Chapter 1249 - Let's Get Divorce
The next day, Lu Lian went to the office and started her busy day in absence of President Ming Rusheng, which she had been doing since his accident.
"Ms. Lu, you have an appointment with the project manager from Wu industries," the assistant informed.
Lu Lian nodded and the assistant instructed, "I will send them inside."
After a while, the assistant opened the door and a woman in a light lavender color stylish business suit entered Lu Lian's office. Lu Lian looked at the woman and she was surprised for a moment.
"Are you surprised to see me, Lu Lian?" the delicate and pretty-looking woman asked, smiling brightly at Lu Lian.
Lu Lian didn't smile back like her but only pulled up the corners of her lips lightly as this woman was there for a business. Lu Lian nodded, "I didn't expect to see you here, Ms. Wu."
The woman walked towards Lu Lian's work table, "Ms. Wu, huh? Did you forget my name already?"
Lu Lian looked at her assistant who sensed the tense atmosphere. "You can leave."
The assistant left and closed the door. Lu Lian looked at her, "Wu Suyin, this is my workplace so I would like us to be professional. You can call me Ms. Lu."
"Well...Fine!," Wu Suyin agreed, "I too don't wish to affect our work because of our past not-so-good relationship."
"We were young at that time and now we are mature ones. It's better to let those things in the past," Lu Lian countered.
"You don't like that old almighty daughter of the Lu family."
"Because I have created my own identity."
"Well, then I don't have to be worried about offending the daughter of the Lu family then."
Lu Lian shot her a glare full of warning, "As long as you are within your limits, it's all good."
"Let's see," the woman smiled as Lu Lian's glare didn't affect her.
"Shall we start work?" Lu Lian asked and the woman nodded as she passed the file to her.
Lu Lian accepted it and went through it. The two talked seriously about the project for a while and Lu Lian said, "I will let you know in two days. President Ming is not well so it will take time."
"Ah, I forgot to ask how is brother Rusheng? I heard he had lost his memories," the woman asked, showing her worry.
"He is fine now," Lu Lian replied, not adding much to it.
"I haven't seen him for a long time. I am sure he must look even more handsome than ever," Wu Suyin said.
"I think we are done for the day. I have next appointments," Lu Lian replied.
Wu Suyin stared at her for a moment, "Lu Lian, I want to see you how you were during our university days. Why are you suddenly acting like a good girl?"
"I told you it's my workplace, Ms. Wu," Lu Lian said as she coldly looked at the woman in front of her.
The woman nodded, "Very well. I hope next time I can have a meeting with brother Rusheng instead of….."
"President Ming," Lu Lian corrected her, "Here in the office, we all call him as Mr. Ming or President Ming. Get the habit of saying it as your company is our project partner and you will be working with us as a project manager."
Lu Lian's coldness didn't affect her and instead, she smiled, "I will keep in mind, Ms. Lu."
"See you soon, Ms. Wu," Lu Lian said as she stood up to shake hands with Wu Suyin.
"Good to see you again Ms. Lu. I hope with you around, I won't feel bored."
"Goodbye," Lu Lian said calmly and Wu Suyin left. Lu Lian sat in her chair and frowned, "Out of so many people why this woman? I am not in a mood to play around with her."

The next morning, Jiang Yuyan had breakfast with the family and returned to her room so that she could leave for the office in some time. She was not aware that someone had already sneaked into her room and was waiting for her. Just as she entered the room and closed the door, she heard the familiar voice.
"Good Morning, Wifey!"
In shock, Jiang Yuyan turned to look at the door and saw Lu Lijun standing leaning back at the wall next to the door as his one leg folded in the knee and rested at the wall while his hands were tucked in his pocket.
He stared into her shocked eyes and she asked, "W-When did you return?" He was not at the breakfast table and neither anyone talked about that he had returned.
"What's with the question? Shouldn't you hug me and say that you missed me," Lu Lijun said as he walked towards her.
Jiang Yuyan glared at her, "I didn't have time for the useless things. And you should better stop coming to my room without my permission."
Lu Lijun didn't mind her angry reaction and instead said calmly, "Seems like my wife is upset as I kept her waiting for a long time." He raised his hand to caress her cheek.
She immediately shrugged his hand even before it could reach her cheek, "Stop this nonsense," and turned towards her bedside table where she had kept her cellphone.
Lu Lijun followed her and sat at the edge of the bed, "How is missing my wife nonsense. I see more sense in doing it."
After thinking about how to keep him away, Jiang Yuyan already couldn't sleep the entire night and she was already pissed with everything and this guy was adding to everything by acting like this. Normally she would have asked when did he return and how was the work but now she was not in a mood seeing him in her room like this and talking nonsense again.
Her already angered mind lost its control and she glared at him. "How many times should I tell you don't call me your wife. That marriage is not even valid because you were a kid, Lijun'' Yuyan shouted, looking at the stubborn man sitting on her bed.
"But for me we are married and we have to be together unless we get a divorce," Lijun replied calmly, making himself comfortable on the bed.
Yuyan pressed her temples in frustration, "Let's get a divorce then. Bring me the papers, I will sign."
"Are you sure?" Lijun asked, as his eyes brightened up.
"Yes. Let's get divorced and don't come after me ever," she warned.
He stood up from the bed and held her hand, "Fine then, let's go."
"Where?" she asked, trying to get her hand out of his hold.
"To the marriage bureau."
"Huh?"
"To file a divorce, we need to register our marriage legally, and only then it's possible," An evil smirk painted on his lips, as he dragged her with him out of the room.
"Stop! Stop!" she exclaimed.
"Lu Lijun stopped but didn't let go of her hand. He looked at her, "Why? Don't want to give me a divorce now? Are you reluctant to part away from such a lovely and handsome husband?"
