The night Chi Yuan and Qi Wang consummated their relationship, Qi Wang, as an illegitimate child, had just been acknowledged by the Qi family.
At that time, the Chi family was at its peak, an...
Chapter 32 It’s Not for Free
Since they are getting a divorce, why should he pick up a gift that was just thrown into the trash?
The two were arguing with each other just a second ago, but now they are explaining things in detail.
Chi Yuan just stood there in a daze, and his anger dissipated unknowingly.
"Whatever you want to do after the divorce is none of my business."
By then, she would not be in a position to interfere even if she wanted to.
Qi Wang raised his eyebrows slightly: "You'd better keep thinking so."
Chi Yuan finally stayed.
Photos of Qi Wang being intimate with another woman were publicly released. Someone must be keeping an eye on the Qi and Chi families recently. If she really returns to the Chi family at this critical juncture, it will definitely be used by someone with ulterior motives to make a big fuss.
The news of the divorce spread, but the people in the Qi family were not easy to deal with.
It’s not the time to make it public yet.
When he went to work at the club again, Chi Yuan resigned again.
The reason this time is that it is inconvenient to disclose due to family reasons.
The manager was puzzled by her reason for resigning: "Ms. Chi, I'm afraid this is not easy to approve."
Chi Yuan was confident: "Don't worry, tell Mr. Qi the reason, he will understand."
Considering all aspects, she is not suitable to stay and work in the club, otherwise she will be exposed sooner or later.
Of course, Chi Yuan still worked hard on the day he resigned.
When she got off work, the manager informed her of the result and her superiors agreed to her resignation.
Maybe Qi Wang was waiting for her to do this.
After leaving the club, Chi Yuan came to the side of the road as usual.
Qi Wang was already waiting for her.
"If you leave the club now, I will not provide funding to help the Chi family if anything happens in the future."
After getting in the car, Chi Yuan heard the man say this and couldn't help laughing.
"So what you mean is that if I don't resign, you will help the Chi family if anything happens in the future?"
Obviously impossible.
Her deal with Qi Wang was originally a one-time deal.
"You don't need my help." Qi Wang said nonchalantly, "The club has high profits and makes money quickly. If you work for a few years, as long as your parents don't give up, you can still pay off the debt."
Chi Yuan was too lazy to argue with him and simply said, "Then I'll talk to the manager again. I'll go work for him when I'm free. More money is never a bad thing."
On the one hand, he forced her to live with him to prevent Mr. Qi from noticing anything unusual, and at the same time he wanted her to continue working at the club.
Is he sure he isn't contradicting himself?
Qi Wang chuckled and said, "Don't even think about going back after you quit your job. It wouldn't be bad for you to be a full-time housewife for a while."
Full-time housewife?
Chi Yuan was somewhat unfamiliar with this word.
In the past four years, even though she got married and stopped working, she has never been a full-time housewife in the true sense of the word.
Seeing the mockery in the man's eyes, Chi Yuan snorted coldly.
"Don't even think about it!"
She shouldn't have been delayed by marriage.
What's more... the Chi family also needs her now.
Qi Wang didn't say anything else and drove towards Guibai Road.
There might never be another night when he would pick up a woman from get off work.
After resigning, Chi Yuan was not idle. She took advantage of Qi Wang's time at work to sort out some past information.
She was not an idle person in the past, but later she fell in love and put her career aside.
It should still be time to sort things out and start over.
Just at this time, Chi Yuan received an invitation from Bai Qingcheng.
"The Love Bar has added new items. Let's go try them. It's perfect. We haven't had a good chat about it since we returned home."
When he received the invitation, Chi Yuan was still a little unresponsive.
Thinking back on everything that has happened recently, it seems to be just as she said. We haven't been able to have a good chat since she returned to China.
"Okay, call your brother along, I'll buy you a drink."
Just consider it as a thank you.
Bai Qingcheng immediately refused: "Why call him? We sisters are just talking in private, so we don't want to bring him along!"
After the land incident, Chi Yuan never bothered him alone again.
I heard from Bai Qingcheng that now that Mr. Bai has handed over some important tasks of the Bai Group to him, he is much busier than when he first returned to China.
It’s better not to bother you.
Chi Yuan agreed immediately.
The bar opened at three in the afternoon, and the two of them agreed to meet at the bar entrance for dinner. Chi Yuan filled his stomach a little and then went out.
Subconsciously, she wanted to tell Qi Wang about this.
But why should I report to him what I do?
It's just a marriage in name only, and he shouldn't be the one making everything happen.
When she arrived at the bar, Bai Qingcheng was already waiting for her at the door.
"Come on! I can't wait!"
Bai Qingcheng almost rushed into the bar.
Chi Yuan smiled helplessly, which reminded her of some interesting past events.
Who would have thought that Bai Qingcheng, who looked innocent and lovely, was actually half an alcoholic? And she didn't get drunk easily.
When he arrived at the bar, Chi Yuan just ordered a non-alcoholic drink.
Bai Qingcheng curled her lips and said, "Since we're already at the bar, we should at least order something with alcohol. Nothing will go wrong if it's under ten degrees."
"I won't drink anymore. Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years." Chi Yuan smiled and shook his head: "But who knows, after Qi Wang and I are divorced, maybe I will dare to drink again."
"So what are your plans?" Bai Qingcheng sipped the wine lightly. "If we don't consider the emotional factor, Qi Wang might be a good marriage partner."
"But benefits don't come for free. You have to give something in exchange."
The bubbles melt in the mouth, and the sour taste of lemon rushes into every corner of the mouth.
"Besides, I don't want to see Qi Ye."
After such a long time, this was the first time Chi Yuan called out that person's name so directly.
When Qi Ye was mentioned, Bai Qingcheng was silent for a long time.
"You haven't let him go yet? I heard that he's going back to China soon. You want to divorce Qi Wang, don't you want to reconcile with him?"
Chi Yuan immediately shook his head: "What are you thinking? Not to mention that it's impossible for him and I to get back together, it's impossible for us to get back together!"
Just because something was strange back then doesn't mean she was completely unaware of it.
Qi Ye was not implicated, but instead he was the biggest beneficiary.
"I just don't want to see him again. If I don't break off my relationship with Qi Wang, dealing with him is inevitable."
Bai Qingcheng frowned, "That's not right. Divorcing Qi Wang means I don't want to have to deal with Qi Ye. What's wrong with you, Yuanyuan?"
“…”
Chi Yuan was speechless for a moment.
The lights in the bar were dim, and she only ordered a glass of non-alcoholic champagne, but she felt drunk.
"It's my bad luck to have messed with the Qi family." Chi Yuan picked up the goblet and raised it to Bai Qingcheng: "Okay, don't worry. Since we are here to taste wine tonight, let's not talk about these unpleasant things."
The wine glasses clinked together, but the worries were not resolved, but buried deep in the heart.
Chi Yuan stopped drinking.
The non-alcoholic champagne didn't make her drunk, but it did make her feel sleepy.
She supported her forehead with one hand, and a glass of wine appeared in front of her.
It wasn’t given to her by Bai Qingcheng.
"Ladies, how about a few drinks together?"
Chi Yuan thought to himself that something was wrong.
How can I still meet a creepy man?
