news to my parents about the divorce. You can tell me what compensation you want."

    "No need, I'll have everything ready. See you tomorrow."

    With that, Song Qingyu stepped back into the room.

    Yu Mingze instinctively wanted to step forward but almost bumped into the closing door.

    He quickly felt his perfectly straight nose.

    Good, it wasn't damaged.

    But Song Qingyu... she must be really upset, huh?

    Yu Mingze shook his head, thinking that he had already chosen An Ran, and it was best not to care about Song Qingyu's feelings, lest An Ran find out and be even more hurt.

    Now the most important thing was to think about how to tell his parents about this!

    It's pretty late, they're probably asleep. Maybe I'll go to their place in the morning and talk to them?

    -

    "An Ran, what's got you so happy?"

    While driving, Qin Lang's attention was always on Zheng Anran.

    Zheng Anran nodded, her face unable to hide her joy: "Qin Lang, I might be tying the knot soon!"

    "Married? To that man just now?"

    Qin Lang was surprised, thinking that if she got married, wouldn't the task his boss assigned him fail?

    "An Ran, were you so sad when we came here because of him?"

    "Yes, but it's all resolved now, I'm not sad anymore!"

    Zheng Anran was eager to take this news home to tell Fang Fei, looking forward to seeing her equally happy expression.

    "Qin Lang, when I get married, I will definitely invite you!"

    Qin Lang sighed deeply, said with a sigh of disappointment, "An Ran, what will I do if you get married? Your boyfriend definitely won't agree to you hanging out with me, right?"

    "No way! He's not like that!"

    But then again, maybe not.

    Zheng Anran really wanted to marry Yu Mingze, but she also couldn't bear to part with Qin Lang, who was sweet-talking and brought her joy.

    "Qin Lang, even if I get married, we can still hang out!"

    "An Ran, do you really think so?"

    "Of course, who I make friends with and who I go out with, he can't control that!"

    Qin Lang chuckled, "Good, then I'm relieved. I was afraid you wouldn't want me as a friend after you got married."

    Zheng Anran shook her head, "How could that be!"

    Since Qin Lang had no intention of cutting ties with her, she was willing to continue giving him chances, secretly stringing him along behind Yu Mingze's back.

    In public, she could be the dignified 'Mrs. Yu,' but in private...

    After all, Yu Mingze already had a child with Song Qingyu. Who could blame her? She was just playing around with a friend, what harm was there?

    Zheng Anran believed that as long as her conscience was clear, her future would be bright!

    "Mom, I'm back!"

    Qin Lang escorted her home.

    As soon as she entered the house, Zheng Anran eagerly sought out Fang Fei in the room.

    Because of a string of recent setbacks, Fang Fei had grown several white hairs, and her well-maintained face had gained a few more fine lines.

    But without Fu Yining, she couldn't even enter high-end clubs, and there was no suitable place to fix things.

    "Mom, I have good news to tell you!"

    Seeing the excitement on her daughter's face, Fang Fei tried to muster some enthusiasm.

    "My dear An Ran, what's the good news that's got you so excited?"

    Zheng Anran leaned close to her, snuggling into Fang Fei's embrace.

    "Mom, Mingze promised me he'd divorce Song Qingyu tomorrow and marry me soon!"

    "An Ran, what, what did you just say?"

    Zheng Anran hugged her, her voice both excited and slightly shy, "Mom, you heard right, I'm soon to be the rightful Mrs. Yu!"

    "Really?"

    "It's true, Mingze said it in front of me, if he lies to me again, I won't want him anymore!"

    Fang Fei was struck by this surprising news, almost breathless with joy.

    She hugged her daughter tightly, excitedly saying, "That's wonderful, my precious An Ran, you're finally getting your wish!"

    "Mom will prepare the wedding things for you tomorrow, and the guests, we need to think carefully about who to invite! Where's your dad? Call him quickly, he'll be so happy to hear this news!"

    Zheng Anran nodded shyly.

    "But mom, there's one more thing I need to tell you."

    "Folks, in our story, there's no cooling-off period for divorce, or else it'd take forever. And don't complain about Zheng and Fang having too many scenes, they're like grasshoppers after autumn!"
