Marquis Ling was feeling worried seeing Ling Luo act like that. Was his son alright?
If Ning Meng Yao was still not married, they could still strive for it. But right now, she was the Great General's wife.
"So what if she's already married? Married couples can still divorce," Ling Luo said without any care.
Ling Luo turned and left before Marquis Ling could say anything. He was unwilling to continue talking with him.
After returning to the courtyard, he saw Xiao Zi Xuan. There was a flicker in Ling Luo's gaze, he then said coldly: "I'll grant you freedom, leave Ling Residence immediately."
The smile on Xiao Zi Xuan's face instantly became stiff, she looked at Ling Luo in disbelief: "What did you say? Ling Luo, what do you mean?" He had previously stopped saying such words, why did he suddenly bring it up right now?
"Have you gone mad?"
Ling Luo narrowed his eyes, he was unwilling to be bothered with Xiao Zi Xuan: "We're getting a divorce. If you have anything you want, name it."
Xiao Zi Xuan felt her heart being unusually desolate seeing Ling Luo acting that way, she opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief: "Ling Luo, do you know what you're saying?"
Ling Luo did not speak, he quietly looked at Xiao Zi Xuan.
Xiao Zi Xuan laughed at herself: "I knew it, I thought we could return to like in the past and be together, but you've changed, for the sake of power, you can give up on anything, just like how you gave up on Ning Meng Yao last time."
Ling Luo's expression changed when she brought up Ning Meng Yao, he glared at Xiao Zi Xuan: "Shut up."
Xiao Zi Xuan laughed: "Why should I? Have I struck your sore spot? You wish to divorce me, alright, on what basis are you divorcing me? Have I done anything that's wicked beyond redemption?"
She had not broken any of the seven codes[1], so based on what would he use to divorce her?
Ling Luo looked at Xiao Zi Xuan, the corner of his mouth curl up: "Because I want to. Is there any need for a reason?"
"Haha, Ling Luo, do you think Ning Meng Yao would return to your side after doing this? Stop dreaming," What he was doing was for the sake of Ning Meng Yao returning to his side.
But come to think of it, who was Ning Meng Yao? She was currently not an orphan who had no one to rely on, she was the Regent's long lost daughter, how precious was she to him? As for Ling Luo, who is he? Just because he wanted Ning Meng Yao to return by his side, would she comply to it?"
"This has nothing to do with you."
Xiao Zi Xuan laughed, she looked at Ling Luo in a mocking manner: "This indeed has nothing to do with me, but Ling Luo, you're giving a mother and child just to get her? Don't even think about it, if you wish to divorce me, first ask whether or not my father agrees to it."
When she brought up Duke Xiao, Ling Luo furrowed his brows tightly, there was impatience when he looked at Xiao Zi Xuan: "You wish to complicate this?"
"Complicate? Who was the one who paid a visit and proposed at that time? After obtaining what you wanted, seeing that I'm no longer of use, you wish to kick me away? Ling Luo, who do think I am?" Xiao Zi Xuan looked at Ling Luo with hatred, if she was not tricked by this person, how would her life end up like this right now?
Ling Luo was feeling impatient, but he was slightly fearful towards Xiao Residence. He frowned and pondered, in the end, he decided to find Ning Meng Yao, as long as she agrees to suppress Xiao Residence together, it would not be a problem if he wished to divorce Xiao Zi Xuan.
However, it was a brilliant yet unrealistic idea.
Seeing Ling Luo leave in a hurry, Xiao Zi Xuan had a bitter smile on her face, she returned to her room and looked at her child's tender face.
Her hand gently touched the child's cheek, Xiao Zi Xuan's expression was solemn: "No matter what, Mother will not allow others to snatch away what is yours."
Ling Luo headed to the Great General's Residence after leaving Xiao Zi Xuan's place, he wanted to find Ning Meng Yao.
He did not believe their relationship of two lifetimes cannot be compared to her relationship with Qiao Tian Chang of a mere one or two years.
She only did so because she wanted him to regret.
Yes, it must be so.
Ling Luo kept consoling himself inside. When he arrived at the General's Residence, he walked over: "I want to meet your madam."
The gatekeeper looked at Ling Luo: "Please hold on, I'll pass your request."
