After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

I lowered my head and gripped the hem of my clothes tightly.

A sour feeling surged into my chest, and I felt suffocated.

He truly loved Lin Nan, so much so that he protected her at all costs.

A few tears welled up in the corners of my eyes. I looked up slightly, forcibly holding back my tears, and met his gaze.

"Fine, let's go to court then. Who's afraid of who?"

But as soon as I said that, I regretted it.

After all, Jiang Yichen's powerful legal department is not something I can defeat single-handedly.

The most ridiculous thing is that I don't even have the money to hire a lawyer.

But I'm not willing to back down in front of them.

Seeing that I had agreed, a smug look flashed across Lin Nan's face, as if victory was already in her grasp.

“Gu Mo, it’s not too late for you to admit your mistake and apologize now. If you wait until you lose the case and are forced to comply, you’ll lose face big time.”

Anyway, they won't believe anything I say now, so why should I act like a clown and act all timid and subservient?

"I won't lose, you just wait and see."

Not wanting them to see my weakness, I pretended to be calm and left the Jiang family.

Once I was outside, I finally relaxed and hid in a corner not far away.

I'm destined to lose this lawsuit; they won't let me off the hook.

But once those grand ambitions have been made, there's no reason to take them back.

Even if we were to admit defeat, it shouldn't be at this time.

The thought of suing Jiang Yichen keeps me up at night.

But to my surprise, the traffic in my live stream actually increased.

When netizens heard that I was going to sue Jiang Yichen, they all came to watch the spectacle.

"Jiang Yichen is going to sue his ex-wife? Gu Mo must be crazy to dare offend him?"

"She still thinks she's the daughter of the Gu family. Jiang Yichen definitely won't let her off this time."

"I heard that Jiang Yichen's fiancée sent a lawyer's letter to Gu Mo. This is going to be interesting."

The words were getting increasingly harsh.

I looked down at the comments on the screen, my eyes stinging and my heart aching slightly.

Now, the whole of Tongcheng is laughing at me.

Just then, I suddenly realized that the live stream had tens of thousands of viewers.

I never expected that my lawsuit with Jiang Yichen would attract such a high level of attention.

I was overjoyed and quickly started interacting with netizens, gradually recounting my experience of visiting the restaurant.

This is a rare opportunity.

Whether we can win the lawsuit is uncertain, but we can't let this opportunity to make money slip by.

Not long after, a fan on the platform sent me a private message.

I initially thought it was harassment and didn't intend to pay attention to it, but for a moment, I actually saw two words.

lawyer.

My eyes lit up, and I immediately clicked into his chat box to carefully read his private messages.

He said his name was Qin Lei, that he had been following me for a long time and really liked my live stream content. After learning about my situation, he offered to help me with the lawsuit, and he wouldn't charge me anything.

Free legal counsel delivered to your door!

Thank God there are still good people in this world!

Suddenly, hope returned to my heart.

I quickly edited my reply.

Unexpectedly, he replied instantly.

We hit it off immediately and arranged to meet that evening to discuss it in detail.

With Qin Lei's appearance, my anxiety did lessen somewhat.

At least for now, I am not fighting alone.

As soon as we met, Qin Lei showed me his lawyer's license.

Seeing the date on his license, I realized he was a new lawyer.

For some reason, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Perhaps sensing my concerns, he said warmly, "Miss Gu, don't worry, I will help you win the case."

He exuded a youthful innocence, and I didn't know whether I should trust him or not.

Qin Lei is a good talker, and after several rounds of discussion, I finally chose to believe him.

In the following days, we met frequently. His words were very professional, and I gradually gained confidence, feeling that I would definitely win the case.

But reality dealt me ​​a heavy blow.

In court, Qin Lei was unable to utter a single word in response to the rebuttals.

If he could say something convincing, I would feel a little better.

But in front of Jiang Yichen's lawyer, he seemed listless and lifeless.

In our first battle, we both suffered a crushing defeat, completely overwhelmed and unable to fight back.

Afterwards, we waited for our ride home in front of the courthouse.

I couldn't help but suspect Qin Lei, and said half-jokingly, "You wouldn't happen to be an undercover agent sent by Jiang Yichen, would you?"

Before Qin Lei could answer, a discordant voice came from behind me.

"Gu Mo, I wouldn't stoop to such a despicable tactic."

Jiang Yichen's face was expressionless; he stood not far away, quietly watching me.

The person who was sneaking around with crickets was caught red-handed by the person in question.

I was so embarrassed I just wanted to crawl into a hole.

In this battle, I clearly realized that I had absolutely no chance of winning.

I steeled myself and walked over, speaking in a consultative tone.

"Let's talk this over. Can you drop the charges?"

Jiang Yichen chuckled lightly and said casually, "You can withdraw the lawsuit, but you have to admit that your assessment is untrue."

He's hit my weak spot.

But no matter what, I will never admit that my assessment was wrong.

I looked up at him, my voice unusually firm.

"I can't do that. Every word I say is the truth."

Perhaps expecting me to refuse, Jiang Yichen was not surprised at all.

"In that case, see you in the second trial."

Seeing the tension between us, Qin Lei simply told me to go find reinforcements and then disappeared.

I increasingly regret my impulsive decision.

Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back; I have no choice but to go down this path to the bitter end.

However, things soon took a turn for the better.

A few days later, Jiang Yichen suddenly withdrew the lawsuit and publicly posted on Weibo that he would strengthen the management of his hotels and make improvements. He even invited me to give a new review.

As soon as this incident occurred, public opinion immediately changed.

Jiang Yichen offered a way out, and I had no reason not to give him face, so I quickly agreed.

Instantly, my number of followers on the platform skyrocketed, and I even made it to the top of the headlines.

But most people are just watching me with a "let's have a good show" attitude.

After all, everyone was wondering what kind of ability I had that could make Jiang Yichen bow his head and take the initiative to ask for improvement.

To capitalize on this surge in traffic, I did several more live streams, vaguely discussing the hotel's aftermath.

Are Gu Mo and Jiang Yichen back together?

Jiang Yichen is suspected of pursuing his ex-wife...

[Will Jiang Yichen choose his fiancée or his ex-wife?]

The trending search terms on the platform are all about me and Jiang Yichen.

But the more I look at it, the more outrageous it seems?

This matter caused quite a stir in the city.

Even my parents called to ask if I was getting back together with Jiang Yichen.

Getting back together is, of course, impossible. I'm already incredibly grateful that he didn't retaliate against me.

Soon, Jiang Yichen extended an invitation to me.

They want me to revisit the hotel as a reviewer and give a fair and impartial evaluation of the improvements made.

I readily agreed.

To my surprise, when I visited Jiang Yichen's hotel again, it wasn't a waiter who greeted me, but Jiang Yichen himself.

This made me feel flattered, but at the same time, I also felt a little uneasy.

I always felt that things weren't that simple.
