On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

Su Chenxi had been holding back for a long time, but now she couldn't hold back any longer. She gritted her teeth and said, "Jiang Yao, your request is too much. I won't do anything without a bottom line."

Jiang Yao scoffed, "Anyway, you're a person without any principles. Haven't you lived such a pathetic life since you were a child?"

Su Chenxi took a deep breath, a strong feeling of grievance welling up inside her. Yes, she had grown up in such a pathetic state, but it still hurt her deeply to hear Jiang Yao say it so directly.

“Yes, I was raised by your father, and I will repay the Jiang family for their kindness, but I cannot do what you are asking.” Su Chenxi firmly rejected this unreasonable request.

“You’re having an ambiguous relationship with that Gu Heting, aren’t you? If you sleep with him and Shen Yanchuan catches you in the act, he can dump you and marry me. That would be like you repaying the Jiang family for their kindness.” Jiang Yao stared intently at her.

Su Chenxi turned around and refused, "I won't hurt anyone. If you want to take back your position, have your dad go to Grandma Shen. I will also cooperate with you to get a divorce. Now, whether you want to come work for me or not is up to you."

Su Chenxi pressed the intercom and said to Mo Mi, "Please come in and ask Miss Jiang to leave."

Jiang Yao stomped her foot and said, "I'm willing to work here."

She needs to find a way to stay by Su Chenxi's side and seize the opportunity to make her cheat on him. Only in this way will Shen Yanchuan dump her. Then her father can go and beg Old Madam Shen, and her chances of marrying into the Shen family will be even greater.

Jiang Yao went to complete the onboarding process. Su Chenxi looked at her email; she had a ton of things to do and didn't have time to think about anything else. Just then, a message came through on her phone.

"Let's have lunch together," Shen Yanchuan texted.

"You're back in China?" Su Chenxi replied.

"You don't care about me, your husband, at all, do you?"

In the quiet conference room, the man in the chief seat was typing with both hands. The blue light from the screen shone on his face, making his handsome face look serious, his brows furrowed, as if he were dealing with something very important. However, he was just taking the opportunity to send a text message to his wife.

“I trust you completely, I won’t be henpecked,” Su Chenxi replied.

Shen Yanchuan's thin lips curled slightly. "Remember to book a restaurant." He put down his phone, then raised his gaze again, his sharp, eagle-like eyes sweeping across the entire conference room, like a king surveying a battlefield.

Jiang Yao went downstairs to visit the jewelry gallery. Her eyes widened. She was a jewelry enthusiast, and she fell in love with every piece she saw, even though the collection was worth over 100 million yuan.

"Who can borrow these jewels to wear?" she asked.

"The process for borrowing jewelry is very strict; the company will not lend jewelry to people who do not have a certain status or position."

"What about the Shen family?" Jiang Yao couldn't help but ask.

"Are you talking about the second young mistress?" the staff member asked with a smile.

"Correct."

"Of course, the second young mistress can wear whatever she wants. Whenever she needs to attend an important occasion, she can choose any jewelry here."

A fierce glint of jealousy flashed in Jiang Yao's eyes. She was determined to reclaim her rightful identity, and from then on, all the jewels here would belong to her.

Jiang Yao had no desire to sit in the office. She wandered around and before she knew it, it was 11:30.

Jiang Yao was staring blankly at the railing on the second floor of the lobby when she suddenly saw a black sports car appear outside the door. She looked closely and saw a figure that made her heart race step out of the car.

Shen Yanchuan.

Jiang Yao excitedly rushed over to greet her, but at that moment, she saw Su Chenxi appear from the third-floor entrance carrying a bag. Jiang Yao was immediately filled with jealousy. Was Shen Yanchuan here to pick her up?

Su Chenxi didn't see Jiang Yao. She stepped from the second floor to the first floor and saw Shen Yanchuan standing in the lobby waiting for her. She quickly walked towards him.

Su Chenxi's knee was much better, but in the man's eyes, she still thought she didn't know her own strength.

"Why are you running?" the man snapped.

Su Chenxi looked up, looking aggrieved. "Wasn't I afraid you'd get annoyed waiting?"

"I will wait for you," Shen Yanchuan said in a low voice.

Su Chenxi blinked in surprise. This sentence... sounds like a confession of love?

While she was in a daze, the man reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, leading her towards the sports car outside.

Jiang Yao, on the second floor, clearly saw this scene. Her heart ached as if being drilled by an electric drill. What kind of seductive tricks did Su Chenxi use to make Shen Yanchuan like her so much?

She just kept saying she was willing to divorce and give up her position, but secretly she was going to do everything she could to seduce Shen Yanchuan! What a scheming woman.

In the restaurant, Su Chenxi rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought. The man across from her finished ordering, looked at her, and commanded domineeringly, "You're not allowed to think about other men in front of me."

Su Chenxi was speechless and wanted to laugh, "Do you think about women all day long?"

Shen Yanchuan scoffed, "Of course not."

Su Chenxi raised an eyebrow, "Then why do you think I'm always thinking about men?"

"Don't you dream about that guy surnamed Gu all the time?" Shen Yanchuan had evidence.

Su Chenxi choked for a moment, unable to refute. She reached out and stirred her coffee cup, saying, "Do you know? Actually, the Jiang family originally betrothed you to Jiang Yao, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, not me."

Shen Yanchuan held his coffee cup and took an elegant sip. "I know."

Su Chenxi was taken aback. "You knew?"

Shen Yanchuan stared intently at her, "You knew my legs were crippled before you married me, so why were you still willing to marry me?"

Su Chenxi gave a bitter smile. "Would you believe me if I said I was forced into marriage by my mother?"

Shen Yanchuan frowned, "You are free not to marry me."

Su Chenxi puffed out her cheeks. "I didn't want to get married, but my mother forced me to. I had no choice but to become a tool for this political marriage and marry you."

"Is marrying me a hardship?" Shen Yanchuan scoffed.

Su Chenxi narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, "Second Young Master, if you could kindly tear up that supplementary agreement, I would be willing to be your wife for a year."

That agreement is what's making her uneasy and is hindering her path to freedom.

Shen Yanchuan was inwardly annoyed. It seemed that this woman was always ready to escape from him. On the surface, she said it wasn't for the man surnamed Gu, but in reality, she just wanted to be with him as soon as possible.

Shen Yanchuan toyed with the exquisite coffee cup and snorted, "Don't even think about it."

Su Chenxi immediately deflated, cupping her face in her hands and asking, "Why is a supplementary agreement so necessary?"

Shen Yanchuan's cold gaze shot towards her, "To protect my rights and prevent anyone from cheating on me."

He emphasized the word "green hat" heavily, as if he were saying it through gritted teeth.

Su Chenxi awkwardly touched her ear and weakly retorted, "How could that be!"

Just then, the dishes were served. Looking at the exquisite food, Su Chenxi happily picked up her chopsticks, deciding to turn her grief into appetite.

"This is delicious." Su Chenxi picked up a piece and put it on someone's plate in a flattering manner. "Let's eat and not talk about unhappy things."

The man's lips finally curled into a satisfied smile, but soon, when she was by Gu Heting's side, she would probably be a hundred times more attentive to pleasing him than she was now! The corners of his mouth that had just turned up tightened again.
