"Are you nervous about having a major falling out with Xie Yuan tomorrow?"
Song Xia raised her glass: "I'm really looking forward to it. His expression tomorrow will definitely be interesting."
"It's a real pity we won't be able to see that footage tomorrow," Yu Ting said regretfully.
"You can enjoy watching their downfall anytime. And how's your situation going?"
"They couldn't find me, so they went to my parents' place and made a scene. My parents went to my company, but I had already resigned and informed my superiors in advance, so they were kicked out by security." Yu Ting's expression was indifferent, as if she wasn't talking about her own troubles.
"After all this trouble, they still won't agree to a divorce?"
"They disagree for now because I made them lose face. They want to regain their face and then kick me out in a humiliating way."
"Tsk... He's really greedy. I heard he even asked you for 800,000 back?"
"Yes, the bride price was 300,000 yuan. Their reason was that I hadn't had a child in the past few years, which wasted Chi Jie's youth, so they wanted me to pay double the amount as compensation for the loss of my youth. They also said that I had embezzled money from his family and given it to my family, so I had to return it with interest."
Song Xia took a sip of tea, speechless: "You've got some nerve!"
"Let them continue to make trouble like this. The more unreasonable they are, the more the judge will side with me. I can get back my salary and bank statements from all these years, as well as the medical records for my miscarriage."
Yu Ting became increasingly cold as she spoke: "I didn't realize how much I had sacrificed until I sorted it out. My salary was over 10,000 yuan, and with the year-end bonus, my total income over four years was nearly 700,000 yuan. Although I would give some to my mother occasionally, the total amount over four years was only about 100,000 yuan. Yet now I don't have a single penny of savings."
Looking at her simple clothes, Song Xia sighed: "All these years have been spent on them, mother and son?"
“Chi Jie smokes and drinks, and he always gets money from me for it. He only smokes the good stuff, and his monthly expenses on cigarettes and alcohol are close to ten thousand yuan. Zhang Yufang always talks about how much she has spent on me, which makes me feel guilty. So I buy her clothes and shoes from time to time, a few times a month, which is another two thousand yuan. And then there's the fact that I cook for her every day, so I naturally buy the groceries too…”
The more Yu Ting talked, the more she wanted to slap herself. How could she have been so stupid? Did she really think 300,000 yuan would buy her a lifetime of being bossed around and abused? She had already earned that money back long ago.
"It's not too late to wake up. The amount of money the Xie family swindled from me is truly enormous!"
Yu Ting nodded. Indeed, she estimated she could never earn that much money in her entire life.
"We're both pretty much in the same boat. Let's not dwell on the past. A wonderful life awaits us in the future. Cheers!" Song Xia raised her glass, and Yu Ting smiled.
After filing for divorce and cutting off contact with my family, I felt so much lighter, like I was reborn.
"I haven't thanked you yet for providing me with accommodation and a job."
"You were hired because you are capable; I was just providing a channel."
"So many people seek this one channel but find no way to access it. Song Xia, I admire you."
"Dry."
Standing on the rooftop, Song Xia looked down at the city. How long had it been since she had enjoyed such a beautiful view? The housework and troubles had left her disheveled and almost driven crazy by Xie Yuan, ruining her life.
Since Xie Yuan is going to ruin her, she might as well ruin Xie Yuan in return.
Falling from a height must be unpleasant; I wonder if Xie Yuan can handle it.
He feels wronged and humiliated even if he marries himself, so he probably can't accept being a prisoner. Tsk... I wish him good luck.
After a good night's sleep, Song Xia was full of energy. After meeting up with the legal team, she leisurely went to the Song family's office.
The board meeting is at 10 o'clock, and Xie Yuan is probably already busy.
In recent years, he has won over many directors and privately bought some shares under his own name. In fact, fearing that the matter would cause too much of a stir, he even registered some of them under Zuo Shan's name.
Zuo Shan must have longed to attend the board meeting, but unfortunately, the shares she bought with illicit money had to be returned. Not only the shares, but also the house, jewelry, designer bags, etc., none of them could be left behind, and she would never be able to attend such an event again.
"Ms. Song, once the lawyer's letter is sent, we will immediately apply to the court to freeze the assets under the names of Xie Yuan, Zuo Shan, and others. To prevent them from resorting to desperate measures, we suggest you hire a few security guards."
"I've prepared all of this, and I can't wait!"
Today she was dressed extremely formally, in a suit, with her hair up and red lips. She was followed by her assistant and several lawyers. Her imposing manner immediately intimidated the receptionist when she entered the company.
"President Song, who are these people? Did they make an appointment? President Xie has a rule that people without an appointment are not allowed to enter the company."
Song Xia stopped, her demeanor arrogant: "Didn't you see I brought this in? Does this company belong to the Song family or the Xie family?"
The receptionist was intimidated by her aura, her face turned pale, and she stammered, "But this is Mr. Xie's rule."
Song Xia sneered: "Then remember this: from now on, there will be no more President Xie in the company."
After she finished speaking, she went straight up the elevator. The two receptionists looked at each other, and then their expressions changed drastically.
What did President Song mean by that?
The two couldn't help but feel uneasy. Judging from President Song's appearance, it seemed like he had come for revenge. Could it be that he had really had a disagreement with President Xie? Did President Xie know about this?
Should we notify our superiors?
The other person swallowed hard: "Let's talk about it. After all, President Xie has the most power in the company now."
"But President Song owns the most shares..."
Xie Yuan had already entered the conference room and was holding a board meeting according to the normal procedure. The secretary received a call from the front desk, but she only understood half of what was being said and dared not go in to disturb them, so she hesitated at the door.
Inside, Xie Yuan spoke with great enthusiasm about his plans for the future of the Song family, which was met with rounds of applause.
Only Old Meng and Boss Liang wore expressionless faces. Seeing this, Xie Yuan asked in a threatening tone, "What, do you two have different opinions?"
"I disagree. Yuanxie is just a little-known company. Why should we abandon our original partner and cooperate with this one? Mr. Xie, please give me a reasonable explanation."
“I have been professionally evaluated for my company, and although its experience is limited, its future is bright.”
Old Meng tapped the table: "This Yuanxie Company and President Xie really have some kind of connection. Yuanxie, Yuanxie, isn't that Xie Yuan reversed?"
Xie Yuan's expression changed. Did these two know something?
"Don't spread rumors without any evidence. My hard work for the Song family over the years is evident to all."
"It was just a joke. Mr. Xie went too far. We can wait until Mr. Song arrives before making a decision on the cooperation with Yuanxie."
"Song Xia isn't attending today, saying she's entrusting all company matters to me. This is the agency agreement she personally signed." Xie Yuan straightened his back. "Do you two have anything else to say?"
