Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 1037: Chapter 1036: Breaking Off the Engagement

Song Jie cleared his throat and then said, “Shen Yue, having spent some time together recently, I’ve realized we are not very suitable for each other. How about we cancel our engagement and return to being friends?”

The fork in Shen Yue’s hand clinked as it fell onto the plate.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she repeated, “Cancel the engagement?”

Song Jie nodded.

“I don’t agree, did I do something wrong?” Shen Yue asked, her eyes slightly red.

“No, you are good, it’s just that I feel you are not suitable for me,” Song Jie honestly replied.

“We’ve never really spent time together, and if there’s something bad about me, I can change,” Shen Yue pleaded humbly, even somewhat pitifully looking at him.

“No, Shen Yue, it’s not about being able to change or not, but that we just don’t match, our personalities don’t align,” Song Jie firmly squashed her hopes.@@novelbin@@

“Did you ask me out tonight just to say this?” Shen Yue suddenly became very calm, not crying or making a scene, just gazing directly at Song Jie.

“Um, yes, my main intention was to make this clear to you. You can declare it was you who wanted to end it, and I will accept whatever reason you mention,” Song Jie said, now unreserved in his approach.

Madame Song was also aware of the Shen Family’s situation, and she had her reservations; this time, his proposal to break off the engagement was tacitly approved by her.

Because having such in-laws would be detrimental to them.

Her son, being so outstanding, could find someone better, and although Shen Yue was not bad, it was a pity…

“Madame Song agrees too?” Shen Yue asked, full of hope, wanting to hear a negative response.

“Yes, she also implicitly agreed,” Song Jie’s words crushed the last straw in Shen Yue’s heart.

“What if I don’t agree?” Shen Yue asked softly, then looked straight into Song Jie’s eyes.

“Shen Yue, I hope we can part on good terms,” Song Jie said calmly.

“Hah, part on good terms? Are you okay? I’m not okay at all; I was discarded out of the blue, without a single warning,” Shen Yue scoffed coldly, her heart now utterly desolate.

“I will compensate you,” Song Jie promised.

“My dream was to marry you and become your bride, how can you compensate me for that?” Shen Yue retorted, “Song Jie, may I ask you something?”

“Go ahead.”

“What kind of girl do you like?” Shen Yue needed to completely give up.

“Kind, vibrant girls.” As he spoke, Song Jie envisioned Gu Huanhuan.

“Am I not kind? Do I lack vitality?” Shen Yue scoffed.

“Shen Yue, you are a good woman. Don’t dwell on these things, I wish you find your happiness soon,” Song Jie said sincerely.

“I don’t care.” Shen Yue picked up her purse and stormed off.

Song Jie watched her retreating figure and sighed.

…

Shen Yue returned home and slammed her handbag onto the bed, making a loud noise.

This alarmed her neighbor, Shen Hui.

“What’s the matter? Did you eat gunpowder? Why are you so angry?” Shen Hui asked, puzzled.

Shen Yue grabbed a pillow from the bed and threw it hard at the doorway.

“Are you crazy?” Shen Hui yelled.

“I am crazy, and if it wasn’t for the mess you created, would the Song Family have called off the engagement?” Shen Yue shouted back at him.

“Oh, so the Song family cancelled the engagement. Song Jie, that villain, must have seen our family’s decline, so he withdrew that quickly,” Shen Hui’s gaze turned cold.

“Isn’t it because of your doings?” Shen Yue said through clenched teeth.
