Chapter 469 Provocation
The location is surprisingly - the headquarters of Chi Group.
After doing all this, Su Jiujiu put away her phone with satisfaction and breathed a long sigh of relief. What she wanted was not just the shares, but also to make that woman Ji Wan suffer unbearably!
At this moment, Ji Wan had just finished an important medical seminar and habitually opened his mobile phone to see if there was any news he had missed.
A dynamic push notification that she paid special attention to suddenly jumped into her eyes.
This is Su Jiujiu’s account.
That photo, that man's blurry but still recognizable familiar silhouette, that glaring location, and that paragraph of text full of boasting and suggestion.
Ji Wan felt his vision go dark and his phone almost slipped out of his hand.
Her heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, causing her to feel so painful that she could hardly breathe.
Chi Wenyan Sujiujiu Chi Group.
These words spun wildly in her mind, and finally stopped at the sentence "It's another sweet day with my dear."
So, he canceled his lunch with her today, saying there was an emergency meeting at the company, just to be with Su Jiujiu?
An indescribable feeling of coldness and bitterness quickly spread from the deepest part of my heart to every part of my body.
Ji Wan, who was in the hospital room, had no idea that the man she thought had saved her with just a flick of the wrist was actually running towards her, filled with worry and anxiety. She would never have imagined that this man would turn the entire city upside down just to find her.
That photo and those words were like a poisoned blade, cutting her heart again and again.
"It's another sweet day with my dear~"
"Chi Group Headquarters."
Ji Wan's fingertips were cold, and the blood in his body seemed to have frozen.
It turns out that this is what he called an "emergency meeting"!
It turns out that this was the real reason why he turned down lunch with her!
Su Jiujiu, that woman, actually appeared in his office openly and sent such intimate and provocative messages!
An uncontrollable feeling of nausea and anger surged in Ji Wan's heart. His stomach churned and he almost vomited.
She couldn't keep deceiving herself like this.
Some things must be clarified face to face and must be resolved.
Taking a deep breath to suppress the fishy-sweet taste in his throat, Ji Wan dialed the number he knew by heart with trembling fingertips.
In the president's office of Chi Group, Chi Wenyan was pacing anxiously.
Su Jiujiu, that woman, had just left, but her provocative smile and threatening words were still lingering in his mind, leaving him with a lingering feeling of resentment in his chest.
The cell phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence in the office.
He frowned and picked up the phone. When he saw the familiar name on the caller ID, Chi Wenyan grabbed the phone tightly as if he had been electrocuted. The haze in his eyes was instantly replaced by an incredible light.
It’s Wanwan!
She contacted him!
Did she finally come to her senses? Did she forgive him?
A huge surge of ecstasy instantly swept through all his negative emotions, calming his irritable heart because of Su Jiujiu, and even filling him with infinite tenderness and expectation.
He cleared his throat, trying to make his voice sound calmer, but still couldn't hide his excitement: "Wanwan?"
On the other end of the phone, Ji Wan's voice was calm without a trace of emotion, but it was like a basin of cold water with ice chips in it, extinguishing all his enthusiasm and fantasies from head to toe.
"Chi Wenyan, let's talk."
Talk?
His heart tightened. Wanwan's tone was wrong. It was too calm, so calm that it made him feel uneasy.
"Okay, what do you want to talk about? I'll come to you now, no matter where you are." He responded eagerly, afraid that she would hang up the next second.
Ji Wan's voice was still calm, and every word was clearly heard by him, but it was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard: "Let's get a divorce."
divorce? !
These two words were like a thunderclap, exploding in his mind.
He thought he had misheard. The color drained from his handsome face. The knuckles of his fingers gripping the phone turned white from the force. His voice trembled slightly, a tremor he didn't even notice. "Wanwan, you...what did you say?"
All his ecstasy and expectations were shattered by these two words without leaving a trace.
Neither Su Jiujiu's threats nor the extortion of shares made him feel as heartbroken as these two words.
"I said, let's get a divorce." Ji Wan spoke every word clearly, without any hesitation or room for maneuver. "Some things can't be explained clearly over the phone. I'll wait for you at the 'First Encounter' coffee shop near the hospital."
"No! Wanwan, I won't divorce!" Chi Wenyan's voice suddenly rose, with a hint of barely perceptible panic and despair, "Listen to my explanation, things are not what you see! Su Jiujiu she..."
He wanted to explain, wanted to tell her how despicable Su Jiujiu was, and wanted to tell her that he was being plotted against.
"In half an hour, at the First Encounter Café," Ji Wan interrupted him, his voice filled with determination. "If you don't come, I'll have my lawyer contact you directly."
After saying that, without giving him any chance to refute, he hung up the phone.
“Beep…beep…beep…”
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Chi Wenyan felt a bone-chilling chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
divorce?
She actually wants to divorce him!
Because of the updates posted by that woman Su Jiujiu?
No! Absolutely not!
He grabbed his suit jacket and strode out of the office.
Ji Wan put down his phone and took a deep breath, his chest still aching badly.
She took off her white coat, changed into her casual clothes, and walked out of the hospital building with an expressionless face.
The sunlight was a little dazzling, so she squinted slightly without stopping.
'First Encounter' Cafe.
That was where she and he had their first official date, full of sweet memories.
In every corner, their laughter and joy still seem to remain.
But now, she had to end this marriage that she once cherished so much with her own hands.
Is it ironic?
Maybe.
She chose a seat by the window and sat down. The sunlight shone through the glass onto her pale face, but it could not dispel the chill that penetrated deep into her bones.
She waited quietly, waiting for the man she was about to push away, waiting for this destined painful end.
Ji Wan's fingertips were cold as he gripped the phone tightly.
Every word and every punctuation mark in Su Jiujiu's post was like a poisoned needle, piercing her flesh and blood. She took a deep breath, but her chest still ached.
In the box.
When she dialed the number she knew by heart, her voice was calm and composed. "Wen Yan, let's meet. I've booked a room at Yunqi."
Chi Wenyan on the other end of the phone was obviously a little surprised, but he immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll be right there."
In the elegant private room of the "Yunqi" restaurant.
Ji Wan sat upright on the mahogany chair. The tea in front of her had long lost its temperature, just like her heart at the moment.
She didn't look at the exquisite but unattended dishes on the table, her eyes just fell calmly on the door of the box.
The door was pushed open, and Chi Wenyan's tall figure appeared at the door, with a hint of imperceptible haste and uneasiness. He quickly walked over to sit across from Ji Wan, his deep eyes locked with her, and his voice was filled with a hint of cautious tenderness: "Wan Wan, you..."
"Su Jiujiu came to see you today, right?" Ji Wan didn't look up. His voice was as light as a feather, but it hit Chi Wenyan's heart hard.
