Jiang Yue could easily see through Ding Ru's scheme, but she feigned ignorance and made up a story: "Oh dear, I haven't counted, I can't count them all."
Ding Ru was more heartbroken than if she had died when she got the answer. She couldn't even manage a smile, and managed to squeeze out a dry word of comfort: "Yueyue, don't be sad. Love can't be forced."
After offering insincere comfort to Jiang Yue, Ding Ru quickly went to tell her pure and innocent best friend the good news.
"Aqin, Zhou Ji and Jiang Yue are really getting a divorce this time."
"Jiang Yue just admitted to me that she and Zhou Ji are separated. When they got married, I told you not to be sad. Two people who are not well-matched cannot last."
Qin Qin gripped her phone tightly, her lips pressed together: "Really? She didn't lie to you?"
Ding Ru said, "Aqin, I don't feel it."
Qin Qin's reaction was colder than she had expected, but she seemed to remain calm no matter what happened, extremely patient, and kept her emotions tightly under wraps.
Ding Ru still remembers how Qin Qin's eyes turned cold when she learned that Zhou Ji and Jiang Yue had gotten married, which frightened her.
He dared not associate with her anymore.
The reason they remained close to her was naturally because the Ding family still needed to rely on the Qin family.
"Aqin, do you still like Zhou Ji?" Ding Ru asked softly. "His child with Jiang Yue is five years old now. I think you and him..."
She married him and became a stepmother.
It wouldn't sound good if word got out.
However, Qin Qin's family has always spoiled her. They almost never stop her from doing what she wants. She has open-minded and generous parents and a powerful older brother.
Qin Qin didn't answer. Of course she liked Zhou Ji; she'd liked him since childhood, and even after his marriage, she still couldn't forget him. Why Jiang Yue? Why Jiang Yue?
She let out a long sigh. "I have something to do, I'll hang up now."
Qin Qin felt that Jiang Yue's life was probably just as difficult as hers had been back then. She smiled, even though she and Zhou Ji were no longer destined to be together.
However, Jiang Yue was able to fully experience the pain she had suffered back then, which was enough to make her feel better for a long time.
That being said, Ding Ru didn't believe Jiang Yue's claim that she had received a lot of money.
The upper class is clearly defined.
Like begets like, and the friends you make after starting school are also divided into different classes.
Regardless of whose family they are, even if their family backgrounds are comparable, they must sign a prenuptial agreement in black and white after marriage.
Since the marriage was based on mutual benefit, people tend to weigh the pros and cons more carefully when making decisions.
According to the prenuptial agreement, if Zhou Ji were to harden his heart, Jiang Yue would leave with nothing.
Ding Ru wasn't just a callous person who would kick someone when they were down; she had her own job, and she studied accounting in college.
Even the slightest disturbance at a listed company can alarm others.
Ding Ru checked and found no changes in the company shares under Zhou Ji's name.
If no shares are given, then they really won't give much money.
Besides, money will eventually run out, but the dividends from GR Group shares every year are simply inexhaustible.
Ding Ru was almost certain that Jiang Yue was being stubborn and trying to save face by lying to her.
She then pretended to ask Jiang Yue, "Yueyue, where are you now? Do you want me to come and keep you company?"
Upon seeing this message, Jiang Yue slowly typed in her reply: "I just moved to Jianan Mansion today."
Ding Ru stared at the words and her eyes widened. The Jianan Mansion had been bought by a mysterious buyer a few years ago for a sky-high price of nearly 600 million yuan, which was equivalent to more than one million yuan per square meter.
She gasped, feeling a tightness in her chest.
Especially the next second, Jiang Yue sent her photos of the Jianan Mansion courtyard: "Isn't it beautiful?"
Ding Ru gritted her teeth: 【Beautiful.】
The house, worth 600 million, is still in an excellent location, with security personnel and a dedicated butler.
Jiang Yue felt that her story should end in the original novel after the divorce.
Moving into her new home, Jiang Yue opened a bottle of red wine for herself. Slightly tipsy, her voice carried a hint of unusual sweetness: "So, I guess I've completed my mission, right?"
All we need to do is wait quietly for her to pass the day she was bullied to death in the original story unharmed.
The system replied vaguely: "Baby, it's hard to say."
Jiang Yue took a sip of her wine, her brow furrowing at the astringency. She heard the system continue: "[If the female lead's halo is too strong, and the male leads and supporting characters are infatuated with her, and the female supporting character is naturally a catalyst for the romance between the male and female leads in a romance novel, perhaps even you, who remain law-abiding, will suffer unexpected misfortune.]"
Jiang Yue's ears ached from listening to such long, drawn-out speeches: "Keep it simple."
The system whimpered, "I just wanted to keep you on your guard, sob sob. Otherwise, why would I have you trying to please them? It's safer to build up their favorability!"
The princess, with a serious expression, said coldly, "People must first humiliate themselves before others humiliate them."
Those who willingly debase themselves to suffer humiliation will certainly not be respected by others.
Being obsequious and groveling is the most useless and spineless thing to do.
System: I feel like I've been scolded.
Jiang Yue was not affected by the system. She did not get involved in the love and hate of the main characters, nor did she actively do anything illegal or criminal.
Even if Zhou Ji uses his ex-girlfriend as a scapegoat for his beloved white moonlight heroine, or even if Jiang Zhi, that ingrate, wants to send her to jail for the girl he secretly loves.
They also lacked a legitimate reason for their actions.
There's nowhere to start.
＊
The city hall offices.
A file on Jiang Yue's desk was already laid out, detailing her life from kindergarten to marriage and childbirth.
Age, date of birth.
Clear and obvious.
It appears to be a very complete and innocent document, except that there is a younger brother among the relatives.
My biological younger brother.
The information shows that he is one year younger than her.
The paper in Qin Zhao's hand was crumpled up because the man was gripping it too tightly with his fingers.
Are there really such coincidences in the world?
She actually has a younger brother.
"Mrs. Zhou recently went to the hospital to get a paternity test with her mother. I have put the results in a folder. You can take a look if you are curious."
After observing the situation, the assistant said in a low voice.
Qin Zhao has just seen it; the paternity test results show that she is not her mother's child.
The man calmly locked the stack of documents in the drawer; an inexplicable intuition made him almost certain of his guess.
Just confirm it one last time.
Qin Zhao said, "Contact Dean Liu and tell him I need his help."
