Rebirth: Divorcing the Billionaire
Chapter 12 One Spring Night

Chapter 12: Chapter 12 One Spring Night

Si Yuhuan stubbed out his cigarette. After flipping through a few pages, he hurled the divorce papers toward the doorway with force. "One point five billion in cash, and that’s not even counting the stocks and real estate! Why doesn’t she just go rob a bank!"

Director Si was in a foul mood today. Everyone in the entire building wished they could tuck their tails between their legs and be invisible.

Jian Xi, however, was unhurried and unbothered. She even had Yan Qing relay a message to Si Yuhuan: "If I don’t get what I’m owed, don’t even think about a divorce! Otherwise, we can just go our separate ways, mind our own business, and see if your precious white moonlight can stand being a reviled, hidden mistress for the rest of her life."

Jian Xi understood Jiang Qimeng’s character all too well.She was such a little white lotus—claiming not to want to fight or snatch anything, but in reality, she was insatiably greedy and wanted everything.Jian Xi figured that if Jiang Qimeng found out that divorcing Si Yuhuan meant he’d have to give up half their assets, Jiang Qimeng would fight it tooth and nail.She eagerly wanted to see Jiang Qimeng cause a scene with Si Yuhuan.She just wondered if Si Yuhuan could stomach watching a woman transform from demure to detestable.Jian Xi was very much looking forward to it.

With her extensive network, Wan Yu organized one event after another, seamlessly closing business deals amidst all the eating, drinking, and merrymaking. Jian Xi genuinely admired her energy and capability. She was like a little sun, energizing everyone around her.

The place they were headed to tonight was called "Romance." It was said to be teeming with handsome men and beautiful women, the most popular and fashionable club in the city.

Wan Yu, applying a touch of exquisite lipstick in front of the mirror, instantly adopted the air of a femme fatale. She tousled her hair, looking as seductive and enchanting as a siren. "Watch this lady snag a whole bevy of handsome young men tonight!"

"Alright, alright, you’re the world’s number one beauty," Jian Xi teased. "Still, coming out to talk business while looking so lecherous isn’t very professional of you."

Jian Xi started walking in, Wan Yu close behind. "Wait for me! This is a members-only club; you can’t get in without a special invitation."

"That complicated?" Jian Xi frowned.

"They say it’s a local specialty," Wan Yu said, beaming with pride like a child awaiting praise—getting the invitation hadn’t been easy. "Apparently, people flock here from all over. Many of the shows are pretty intense; hot dances are just the standard fare. Let’s broaden our horizons! Fancheng’s nightlife is even wilder than Beijing’s."

Jian Xi was speechless.

If I keep hanging out with Wan Yu, I’ll end up corrupted sooner or later, she thought. Still, having been reborn, she found these novelties quite intriguing! One shouldn’t live such a dull life all the time.

"Let’s go in and take a look!"

"Sure thing!"

Wan Yu was overjoyed to have a friend who wasn’t a killjoy and shared her interests.

As two great beauties, their entrance naturally caused quite a stir. Heads turned, and handsome men soon approached with drinks, eager to chat them up. Jian Xi and Wan Yu welcomed all comers, soon mingling easily with the crowd.

Sipping fine liquor and watching the women on stage perform with gusto, Jian Xi couldn’t help but marvel at how such places captivated men. The hedonistic pleasures are indeed incredibly relaxing, enough to make one’s soul feel weightless, she mused.

After a few more drinks, Jian Xi’s cheeks were flushed, making her particularly enticing. Perhaps it was the alcohol stirring things up; someone in the crowd said something, and suddenly, people started whistling and cheering.

Soon, Jian Xi spotted an acquaintance, Zhou Yan, taking the stage. Explosive dance music erupted, and his powerful, rhythmic moves were a true visual feast. Jian Xi clapped happily for him.

Who would have thought this sunny boy had such skills? Jian Xi thought. He’s even more captivating when he dances, like a major celebrity. No wonder he has so many devoted fans.

He suddenly walked towards Jian Xi and, with a slight bow, made an inviting gesture. Jian Xi was momentarily taken aback.

The crowd below erupted into roars, "Dance with him! Dance with him!"

Zhou Yan’s eyes burned with intensity. "Senior, do me the honor?"

Why not? Jian Xi thought. It’s all for fun! She wasn’t one to play coy. She grabbed his hand and strode onto the stage. The whistling from below grew even louder.

"Senior, would Latin dance with a bit of cowboy flair be alright?"

"Of course, no problem! Our Xixi is the renowned campus belle of Southern University, gifted in both academics and dance!" Wan Yu shouted, cupping her hands around her mouth like a megaphone, determined to broadcast her best friend’s talents like a total show-off.

Of course, I know, Zhou Yan murmured, but his voice was so low Jian Xi didn’t hear him.

The music started. Jian Xi immediately slipped off her leather jacket, revealing the daringly backless top she wore underneath. The men’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Heavens!" Wan Yu probably hadn’t expected Jian Xi to be so uninhibited tonight. She cheered louder than anyone, like a fiery little chili pepper herself.

A wry smile played on Jian Xi’s lips as she moved her body to the music. Perhaps it was the alcohol that made her feel so carefree, eager to release years of pent-up frustration. Or maybe it was Si Yuhuan’s sting that made her yearn for a different way of life.

Under the kaleidoscope of lights, she was spontaneous and relaxed. Her lithe body moved like a water snake, harmonizing with Zhou Yan’s passionate yet gentlemanly style. They were a stunning pair, a true feast for the eyes. The atmosphere was ignited to an unprecedented high.

Amidst the uproar, a chilling gaze from the second floor fixed sharply on the pair below. The onlooker’s fingers tightened, and with a sharp CRACK, the stemmed glass in their hand snapped in two.

Downstairs, the alcohol began to take its full effect on Jian Xi. After the exhilaration, a wave of dizziness washed over her. Wan Yu’s mischievous dark eyes darted around before she hopped onto the stage to support Jian Xi. "Xixi, need a break?"

Jian Xi pressed her temples. "Mm, I drank too much. My head hurts."

Her voice was so soft and sweet, it made not only men’s hearts flutter, but Wan Yu’s as well.

"Xixi, your big sis has a huge surprise for you! Hope you enjoy it~"

Jian Xi was sent back to the hotel in a daze. Wan Yu escorted her upstairs, a teasing glint in her eyes as she instructed, "Xixi, go all the way in! To the very end!"

Without looking back, Jian Xi waved her arm dismissively and staggered onward. Her head was spinning; all she could remember was Wan Yu mentioning a surprise at the very end of the hall.

Stumbling down the long corridor, she spotted a door with a sign: "VIP Suite."

Mm, this must be it, she thought. She pushed the door and went in—

The moment she stepped inside, a pair of large hands yanked her into the room. The world spun. When she came to her senses, Jian Xi found herself pinned against the door.

"It’s so hot... can you help me?" Jian Xi twisted uncomfortably, her clothes shifting and pulling, revealing expanses of her fair skin...

In the darkness, she couldn’t make out the man’s features. She could only smell a pleasant, faint, cool fragrance on him—strikingly similar to that damn man’s.

"Help? How do you want me to help?" the man gritted out, his words practically forced from between clenched teeth.

Jian Xi’s arms wrapped unsteadily around the man’s waist, and she let out a soft, contented moan. "Mmm, feels so good~"

"Jian Xi~"

"Hmm?" Jian Xi lifted her head and, without warning, bit down on the man’s lips. Before he could react, her restless little hand slipped inside his shirt, tracing the lean line of his spine downward.

"Well? Think you can handle this?" she breathed.

The man clenched his jaw, this little minx pushing him to his absolute limit.

RIP! With the sound of tearing fabric, Jian Xi’s already short and revealing dress was ripped apart in an instant. Simultaneously, a pair of large hands pulled her forcefully against him.
