Xu Weilai took the divorce agreement and looked down to read it. The contents were exactly as she had instructed. and Gu Yu had already signed his signature.
She had seen his signature on the company documents he had signed before, and it was the same as this.
In his heart, this marriage might not even be as important as one of his company’s projects. It was just… a dispensable deal.
From the moment Gu Yu proposed the divorce until now, she felt a somewhat anguished, but perhaps… it was too unreal. She kept feeling that it wasn’t real.
It was just like those three years when she was abroad. Even if she had nightmares, when she woke up, she would know that it was just a dream. There was nothing to be afraid of.
But at this moment, it seemed that only now did she realize that… it wasn’t a dream.
Xu Weilai suddenly closed the divorce agreement. She lowered her head and didn’t raise it again. She only said in a sullen voice, “Go in.”
After saying that, she took the lead and walked in.
Gu Yu’s gaze fell on her stiff back. He lowered his eyes slightly and then walked in as well.
They didn’t know since when, but there were actually more people getting divorced than getting married. They also waited in line for a while before it was their turn.
The other divorced people either complained to each other or swore at each other. They bickered until their faces were livid with anger. In contrast, they appeared so calm that they didn’t fit in with the vibe there.
Gu Yu and Xu Weilai sat quietly in front of the staff and began to go through the divorce procedures.
When they got married, it was very simple. It was the same when they got divorced. After all, they didn’t need to fight for property and they didn’t have any children. As long as both parties nodded their heads in agreement, the marriage could be declared over.
A red book for a red book, but the word “Marriage” was switched with the word “Divorce” .
The difference of one word meant a relationship was dead.
When they got married and Xu Weilai got the marriage certificate. It didn’t feel real. Now, when she got the divorce certificate, she was in a daze for more than ten seconds.
Gu Yu got up first and said to her, “Let’s go.”
Xu Weilai looked up in a daze. She wanted to see even a trace of emotion in his eyes, but it was futile. He was always aloof, or rather, indifferent.
Xu Weilai haphazardly stuffed the divorce certificate into her bag. She suddenly stood up and strode out.
The weather had been extremely gloomy just now. It was indeed raining outside, and it wasn’t a light rain. Raindrops fell on the ground, and the sound of thunder kept sounding. The gloomy sky was occasionally lit up by frightening lightning.
Xu Weilai’s footsteps were blocked by the heavy rain at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Soon, Gu Yu also walked out.
He glanced sideways at her and said, “Get in the car. I’ll send you back to your apartment first.”
Xu Weilai turned a deaf ear to him. She took out her phone and opened the ride-hailing app. However, it was raining and the road was blocked, so it was difficult to call a ride. Even if she kept increasing the toll, there was no car to pick up the bill for the time being.
Assistant Lin had already driven the car to the door and was waiting. Through the car window, he looked at President Gu and Young Mistress standing at the door… No, he should be called Miss Xu again now.
He couldn’t help but lament inside.
He thought about it for a moment, then pushed open the car door, got out, and went around to the trunk. He took out a long umbrella that he had prepared from the inside, held it up, and ran to the door. He said to Gu Yu and Xu Weilai, “President Gu, Miss… Miss Xu, it’s going to rain for most of the day, and it’s going to get heavier and heavier. We better leave quickly. It’ll be more difficult to leave when the traffic jam gets worse.”
Xu Weilai didn’t say anything.
Gu Yu raised his chin and instructed, “Send her back.”
