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

Chapter 32 The White Moonlight is About to Go Abroad

How could that be? I'm not what Jiang Yuwei wants. No matter what I am, she'll break up with me sooner or later. It's just a matter of time.

I simply ignored it and buried myself in my food, casually adding, "Eat more and talk less."

Seeing that I didn't react, Li Ningsu turned to chat with Meng Ziyin, her smile carrying a hint of teasing: "You're quite pretty, young lady. Do you have a boyfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Ziyin, fearing that she might cause more trouble, quickly said, "Manager Li, I already have a boyfriend."

Upon hearing this, Li Ningsu raised an eyebrow and smiled like a flower: "That's good. My brother-in-law will be your boss from now on. Remember to keep your distance and don't let your wife misunderstand."

I'm speechless. Li Ningsu and Jiang Yuwei are really sisters, so why do they always have to think about that kind of thing whenever they see a man and a woman together? Can't they just be like brothers in distress, sharing the same plight?

I didn't intend to explain, but Meng Ziyin quickly waved her hand to clarify: "No, no, my boyfriend and I have a very good relationship. Although he is going abroad, we have agreed that no matter how far apart we are, we will not be separated. He will not misunderstand."

Li Ningsu was quite surprised to hear that her boyfriend was going abroad: "Your boyfriend is going abroad? When?"

“It was originally scheduled for three days later, but he heard there would be heavy rain that day, so he changed his flight to tomorrow,” Meng Ziyin said.

Tomorrow? I was taken aback. Time flies. After tomorrow, Jiang Yuwei will probably discover her feelings for Chen Yiran and then chase after him abroad, staging a dramatic scene.

After giving Meng Ziyin a heads-up, Li Ningsu turned to me and "educated" me: "Brother-in-law, don't be blinded by this girl's appearance. Compared to Sister Jiang, she's far inferior."

"And another thing, when it comes to men and women, money is the most important thing in the end. Sister Jiang is a big shot in the business world, and she's beautiful. Apart from being a little younger, how can she compare to my sister? Don't be foolish."

I couldn't take it anymore and snapped at her, "Have you been cheated on before? Why is your mind filled with all this nonsense?"

Li Ningsu was still smiling, neither annoyed nor angry: "Haha, it was just a reminder, come on, cheers!"

I couldn't be bothered to argue with her. We clinked glasses, exchanged a few polite words, and continued eating. I had to rush back to the hospital afterward; my uncle was still feeling unwell.

When they were almost finished eating, Li Ningsu's phone rang. Surprisingly, she didn't try to avoid suspicion and answered it while still sitting down.

"Oh, what a rare guest! You actually came to find me." Judging from the tone, they seemed quite familiar with each other.

I glanced at her furtively and saw that she was smiling quite happily. "Drinking? Are you in a bad mood? Who upset you? It wasn't my brother-in-law, was it?" When she said "brother-in-law," she even gave me a special look.

My heart skipped a beat; I had a bad feeling—

Could it be that dog of a woman, Jiang Yuwei, over there?

But then I thought, Jiang Yuwei must be happy right now. Even without me hanging around in front of her, she can still find Chen Yiran anytime. How could she be in a bad mood?

Li Ningsu was still refusing him: "No, no, I don't have time to drink with you right now. I'm with a super talented concept artist, Ye Qiu, the one you've been looking for."

I:"……"

I changed my stage name because I wanted to keep a low profile and not let people know that I am Ye Qiu.

But Li Ningsu, that guy, promised to keep it a secret, but then he betrayed me!

Upon hearing this, Meng Ziyin's eyes widened as if she had seen a ghost, then her eyes lit up with excitement as she whispered, "Brother Ye Qiu, you really are that great god! I thought it was just a coincidence of names."

I quickly made a shushing gesture at her, feeling a little uneasy.

There are plenty of celebrities in this industry, one after another, but because I became famous at a young age, I've always received a lot of attention. But then again, I've been out of the industry for a year now, and my skills are definitely not what they used to be.

Meng Ziyin was quite perceptive and didn't ask any more questions, but I could tell that she couldn't hide her joy.

Li Ningsu chimed in from the side, "What, you're coming too? Sure, I'll send you the location."

I get a headache just thinking about it. I don't want to see anyone who knows my background, especially unreliable people like Li Ningsu.

So I patted her on the shoulder and whispered, "I have to go see my uncle. See you at the hospital, we'll talk tomorrow."

After saying that, I greeted Meng Ziyin and made my escape.

Anyway, I'm here today to complete the onboarding process; I haven't officially started work yet.

I wasn't really listening to what Li Ningsu said afterward; it seemed like she mentioned hospitals and sick people.

I guess she was explaining to the person on the other end of the phone why I suddenly left.

I don't care; normal people won't come to the hospital to find me anyway.

Gu Mengmeng is probably at the hospital with her uncle. I packed two meals to take with me.

The ward door was open, and I immediately saw my uncle and Gu Mengmeng sitting on the same side. My uncle looked calm and composed, but Gu Mengmeng seemed a little anxious.

I pushed the door open and went in, jokingly asking, "What are you two talking about so intently?"

They both looked up when they heard my voice.

Gu Mengmeng's eyes were bright, and she smiled especially brightly: "Ye Qiu, you're back! Did your onboarding go smoothly?"

I nodded: "It went smoothly. You haven't eaten yet, have you? I brought some food."

Gu Mengmeng took the food and said with a smile, "My game of chess with my uncle is not over yet, let's finish it before we eat."

I looked down and saw that the black pieces on the chessboard were almost surrounding the white pieces. Gu Mengmeng was hesitating, holding a white piece.

Although I don't understand Go, I can see that the situation is advantageous to Black. I teased her with a smile, "Gu Mengmeng, I can't even watch you play anymore. Black is clearly going to win."

Gu Mengmeng frowned defiantly, "What if there's still a chance to turn the tables?"

But her uncle praised her for her persistence and resilience, which is also the spirit of Go.

However, after only a few moves, Gu Mengmeng conceded defeat; her uncle's chess skills were indeed superb.

The uncle praised Gu Mengmeng for playing well, saying that although she was not a professional chess player, it was still quite remarkable.

Gu Mengmeng's eyes lit up, and she turned to invite me to join in: "Ye Qiu, want to play a round?"

I quickly waved my hand and refused: "No, no, Go is too difficult, I don't know how. Besides, looking at my uncle's level, how could I dare to show off my limited skills?"

My uncle laughed heartily at my praise; he seemed to particularly enjoy hearing compliments from me. Gu Mengmeng also smiled: "Uncle is indeed very good at Go; even I am no match for him. Speaking of Go masters, I'm reminded of Chang Heng, a genius professional 9-dan player, but unfortunately he retired later."

"Your uncle should know him too, right?" Gu Mengmeng asked her uncle.
