After paying her husband for five years, she turned around and married into a wealthy family with bi

Xie Xianyu lowered his eyelids and looked down at Li Chun. Li Chun was not tall, and she was wearing 8-centimeter high heels, so she was about the same height as Yun An who was barefoot.

Xie Xianyu is 185 cm tall, so even though Li Chun was wearing high heels, he only looked down at her.

"Li Chun, did you drive Yun An away?"

Hearing his voice, which was different from the cold and gloomy one he usually wore at work, Li Chun couldn't help but feel a chill.

He could only say somewhat guiltily, "No, Mr. Xie, she insisted on leaving, saying she was resigning to take responsibility. It has nothing to do with me. Mr. Xie, did she complain to you?"

Xie Xianyu said, "Yun'an is a talent I recruited with great difficulty. She is very important to me. She left our Blue Rain company, and SPG offered her a job right after. She is not like you, a good-for-nothing who relies on your father's connections."

"You...what did you say?" Li Chun couldn't believe what she had just heard. She glared at Xie Xianyu: "You called me a piece of trash?"

Xie Xianyu nodded: "Li Chun, without your father, you are nothing. Even a piece of trash can be put to good use, but what about you? You are lazy and good-for-nothing every day. You come later than me and leave earlier than me. You fiddle with your new bag eight hundred times a day. You can't even take meeting minutes properly. Yun An's code can automatically take meeting minutes. It's not that she can't study because she doesn't have a higher education."

She was one of my mentor's proudest students. She just happened to come from a poor family, like me; she only had an elderly relative at home, so she had to give up her studies. You're so narrow-minded, firing my most promising technical talent! With a parasite like you, how can the company possibly function well?

Li Chun never expected Xie Xianyu to scold her like that. Tears streamed down her face, ruining her makeup. "No one has ever dared to scold me like this before. Xie Xianyu, you're so vicious! Now that the company isn't doing well, you want to blame it all on me? Doesn't she do anything wrong? Our project was snatched away by her former company for no reason, and so much money disappeared. Why are you blaming me? If you can't run a business well, then don't run it at all. Waaah!"

As she spoke, her spoiled princess temper flared up, and she picked up the documents on the table and tore them to shreds.

Xie Xianyu couldn't take it anymore and slapped her away.

Li Chun never expected Xie Xianyu to do this. He used to treat her very well, but everything changed after Yun An appeared. Just because Yun An quit, Xie Xianyu actually hit her.

After being slapped, she ran away crying, wanting to go back and tell her father.

Xie Xianyu only realized then that he had gotten a little too carried away.

He painstakingly built this company, but he never imagined that his bottomless concessions to the major shareholder would lead to such complicated consequences.

He turned on his computer and drafted a document stating that he wanted to resign to take responsibility.

Yun An was looking up detailed information about SPG. She was able to access overseas websites via a VPN and find information that wasn't uploaded domestically.

Just then, she suddenly received a call from Gu Beiting.

Gu Beiting was using his home phone, even though she recognized him at a glance.

She didn't want to accept the call. Gu Beiting had hurt her, and every time she thought of him, Yun An felt a dull ache in her heart.

But she still wanted to ask when he could go together to complete the divorce procedures.

Yun'an then connected.

Gu Beiting's pleasant voice came from the other end, a clear and magnetic voice like that of a gentleman.

"Yun An, it's me, Gu Beiting."

Gu Beiting sat on the sofa at home. He had just learned that Yun An had been forced to resign from Lan Yu.

However, since Yun An's entry into SPG was still a secret, Gu Beiting was unaware that he deliberately squeezed out Lan Yu's project in order to force Yun An to leave Lan Yu.

Gu Beiting had been in great pain ever since Yun An went there, and now he had finally pulled out the thorn that had been stuck there for quite some time.

He believed that Yun'an was now at her wit's end, so he immediately called her.

Yun An's voice was calm: "Have you had time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

Gu Beiting was completely bewildered: "What are we going to the Civil Affairs Bureau for?"

"divorce!"

Gu Beiting immediately became furious: "Yun An, when did I ever say I wanted a divorce?"

Yun An found it strange: "Gu Beiting, don't go too far. You've already wasted several years of my life."

Gu Beiting felt awkward for a moment, then quickly said, "What you're talking about is really a misunderstanding, I can do it..."

Yun An was taken aback: "What are you doing?"

Gu Beiting said, "Didn't you say that you wanted a divorce because I'm impotent? But I'm perfectly functional."

Yun An: "..."

After a minute of silence, Gu Beiting brought up something: "Yun'an, didn't you want a child? I think it's fine. How about I bring you over, and we'll have one tonight?"

Before seeing his affections for Xu Niaoniao, Yun An would have been overjoyed, even full of anticipation. She genuinely wanted to have a child with Gu Beiting.

After getting married, she hinted to Gu Beiting that she wanted to have a child, not only because her in-laws were urging her, but also because her maternal grandmother had mentioned it.

She entered into marriage with great joy, only to be ignored by Gu Beiting. She even had to make excuses for him, saying that she was too busy with work and had too many things to do.

But it wasn't until she saw the truth with her own eyes that she realized she was a fool. The reason they didn't have children wasn't because Gu Beiting was busy, but because he simply didn't want to have a relationship with her.

But now she finds it all ridiculous.

Why should Gu Beiting give Xu Niaoniao everything—love, money, career—yet demand that she bear this child?

Yun An immediately refused: "I don't think that way anymore, Gu Beiting. I still want to divorce you."

Gu Beiting was dumbfounded. He had thought that if he said that, Yun An would be so happy that she would thank God that he was finally giving her a chance to get pregnant.

Given her background and family circumstances, it was truly her good fortune that she was able to give birth to a child for him and his family.

But Yun An rejected him.

Gu Beiting was furious: "Yun An, didn't you beg me to give you a child before? You said you really wanted to be a mother, so why are you saying you don't want one now? Just because of your grandmother's matter, you've harbored resentment to this extent. Don't you think too highly of yourself? There are plenty of women who want to have my child. You keep threatening divorce, just to make me admit my mistakes, right? But I'll say it again: I haven't done anything wrong. You want a divorce? Forget it!"

Yun An was taken aback by his illogical statements. She was angered by Gu Beiting's words: "Gu Beiting, we haven't been husband and wife for three years. I can sue you directly. I just don't want things to get too ugly. You've wasted so many years of my youth. If you don't love me, why won't you let me go?"

Gu Beiting didn't expect her to react like she exploded. That wasn't his intention; he came to reconcile with her.

Gu Beiting originally thought that as long as he gave her a way out, she would obediently return to his side. He had already planned to let her continue working on the Jing Sheng project and start a married life with her. However, Yun An's sudden and fierce resistance was beyond his expectations.

He felt as if he had been punched in the gut, both disappointed and in pain.

Gu Beiting couldn't help but say, "You can try. I'm really fine with this. I'm also willing to have marital relations with you. Our marital relationship hasn't broken down. You can consult a lawyer. In this situation, the court won't accept the case unless I agree."

Yun An didn't know what he was trying to do: "So, what exactly do you mean?"

Gu Beiting replied, "Yun An, you say I wasted your youth, but didn't you successfully take over? You've known me for two years and you've become Mrs. Gu. How did I waste your time? Haven't I given you living expenses for the past three years? I haven't treated you badly, have I? Have I ever hit you? I don't have any bad habits that you can't tolerate. Think about it carefully, if you leave me, can you find someone better than me?"

"You've made such a fuss over some small disagreements. Can't you stop now? I've apologized to you, and I even offered incense to your grandmother. You wanted patent fees? I gave you 2000 million. I called to try and reconcile. The project you wanted, Bei Ting has already taken it; you can do it. Continue with the original plan you and President Sheng made. You had a conflict with Lin Xiaowei? I can fire her. You want a marital relationship? I can give that to you. We can have children, and I guarantee our children will be my heirs."

Yun An listened and gave a cold laugh.

Yun An roughly guessed that Bei Ting had already given the game to Xu Niaoniao, but Gu Bei Ting still wanted Yun An to make money for Xu Niaoniao. Gu Bei Ting was racking his brains to please Xu Niaoniao, but he still wanted to get Yun An. How come she never noticed before that he was so greedy?
