That's why I want you to be happy. Marrying me clearly hasn't made you happy, so I've decided to let you go. Ruixiang, I won't deny the things I've done in the past. No matter my intentions, a mistake is a mistake. So, if you can't forgive me, I won't argue. Now, since divorce is what you want, I'll agree to it."
