Chapter 396 A Twist of Fate 9
Jingyu hurriedly gave chase, but his wife disappeared as soon as she left the company. She wouldn't answer her phone, wouldn't go to the company, and wouldn't go home or visit her parents.
He never imagined he would argue with his wife over some random woman, and that his wife would ignore him.
What should we do?
Upon returning to his office, he immediately fired his secretary. The woman was about to cause trouble in his office, but Jing Yu had no time to listen to her rant. If she had any shame, she wouldn't have coveted a married man like him.
After throwing the woman out of the company, he started trying to coax his wife. When she wouldn't answer his calls, he would wait until she was at work and then go to Ning's company to say nice things to her.
"Honey, I admit I was wrong, but the mistake was letting the female secretary take care of Tongtong, not doing something that I'm sorry to you."
I chose her because I think women are more meticulous, and your daughter didn't object. That girl is very shrewd; if she didn't want her, I would have definitely chosen someone else.
Besides, to be honest, I feel really awkward having that stinky man take care of our daughter.
Our Tongtong is so cute...don't you think so?
Furthermore, if you don't believe me, I can check the company's surveillance footage. My office has surveillance cameras on 24 hours a day, and I guarantee that I have never had any inappropriate physical contact with any member of the opposite sex.
There were no same-sex individuals either.
Ning Yan scoffed. She wasn't stupid; of course she knew he hadn't done anything to betray her.
But this guy keeps saying he doesn't love her, so why is he in such a hurry to explain to her now?
"Jingyu, there's no need to explain. Our marriage is purely a business arrangement; there's no affection involved."
If you find someone you like, just tell me directly, and I'll divorce you without hesitation. There's no need to humiliate me like this!
You stubborn mule, let's see how long you can keep up your act!
Jing Yu was dumbfounded. Why were they getting a divorce?
He hasn't had enough of these good days yet!
"Honey, are you kidding me?"
"Who's kidding you! Holographic games are all the rage right now, and you have cutting-edge technology in your hands."
Other game companies, let alone copying you, would take several years to develop holographic technology.
Whether we form a marriage alliance or not is pointless; we might as well break it off sooner rather than later!
After Ning Yan finished speaking, she instructed her assistant, "Show the guest out. I need to work now and don't want to be disturbed."
Jing Yu's eyes turned red after being kicked out.
For no apparent reason, why does his wife want a divorce?
It's all that Secretary Wen's fault; how dare she even have designs on him!
It seems he was too lenient of him to only fire her before!
At that moment, he realized that people really do take their anger out on others when they are extremely angry—Secretary Wen was the first; she was blacklisted by the entire industry.
The second person was his assistant, Secretary Wen, whom he had hired, and half of her bonus was deducted.
The rest of the company's senior management were all caught in the tail end of the storm—they could find fault with even a single punctuation mark at work and then berate you for half an hour.
The oppressive atmosphere in the CEO's office was getting to the point where everyone was on the verge of collapse. Finally, someone suggested, "This can't go on. If we can't keep going, let's beg Madam to take pity on us."
Someone actually contacted Ning Yan, but Ning Yan only gave one reply: "We're discussing divorce, and there's nothing I can do to help."
The assistant was completely bewildered upon seeing the message. Hadn't the wife and the CEO always had a good relationship? How could they be getting a divorce?
Just then, Jing Yu came out and took the phone from his hand.
What do you mean, talking about divorce? How could he possibly be talking about divorce with his wife?
He loved her so much!
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed through my mind—
The argument between the couple was completely inexplicable, and the wife had said more than once that their marriage was just a business arrangement...
He tossed his phone into his assistant's arms, then quickly left the company. On his way to Ning's, he even picked out a bouquet of roses and a ring.
When he arrived, none of Ning's employees stopped him, and Jing Yu strode straight in.
Ning Yan was discussing business with a guest in the conference room. Regardless of whether anyone was there, he went straight in and knelt down on one knee. "Wife, I know I was wrong. I owed you a marriage proposal back then, and I'm making it up to you today."
Also, this is not a business marriage between us. I only said that because I was afraid you wouldn't agree.
Actually, I fell in love with you a long time ago, but I was stubborn and deliberately didn't say it. Sometimes I would even deliberately say something like, "I don't believe in love. What we have is not love, but just family affection."
Because I'm afraid of losing it. Love is too unreliable; you might be head over heels in love today, but not tomorrow.
I want you to stay by my side for the rest of my life, which is why I don't dare to reveal my true feelings to you.
Honey, can you calm down?
Ning Yan: ……
She looked at the client across from her and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm so sorry to have made you laugh today."
"It's alright, isn't it great? The young couple is so loving and affectionate, it's truly enviable."
"You and your husband have been by each other's side all the way, and your love is unwavering. That's why I'm even more envious!"
Mr. Liu was pleased with the praise. "Alright, let's leave it at that. No need to lower the price any further. I'll leave after you sign it, so I won't interfere with you young people's romance."
I really didn't expect that President Jing, who is so powerful and influential outside, would be like this.
Five minutes later, Ning Yan saw President Liu off.
Jingyu's toes initiated a monumental project that would last a century.
God knows, he only had eyes for his wife and didn't even notice that there were other people in the room.
Therefore, after Ning Yan returned, he stood there with his head down, looking extremely awkward.
"Tsk, it's not easy for President Jing to blush."
Ning Yan laughed after she finished speaking.
It's quite fun to tease him occasionally.
Jingyu: ...
"Wife, are you laughing at me?"
Ning Yan's eyes lit up with laughter. "What, is that not allowed?"
Jing Yu gritted his teeth: "I don't care, I've already embarrassed myself today, and you've got to embarrass yourself with me!"
After saying that, he hoisted the person onto his shoulder and went into her lounge.
They slammed the door shut.
A few moments later, a faint rustling sound came from inside...
...
The Lu family was no longer as prosperous as it had been a few years ago.
After Lu Qingye's death, Lu's father indeed brought out his illegitimate son.
It was only then that Lu's mother learned that her husband, with whom she had been loving and devoted her whole life, actually had another family outside.
The one who was most unwilling to accept it was Lu Qingxi.
When her older brother was alive, her father looked down on her and never thought of letting her join the company to participate in management. After her older brother died, the situation did not change at all, and the entire family business was even given to that illegitimate son.
How could she possibly tolerate this?
Lu's mother was equally unwilling. After a lifetime of living, she only realized in her old age that the other person did not love her. Her hatred ran deep, and with her daughter's instigation, she quickly lost her mind.
She hired someone to kill her husband's mistress and their illegitimate child.
With today's advanced technology, cases like this are easily investigated and confirmed. The driver who caused the accident was a terminal cancer patient. His mother gave him three million yuan, which is why he took such a desperate gamble.
Unfortunately, the money he had just received was discovered before he could even enjoy it.
Lu's mother got old and went to jail.
Lu Qingxi became Lu's father's only heir, and people thought that would make her valued?
How could that be?
Lu's father found another woman and devoted himself to having a son, neglecting the company all day long!
His family's company was already barely surviving, and his neglect accelerated its decline.
Unfortunately, he tried for several years but was unable to have a child because his body had been drugged and he was no longer able to conceive.
After learning the truth from the hospital examination, Mr. Lu was so angry that he fainted on the spot. When he opened his eyes again, he was paralyzed.
As soon as he collapsed, Lu Qingxi went to the hospital every day to take care of him (and torment him), constantly beating and scolding him, and not letting him eat his fill. Before long, he was tormented to death by his own daughter.
Lu Qingxi became the first in line to inherit the estate.
However, she didn't know how to manage the company, so she disposed of everything she could, and after getting a sum of money, she squandered it recklessly, which made her a target.
The gigolo was all about charming people, and in less than six months, she was swindled out of her body, heart, and money. He took her hundreds of millions of dollars and ran away abroad, and her police report was useless.
From then on, Miss Lu began her working life.
