Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Unleash a Powerful Move on Them
The moment the door closed, Yan Qing, who was walking over, heard everything clearly.
He instinctively wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. No one in the whole wide world would dare call Si Yuhuan a high-class tart! Jian Xi truly was one of a kind!
He swallowed hard and respectfully said, "Boss, I’ve just reported back to the Old Master that tonight you’ll be staying at the Jian Family home with Madam. Only then did he let the matter rest. It’s clear that since coming out of the nursing home this time, he won’t relent until he sees his great-grandson."
Si Yuhuan had a headache. If it weren’t for Grandfather, why would he have endured this again and again, stuck in the hospital all day?
"Find a caregiver. Watch her tonight. Just make sure nothing happens to her."
He’d lost all interest in staying here any longer. Jian Xi had clearly irritated him. As he reached the door, Si Yuhuan took a deep breath and instructed, "I remember our subsidiary invested in a niche clothing design brand called Yaowang, right?"
As Si Yuhuan’s personal secretary, Yan Qing naturally knew the company’s assets like the back of his hand. "Yes, we acquired it three years ago, and its brand value is steadily increasing. Are you planning to...?"
"Give it to her."
Her? Who? Jian Xi? Madam? Yan Qing was astonished. Had the boss had a change of heart? In the past, even if his wife threatened to kill herself, he hadn’t budged an inch. And now he was actually being swayed by someone?
A young nurse hurried out. "Director Si, Director Si! Your wife said her phone is broken. She wants you to buy her a new one and bring it over."
Such a handsome CEO for a husband would make anyone swoon. The young nurse shyly stared at him.
Si Yuhuan took a deep breath and closed his eyes. "Yan Qing... go buy it!"
She was going to be the death of him tonight. For a sick person, she has so much energy. It seems if I don’t give her more work to tire her out, my ’conscience won’t be clear’!
「The next morning」
As Jian Xi was fiddling with her brand-new phone, customizing useful apps and widgets, Wan Yu burst in.
"Xixi! Are you okay? Let me see! You didn’t knock that clever brain of yours silly, did you?" She enveloped Jian Xi in a bear hug, nearly suffocating her.
"Yu Yu—" Jian Xi helplessly pushed her away. "I’m fine, lively as ever. But another tight hug from you, and I might actually suffocate."
Wan Yu chuckled. "Look at the good news your sister has brought you!"
She pulled out a magazine. Si Yuhuan had actually given her the fashion brand Yaowang. The news report stated clearly that the richest man had gifted his beloved wife a brand worth tens of billions. Their deep marital affection was described in terms so saccharine it was "too cringeworthy to behold."
Just then, Yan Qing pushed the door open and entered. "Madam, please sign this document. Afterward, Yaowang will be yours."
Wan Yu’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
Jian Xi, still in a daze, signed the documents and handed them to Yan Qing. There were two copies, and Jian Xi examined them carefully. Si Yuhuan was genuinely handing over Yaowang for her to manage.
"Wow! Did you two actually sleep together?" Wan Yu’s gossip-loving soul was burning brightly.
Jian Xi shot her a look. "He wasn’t this generous even when we *did* sleep together."
He must feel guilty, or perhaps it’s a show for Grandfather. A capitalist would never make a losing deal. She didn’t dwell on it further and began to pack, preparing for her discharge from the hospital.
Rumor had it that just as her fourth brother was about to head home yesterday, he received an urgent call and had to rush to the neighboring city for an overnight surgery. Jian Xi received a series of apologetic and concerned messages, which made her feel warm inside. It feels so good to be loved and pampered by my brothers.
Wan Yu drove while Jian Xi sat in the passenger seat, fiddling with her phone. Her old one had broken, so she had a lot to reset. She also had messages from Chu Xiao, Zhou Yan, and others.
She casually tapped open Chu Xiao’s message.
Chu Xiao: [I’ve started taking over the family business.]
Jian Xi fell silent.
Zhou Yan: [Sis, thanks to you at the fashion show, I managed to gain four hundred thousand fans in a single day!]
Wow! Gaining four hundred thousand fans in a day, that’s amazing! Jian Xi sent him a thumbs-up emoji.
Wan Yu glanced at her, noticing her love-struck smile. "Hey, who have you hooked up with now? Lately, quite a few people have been subtly asking about you. As your sister, I just want to say, after leaving Si Yuhuan, you’re too hot! If this keeps up, forget being a lawyer, you should just debut as a celebrity!"
SCREECH—
An elderly man suddenly darted into the road. Thankfully, Wan Yu had quick reflexes and slammed on the brakes. Jian Xi, tragically, bumped her head again.
"Are you okay?" Wan Yu anxiously hurried to check on her.
Behind them, car horns blared impatiently.
"I’m fine. Let’s go." Jian Xi rubbed the other side of her forehead. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Qimeng at the hospital entrance.
"Wait a second." She grabbed Wan Yu’s arm.
Driven by curiosity, Wan Yu, the queen of gossip, immediately made a U-turn and headed back towards the hospital.
"Yu Yu, maybe we shouldn’t," Jian Xi said, a bad feeling washing over her.
In my previous life, as I was living on borrowed time, Jiang Qimeng got pregnant. I was so angry I nearly coughed up blood, heartbroken and despairing, and I even considered jumping off a building.
But Wan Yu was too quick; they were already inside the hospital. The receptionist pointed them towards the obstetrics and gynecology department.
PHEW! Jian Xi felt her good mood evaporate.
Just yesterday, I even asked Si Yuhuan if they hadn’t slept together. It seems I was utterly foolish. From that point in time, they had already been intimate. Disgusting.
I swear, if I ever see Si Yuhuan getting lecherous ideas in the future, I’ll just remember today. It’s enough to make me puke up last night’s dinner!
Everyone has a strong curiosity about their love rivals, and Jian Xi was no exception. Seeing Wan Yu go in, she hesitantly followed.
Wan Yu was a social butterfly, able to quickly make friends anywhere. Jian Xi overheard a young nurse whisper, "This beautiful woman has been undergoing uterine conditioning. She has difficulty conceiving naturally, so our attending physician suggested IVF!"
So, was the child in my previous life conceived through IVF? A torrent of emotions churned within Jian Xi.
"Still looking?" Wan Yu suddenly appeared beside her. "That woman is really shameless, using every trick in the book to snatch Si Yuhuan. I say, before you divorce him, have a son and grab a bigger piece of the family fortune. Otherwise, it feels like that little vixen is getting off too easy!"
"In his dreams," Jian Xi retorted without a second thought. Used goods? I’m not interested.
Jiang Qimeng was discussing something with the doctor, looking very anxious. Jian Xi raised an eyebrow. "Do you have any doctor friends?"
"What? Got an idea?" Wan Yu’s eyes lit up.
Jian Xi winked mischievously. "She wants to get pregnant, so of course, she has to suffer a bit. It would be best to get some... ’potent’ medicine, and ensure Si Yuhuan takes some too. That way, I can gather evidence of his infidelity and make an even bigger profit."
"Brilliant!" Wan Yu exclaimed in admiration.
She was now completely convinced that Jian Xi was dead set on divorcing Si Yuhuan. When a woman starts planning for her own sake, it’s a sign she’s finally come to her senses!
Soon, Wan Yu had made arrangements with her friend. Jian Xi received a message: medication suitable for both men and women had been prescribed to Jiang Qimeng.
"Xixi, do you think Si Yuhuan will take it?"
Jian Xi had just returned to the old mansion. As she stepped into the foyer, she saw Si Yuhuan sitting on the living room sofa, chatting and laughing with Grandfather.
"He wouldn’t dare not to!"
With that, she hung up and walked inside.
I’ve made my big move. Now let’s see how Jiang Qimeng handles it.
