After eight years of coldness, you're asking for a divorce? I'm signing the papers, what&#

Chapter 362 Want to go to Jiang Huaixu's side?

As Zhao Zheng savored the wine, he slowly said, "Whether they love each other or not, their relationship is no longer as simple as that of ordinary friends."

Zhao Yizhou sneered and said, "Indeed, Evelynn is well aware of how much Jiang Huaixu has sacrificed for her, so she can't possibly feel at ease getting back together with Sheng Tingchen. She's truly pathetic!"

Zhao Zheng said, "Who told her to fall for Sheng Tingchen? Women are so shallow. Love and affection can trap them for life, and they are destined to be controlled by men."

That's all.

He changed the subject and asked, "What's the situation with Boheng right now?"

Zhao Yizhou said, "Ren Gang is also a good-for-nothing. I overestimated him. Pei Yu has been watching his every move. But Pei Yu must have someone arranging things for him beforehand. Anyway, Jiang Yu wants to marry Pei Yu with Ya Ya. No way." As he spoke, a sinister glint appeared in his eyes.

It was Jiang Huaixu who held leverage over him, forcing him to divorce; otherwise, how could he have let Jiang Yu divorce him?

Zhao Yizhou took the wine glass handed to him by the beautiful woman and said, "To be honest, I would rather Evelynn and Sheng Tingchen just stay together like this. Jiang Huaixu loves but cannot have her, so it would be best if Evelynn and Sheng Tingchen torment each other."

The words fell.

Zhao Zheng's phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked up his phone from the sofa, saw the caller ID, and his handsome face remained indifferent.

Zhao Yizhou looked at him and said, "Was that a call from An Qingyue?"

Zhao Zheng hummed in agreement.

A mocking smile played on Zhao Yizhou's lips as he said, "So, you've come to check up on me?"

That night.

Jiang Huaixu left the company at 9 p.m.

The car was parked outside the company gate.

As I passed through the company lobby, I saw Lu Xue sitting on a sofa in the rest area.

When Lu Xue saw him, she stood up and walked over. She was wearing a well-tailored black and white trench coat, her long curly hair was neatly styled, and her makeup was exquisite. She had a dignified and elegant demeanor.

She walked up to Jiang Huaixu, looked up at him, and called out, "Professor Jiang."

Jiang Huaixu looked at her expressionlessly. "What brings you here so late?"

Lu Xue asked, "Professor Jiang, could we talk somewhere else?"

"No need, just say what you want to say." The voice was cold and distant.

Lu Xue didn't press the matter. She smiled slightly and said, "I didn't come here for anything else. I just wanted to remind you, Professor Jiang, that now that President Sheng is willing to make such a big concession because of Evelynn, Rong En should also be involved in the XX construction project. Why not take this opportunity to seek greater benefits for yourself?"

Jiang Huaixu lowered his eyes, his dark pupils behind his glasses deep and unfathomable. "Miss Lu is Sheng Tingchen's assistant, so it's probably inappropriate for her to say these things to me."

Lu Xue sighed softly, her eyes gently fixed on the man before her. "Professor Jiang, why are you so persistent? As a mother, Evelynn can't let go of her child. The deeper the love, the deeper the hate. President Sheng and Evelynn are destined to be entangled for life. Why do you have to get involved, Professor Jiang?"

Jiang Huaixu indifferently withdrew his gaze. He did not respond to Lu Xue's words and strode away.

The driver opened the car door.

Jiang Huaixu bent down and got into the car.

The vehicle slowly drove away.

Lu Xue stood still, staring intently in the direction the vehicle had driven away.

The next day.

Yunshan Group.

Inside the CEO's office.

Lu Xue knocked on the door and entered, stopping in front of the desk. She looked at Sheng Tingchen and respectfully greeted him, "President Sheng."

Sheng Tingchen did not look up, continuing with his work.

Lu Xue stood upright and dignified, her expression calm and composed, without the slightest hint of panic.

It wasn't until Sheng Tingchen finished processing a document in his hand, put it aside, leaned back in his chair, and looked at her with his dark eyes, giving her an invisible but compelling pressure.

Lu Xue lowered her eyes, waiting for Sheng Tingchen to ask a question.

"Why did you choose Spruce in the first place?" Sheng Tingchen asked, his tone revealing little emotion.

Lu Xue slowly raised her eyes and replied, "I hope I can have more room to grow. Working alongside President Sheng would be both an honor and a test for me, and I prefer to take on challenging work."

Since she joined the company, she has completed every task exceptionally well, just as well as Rong Shu was when she worked for him.

Therefore, Sheng Tingchen had no objections to her work.

"If you had to choose between Rong En and Yun Shan, who would you choose?"

Lu Xue met the man's eyes, her heart clenching involuntarily. She tried her best to remain calm and assured him, "President Sheng, I am now with Yunshan, and I have absolutely no other intentions."

Sheng Tingchen narrowed his dark eyes slightly, and his voice deepened, "Answer my question."

Lu Xue tightened her grip and said, "I will still choose Spruce."

Sheng Tingchen, "The reason?"

Lu Xue felt the atmosphere around her gradually solidify. She could almost hear her own heartbeat. She took a deep breath and said, "If Evelynn is in Ronne, I will not choose Ronne."

The words fell.

The entire office fell silent.

Sheng Tingchen tapped his index finger up and down on the armrest, saying, "So afraid of being outdone?"

Lu Xue said, "It's not that I'm afraid of being outdone; it's just that we're destined to never work together in the same company, face to face."

Sheng Tingchen gave a low, cold laugh that sent chills down one's spine. "Lu Xue, you're still too arrogant. You put yourself on too high a pedestal, yet you only know how to use such underhanded methods."

Lu Xue tensed up. She didn't try to defend herself; to do so in front of Sheng Tingchen would be tantamount to courting death.

"If everyone in this world were upright and honest, the world would be a better place long ago. I am not a good person, I just want to do something for you according to President Sheng's wishes."

Sheng Tingchen looked at her, his dark eyes becoming exceptionally deep. "You're quite good at guessing. Whether it's following my wishes or for your own selfish desires, I'm just part of your scheme."

Lu Xue lowered her head and said urgently and sincerely, "I absolutely did not mean to scheme against you, Mr. Sheng. I just wanted Evelynn to be with you."

In a short time.

Her palms were sweating profusely.

Although she had long anticipated this moment and was mentally prepared, she knew that in front of someone like Sheng Tingchen, the only way to survive was to reveal her purpose.

But when faced with Sheng Tingchen's interrogation, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid.

She's gambling.

"Do you want to go work for Jiang Huaixu?" Sheng Tingchen suddenly asked.

Lu Xue said, "This is no longer a question of whether I want to or not."

The words fell.

half an hour.

All that could be heard was the man's cold command, "Get out."

Upon hearing this...

Lu Xue nodded and bowed, "Yes!"

She then turned and left the office. As she stepped out, she took a deep breath, as if she had come back to life.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, a faint smile appeared on her lips, proving that she had made the right bet.

Suddenly remembering what Rong Shu had said earlier that day, his face darkened, and he quickly left, taking out his phone to call his father.
