I Just Want to Divorce

Ye Yao didn’t expect to run into Ye Fei at the bar.

As Ye Fei refused to help, Dingyuan was currently in no small financial crisis. Not only that, but ever since last night, whenever his dad saw him, he would look as though he wanted to say something, yet never did.

He once even blurted out in front of him, “If only you had your brother’s ability…”

Ye Yao hated it the most when others compared him with Ye Fei. Moreover, his father had always been partial to him, and was always good every time he mentioned Ye Yao; he’d never expressed such blatant disappointment in him.

This huge psychological disparity made Ye Yao completely unable to endure, and in the past two days he couldn’t even care about his injuries, holding his breath and looking for ways to invest everywhere, desperately wanting to make some achievements to prove himself.

He got lucky and through a friend managed to meet Li Zhongyuan, which led him to the project 《The Way to Upgrade The Favourite Concubine》.

Li Zhongyuan was the heir of Baofeng Media, a top domestic entertainment company, and didn’t run in the same circle as Ye Yao, a rich second generation. Ye Yao had seen him several times at banquets, but despite doing everything he could, he wasn’t able to even ask for the other’s business card.

Ye Yao realised quite clearly that his chance to turn the tables around had finally come. How could a TV series that made Baofeng Media unanimously optimistic be bad? It was like making money while lying down!

Therefore, he decisively made up his mind and immediately contacted Blue Ocean Entertainment, indicating his willingness to invest.

Father Ye was initially hesitant. After all, his youngest son had just wasted 20 million in vain. However, when he grasped that the top investor was Baofeng Media, he immediately changed his attitude and praised Ye Yao for his good work.

At this point, Ye Yao swept away his previous dejection and finally unfurrowed his brows. Tonight, he deliberately brought a few friends to the bar to celebrate, and by coincidence heard Ye Fei’s words.

“Pft—” One of Ye Yao’s friends almost spit out a mouthful of wine, he pricked up his ears and looked at Ye Yao. “No, did I hear that right? That cheap brother of yours is persuading people not to invest in 《The Way to Upgrade The Favourite Concubine》?”

Another friend tsked: “I finally know why your dad doesn’t like him anymore, this vision is really amazing!”

Ye Yao grinned and put on an act, saying, “Don’t say that, my family is quite serious in their analysis.”

“Is this the legendary second to last lecturer, where one dares to speak, and the other dares to listen, hahahahaha.”

“Baofeng Media carefully selected this TV series and sent it to Li Zhongyuan for him to build momentum with. This project, even if you think about it with your toes, you know it won’t be a loss.”

“I wonder, where did Ye Fei get the confidence to come here and make such a big speech?”

“Who knows, maybe it’s the courage his IQ gave him.”

…

As Ye Yao listened to sentence after sentence, he felt as if he’d eaten a popsicle on the hottest day of summer, making him feel at ease. He proudly raised his eyebrows. After this, who would dare say that Ye Fei was better than him?

Imagining himself making a lot of money and trampling Ye Fei beneath his feet, Ye Yao couldn’t hold back any longer. He drank the liquor in his cup, got up and walked over.

“Ye Fei, is this how you cheat your friends?”

Before Ye Fei could respond, he turned to Gu Ruijia and the other two, quickly saying, “You may not know yet, but Baofeng Media has listed《The Way to Upgrade The Favourite Concubine》as a key investment in the second half of the year, personally followed by Li Zhongyuan himself.”

He paused and pointedly said, “Those who advise you not to invest are either stupid or bad.”

Sun Qiong and Zhou Zhensheng’s expressions changed slightly.

Baofeng Media was known for its accurate investments and rare failure, and had been called an industry myth by the media. The two looked at each other, and the scales in their hearts tilted in an instant.

However, Gu Ruijia was unmoved. Regarding Baofeng Media, could they never have any lapse of judgement?

He glanced at Ye Yao and coldly said, “Who do you think you are to run here and pass judgement, how does it concern you whether we invest or not?”

Once upon a time, his friend was fiercely protective of Ye Yao. Even if Gu Ruijia didn’t like him, he couldn’t say anything too unpleasant, but now that both had shed all pretences of cordiality, he cared even less about this person!

“Concerning what Ye Fei said, I think it’s reasonable. What about it?”

“Gu Ruijia, you’re not wrong in the head, are you?” Ye Yao looked him up and down, as if he was looking at some rare creature.

The small investors who’d made a fortune over the years due to following Baofeng Media were too many to count. Ye Fei was a nobody, and both put together, even a fool knew which side to choose.

He wanted to mock them a little bit more, but as he was about to speak, an idea came to mind. He said, “Having said all these, don’t go investing behind our backs, otherwise it would be really amusing.”

“Don’t worry,” Gu Ruijia’s eyes hurt upon seeing the other’s triumphant expression, and he firmly dragged in Sun Qiong and Zhou Zhensheng, “It’s not just me, we won’t invest.”

Sun Qiong and Zhou Zhensheng, who were suddenly dragged in: “…”

No, they hadn’t decided yet!

However, Gu Ruijia’s words had already been said, and it was difficult for the two to slap him in the face on the spot, so they pinched their noses and stood by him.

Forget it, they weren’t short of money anyway, and this opportunity was already gone. Ye Fei was a good person, and if one thought about it, losing money in exchange for a true friend was well worth it.

Reaching his goal, Ye Yao showed a smug smile. “Remember what you said today, I’ll wait to see you cry—”

“Ye Yao.” Before he could finish speaking, Ye Fei interrupted him.

Ye Fei raised his eyes and looked at him with interest. “Such a lucrative project, how much money do you plan to invest?”

Ye Yao raised his chin and seriously said, “Dad gave me ten million.”

Damn cheap!

Unable to restrain his temper, Gu Ruijia slapped a hand to the table and stood up, but was held down by Ye Fei.

Ye Fei sneered and deliberately said, “Oh, it’s only ten million.”

Ye Yao was quite satisfied, but upon hearing Ye Fei’s blatant disdain, he somehow felt a little embarrassed. His look changed, and before his mind could react, he added another sentence, “This is only the first payment, the other half has yet to be invested.”

“Really?”

“Of course!”

Ye Fei looked down and drank, hiding the smile in his eyes. Ye Yao’s personality was vain and arrogant. Since the words had been said, even if Ye Yao had to fight for air in front of him, he would get another 10 million from Father Ye.

The amount of working capital that the Ye family could currently provide amounted to this number, unless they sold real estate as an extra.

He wondered what his father’s face would look like when he lost both wife and army 1. Just thinking about it, he couldn’t wait.

Ye Fei was familiar with the family’s financial situation, and Ye Yao obviously did too. After mentally calculating it, he no longer wanted to make trouble, and hurriedly left the bar with a few friends.

“Ye Yao, do you really want to invest more?” a friend asked.

“Yeah,” Ye Yao replied perfunctorily as he lowered his head and sent a WeChat message to Father Ye.

His friend sighed in envy: “Your dad is truly good to you.”

“That’s for sure!” Ye Yao put down his phone, and was about to call the porter to drive his car over when he suddenly remembered something. He rolled his eyes, clicked on Yan Xiao’s contact on Wechat and sent a message.

【The most dazzling 2: Xiao ge, I just ran across my brother at the BOSD bar, you guys are not together ah. He is really good at playing, so why can’t I do it? Am I so stupid QAQ.】

He really couldn’t reconcile with the fact that he was unable to stop Ye Fei, so he simply started with Yan Xiao. He didn’t believe that Yan Xiao would remain indifferent upon seeing such news.

As expected, Yan Xiao did not remain indifferent, and after confirming that BOSD was indeed a bar, he immediately ordered the driver to drive him there. On the way, due to an elder’s sense of responsibility towards the younger generation, he truthfully gave Ye Yao a reply—

【Yan Xiao: Yes. 】

Ye Yao: “???”

Ye Yao: “…”

Ye Yao was so incensed that his features twisted and he almost threw his phone away, but even after calming down, he still couldn’t hold back and fiercely spat, “Pei! 3 A pair of psychopaths!”

In the bar, once Ye Yao’s figure could no longer be seen, Gu Ruijia’s aggressive manner promptly disappeared and he immediately collapsed back to his seat. “Hey, that show really can’t earn money? Damn, I regret it a little, a Baofeng Media key project ah! What a great pity to miss it.”

Exactly.

Sun Qiong and Zhou Zhensheng followed him in sighing, but of what use was regret; who made Gu Ruijia blather so much just a moment ago.

“It’s not a pity.” Ye Fei involuntarily squinted his eyes as the lights above dazzled him. “I recently discovered a potential stock. Take out your investment capital and buy this one, you are guaranteed not to lose money. “

Ye Fei didn’t have much knowledge regarding the financial field, but he’d paid attention to the stock market in his past life, and conveniently remembered a lot of blue-chip stocks.

What he told Gu Ruijia was one of them. With the overall plunge in the U.S. stock market, it was hard to forget how such a dark horse had suddenly emerged.

“Are you sure?”

Ye Fei nodded.

Gu Ruijia pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took out his mobile phone: “Okay, I’ll buy it!” 

After a pause, he looked at Ye Fei with bright eyes. “You can’t fuck me over, bro, I’m betting everything this time round!”

“Don’t worry.”

Sun Qiong and Zhou Zhensheng didn’t trust Ye Fei as much as Gu Ruijia did, so they just bought a little to give him face. Seeing this, Ye Fei did not insist on it.

After another round of drinking, Ye Fei felt a little dizzy. He rubbed his temples and pushed Gu Ruijia who was sitting by the outer part of the booth: “Let me pass.”

“What for,” the alcohol had long reached Gu Ruijia’s brain, and refusing to move, he grabbed Ye Fei’s arm and kept him in place, “Want to run when you can’t fight?”

“Run, my ass…” Ye Fei kicked his leg. “I’m going to the bathroom.”

“Oh, the bathroom.” It took Gu Ruijia two seconds before he understood what Ye Fei meant. Gulping down his drink, he stood up. “I’ll go too, let’s go together.”

“Are you a primary school student? Still have to go to the toilet together.”

Although Gu Ruijia’s alcohol tolerance was good, he refused to eat at all. Sobering up, he immediately retorted, “You’re a primary school student!”

Ye Fei pushed open the bathroom’s door. “I’m not small, mine is bigger than yours.”

Gu Ruijia: “…”

“Fuck,” Gu Ruijia roughly rubbed his face, walked into a cubicle, and said while peeing, “Does your family’s Yan Xiao know how wild you are?”

Ye Fei scoffed. “My family’s?”

Gu Ruijia: “Isn’t it yours or mine?” After a pause, he said, “Forget it, straight men don’t deserve it.”

Momentarily silent, Ye Fei then said, “I’m going to get a divorce.”

“Divorce?” Gu Ruijia shuddered and almost peed on his pants. It took him a while to find his voice. “What’s the matter? He cheated?”

The contract prepared by Yan Xiao had an absolute confidentiality clause, meaning that under no circumstances could the truth behind their marital status be disclosed to a third party. Therefore, Gu Ruijia only thought they’d had a flash marriage, and had been shocked and ridiculed Ye Fei for a long time.

“No, don’t slander people.”

“Then why do you suddenly want a divorce?” Gu Ruijia unconsciously  raised his voice.

The thin wooden door was pulled open from the outside, making a soft noise that didn’t attract anyone’s attention. The sturdy body of a man was just about to walk in when he abruptly stopped upon hearing the question.

Ye Fei raised his eyebrows. “Why not leave? Are tough guys not good to tease, and fresh meat better?”

“No,” Gu Ruijia didn’t expect his best friend to be such a slag of a sugarcane man 4, and asked after a while, “What about Yan Xiao? You don’t have… you don’t have any feelings for him at all?”

Ye Fei curled his lips into a smile, and the gentle voice drifted into the ears of outsiders.

“No.”
