Upon hearing the noise, Shi Jing immediately turned around. If she wasn't mistaken, it was Jin Ye'an's voice.
It sounds like they've run into some trouble.
Not far from Shi Jing and the others, Jin Ye'an was confronting a middle-aged man. Beside the man was a delicate and beautiful woman.
The atmosphere between the two sides was tense, clearly indicating deep-seated conflicts.
Shi Jing, unaware of what had happened, stood up with concern.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Xunkan asked when he saw Shi Jing's movements.
“That’s one of my company’s employees. It seems like he’s in trouble. I’ll go check on him.”
Zhao Xunkan followed her gaze, his brows furrowing slightly: "That man seems to be from Haiyin Entertainment, right?"
"Hey? You know him?"
Shi Jing didn't know anyone else, but she remembered Haiyin Entertainment. When the Little God of Wealth recommended Jin Ye'an to her, he mentioned that Jin Ye'an used to work at Haiyin Entertainment.
Trusting the little god of wealth, Shi Jing never doubted Jin Ye'an, and besides, he never inquired about matters that might involve the other party's private affairs.
However, since she had already encountered this situation, she couldn't pretend she knew nothing about it.
“Haiyin Entertainment has investments from Qingyue’s family, who own a significant portion of the shares,” Zhao Xunkan explained. “Let’s go, I’ll go take a look with you.”
The conflict between the two sides caused quite a stir, and some people watched from a distance. Although they didn't point fingers or whisper among themselves, they couldn't help but talk amongst themselves.
Before Shi Jing even got close, Jin Ye'an said coldly, "Zhou Dahai, we're already divorced. It's none of your business what I do now!"
"You crazy woman, you're still so unreasonable."
"Brother Zhou, don't be angry. My sister misunderstood, that's why she's angry." The woman, whose face was obscured, leaned against the man, her voice incredibly soft.
Hearing the coquettish voice, Zhou Dahai's heart softened instantly, and he put his arm around the woman's waist: "Xiaoxue is so understanding, unlike that crazy woman."
It goes without saying who this crazy woman is referring to.
Jin Ye'an didn't want to pay attention to her and wanted to walk away, but the woman was faster and reached out to grab Jin Ye'an's skirt.
To attend the party, Jin Ye'an was wearing a strapless long dress. Suddenly, her skirt was pulled so hard that it became deformed, and she could no longer walk.
"Miss Xiao, please let go!" Jin Ye'an said coldly. Her years of experience in the workplace had honed her formidable presence. When she put on a stern face, she appeared even more menacing.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Miss Xiao's voice was still soft, with a hint of timidity. "I was just thinking that Brother Zhou hasn't seen Miao Miao in a long time."
Jin Ye'an snorted coldly: "Him? Hmph, Miao Miao will only be better off without him."
“It’s all my fault, but Brother Zhou is the child’s father after all.”
"Dad? A dad like him is better off not having any!" Jin Ye'an scoffed. "Now that we have Miss Xiao, if Zhou Dahai wants to be a father, why don't you give him a baby!"
At this point, Jin Ye'an's face showed a mocking smile. This woman, in her quest to climb the social ladder, didn't hesitate to seduce married men; all she wanted was resources and fame. If she were to marry an old man in the prime of her life, she'd probably run faster than a rabbit.
Xiao Xue's face stiffened for a moment, but she quickly put on a gentle smile again: "Sister, you're joking. Miao Miao is still young, how can we have another child to share his father's love?"
As she spoke, she looked pitifully at the man beside her: "Brother Zhou..."
Zhou Dahai was already completely charmed by this woman, and now he quickly hugged his little lover and coaxed her, "You're just too soft-hearted..."
The onlookers: "..."
Zhao Xunkan read the gossip, clicking his tongue from time to time. When he saw this, he looked at Shi Jing and asked, "Are they putting on a melodramatic show?"
"Probably."
Seeing that Jin Ye'an was handling the situation well, Shi Jing didn't step forward. Having observed the commotion, she roughly understood the situation: the man was Jin Ye'an's ex-husband, and the woman beside him was probably her mistress. Of course, she could also be a fourth, fifth... or even Nth mistress.
Jin Ye'an clearly didn't want to pay attention to the two of them. She knew very well why she was here today and had no interest in putting on a show for others. Zhou Dahai, however, thought differently.
His expression towards Jin Ye'an was extremely cold, devoid of any affection.
"What are you doing here? I heard you're training newbies at a small company. What? You couldn't make it here and want to come back?"
?
Shi Jing looked at Zhao Xunkan: "Is he talking about my company?"
"It seems so." Zhao Xunkan nodded.
Although his luck wasn't great, it wasn't terrible either. It's as if Jin Ye'an is doing terribly and pitifully these days.
"Zhou Dahai, you're still so self-righteous."
What do you mean by that?
"You can continue to bully others in Haiyin just because of your blood ties with the Jiang family. As for me, you don't need to worry about me." Jin Ye'an was very disdainful of him.
Having spent so much time at Shijing Company, she naturally came to appreciate its advantages—a freedom her previous company could never have given her. Only this man before her remained stuck in the past, still seeing her as a pitiful person whom she had restricted and targeted in the past.
"Jin Ye'an!" Zhou Dahai's face turned ashen. "Don't think I'll believe you just because you're being stubborn. With your mentally ill son, let's see which company will give you a good job!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Ye'an's expression turned completely ugly.
Zhao Xunkan cursed out loud: "Damn it, is he even speaking human language?"
Thinking of Miaomiao, who suffered from depression, Shi Jing's eyes turned cold. She didn't believe in the claim of someone speaking recklessly; it was obvious that the other person had never respected his ex-wife and son.
Shi Jing knew from the moment she met Miao Miao that this child was different from ordinary children, but even though the little girl was sick, she was still very well-behaved. Although Shi Jing didn't have much contact with children, she liked this child very much.
Hearing her child being called crazy, she immediately became furious.
"Is Mr. Zhou perhaps drunk?" Before Shi Jing could speak, a male voice rang out.
"Brother?" Zhao Xunkan looked over and saw that it was his brother, Zhao Xunkun, who was speaking. Zhao Xunkun rarely interfered in other people's affairs, which was why he was surprised.
Zhao Xunkun waved to the two of them, and they walked through the crowd.
The farce escalated significantly because of Zhao Xunkun's appearance.
Shi Jing walked over and first greeted Zhao Xunkan respectfully, then looked at Jin Ye'an.
"Sister Jin."
"Young boss." Jin Ye'an nodded to Shi Jing, suppressing his anger.
Seeing that his little farce had suddenly attracted so much attention, Zhou Dahai felt a little embarrassed. The woman beside him also realized that something was wrong, but she suddenly froze when her gaze fell on one person.
"Time Mirror? What are you doing here!"
