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

I couldn't help but cough, muttering to myself.

It's strange, even though nothing happened, why do I feel so guilty, like I've done something wrong?

Li Ningsu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, her face filled with disbelief. After a long while, she managed to squeeze out, "Meng Ziyin, go buy a cup of coffee."

This was clearly just an excuse, so Meng Ziyin left without saying a word.

Li Ningsu rushed towards me like a gust of wind, large beads of sweat dripping from her forehead.

"Brother-in-law, do you really have something going on with this girl? It's a good thing Sister Jiang didn't come today, otherwise she would have been furious if she saw you two hugging!"

I sipped my coffee nonchalantly. "What nonsense! She was looking at me with nothing but gratitude. Are you blind?"

Just as Li Ningsu was about to speak, I interrupted her swiftly, "Alright, alright, I'm just a nobody, don't worry about my private life. What do you want from me? Just say it."

Li Ningsu swallowed back the words she was about to say, "Um, Sister Jiang wants you to go to her place now to discuss business cooperation..."

My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately thought of what Li Jingxiu had mentioned to me that morning. Jiang Yuwei was furious last night and definitely wouldn't let me off easily.

Ha, Li Jingxiu must have caused a lot of trouble last night. That bitch Jiang Yuwei probably believed everything. She might even have made up a whole bunch of dramas about me in her mind.

I reckon this business cooperation is a sham; they're just looking for trouble and settling scores with me later.

"Don't go."

Li Ningsu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "No, brother-in-law, this is company business! Sister Jiang originally wanted to contact Ye Qiu, but you weren't willing, so I gave her a fake number. As a result, she said she couldn't get in touch with her, and the overseas cooperation fell through. But her project still needs to continue, so you have to finish this cooperation."

I sneered, "So you only have me as a designer in your company?"

Li Ningsu burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably. "Brother-in-law, let me tell you the truth. Even if there are a hundred designers in the company, Sister Jiang only has her eye on you. She just told me that if you don't go, she'll make me fire Meng Ziyin."

I slammed the coffee cup down on the table, a hint of coldness flashing in my eyes, but I kept my nonchalant attitude.

"She actually used Meng Ziyin to intimidate me. How ridiculous! Does she think I'm some pushover like Chen Yiran?"

But in the end, I compromised, not for any other reason than what Li Ningsu said next.

"Sister Jiang also said that if her brother-in-law didn't go, she would fire him and blacklist him throughout the industry."

Damn it, no need to say anything more!

Every word she said was telling me that this penniless guy had no right to refuse the orders of this big shot.

Going back on her word, betraying me after I've served my purpose, cutting off my path to finding a lawyer, and now she's even threatening my livelihood. Jiang Yuwei is really going too far!

What exactly is she trying to do? Is she trying to drive me to the brink so I'll go back to being her nanny and simp?

I stormed to Jiang Yuwei's company in a rage. I've been there several times before, and everyone knows me, so no one dared to stop me.

I rushed straight to Jiang Yuwei's office, only to be blocked at the door by Secretary Li.

"Sir, Mr. Jiang is busy discussing cooperation. You can't go in and cause trouble right now."

Go to hell! She forced me to come here, but she's hiding inside and refusing to come out.

"Stop arguing and get out of the way!" I was furious. I flung Secretary Li's hand away, pushed open the door, and stormed in.

In the office, two people were sitting on the sofa. A middle-aged man in a suit was staring at me with wide eyes, looking astonished, but he didn't dare to move. He just looked at Jiang Yuwei in fear.

"President Jiang, what... what is this?"

I glanced to the side and saw Jiang Yuwei elegantly crossing her legs, dressed in a smart business suit, looking just like a queen.

She turned her head to look at me, and even sitting down, her powerful aura was suffocating. Her gaze was cold as she stared at me, as if I were fish on her chopping board.

"How did you get in here? I'm talking business, get out!"

Secretary Li stood behind me, saying nervously, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I couldn't stop him."

He grabbed my arm, but not too tightly. "Sir, let's go out first."

I shook off his hand and looked at Jiang Yuwei's inherent noble air and her face that was as beautiful as an angel. Her expression was calm and elegant, as if she wasn't the one who forced me to come.

My anger was rising, and I walked a few steps to Jiang Yuwei, picked up the iced coffee on the table, and splashed it hard in her face.

Instantly, Jiang Yuwei's face, neck, and hair were covered in coffee stains, making her look extremely disheveled.

The partners were stunned, staring at me with wide eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.

Secretary Li also gasped, "President Jiang..."

Only Jiang Yuwei remained expressionless on her beautiful face, seemingly not angry. She calmly looked at her partner and smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Sun, let's schedule another time to discuss our cooperation in detail another day, is that alright with you?"

Mr. Sun hurriedly stood up, smiling ingratiatingly, and said, "Of course, of course, Mr. Jiang, please go ahead with your work. We'll talk later."

Secretary Li tactfully stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sun, let me see you off."

After the two left, Secretary Li thoughtfully closed the door.

Jiang Yuwei sat lazily on the sofa, looking at me with deep, cold eyes, emanating an oppressive aura.

"Are you here to throw a tantrum like a spoiled young master? Apologize to me and wipe it off for me."

Even though she was sitting, I felt as if she were looking down at me. Faced with her powerful presence, I actually felt inferior to her.

I gave a cold laugh and put the coffee cup back on the table.

"Apologize? You should be apologizing to me! I'm throwing a tantrum? It's clearly you, my little princess and fairy, who's throwing a tantrum! Does the whole world have to revolve around you? The slightest thing doesn't go my way, and you cut off my path, bribe my lawyer, and even try to ruin my career?"

Jiang Yuwei, are you even human?
