A week later on Friday night, Nan Chu had just got off the plane and came out of the exit when she saw the man standing by the car, smoking and waiting for her.

Nan Chu couldn't help but quicken his pace and trot over, looking towards the car: "Did you bring Lu Ruzhuo with you?"

Lu Zhilu put out his cigarette, raised his chin towards her, and gestured, "Get in the car. I won't take care of the child tonight. I'll take you to do something else."

Nan Chu got in the car, buckled his seat belt and asked, "What are you going to do? To the hotel?"

Lu Zhilu started the car, tilted his head to look at her, and said with a smirk, "Why do you keep thinking about these things? But if you really want to go to the hotel, I'll take you there now."

Nan Chu: "..."

Isn't he the one who thinks about these things?

Every time I fly to Shenzhen, I go straight to the hotel after dinner.

He has been to Shenzhen several times. Whenever they were together, they rarely got out of bed. They didn't have much entertainment. They just ate and did it, and did it and ate.

Nan Chu could also understand that food and sex are part of human nature and no one can escape this.

"So where to go now?"

"Go to the law firm."

He made an appointment with Ye Xuechu to come to the law firm tonight to discuss the termination of the contract.

……

When Lu Zhilu took Nan Chu to the law firm's conference room, Ye Xuechu and her agent had already arrived, and there were other colleagues from the legal department in the conference room to receive them.

When Ye Xuechu saw the woman next to Lu Zhilu, his sharp eyes were obviously startled.

She said in a mocking tone, "When did Lawyer Lu start bringing his family members with him when discussing work? Also, let me remind you that the content of our work negotiations is confidential. It seems that she cannot stand here and observe our work."

Nan Chu said, "How about I wait for you outside?"

It was just a termination of a contract, and there was really no need for her to keep an eye on the whole process.

"We are just terminating the contract and there is no confidentiality involved."

Lu Zhilu’s answer was also very official.

He asked Nan Chu to sit in a seat farther away in the conference room, "Just wait for me here."

During the termination process, Ye Xuechu had a sour face throughout.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but a cup of coffee was spilled during the process. Lu Zhilu asked his colleagues in the legal department to redraft the termination agreement.

While waiting, Ye Xuechu glanced at Nan Chu who was sitting not far away.

She asked Lu Zhilu: "Are you planning to remarry her?"

Lu Zhilu did not deny it, and said in a lukewarm tone: "This seems to be my personal matter, right? It has nothing to do with Miss Ye?"

"It doesn't matter much, but I'm just wondering why it was her in the end. I thought you wouldn't look back even if you were to marry into the Lin family."

Lu Zhilu lowered his head and flipped through the agreement, and replied casually, "There's no need to talk about why in a relationship. If I have to talk about why, it's because I want it this way."

A hint of surprise and faint loneliness flashed across Ye Xuechu's proud eyes. She suddenly didn't know what to say. She just smiled coldly with her red lips and said three words: "You have changed."

In the past, Lu Zhilu would never say this: Don’t talk about the reasons when it comes to love.

All his feelings and emotions are not without cause or reason.

He is used to weighing the pros and cons, and talks about gains and losses and results in everything.

Just like when she was going to fly to New York to mingle in the Vanity Fair world and asked him to wait for her, what did he say? He said he didn't want to wait in vain for an uncertain future. It was meaningless and he couldn't afford to wait.

Soon, a new contract was sent over from the Legal Department.

Lu Zhilu handed her the pen and said, "Sign it if there is no problem. The penalty will be transferred to your studio account within a week."

Ye Xuechu flipped through it, found nothing wrong, and took the pen from his hand.

The tip of the pen stopped above the signature, and after a few seconds, she raised her eyes and asked, "Are you sure you want to terminate the contract with me for personal reasons? Pay me such a large amount of liquidated damages? Actually, it's meaningless. There is still half a year left, and our cooperation is going to end anyway."

Doing so is obviously not worth the effort.

Lu Zhilu said calmly, "It's boring, but there are some things that are not interesting to talk about. Sign it. You know I don't like to become enemies with my ex. Let's part ways in peace."

Ye Xuechu curled his lips and smiled contemptuously, probably knowing that it was irreversible. Lu Zhilu had made up his mind and could not waver anymore. He quickly signed his name with a pen.

She handed him one of the signed copies.

When Lu Zhilu went to pick it up, she suddenly pulled out the contract and asked a question: "Actually, there is a question I have never asked you, and I really want to know."

"ask."

"If I hadn't left and really stayed and agreed to marry you, and your grandfather didn't agree for us to be together, would you have fought for me to the end?"

Lu Zhilu had never thought about this question, but he quickly gave an answer: "There are no ifs in my life."

I knew this would be the answer.

She stopped pretending and asked directly: "Okay, let me ask it another way. Did you like me as much as you like her now?"

Lu Zhilu: “No.”

These two words were spoken with certainty and without any hesitation.

The smile on Ye Xuechu's lips was very forced, as if she really admitted it. She threw the contract on the conference table, got up and left with her bag.

In a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft, he said, "Although I don't think you will have a good future, I still wish you a happy marriage."

Before leaving, she looked at Nan Chu provocatively.

But what he saw was the diamond ring on Nan Chu's finger. That was the promise Lu Zhilu made to her. He had never given this promise to anyone else, only to Nan Chu.

She suddenly felt ridiculous.

This is the other half that Lu Zhilu finally chose after "weighing the pros and cons". Where are the pros and cons?

She even reflected at this moment, was it because she didn't love Lu Zhilu enough at the beginning?

But she found that there was no answer, because she didn't even know what kind of feelings Nan Chu had for Lu Zhilu. Because she didn't know, she couldn't make a comparison.

After Ye Xuechu left the meeting room, she put on sunglasses, but her eyes felt sore and warm liquid was flowing, which she held back fiercely.

Here, Lu Zhilu handed the termination contract to Nan Chu: "Do you want to check it?"

Nan Chu asked curiously, "How much liquidated damages do you have to pay if you terminate the contract with her halfway through?"

Lu Zhilu: "Fifty million."

Nan Chu's lips parted, and he was speechless for a moment: "Why is she still so angry? She should be happy, getting 50 million for free is like money falling from the sky."

I have to say, 50 million can buy a lot of platinum bags...

Lu Zhilu joked: "Then should I call her back now and work with her again?"

"Don't."

Nan Chu grabbed his arm and muttered, "It's all solved, let's just forget it."

Moreover, she really didn't like Ye Xuechu always hanging around in front of Lu Zhilu, which made her very annoyed.

Lu Zhilu took the termination agreement from her hand, threw it on the table, and took out a new agreement: "Take a closer look at this, it has something to do with you."

Nan Chu opened it and saw a prenuptial agreement.

Her eyes suddenly trembled, and her face turned slightly pale: "What do you mean?"

Lu Zhilu said, "Don't get me wrong. We got married casually before, and we didn't draft a prenuptial agreement like this. Most of my assets were generated before the marriage, and legally, those assets really have little to do with you. But this time, in this prenuptial agreement, the part that belongs to you is clearly marked, and it will take effect immediately once we remarry."

She flipped through the agreement, which detailed several pieces of property with higher values.

For example, half of the dividends and appreciation of SY shares in Lu Zhilu's hands belong to her.

There were also several properties in scarce locations that were given to her free of charge before their marriage.
