Kong Siyu glanced at his mother, then bowed to Song Yaoyao and said:
"Miss, I want my mother to get a divorce. My sister and I will stay with her from now on.
My sister and I want to sign a Kinship Severance Deed with Kong Laosan."
Sixth Madam nodded and said:
"Yes, I want to divorce Kong Laosan. Both children will stay with me."
Song Yaoyao looked at Kong Laosan and slowly said:
"Kong Laosan, as long as you sign a Divorce Deed with Sixth Madam and a Kinship Severance Deed with your son and daughter, I'll let you go. How does that sound?"
Kong Laosan hastily nodded at those words.
As long as he could stay alive, he would agree to anything.
And so, under Song Yaoyao's supervision, Kong Laosan signed the Divorce Deed and the Kinship Severance Deed.
Both deeds were drawn up in triplicate. Song Yaoyao picked them up and checked them. Once she was certain there were no problems, she told her subordinate:
"Take these to the Government Office and have them processed."
"Yes."
The subordinate took the Divorce Deed and the Kinship Severance Deed and left.
Looking at Sixth Madam and her son, Song Yaoyao said:
"Once the Government Office has processed them, I'll have someone bring you a copy."
Sixth Madam and Kong Siyu bowed to Song Yaoyao again.
Only after everything was settled did Song Yaoyao say to Kong Siyu:
"Young Master Kong, could we find somewhere to speak in private?"
At those words, Sixth Madam knew they had something to discuss and immediately said:
"Now that the divorce is settled, we'll move out as soon as possible. I'll head back and pack our things first."
With that, Sixth Madam left.
Song Yaoyao continued:
"There's a teahouse nearby. Shall we go there?"
