I Want A Divorce!
Even Lu's grandfather, who was leaning on his cane, was stunned.
But he was a man who had seen and experienced much in life.
After a brief moment, a kind smile appeared on his face again, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes almost formed a flower.
He excitedly patted Gu Ling's back, his satisfaction growing even deeper.
"Ling, Grandpa knew I wasn't wrong about you!"
"I never expected you to have such amazing skills at such a young age!"
"You've done a great service to our Lu family!"
Indeed, she was the granddaughter of his old friend. Young, yet already showing the same fearless spirit.
Old friend, your granddaughter did not embarrass you. Rest in peace in heaven.
Compared to everyone else's shock, Gu Ling remained completely calm.
"Grandpa, you're too kind."
Seeing how she and the old man were chatting and laughing, Lu Ming felt like he had been slapped across the face.
His cheeks burned with embarrassment!
Especially when he saw how happy his grandfather was with Gu Ling.
He had wanted to bring up the divorce, but now he couldn't say a single word.
Just then, Lin Miaoyuan timely spoke in a soft, pitiful voice.
"I never expected Miss Gu to be so skilled… I misjudged her."
"Before, I thought she didn't know anything… It's strange how someone can suddenly become so talented…"
She bit her lip and sighed sadly.
"A Ming… Miss Gu is clearly capable. Meanwhile, I… I can't even compare to her."
"You shouldn't consider divorce just because of me… If anyone should leave, it should be me."
Her sorrowful words immediately snapped Lu Ming back to his senses!
"Miaoyuan, don't say that!" He quickly grabbed her hand.
"A waste is a waste! How could she suddenly become powerful?!"
"Just like how she always tries to seduce me, she must have used some despicable method this time too!"
"How could trash like her possibly compare to you?!"
After saying that, Lu Ming glared fiercely at Gu Ling.
Then, ignoring everyone present—including the Lu family's elders, he spoke with disdain.
"I told you before, if a woman tries to seduce me, she's asking for death!"
"You didn't take my words seriously at all!"
"Just a few days ago, you even said you wanted a divorce. Ha! It was just a pathetic excuse to get my attention!"
"Now that you've caused this mess, are you satisfied?!"
Gu Ling simply sneered.
She had never seen someone more narcissistic than Lu Ming.
Her cold laughter sounded like mockery to Lu Ming, making him even angrier!
This woman…!
Just as Lu Ming was about to explode in rage,
Gu Ling suddenly spoke.
"Are you a dog?"
The question caught everyone off guard.
A stunned silence fell over the entire room.
Lu Ming's face froze in disbelief.
A dog?!
She was comparing him to a dog?!
He clenched his fists, about to lash out—
But before he could say a word, Gu Ling coldly continued:
"No—"
"You're not a dog. You're worse than a dog."
"Even trained police dogs can understand human language. But you?"
"You don't even have that ability."
Her voice was ice-cold and full of contempt.
"I'm saying this for the last time. I want a divorce!"
"Do you understand?!"
The moment her firm, unyielding words fell
Everyone felt like they had been struck by lightning!
They stared at Gu Ling, eyes wide in shock.
Did she even realize what she was saying?!
One of the distant Lu family relatives muttered, "I remember how shameless Gu Ling was when she pursued Lu Ming…"
"She begged and pleaded, even tried bribing me with gifts just so I'd say good things about her."
"Now… she's actually the one asking for a divorce?!"
The entire Lu family erupted in disbelief.
Inside the hospital ward, where no one could see.
A man sat quietly, listening to every single word outside.
Lu Lingxiao's thin lips moved slightly, curving into a faint smirk.
Outside, Lu Ming gritted his teeth and snapped.
"Gu Ling, you've gone too far! No matter what, I will never give up on Miaoyuan! The only person I love is her!"
"You're not even worth one of her fingers!"
"Since you said it yourself—fine! Let's divorce right now!!!"
Just then—
BANG!
Lu Laotaiye, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly slammed his cane against the ground twice.
Everyone fell quiet.
His deep, authoritative voice echoed through the room.
"I won't agree to this!"
For the first time, he truly realized how much Gu Ling had suffered at the hands of his grandson.
He turned to Gu Ling, his tone firm yet gentle.
"Ling'er, it was my fault for not noticing how Ming'er treated you."
"Don't worry. With Grandpa here, this kind of thing will never happen again."
"If there are any problems between you two, we can discuss them properly."
"Divorce is a serious matter. You shouldn't bring it up so easily in the future."
His meaning was clear.
He wanted to reconcile them.
With such a gentle attitude, anyone else would have probably agreed.
But Gu Ling?
That was impossible.
Without a moment of hesitation, she flatly refused.
"We can talk about other matters."
"But not this."
"I have already decided—
I want a divorce!"
