After the divorce, the aloof female CEO was filled with regret.

Chapter 23 That bitch isn't answering the phone again.

I quickly veered off course to avoid colliding with her.

Yu Guangzhong saw that the person was wearing a sundress. Before I could see her face clearly, I heard her say with a grin, "Brother-in-law!"

I looked up suddenly and saw that the woman was wearing large pink sunglasses that covered most of her face, leaving only her bright red lips visible.

"Li Ningsu".

Li Ningsu took off her sunglasses, revealing her heavily made-up face, and immediately laughed: "What a coincidence, brother-in-law, we even bumped into each other at the hospital."

Unfortunately, this is bad luck.

Now, whenever I see her, I can recall what happened on the day of the interview.

I remained expressionless, not wanting to get entangled with her any longer, and replied perfunctorily, "It is quite a coincidence."

He then turned to leave.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave, brother-in-law?" Li Ningsu caught up with me. "What are you doing at the hospital, brother-in-law? Why isn't my sister Jiang with you?"

I didn't stop walking, and said coldly, "Why do you care so much?"

Li Ningsu clicked her tongue, "Brother-in-law has quite a temper these days. He's so lively and energetic; he doesn't seem sick at all."

As she spoke, Li Ningsu's gaze suddenly sharpened. She stared at me for a moment, then gave a sly smile.

"You didn't cheat on me, did you? And got another woman pregnant so you're here for an abortion?"

As she spoke, she felt she had guessed the truth, and her voice gradually grew louder, attracting the attention of those around her.

How embarrassing! I frowned and glared at her.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You're so young, but you don't seem to be very bright. Did you come to the hospital for an abortion?"

Li Ningsu looked at me in surprise, "Before, you only thought about what to cook for Sister Jiang every day, and waited for her to get off work on time. You were like a living dead person, and you didn't dare to show any temper. Now you are lively and interesting."

In my past life, I wasn't called the Living Dead; it was simply because I loved deeply.

I gave her a dagger-like look, ignored her, and kept walking.

Li Ningsu caught up again, "By the way, brother-in-law, didn't you go for an interview at my company before? I saw your resume."

“I don’t want to miss out on such a talented illustrator like you. Why don’t you come work for me? We can discuss the salary and benefits. Don’t worry, my company won’t let Sister Jiang interfere.”

Upon hearing this, I immediately stopped and looked at Li Ningsu. "You want to accept me?"

I thought she would reject me directly because of Jiang Yuwei.

Li Ningsu nodded matter-of-factly, “I’ve put a lot of effort into developing this game, and it’s just in the initial stages. Hiring a good concept artist is an essential part of it. Why would I joke around with my own company and money?”

My eyes darkened slightly, and I pursed my lips.

My uncle urgently needs money for surgery, and I also need to repay Gu Mengmeng's money. My pride and self-esteem cannot stop me from working to earn money.

"I can come to your place, but I'll charge a high price."

Before I could finish speaking, I quickly added, "Don't worry, I won't take your money for nothing. I will create value for you."

Li Ningsu smiled and said, "Of course, I never intended to offer you a low salary."

She muttered something under her breath, which I didn't quite catch, but it was something like someone had been looking for me for a long time, and now that Li Ning and Su Xian had found me, she was going to sit back and watch the show.

I took it as the good show she wanted to see being my achievement, so I didn't ask any further questions.

"When do I report to the company?" I asked while getting some water.

Li Ningsu said without hesitation, "You can come anytime to complete the onboarding process and discuss specific salary and benefits."

I agreed.

After we agreed on the terms and the water was ready, Li Ningsu insisted on taking me to the ward.

"No need, you can go about your own business."

Li Ningsu followed me around like a shadow, saying, "Now, you're my employee, and it's only right for a boss to care about his employees."

She was so attentive, unlike a boss. She had such a pretty face, but her words and actions were so frivolous. I didn't like her.

She followed me to the ward, and only after seeing the man lying inside did she ask, with a hint of surprise,

"Brother-in-law, who is this?"

I poured a cup of hot water, soaked a cotton swab in it, and gently dabbed it on my uncle's dry, white lips.

"My uncle just had surgery."

Li Ningsu looked around as if searching for something, then looked at me with a puzzled expression.

"Does Sister Jiang know about this? Your uncle is in such a big trouble, and she hasn't even shown her face?"

After moisturizing my uncle's lips, I poured myself a glass of water, and while blowing on it to cool it down, I said:

“He is my uncle. I can take care of myself. I don’t need her.”

Li Ningsu looked thoughtful, her eyes changed, and then she said goodbye to me and turned to leave.

I didn't pay much attention, but I never imagined that today's incident would cause me so much trouble—

I sat in the chair, watching my uncle mutter incessantly due to the anesthesia, and couldn't help but think of Jiang Yuwei.

Jiang Yuwei had always believed that I was only after money, and that my repeated attempts to play hard to get with her were not because I genuinely wanted a divorce.

Now that I haven't gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau to divorce her, and I've stood her up, she must think that I can't keep up the act anymore, that I've gone too far, and that I'm too afraid to get a divorce.

This further confirms that I was playing hard to get with her.

I sighed softly, took out my phone, and called Jiang Yuwei.

No matter what, this marriage must end. I want the money I'm owed to Jiang Yuwei...

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later..."

That bitch! I gritted my teeth and called her again…
