"Huh? Auntie, you didn't cheat on me?"

Chu Lan was extremely surprised, then looked at Xu Tian, ​​who was also completely dumbfounded.

The reason Zhao Jing contacted her yesterday was probably because of her mother's affair, and today Zhao Jing has clearly told the two of them that her mother did indeed have an affair.

Given the huge commotion caused by the Zhao family, who can believe that Zhao's mother didn't have an affair?

Thinking of this, Xu Tian assumed that Zhao's mother felt ashamed, which was why she didn't tell the truth.

“Auntie, we are all well aware of your situation in the Zhao family. Although it may not be pleasant to say, we understand you.”

Chu Lan quickly added, "Yes, Xu Tian and I think the same way. Don't worry about what others think of you."

Seeing that the two didn't believe her, Zhao's mother smiled helplessly and said, "I really didn't cheat on you..."

Then, the conversation turned to traveling abroad.

Zhao Jing was very satisfied with the hotel she booked abroad, so she didn't change hotels for several days in a row.

It was at this time that her childhood sweetheart moved in. Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, they felt an instant connection and reconnected.

Then we went out for meals and walks together, and visited various tourist attractions.

It was under these circumstances that Zhao's mother learned that her childhood sweetheart had remained unmarried for so many years, and the reason for this was because of her.

Even so, Zhao's mother was not overwhelmed by the joy of the reunion. Although she had suffered a lot of grievances in the Zhao family over the years, her feelings for Zhao Pengfei remained deep. Therefore, she did not immediately accept the pursuit of her childhood sweetheart.

Xu Tian could tell that Zhao's mother was very comfortable with her childhood sweetheart, as she spoke with a smile throughout.

"Then what are you..."

Chu Lan looked at Zhao's mother with a puzzled expression.

A hint of sadness flashed in Zhao's mother's eyes. "I just wanted to take this opportunity to test Zhao Pengfei's feelings for me."

"So many years have passed, and everything has changed in the end."

Chu Lan felt a pang of sadness as she listened; as a woman herself, she understood Zhao's mother.

"So what do you plan to do now?" Xu Tian continued to ask.

Zhao's mother looked at him firmly, "Divorce!"

“I’m already uncomfortable in this family, and Zhao Pengfei has become a completely different person. Why can’t I pursue my own happiness?”

Xu Tian nodded approvingly. It seemed that Zhao's mother had completely given up on Zhao Pengfei, but given Zhao Pengfei's personality, he wouldn't let her get a divorce so easily unless she gave up her assets.

"Mom, have some hot water."

Zhao Jing walked out of the kitchen, looking distracted.

Zhao's mother looked at her daughter with heartache, not knowing how to comfort her.

The root of all the blame lies with Zhao Pengfei. He can disregard the life or death of his wife, but how can he ignore the daughter he has raised for so many years!

Zhao Jing may seem carefree on the surface, but she deeply needs the approval of her family. Zhao Pengfei's words today have completely broken her heart.

Thinking of this, Zhao's mother looked at Xu Tian and said, "Jing'er is the one who suffers the most from this. I hope you can spend more time with her."

Xu Tian nodded. "That's only right. Zhao Jing is also my friend."

Zhao's mother still had some things she wanted to say to Xu Tian, ​​but with Chu Lan there, she could only stop there for now.

"Mom, what are you planning to do next?"

Although Zhao Jing was deeply affected, she was still very worried about her mother's current situation.

Zhao's mother's eyes hardened, and she clenched her hands tightly, as if she had made up her mind.

“I have sacrificed too much for this family over the years, and I must fight for the property, which belongs to me and Jing’er.”

"I will hire a lawyer and collect evidence, no matter how difficult the process may be."

Zhao Jing listened with alarm, but she also saw a strength and courage in her mother that she had never seen before.

This was something she had never sensed from Zhao's mother before.

"Alright, then Chu Lan and I will do our best to help you."

Xu Tian looked at Chu Lan, and Chu Lan smiled and nodded.

Zhao's mother continued, "Zhao Pengfei has been in close contact with the Meiyi Group recently, which may break his cooperation with the Xu Group. You should also be careful."

Chu Lan didn't take it seriously. Over the years, she had never cared about the cooperation with the Xu Group, and she had never paid any attention to Zhao Pengfei.

The only person we need to be wary of now is Lin Wan'er. What is she planning to do by joining forces with so many companies in Jiangcheng?

Are they trying to suppress the Xu Group through these means?

That was wishful thinking. Chu Lan had always believed that he could deal with Lin Wan'er completely, and even if he failed in the end, Jiang Wanyi would step in.

Moreover, at that time, the headquarters of the Kimchi National Beauty Medical Group was threatened by other conglomerates. If it weren't for the intervention of the Xu family, they would have gone bankrupt long ago, and they wouldn't be where they are today.

If Lin Wan'er really wants to bite Lü Dongbin's dog, Chu Lan wouldn't mind teaching her to be a better person!

After comforting Zhao's mother and Zhao Jing for a while, the two drove away to Xu's Group.

On the way, Xu Tian came up with a win-win solution for Zhao Jing's current situation.

Since we're getting a divorce, we need to put Zhao Pengfei's family in a passive position.

Since Zhao Pengfei completely disregarded the feelings of his biological daughter Zhao Jing for the sake of his own interests, Zhao Jing is no longer threatened by him.

Therefore, the live stream can continue. The live stream will indirectly affect Lin Wan'er's business. At that time, Lin Wan'er will put pressure on Zhao Pengfei, and Zhao's mother and Zhao Jing can use this to force Zhao Pengfei to comply.

Moreover, the resources that Zhao's mother currently controls could very well be the final straw that breaks Zhao Pengfei's back!

We just need to give Zhao Jing some time to accept what's happening.

"You're so smart!"

Chu Lan nodded in approval after listening.

"Absolutely! As your boyfriend, I can't be worse than you!"

Chu Lan said shyly, "Even if you're not smart, I still like you."

"What I want isn't just liking, but also a woman's adoration for a man!"

"Tell me, do you worship me or not!?"

"I'm absolutely in awe! With you here, there's no need for President Jiang to lift a finger!"

Just as the two were getting intimate in the office, Ouyang Ying, Chu Lan's bodyguard, knocked on the door and came in.

The two immediately straightened up, acting as if they were strangers, giving off a feeling of trying too hard to hide something.

"what's up?"

Ouyang Ying said with a serious expression, "Jiangcheng has been quite unsettled lately. I knock on the door every half hour to check on President Chu's safety. Sorry for the intrusion!"

He then bowed deeply to express his apology.

Xu Tian was speechless. This guy was too dedicated. He was in the office too, and he still couldn't protect his woman.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian said angrily, "You're questioning my abilities!"

Ouyang Ying looked at Xu Tian seriously, "Young Master, although you are strong, you still lack some experience!"

"What...what do you mean?!"

Xu Tian stood up awkwardly. How could he tell his beloved woman that he was no good?

Thinking this, Xu Tian kept giving Ouyang Ying meaningful glances.

Ouyang Ying, being straightforward, continued, "Young Master, given your current physical condition, how about I give you a suggestion if you want to become even stronger?"

"What suggestion?" Xu Tian asked casually.

“Abstinence…”
