Chapter 9
Qin Zhen hung up the phone and looked up to see Wei Jiuer in a white gauze dress dragging her suitcase towards him.
The two of them had not seen each other for a long time. Qin Zhen had always missed her, but when he saw her, he did not feel the joy he had expected. On the contrary, his mind was now filled with the matter of Shen Qingyue wanting to divorce him. He did not know what he was thinking, but he knew very well that he did not like the feeling of being pushed away by Shen Qingyue.
“Zhen, aren’t you happy that I’m back? We can finally be together.” Wei Jiu’er walked up to him and gave him a hug.
Qin Zhen regained his composure and smiled warmly, “Of course, I’m happy.”
He knew very well that Wei Jiu’er was not only his first love but also his savior. She was the most important woman in his life, and he could not let her down. Divorcing Shen Qingyue would be the best outcome. Only then would his beloved not have to bear the label of a third party. But despite eagerly anticipating this, why did he feel no joy in his heart?
Qin Zhen tried to ignore the frustration in his heart and had his new assistant, Gu Xiao, take Wei Jiu’er’s luggage while he held her hand. “Let me show you around. There have been many changes here.”
Wei Jiuer sighed, “Yes, it’s been such a long time since I’ve returned to my hometown… If it weren’t for Shen Qingyue, who put something in my luggage…”
Qin Zhen understood her unfinished words. In fact, Wei Jiu’er could have returned earlier, but on the day she was supposed to come back, Shen Qingyue caused trouble by having something unauthorized placed in Wei Jiu’er’s luggage, resulting in her being blacklisted by customs. Since then, Qin Zhen had completely lost his patience with Shen Qingyue.
For some reason, he suddenly recalled what happened last night. He had immediately concluded that Shen Qingyue was having an affair based solely on Zhu Quan’s words. That time, he had also believed Wei Jiuer’s words without question, thinking it was Shen Qingyue who prevented her from returning to the country…
Realizing what he was thinking, Qin Zhen’s eyes turned cold. He must be going crazy to suspect Wei Jiu’er like this.
…
As Qin Zhen did not arrive, Shen Qingyue returned to the company with her colleagues. However, she went back with an ugly expression on her face. She still had other things to do!
When she got off work that night, it was her best friend, Chen Ying, who called.
“Qingyue, are you free?” On the other end of the phone, Chen Ying’s voice was a little low.
“From your tone, I feel that something bad is going to happen,” Shen Qingyue said with a smile.
“Anyway, you can come to the Blue Whale Hotel.” Before she could refuse, Chen Ying had already hung up the phone.
Shen Qingyue had no choice but to go since it was already after work. She went there by car to see what Chen Ying was up to. As soon as she entered, she saw Chen Ying holding a menu over her head, acting sneaky.
“Miss Chen has changed careers to become a paparazzo?” Shen Qingyue joked.
Hearing her voice, Chen Ying was shocked. Then, she pointed at a table by the window and said excitedly and angrily, “Qingyue, you’re still laughing. Your house has been stolen! Hurry up and slap that mistress to death!”
Shen Qingyue looked in the direction she was pointing. At the table with a white tablecloth, a man and a woman sat facing each other, with bright red roses beside them, creating a picturesque scene. Shen Qingyue nodded, “Wei Jiu’er looks quite innocent when she smiles.”
No wonder she managed to deceive that scumbag Qin Zhen so easily.
Chen Ying pulled her to sit down. “Please, that woman is on a date with your husband! And you’re making comments like that?”
Shen Qingyue was helpless. “You don’t have to tell me about this kind of thing in the future. I divorced him. He has nothing to do with me anymore.”
Chen Ying felt that she must have been hearing things. The bystanders could see clearly. Everyone could see that Qin Zhen did not like Shen Qingyue. Everyone tried their best to stop him. In order to be with Qin Zhen, Shen Qingyue cut off all her previous friends.
Even Chi Ming… Anyway, no matter what, after all the trouble Shen Qingyue went through, she finally got Qin Zhen, but now she doesn’t want him? Moreover, if she remembered correctly, Shen Qingyue had said last week that Qin Zhen was the best man in the world. Just seven days?
Shen Qingyue calmly poured herself a glass of red wine, “To be precise, we are almost divorced. The divorce agreement has been signed; we just need to get the marriage certificate.”
Chen Ying looked at her with a puzzled expression and suddenly said, “Last week, you mentioned investing ten billion in my movie. When should we sign the contract?”
Shen Qingyue looked at her as if she were an idiot, “Are you crazy, or am I crazy? Invest ten billion in your movie? Can you act in a movie? When did I say that?”
Chen Ying nodded, “You didn’t say it! I was just testing you to see if you’ve been possessed by someone else! Especially considering how you used to look at Qin Zhen, like a dog looking at a bone. It’s hard to believe this sudden change!”
