"At best, the stock price will fall; at worst, it will directly affect the future development of the Yip Group."
Will it have such a big impact?
"This is an unavoidable business marriage."
Ye Xinning fell into an endless silence. Qu Wen continued, "So, Attorney Ye, you've thought it through. And, as you just said, Mr. Shen doesn't want a divorce, right? Since Mr. Shen doesn't want a divorce, even if you file a lawsuit, there will definitely be many unavoidable accidents that happen. Those are all uncontrollable factors."
...
After Qu Wen left, Ye Xinning remained sitting alone in her seat. Before leaving, Qu Wen had said something to her.
—Attorney Ye, if we file for divorce, do you think Mr. Shen will compromise?
Will Shen Lin compromise?
Ye Xinning didn't know.
If it were Shen Lin before he lost his memory, she could say that he understood her, but that's not the case now.
She doesn't understand Shen Lin at all. She doesn't know why he hates her so much, even going so far as to use marriage to entangle them.
Perhaps, Shen Lin's current state cannot be understood using ordinary people's thinking.
But if she sues, and Shen Lin uses other means to disagree, she has no other way to deal with him.
Furthermore, she wondered if she really wanted to gamble with the Ye Group in order to divorce Shen Lin.
The Yip Group is the culmination of her maternal grandfather's life's work. Even though her relationship with her mother has cooled because of Kenneth Fok, she cannot ignore her grandfather's hard work.
Ye Xinning was caught in a dilemma. She was thinking about how to get out of the current predicament and how to get Shen Lin to agree to a divorce.
Lost in thought, she didn't notice that in another corner of the restaurant, two men were staring intently at her.
"Do you know who's standing opposite her?" Chi Zhao asked casually, his tone light and slightly teasing, as he rested his chin on his hand.
Shen Lin withdrew his gaze and said casually, "What does it have to do with me who it is?"
"Really? That person is Qu Wen, the young mistress of the Lu family. Of course, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that she is a judge in the People's Court."
As soon as Chi Zhao finished speaking, he saw a subtle change in Shen Lin's expression. Even though Shen Lin tried his best to hide it, Chi Zhao still caught it.
"Didn't you say you didn't care?"
Shen Lin remained as cold and aloof as ever. "Did I say I cared?"
Chi Zhao rolled his eyes speechlessly; he was really stubborn as a mule.
"I said, Jiang An is gone, what are your plans now?"
"Can't you tell that the old man beat me up? What else could I possibly plan?"
Chi Zhao bluntly exposed him, "Forget it, even you and I know each other well. If you really want to keep Jiang An here, what your father did is nothing compared to what he did."
Shen Lin lowered his head and remained silent.
Chi Zhao leaned closer and asked him, "Do you know where Jiang An is?"
Shen Lin looked up, glanced at him, and said nothing.
Chi Zhao shouted, "No way, you really know, but you just let your old man handle it like this and didn't even go to bring the person back."
Shen Lin placed his hand on his ring finger, rubbing it against the wedding ring, doing so intermittently.
"She will find a way to keep the child, whether he is with me or not is the same."
“But that’s your child,” Chi Zhao replied.
Shen Lin looked up and met his gaze, then suddenly laughed.
"Really? Isn't it a bit too early to say that he's my child? Let's wait for the paternity test results before saying anything."
Chi Zhao looked at him in surprise, "What do you mean?"
Shen Lin lowered his head slightly, appearing somewhat unfathomable.
"nothing."
Chi Zhao, "..."
There's clearly something fishy going on, but they still insist there's nothing wrong.
Chi Zhao thought about what had happened recently, as well as Shen Lin's attitude towards Jiang An.
With a smile, she tentatively asked, "No way, you didn't actually have a relationship with Jiang An, but were tricked by that woman into becoming a cheap father, did you?"
After asking the question, Chi Zhao waited expectantly for Shen Lin's answer.
Shen Lin raised his eyes indifferently, glanced at him, then picked up his phone and stood up.
"They're gone."
Chi Zhao looked at him speechlessly, "Seriously? You always leave when we get to the crucial part of the conversation. That's not fair."
"If you're that free, I'll have Shen Ting find you two women."
Chi Zhao, "..."
Is there anyone who would mock someone like that? He looked in Ye Xinning's direction, but there was no one there.
On a sudden inspiration, Chi Zhao spoke in the direction Shen Lin had left.
"I was wondering why you were walking so fast. You didn't see Ye Xinning leave and were in such a hurry to go find him, did you?"
As expected, there was no response.
...
On the other side, after leaving the restaurant, Ye Xinning intended to return to the law firm, but she had only taken a few steps when she received a call from Xiao Chen, asking her to go to the financial center to discuss a case with him.
Ye Xinning stood by the roadside, ready to flag down a car to go to the financial center.
Whether it was peak time or something else, she tried to stop them several times, but they were all occupied.
She began to regret taking her car to the servicing shop this morning. If she had known she had so many plans to go out today and that it would be so hard to get a taxi, she would have gone another day.
Just as she was standing there worrying about not being able to hail a taxi, a Lamborghini pulled up in front of her.
The familiar license plate number made her pause.
Before he could react in any other way, the car window rolled down, and a very familiar handsome face appeared before him.
The man inside the car had a cold and stern profile, with icy eyes that showed no warmth whatsoever.
If she were to meet him on this main street, what would she say? Was this a tragic fate between her and Shen Lin?
"Mrs. Shen, what a coincidence."
Shen Lin spoke, a slight smile playing on his lips. If it weren't for the sarcasm in his words, Ye Xinning would have believed that he was genuinely greeting her with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Shen, where are you going?"
"where are you going?"
Hearing Shen Lin ask this question, Ye Xinning's eyes lit up.
Was his question implying that he could take her wherever she wanted to go?
"Financial Center".
"Oh, I'm not going to the financial center."
Ye Xinning, "..."
She looked at the playful look in the man's eyes after he finished speaking, and immediately understood.
Love is waiting for her here.
She reflected again on her inappropriate thoughts. Shen Lin hated her so much that even if it was on his way, he would not give her a ride. What was she thinking?
"I still need to get a taxi, Mr. Chen, please take care."
She smiled brightly at Shen Lin and said, "Mr. Shen's car is parked here, blocking my view."
Shen Lin placed his arm on the side of the car and looked down into her eyes.
She stood by the roadside, wearing a light blue coat, her hair casually tied back, her makeup very light. As she spoke, her red lips opened and closed, exuding both languid charm and captivating allure.
But she is currently facing the predicament of not being able to hail a taxi.
