Jiang Yunshen hesitated for a moment before handing the apple to her and asking, ‘Mom, actually, Dad hasn’t been good to you all these years. Have you thought about getting a divorce?”

Wu Suyun’s hand that was holding the apple trembled visibly. She lowered her eyes and didn’t say anything.

Jiang Yunshen added, “Mom, I’ve grown up. I can take care of you in the future. In a few years, I’ll find a wife to give birth to a plump grandson for you. We can live very happily.”

Wu Suyun looked up at him and said earnestly, “But he’s your father.”

Jiang Yunshen frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Actually, I know that he has had other women outside all these years. He doesn’t care about you or me at all. He only wants to fight with Big Brother for the family assets, but I don’t want to fight at all.”

After so many years, he was used to his status as Second Young Master Jiang. If his eldest brother had a project for him to do, he would do it. If his eldest brother had nothing for him to do, he would be the Jiang Family’s prodigious second generation silk pants and play happily with a group of bad friends.

He had never thought about being the person in charge of the Jiang Family or the President of the Tianyue Group.

“Mom, he’s not worth you aggrieving yourself like this anymore. If you’re worried about me, there’s even less of a need.” It was rare for Jiang Yunshen to not be as cynical as usual. He said seriously, “I’ve grown up now. I just want to take care of you and be filial to you.”

Wu Suyun looked at his serious baby face. Her memory was clearly still that of the little boy who cried if he didn’t get his candy. In the blink of an eye, he had grown up.

Like a real man who could take on responsibility.

“Alright, let Mom think about it.”

When Jiang Yunshen heard her say this, the corners of his mouth cracked open, revealing his cute little canine teeth. “Mom, I’ll definitely find you a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law and give birth to a fat kid for you to take care of. I guarantee that you won’t be bored every day.

Jiang Chongjing was furious with Jiang Yunshen. He didn’t go anywhere else but returned to the Jiang Residence.

During this period of time, Li Guilan was like a street rat that was hated by everyone. Even her former friends who played mahjong with her ignored her.

These few days, she had been feeling extremely aggrieved at home. When Jiang Chongjing came in, he saw her throwing the cup on the back of the servant’s foot. It hurt so much that the servant’s face turned pale. The servant was filled with anger but didn’t dare to flare up.

People like them had signed contracts and received money. No matter how angry they were with the employer, they could only endure it.

When Li Guilan saw him coming, she said impatiently, “Get lost, get lost. All of you.”

When the servants heard this, they all returned to the kitchen to hide.

“Didn’t you say that you could chase Jiang Yanshen out of Tianyue Group? Why is it like this now?” Li Guilan said angrily with a tense expression.

Jiang Chongjing was also filled with anger and held it in. “Let’s talk upstairs.”

Li Guilan hesitated for a moment before getting up and walking to the second floor.

As soon as she entered the bedroom and closed the door, she said impatiently,

“What’s wrong with you? Not only did you not chase Jiang Yanshen out of Tianyue Group, you even ruined my reputation.”

Jiang Chongjing glared at her with his dark eyes. “It’s all because you gave birth to a good son. He set a trap for me long ago. Now, not only did we not chase him away, but I’m also in a terrible situation.”

“Then what should we do now?” Li Guilan asked impatiently.

Jiang Chongjing took a deep breath and said, “Lend me some money. I’ll settle the debt first and think of a way to deal with Jiang Yanshen.”

“Again?” Li Guilan’s expression immediately changed. “Didn’t I give you a sum of money to buy shares last time?”

“They were all taken away by Jiang Yanshen.” Jiang Chongjing was furious at the mention of this. “Lend me some more.”

“I’ve already lent you all my money. How can I have any more money to lend you?” Li Guilan’s impatient tone was mixed with displeasure.

Jiang Chongjing frowned. “You don’t have it, but Li Dashun does! Don’t think that I don’t know how much benefit you’ve gotten for him using your identity as Madam Jiang all these years.”

“You!” Li Guilan’s eyes widened.

Jiang Chongjing hugged her shoulder and said in a gloomy voice, “Sister-in-law, you also know how many women Li Dashun has outside! You’ve sacrificed so much for him. It’s time for him to repay you.”

When Li Guilan heard him say this, she looked a little hesitant.

Jiang Chongjing continued to persuade her. “We’re in the same boat. Li Dashun is just coveting your money.”

How could Li Guilan not know what he was talking about? She was just indignant.

She should have been Mrs. Li, but after being Madam Jiang for so many years, her efforts had become a joke when she saw Li Dashun get married and have children.

Ever since Li Ruzhu was imprisoned, Li Dashun had ignored her even more. Recently, he didn’t even pick up her calls.

Jiang Chongjing caught the unwillingness in her eyes and leaned close to her ear. “Sister-in-law, I’m different from him. I know how good you are…” The warm breath made her tremble involuntarily. “Jiang Chongjing…” “Call me Chongjing…

Accompanied by the warm breath was the sound of the belt being unbuckled.

During the monsoon season in Lan City, there would be a sudden downpour every two to three days. It would not be long, just enough to wash away the ostentatiousness of the city.

Lin Qingqian felt the cold wind blowing in from the window again. She turned off the computer and got up to close the window. It was still raining outside.

Seeing that it was getting late, she picked up her handbag and turned off the lights before walking out of the office.

Outside was Su Ying and the others’ office. It was dark, and only the neon lights outside the window could vaguely be seen.

Lin Qingqian had only taken a few steps when she heard footsteps, followed by the flicker of a candle flame and a chorus of the birthday song.

“Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to Qianqian.”

Lin Qingqian was stunned as she looked blankly at Han Liubai, who was holding a cake, and Suisui and Su Ying, who were standing behind him, as well as the other colleagues and subordinates.

“You guys—” She couldn’t hide the joy in her eyes.

“Happy birthday, Qianqian.” Suisui gestured. “Are you surprised?”

Lin Qingqian glared at her. Without asking, she knew that she was the one who did it. Otherwise, how would the others know that today was her birthday?

“Happy birthday, Director Lin.” Han Liubai’s gentle voice slowly sounded.

“Make a wish and blow out the candles.”

Lin Qingqian actually didn’t have any wishes. She clasped her hands and pretended to make a wish. After dozens of seconds, she opened her eyes and blew out the candle.

Someone turned on the lights and the darkness was driven away.

“Sister Qingqian, happy birthday.” Su Ying handed her the knife to cut the cake.

“Thank you.” Lin Qingqian made the first cut on the cake, and Han Liubai took the knife from her very gentlemanly.

“Let me do it.”

Lin Qingqian raised her eyebrows. “Alright.”

Han Liubai cut the first piece of cake and handed it to the birthday girl before giving it to the others.

Suisui stood beside her with the cake and said in a low voice, “It’s your birthday today. Did Jiang Yanshen prepare any surprises for you?”

..Jiang Yanshen !

Upon hearing this name, Lin Qingqian was in a daze for a few seconds. She couldn’t remember how long it had been since she last saw him.

It seemed to have been a century.

Seeing that her expression was not right, Suisui exclaimed, “No way? He didn’t even express anything on your birthday?”

Lin Qingqian frowned slightly. “We are in a cold war now.”

To be precise, it was a one-sided cold war. Jiang Yanshen sent her WeChat messages every day, and she… basically didn’t reply.

“But he can’t not express anything at all.” Suisui gritted her teeth and the fork in her hand was about to poke a hole in the plate. “That Dog of a man is still a

Dog of a man.”

Lin Qingqian didn’t comment.

“It’s fine. Fortunately, I was prepared. After eating the cake, we’ll go have fun!” Suisui clenched her fists, looking like she was about to do something big.

Lin Qingqian blinked. “Fun?”

Suisui: “I’ve booked a private room at the Crown KTV. We’ll play all night!!” “When did you book it for?” Lin Qingqian was slightly surprised.

Suisui took out her phone and raised her chin proudly. “Now, immediately, immediately! ”

Lin Qingqian: ‘

Today was her birthday, and it was also Valentine’s Day, so even though it was rammg, tne atmospnere outside was still very lively.

Especially since the KTV was almost full. It wasn’t easy for Suisui to snatch a large private room, so the main group rushed over.

As soon as she entered the private room, Suisui asked the attendant to deliver five bottles of red wine, two buckets of beer, and a pile of snacks.

Lin Qingqian frowned. “Isn’t this too much?”

“Not much, not much!” Suisui hooked her arm around her shoulder and said heroically, “The fees for the private room tonight will be on me. The drinks will be on Xiao Bai, and the snacks will be on Su Ying and the others. This is our birthday gift to you. How is it?!”

Han Liubai smiled gently. “Yes, you can drink as much as you want tonight. The alcohol will be on me.”

Immediately, cheers came from the private room.

Seeing that everyone was so happy, Lin Qingqian didn’t want to dampen the mood, so she let them drink. At most, she would give them half a day off tomorrow.

Tonight, she was the birthday girl. There was no way she could avoid being forced to drink.

Han Liubai was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable after drinking so he wanted to help her drink.

Lin Qingqian’s plain face was red from drinking. She smiled and said, “It’s alright, my alcohol tolerance is alright.”

The main reason was that Xiao Bai’s health was not good. She didn’t want him to help her block the alcohol.

Han Liubai was about to say something when he heard Suisui say, “Aiya, don’t worry. Qianqian won’t be drunk.”

He could only watch helplessly as they drank.

Lin Qingqian didn’t know how much wine she had been forced to drink. In any case, she would drink if someone toasted her. After drinking a stomach full of alcohol, she wanted to go to the washroom.

In the mirror, her plain face was red and the corners of her mouth were curled up, but the disappointment in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.

She took out her phone and glanced at the screen. It was so clean that there was not even a trashy message.

She lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. He probably did not even know that today was his birthday!

Taking a deep breath to chase away the cloud of depression in her heart, she pretended to smile happily and turned to return to the private room.

Some people in the private room were singing with wild shrieks and howls, some were finger-guessing, and some were gossiping. There was laughter.

Lin Qingqian sat down, and Han Liubai handed her a glass of fruit juice and asked with concern, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” Lin Qingqian smiled. There was no change in her indifferent expression.

Just as she was about to speak, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open. When the tall figure appeared, everyone was stunned.

The light in the private room was very dim, and Jiang Yanshen’s sharp eyes immediately locked onto Lin Qingqian among the group of people.

He walked over directly..
