Qiao Zhinuan opened her eyes wide.

Qiao Zhiyu's voice came through: "Zhi Nuan, your sister-in-law just gave birth, why are you making her angry?"

"It was her! She's the one who dirtied my clothes first! Oh, and she even cursed you to die!"

Qiao Zhinuan angrily snatched her phone and said a few words. Soon, a happy expression appeared on her face, and she threw the phone to Tang Xia: "Forget it, I won't hold it against you for my brother's sake!"

Tang Xia knew that Qiao Zhiyu must have promised to compensate her for the dress.

Sure enough, her phone rang within two seconds. She opened it, glanced at it, gave Tang Xia a smug look, and walked away triumphantly.

Tang Xia picked up her phone and asked coldly, "Did you give her money?"

Qiao Zhiyu said impatiently, "Zhi Nuan has a childish temper, don't argue with her. I'll give her five thousand to buy a dress."

Tang Xia hung up the phone decisively.

Qiao Zhiyu earns 20,000 yuan a month and gives 5,000 yuan to his family. Later, when his child needed more money for medical treatment, he would make various excuses and refuse to pay a penny. However, he was very generous when it came to spending money on his parents, sister, and Lin Yiyue.

In her previous life, she was married for three years but never knew his financial situation.

In this life, she has finally seen through the true colors of the scumbag.

Once she's discharged from the hospital, she'll begin the divorce proceedings, but before that, she needs to thoroughly investigate all of his assets. She not only wants a share of the property, but she also wants this family that has bullied her for years to pay the price!

Tang Xia's gaze inadvertently fell on the table next to her, where a black business card was placed. Tang Xia hesitated for a moment, then picked it up.

The business card is made of some unknown material; it has a metallic feel. The printed text on it is strange; it doesn't include a company name or job title, only a name and a number.

"Jin Xinghan...who exactly are you?"

Why did that strange man say he was Nian Nian's biological father?

This thing is so strange.

Tang Xia closed her eyes and carefully searched her memory for the name, but quickly shook her head gently.

She really didn't know this person.

But for some reason, she always felt that the person's profile looked familiar.

Tang Xia recovered quickly after her natural birth, while Niannian had to stay in the neonatal intensive care unit for a while. Fortunately, Tang Xia had survived before and knew that Niannian would stay there for half a month until she recovered enough to take her home.

And she could use this time to take care of everything that needed to be done.

Tang Xia stayed in the hospital for three days and was preparing to go home. Qiao Zhiyu offered to help her pack. When Tang Xia reached for the water glass that was placed by the window, Qiao Zhiyu suddenly hugged her from behind.

Tang Xia froze, then heard Qiao Zhiyu take a deep breath on her neck, and almost vomited: "Wife, this is great! We haven't been together for so long since you got pregnant. Now that you've finally given birth, we can..."

Tang Xia turned around, *slap!*

Qiao Zhiyu covered her face in disbelief: "Why did you hit me!"

Is this woman crazy? She splashed water on him a few days ago, and now she's slapping him?

Tang Xia's robotic voice said coldly, "My maternal instincts are overflowing right now. I feel disgusted whenever I hear anything related to sexual pleasure. Don't say it again, or you'll feel ashamed."

"You! You're completely unreasonable right now!"

A cell phone rang, and Qiao Zhiyu took out his phone and glanced at it. A look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

He didn't answer the phone. Instead, he threw Tang Xia's things on the bed and said angrily, "I have surgery to do. You can take a taxi home yourself."

Tang Xia remembered that in her previous life, although Qiao Zhiyu received the call, he still sent her back in the end.

After arriving home, he even washed his hands and cooked soup for her, but she didn't get to drink the soup in the end because Lin Yiyue called and said that she had just returned to China, had been on a plane all day, hadn't eaten dinner, and was feeling very hungry. So he took a thermos and carefully delivered it to Lin Yiyue.

In this life, Lin Yiyue made the call too early.

I guess they won't need to send soup; they'll just go out for a meal.

Tang Xia didn't care. She took her things, visited Niannian in the neonatal ICU for a while, and then planned to go home.

I left the hospital and stood by the roadside to hail a taxi.

A low-key black luxury car stopped in front of her. The door opened, and the person sitting inside was none other than Jin Xinghan!

The man nodded to her, indicating, "Get in the car."

Tang Xia nervously took two steps back.

After their first meeting, the man didn't show up for three days, and the business card disappeared without a trace. Tang Xia even thought that what happened that day was a dream.

Seeing that she was retreating instead of advancing, Jin Xinghan raised his long eyebrows: "Afraid of being kidnapped by me?"

Tang Xia nodded emphatically.

Jin Xinghan paused for two seconds, then lifted his suit jacket, took something from his waist, and tossed it to Tang Xia. Tang Xia caught it instinctively; it was a small, folding dagger. Jin Xinghan looked at her and said, "Can we get in the car now?"

So he meant that she would feel at ease if she had a dagger?

Are you kidding me? If someone carrying a dagger invites you to get in their car, who would dare to get in?

Tang Xia decisively turned around and left. Jin Xinghan frowned and signaled the driver to reverse and slowly follow behind her: "I've been waiting for you for three days. My patience is limited. Get in the car."

"Tang Xia, do you really want to be kidnapped by me?"

Threatening people when persuasion fails—what a scumbag!

Tang Xia glared at him, opened the car door and got in. She knew this man was clinging to her today. If she didn't get in the car, he might really kidnap her on the spot. Besides, she really wanted to know who he was and what he wanted.

After Tang Xia got into the car, she sat far away from the man, looking out the window warily, trying to figure out the way: "Where are you taking me?"

"A place that makes you feel absolutely safe."

Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a skyscraper. Tang Xia stared in shock at the towering rooftop. "This is the place you described that I would consider absolutely safe?"

"Yes, get out of the car and come in with me."

"But this is the Huanyu Group! Not just anyone can come in!"

“I know, this is my company.”

Under Tang Xia's shocked gaze, Jin Xinghan got out of the car, walked around to the other side, and opened the car door for her.

The driver was trembling with fear. Good heavens, the CEO himself got out of the car to open the door. Did that mean he was about to be fired?

however……

Tang Xia didn't get out of the car; she was frantically scrolling through her phone.

At this moment, she finally knew who this man was! Jin Xinghan, the president of Huanyu Group and the newly crowned richest man in S City!

She would use her phone when she was bored on weekdays.

Her phone was constantly pushing news updates and he was always trending on social media, but most of the time, the news and trending topics only referred to him as President Jin or Young Master Jin. They rarely dared to call him by his full name, which is why she didn't recognize him by his name right away.

Speaking of which, when Tang Xia first graduated from university, she even submitted her resume to Huanyu Group and was fortunate enough to be accepted. Unfortunately, she didn't go because of Qiao Zhiyu's opposition, which has been her regret ever since.

Tang Xia took a deep breath, got out of the car, and then followed Jin Xinghan into the Huanyu Group.
