Jiang Yu was engaged in a conversation with the woman.

Jin Xue couldn’t discern the content of their discussion, but she witnessed Jiang Yu smiling.

Though it was a faint smile, as gentle as a spring breeze, it clashed with the cold expression she usually encountered.

Momentarily stunned, Jin Xue slowed her pace.

After Jiang Yu exited the emergency department, she hurriedly made her way there.

By 8:30 in the morning, Jin Xue returned to Pearl Lake Villa.

Jiang Yu’s Rolls-Royce was nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps he hadn’t been home at all the previous night.

Jin Xue couldn’t help but think of the woman with sweet and gentle features and long straight hair.

At that moment, the sole thought in Jin Xue’s mind was to expedite the divorce process.

She opened the fridge and discarded all the Chinese medicine without hesitation.

Resolutely, she moved into the guest room.

Aunt Zhen glanced at Madam but dared not utter a word or inquire further.

She had covertly contacted Sir.

Sir showed no anger and had no objections to Madam’s actions.

After taking a shower and applying a facial mask, Jin Xue prepared to catch up on sleep.

Suddenly, a sound from the television caught her attention. The Jiang

Corporation announced the acquisition of the Xiao Corporation. Additionally, the Jiang Corporation terminated its partnership with the Yishan Corporation.

With someone taking care of the Xiao Corporation, her father could rest assured. Jin Xue laughed self-deprecatingly.

However, Jin Xue felt a bit perplexed.

The Yishan Corporation was her mother-in-law’s family business. Why had the Jiang Corporation abruptly ended their partnership?

Jin Xue checked the stock market. The share prices of both the Xiao Corporation and Yishan Corporation plummeted.

It was highly likely that the market would dip below 5% by noon.

At this moment, her mother-in-law must be running around in a frenzy, right?

Her mother-in-law also had times when she needed assistance, correct?

A sincere smile emerged from the depths of Jin Xue’s heart. She felt a profound sense of satisfaction!

As Jin Yue exited the noodle shop, she was surprised to see Gu Zhou.

His face was covered in bruises. Slowly dragging a suitcase and carrying a bag, he appeared disheveled.

After a brief hesitation, Jin Yue hurriedly approached him.

“Doctor Gu, what a coincidence! Are you leaving Shen City?”

Upon seeing Jin Yue, Gu Zhou seemed to glimpse a glimmer of hope.

He was reluctant to depart from Shen City just like that.

His hatred for Jin Xue burned within him, and he couldn’t let go of it!

“Jin Yue, do you dare to take me in?”

Jin Yue smiled. “Jin Xue has been heartless toward you. You seem quite pitiful! Well, I’ll show some kindness and accumulate some virtue for her, so she won’t face punishment from the heavens in the future. I have a small apartment, but it might not be fair to you.”

Ambition gleamed in Gu Zhou’s eyes. A small apartment was a significant improvement compared to sleeping in the park. “You’re a good person. I can’t thank you enough!”

“Come with me.” Jin Yue’s smile deepened. She had a plan in mind.

Her mother had bribed her father’s lavvyer. She had also learned from her mother that her father had revised his will, designating Jin Xue as the sole heir to the Jin Corporation.

She had assumed that the Jin Corporation would be hers once she drove Jin Xue out of the Jin family through their marriage alliance. But her father’s extreme bias had caught her off guard. He must have gone mad.

The more she pondered, the angrier Jin Yue grew. She couldn’t possibly hand over the Jin Corporation to Jin Xue.

She intended to use Gu Zhou to deal with Jin Xue.

In the afternoon, Jin Xue received a call from her grandmother.

Her grandmother requested her presence at the small apartment. An agent had come to assess the property, and her grandmother wanted Jin Xue to negotiate a favorable price with the agent.

Despite their strained relationship, Jin Xue agreed to visit the small apartment and discuss the price out of respect for her grandmother.

As she opened the door and took a few steps inside, Jin Xue suddenly found herself seized by a strong force.

She realized it was Gu Zhou as he dragged her onto the sofa.

Gu Zhou had her firmly pinned down.

“Jin Xue!”

Glancing over, Jin Xue spotted Jiang Yu standing at the doorway..
