After receiving Cheng Yan's message, a subtle smile appeared on Jian He's lips.

She replied: "I'm not sure if there are any activities tonight. Let me ask Uncle Mai about my upcoming schedule..."

Upon seeing Jian He's reply, Cheng Yan gave a sweet smile.

Having been alone for so many years, he increasingly felt that being with Jian He was really quite nice.

Jian He, who was in her office, called over Maison.

"Uncle Mai, I have some things to take care of tonight. Could you talk to your family and arrange things for Rui Bao?"

Jian He was a child that Mason had watched grow up, and he knew very well what Jian He was thinking.

He quickly replied, "Okay, Miss, don't worry, I'll arrange everything for Ruibao. You can go on your date without worry."

Hearing Mason's words, Jian He's face flushed slightly.

Why did she feel that the word "date" sounded rather awkward coming from an old guy like Mason?

She quickly denied it: "Uncle Mai, don't talk nonsense, I'm not going on a date."

Seeing Jian He's obvious attempt to cover up her misdeeds, Mason wasn't in a hurry to expose her.

"Okay, okay, you're not going on a date, you're going to discuss business, I believe you..." Mason didn't really believe him; his face clearly showed stubborn disbelief.

Like a housekeeper, Maison kept nagging Jian He around.

"It's not good for young people to stay cooped up in the office all the time; they should go out and go on dates more often."

"It's good to clear out some of the flowers and plants and go out to see the big forest outside."

Mason was implying something, and the clever Jian He naturally understood what he meant. Once she picked up on Mason's words, the topic would never end.

Because her father, Jian Qingshan, suffered a stroke and became tongue-tied, Mason, his lifelong assistant, became his mouth double, constantly using his mouth to convey Jian Qingshan's message of urging him to get married.

Jian He stopped arguing with him about the issue and started replying to Cheng Yan while holding her phone.

I'm free tonight, so we can have dinner together. I'll come pick you up in a bit, okay?

"[Driving?]" Cheng Yan asked, still feeling uneasy.

Jian He replied: [Yes, driving... Don't worry, I'm a very good driver...]

Upon seeing Jian He's message, Cheng Yan couldn't help but chuckle. The little girl was still a bit naive. If she knew what the hidden meaning behind "very good driving skills" was, she probably would have plunged headfirst into the ground.

Cheng Yan replied with a simple "okay".

After getting off work in the evening, Jian He drove to Cheng Yan's company.

Having not driven for a long time, her skills were a bit rusty, but fortunately, after a while, she quickly got used to the feeling of being in the driver's seat.

She got her driver's license when she was eighteen, and her father, Jian Qingshan, gave her a car as a birthday present.

At that time, she eagerly showed off her car keys to Yin Muqiao, but unexpectedly, Yin Muqiao used psychological manipulation to belittle her and make her feel worthless.

They said she was slow to react, lacked skill, and was clumsy, making her completely unsuitable for driving.

Later, after much persuasion from Yin Muqiao, he finally managed to take the luxury car from Jian He and keep it for himself.

At that time, Jian He naively thought that she was just stupid and that Yin Muqiao was only thinking of her, which was why he didn't let her drive.

Now it seems like utter nonsense. Yin Muqiao was just trying to use suppression to seize his family's assets.

Fortunately, I came to my senses in time.

Now, she is trying to date Cheng Yan, who provides her with enough emotional value and recognition, which has rekindled her confidence in life.

She felt that things were fine as they were.

Jian He put on some music in the car and went to Cheng Yan's office building. Once she arrived, she sent Cheng Yan a message.

Cheng Yan was probably busy. He replied to Jian He: "Wait for me a moment, I'll be right down."

While waiting for Cheng Yan after getting out of the car, Jian He turned around and saw Yin Muqiao, dressed smartly, standing not far from her car.

Jian He didn't want to talk to Yin Muqiao.

However, Yin Muqiao eagerly came closer.

The moment Jian He saw Yin Muqiao, she adopted a tense and aggressive demeanor. Having been hurt before, she was always ready to fight when facing Yin Muqiao.

Perhaps Yin Muqiao had noticed the thorns in Jian He's body, so he changed his expression and spoke to Jian He.

Long time no see, how are you?

Jian He snorted coldly and said, "It has indeed been a long time... However, whether I am doing well or not is none of your concern! Anyway, judging from my current appearance, I am probably doing better than you."

Jian He was confident in saying this, even though she had already divorced Yin Muqiao and didn't want any further entanglement with him.

But when she saw Yin Muqiao living a life worse than that of pigs and dogs, she still felt a sense of satisfaction.

Upon hearing Jian He's hostile words, Yin Muqiao, contrary to his usual behavior, did not get angry.

He looked at Jian He's face and apologized to her with tenderness.

“Jian He, I’m sorry… I wasn’t good enough before, and I betrayed our marriage. Now, after experiencing so much, I realize my mistakes.”

"How about we get back together..."

When Yin Muqiao suddenly asked to get back together, Jian He was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground.

She felt that she must have misheard. How could Yin Muqiao, who had always been aloof and superior to her, be asking her to get back together?

She sneered and mocked Yin Muqiao: "Yin Muqiao, are you out of your mind? You want to get back together with me? Are you kidding me?"

"When you repeatedly humiliated me, did you ever think about getting back together with me?"

"When you let your family bully me, did you ever think that you were wrong?"

"Now that I've finally divorced you and escaped your whole family of bloodsuckers, and I'm finally living a good life, do you want to get back together with me?"

"Yin Muqiao, you're mistaken. Even if I, Jian He, remain a bachelor for the rest of my life, I will never get back together with you."

Jian He spoke with great strength, trying her best to appear tough.

But when she thought of the humiliation she had suffered by Yin Muqiao's side over the years, tears would involuntarily fall from her eyes.

Yin Muqiao kept apologizing to Jian He. When he saw Jian He's tears, he softened a little. He thought that Jian He's tears represented her forgiveness of him. After all, this was not the first time Jian He had forgiven him.

He moved closer to Jian He and reached out to wipe away her tears.

Just then, Cheng Yan led Gao Xiang and his newly appointed secretary Ding Qing out of the elevator.

The image of Yin Muqiao reaching out to touch Jian He's face came into Cheng Yan's view...
