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

"What!" I asked in shock, "What was the reason for his dismissal?"

This shouldn't be happening. According to the timeline of the previous life, Bai Hejie should have been dismissed at least two or three years away. How come it's happening so soon?

Secretary Chen explained, "He used his network of connections to engage in underhanded practices, which damaged the company's image. President Jiang has decided not to keep him."

I was speechless for a moment, after all, I had complained to Jiang Yuwei that Bai Hejie had indeed had affairs with quite a few people.

But then another question suddenly occurred to me: Bai Hejie was fired because of me in this life, but what about in the previous life?

In both my past and present lives, Bai Hejie has always performed exceptionally well at work. However, in my past life, after he bullied me, he was caught in bed with another woman that very night, his reputation was ruined, and he was fired. This...

My heart skipped a beat, as if a dark hand was manipulating everything from behind the scenes!

Who is it? Is it someone who wants to help me teach the bad guys a lesson, or someone who wants to ruin Jiang Yuwei's company?

Secretary Chen's voice rang out again, interrupting my thoughts.

"Sir, Ms. Jiang has gone to a meeting. She told you that if you need anything, you can go directly to the company to find her."

"President Jiang also said that if you don't go, she might have new arrangements and then she might not have time to see you."

"Okay, I understand," I replied and hung up the phone.

I have to go to the company to see Jiang Yuwei; I need to divorce her. But we had a huge argument yesterday, and I know that forcing a conversation won't get us anywhere.

I thought about it and sent a message to Meng Ziyin to inquire about Chen Yiran's situation.

Sure enough, Meng Ziyin told me that Chen Yiran was leaving the country today, with a flight at 10 pm.

Jiang Yuwei's beloved is leaving tonight; she must be very reluctant to let him go.

I've forgotten for a moment when she realized in her past life that she truly loved Chen Yiran, but it shouldn't have been today. Logically, I should force Jiang Yuwei to recognize her own feelings; only when she does will she agree to divorce me.

But Meng Ziyin...

That poor Meng Ziyin, if I get liberated, she'll probably start having bad luck. I can't bear to do it, but I can still give her a little push, after all, I'm determined to get a divorce.

I held my phone tightly, my fingers flying across the screen until I finished dealing with the matter. Only then did I stand up and return to the ward to find my uncle.

Gu Mengmeng hadn't returned yet. When my uncle heard that I was going to find Jiang Yuwei, a knowing look flashed in his eyes, and he smiled slightly, "Go ahead."

I ignored my uncle's expression and walked straight out. Just as I reached the door, I saw a familiar figure loitering in the corridor.

He was wearing a black T-shirt, loose ripped jeans, and large sunglasses, looking like a spirited young man.

Coincidentally, as he passed the ward door, he turned around and looked inside. Upon seeing me, he took a few steps back and stopped at the doorway.

He pushed his sunglasses up to his nose, looked up at me, and a sly smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh, I thought it was some handsome guy, but it turns out to be my 'brother-in-law'."

He deliberately emphasized the word "brother-in-law," clearly not sincerely, but sarcastically.

That's right, the carefree man in front of you is Jiang Yuwei's younger brother, Jiang Yichen.

Seeing him makes me feel like I've swallowed a fly.

I looked him up and down, then shook my head dismissively.

Seeing me like this, Jiang Yichen took off his sunglasses and stood up straight.

What do you mean by shaking your head?

"It's nothing." I didn't want to waste my breath arguing with him, so I turned to leave, but Jiang Yichen stopped me.

He glanced around the ward and then smiled smugly.

"Ye Qiu, you've fallen so low as to work as a caregiver? And you still want to divorce my sister? My mother was right, you brought this on yourself."

I couldn't be bothered with him. Jiang Yichen was so noisy. "Get out of my way. I don't have time to waste my breath on you."

Jiang Yichen, however, was very dissatisfied with my reaction.

"Ye Qiu, you used to be so obedient to me. I think you're still a decent person, so I'll give you some face."

"Who gave you the audacity to speak to me like that? My mother said you're not even worthy to carry my shoes; you're just a servant, a lackey of the Jiang family!"

"Now you dare to put on airs in front of me? Without my sister, you're nothing, a penniless pauper, a country bumpkin! If I were you, I would have been crying and begging my sister for mercy, maybe then I could have a better life!"

His voice was loud, and people around him stopped and watched the commotion with curiosity.

I wasn't angry; in fact, I found it rather funny.

In my past life, I knew that Jiang Yichen was a spoiled young master. No matter how well I did, in his eyes I was always a servant, a slave.

I love Jiang Yuwei, and by extension, I love everything about her, so no matter how Jiang Yichen treats me, I tolerate it.

But in this life, I won't be so easy to talk to. If you upset me, even Jiang Yuwei will have to step aside, let alone Jiang Yichen.

I smiled slightly, my tone calm yet firm.

"How I am doing is none of your business, is it?"

"Instead of wasting time arguing with me, you should go take care of your little lover who just had an abortion. If something goes wrong, the Jiang family will lose face big time."

The onlookers immediately shifted their gaze from me to Jiang Yichen. He was taken aback, and then his expression changed drastically.

"What nonsense are you spouting?!"

I raised an eyebrow casually. "Don't admit it? The scent of women's perfume on you is quite strong, and it's a high-end brand. That means you've just been in close contact with a woman."

"This is the inpatient ward. You're not injured and your clothes are neat, which only means you just brought someone else here."

"If the other person only had a minor illness or pain, knowing you as a bad seed, you wouldn't care and would just find someone else. But since you came along, it means the other person is pregnant."

Jiang Yichen's eyes became wary, as if I had touched on his secret, and then he said angrily.

"Who are you calling a bad seed? Go ahead and insult me! Do you believe I'll get my mom to teach you a lesson?"

I crossed my arms and laughed dismissively. "Jiang Yichen, how old are you? All you know is how to look for your mother?"

“I advise you, the Jiang family is a wealthy family. If you have an illegitimate child outside, your mother may not do anything, but your father will not let you off easily.”

Someone in the crowd couldn't help but laugh, mocking, "Looks like he's not only a scumbag, but also a mama's boy. He looks decent enough, but his actions are worse than those of a pig or a dog."

Jiang Yichen was very concerned about his image, and his face turned pale and then red after being ridiculed.

His hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles making a cracking sound, and he glared at me fiercely.

"Ye Qiu, I think you've really gone mad. You were acting crazy at the last family banquet, saying my sister was infertile and bullying my mother. Now you're bullying me too. Do you really think the Jiang family is easy to bully?!"

"Let me tell you, you'll regret offending me today. Kneel down and apologize to me right now, and I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, otherwise..."

"Or what?" Before I could respond, my uncle, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up in the ward, his voice deep and powerful, "Kid, you dare to touch him and see what happens?"
