The heavens set sail from the courtyard

When Xie Meilan saw Wang Gang and Lu Jie come in together, a trace of panic flashed across her face.

Xie Meilan did not inform Lu Jie when she asked Wang Gang to come and pick up something today.

The house that Xie Meilan lives in now belongs to Lu Jie, but the two do not live together. Lu Jie lives somewhere else.

In fact, Xie Meilan and Lu Jie have not officially been together yet. It’s not that Lu Jie doesn’t want to, but Xie Meilan has been hesitating.

Xie Meilan was a very smart woman. She knew that for a man, not being able to get what he wanted was the best. So while she enjoyed Lu Jie's pursuit, she rejected him on the pretext that they had not yet officially divorced.

"Mr. Lu, I asked Shen Lei to come and take his things away." Xie Meilan pointed to a few boxes in the corner and explained.

Lu Jie smiled brightly and said, "Mr. Shen, please check if anything is missing, otherwise you will make a wasted trip."

Wang Gang raised his eyebrows and said, "No, I'll take it and leave."

Lu Jie smiled falsely and said, "No! It's a rare visit, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea? I remember I have a collection of excellent tea cakes at home."

Xie Meilan said in panic: "He doesn't like tea."

Wang Gang said with a smile: "My taste has changed recently, and I really like drinking tea."

Xie Meilan's face changed and she looked at Wang Gang with resentment.

Lu Jie didn't care, he laughed and said, "Meilan, you go greet Mr. Shen first, I'll go get the tea set."

After saying that, Lu Jie walked towards the kitchen, and Wang Gang walked around the living room with his hands behind his back.

"This house is quite big. The living room is even bigger than our previous home. Do you live alone?" Wang Gang teased Xie Meilan.

"Shen Lei, what do you want to do? Do you really want to stay for tea?"

"Why not!" Wang Gang said contentedly, "Are you afraid that I will say bad things about you in front of your boyfriend?"

Xie Meilan frowned and said: “Shen Lei, you are still so naive. Lu and I are innocent. He just lent me the house to live in.”

Wang Gang sneered: "Do you believe that? Such a big house must cost at least tens of millions! Why would they lend it to you?"

Xie Meilan said angrily: "Shen Lei, whether you believe it or not, I will not accept any man before the divorce."

Wang Gang said disdainfully: "Don't worry! I'm not interested in your business. We have already signed a divorce agreement. I can't control how many men you want to find. But I want to remind you that you are still pregnant."

Xie Meilan gritted her teeth and said, "I have already aborted the child."

Wang Gang's face darkened and he said, "Didn't I ask you to let me know before you make a decision?"

Xie Meilan lowered her head and said, "I don't want to delay my future because of a child."

Wang Gang said coldly: "Is this your decision or his?"

Xie Meilan said firmly: "No matter whose decision it was, the child is gone. I hope you can accept the reality. There is no need for us to meet in the future."

Wang Gang said gloomily, "You have to think clearly. Why does Lu Jie, a CEO of a listed company, like a 30-year-old middle-aged woman like you who has been divorced and had an abortion?"

Xie Meilan was so angry that she asked, "Shen Lei, what do you mean?"

Wang Gang snorted coldly: "Lu Jie approached you for no reason other than beauty. He must have other purposes. You better take care of yourself."

At this time, Lu Jie came out of the kitchen with tea sets and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, I haven't used this set of tea sets for a long time. Please wait a moment, I will clean it."

"No need. I'm not in the mood for tea." Wang Gang said with a cold face, "I'll leave after I get my things."

Wang Gang walked to the corner, picked up the box and prepared to leave.

"Mr. Shen, it's inconvenient for you to carry so many things. Let me help you!"

Lu Jie enthusiastically picked up a box and wanted to help Wang Gang deliver it to the gate of the community.

"No, I can still carry this little thing." Wang Gang rejected Lu Jie's kindness.

"Taxis can't enter our community. It's still a long way to get to the gate with your things. Let me drive you there!" Lu Jie insisted and walked out the door with the box.

"Meilan, don't come out. I'll send Mr. Shen off and be back soon." Xie Meilan's face twitched, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to scrape out a three-bedroom apartment.

Wang Gang knew that Lu Jie had something to say to him and deliberately sent Xie Meilan away, so he did not insist.

Lu Jie helped Wang Gang move his things into the car, and then drove to the entrance of the community.

After parking the car, Lu Jie took out a check and handed it to Wang Gang.

Wang Gang glanced at the amount on the check. Five hundred thousand was not a small amount.

"what do you mean."

Lu Jie smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, I know that Meilan aborted your child, which hurt you a lot. This little money is my compensation."

Wang Gang said coldly: "So this is the money that will buy my child's life."

Lu Jie said with a fake smile: "Whatever you think, this is what I give to you on behalf of Meilan. I hope you won't have any more encounters in the future."

Wang Gang took the check, and Lu Jie's smile grew wider, but the next moment his smile froze on his face.

Tear it apart!

Wang Gang simply tore up the check and scattered the pieces of paper in the car.

Lu Jie's face darkened and he said, "Mr. Shen, are you really going to keep pestering Meilan?"

Wang Gang said coldly: "A woman like Xie Meilan makes me sick if I look at her for even a second. If you like her, take her away, but you shouldn't hurt my child."

Lu Jie and Xie Meilan finally touched Wang Gang's bottom line.

Wang Gang had never had any problem with Xie Meilan, and he wanted to divorce her because he wanted them to be more comfortable with each other.

The reason is that I don’t care because I have no feelings.

Whether Xie Meilan cheated or not, it doesn't matter whether Shen Lei married his wife or not, not Wang Gang.

Because there was no emotional connection, Wang Gang was able to part ways amicably.

But it’s different with children. After all, Xie Meilan’s belly is the blood of the Shen family. Wang Gang even wants to use money to make Xie Meilan give birth to the child. It can be seen that life is Wang Gang’s bottom line.

However, Wang Gang was still angry at Lu Jie and Xie Meilan's cold-bloodedness.

"Mr. Shen, I know you are a civil servant. In fact, I know a lot of people in the office. I can introduce some friends to you, which will be very helpful for your career." Lu Jie said temptingly.

Wang Gang said with a sullen face: "I don't know why you like Xie Meilan. Whether you are attracted to her beauty or want to use her, I don't care. But if you make me lose my child, I will kill you."

When Lu Jie heard Wang Gang's threat, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Mr. Shen, we live in a society ruled by law now. You should be careful with your words. Be careful of what you say!"

Wang Gang glanced at the dashcam in the car, then opened the door and glanced at Lu Jie.

Lu Jie suddenly felt a chill running down his back, as if he was being stared at by a tiger.

"What do you want to do?" Lu Jie swallowed and said.

Wang Gang snorted coldly: "Boss Lu, there is a long way to go. Let's wait and see."
After saying that, Wang Gang opened the trunk, took out his things, and hailed a taxi to leave.

Not until Wang Gang had gone away did Lu Jie heave a sigh of relief, and then he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"How could I be scared by a small civil servant?" Lu Jie shook his head and drove back to the garage.

After returning home, Xie Meilan came up to him and said to Lu Jie: "Mr. Lu, I really just asked Shen Lei to pick up something today."

"Of course I believe you." Lu Jie said gently: "I just talked to Mr. Shen, he should have accepted the fact that the child is gone."

Xie Meilan struggled and said, "Actually, Shen Lei is a good person, but our personalities are so different that we just can't get along."

Lu Jie smiled and said, "Don't think too much. When the divorce cooling-off period is over, you can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the formalities!"

"Yeah." Xie Meilan leaned gently on Lu Jie's chest, but she didn't see the mockery in Lu Jie's eyes. (End of this chapter)
