Five years after their breakup, a prominent lawyer is desperately seeking reconciliation.

Beauty, the most upscale beauty salon in Haicheng.

A Cullinan was parked across the entrance, and the doorman ran over and opened the door.

Yu Qing, dressed in a casual Diaopai outfit and carrying a Hermès Himalaya Birkin bag, stepped out of the car with an air of nonchalance.

"aunt."

Fang Tian ran up and affectionately took the bag from her hand, then helped her into the room.

Yu Qing has a private room here, which is as luxurious as a suite in a five-star hotel.

All the machines and equipment were ready in advance.

The beautician helped her change her clothes, carefully removed her makeup, and did some basic skincare.

A moment later, the dean walked in, carrying a cup of red tea and beaming with smiles.

"Sister Yu, it's been a while since you last visited."

Yu Qing lay on her back on the beauty bed, closed her eyes, and hummed in agreement.

"We've got new machines and new technology imported from the US. I'll do it for you today."

Fang Tian sat on the sofa not far away, occasionally talking about the latest news and urging Yu Qing to speak.

"Sweetie, your neighborhood's water supply is cut off. Are you staying with Ah Shi now?"

"No, Ah Shi said... he's not used to living with people, so he asked me... to stay with my parents for now."

Yu Qing turned her head and opened her eyes.

"I remember your parents' villa is up in the mountains, right? They live abroad most of the time, and they don't hire anyone to clean the house. How are you going to live there?"

Fang Tian said helplessly, "So... I'll be staying at a hotel for now."

Yu Qing frowned, picked up her phone, and dialed a number.

"Clean up the guest rooms on the third floor; someone will be moving in tonight."

"Auntie, please don't be so polite. I can stay in a hotel; it's very convenient," Fang Tian declined.

"Alright." Yu Qing lay back down. "I'll have the driver go to the hotel to move our things in a bit, and we'll move in tonight. I'll also have A-Shi come home tonight so we can have dinner together."

Since their unpleasant parting, A-Shi has not answered her calls for many days.

"Auntie, to be honest, Ah Shi might not have time lately."

"Hmm? What big case has the station been busy with lately? They haven't even had time to go home."

"There aren't any major cases, but..." Fang Tian looked troubled, "Never mind, let Shi tell you about his personal matters himself."

Yu Qing clicked her tongue: "That brat never told me anything to begin with, and you're keeping it from me along with him, aren't you? Actually, even if neither of you said anything, I could guess a little bit."

How could she not know what her own son was like?

He's probably bewitched by that ill-mannered new assistant.

"I saw that girl once from afar, and she looked... well, nothing special."

She glanced at it quickly through the car window; it looked a bit like the one who used to be so dramatic.

Men always think the best is what they can't have.

"Sweetie, listen to your aunt's advice. Sometimes men do a little something outside, as long as it doesn't harm the family, we should just pretend we don't see it. As for that little assistant, just give him some money to get rid of him."

Fang Tian bit her lower lip and managed to squeeze out a "good".

The room fell silent for a moment, with only the sound of machines running.

The private rooms were woken up by a knock, and a moment later, a younger, round-faced beautician came in.

"Dean, the 60 membership cards with a face value of 10,000 yuan that the young lady just bought have been topped up."

"Okay, remember to issue the invoice. Is it for an individual or a company?"

The beautician glanced down at the card in her hand: "Company, Lu's Manufacturing Company."

Yu Qing sat up abruptly, staring intently at her: "Say it again? What company?"

The hospital director, being more experienced, quickly dismissed the beautician, saying, "Sister Yu, perhaps it's a company benefit from purchasing goods from the north. It's nothing; we often have companies coming here for bulk purchases."

Yu Qing ignored her and instead got out of bed.

"Take me to see who came."

Fang Tian quickly followed behind her and rushed out.

Yu Qing's luxury private room was on the third floor, while the second floor had ordinary multi-person rooms. The beautician led her nervously to the door of one of the rooms.

Just as I reached the door, I heard an exaggerated woman's loud laughter.

I don't know if the people inside are stupid or too arrogant, but they were speaking extremely loudly.

You can hear what they are saying clearly without having to eavesdrop.

"Secretary Shen, you really gave everyone in the finance department a beauty card? That's too extravagant. If old woman Yu finds out, she'll be heartbroken. That's enough for her to get anti-wrinkle injections for six months."

Yu Qing's eyes widened suddenly, forcibly suppressing her surging anger.

That sound...

It is Bai Yun, the head of the company's finance department.

Three years ago, she was working as an accountant on a construction site. Seeing that she was smart and capable, he promoted her to the head office and she eventually became the person in charge.

A true "one of our own".

"What's this little bit of money to Secretary Shen? She'll be promoted to vice president at next month's shareholders' meeting."

"Yes, Secretary Shen, please think of us more often when good things happen in the future."

"Yes, yes, my dear sister, let's not forget each other when we become rich and powerful."

A sweet, slightly husky female voice spoke last.

"This amount of money is nothing. As long as your finance department keeps a close eye on my husband's money and prevents any old woman and her son from taking advantage of him, you'll definitely have a good life ahead of you."

Yu Qing's chest heaved violently as she clenched her fists, clearly suppressing her anger.

Fang Tian stood behind her, observing her expression.

She had known about Lu Guokun's affair for a long time, and had even witnessed it a few times.

But given his status and position, even if he didn't take the initiative, there were still quite a few women eager to pursue him.

However, Fang Tian didn't expect these women to be so stupid, thinking that they could become successful overnight by sleeping with men a few times, and deluding themselves into thinking that things didn't belong to them.

The discussion inside is still ongoing.

"I haven't seen that haggard woman at the office lately. Is she seriously ill and unable to get out of bed?"

"That would be best, at least it would save Secretary Shen from having to fight with her. But I heard that her son is in poor health, with kidney problems... I guess it's some kind of hereditary disease? He'll probably die young sooner or later."

"It would be best if a pair of them died, then I wouldn't have anyone blocking my way."

A flame ignited in Fang Tian's eyes, and her whole being became fierce and frenzied due to sudden anger.

These despicable people even cursed Ah Shi to die young.

She quickened her pace, raising her foot to kick the door, but Yu Qing stopped her.

Yu Qing gestured for her to go back first, so Fang Tian had no choice but to follow her back to the private room on the third floor.

"Auntie, they're too arrogant! Why are you stopping me? I'm going to teach them a lesson for you and Ah Shi."

"Even if you beat them up, then what? Let them come to the company crying with their injuries. If someone takes a picture and it makes the news, the stock price will be affected tomorrow."

A young and pretty girl can cry and act cute to make an older man feel guilty and sorry for her, so he'll spend more money on her.

Not worth the candle.

She has much more experience dealing with young girls like this.
