Cheng Shi dejectedly lowered his head. Businessmen only value benefits, and benefits are the hard truth. With the financial power the Ye Group has shown, Weishui can no longer resist. Sincere cooperation is almost impossible now. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
"Yes." Cheng Shi replied.
Su Changfeng got out of the car alone.
Su Changfeng had been quietly walking his entrepreneurial path since he was 14 years old, and this was the first time he encountered such a formidable enemy. No matter what cunning he had, in the face of true power, those tricks were useless.
No matter what solution Su Changfeng could come up with, the Ye Group’s capital was like a mountain piercing the clouds, surrounded by barren land. Despite countless tricks, he could never get over it.
For the first time in so long, Su Changfeng felt powerless, but in order to be with Tang Qiulu again, even if faced with a giant, he must bring them down.
At the Shen Family Group, Tang Qiulu, who hadn’t slept well all night, seemed very haggard today. Although she had makeup on, her dark circles were particularly evident.
Lin Qingmeng knew that Tang Qiulu was very self-disciplined and had specific rest times. She would never let herself sleep badly. Could it be that something very intense happened last night?
Slinking over to Tang Qiulu, Lin Qingmeng gave a strange smile and said to Tang Qiulu, "Qiulu, seeing you , you must have been really tired last night, you and Su Changfeng..."
Lin Qingmeng stretched out her hands, her index fingers tapping each other continuously, with an ambiguous expression she continued, "Completed the final step?"
"Changfeng and I got divorced." Tang Qiulu said.
Lin Qingmeng’s action froze, her expression gradually turning into disbelief.
"You... what did you just say?" Lin Qingmeng scratched her ear, feeling like she heard wrong.
"You didn’t hear wrong, Changfeng and I got divorced." Tang Qiulu said.
Lin Qingmeng suddenly exploded, saying angrily, "What happened? Did that bastard Su Changfeng really do something despicable? That scumbag Su Changfeng, I’ll chop him into mincemeat for daring to treat you ."
Seeing Lin Qingmeng’s overreaction, Tang Qiulu quickly said, "He didn’t do anything wrong. On the contrary, he did it for my good."
"Nonsense! Divorcing you is protecting you? Did you take the wrong medicine, Qiulu? How can you believe such nonsense?" Lin Qingmeng said angrily.
In Lin Qingmeng’s eyes, Su Changfeng was a particularly devoted person. She silently considered him a male idol, but now, Su Changfeng’s image as an idol suddenly collapsed in her heart. This is why she was so angry, not only for Tang Qiulu, but also for herself.
The man who was once an extremely devoted idol in her heart suddenly became someone who deceives and toys with women’s emotions, which she couldn’t accept.
"You don’t have to get so worked up. Calm down first. Do you want to know what happened?" Tang Qiulu said calmly.
"Tell me immediately. If this bastard did anything to wrong you, I’ll buy a knife right now and kill him!" Lin Qingmeng angrily rolled up her sleeves.
Tang Qiulu smiled helplessly. Lin Qingmeng’s care for her never changed from start to finish.
However, she also understood, Su Changfeng’s heart for her hasn’t changed either. She also believed that when Su Changfeng decided to do this, he was equally in pain.
When Tang Qiulu shared her suspicions and the whole story with Lin Qingmeng, Lin Qingmeng’s emotions finally calmed a little.
"Is it true? He didn’t have an affair with another woman?" Lin Qingmeng asked suspiciously.
"There are some things I can’t tell you for now, but it is more or less like that." Tang Qiulu concealed Su Changfeng’s identity, only mentioning that Su Changfeng had conflicts with the Ye Group, which prevented her from fully convincing Lin Qingmeng.
If she revealed Su Changfeng’s true identity to Lin Qingmeng, she would have no doubts, but Tang Qiulu couldn’t do that because Su Changfeng didn’t want others to know his true identity.
And Lin Qingmeng’s loose lips were something Tang Qiulu was acutely aware of. If she told her, it wouldn’t be long before she told someone else.
"Why is Su Changfeng entangled with the Ye Family?" Lin Qingmeng didn’t understand.
"That’s part of the reason. You’ll understand more one day." Tang Qiulu said.
Lin Qingmeng suddenly put an arm around Tang Qiulu’s neck, as if trying to choke her, though she didn’t use much force, and with a threatening tone she said, "Alright, Tang Qiulu, you didn’t tell me everything. Don’t you trust me?"
"I’m worried you’ll leak what shouldn’t be told to outsiders. Don’t you know how loose your lips are?" Tang Qiulu said helplessly.
Lin Qingmeng awkwardly released Tang Qiulu and said, "You’re right. If you told me, I definitely couldn’t hold it back from others, so forget it for now. I’ll forgive you this time, but you should pay attention to Su Changfeng so other women don’t deceive him."
Tang Qiulu thought about going to see Su Changfeng. Although they were divorced, it didn’t mean they couldn’t meet.
But considering that Su Changfeng did this to cut ties cleanly, if she went to see him, then there was no need for the divorce.
"I trust Changfeng." Tang Qiulu said firmly.
Lin Qingmeng also trusted Su Changfeng because the image of the devoted male idol was already deeply imprinted in her mind.
"Just asking, at tonight’s gathering with our three sisters, will you tell Qing Shan about your divorce?" Lin Qingmeng asked.
"By now the whole Jiang City probably knows. Do I still need to tell her?" Tang Qiulu said with a wry smile.
Lin Qingmeng nodded, saying nothing more.
The news of Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu’s divorce had spread throughout Jiang City by last night after fermenting. Rumors of Su Changfeng going to Cang Jiao Pavilion also spread, and now Su Changfeng not only bore the insult of being a coward but also a scumbag.
Many women were furious about it, about how a useless man, supported by Tang Qiulu for three years, dared to do something unworthy of her.
Some radicals even discussed the matter online, launching a massive wave of insults against Su Changfeng.
The instigator, Sun Mei, was particularly pleased with this outcome. The harsher the blame on Su Changfeng, the less impact on Tang Qiulu, allowing her to find a husband more easily in the future.
Now, Sun Mei had no intention of having Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu remarry. In her eyes, Su Changfeng was doomed, so Sun Mei started a new plan in her mind.
