The next day, Xu Yanshu waited outside the Civil Affairs Bureau for two hours without seeing Xie Huanyu. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he called the woman.
"Hello, I'm at the Civil Affairs Bureau, you are now..."
"I've just landed in Country A. I need to discuss project cooperation with the representative of the other party. We'll talk about anything else when I get back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
Why did they have to choose today for a business trip?
Knowing full well that the other party was deliberately using this method to delay time, Xu Yanshu's expression turned sinister as he gripped his phone tighter and tighter.
After calming down, he drove directly to the Xie residence and, without saying a word, stormed into the study on the third floor to confront Xie Junyang.
"Chairman Xie, why is Xie Huanyu on a business trip today?"
"I thought we had reached a consensus. If we continue to drag this out, it might not be good for you!"
Xie Junyang had clearly agreed to the divorce during their meeting that day. Whenever he mentioned it, Xie Huanyu, no matter how unwilling, would not dare to openly disobey him.
Xie Huanyu only went abroad on a business trip at the very end, making people suspect that this old fox was deliberately playing him for a fool!
This attitude immediately darkened Xie Junyang's expression. Xu Yanshu was becoming increasingly arrogant in front of him.
"The business trip was scheduled long ago, and as I said before, there are many things I can't control over Huanyu..."
Seeing that the other party was still trying to evade the issue, Xu Yanshu laughed angrily and asked in a chilling tone, "Is that so? Then I'm not in a hurry."
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've chatted with Chairman Huang. I'll go and pay him a visit tomorrow!"
Snap...
Xie Junyang slammed his hand on the desk in a fit of rage, stood up abruptly, and roared in a low voice,
"Xu Yanshu, who do you think you're talking to? Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
“I wouldn’t dare,” Xu Yanshu immediately replied, his tone completely matching the other’s, and said meaningfully, “I just feel that there are some things that Chairman Huang should know!”
Just when it seemed they had his lifeline firmly in their grasp, this old bastard was still scheming and playing mind games with him.
If he continues to remain silent, he will likely become even more demanding.
An invisible tension hung between the two men. After a brief standoff, Xie Junyang sat back down and spoke in a deep voice.
"I'll make sure Huanyu sorts things out over there and comes back as soon as possible!"
When Huanyu called back last night, he thought it made sense after careful consideration. Even if they really wanted a divorce, he couldn't let Xu Yanshu get his way, lest he disregard the Xie family even more in the future.
However, he never expected that Xu Yanshu would come here directly to question him because of this, which was simply outrageous!
Xu Yanshu said with a forced smile, "Chairman Xie, you know I'm not a very patient person. I hope Huanyu can really come back as soon as possible, otherwise I'm afraid I might accidentally let something slip!"
A ruthless glint flashed in the depths of Xie Junyang's eyes, and he waved his hand impatiently, "If there's nothing else, then you can get lost!"
"In that case, I won't bother you any longer."
After leaving a message, Xu Yanshu turned and left, heading towards Jiang Zhengyu's residence.
Jiang Zhengyu said indignantly, "This Xie Junyang is really stubborn; he won't admit defeat until he's faced with a real crisis. He's already at this point, and he's still trying to pull some tricks!"
"Perhaps I should take a stroll around the Huang family's neighborhood."
He Wenye was also getting impatient. He knew the weight of what he had, yet Xie Junyang was still trying to play tricks and stall for time.
"No," Xu Yanshu said after thinking it over, his eyes filled with deep suspicion. "Things will turn into their opposites when they reach their extreme. Xie Junyang is a man who never holds back in his actions. If we push him too hard, he might do something desperate!"
He really wants a divorce as soon as possible, that's true, but only if they can protect themselves.
He Wen has already suffered greatly from this before, and he absolutely cannot take any risks now.
“Uncle He, Yan Shu is right,” Jiang Zhengyu nodded in agreement. “Yan Shu has already made his point clear, and Xie Junyang will naturally weigh the consequences.”
"He certainly wouldn't dare to delay any longer; it'll probably be over in the next few days."
Is it finally time to divorce...?
Thinking about it, Xu Yanshu felt a great sense of relief. But when he thought of Xie Huanyu's outrageous statement yesterday, he unconsciously shook his head.
"If you can't understand each other, you can't work together." It seems he and Xie Huanyu really aren't on the same path.
So, since they got married, they haven't had a peaceful day. While Lu Huai's interference was certainly a factor, the root cause was that they were simply not compatible.
He Wen then calmed down and belatedly realized that his thoughts had indeed been too impulsive.
If you really push that old scoundrel too far, who knows what terrible things he might do.
"However, Yan Shu, judging from the current situation, even if you do get divorced successfully, Xie Junyang will most likely not let you off so easily. You should be mentally prepared for that!"
Xu Yanshu nodded knowingly, "Of course I know that, but as long as we can get this divorce done smoothly, I'll have plenty of patience to play along with him!"
By now, he had completely figured out Xie Junyang, that old fox. Now that he had used all sorts of means to get a smooth divorce, given Xie Junyang's vengeful nature, he would definitely not let him off easily after this.
But it doesn't matter. It's just a matter of dealing with whatever comes my way. At worst, I can just keep going with him like this.
Xu Yanshu looked up at Jiang Zhengyu, "By the way, what has Shengyi been busy with lately? I haven't seen him for days!"
He hadn't seen Qin Shengyi since that day at the teahouse, and thinking back, the questions Shengyi had asked that day seemed to have a deeper meaning.
Busy? That girl seems to have a lot of free time lately; she was even... yesterday.
Just as Jiang Zhengyu was about to say something, he suddenly realized that Shengyi might be deliberately avoiding Xu Yanshu, and he sighed inwardly.
It seems Sheng Yi still hasn't been able to let go of what happened back then...
Noticing that the other person was distracted, Xu Yanshu waved his hand in front of Jiang Zhengyu's face, "Hey, I'm asking you a question!"
"Ah..." Jiang Zhengyu finally came to his senses, looking awkward for a moment before regaining his composure. "What could she be busy with? It's just fundraising, right? She's been vetting companies lately!"
Since Shengyi didn't intend to bring up the past with Xu Yanshu, she wouldn't do anything on her own initiative.
If that's the case, then what was he thinking just now?
Xu Yanshu was skeptical, but considering that He Wen was still nearby, he didn't press the matter further.
