Chapter 416 I'm quitting
When Xia Zhiying arrived at the president's office, before she even knocked, she heard a sweet, coquettish voice saying, "Yuexuan, it's all your fault for making me so tired last night. You have to make it up to me today."
Chu Yuexuan's doting voice came through the door, "The gift will be here soon."
The woman scolded, "Why are you ordering Miss Xia around to deliver gifts? She's so obedient to you, do you really think you can bear to divorce her later?"
"If you don't want a divorce, then stay and continue being a bed warmer! As long as you pay her enough, she'll do anything!" Chu Yuexuan said coldly.
Xia Zhiying clenched her fists tightly, a sharp, stabbing pain shooting through her heart.
She was an object sold by the Xia family to Chu Yuexuan. In his eyes, her past was muddy and unbearable. She was a free sex toy when in bed and a cheap assistant when out of bed.
She was expected to be obedient and virtuous in her marriage, but he continued to have sex with other women after sleeping with her.
The sunny and cheerful boy she liked back then has become someone she doesn't recognize; she's just been deceiving herself all along.
Xia Zhiying suddenly felt nauseous. She pushed the door open roughly for the first time, startling the woman who quickly snuggled into Chu Yuexuan's arms, crying out, "Yuexuan!"
Chu Yuexuan put his arm around the woman's shoulder and coaxed her, then looked at Xia Zhiying with displeasure, "Don't you know how to knock?"
Xia Zhiying slammed the gift down in front of the two of them. Gone was her usual gentle and charming demeanor; her expression was extremely cold. "Since President Chu has a new love, why don't you take some time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce?"
Chu Yuexuan suddenly stood up, grabbed her arm and slammed her against the table, a hint of panic he himself didn't realize flashing in his eyes. "Xia Zhiying, what's wrong with you!"
His perfume smelled extremely pungent!
"See you at the Civil Affairs Bureau!" Xia Zhiying pushed Chu Yuexuan away and turned to leave.
To hell with the stand-in wife act, she doesn't want to act for another second!
Xia Zhiying was always decisive and efficient. After leaving the president's office, she submitted her resignation letter and left Chu's Group with her belongings.
On her way back to the Chu family home, Xia Zhiying booked an apartment through a real estate agency. Once back, she immediately started packing her luggage and booked a moving company.

Once the divorce is finalized, everything here will be irrelevant to her.
Before I had finished tidying up, Chu Yuexuan called.
Xia Zhiying answered the call instinctively, then secretly cursed her own conditioned reflex, asking in a cold tone, "What is it?"
“Rongting Club, Room 888, come pick me up.” Chu Yuexuan didn’t give her a chance to refuse, and warned in a hoarse voice, “Xia Zhiying, you’d better not make me angry again, or the Xia family will suffer along with you.”
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Xia Zhiying sighed; her voice sounded quite drunk.
She had often worked as a driver, taking Chu Yuexuan to and from various social events. Let her do this one last duty before the divorce.
The Royal Court Club is the most luxurious den of iniquity in Haicheng, a place of dazzling lights, intoxicating music and debauchery, and is known as the 'paradise of the powerful and wealthy'.
Xia Zhiying pushed open the door to VIP room number 888, and a wave of heat mixed with a strong smell of alcohol hit her.
Chu Xiyue's gaze swept around when a middle-aged, pot-bellied businessman suddenly grabbed her waist from behind and pinched it, saying, "Big breasts and a perky butt, just my type."
"Excuse me, I'm Mr. Chu's assistant." Xia Zhiying calmly pushed away the man's groping hand, her gaze falling on the man in the middle of the sofa, and she paused slightly.
Chu Yuexuan never brings women to social events. Even when a female companion is needed, she accompanies him as his assistant. But this time, he actually brought his new lover to the party. Perhaps he came to legitimize his new lover.
Her new love had her black hair loosely tied up, dressed sweetly yet innocently, with delicate and exquisite features, a slender figure that wasn't affectedly seductive, and an overall air of natural artistry. Her eyebrows, eyes, and temperament were very similar to Xia Zhi Ning, who had practiced dance since childhood.
No wonder Chu Yuexuan dotes on her so much.
Chu Yuexuan allowed her to stay back then, but it was only because her dance had a touch of Xia Zhi Ning's soul.
But it's only three points! Not as good as this top-tier player in front of us!
The wealthy businessman put his arm around Xia Zhiying's shoulder, looking on with interest. "President Chu's assistant is so beautiful, you're quite the lucky one. I'm in the mood for drinks right now, would you mind if a beauty kept me company for a few drinks?"
The noisy private room fell into a brief silence.
Yu Jiaren leaned against Chu Yuexuan and said enviously, "Assistant Xia's charm and beauty are indeed attractive to men. Yuexuan has a good eye for people."
Chu Yuexuan's face darkened, and he looked coldly at Xia Zhiying, "It's Zhang's honor if she likes it."
In the past, no matter how outrageous he was, this woman was like cotton, letting him mold her however he wanted. He never expected that she would defy him today because of this ridiculous marital fidelity!
She was nothing more than compensation sold by the Xia family; what right did she have to talk to him about loyalty?
Although he had planned to divorce her long ago, he had to keep the initiative in his own hands. How could Xia Zhiying be so reckless as to propose a divorce on her own initiative?
Today, he just wanted to see her give in and beg for mercy.
Forced by General Manager Zhang to join the drinking party, Xia Zhiying turned pale and felt a bitter taste in her mouth.
As expected of Chu Yuexuan, he is cold-blooded, ruthless, and vindictive. He must be angry about her disobedience during the day, which is why he specially summoned her over to humiliate her in every way.
The mistress became Chu Yuexuan's enviable companion, while the legal wife became a plaything that everyone could bully at the drinking parties.
Xia Zhiying pushed away President Zhang's wine glass and groping hand, and looked coldly at Chu Yuexuan, "President Chu, I'm not here to drink with you."
Chu Yuexuan's eyes were full of contempt. "Don't you just like dealing with men?"
The first time the two slept together, his legs were still immobile, and Xia Zhiying took the initiative the whole time!
Rumors circulated in the circle that Xia Zhiying had been in the industry since she was a teenager.

Wandering among all sorts of wealthy young men, why should a socialite pretend to be an innocent little rabbit in front of him?
Xia Zhiying felt a chill run through her body, hurt by the humiliation in the man's words.
In order to "win over" Chu Yuexuan, her adoptive parents drugged her. By the time she woke up, it was too late to undo the damage.
Therefore, Chu Yuexuan has been convinced over the years that she is in cahoots with the Xia family and looks down on her from the bottom of his heart.
She never expected him to humiliate her in public!
"President Chu must have inspected the goods to know Xia Zhu so well. I'm getting more and more excited to see how Xia Zhu wins a man's heart!" President Zhang grinned and pulled Xia Zhiying onto his lap, forcibly offering her a drink. "Xia Zhu, why don't you feed me this drink mouth-to-mouth?"
Bang!
Xia Zhiying smashed her wine glass in front of everyone, pushed President Zhang aside, and looked at Chu Yuexuan with icy eyes, "I quit!"
After saying that, he straightened his back, slammed the door, and left.
Mr. Zhang scrambled to his feet in a disheveled state and yelled, "Mr. Chu, isn't it rumored that your assistant is the most gentle and charming person?"
He was furious and didn't realize how ugly Chu Yuexuan's face was. He got up, grabbed a wine bottle, and chased after her, yelling, "You stinking woman! You're just a mere assistant, someone to be played with. What are you pretending to be, an innocent maiden!"
Watching Mr. Zhang leave angrily, Yu Jiaren subconsciously looked at Chu Yuexuan and was immediately startled. "Yuexuan, your hand..."
She's bleeding!
Ignoring the shock of the crowd and Yu Jiaren's attempts to stop him, Chu Yuexuan pushed aside the beauty beside him and strode after her.
...
at the same time.
Su Youling and Ding Muyan had just finished discussing the details of their art exhibition collaboration and finalized the new contract, and only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect you to let Strange Kingdom take over the art exhibition project so easily." Su Youling looked at Ding Muyan, whose true nature was hard to discern, and her tone was tentative. "At first, I thought that Young Master Ding was hostile towards me."
