Jiang Tingxia paused with the pencil in his hand and poked a big black dot on the nearly finished design drawing.

She was a little dazed, but still asked, "Divorce report?"

Li Changpu was still chopping the vegetables and didn't even look up at her. He asked her calmly as usual what she wanted for dinner.

He explained, "Military marriages must bring a divorce report to be stamped in Wenhai City, and only after it is stamped will the divorce procedure be officially effective."

"At that time, your household registration and food supply can be transferred back with a divorce certificate."

Jiang Tingxia clenched his fists, his tone was stiff, and his meaning was definitely not what he said. He praised Li Changpu, "You have considered it very carefully."

She asked, "Have you already written your divorce report?"

Li Changpu: "Yes, it can be handed in tomorrow."

Jiang Tingxia was so angry that his chest heaved and he sneered a few times.

Holding a pencil in her hand, she scribbled two strokes on the designed suit, and the paper instantly turned black, ruining this unique suit.

All these days of hard work have been in vain.

Jiang Tingxia held the pen tightly, pretending not to care and said, "That would be great."

The sound of chopping vegetables could still be heard from the chopping board. Jiang Tingxia felt her blood boiling. After a while, she added, "Of course we want a divorce. I think so too."

Jiang Tingxia felt her face flush with embarrassment when she didn't get a response. Her first reaction was to save face and said, "We have been pretending to be a couple and we don't know what we are doing."

"Submit your divorce report tomorrow and we'll get divorced."

"The sooner the better."

The more Jiang listened to Xia Yue's words, the more confused she became. She couldn't wait to save face with Li Changpu. She seemed relieved and let out a long sigh, "Yes."

"Actually, I've always wanted to tell you about the divorce. Now that it's settled, I feel a lot more relieved."

With a sizzling sound, Li Changpu poured the chicken pieces into the hot oil. He forgot to control the water, and the water flowed into the hot oil, splashing oil everywhere. He didn't even try to dodge and started stir-frying with a spatula. The back of his hands and forearms were covered with splattered oil spots.

Jiang Tingxia was obviously talking more and she even raised her voice, trying to outsmart Li Changpu's cooking. She covered her chest and smiled, "It's like a huge stone has been lifted off my shoulders."

She forgot that she was injured and suddenly stood up when she was excited. She immediately felt a piercing pain in her feet. This time she did not cry out in pain, but insisted on keeping her feet on the ground, as if torturing herself.

During dinner, Jiang Tingxia looked at the table full of food and had no appetite at all. She felt like something was stuck in her throat and she couldn't eat a single bite.

But she still picked up the chopsticks and dug into the white rice in the bowl, taking a bite of meat, a bite of vegetables and a bite of rice. She ate a whole bowl of meat and vegetables, and she ate it all up. She also praised Li Changpu, "The food you cooked today tastes good."

"good to eat."

Li Changpu ate in silence. She felt that it was not what she said. The chicken was burnt and had a bitter taste.

After dinner, Jiang Tingxia watched Li Changpu take out the divorce report from the drawer, feeling indescribably angry. She didn't know how long this thing had been there.

When Li Changpu handed her the pen, Jiang Tingxia signed her name in a casual and elegant manner without thinking.

Li Changpu put the divorce report back into the drawer, planning to hand it in tomorrow morning. When he closed the drawer, he saw the salary he had just received today. Excluding the ten yuan he gave to his hometown, he added twenty yuan to the original salary for his sister this month.

The salary I had just received was instantly reduced by half.

Li Changpu silently put the divorce report in, covering the cloth bag containing the money.

Under the dim light, Jiang Tingxia limped out of the door in the simple house. She pulled the old wooden door open with some force, and the door creaked. When Li Changpu saw her like this, he suddenly remembered when he saw her at the train station. She looked so energetic and vivid, as if covered with a layer of light. He really felt that he owed her.

Without the paulownia tree, the golden phoenix would not land.

If you can't give her a better life, why keep her?

……

"You want a divorce?"

Li Changpu stood straighter than a pine or cypress tree, "Yes."

He Zhihai looked at the divorce report on the table, and then at the righteous Li Changpu. When he went to the battlefield in the past, he and the old soldiers huddled in the tunnels, both of them went to the battlefield with a desperate mentality, they were very careful with their mouths, and what they said was absolutely true. They boasted about all sorts of things. When they talked about women, the boy was seventeen or eighteen years old at that time, like a gourd with a sawed mouth. He was embarrassed to be laughed at by the old soldiers, so he said unconvincedly that the wife he would marry in the future was just a wife, children, and a warm bed, and he would go home to have a hot meal.

He is a young man, but inexplicably old-fashioned. Even his concept of marriage is the most traditional. For such a person, if he gets married, it is a lifelong commitment and he has absolutely no concept of divorce.

So he asked suspiciously, "Whose idea was it?"

Li Changpu was extremely determined, "I proposed it."

He Zhihai was furious. Well, after only a few years of good life, he turned bad.

He has seen a lot of such things, where people get divorced without any hesitation and abandon their original spouse and children. They have no loyalty or respect for marriage at all and treat divorce and marriage as a joke. What a terrible atmosphere.

He Zhihai scolded, "You and Xiaoxia have only been married for a short time, and you want to divorce. Are you still a man? Do you have any sense of responsibility?"

He Zhihai threw the divorce report at Li Changpu and said, "I won't approve it."

Li Changpu picked up the divorce report and put it back on the desk. "Then I'll hand it over to the Organization Department."

The Organization Department can also review and approve divorce reports.

The matter of divorce could not be hidden from He Zhihai. In this case, Li Changpu thought it would be better to hand it over to him directly. It would be better than him hearing about it from others. Besides, Jiang Tingxia wanted the divorce report urgently, so if he went directly to the old leader, the procedures would be completed quickly.

He Zhihai was furious, but seeing Li Changpu's determined look, he felt embarrassed. This kid had been following him since he was ten years old, how could he not know that he was a stubborn person.

He Zhihai could only hold back his anger and ask, "Why?"

Li Changpu gave the excuse he had prepared long ago, "We can't live together."

The high-sounding reasons are obviously misleading.

He Zhihai sat at the dining table and mentioned this to Nanfang, "I ran into them at the clinic a few days ago. They were in a good relationship, but within a few days, they are getting divorced. Isn't this ridiculous?"

Nanfang: "Did the couple have a quarrel and lose their temper?"

He Zhihai: "I think it's possible."

"Young people are too impulsive and do whatever they want. I'm holding this divorce report here. If I don't approve it, it will be fine in a few days."

Nanfang was a little worried and advised, "This is not a solution either."

"How about this, you call them over tomorrow, and we can have a meal together to see what happened to them. Once we have resolved this issue, we can live together in the future."

He Zhihai thought about it and agreed.
