The boss didn't understand what Jian He meant, and he instinctively looked at Cheng Yan sitting next to Jian He.

Cheng Yan glanced at Jian He and said calmly to the boss, "Listen to her."

With just those three simple words, the boss knew what Cheng Yan meant.

He immediately shut his mouth, respectfully approached Jian He, and asked, "Miss Jian, what are your next instructions?"

After a moment's thought, Jian He said, "Don't fall out with Yin Muqiao yet. Isn't he going to hold an art exhibition? Just follow his instructions."

"But... he's no longer the president of the Jian Group. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for him to do this?" The boss hesitated.

His hotel and restaurant are among the most prestigious in Nanluo City, welcoming and seeing off prominent figures in the city. If Yin Muqiao weren't the president of the Jian Group, he wouldn't be qualified to hold an art exhibition here.

Of course, the cost of renting venues and restaurants for the art exhibition is also a considerable expense. Yin Muqiao is no longer the president of the Jian Group, and whether he can afford the cost of this art exhibition is also a concern for the boss.

Jian He could see the boss's worries.

She said, "He held an art exhibition under the name of our Jian Group. Regarding the issue of copyright infringement, our Jian Group will naturally have someone confront him about it."

"As for the expenses required for this art exhibition, you don't need to worry. Yin Muqiao will find a way to make up for the cost."

Hearing Jian He's words, the boss finally felt relieved.

After finishing the matter, the boss still showed no intention of leaving. In his view, Cheng Yan and Jian He's presence at his restaurant was a great honor, and as the owner, he had to serve them personally.

But Cheng Yan thought differently.

He rarely has a moment to sit and have a quiet meal with Jian He. Isn't it a bit of an eyesore for the boss to be standing here?

Cheng Yan put down her chopsticks and looked at the owner.

"Why don't you sit here and eat too?"

"Ah? Uh..."

Cheng Yan's words startled the boss, who, being quick-witted, immediately realized Cheng Yan's displeasure.

He smiled ingratiatingly and said to Cheng Yan, "No, no, Mr. Cheng, please have your meal with Miss Jian. I'll go down now. If you need anything, just call me."

"Ah."

Cheng Yan gave a soft "hmm," and then the boss quickly slipped away from the private room.

Looking at the boss's expression, Jian He asked Cheng Yan with a blank look, "Dr. Cheng, I've noticed that this boss is very afraid of you..."

Hearing Jian He call him Dr. Cheng again, Cheng Yan frowned. He felt a little helpless. Couldn't Jian He call him anything else besides Dr. Cheng and Lawyer Cheng?

Looking at Jian He's innocent face, Cheng Yan seriously put down his chopsticks.

He raised his handsome face and asked Jian He, "Am I that scary-looking?"

Jian He shook her head in denial.

"No... I think you're very gentle, not scary at all."

Cheng Yan chuckled softly and said nothing more.

Little did they know that his gentleness was only reserved for Jian He. Those who were capable of wielding power in Nanluo City, which one of them did not know Cheng Yan's ruthless methods?

In the business world of Nanluo City, Cheng Yan is a unique and formidable figure!

Three days later, Wu's art exhibition was successfully held in Nanluo City.

Because of the early publicity, many prominent figures came to this art exhibition. Most of them were there to support Yin Muqiao, not Wu's paintings.

In their view, although the Jian Group issued a statement saying that Yin Muqiao was no longer the president of their Jian Group,

But Yin Muqiao is still Jian He's husband.

Given Jian He's subservient nature towards Yin Muqiao, sooner or later, Yin Muqiao will still be the de facto head of the Jian Group.

Since it was her home turf, Wu Hua dressed up in her finest clothes and arrived at the art exhibition early in the morning.

Reporters who had made prior arrangements flocked to the scene, surrounding Wu Hua and conducting various interviews.

Wu Hua's shining moment was fully displayed at this time. She answered reporters' questions like a proud queen.

Yin Muqiao also arrived at the art exhibition early. He took off his security guard uniform and put on the formal attire he used to wear to events. With a smile on his face, he came to support Wu's painting.

After interviewing Wu Hua, the reporters left.

Wu Hua pulled Yin Muqiao aside and asked him in a low voice.

"Ah Qiao, do you think Jian He will really transfer the 500 million yuan breakup settlement to your account today? If she doesn't transfer the money, we're doomed today."

Wu Hua's concern was whether the money would actually arrive in her account.

If this money doesn't arrive, she won't be able to settle all her expenses for today's art exhibition.

This is very worrying.

However, just last night, before folding the towel with her, Yin Muqiao had confidently told him that he was fully capable of getting Jian He to transfer every penny of the money to his account.

With a cold expression, Yin Muqiao said slyly to Wu Hua, "Don't worry, she wouldn't dare not give me this money. Isn't she eager to divorce me? If she doesn't give me the money, I definitely won't get a divorce certificate with her."

"Besides, even if she doesn't transfer the money, I have ways to make her compromise. This art exhibition was organized for you under the name of the Jian Group. As long as I don't divorce Jian He, Jian He will have to bear this debt."

“Last night, I sent her a message asking her to come to the art exhibition today to settle the bill. I also told her that this was my last chance to make up with her.”

Yin Muqiao is forgetful and has completely forgotten the resolute attitude Jian He had when she told him she wanted a divorce.

Wu Hua was still somewhat worried.

She asked Yin Muqiao nervously, "What if she doesn't want to take the responsibility?"

Hearing Wu Hua's words, Yin Muqiao snorted coldly and said, "She's just a sycophant by my side. When have I never had her under my thumb? If she dares to shirk her responsibilities, just wait until she's ruined. I don't believe that a woman like her would want me after we divorce."

As they were talking, just as Yin Muqiao looked up, he saw Jian He's car parked at the entrance of the art exhibition.

He watched coldly as Jian He got out of the car, and said disdainfully to Wu Hua beside him, "See, I told you so! How dare she not come? Hua Hua, just wait and see how glamorous you are today, being the most beautiful leading lady at the art exhibition..."

After saying this to Wu Hua, Yin Muqiao put his hands in his pockets, adopted the demeanor of the president of the Jian Group, and stood in front of Jian He.
