Forcing His Wife to Suicide

hat she had been affected by the perfumeSeeing Lan An looking at her in an analytical manner, seemingly pondering over something, Yan Luoxi gritted her teeth and decided to come out straight with him:...Chapter 23: Forced to Drive His Wife to Desperation

Zhou Guangtao listened to Yan Luoxi's concerned inquiries, looking into her sincere eyes. This time, it was him who wished he could disappear into the ground; he felt ashamed and couldn’t bear the clear concern in her gaze. In a moment of impulse, he almost confessed his mistake, "Luoxi, last night, I was wrong…"

At this moment, Yan Luoxi's phone began to ring desperately. Seeing it was Sun Zhijun’s number, she quickly answered.

Sun Zhijun’s usually calm voice came through with a hint of urgency, "Luoxi, come to my company right away! Your mother is going to jump off the building!"

Yan Luoxi's mind seemed struck by a sudden clap of thunder; her face turned pale in an instant.

"What’s wrong" Zhou Guangtao asked with concern.

"My mother is going to jump off the building," Yan Luoxi replied dumbly, still holding the phone.

"Where is she now We’ll go right away." At this moment, Zhou Guangtao was much calmer than Yan Luoxi. He held her cold hand with his other hand and pressed the elevator button to head down.

Yan Luoxi was in a panic; she followed Zhou Guangtao's instructions without question. As he drove, Zhou Guangtao asked about what had happened between Xue Liping and Sun Zhijun.

Hearing Yan Luoxi’s trembling narration, he looked at her, noticing that she seemed thinner than before, with pale skin showing signs of fatigue and weariness. He held her hand, silently saying sorry.

The two companies were not too far apart; it took less than ten minutes for them to arrive at Sun Zhijun's company.

Sun Zhijun’s presidential suite occupied an entire floor, luxuriously decorated with excellent soundproofing. As a result, only he and his closest assistants knew about the commotion caused by his young girlfriend arguing loudly yesterday and his elderly mother attempting suicide today; no one else in the company noticed.

When Yan Luoxi and Zhou Guangtao arrived at Sun Zhijun's office, they saw Xue Liping standing in front of the open glass window with a look of determination. The wind blew her stray hair across her face.

If she took one small step forward at this moment, she would fall from the twenty-second floor below and die a bloody death.

Sun Zhijun and his assistant stood guard five steps away from Xue Liping. Cold sweat dripped down Sun Zhijun's forehead as he looked pale as paper, constantly persuading her in vain. When Yan Luoxi and Zhou Guangtao finally arrived, he heaved a sigh of relief.

With the blue sky, white clouds, bright sunlight, and Xue Liping on the verge of jumping off a building, Yan Luoxi felt disoriented and closed her eyes.

When she opened them again, she was dizzy from the sight of her mother hovering high above, teetering on the edge. Trembling with tears in her voice, she asked, “Mom, what are you doing”

Xue Liping's originally indifferent expression softened when she saw her daughter arrive; hearing her call out "Mom," her eyes welled up with tears as she spoke brokenheartedly, "Luoxi, Mom is sorry. I left you so young for this man, and now he has abandoned me. This must be my punishment. What's the point of someone like me living on It would be better to die!"

Sun Zhijun’s face turned red and then pale in turn as he said apologetically, "Sorry, Liping, it’s all my fault. Let’s talk this out calmly downstairs!" He attempted to comfort Xue Liping and took a step forward.

"Don’t come closer!" Xue Liping's expression changed abruptly; she leaned against the window frame and shouted hoarsely: "If you take one more step, I'll jump down right now! Let everyone know that Sun Trading Company’s boss has a new lover who forced his wife to suicide!"

Sun Zhijun's face turned redder, and he clenched his fists tightly before sighing deeply, "Liping!"

"Mom, hurry up and come down! Don't be foolish!" Yan Luoxi looked at her mother as tears streamed down her face.

"Auntie, please calm down!" Zhou Guangtao took a few steps forward slowly.

Xue Liping was very resolute; no matter what anyone said, she had only one thing to say: "Sun Zhijun, if you want a divorce, then unless I die!"

"I don't dare to divorce you. It's all my fault, please come over quickly!" Sun Zhijun hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"I won't believe your lies, you're just trying to placate me!

Zhou Guangtao looked at Xue Liping, who was determined and unyielding. He felt a mixture of anger and frustration; taking a deep breath, he said: "Auntie, think about it, if you jump off the building, who will be the most heartbroken When you left Luoxi years ago, you made her lose her mother once. Now, are you going to leave her again, making her lose her mother for the second time and break her heart all over again

Auntie, jumping off this building means everything is over for you, but have you thought about how Luoxi feels Aren't you being a little too selfish as a mother"

Xue Liping was stunned by Zhou Guangtao's powerful words. Looking at her crying daughter with tears streaming down her face, she felt heart-wrenching pain. Seizing the moment when Xue Liping was distracted, Zhou Guangtao agilely rushed forward and pushed her away from the window.

After a moment of shock, Yan Luoxi hugged her mother and burst into uncontrollable tears; Xue Liping's heart hurt as well, so she also began to cry.

They cried for a long time, and finally stopped after being persuaded by Zhou Guangtao and Sun Zhijun.

Sun Zhijun signaled with his eyes, wanting to talk to Yan Luoxi.

Yan Luoxi handed Xu Liping over to Zhou Guangtao. Xu Liping had become numb after her initial excitement; she slumped into a chair without caring about her posture, staring blankly ahead.

In the adjacent reception room, Sun Zhijun wiped his sweat and asked Yan Luoxi to sit down. Apologetically, he said, "Luoxi, I'm very sorry for what happened between your mother and me back then."

Yan Luoxi didn't know what else he was going to say but nodded politely anyway.

Sun Zhijun pursed his lips and said bluntly, "Luoxi, I'm sure you're aware of the situation between your mother and me now. Regardless of how I felt last night, given what she did today at the company, I have to divorce her."

If her mother hadn't acted this way today, Yan Luoxi would have countless biting remarks for Sun Zhijun. But seeing her mother's behavior in front of everyone, it was hard not to understand his decision even if he still had feelings for her.

Yan Luoxi sat there blankly, looking bewildered as she thought about how to deal with the situation where her father insisted on divorcing her mother while her mother refused to divorce him.

Sun Zhijun glanced at Yan Luoxi. His tone was full of vigor as he said, "Luoxi, try to calm your mother down first and watch over her. Can you also help me persuade her"

"Okay," Yan Luoxi agreed without hesitation. Her mother had already made enough of a scene; she couldn't afford to act spoiled here too.onan, how can you have no principles…"Li Haonan stood quietly to the side and listened to his little wife’s scolding.
