After the divorce, my ex-husband's cousin tricked me into getting a marriage certificate.

Meanwhile, Qi Mu'an, after leaving the company, drove to a dinner party with his college classmates.

He didn't want to go at first, but a teacher he was close to personally called to invite him, so he couldn't refuse.

He asked other classmates and learned that Xu Weiyan would not be attending, so he agreed to go.

Because it was rush hour and his company was located in the most bustling area of ​​the city, he was stuck in traffic for a long time.

He had no choice but to call the teachers and ask them to start the meal first.

Upon arriving at the agreed-upon restaurant and parking the car, Qi Mu'an hurriedly went to the private room for the gathering.

But when he entered the private room, he froze at the doorway.

Xu Weiyan was also present; not only was she there, but the man named Yu Mao was also there.

Everyone else looked embarrassed when they saw him arrive.

The classmate who was close to Qi Mu'an quickly stood up to greet him, "Mu'an is here, come over quickly, I saved you a seat and even reserved a bottle of good wine for you."

Qi Mu'an was pulled to sit down by this classmate, and ended up sitting opposite Xu Weiyan and Yu Mao.

While pouring wine for Qi Mu'an, Tong Xiaobo leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Mu'an, don't be angry. She said she wasn't coming, but then she suddenly showed up. And that man, he wasn't invited by us."

The news of Qi Mu'an's divorce was sensational and spread very quickly, including the story of him catching his wife cheating on him.

Everyone sympathized with Qi Mu'an and thought that Xu Weiyan was too ashamed to attend the class reunion.

I never expected her to be so shameless, actually bringing that man with her.

People suspected that Xu Weiyan did it on purpose, wanting to embarrass Qi Mu'an.

Qi Mu'an recovered and quickly adjusted his emotions. He wasn't the one who did something wrong, so why should he feel embarrassed?

Qi Mu'an raised his glass and generously toasted everyone, "Teacher Yang, classmates, I'm sorry I was late because of traffic. Let me toast you first. After I finish, you can drink as you please."

After Qi Mu'an finished speaking, he drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

Tong Xiaobo led the applause, "Good job, Mu An! Come on, let's toast him together."

Apart from Xu Weiyan and Yu Mao, everyone else raised their glasses to toast Qi Mu'an.

Qi Mu'an glanced at Xu Weiyan, who held her chin high, looking arrogant and disdainful.

Yu Mao, standing beside her, had a cigarette dangling from his lips and was smiling provocatively.

Qi Mu'an ignored the two men and toasted everyone. After finishing his second cup, he poured himself a third.

He turned to toast his teacher, Yang Yu, and said, "Teacher Yang, come, let me toast you. I came here today specifically to see you. Even now, I still remember your teachings to us: honesty is the most important thing in life."

Xu Weiyan's lips twitched, and she rolled her eyes.

Tong Xiaobo put his hand on Qi Mu'an's shoulder and said, "Mu'an is right. Honesty is very important, whether we are at home or outside. But I think the most valuable thing is..."

"Mu An is the big boss of a listed group, but he has never forgotten us old classmates. Today's meal was supposed to be my treat, but Mu An insisted on hosting. Teacher Yang, we are benefiting from your hospitality."

Yang Yu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Mu An. It's rare to see you with such a kind heart. I believe you will get better and better."

Yang Yu's words had a hidden meaning, which everyone understood perfectly.

Xu Weiyan felt very uncomfortable. She had originally wanted to bring Yu Mao to show off.

Knowing that Yang Yu liked to study ancient paintings, she specially asked Yu Mao to pick out a painting to give to Yang Yu.

However, Yang Yu said that he couldn't accept gifts without having done anything right, and refused.

This made her and Yu Mao lose face.

Yang Yu refused to accept the painting from Yu Mao, but readily accepted the meal that Qi Mu'an had treated him to.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Yang Yu deliberately embarrassed her.

Thinking of this, Xu Weiyan sneered, "I didn't expect everyone to become so snobbish. Money really can make the devil turn the millstone."

As soon as Xu Weiyan spoke, the private room fell silent.

Qi Mu'an raised an eyebrow at Xu Weiyan and gave a meaningful smile. "Money is a good thing. What's most worrying is that some people enjoy the convenience of money but look down on it. They are extremely hypocritical."

Xu Weiyan stared straight at Qi Mu'an, knowing he was implying that she had spent a lot of his money.

Because she was short of breath, she couldn't refute it.

Yu Mao chuckled, put down his cigarette, and said slowly, "Chairman Qi, when it comes to money, you definitely have the most say, because your industry makes money the fastest. Whether it's clean or dirty, as long as it's money, you make it."

"Unlike those of us who earn money through our own skills, it comes slowly, but we feel at peace with ourselves."

Qi Mu'an looked at Yu Mao, a smirk playing on her lips as she retorted, "How does Mr. Yu know our company's money isn't clean? Did you overhear something while hiding under my desk?"

Yu Mao paused for a moment, then spread his hands, smiled, and pursed his lips. "Chairman Qi, don't misunderstand. I was talking about your industry, not your company. Please don't take it personally."

"So, Mr. Yu, how much money have you made so far with your skills?" Qi Mu'an directly attacked Yu Mao's weak point.

Yu Mao choked, and after a long while, he stammered, "I haven't earned much money right now..."

"Then where does Mr. Yu get the money for his daily expenses?" Qi Mu'an added, "I think the cigarettes Mr. Yu smokes are not cheap."

Yu Mao's face turned ashen. "Chairman Qi, that's my private matter."

Xu Weiyan, standing to the side, lowered her head, not daring to meet Qi Mu'an's gaze. For the past few years, she had been using Qi Mu'an's money to support Yu Mao.

She kicked Yu Mao under the table, warning him to shut up.

Yu Mao stopped talking, picked up a cigarette from the table, took one out, and tried to light it.

A female classmate next to her immediately raised her hand to cover her nose, her brows furrowed.

Seeing this, Xu Weiyan snatched the cigarette from Yu Mao's hand: "Stop smoking, the air in the room isn't circulating."

Yu Mao forced a smile and said, "Sorry."

Qi Mu'an observed Xu Weiyan's every move without showing any emotion, and when he saw her serving food to Yu Mao, he sneered inwardly.

He and Xu Weiyan had been together for so many years, and he was always the one serving her food; she never served him a single bite.

However, Qi Mu'an was surprised. At this moment, he was very calm, without anger or jealousy.

Qi Mu'an took out his phone and saw that it was a message from Zhao Mengmeng. His phone rang in his pocket.

Zhao Mengmeng: "Chairman Qi, I'm flying to the Southern Film City with Ranran and the others tomorrow. We probably won't be able to see each other for about six months. Please take good care of yourself. Come visit us at the film city when you have time!"

Qi Mu'an thought for a moment, then typed out a message and sent it.

Qi Mu'an: "Where are you? At home? Have you had dinner?"

Zhao Mengmeng: "Yes, I'm at home. I just finished packing my luggage and haven't had dinner yet."

Qi Mu'an shared his location and said, "Take a taxi here, I'll treat you to a big meal. My ex-wife and her boyfriend are also there."

Zhao Mengmeng immediately understood that Qi Mu'an was asking her for help.

Zhao Mengmeng: "It's not far, I can get there in twenty minutes, wait for me."

Twenty minutes later.

Zhao Mengmeng, dressed in a red dress, appeared at the door of the private room.

"Hello everyone, I'm a friend of Chairman Qi. My name is Zhao Mengmeng. Sorry to bother you." Zhao Mengmeng naturally tossed her long, wavy hair and raised her hand to greet everyone.

Everyone present was mesmerized.

Qi Mu'an stretched out his hand to Zhao Mengmeng, "Come here, sit here."
