Chu Wuyang appeared calm on the surface, but her clenched fists betrayed her.

It would be a complete lie to say that I felt no emotional fluctuation.

"Isn't it obvious that it's because of my noble birth?"

Yun Yang's sarcastic remark was perfect for retorting to her.

"Ha, being born into a noble family is indeed impressive, but what is stolen will eventually be stolen back by someone else."

Yun Yang's tone was sarcastic and certain.

Chu Wuyang sneered, ignoring her subsequent words, and got back to the main topic.

"So you're getting revenge on me for making you lose your job, and you've just spilled everything. You want to be Mrs. Jing?"

Yun Yang made no attempt to hide it.

"Yes, if you know what's good for you, you'll step aside. You might have been unaware of the situation before and became the other woman, but now that you know, do you think this proud young lady can tolerate it?"

Yunyang has figured out PUA tactics.

Chu Wuyang turned his head and sneered.

I just realized that people can actually laugh out loud when they're speechless.

"If you expose this, and I go back and make a scene with Jingmin, he'll only hate you more,"

"Even if we really get divorced, he won't be with you. You heard it just now, he seemed to care about me a lot. So wouldn't you be getting nothing in the end?"

Yun Yang's expression suddenly changed, and she abruptly stood up.

The sudden outburst nearly startled the stunned Ye Yuhe, but Chu Wuyang quickly reached out to steady her.

"No, he won't hate me. I just wanted to make him feel a little bad too."

"He blacklisted me because of you. I just wanted to annoy him a little, to cause him a little trouble. He hates women throwing tantrums, and he doesn't like to coax people."

Yun Yang's tone was unusually excited.

Ye Yuhe rolled her eyes and didn't say a word.

I'm really fed up with her, she's practically a split personality.

Yunyang added:

"He won't hate me. No matter what I do or what mistakes I make, he won't abandon me. We have feelings for each other."

His tone carried an inexplicable sense of certainty and pride.

Chu Wuyang pressed for an answer.

"Does he have any leverage over you?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Yang paused for a moment, then smiled strangely.

"I won't tell you,"

This attitude made Ye Yuhe, who was standing to the side, almost want to fight.

Chu Wuyang grabbed her wrist, and she stopped moving.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Chu Wuyang's phone rang on the sofa.

The three of them were drawn to the phone. Chu Wuyang picked it up and saw the caller ID.

He frowned slightly but did not answer the phone.

Yun Yang smiled.

"Looks like they've come looking for us."

She stood up and prepared to walk towards the door, but before leaving, she uttered a couple of unpleasant words.

"Actually, I think you're quite pitiful. You come from a noble family but are controlled by others everywhere. The people around you are a mix of genuine and fake, and who knows how many people are watching you from the shadows."

His tone carried a hint of pity.

Chu Wuyang stared straight at her back, and spoke just as she was about to open the door.

"Actually, you don't need to resort to these underhanded tactics. Let me tell you, I've been planning to get a divorce for a long time."

Yun Yang's hand, which was resting on the doorknob, paused. She turned around, her eyes filled with shock.

"If you tell me your weaknesses, I can even help you rise to power,"

Yun Yang stared at her with an incredulous expression, speechless, even doubting whether she had misheard, trying to discern the truth from the other's expression.

Chu Wuyang crossed her arms, looking serious.

Looking at Yun Yang, who remained silent and seemed quite hesitant,

So she deliberately provoked him.

"Weren't you so confident just now that Jingmin wouldn't abandon you no matter what you did wrong? But now he's cut you off with just one sentence, cutting off your financial support,"

"And as for you making our relationship public like this, I don't really care. It's all in the past. I can pretend nothing happened. For the sake of both families' reputation, Jingmin might even thank me for my magnanimity."

"But can you afford the retaliation for your provocation? What if you can't even stay in the country? If I were you, I'd rather take the risk and gamble."

Chu Wuyang sat there calmly, her eyes slightly narrowed.

It exudes a sharp, scrutinizing aura, as if a powerful presence has formed around it.

Make your opponents fear you.

Yun Yang, who had been so smug just moments before, felt a chill run through her body after hearing this.

She maintained her composure and showed no signs of distress.

She actually saw the same chilling and intimidating aura emanating from the woman before her, just like Jing Min.

Because everything she said was true, she shouldn't have been so impulsive as to provoke her.

But what's done and what's said are like spilled water—they can't be taken back.

Further down the line could be a cliff or...

She didn't dare to think about it anymore.

The phone rang again after it had automatically disconnected. This time, Chu Wuyang neither saw it nor looked at it.

There was no intention of answering at all.

Yun Yang's gaze, however, was fixed on the ringing phone.

It was as if it were some kind of fatal temptation.

Her eyes, darting and sparkling, were full of eager anticipation.

Chu Wuyang stared intently at her slightly moving lips.

"Why?"

"Um?"

Chu Wuyang didn't immediately understand her question.

Yun Yang pursed her lips and fully articulated her question.

"Why me?"

Although she was already wavering in her heart at this point,

But like seeking reassurance, I still asked.

"You mean why you were chosen to succeed Mrs. Jing?"

Yun Yang nodded silently. Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to.

Chu Wuyang is indeed the most suitable candidate for Mrs. Jing, whether in terms of family background, appearance, or personal ability.
