After three years of misplaced affection, Mrs. Yu is no longer willing to pretend to be obedient.

This private restaurant is decorated in the style of a Chinese garden. The waiter led the group along a path for a while before guiding them to the private room.

Jian Ailing was still walking at the back of the group, after all, her current identity was still Yu Yunting's assistant.

The table in the room was large. Luo Xinyue walked in first and naturally sat down next to Yu Yunting. Jian Ailing was the last to enter and sat down next to Xu Cheng.

Compared to the distance between herself and Xu Cheng, Luo Xinyue and Yu Yunting were quite close together.

Luo Xinyue took the initiative to approach the man next to her, whispered to him, and covered her mouth with a smile as she spoke.

I don't know if they were talking about work, but this work has clearly come to an end, so why do they still have so much to say?

It's perfectly understandable for a girl to want to get closer to someone she likes. But Luo Xinyue knew the other person was married; wasn't she being a bit inappropriate?

And Yu Yunting, wasn't he usually so quiet around me? How come he suddenly has so much to say?

Jane felt a little uncomfortable watching their actions.

Although she knew in her heart that this couldn't be the first time this had happened, after all, she had received similar text messages before. She had secretly hoped that Yu Yunting would fall in love with someone else and then directly ask for a divorce, so she wouldn't have to pay that exorbitant divorce settlement.

Knowing something is one thing, but seeing it happening right in front of her is quite another.

Jane Ailing seemed to suddenly understand why Yu Yunting was so angry when he saw her dancing with Zhou Ze'an.

Although they don't really like each other, they still seem unable to help but care when they see the other behaving intimately with someone of the opposite sex.

It was really quite inexplicable; even she herself couldn't explain why.

"Ahem." She coughed lightly a few times, interrupting their conversation.

"I've had them order now. Does Miss Luo have any dietary restrictions? I'll tell them directly."

"No, I don't need to. I'll just eat whatever Mr. Yu likes. I'm fine with anything."

Jane Ailing originally wanted to go out for some fresh air and not stay inside facing those two people, but there was a service bell next to the door, so she didn't need to go out at all.

She pressed the service bell and had no choice but to turn around and sit back down.

Soon, the waiter came in. Yu Yunting ordered a few dishes and then put down the menu.

"What else would you like to eat?"

"That's all." Luo Xinyue shook her head. "Everything you ordered was one of my favorites."

She couldn't be bothered with being polite to Yu Yunting. Jian Ailing spun the wheel, grabbed the menu, and carefully looked at each page.

"I want this, popping boba tofu pudding." She flipped to the dessert category.

"Okay, this is calculated per digit. How many digits do you want?"

"I'm not eating," Xu Cheng waved his hand. Jian Ailing had chatted with him before and knew that he was preparing for his wedding and was trying hard to lose weight.

"I don't need it anymore." Luo Xinyue smiled gently. "Eating sweets this late will make you fat."

If you don't want to eat, then don't eat; why are you writing reviews here?

Jane turned her head to the side.

"Okay, miss, would you like this served before or after the meal?"

"It'll be fine after the meal."

"You really do like desserts, huh?" Xu Cheng couldn't help but tease after the waiter left.

"So what? Work is tiring and hard, I just want to treat myself."

"Is it tiring?" Yu Yunting glanced at her. "I feel like you've been playing all day."

"I..." She was about to argue when she realized she didn't have much to say.

Okay, all three of them seem to be working harder than her.

Yu Yunting didn't have dinner with his business partners tonight and didn't order any alcohol, but unexpectedly, after all the dishes were served, Luo Xinyue took the initiative to order a bottle.

"Isn't tonight a celebration banquet? Since we're having so much fun, we should definitely have a few drinks, right?" Luo Xinyue looked at Yu Yunting, then turned her gaze to Xu Cheng and Jian Ailing.

"Mr. Yu just secured such a large investment, a bottle of wine isn't much of a deal, is it?"

Order whatever you like.

Luo Xinyue looked delicate and frail, but her alcohol tolerance was surprisingly high. She toasted Yu Yunting one glass after another, and also got Xu Cheng and Jian Ailing to drink with her.

Jane Ailing didn't really like drinking, but she didn't want to refuse everyone's hospitality, so she could only drink with them.

"Mr. Yu, I'm usually based in Jiangcheng. If you need a German translator in the future, please feel free to contact me." Luo Xinyue clinked glasses with the man beside her. "You're in Longcheng, right? The two cities aren't too far apart, I can go to Longcheng too..."

"We can work together again if there's an opportunity. I'll have Xu Cheng contact you then."

"Oh..." A fleeting look of disappointment crossed her eyes.

Looking at the table full of delicious food, Jian Ailing felt a little better. She sat down and buried herself in her food, deliberately ignoring the two people.

After dinner, Xu Cheng said that this private restaurant is famous for its garden scenery, and suggested that everyone take a stroll inside to digest their food.

"Let's take a walk then," Jane said, rubbing her stomach.

The consequence of her engrossed eating was that she did indeed overeat.

The group walked along the winding corridor. The walkways in the garden weren't wide, only allowing two people to walk at a time. Yu Yunting walked in front, with Xu Cheng and Jian Ailing, one as his secretary and the other as his assistant, following naturally behind. Luo Xinyue walked faster and faster, eventually passing the two of them and reaching Yu Yunting's side.

Her work was over, and strictly speaking, she was now more like a guest.

"Ailing, are you angry?" Xu Cheng, who was good at reading people, noticed that something was wrong with the person next to him.

"No," she denied instinctively.

"Actually, you don't need to worry. This isn't the first time people like this have appeared." Xu Cheng was unsurprised. "The boss will keep his distance from these kinds of people."

It's strange, really. When it comes to scheming, it should be Mrs. Yu, who's right next to him, who's the most cunning one. After all, she's the only one who successfully outmaneuvered the boss and married him as she wished.

When Xu Cheng became Yu Yunting's secretary, he was already engaged and about to get married. He didn't know the specifics of what happened between the two of them back then. He only knew that his boss had been schemed against by his bride, and that his previous secretary had made some mistakes at this crucial moment, which caused his boss to lose his temper and be dismissed.

He knew that Mrs. Yu was rumored to be a scheming woman, and he didn't have a good impression of her, but after this encounter, Xu Cheng felt that she was somewhat different from the rumors.

After spending a few days with Jian Ailing, he felt that she was somewhat naive and not even as shrewd as Luo Xinyue.

If Jane Ailing is faking it, then she is truly terrifying.

But Xu Cheng, who had seen countless people, always felt that this didn't seem like an act.

It's unclear whether the rumors are wrong or if there's some hidden story behind them.
