Chapter 24: I Don't Have the Surname Wang

he the one who moved it"The nanny whispered, "Sir said he hasn't moved, Madam. Perhaps you should come back and look for him"At this moment, Qiao Ruoxing was completely awake.She was certain that Gu......

She talked to her for so long, yet all she could think about was how to get her money back

Yao Ke Xin couldn't believe it, "Qiao Ruoxing, are you crazy I said Ai Yan doesn't love you, and now I already have his child. You cling desperately to the position of Mrs. Gu, don't you think you are a little shameless"

Qiao Ruo's star chuckled lightly, "Ms. Yao, you are a big star. When you say these things to me, have you considered what would happen if I posted them online Knowing about it and still forcing the original partner to divorce, your meticulously cultivated image over the years could be ruined overnight, and you might even have to pay sky-high breach of contract fees. Do you think it's worth it"

Yao Ke Xin wasn't intimidated by her words, instead she smiled smugly. " Qiao Ruoxing, I've been in this industry for so many years, I've experienced all sorts of real and fake news. Take the rear-end collision incident last time, it caused a huge stir, but in the end, didn't it just blow over You think I was able to turn every crisis into an opportunity Besides Ai Yan, who else could have done that Sure, I lost a month's worth of exposure, but I got the voice acting role for "Feng Shen."

Jo Ro Xing's smile faded a little.

What voice acting did you say

"**Legend of the Gods**, a broken game—" Yao Ke Xin rolled her eyes at her. "What am I telling you all this for Qiao Ruoxing, be sensible and leave on your own. When my belly gets big, you'll be the one swept out! By then, even if Old Madam Gu is unwilling, can she let the Gu family's bloodline remain outside"

qiaojo Xing felt her hands trembling, and a chill ran down her spine.

No wonder he appeared at Ling Yu that day during the sound test!

No wonder the signed contract with Ling Yu, which was as solid as a rock, would suddenly change!

It turns out he stole the contract from her and used it to impress another woman!

Gu Jingyan, have you ever had any respect for me

Seeing Qiao Ruoxing's ashen face, Yao Ke Xin thought the pregnancy had finally hit her weak spot. She then added another blow, "To be honest with you, Zhong Meilan knew about my pregnancy a long time ago. She promised me that if I gave birth to a boy, she would definitely have Ayan marry me into the family. By then, who in the Gu family would even look your way"

Qiao Ruo's star-filled eyes were bloodshot, her face as pale as paper. She stared fixedly at Yao Ke Xin, coldly uttering a single word—Get out!

Yaokexin achieved her purpose and didn't stay any longer. She sarcastically remarked a few words at her, then took her bag and left.

The Imperial Garden Villa, at half past ten in the evening.

In March of Jiang City, spring rains fall continuously.

The rain started around 2 p.m. this afternoon and has been going on ever since, showing no signs of stopping.

The window of the study was half-open, and the sound of rain drumming outside was incessant.

Gu Jingyan prefers to work or read in a quiet environment, where he is more efficient. However, recently something strange has happened: the too-quiet environment makes it harder for him to focus his attention.

When Qiao Ruo Xing was around, he repeatedly warned her not to come into his study while he was working, but she always disobeyed. She would either run in to bring him fruit or milk for supper.

And every time he finished delivering something, he would either make up an excuse to clean the hygiene or give him a back massage, anyway, just sticking around and not leaving. Sometimes when she was really hard to get rid of, he would just be too lazy to care about her, only warning her not to make a sound.

She promised she'd be fine, but after a while, she started sighing and groaning. When you couldn't stand it anymore and asked her what was wrong, she'd smile and praise your handwriting for being beautiful, saying that you could understand so much messy data...

So proud that you think writing by hand beautifully and understanding documents is such an amazing thing...

Before, I thought she was so noisy, but now that she's gone, I'm actually not used to it.

The sounds coming from outside were useless. He didn't want to hear that.

"Tap, tap—"

A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Gu Jingyan came back to himself and said calmly, "Come in."

The nanny came in with a cup of tea.

"Sir, the hawthorn and jujube tea is ready. I've poured you a bowl."

Gu Jingyan took off his glasses, pressed the corners of his eyes tiredly, and said, "Thank you, keep it."

The nanny put down the tea and left.

Gu Jingyan raised his bowl and took a sip, his brow furrowed.

It doesn't taste the same as before. It's a bit too sour, it makes me feel nauseous.

He didn't drink any more, putting the teacup aside. Just as he was about to pick up a book, his phone on the side rang.

He glanced at the caller ID, it was a stranger's number, so he didn't answer.

After the ringtone stopped, he called back and slowly answered.

"Hello, this is [Bar Name]. Mr. Wang, your wife is drunk at our bar and we need you to come pick her up."

"You made a mistake."

Gu Jingyan finished speaking in a nonchalant manner, then hung up the phone.

But after a short while, the other party called again.

Gu Jingyan frowned and picked up the phone again.

"I got it right, she gave me this number. Mr. Wang, is your wife home How do you know it's not"

Gu Jingyan impatiently said, "I don't have the Wang surname."

After finishing, he hung up again.

The other party didn't call again this time, but a few minutes later, a photo arrived via text message.

The location where the photo was taken was relatively dim, but it was still clear to see. The woman lying on the bar counter, drunk out of her mind, was Qiao Ruoxing.

Gu Jingyan's eyes darkened, and he immediately called back, "Where is the shop"

"Where's my wine"

Jo Ro stared with narrowed eyes, shaking an empty cup, and said in a gruff voice, "Who finished my drink"

The bartender handed her a glass of water and coaxed, "Here comes the wine."

Jojo Xing "hehe" laughed twice, held up her cup and took a big gulp, then the next second she spat it all out.

She frowned, her face unhappy. "You're trying to cheat me with water Are you afraid I won't pay for the drinks Let me tell you, my husband is very wealthy! He could buy up all the bars in Jiang City and afford this little amount of money for drinks. Just pour me a glass!"

The bartender had never seen such a drunkard before. You could say she was drunk, but she could still tell the difference between water and liquor. You could say she wasn't drunk, but she rambled on endlessly and couldn't even say where she lived. And her bragging She just blurted it out.

One moment she claims her husband is a big shot, with enough cars at home to fill an underground parking lot, driving Cadillac or Rolls-Royce everywhere. She says they fly private jets when going to Europe. The next moment she's crying and saying she wants a divorce because she won't be able to enjoy these things anymore, asking how she can get more money in the settlement.

The bartender was very envious, after all, he hadn't had that dream of marrying a rich woman in years.

A cacophony of noise erupted from the doorway as a lead-gray sports car skidded to a halt on the curb outside the bar, sending a spray of water into the air.

Someone nearby screamed, "Holy crap, a Bugatti!"

The bartender was taken aback. The next second, he saw the car door open, and a man with an umbrella stepped out, walking straight towards the entrance.f it before bed"Tang Xiaoxiao turned her head, "Why take photos Post them to your circle of friends Are you trying to anger those wealthy wives""No," Qiao Xing sat down, "I think I'll put it up for sa...
