The hot air sprayed on my ears and my back stiffened.
But we had to act affectionate in front of the shareholders, so I just nudged him lightly with my elbow.
The next second, he held my hand.
"Mu Yan is my wife, and Mu Xianghua is my father-in-law. If anything happens to my father-in-law, I, as his son-in-law, will take the responsibility."
The shareholders looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although no one spoke, the atmosphere began to change quietly.
Zhou Yating seemed to have noticed something and immediately said, "But I remember you two were getting a divorce before."
Zhou Chenyan looked at me and said, "Mrs. Zhou, I'm asking you a question. Are we getting a divorce?"
He did it on purpose!
Knowing that I need his help now, there is no way he would say this word.
Yet you still ask me.
I gritted my teeth and forced a smile, "It's indeed a divorce."
His eyes darkened.
Zhou Yating smiled, "That means your relationship isn't stable."
"Mrs. Mu, have you never quarreled with your husband?"
I asked back.
"Of course we had a fight, but..."
"But you've reconciled now, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to the company to help him secure his position."
The smile on Zhou Yating's face gradually disappeared.
I held Zhou Chenyan's hand. "It's common for couples to argue with each other. It's understandable that they might file for divorce out of anger."
"Mrs. Zhou is right."
Zhou Chenyan nodded in agreement.
I glanced at his hand on my shoulder and smiled, "Ayan doesn't want to divorce me, right?"
Zhou Chenyan lowered his head and smiled at me.
Gentle and doting.
"Of course, you are the wife I have gone through so much trouble to get back. I will never divorce you no matter what happens."
Looking into his deep eyes, the hairs on my back stood up.
It's like being targeted by some dangerous predator.
Just as I was thinking about my next step, Zhou Chenyan suddenly took out an envelope from his pocket.
"Mrs. Mu, I'm actually very curious. My mother-in-law's suicide note is here with me. Where did you get yours?"
Zhou Yating was panicked for a moment, "How is this possible? How did the suicide note end up in your possession?"
"My wife gave it to me."
When did I give it to him?
Even I have never seen my mother's suicide note, let alone hand it to him.
But at this moment I had to cooperate with him.
"Is it strange that my mother's suicide note turned up in the hands of her son-in-law?"
Zhou Yating snatched the envelope from Zhou Chenyan's hand, opened it, and examined it. Her eyes widened. "How is this possible?! The lawyer clearly told me that there was only this one copy. How could there be a second copy?!"
Zhou Chenyan said calmly, "The suicide note in the lawyer's hand is in duplicate. Don't you know that?"
Zhou Yating really didn't know.
You can tell by the look on her face.
So now the question is, the notes on these two suicide notes are the same, including most of the content.
But there was an extra line of words on Zhou Yating's copy.
Before his younger brother comes of age, his biological father Mu Xianghua will temporarily manage the shares, including the management rights of the company.
As if afraid that I would destroy the suicide note, Zhou Yating snatched it away.
"Even if there are two copies, your copy must be fake."
"Let's do the handwriting identification, word by word."
I stared at Zhou Yating closely.
Her face changed.
Zhou Chenyan scoffed, "I'm afraid someone doesn't dare to do it. After all, fake ones are easy to be exposed."
Zhou Yating gritted her teeth and said nothing.
I guess she was thinking about what words she should use to save the relationship.
But I would not give her this opportunity, nor did I want to waste time with her, so I directly found a professional appraiser.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, the handwriting identification results came out quickly.
Both suicide notes are genuine and were written by the same person.
but--
The extra sentence in Zhou Yating's suicide note was added later.
The result is obvious.
Zhou Yating was still quibbling, "I don't know what happened. This suicide note was taught to me by your father."
I laughed.
Zhou Chenyan said sarcastically, "Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. This sentence really suits you two."
I don't know who laughed.
We are not fools. Now that things have come to this, who can't see that Zhou Yating is lying?
Zhou Yating's face flushed red, and she glared at me fiercely, "You are so cruel, Mu Yan, do you think this man is helping you?"
I have no comment.
"Just wait and see, he's just trying to get his hands on this company. Once he's used you enough, he'll kick you out like garbage!"
Said he was going to turn around and leave.
No one took her words seriously. Seeing that the matter was settled and there would be no further twists and turns, everyone came over to congratulate me.
I maintained a polite smile, but Zhou Chenyan became impatient.
He pulled me out.
So rude, he didn't even say hello to anyone.
However, no one complained.
Once again, I deeply realized how important power is.
Only when your own strength is strong enough can you gain the respect of others.
Once we were in the car, I asked, "Where are you taking me?"
"go home."
"The company's affairs have not been dealt with yet, and I don't want to go back now."
"I asked you to come home with me."
He was as domineering as ever and didn't even give me an explanation.
