Chapter 005: The Scheming Little White Lotus
Jiang Qianhui's face turned ugly; she didn't believe Zhan Yanxun was joking with her.
If she angered him, he would really wipe out the entire Jiang family.
She is not yet strong enough to contend with him.
Having been given a second chance at life, she cannot allow the Jiang family to repeat the same mistakes.
Judging by the timeline, it will only be about six months before he asks Qiao Weiwei for a divorce.
She refused, but he was even willing to compensate Qiao Weiwei with 30% of the shares in the Zhan Group.
This is the best I can do to make it up to her.
However, she did not back down because of the exorbitant compensation; instead, she was even more furious that Zhan Yanxun could go to such lengths for Qiao Weiwei.
He would be willing to hand over the Zhan Group even if it meant giving it away.
What does all her years of dedication amount to? She can't swallow this insult; she'll fight to the death.
That's what led to the destruction of his family and the death of his loved ones.
Having been given a second chance at life, she would never fall in love with him again.
"I just want to give up. Love in this world can't be forced. I'm tired, I don't want it anymore, and I can't afford it anymore."
Jiang Qianhui looked at Zhan Yanxun calmly, and the calmness and desolation in her eyes made Zhan Yanxun feel inexplicably agitated.
This bright and cheerful woman was always by his side, using every little trick in the book to please him.
Why is there suddenly no light in my eyes?
Did he do something wrong?
Zhan Yanxun released his grip on her hands.
"I won't love you, but... even if the fruit I pick is bitter, I have to eat it."
Zhan Yanxun would not allow her to divorce him. Divorce? He had never even considered it.
Jiang Qianhui found it inexplicably ridiculous.
She wanted to divorce him, but he refused.
"Zhan Yanxun, do you believe it? You'll regret not divorcing me now."
She wants a divorce now; she doesn't want the money.
If they want to divorce her in the future, they'll have to hand over half of the Zhan family's empire.
Hearing Jiang Qianhui bring up the word "divorce" again, Zhan Yanxun felt extremely agitated.
“I will not regret that you are the most suitable candidate for Lady Zhan. As for you, I don’t care what your reasons are, if you dare to say those two words again, terminate all cooperation with the Jiang family right now. I want to see if your Jiang family can bear it.”
Jiang Qianhui sighed softly. This person is really stubborn.
"You're so proud and arrogant, how can you accept being divorced? I won't say anything more, I'll wait for you to bring it up again. Remember to offer better terms next time, and I'll sign immediately. Hesitating for even a second is disrespectful to money!"
Zhan Yanxun's forehead throbbed. So, this woman didn't hear what he just said?
Zhan Yanxun's face was terribly gloomy when suddenly his phone rang.
In her previous life, it was on her carefully prepared wedding anniversary that Qiao Weiwei called Zhan Yanxun away.
In this life, it was in a car. She could hear Qiao Weiwei's beautiful yet fearful voice.
"President Zhan, I know I shouldn't trouble you. But I have no other choice. My grandmother is in the hospital undergoing emergency treatment. I have no relatives. Could you come over?"
The sound of a woman sobbing was as alluring as a cat's paw.
"Wait here, I'll be right there."
Jiang Qianhui scoffed coldly, her eyes filled with even deeper chill.
She concealed her disdain and gently parted her lips.
"President Zhan, you really care about your subordinates. I'll take a taxi home myself, so it won't stop you from playing the hero."
Reborn, she no longer gets angry.
May they, the scumbag woman and the dog, live happily ever after!
Jiang Qianhui had just opened the car door when she was pulled back by an external force.
……
Hospital
Outside the emergency room, Qiao Weiwei was crying her eyes out, a pitiful sight.
As soon as Zhan Yanxun appeared, Qiao Weiwei rushed up and hugged him.
"President Zhan, my grandmother has fainted and is currently in the emergency room. She's my only family member. What will I do if she passes away?"
Qiao Weiwei is young and beautiful, and her crying conveys a strong sense of heartbreak.
Jiang Qianhui's eyes were filled with cold disdain. In her previous life, she hadn't looked at her closely, but in this life, she found this pitiful little white flower to be exceptionally beautiful.
No wonder she was able to win Zhan Yanxun's heart later on.
She was just being mournful a little too early.
After all, in her previous life, Qiao Weiwei's grandmother was so smug at their wedding that she lived a long life.
"Qiao Weiwei, don't you know that President Zhan is a germaphobe? You cried and snotted all over his million-dollar suit, can you afford to pay for it?"
Qiao Weiwei saw Jiang Qianhui and reluctantly let go of Zhan Yanxun. She said pitifully, "Assistant Jiang, I'm sorry. I was too grief-stricken, which is why I lost my composure. Please don't misunderstand, President Zhan came to help me out of pity. There's nothing between us."
Zhan Yanxun frowned, his voice tinged with a hint of anger.
"Jiang Qianhui, it's one thing for you to make things difficult for her at work. But now that her grandmother is critically ill, can't you just shut up?"
Jiang Qianhui chuckled. So you're protecting her already?
She didn't want to come; who dragged her here?
Jiang Qianhui ignored Zhan Yanxun and instead looked at Qiao Weiwei with cold disdain.
"If you don't want people to misunderstand, then don't do things that will cause misunderstandings. Even if your grandmother is dying, what kind of behavior is it if you hug someone else's husband and cry?"
"Assistant Jiang, I'm sorry. It's my fault, it's all my fault."
Qiao Wei apologized timidly, her eyes lowered and she didn't even dare to look at Jiang Qianhui, like a mouse that had been bullied for a long time seeing a cat.
Jiang Qianhui laughed, a deep sense of mockery appearing in her eyes.
"At the company, you call me Assistant Jiang. Now that we're not at the company, you should call me Mrs. Zhan."
Zhan Yanxun frowned, his eyes growing increasingly sharp.
"Jiang Qianhui, why do you have to bully her? She has a tragic past, yet she is indomitable, optimistic, and ambitious. Why do you have to suppress her!"
In her previous life, Qiao Weiwei applied for a jewelry designer position at the company, only to discover that she had falsified her academic credentials.
Despite only having a high school diploma, he forged a claim that he graduated from University A.
She kicked him out on the spot, but little did she expect that not long after...
Zhan Yanxun, however, made an exception and admitted her because of her design drawings.
Zhan Yanxun is a man of great principle, but he made an exception for her.
The company was rife with rumors about her, and her employees laughed at her behind her back.
How could she tolerate such humiliation? Enraged, she began to target and suppress her, but Zhan Yanxun always protected her.
Especially on their wedding anniversary, he stayed with Qiao Weiwei all night, which further deepened their relationship.
She went on a rampage of criticism, becoming completely absorbed and unable to extricate herself.
Seeing Zhan Yanxun accusing Jiang Qianhui, Qiao Weiwei tried to reconcile them with a pitiful expression.
“Madam, my parents are both dead. I have been an orphan since I was a child. Now that my grandmother is in trouble, I can’t find anyone to help me. The only person I can think of is President Zhan. I’m sorry that you have misunderstood.”
Jiang Qianhui scoffed, "Playing the victim?"
She accepted them all.
Jiang Qianhui pursed her lips slightly, a hint of warmth overflowing from her half-curved eyes.
"Oh, I never imagined your background was so tragic. If I had known you were so pitiful, I wouldn't have made things difficult for you. If your grandmother had gotten into trouble, you could have told me, and I would have helped you too."
