After going bankrupt, the school beauty I was dating became my boss.

After putting their luggage away, Zhao Xu and the others joined Tianyi's barbecue party. Although they were all employees of Changfeng Group, when people are out having fun, they don't care about their job titles. They were all around the same age and quickly became friends.

Gu Yannian, who had been listless just moments before, was now bursting with energy, rolling up her sleeves and bustling around in front of the barbecue grill, immediately bringing the cooked food to Su Yanxi's side. Su Yanxi sat at the table, admiring Gu Yannian's display of skill, which resembled a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

"As the chairman of the group, to abandon work and chase after a man for an excuse. If the people below find out, I wonder what they will say."

A sarcastic remark rang out from the side, drawing Su Yanxi's attention away from Gu Yannian. Su Yanxi turned her head and saw that Wang Jiaojiao had somehow ended up sitting opposite her.

Seeing Su Yanxi turn her head, Wang Jiaojiao gave her a smile. To others, the smile seemed normal, but to Su Yanxi, it was a clear provocation.

"What? Tianyi can have team building activities, but Changfeng can't?"

Facing Wang Jiaojiao's mockery, Su Yanxi was not afraid at all: "We all chose the same place, what's so strange about that? Even if I came here on purpose, what can you do about it?"

Do you want to go back and complain? Even elementary school students know to go to the teacher when something happens, so why do you always go home to your mom?

Su Yanxi had previously found it strange that Mrs. Ye had been targeting her, but after checking, she learned that Mrs. Ye's name was Ye Sha, and she was Wang Jiaojiao's mother. This explained why Mrs. Ye had been targeting her.

Upon hearing Su Yanxi's words, a hint of resentment flashed in Wang Jiaojiao's eyes, but she still refused to admit it: "What are you saying? I don't understand."

"Whether you don't understand or are pretending not to understand, I think you should know the answer in your heart. I don't care what you and your mother said, I don't want things like what happened before to happen again. If there is a next time, I won't let you off the hook."

Su Yanxi spoke indifferently. Even if the Wang family was powerful, she wasn't afraid if it really came down to a fight. And even if she ended up with nothing, she could still severely damage the Wang family before that.

Seeing that Su Yanxi already knew about Ye Sha's situation, Wang Jiaojiao no longer concealed anything. Hearing Su Yanxi's harsh words, Wang Jiaojiao scoffed, "Anyone can talk tough. If you were so capable, you wouldn't be groveling before Mrs. Li."

Also, I can say whatever I want to my mom. She's willing to stand up for me because she's my mom. What about you? Oh, I forgot, you don't have a mom or a dad!

Su Yanxi's expression changed instantly. Her mother had passed away when she was very young. She and her father had always relied on each other. Later, when she was in college, her father became seriously ill. He urgently needed surgery but couldn't afford it, which was why she agreed to Gu Yannian's arrangement to be her sugar daddy.

Although she had the money for surgery, her father's condition was too serious, and he passed away the year after Gu Yannian left.

Wang Jiaojiao knew about this, which is why she deliberately stabbed her in the most painful spot in her heart!

Seeing that Su Yanxi was speechless, Wang Jiaojiao was very smug: "What? I hit the nail on the head, and now you can't speak?"

“My parents are indeed gone, but even if they were still alive, I wouldn’t bother them with this kind of thing or ask them to stand up for me. What they should be doing is enjoying life, not helping me deal with my love rival.”

Oh, I forgot, I'm not your rival in love, because Gu Yannian has never liked you!

Su Yanxi mimicked Wang Jiaojiao's tone and retorted with a sneer.

Sure enough, Wang Jiaojiao's expression changed after hearing Su Yanxi's answer.

The thing Wang Jiaojiao least wanted to admit was that Gu Yannian had never liked her! Even though she was the first person to meet Gu Yannian, and even though she spent the most time with him, Gu Yannian just didn't like her!

"Su Yanxi, don't be so smug! One day, I will personally remove your mask in front of Brother Yan Nian and let him see your true colors. Then, I'll see if Brother Yan Nian will still like you!"

"Wang Jiaojiao, if you're really that confident, don't wait until later. You can go to Gu Yannian now and do whatever you want."

"What? You don't dare? Well, that makes sense. You only dare to yell at me, how could you dare cause trouble in front of Gu Yannian? You're probably afraid of ruining your obedient and sensible image in Gu Yannian's mind!"

As the saying goes, "Strike the snake at its vital spot," and Su Yanxi knew very well what Wang Jiaojiao's weakness was.

Wang Jiaojiao couldn't hold back any longer and stood up, ready to unleash a torrent of abuse on Su Yanxi. Just then, Gu Yannian walked over: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Su Yanxi didn't answer, but just looked at Wang Jiaojiao quietly. Wang Jiaojiao cursed Su Yanxi for being shameless in her heart, but didn't show it on her face. She turned around and smiled at Gu Yannian: "It's nothing. I haven't seen Yanxi for a long time. I'm chatting with her."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yannian's suspicious gaze shifted between Su Yanxi and Wang Jiaojiao.

He had been grilling food nearby, and although he hadn't heard what Su Yanxi and Wang Jiaojiao were saying, the atmosphere between them seemed strange. Worried, he quickly brought the grilled food over.

As if she had already anticipated Wang Jiaojiao's answer, Su Yanxi didn't expose her. Instead, she continued, "Yes, Wang Jiaojiao and I haven't seen each other in a long time, so we chatted for a bit. What delicious food did you bake this time?"

Since Su Yanxi and Wang Jiaojiao had both said so, Gu Yannian didn't press the matter further. She smiled and put down the plate in her hand: "This is the fish I just grilled. The people at the farm said it tastes very good and has few bones. You should try it."

"Okay."

Su Yanxi picked up chopsticks and began to share the fish with Gu Yannian. During this time, Su Yanxi also invited Wang Jiaojiao to eat with them.

How could Wang Jiaojiao possibly accept this? Just watching Su Yanxi and Gu Yannian exchanging glances made her furious. Su Yanxi's invitation was utterly disgusting to her. But with Gu Yannian present, she couldn't retaliate!

Wang Jiaojiao gave Su Yanxi a forced smile and told her to eat slowly before leaving alone.

Watching Wang Jiaojiao's departing figure, Su Yanxi shook her head slightly. After all these years, Wang Jiaojiao really hasn't changed at all.

Having lived a high and mighty life for too long, she wants everyone to submit to her.

How is this possible?
