Yoshiko Takeuchi found Fu Sheng completely drunk in his office.

After the affair was exposed, a rumor circulated in the company that he was a son-in-law who had married into the family.

Previously, it was just a rumor, and it was difficult to tell whether it was true or false.

But after this news broke, everyone realized that the general manager had actually married into the other family.

A poor boy who marries a rich heiress and whose affair and illegitimate child are confirmed are looked down upon by the public.

Moreover, most of the employees in Yoshiko Takeuchi's company are women.

In an instant, Fu Sheng's image plummeted. People didn't say anything, but their eyes showed undisguised disgust when they looked at him.

That shameless, disgusting man went from having nothing to achieving fame and fortune, and even has a wife like a rich heiress—

How could he possibly be worthy of it?

Therefore, with his employees scoffing at him, Fu Sheng was like a stray dog, not even daring to leave the house.

I hid in the company break room and didn't go anywhere.

He looked like he hadn't showered for two days; his beard was unkempt, his eyes were bloodshot, and there was vomit on the floor.

He knew he was drifting further and further away from Yoshiko Takeuchi.

You must give me an explanation.

As soon as Yoshiko Takeuchi entered, she smelled that sour and unpleasant odor.

She slightly furrowed her brows and took a step back. Seeing this, her assistant quickly went up and opened the window to ventilate the room before standing behind her.

"Didn't you say it was impossible? Does she not dare to do it? Is this your explanation to me?" Yoshiko Takeuchi's voice grew louder with each word.

She was far away, but her unhurried voice carried throughout the office, as if she were broadcasting the news.

The man on the ground stirred, got up, wiped the filth from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and stared gloomily at the woman in the doorway.

"Miko, is this what you wanted to ask me?"

Fu Sheng's voice was rough and unpleasant as he said, "Seeing me like this, you don't even care about a word?"

Is money really that important?

The man gave an irrelevant answer, attempting to emotionally blackmail his wife.

Unfortunately, no one responded to him.

After a pause, Yoshiko Takeuchi continued, "Please give me a solution. What should we do next?"

"Will they continue to play the loving couple, or will they invite reporters to hold a press conference to refute the rumors?"

The calmer his wife was, the more Fu Sheng felt neglected.

"Debunking rumors? Debunk your mother's rumors, fuck!"

Fueled by alcohol, the man threw a bottle at us and yelled, "We're not some big stars, why are you denying anything?"

The glass bottle shattered not far from Yoshiko Takeuchi, but fortunately she was wearing women's trousers and was not injured.

"What are you doing right now, Fu Sheng?"

Yoshiko Takeuchi called him by his full name and asked indifferently, "Playing the emotional card? Or shirking responsibility?"

"That's true, you don't have the talent of a manager, so you can't control your lover."

Fu Sheng snorted heavily through his nose, "Meizi, you don't need to be so sarcastic and mocking."

“When something happens, instead of standing by my side as my wife, you join others in making sarcastic remarks.”

"The Miko of the past wasn't like this."

In the past, Yoshiko Takeuchi respected him, considered the interests of the couple as one, and would never ridicule or mock him.

“Alright then.” Yoshiko Takeuchi turned and went back.

She wasn't going to waste any more time with Fu Sheng; there was no point in continuing.

With her upbringing, she wouldn't do something as vulgar as using foul language.

"Let's go, we'll contact the advertising lawyer later."

Yoshiko Takeuchi gave instructions to her assistant.

As the company's representative, Fu Sheng's actions have damaged the company's interests, and the lawyers have the right to pursue legal action.

Yoshiko Takeuchi also faces breach of contract penalties from her business partners.

If these conditions are met, they will all be deducted from Fu Sheng's account.

After all, this was part of the plan—

She only realized it yesterday.

After experiencing a media frenzy, Yoshiko Takeuchi, who had left through another door of the garage to avoid entertainment reporters, quickly called Sun Lifang.

The other party asked her to meet at home.

"Long time no see." Sun Lifang asked her to sit down and have a cup of hot tea first.

Previously, they had always communicated over the phone, and now, after being subjected to such scheming, Yoshiko Takeuchi was somewhat reserved when they first met.

Sun Lifang noticed this and changed the subject, asking her to think of the worst possible outcome first.

She asked, "If your career ends here, will your material life be affected?"

No, Yoshiko Takeuchi thought.

She was never short of money; it was just money sitting in the bank as fluctuating numbers.

This is also her source of confidence.

“Okay, since this is the worst-case scenario, let’s think about the benefits this incident could bring.” Sun Lifang said with a smile.

The benefit that Yoshiko Takeuchi thought of was divorce; she was willing to sacrifice a sum of money to get a divorce.

Isn't this the principle of cutting losses in time?

"Meizi," Sun Lifang sighed, "Do you remember when I told you you could get an extra reward?"

"Public opinion isn't all bad, don't you think?"

As a seasoned media professional, Yoshiko Takeuchi quickly realized what was happening.

She paused slightly, then asked, "Did you release that news?" Her voice was very certain.

Sun Lifang nodded.

That's right, she was the one who leaked the information to the reporters.

Rather than fighting to the death in a quagmire, it's better to go all out.

“There’s a Chinese proverb that says, ‘Put yourself in a desperate situation and you will survive.’” Sun Lifang smiled at Takeuchi Yoshiko.

Only by putting yourself in the most dangerous situation can you win a chance to survive.

Having been together for fourteen years, Fu Sheng knows exactly where his wife's bottom line is.

He never expected his wife to do that, and Yoshiko Takeuchi, caught in the middle, was already exhausted from juggling work and dealing with the mistress.
