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

nausea?

I can't believe these words actually came out of Xu Yikang's mouth.

He didn't even understand the situation before he pushed all the responsibility onto me.

What kind of person does he think I am? How could I possibly go and bully Gu Mengmeng with Jiang Yuwei!

"Xu Yikang, what you said went too far! I don't want Gu Mengmeng's leg to get hurt more than anyone else. I know you're angry, but you can't take it out on me like that. I'm not your punching bag!"

Xu Yikang snorted coldly, his face full of disdain.

"You make it sound so nice, then go away, go far away, and never come back!"

I was speechless. Xu Yikang's current behavior was exactly the same as my past life when I was obsessed with love.

Fortunately, I haven't reached the point of being unable to distinguish right from wrong.

“Xu Yikang, wake up, don’t be so foolish, okay?” I tried to calm him down.

But he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't believe Chen Yiran at first, but now I do. You are the villainous male supporting character, and you don't even have the slightest awareness of being a male supporting character. You are a jinx, do you know that you are ruining all of us?"

His words were like a knife, piercing my heart.

I am a flesh-and-blood, ordinary person. Why should I be labeled as a supporting male character? I just want to be myself and don't want to be anyone's foil.

I looked at him coldly. "Since you're so morally upright, let's change the name. You become the male supporting character you're talking about, lock yourself up, or hide in some deep mountain forest, and never show your face again, so that the name Ye Qiu will disappear completely. Wouldn't that bring peace to the world?"

Anyway, according to Chen Yiran, we are just characters in the story, and it doesn't matter who uses the name Ye Qiu.

Xu Yikang was speechless; he clearly hadn't expected me to say that.

At this moment, Gu Mengmeng leaned against the headboard and coughed violently, sounding like she was in great pain.

I wanted to go over and take a look, but Jiang Yuwei stared at me intently, as if she would attack Gu Mengmeng again if I dared to take a step forward.

I understand. The most important thing now is to separate the two of them, otherwise they'll start fighting again in a bit.

So, I grabbed Jiang Yuwei and we left.

But she stood still and didn't move. I tried several times but there was no response, and I was immediately furious.

I shook off her hand. "Fine, stay here if you want! I won't talk to you anymore!"

After saying that, I turned and walked towards the door. Jiang Yuwei suddenly caught up with me and took my hand.

I originally wanted to ask about Grandpa Jiang, but Jiang Yuwei was there, so I didn't dare to bring it up, otherwise she would definitely go crazy again.

As soon as I stepped out of the ward, I shook off Jiang Yuwei's hand. Just then, Zhang Yan and Gu's mother walked over from the end of the corridor.

Zhang Yan held onto Gu's mother's arm; the two looked very affectionate.

I really admire Zhang Yan's outgoing personality. He can chat with anyone, which breaks my stereotype that students from top universities only like immersive learning.

If I had been as clear-headed as Zhang Yan in my previous lives, perhaps I wouldn't have met such a tragic end.

Just then, Zhang Yan walked up to me. "Sir, Mr. Jiang!"

Gu's mother looked at me, "Mengmeng, she..."

I glanced at Jiang Yuwei. If Aunt Gu knew that Jiang Yuwei had just hit Gu Mengmeng, she would probably faint from anger.

"Auntie, why don't you go see Mengmeng first? We'll keep in touch on WeChat later!"

Gu's mother nodded, glancing at Jiang Yuwei with disgust before leaving. I thought Gu's mother's reaction was perfectly normal.

I don't know how Gu Mengmeng is doing now; I can only call and ask when I get back.

I kept a cold face, looking like I didn't want to talk to anyone.

When the elevator arrived, Jiang Yuwei followed me in, while Secretary Li and Zhang Yan tacitly stayed where they were.

I was just about to call them up when Jiang Yuwei pressed the close button first.

Gu Mengmeng's ward was on the thirtieth floor, and it would take quite a while to get down the elevator. So, I deliberately walked to a corner, not wanting to look at Jiang Yuwei even once more!

But Jiang Yuwei seemed oblivious to my coldness, or perhaps she was deliberately playing dumb, and simply followed me. Wherever I went, she went.

"Are you ever going to stop? Can't you stay away from me?!"

Jiang Yuwei's eyes flashed coldly. "Ye Qiu, can't you be fair? We're fighting, but you're only angry at me?"

I stared at her coldly. "Jiang Yuwei, put your hand on your heart and tell me, is that what you call fighting? That was a one-sided beating! Gu Mengmeng has already suffered enough, can't you just leave her alone?"

"What about me?" Jiang Yuwei approached step by step, and I retreated to a corner, pushing her away with my hand to keep my distance.

She looked at me with a stern face: "Am I not miserable either? My husband always sides with other women. Do you know how I feel? Ye Qiu, I'm a human being too. I have normal feelings too!"

As she spoke, Jiang Yuwei's eyes darkened, and she said in a deep voice, "Is it only if I am really killed by Gu Mengmeng that you will stop hating me, or say a word for me?"

"..."

My attitude towards her and Gu Mengmeng is indeed different because, in my eyes, Gu Mengmeng is the weaker one. And Gu Mengmeng doesn't do things that I dislike like Jiang Yuwei does.

"Have you ever respected me? You actually hired someone to spy on me, Jiang Yuwei. I am a person, not your private property. What right do you have to do this?"

I really hate Jiang Yuwei's way of doing things. She always makes decisions on her own and never asks for my opinion.

Jiang Yuwei raised an eyebrow slightly. "I'm spying on you? When?"

I snorted coldly, "Stop pretending, Jiang Yuwei. I'm not stupid. I know exactly what kind of person you are. I'm warning you one last time, don't do anything that disgusts me again."

Jiang Yuwei's face darkened considerably. "Disgusting?"

"Yes!" I said decisively.

I was not only angry at Jiang Yuwei for having someone spy on me, but also angry at her for hitting Gu Mengmeng, so I spoke particularly harshly.

Jiang Yuwei pursed her lips into a thin line, her expression cold and stern, staring intently into my eyes, her gaze filled with an indescribable complex emotion.

I was slightly taken aback, and for a moment I felt like I had done something really wrong.

But then I thought about it again, and it was Jiang Yuwei who was in the wrong. It's normal for me to be angry and lose my temper. Why should I feel guilty?

The elevator stopped, and a lot of people rushed in. Jiang Yuwei cornered me, wrapping her arms around me tightly, separating me from the crowd.

She leaned down slightly, her delicate fragrance filling the surroundings.

I frowned slightly, smelling what seemed to be a bloody odor. Following the scent, I noticed that the white gauze on Jiang Yuwei's hand was stained red with blood.

I suddenly remembered that her hand was injured; the wound inside must have torn open, which was why it was bleeding again.

My brows furrowed; just looking at it made me feel pain. Jiang Yuwei, however, seemed oblivious, staring intently at me.
