Chapter 18: Being too Self-Assured About One's Charm

ens of injured people were sent to the hospital. Relatives of the victims arrived at the hospital one after another. However, only her family members failed to make contact.The horrific scene of the a...A cold voice, in an instant, shattered that fleeting feeling of excitement.

Of course, men like that don't deserve to have a mouth.

Joe Rose reluctantly walked over and whispered, "That's Bai Songlu, you promised me before."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingyan's gaze shifted from the document to her face.

Pure and elegant, with lowered eyes and a meek demeanor, she seemed much the same as before. But Gu Jingyan knew it was all an act.

Under this skin, there is no longer the docile rabbit of before, but a wildcat that will bare its claws at the slightest provocation.

He leaned back, his phoenix eyes narrowed lazily. He raised an eyebrow and drawled, "Oh What did I agree to"

Qiao Ruo xing was stunned, as if she couldn't believe that Gu Jing Yan would deny it. She gritted her teeth and said, "You told me before to accompany you to pick up your sister and celebrate her return. You just transferred this for me!"

"It seems like that's the case." Gu Jingyan seemed to have remembered something. Qiao Ruoxing was about to let out a sigh of relief, but she heard him say, "But after thinking it over carefully, we are going to divorce anyway, so there's no reason to accept such expensive gifts from the Qiao family anymore. Let's just forget about it."

Joe Star:……

"It's not that expensive anyway," Qiao Xing tried to persuade him, "Besides, we broke up peacefully. The two families can still be friends in the future, right It's nothing for friends to give each other gifts."

Gu Jingyan let out a sneer, "We're a peaceful breakup It wasn't because the man couldn't fulfill conjugal duties that you wanted a divorce because you were unsatisfied"

Jo Jo Star:……

This meme isn't going away, is it That sensitive ego of his, isn't he just angry that he's being told he's no good He's so petty about it!

Just as she was about to try to defend herself, Gu Jingyan said again, "This morning, a male reproductive hospital called me and said they wanted to give me a consultation over the phone and asked me what kind of functional impairment I had On this point, as someone with experience, why didn't you describe it in detail to the doctor"

Joe Star: "..."

She had long forgotten that she had made an appointment for Gu Jingyan at a urology clinic out of spite. Why did it have to be today How could she explain this

Qiao Ruoxing chuckled twice, "Mr. Gu, can we talk about something else first"

Gu Jingyan got up and walked around the desk, leaning against it, lifting his eyelids, and looking at her with a half-smile, "Reduced libido"

Joerox Star:：“……”

"Erectile dysfunction"

Joeroxing: "..."

Gu Jingyan twitched the corner of his lips, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. "Is it that our intimate moments aren't lasting long enough What exactly is it that makes my wife so dissatisfied, that she had to label me as an 'expert'"

"Joe, since we're getting divorced anyway, there's no need to dwell on this, right"

"It's very necessary," Gu Jingyan scanned her with his eyes, "How can I agree to your divorce reasons if I don't figure this out"

She felt that Gu Jingyan was deliberately teasing her, he clearly harbored resentment towards the previous divorce agreement!

Qiaoqiao took a deep breath and conceded, "If Mr. Gu doesn't agree with that reason, we can change it. We could say incompatibility, lack of marital feelings, or even marital breakdown. You pick one."

Gu Jingyan raised his eyes, "Since you two have broken up, why are you still giving me lunch Qiao Ruoxing, this reason is even less convincing!"

Qiao Ruoxing

"Mr. Gu, that lunch is..."

"Oh, and there are some photos too." Gu Jingyan opened his phone and waved it in front of her. The screen clearly displayed the photo she had just taken downstairs with the front desk attendant at the entrance of Jiangsheng Group.

Knowing that she needed to spice things up a bit, she took off her jacket and put on a fitted white one-shoulder bodycon dress. She then snapped a close-up photo and sent it to Gu Jingyan, asking him if this picture was suitable for posting on social media.

This is actually a threat to Gu Jingyan: if he doesn't let her in, she'll post the photo on social media. At that time, Jiang Sheng Group's image will be damaged, and it will be his face that suffers.

I never expected that the tricks I used would be turned around by Gu Jingyan and become him sending me private photos!

"Mr. Gu, that's not a private photo..."

Gu Jingyan automatically filtered her words and looked at the photo, commenting, "It's not really that good. It's been edited a bit too much. I remember you only had an A"

Joe suddenly darkened her face. She's C! Who does this person think they are looking down on!

She gritted her teeth and said, "President Gu, can we talk about something serious Like, when are we going to get a divorce"

Gu Jingyan glanced at her, "Qiao Ruo Xing, I gave you a chance, it was you who didn't come."

"I had something to do that day…"

"What's up"

Qiao Ruo Xing pursed her lips, she didn't want to tell Gu Jing Yan that it was because her mother was critically ill.

When he couldn't be her pillar of support, she didn't want to show him her vulnerability. Maybe even if she said it, in his eyes it would just be an excuse for her to ask for a divorce.

She was silent for a few seconds, then spoke again, "We can reschedule, you pick the time, I'm free."

Gu Jingyan stared at her for a few seconds, then said in a faint voice, "I need to remind you that after the divorce, everything you have as Mrs. Gu will no longer exist. The new jewelry and clothing from every season of the brand, limited edition Hermès bags, and the holiday gift boxes for the Jockey Club annual membership you like best. Even so, are you still going to get a divorce"

Every time Gu Jingyan mentioned something, Qiao Ruoxing's heart ached. She truly couldn't bear it. But thinking about it, for these things, to spend decades in a tomb with Gu Jingyan and grow to loathe each other was simply too dreadful.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Leave." It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. We can earn all this back later.

Gu Jingyan's eyes darkened.

"When are we going to get things done" she said, even sounding a little impatient.

Gu Jingyan glanced at her, "When I have time."

When are you free

Gu Jingyan sat back in his office chair, too lazy to even look at her. He said coldly, "When I have time, I will let you know."

Qiao Ruo Xing: …

What kind of answer is this

If he never has time, will the divorce just keep dragging on

"About when"

Gu Jingyan raised his eyes, his expression already impatient. "What's the rush Afraid I won't leave with you Qiao Ruo Xing, you're overestimating your charm."

Jojo Star: ….

She didn't say anything either, did she What a jerk, getting mad about nothing.

Gu Jingyan finished his sentence and completely ignored her. He opened his lunchbox and began to eat by himself.

A stir-fried pork intestine, a simple sauteed Chinese broccoli, and on top of it all was a heart-shaped sugar yolk omelet (the kitchen only had this one egg mold).

Gu Jingyan's movement paused, and his face looked a little better.

Jojo also noticed this. Could it really be as Lin Shu said, that he would talk better after having breakfast

"Mr. Gu How does it taste"

Gu Jingyan clamped a piece of fatty intestine between his chopsticks, glanced at her sideways, and said, "Too sweet, is sugar free"Is she dumb Nothing even happened!Gu Jingyan let out a light snort. "If it wasn't just for sleeping, do you think the price would be this"Jiaojoxing..."I was drunk last night, do the words I said whil...
