Chapter 130: Renegotiation of the Agreement
Chapter 130: Renegotiation of the Agreement
Today, in the hall of the divorce registration office, people lined up silently, waiting to go through the divorce procedures.
When Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue arrived here, the line was not long and it was soon their turn.
A hint of regret flashed through the staff member's eyes. He picked up their divorce agreement and said softly, "Since you've already signed it, let me simply read over the key parts."
Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue listened silently. When their eyes met, they revealed complex emotions, including helplessness, pain, and a hint of relief.
The staff continued to read the agreement, and every word was like a sharp sword, piercing Xiao Tuobang and Qiu Xue's hearts.
Their previous vows and sweet memories all turned into nothing at this moment.
The staff picked out the key points in the agreement word by word and read them very carefully.
Finally, he read the last paragraph: "95% of the company shares and joint property jointly held by the couple will belong to Miss Qiuxue, and the villa and two luxury cars will belong to Mr. Xiao Tuobang. With that said, Mr. Xiao Tuobang, Miss Qiuxue, do you have anything else to add?"
As soon as the staff member finished speaking, Xiao Tuobang's expression was unusually calm. He said calmly, "I have nothing else to add."
After hearing the agreement, Qiu Xue looked up in surprise and looked at Xiao Tuobang, her eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.
She never thought that Xiao Tuobang would choose to leave the house with nothing.
Qiu Xue is a carefree person and she has always trusted Lawyer Ma very much.
She just wanted to end the marriage as soon as possible and did not ask too many questions about the specific content of the agreement.
She had never even glanced at the agreement that Lawyer Ma handed her. She had never expected that Xiao Tuobang would almost leave the house with nothing.
Only at this moment did she realize how unfair this agreement was to Xiao Tuobang.
Qiu Xueran felt that she was a little selfish.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
She said slowly, "Comrade, I'm sorry, but I think this agreement needs to be revised."
The staff nodded and returned the divorce agreement to the two.
Qiu Xue held the divorce agreement tightly, as if the thin paper weighed a thousand pounds.
She walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau in a hurry.
Qiu Xue was extremely anxious and couldn't wait to find Lawyer Ma to find out what was going on.
Seeing this, Xiao Tuobang chased after him angrily.
He held Qiuxue's hand tightly and asked loudly, "Qiuxue, where are you going?"
Qiu Xue frowned. She shook off Xiao Tuobang's hand and replied indifferently, "Go find my lawyer. There are some problems with this agreement. I want him to rewrite it."
Xiao Tuobang sneered and said sarcastically, "Oh, I see. You're dissatisfied that the villa and the two luxury cars are not yours, right? Miss Qiu, don't worry. I will have my lawyer return everything that belongs to you."
After saying that, Xiao Tuobang turned around, got into the car, and drove away.
Qiu Xue looked at the car driving away. Xiao Tuobang's misunderstanding of her deepened. She felt very painful and disappointed.
Qiuxue's belly moved violently. The baby might be hungry and kicked her belly in protest. Qiuxue touched her belly and walked towards a nearby restaurant.
……
Qiuxue and Sister Zhen moved back to her parents' home, and no one took care of the flowers and plants in the yard.
On this day, Xiao Tuobang happened to be on vacation at home.
In the early morning, the sunlight shines through the thin clouds and falls on the earth like a layer of golden gauze.
Xiao Tuobang got up early, holding a pair of sharp scissors in his hand, and strode towards the yard.
As soon as he entered the yard, he began to kill the flowers and plants that he didn't like. The sound of snapping was endless, and in a short while, all the flowers and plants were cut off.
All of these flowers and plants were Qiu Xue's favorites. If Qiu Xue were present at this moment, seeing her beloved treasures being destroyed like this, she would definitely be heartbroken and unable to breathe.
After cutting the flowers and plants, Xiao Tuobang held the water pipe and prepared to water the remaining flower pots. Suddenly, a crisp doorbell broke the tranquility in the yard.
There were no workers in the house, so he had to do everything himself.
Xiao Tuobang quickly put down the water pipe in his hand and ran hurriedly towards the gate of the yard.
When I opened the gate, I saw Lawyer Sun standing outside.
Xiao Tuobang hurriedly welcomed Lawyer Sun into the living room, asked him to sit down, and asked directly, "Uncle Sun, is everything done?"
Lawyer Sun smiled excitedly and replied, "Tuobang, everything has been settled! I came all the way here just to tell you this great news!"
After hearing this, Xiao Tuobang just snorted softly and said in a cold tone: "I have long expected that Qiu Xue is a greedy person."
Lawyer Sun's smile gradually disappeared, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He said softly, "Tuobang, the eldest lady is not the person you imagined."
Lawyer Sun has watched Qiu Xue grow up since she was a child, so he naturally has feelings for her, but he is now Xiao Tuobang's attorney, and Xiao Tuobang is very dissatisfied with Lawyer Sun standing on Qiu Xue's side.
Xiao Tuobang's face turned gloomy, and sparks of anger flashed in his eyes.
He clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Uncle Sun, don't forget, you are my attorney now."
Lawyer Sun sighed helplessly. He knew that Xiao Tuobang had a deep prejudice against Qiu Xue.
He tried to calm Xiao Tuobang's anger and said softly: "Tuobang, I know you have a misunderstanding about the young lady, but..."
"Misunderstanding?" Xiao Tuobang interrupted Lawyer Sun, his voice tinged with sarcasm. "She's greedy and only cares about money. This isn't a misunderstanding; it's a fact."
Lawyer Sun's face turned a little embarrassed. He knew that Xiao Tuobang's opinion of Qiu Xue was deeply rooted and difficult to change.
He shook his head helplessly and said softly: "Tuobang, you are too prejudiced against the eldest lady. She is not what you think."
Xiao Tuobang sneered, "If Qiuxue isn't greedy, why would she ask for a new agreement? She wants to take back the villa and the luxury car and keep them for herself."
Lawyer Sun shook his head and said, "Tuobang, you've really wronged the young lady this time. Not only did she not ask for the villa and luxury car back, but she transferred 55% of your jointly held shares and property to you."
Xiao Tuobang was stunned for a moment, unwilling to believe it and stammered, "Uncle Sun, are you telling the truth?"
Lawyer Sun nodded, his eyes full of sincerity. "Of course it's true. The eldest lady personally supervised me and Lawyer Ma in drafting the agreement. She said that you have worked day and night for the company over the past few years, and this is what you deserve."
Xiao Tuobang's expression instantly became complicated, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He never expected that Qiu Xue would make such a decision.
He took the divorce agreement handed to him by Lawyer Sun, and his hands trembled slightly involuntarily, as if every page of the paper carried the complex emotions in his heart.
He carefully read every clause in the agreement. It was written in black and white that Qiu Xue would transfer most of her property to him, which made Xiao Tuobang feel extremely guilty and self-blame.
A glint of tears flashed in Xiao Tuobang's eyes. He silently put the agreement on the table, and his mood could not calm down for a long time.
Lawyer Sun looked at him and said softly, "Tuobang, the eldest lady is a kind person. Her decision was made after careful consideration. I hope you can understand her intentions."
Xiao Tuobang was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head, "I understand, Uncle Sun. I wronged her." There was a hint of regret in his voice.
Lawyer Sun nodded. "It's not too late to understand now. What are you going to do?"
Xiao Tuobang took a deep breath and said, "Master Sun Jian, I do not agree with this divorce agreement. I don't need Qiuxue's charity. I insist on using the first agreement. Please go and negotiate with Qiuxue again."
After saying that, Xiao Tuobang stood up and walked towards the door.
