I Just Want to Divorce

In the bar, Zhou Zhensheng and Sun Qiong hadn’t yet drank to their heart’s content. While Ye Fei and Gu Ruijia were in the bathroom, they ordered a few more drinks, planning to mix and drink them together later.

Who would have imagined that in the period of time the two were gone, only Gu Ruijia would come back.

Zhou Zhensheng looked behind him. “Where’s Ye Fei?”

He had a problem; he liked to play with good-looking people, regardless of gender. It could be said that he was quite handsome.

Gu Ruijia drank the remaining liquor in his glass, let out a long sigh, and said, “Went back.”

“How could that be?” Zhou Zhensheng frowned and said unhappily, “Didn’t we say that we wouldn’t go home until completely wasted?”

“The one from his family came to pick him up.” Gu Ruijia waved his hand, as if he didn’t want to say more. Grabbing a few slices of dried bananas and stuffing them into his mouth, he chewed and changed the subject. “Something’s wrong, didn’t Old Sun say there are good-looking girls here?”

Among them, except for Ye Fei, they were all heterosexual.

Sun Qiong was originally a little unhappy about Ye Fei’s sudden departure, but when Gu Ruijia mentioned the girls, he immediately became interested. “Right, right, I’ll go to the manager right now.”

The three hit it off and ordered a few random names that were pleasant to the ear, rolling up their sleeves and eager to try.

However, they were quickly disappointed. The girls were indeed really good-looking, but they all had the same big eyes, high nose bridge and pointed chin; one could see at first glance that the girls were all half-sisters from the same father.

“Forget it, let’s just go.” Gu Ruijia and Zhou Zhensheng gave a tip to send the people away, slapped Sun Qiong and left the scene in despair.

“Next time, we can’t listen to Old Sun,” Zhou Zhensheng grumbled, and didn’t stop until he got into the car.

Sun Qiong felt vexed by what he said, and impatiently closed the car door. “I’m a victim too.” Seeing that Zhou Zhensheng still wanted to refute, he hurriedly made a gesture to the driver. “Let’s go, let’s go.”

The white Porsche slowly drove out of the parking lot. Zhou Zhensheng closed his eyes for a moment, and after the smell of alcohol had dissipated a little, he took out his mobile phone.

The first person in the WeChat chatting box was Ye Fei, who’d just been added tonight。

Zhou Zhensheng’s fingers moved to add a note under the business number in order to avoid searching for it, then clicked on Ye Fei’s Moments and snooped around.

He looked east and west at all of the other’s Moments until he finally got home.

Zhou Zhensheng hiccuped and pushed the door open. Just as he was about to bend over to change his shoes, a large pillow slammed into his face, and Mother Zhou’s roar came from behind him. “You still know how to come back?”

The Zhou family was in the household appliances business, and their products were sold both in China and abroad. In recent years, the industry had been in a slump, and the Zhou family’s parents were thinking of change. Considering Zhou Zhensheng’s young age, they’d thought he might have some new ideas.

Who could have known that their family’s son would turn into a failure, not having any ideas and even going out to fool around every day.

Mother Zhou was a hot-tempered woman, known as the Iron Lady in the business world. She’d scolded Zhou Zhensheng several times already, and seeing that he was still doing things his own way, today at last she couldn’t help but finally tear into her son.

“Mom…” Zhou Zhensheng had already experienced being beaten up a dozen times, he didn’t need to reminisce about it at all. He grabbed the pillow with his right hand. “I’m going to do business.”

Mother Zhou sneered, “A business? What are you talking about?”

Zhou Zhensheng scratched his head and sat down beside her. “Aren’t I interested in investing in film and television dramas recently? I have a friend who I’ve known for a long while, so I went to meet up with him.”

“Oh?” Mother Zhou raised her eyebrows, still in disbelief. “What did you find out?”

“Just…” Zhou Zhensheng paused before saying, “There is a TV series based on a novel. I wanted to invest in it, but my friend advised me not to do so.”

Mother Zhou knew her son well, he lacked his own opinions and pretty much agreed with everything. How could she not see his hesitation?

“Tell me, what else is going on here?”

Zhou Zhensheng gulped, knowing his mother couldn’t be fooled, so he had to tell the whole story, “The TV series is favourably seen by Baofeng Media, but my friend doesn’t recommend…”

Before he could finish speaking, he was beaten down by Mother Zhou with the pillow.

“How did I give birth to a foolish son like you!” Mother Zhou hated iron for not becoming steel 1. “That old fox Li Youlong can’t compare with you? Who’s your friend?”

Li Youlong was Li Zhongyuan’s father and the chairman of Baofeng Media.

Zhou Zhensheng was beaten so hard that he fled around the house. While dodging in a panic, he didn’t forget to defend Ye Fei, “My friend said he has inside information!”

“So who’s your friend?”

“The eldest son of the owner of Dingyuan Entertainment, Ye Fei.”

Mother Zhou: “…”

A small film and television company that has never been heard of, how could there be any inside information?

Mother Zhou was so angry with her stupid son that she said, “Go ahead, what else did he say to you?”

Also talked about stocks…

But looking at his mother’s enraged face, Zhou Zhensheng didn’t dare to speak at all, and shook his head like a rattle: “No more.”

Mother Zhou glared at him: “Tell me the truth!”

“What else…” Zhou Zhensheng stammered and whispered, “He said there was a stock that could rise up, so I bought it…”

Mother Zhou’s eyes turned dark. “How much did you buy?”

Zhou Zhensheng hurriedly said, “Not much, not much, I just spent two million.” After speaking, he laughed twice.

Mother Zhou was at the end of her patience. She ferociously slapped Zhou Zhensheng on the back of his head. “Tomorrow, you’ll immediately sell me that stock!” Seeing that Zhou Zhensheng still wanted to speak, she flew over with a knife. “I haven’t finished yet! If there’s still that TV series, you should follow Baofeng Media.”

Zhou Zhensheng was a little reluctant, although he was also very moved. However, Gu Ruijia had already sworn in front of Ye Yao, who would he be if he changed his mind again!

“Mom, we all agreed.”

“I don’t care if you agreed or not!” Mother Zhou gracefully brushed back a few strands of hair, and snorted coldly. “You will go to Li Zhongyuan early in the morning. If you don’t…”

She paused and looked at Zhou Zhensheng. “Your friend has inside information, right? I want to see him.”

This person was only the second generation child of a small company, yet dared to cheat her son. He really had a wolf’s heart and the guts of a leopard.

Zhou Zhensheng’s scalp immediately felt numb, and he raised his hands in surrender. “The US stocks I bought will not be sold tomorrow! I promise this will be the last time, and in return I’ll look for Li Zhongyuan?”

It wasn’t that he was insincere towards his friends, but because his mother was just too authoritative. He dared not disobey her orders, so he could only feel sorry for Ye Fei and Gu Ruijia.

Zhou Zhensheng wanted to send a message to Gu Ruijia, but he continuously couldn’t think of what to say. The next morning, he got up with a bump on his head and dejectedly and depressedly went to Baofeng Media.

Unfortunately, Li Zhongyuan went out to talk about the project and wasn’t in the company.

While Zhou Zhensheng was regretful, he still breathed a sigh of relief. Before going to bed at night, he’d secretly prayed in his heart that it’d be best if Li Zhongyuan couldn’t be found tomorrow.

With worries in his heart, he wasn’t able to sleep much at night, and he’d gotten up before eight o’clock. After washing up, he suddenly remembered the stock Ye Fei had asked him to buy.

Let’s take a look, if it’s no good, I’ll sell it off tonight, Zhou Zhensheng squinted and opened the trading software.

Zhou Zhensheng’s phone fell on the bridge of his nose.

A few seconds later, Zhou Zhensheng’s heart-wrenching roar sounded from the luxuriously decorated floor: “Mom!!!”

As a domineering female president, Mother Zhou was very busy every day. Upon finally getting a chance to sleep in, she was woken up by her noisy son. She opened the door with a dark face, and gritted her teeth. “It better be something important.”

Zhou Zhensheng waved his hands and handed the phone to his mother. “Mom, take a look, take a look.”

Mother Zhou took a closer look and said in a sullen voice, “What strange rarity do you see, the stock has risen by 25.4%—”

Mother Zhou’s eyes suddenly widened.

She grabbed the mobile phone, exited the website and reentered. After confirming that the increased percentage displayed above was indeed true and that there was no problem with the system, she turned to look at Zhou Zhensheng. “Son, what is your friend’s name?”

Zhou Zhensheng: “…”

A similar thing happened in the Sun family.

“Hahahaha, serves them right! Who told them not to believe you and buy so little.” Early in the morning, before Ye Fei woke up, he received a call from Gu Ruijia. Over the phone, his voice was very excited. “Ye Fei bro, if the esteemed wife won’t help, I will obey you! You have the final say in the future of Tianxi’s projects! I promise not to hold you back!”

Ye Fei: “…That’s not necessary.”

He was brought back in time to be a salted fish, not to continue working hard!

But at present, he really couldn’t dismiss the matter of Tianxi, he had to at least earn back the money he owed Yan Xiao.

Ye Fei rubbed his brows. “I have time to visit the company these few days.”

Gu Ruijia repeatedly nodded. “Okay.” He had always been big-hearted, and had no great ambition. It was better to hold a big thigh than to work hard on his own.

After the two said a few more words, Ye Fei hung up and went to the dining room.

It was still early. Auntie had already made breakfast and left. There was only Yan Xiao at the table.

Ye Fei glanced at the table, saw the purple potato and spinach, and knew that today was Tuesday.

Without him, Yan Xiao’s breakfast was made every day and never changed. Ye Fei had lived with him for more than two years, and even if he didn’t remember it deliberately, he more or less had an impression.

He poured a glass of milk and sat down, leaned his chin on one hand and looked at Yan Xiao with a smile. “Mr. Yan, what about breakfast?”

Ye Fei fixed his attention onto Yan Xiao. There was no expression on his face, but the speed of putting down his chopsticks got slower and slower… until he couldn’t eat anymore.

He pretended to be calm and turned his head, wanting to ask Ye Fei what the matter was. When he looked up, he paused.

Ye Fei was wearing a loose grey-blue nightgown with a low neckline, exposing a large expanse of his snow-white chest. A belt was loosely tied around his waist, emphasising his narrow, slender waist.

Yan Xiao’s Adam’s apple bobbed; he averted his eyes and didn’t dare look again, but after a few seconds, he involuntarily shifted his gaze back…

He kept looking at the scenery, unaware that the scenery was also looking at him.

Generally speaking, people were more or less swollen and uninspired upon waking up in the morning, but Yan Xiao’s back was perfectly straight, his eyes clear, and not a little bit exhausted. What was even more praiseworthy was that he also had a sense of cleanliness that transcended his age.

Ye Fei was really curious, where could someone like Yan Xiao be raised? Thinking this, he asked, “Mr. Yan, where is your hometown?”

Ye Fei didn’t know whether or not it was a mere misperception. He always felt that whenever this topic came up, Yan Xiao’s bright eyes would change all of a sudden.

“Song city,” he said, his eyes intently looking at Ye Fei’s face. “Why are you asking?”

“Oh, nothing.” Ye Fei smiled. “Asking casually.”

Seeing that Yan Xiao was still looking at him, Ye Fei took a sip of milk and added, “Song City is pretty good, I went there seven or eight years ago.”

Yan Xiao asked again, “And then?”

“Then?” Ye Fei saw how he looked like he wanted to go to the bottom of things. He was a little confused, and said in surprise, “What’s the matter? After eating, drinking, and travelling, I went home.”

Yan Xiao pursed his lips; he didn’t speak anymore and lowered his eyes, continuing to eat, but the atmosphere was slightly colder compared to before.

What happened? Ye Fei was baffled, he didn’t even say anything to provoke the other.

“Yan Xiao,” Ye Fei called out.

Yan Xiao didn’t answer.

“Yan Xiao.”

No answer.

Still can’t reach you?

Ye Fei narrowed his eyes, and the foot under the table rose up and repeatedly touched Yan Xiao’s lower legs. Like a dragonfly on the water, it provoked endless ripples on the calm lake.

“It seems that something is wrong with Mr. Yan’s hearing.”

He leaned forward, gazed at Yan Xiao, and his eyes slowly and subtly trailed downward. He said meaningfully, “Who knows whether other areas… also have a problem?”
