When he turned around, Xu Qingran’s eyes were already red with anger.

She gritted her teeth and pulled Lin Wanmeng towards Ye Lingxiao.

Lin Wanmeng finally managed to pull the furious Xu Qingran down, but the other party refused to give up. She looked at Lin Wanmeng in disbelief. “He’s entangled with another woman in front of you. Are you still going to endure it?”

Lin Wanmeng didn’t know how to explain and could only shake her head.

Seeing that Lin Wanmeng couldn’t explain it clearly, and seeing the two of them smiling at each other like partners, Xu Qingran felt that it was eye-catching and vowed to seek justice for Lin Wanmeng.

She grabbed the wine bottle from the waiter’s hand and was about to rush over.

The man who was about to drink his wine was robbed for nothing. Then, he saw Xu Qingran attacking Ye Lingxiao.

He, who didn’t like to meddle in other people’s business, was frightened and quickly stopped Xu Qingran.

“Are you going to commit murder in public?”

His tone was helpless. Suddenly, he glanced sideways and saw Lin Wanmeng, who was in a daze. The corners of his lips curled up. “So it’s Mrs. Ye.”

Seeing that Lin Wanmeng was a little confused, the other party took the initiative to introduce, “Zhou Zeyan.”

Lin Wanmeng had heard of this name before. It was said that he was Ye Lingxiao’s good friend.

Zhou Zeyan carefully sized up Lin Wanmeng. She was not as unbearable as the others said.

The woman in front of him had bright eyes and an indescribable beauty. Ye Lingxiao’s taste was not bad.

However, Xu Qingran, who was grabbed by him, was naturally unhappy. She twisted her wrist and broke free from Zhou Zeyan’s grip.

This attracted Zhou Zeyan’s gaze to her. He stared at her for a while and was suddenly a little surprised. “You’re Xu Qingran, right?”

Not far away, Bai Muwei also saw Zhou Zeyan. Her eyes lit up and she was about to go forward when she saw a woman beside him.

Upon closer inspection, it was actually an old acquaintance.

Bai Yamo finally came over from Ye Lingxiao’s side.

As soon as he arrived, he was about to talk to Old Master Bai when he saw Bai Muwei’s teary face.

She was angry and wanted to ignore him, but she saw a familiar figure. “Who is she?”

Bai Muwei’s eyes flashed with resentment. “Xu Qingran.”

Why were the two of them together?

Bai Yamo’s face darkened completely. She was so angry that her face turned red and she clenched her fists. “This… b*tch!”

In the corner of the banquet hall, Xu Qingran kicked Zhou Zeyan’s knee, but he dodged it.

Her eyes were sharp as she growled, “Let go of me!”

Zhou Zeyan chuckled, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. “Miss Xu, it’s not that I don’t want to let you go, but you have to tell me who you’re targeting with such a murderous aura?”

“It’s none of your business!” Xu Qingran glared at him, only to see him narrow his eyes and smile.

“If the person you saw is the same person as me, then it is indeed related to me.”

A familiar figure saw the farce happening in the corner and walked over with a smile.

“President Lin, you’re here.”

Zhou Zeyan’s expression turned cold when he saw He Yan. He let go of Xu Qingran, lowered his eyes, and turned to leave.

However, before he left, he whispered into Lin Wanmeng’s ear, “Ye Corporation and He Corporation are enemies. As Mrs. Ye, you should be careful to interact with him.”

Lin Wanmeng understood.

However, her marriage with Ye Lingxiao wouldn’t last long. If she offended both the Ye Corporation and the He Corporation, Qinyu wouldn’t even have a way out.

“President Lin, why are you always in trouble?” He Yan said dotingly.

Lin Wanmeng turned her face away. “CEO He is too kind. Is it worth it for the CEO to personally run for a business the size of the He Corporation’s Yueming Corporation?”

She looked up, her expression unperturbed. “Several trips in fact.”

He Yan’s face stiffened. He raised his glass and paused.

However, Bai Yamo, who was far away, was even more shocked when she saw this.

She bit her lower lip, her eyes gradually turning vicious.

When Lin Wanmeng came out of the changing room, she didn’t notice that Ye Lingxiao was standing at the side.

A black shadow flashed past her back. Lin Wanmeng subconsciously lifted her skirt and was as vigilant as a little mouse that had come out to hunt for food. She stared back with her round eyes.

However, the weather was clear. There were only trees and flowers outside. There was nothing.

When she turned around, she saw Ye Lingxiao’s gloomy face in front of her. Lin Wanmeng took a few steps back and covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.

However, when she regained her senses, she changed her expression to one of indifference. “What’s the matter?”

He took a step forward, and Lin Wanmeng took a step back until she leaned her back against the wall. Behind her was the sunlight, but in front of her was a man as cold as ice.

“Why are you so close to He Yan?”

He looked at Lin Wanmeng’s clothes. Fortunately, Lin Wanmeng had already changed out of that irksome dress.

Lin Wanmeng took a deep breath and tried her best to face Ye Lingxiao calmly. “Qinyu is starting out. I’ve rejected all the clients.”

He Yan didn’t look like he wanted to discuss business with Lin Wanmeng.

Ye Lingxiao narrowed his eyes. “Do you know what you’re doing? Why are you pretending?”

The fire in Lin Wanmeng’s heart ignited. She gritted her teeth and suddenly sneered.

“If you’ve already decided, just do it. I don’t have the ability, and I don’t want to stop you. Why do you have to fly into a rage on my side and make both sides unhappy?”

After saying that, she paused for a moment and looked straight at Ye Lingxiao with her dark brown eyes. “Anyway, I don’t care when we get a divorce, but you have to give me a date.”

“Since it’s a deal, shouldn’t it have a beginning and an end?”

The word ‘divorce’ was once again displayed in front of the two of them.

Ye Lingxiao’s eyes were red, like a hungry lion that had smelled blood. “How dare you say such a thing?”

“So what if I did?” Lin Wanmeng hated Ye Lingxiao’s hypocritical appearance. She turned her face away. “At least I’m magnanimous enough, right?”

The voice was cold, like a sharp blade taken out from under the Arctic ice.

Ye Lingxiao could hear his voice trembling, but he said firmly, “You just said that you don’t care about the divorce?”

He was an idiot to worry about something that would happen sooner or later.

“Yes.” She lowered her head and deliberately smiled. “It would be best if you could set me free now.”

Ye Lingxiao looked at her steadily and suddenly said, “I think Lin Bo’s company is about to collapse and Qinyu is about to take over. You don’t need the Ye Corporation any more.”

Lin Wanmeng turned around and bit her lip, ignoring him.

However, the man refused to let her go. He pressed closer and his tall body completely covered her. Under his black hair was a pair of cold eyes.

His thin lips curled up slightly as he spat out words that were like poison. “But don’t forget that it’s my right to decide who lives and who dies. If I want to, you and Lin Bo can immediately switch.”

Lin Wanmeng gritted her teeth and looked at Ye Lingxiao in disbelief. However, the other party’s gaze told her that this was not a lie.

“Despicable! Shameless!”

“I’m a hundred times more noble than you.”
