After the divorce, the CEO knelt down every night begging for remarriage.

Li Tingze ordered the Su mother and daughter to leave.

Using the excuse that she was starving after waiting all morning and had no energy to walk, Su's mother continued to linger and refused to leave.

Instead of going all out, Li Tingze ordered the servants to prepare a sumptuous meal.

Su Nianqing thought that Li Tingze still felt sorry for her, and was feeling smug when she saw Li Tingze leave like a gust of wind.

At that moment, her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe.

Su's mother, standing beside her, said coldly, "I told you long ago that once a man has tasted a woman, he won't let go easily. I told you to cut your losses quickly, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened; not only has Aze not divorced Lin Zhi, he's even more inseparable from her."

Su Nianqing's heart was already bleeding, and her mother was rubbing salt into her wounds.

With tears welling in her eyes, she looked around the luxurious villa, her resentment reaching its peak.

Why is Lin Zhi allowed to live in such a luxurious villa and enjoy a life of wealth?

She, on the other hand, had to spend all her time in the hospital, enduring the pain of medication.

All of this should have belonged to her; Lin Zhi stole her original happiness.

She stood in the main hall, her eyes scanning every brick and tile, her mind already imagining the happy and carefree life she would have living here.

The arrival of the maid interrupted her sweet dream.

The maid spoke in an extremely unfriendly tone: "Ms. Su, the food is ready. Would you like to eat now, or take it home to eat?"

Mother Su put on airs and arrogantly roared, "Who do you think you are, daring to talk to me like that? Believe me or not, once Nianqing moves in, you'll be the first one fired."

The maid gave a cold laugh and didn't respond.

But this angered Su's mother.

Su's mother raised her hand and slapped the maid hard across the face.

A loud crack echoed throughout the main hall.

The maid was taken aback by Su's mother's actions. After a few seconds of stunned silence, she pulled a long face and scolded, "I advise you to stop daydreaming. My husband and wife are very loving. They are always in their room at home, so affectionate that they don't want to come down to eat. My husband has even turned down unnecessary social engagements so that he can come home earlier to be with his wife."

"You came to our door today because you were neglected and ignored. You want to force your wife out and demand an explanation from your husband."

"The master didn't even glance at you before he went out to find his wife, worried. Do you think it's possible that the mistress of this house will change hands?"

The maid's blunt words struck a nerve with the Su mother and daughter.

Su's mother blushed with embarrassment and wanted to curse, but Su Nianqing held her back.

Su Nianqing shed her delicate exterior and declared arrogantly, "I will definitely be the mistress of this house. Just you wait and see, don't let your smile look worse than a cry!"

After this commotion, the Su mother and daughter were unable to eat their meal.

The two glared fiercely at the servant, then strode away with haughty steps.

No sooner had they left than the maids sprayed disinfectant into the air.

The maids complained that the space they had been in was dirty!

The Su mother and daughter were furious.

……

Shen's Jewelry.

After quickly tidying up, Lin Zhi went to the office.

As soon as she sat down, Shen Mubai rushed over to her. Looking at the small duffel bag she hadn't had time to put away, he asked in utter confusion, "You... you and President Li had a fight and separated?"

Lin Zhi didn't know how to explain, so she just smiled faintly.

Shen Mubai took her smile as a definite answer, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "It's not safe to live in the office. If you don't mind, you can stay in the company's employee dormitory for a while. It has everything you need, but it's a bit small, and I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

Lin Zhi recalled the rented apartment she used to live in; although small, it gave her enough warmth and a sense of security.

She truly regretted not renewing her lease, otherwise she wouldn't be homeless now.

Lin Zhi didn't want to involve Shen Mubai, so she shook her head and refused: "It's okay, I'll only be staying for two or three days, it's fine."

Shen Mubai insisted, "There's nothing here, let's go stay in the dormitory."

Lin Zhi didn't know how to refuse; deep down, she really didn't want to drag Shen Mubai into this mess.

If Li Tingze finds out, he'll definitely make a big deal out of it.

As luck would have it, her phone rang.

As soon as the call was answered, it was Li Tingze's voice that came from the unfamiliar number.

The first thing Li Tingze asked her was where she was, saying he was coming to find her right now. When he learned that she had gone to Shen's Jewelry, he was so angry that he threw his phone down and hung up the phone.

Lin Zhi knew in her heart that he must already be on his way to Shen's Jewelry.

Shen Mubai tactfully said, "President Li seems to care about you quite a bit. Looks like you can forget about living in the office."

Lin Zhi gave a bitter smile.

For the first time, she opened up and said, "Mr. Shen, you're a man too. Under what circumstances would a man suddenly undergo a drastic personality change, becoming both gentle and considerate towards his wife?"

Shen Mubai was stunned.

This was the first time Lin Zhi had discussed her relationship with Li Tingze in front of him.

He believed that Lin Zhi already had the answer to this question, but she wasn't entirely sure and wanted confirmation from someone else.

He could tell from her questions that she cared a lot about Li Tingze's attitude towards their marriage.

His heart was filled with disappointment.

Lin Zhi belatedly realized her mistake and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Shen Mubai smiled gently and said in a mild tone, "Sister Zhi'er, I'm actually very happy that you can talk to me about your feelings. I'm also happy to help you solve your problems. From a man's perspective, the fact that President Li changed for you shows that he still cares about you and wants to continue this marriage. As for the real reason, it's nothing more than that he needs you or that he loves you."

Lin Zhi hummed in agreement.

Shen Mubai's analysis was correct; Li Tingze did indeed need a wife like her who could be ordered around at will.

As for love, it was too much of a luxury for her to even think about.

Shen Mubai saw Lin Zhi's expression and felt a pang of pain in his heart.

He couldn't fathom her heart, whether she still loved Li Tingze.

Li Tingze's first appearance at Shen's Jewelry caused quite a stir.

He rarely brought Lin Zhi to public events, and most people had never seen Mrs. Li's true face. They only knew that Li Tingze had married young, shattering the dreams of countless young girls.

When the employees of Shen's Jewelry learned that Lin Zhi was the powerful Mrs. Li, they were all shocked.

Especially Chen Ran.

When she thought back to how poor Lin Zhi had to borrow ten years' worth of salary in advance, she was both amused and exasperated.

In a romantic relationship, she became a part of the drama between Li Tingze and Lin Zhi?

Shen Mubai stood beside Lin Zhi, watching Li Tingze walk towards them. He leaned down and whispered in Lin Zhi's ear, "The people who need you have come to take you back."

Lin Zhi stared at Shen Mubai with wide surprise.

She never expected that he could read her true thoughts.

Shen Mubai raised his hand and gently patted the top of her head, giving her a meaningful look.

She hadn't even had time to look away.

Her slender wrist was gripped tightly, and she fell into his burning chest.

Looking up, she saw a burning fire in Li Tingze's eyes.

It seemed to be about to devour her!
