Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 301 The Temptation She Couldn't Resist

In the quiet house, the sound was like a muffled thunderclap.

Even though Lu Tingnian had prepared himself mentally, he was still taken aback by the loud noise.

"why?"

He suppressed the turmoil in his heart and asked the question.

Joe calmly replied, "We're not a good match."

Lu Tingnian frowned.

"What's wrong with it?"

"Nowhere is suitable."

"But I don't think so."

That's you, not me.

Qiao Luo's attitude was very firm.

Lu Tingnian suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Qiao Luo, I know I made a huge mistake in this matter, but marriage is not a game, and you can't just get a divorce like that. I hope you can think it over carefully."

After a long silence, he finally spoke in a deep voice.

Qiao Luo did not answer immediately.

On her way back, she thought a lot. Since this marriage was full of deception from the beginning, there was no need to continue it.

In any case, their marriage was also because of her debt to Lu Tingnian.

Since that reason no longer exists, there is no need to continue it.

Thinking this through, she said, "This is the result of my careful consideration."

Lu Tingnian stared intently at her. "I won't accept it."

His eyes were filled with complex emotions—regret, remorse, yet also an unusually firm and persistent determination.

Qiao Luo didn't look at him. She didn't want to look at Lu Tingnian right now, or rather, she was afraid that if she saw his eyes, she would be unable to help but waver.

Because she knew he had a pair of deep, affectionate eyes, and every time she looked into his eyes, her heart would flutter uncontrollably.

This was a temptation she couldn't resist.

“I don’t need your acceptance. If you don’t agree, we’ll take legal action.”

She simply stood up and turned her back to him.

Lu Tingnian did not expect her to be so determined, even resorting to legal procedures.

Did she really think of divorcing him?

Was their relationship all fake all this time?

Or was it all just wishful thinking on his part from beginning to end?

"Okay, if this is your final decision, I respect it. But as you know, divorce requires a one-month cooling-off period. I hope you can reconsider during this month. If you still insist on divorce after a month, I will grant your wish."

Lu Tingnian also gave his own statement.

Rather than taking her to court and ruining their relationship, it's better for him to back down now. Perhaps things will turn around within the next month.

Qiao Luo was naturally unaware of Lu Tingnian's thoughts; she assumed he had agreed.

For some reason, even though it was she who suggested it, she felt really bad after he agreed.

"Okay, I'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to queue up tomorrow."

"No need, I'll have Han Jian handle it."

Hearing him say that, Qiao Luo didn't object.

"By the way, when are you planning to move out?"

Qiao Luo suddenly remembered and asked.

Lu Tingnian: "That's hard to say."

"Why?" Qiao Luo didn't understand.

Lu Tingnian remained calm and said, "My house is under renovation and cannot be lived in."

Qiao Luo found this reason laughable.

He's so rich, how could he only own one house?

She said, "You can stay in a hotel."

"I'm not used to the constant flow of people in the hotel."

Lu Tingnian responded calmly.

Qiao Luo was speechless again. What kind of ridiculous reasons were these?

He's clearly just trying to cheat her.

"Okay, in that case, I'll move out."

Lu Tingnian was taken aback: "Where are you moving to?"

"You don't need to worry about this anymore."

After Qiao Luo finished speaking, she turned to leave, but Lu Tingnian stopped her.

"Don't do this, this is your home."

Qiao Luo turned to him and gave him a look that said, "So you knew too."

Left with no other choice, Lu Tingnian had to compromise.

Although he was extremely reluctant to leave, he figured it was better for him to leave on his own than for Qiao Luo to leave.

"However, let's make it clear first, it's too late today, we'll move it tomorrow."

After reaching an agreement, Lu Tingnian made another suggestion.

Qiao Luo did not object.

After all, it was only one night, so he couldn't possibly come up with any tricks.

However, even so, she still had to be on guard.

After much thought, I still feel that we should sleep in separate rooms at night.

So, while Lu Tingnian was taking a shower, she went back to the bedroom, intending to take the opportunity to move her things to the study. However, she didn't expect that Lu Tingnian would come out from inside when she had only packed half of it.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing her hurried figure, Lu Tingnian asked with some confusion.

Qiao Luo didn't look at him. Instead, she tidied up the things on the dressing table and replied, "Pack your things."

Lu Tingnian was taken aback: "Didn't we agree that I would move out?"

Qiao Luo: "I'll sleep in the study tonight."

Lu Tingnian then realized that she wanted to sleep in a separate room from him.

He thought to himself: Surely not?

After all, it's only for one night.

Besides, he had already thought it through. Before they parted ways tonight, he wanted to do something that might improve their relationship.

After all, couples shouldn't hold grudges overnight; they'll make up before they get out of bed.

But now it seems impossible.

"Can we not have separate rooms?"

Even though he felt there was no hope, he still wanted to try one last time.
