Chapter 342 Is it because I was deceived in the past?
She controlled the force perfectly, and the object landed right in front of Lu Tingnian, but he didn't open it; instead, he chose to put it aside.
"No need to look anymore. I will agree to any solution you propose unconditionally."
His answer was so crisp and decisive, but Qiao Luo felt humiliated.
After all, it was something she had painstakingly written, yet he didn't even glance at it and still agreed to everything unconditionally.
Was he giving her preferential treatment?
"Lu Tingnian, can you be a little more professional?" Qiao Luo gritted her teeth.
Lu Tingnian shrugged. "I'm already very professional. If it were before, you wouldn't have needed to come here in person."
He was telling the truth, but his words only made Qiao Luo angrier.
Is this emphasizing that she has always used connections to get ahead?
Qiao Luo clenched her fists tightly.
"Fine, since that's the case, we have nothing more to discuss. Since you don't respect our hard work, there's no need to continue cooperating. I'll go back and inform the legal department to terminate the contract."
As she spoke, she got up to leave, but Lu Tingnian quickly ran forward and stopped her.
"Angry?"
Qiao Luo didn't answer him, but turned her face away when he looked over.
Lu Tingnian could tell that he was deliberately provoking Qiao Luo.
He could tell that she was feeling quite aggrieved, and if he didn't let her vent her anger, she would suffer internal injuries from holding it in.
He was willing to be the target of her venting.
Seeing that she was angry, he still couldn't bear it and couldn't help but step forward to comfort her, saying, "Okay, don't be angry. I admit that I was wrong. I was too unprofessional. Please give our company another chance. I will have someone carefully review the proposal you wrote right away before we talk about cooperation. Is that okay?"
His tone was gentle, and it was ingratiating.
Qiao Luo wanted to get angry, but she had already lost her temper.
"Alright, since you put it that way, I'll give your company another chance. I hope you'll take it seriously."
The collaboration wasn't just her business, and even if she was angry, she couldn't mix public and private matters. With that in mind, she handed over the documents in her hand.
Lu Tingnian took the document and then instructed someone to come and retrieve it. After the person took the document away, he said to Qiao Luo, "Since you were able to give our company a chance to make amends, could you also give me one? I promise that I will make serious changes from now on."
He looked very serious.
Qiao Luo then realized that he had been waiting for her there.
"One yard owned by a yard."
She turned away, not wanting to pay him any attention.
Seeing this, Lu Tingnian quickly followed her, "Wife, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me, okay? I promise I will never do it again."
Lu Tingnian raised his hand in assurance.
Qiao Luo didn't speak, she just stared at her coldly. In her opinion, even if Lu Tingnian apologized verbally, he still didn't realize that his actions had hurt her.
This is perhaps the fundamental problem between her and him.
So she said to Lu Tingnian, "Some things, once done wrong, can't be undone, do you understand?"
Lu Tingnian stared at her: "I understand, but I..."
“Lu Tingnian, since you’ve brought this up, let’s just talk about it today.”
Before he could finish speaking, Qiao Luo interrupted him.
Lu Tingnian had no choice but to swallow his words.
"it is good."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Luo nodded and then sat down in her seat.
Seeing this, Lu Tingnian also sat down.
Qiao Luo then spoke up: "I've already consulted a lawyer. During the cooling-off period, we both need to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to submit the materials. Now that you're back from your business trip, let's schedule a time to get this done."
Anyway, it's been dragging on for several days already.
Lu Tingnian was taken aback by what she was about to say, and paused for a moment before saying, "Can't we just not get a divorce?"
"No." Qiao Luo's attitude was very firm.
Although Lu Tingnian had already expected it, he still felt somewhat disappointed when she brought it up again.
However, he did not refuse. Instead, he remained silent for a while before saying, "Before that, can you answer one question for me?"
Qiao Luo: "Of course, as long as I can answer it."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tingnian nodded, then asked her, "Why do you hate being deceived so much? Is it because you've been deceived before?"
This is a question he has always wanted to know.
He wanted to know why she was so persistent.
He simply couldn't understand how an adult living in this vast world could be so intolerant of being deceived.
Although deception is wrong and should not exist, in this complex world, no one can never lie, never deceive others, and no one can live a life without being deceived.
Therefore, he guessed that she must have some unresolved issues regarding this matter.
Sure enough, Qiao Luo fell silent after he asked the question.
