Chapter 1198 A little thought

On the other side, Wu Qing called out to Jian Ai, who was about to brush her teeth.

"Come here, I have something to tell you!"

"I need to brush my teeth and wash my face first!" Jian Ai thought helplessly. What was bound to happen would happen eventually, and nine times out of ten it would be about her divorce.

"Sit down! I have something to say to you!" Wu Qing gestured for Jian Ai to sit down, then said:

"The saddest thing in life is meeting someone who is very important to you, but ultimately finding that you are not meant to be and have to let go!"

"Haven't you read a quote from Shakespeare?"

“I’ve seen it!” Jane said somewhat impatiently.
"But what I don't know is, what do you mean by saying that now!"

Wu Qing glanced at Jane Eyre, then said:

"As your mother, our relationship has always been one of mutual respect and avoiding getting involved in each other's disputes!"

"But I won't allow anyone to bully my daughter!"

“Teacher Wu, please just say what you have to say!” Jane asked.

"You're all alone now. What are your plans for the future?" Wu Qing said forcefully, "Look up at me!"

"I'll sell the house first!" Jane said after thinking for a moment.

"We bought this house together, and then he paid half and I paid half, so we didn't owe each other anything!"

"That makes perfect sense!" Wu Qing agreed upon hearing this.
"Even if we break up, we should be magnanimous and not make things awkward. Will you still stay in Beijing?"

Wu Qing asked somewhat nervously. There was nothing she could do; after her divorce, she had sold her house in her hometown of Dali and wanted to find out if her daughter would go back.

"I don't want to stay anymore!" Jane said, completely oblivious to what was happening.

"I want to go back to Dali, tidy up that house, sort out my feelings, and then get ready to set off!"

"After that~!" Jane thought for a moment and said, "I haven't decided where to go yet, but Beijing or Shanghai are both fine!"

"Of course, if you need me to come to Shanghai to be with you, then I'll come to you!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Qing quickly refused, saying, "Then I won't use it for now, but I can keep the cat!"

Then Wu Qing made a decision: he couldn't let Jian Ai return to Dali; he had to find a way to keep him in the capital. So he said:

"Go eat in a bit! I know what you're thinking. I'm going to talk to my friend about the role later. Take care of yourself!"

"Okay!" Jane breathed a sigh of relief. Her mother had put too much pressure on her. She then turned around and prepared to drink her milk.

When Wu Qing saw that Jian Ai was eating without washing up, he frowned and scolded her, "How can the girls in our family eat without washing up?"

"Xiao Hao spoils you, but I won't!"

"Oh, by the way, could you tell Xiaohao that I've come to Beijing?"

"Wasn't it him who told you about our divorce? Didn't he know you were coming?" Jane asked, somewhat puzzled.

She thought Lin Hao was talking to her mother about divorce, but judging from her mother's words, it seemed that wasn't the case.

"You should ask about things you don't understand. Don't you feel embarrassed if you keep guessing and still get it wrong?" Wu Qing rolled her eyes at Jian Ai, but still said with concern:
"I don't care why you got divorced, or who was right or wrong, but now that you're divorced, you should sort yourself out and not make a mess of your life and career!"

"If you still can't let go of her, then go talk to her, do you hear me!"

However, Wu Qin's words were destined to go in one ear and out the other.

Having finally gotten a divorce, how could she possibly be so eager to remarry Lin Hao, even though she also felt it was a bit of a pity.

·······
Meanwhile, Lin Hao was packing his things, with his secretary helping him put all the awards and honors he had received over the years into boxes.

Thinking that Lin Hao would soon be leaving Deep Blue, the little secretary started to cry, feeling wronged.

"No, what's wrong with you now?" Although Lin Hao knew what his secretary was thinking, he hadn't brought it up yet, so he took the initiative to ask.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Lin!" Jiang Nan said, sobbing.

"What have you done to wrong me?" Lin Hao asked, somewhat amused.

"I just can't control myself, or I should leave first!" Jiang Nan said, getting up to go out.

"No, no, no, come back, come back right now!" Lin Hao quickly pulled Jiang Nan back, then said with a smile, "Sit back down right now!"

He then pressed Jiang Nan back into her seat and said earnestly:
"Sit down. Just sit here and cry your heart out. You can leave after you're done crying. Otherwise, how am I supposed to explain things to them when you're crying like this?"

"I'm just feeling wronged on your behalf!" Jiang Nan said indignantly.

"The company has come a long way, and now you're letting us leave? That would be like discarding a used tool after it has served its purpose!"

"Who are you calling a donkey!" Lin Hao found it somewhat amusing, but on the surface he said with a straight face, "You're the donkey!"

Jiang Nan still said with some indignation, "They are your own sister and brother-in-law, why would they treat you like this!"

"How did she treat me!" Lin Hao said, shaking his head with a wry smile.

"This has nothing to do with whether we're relatives or not. They didn't make me leave; I wanted to leave on my own!"

"No, then why did you leave?" Jiang Nan asked Lin Hao, her eyes red.

"Didn't you say that we should build a local industry chain?"

"We've finally made some progress, why are you leaving?!"

Lin Hao shook his head and said:

I had to leave because things were looking promising. Strictly speaking, I was just someone who started the fire, but once the fire was lit, how it would burn was beyond my control!
"So, with my skill level, what can I do for you?" Jiang Nan looked at Lin Hao expectantly.

Others might think Jiang Nan was overestimating herself when she said that, but Lin Hao knew that she really did have that ability.

"What's your rank? Do you even have a rank?" Lin Hao joked, then said earnestly, "You still don't understand?"

Even if I stay in Deep Blue, or even if I completely control Deep Blue, some things will still be difficult to change!
"Why?" Jiang Nan asked, puzzled.

"Sigh!" Lin Hao sighed and said.
"Firstly, I can't completely control DeepBlue, and secondly, DeepBlue's scale is simply too small. To integrate the local industry chain, we need a larger platform!"

Just as Jiang Nan was about to ask something, Lin Hao's phone suddenly rang. Lin Hao saw it was Jian Ai calling. While answering the phone, Lin Hao said to Jiang Nan, "What are you looking at? Go pack it up!"

"Hello!" Lin Hao answered the phone and asked, "What do you want?"

"Did you tell Teacher Wu about our divorce?" Jian Ai asked directly.

"How could I possibly tell Teacher Wu about the divorce!" Lin Hao glared at the secretary who was eavesdropping.

Having known Lin Hao for so many years, Jian Ai knew from his tone that it wasn't him who said it, so she naturally didn't blame him anymore.

"She just asked me to tell you that she's come to Beijing!" After thinking for a moment, Jane said anyway.
"However, I want to say that if her arrival has caused you any harm or trouble, I apologize!"

"It's alright!" Jian Ai hung up the phone before Lin Hao could speak.

Next, I'll definitely be meeting my former mother-in-law, Wu Qing. How could I miss out on such a great opportunity?

So Lin Hao sent a voice message to the group chat of the three of them, preparing to interrogate them one by one.

At this moment, Jia Kuan saw Lin Hao's voice chat and hurriedly went to the smoking room to answer it, while Zhou Yiming was being affectionate with his girlfriend Huizi.

“This is a gift for me!” Zhou Yiming said, flipping through the laptop.

"Yes, this laptop is super thin and light, it's designed for business people like you!"

The phone rang, and seeing it was a small group chat with three people, I answered it immediately. But as soon as I answered, Lin Hao bombarded me with questions:

"Teacher Wuqing has arrived in Beijing. Who tipped him off?!"

"I didn't!" Zhou Yiming quickly denied any involvement upon hearing this.
"I only spoke to your sister twice, and I swear I never told your mom, and I don't even have her phone number!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Kuan quickly denied it, saying, "It wasn't me. How could I possibly contact your mother-in-law?"

"I've seen what kind of person she is before, I'm trying to avoid her like the plague!"

"Think it over before you speak!" Lin Hao then threatened.

"I need to find out for sure that day at the hospital was the last time I would ever say goodbye!"

"We're all brothers, is it really necessary to take this so seriously?" Jia Kuan said nonchalantly.
"Don't you know who I am? Besides, your divorce is such a big deal, the elders will find out sooner or later. Can you two keep it a secret forever?"

"If you ask me, whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed anyway. It's only a matter of time, so you might as well just get it over with!"

As Jia Kuan was speaking, he saw Liu Yingxia hurrying out and, thinking something had happened, quickly followed her:
"Hey, I have something to do, I'm hanging up now!"

Lin Hao knew that Jia Kuan must have gone to follow his wife. Once he saw Liu Yingxia meet with Wu Qing, he would be able to guess who had tipped him off.

So Lin Hao said to Zhou Yiming, who was still on the phone, "Yiming, do you think it might really be Jia Kuan who sent the message?"

"I don't think so. You know Jia Kuan. Unless Teacher Wuqing asks him, he definitely won't tell you on his own!"

"I think so too!" Lin Hao then said meaningfully.
"Jia Kuan is actually quite tight-lipped, but his wife Liu Yingxia might not be so!"

"Hey, you know what, it's actually quite possible!" Zhou Yiming thought of how Liu Yingxia and Jian Ai had stayed at each other's place for a few days, and the two were best friends, and he immediately became suspicious as well.

Meanwhile, Liu Yingxia met Wu Qing, but Wu Qing's aura was too strong, making Liu Yingxia feel a little uneasy, after all, it was she who betrayed Jian Ai and Lin Hao.

After some conversation, Wu Qing asked Liu Yingxia to leave Jian Ai in the capital so that Jian Ai wouldn't return to Dali and find out that she had sold the house.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with saying it out loud, it's just that she feels a bit embarrassed in front of her daughter, so she thought about getting Lin Hao and Jian Ai back together, which is one of the reasons why she came to the capital.

However, just as she said, although he felt it was a pity that Jane and Lin Hao divorced, he did not intend to interfere with their marriage.

If they really can't get together, she won't force it. At worst, she can just wait until she's filmed a couple of dramas and then buy back the house she used to own.

"Ah, leave Jane here!" Liu Yingxia was a little confused when she heard this.

"Yingxia, could you do me one more favor?" Wu Qing said with some regret.

"Look how loving she and Lin Hao were before, it's such a pity they're getting divorced now!"

"Teacher Wu, to be honest..." Liu Yingxia hesitated for a moment before saying:
"I really want to help her, but all I can do is let you know. But as you know, there's nothing I can do about Jane!"

"Jane Ai is a child who responds better to gentle persuasion than force!" Wu Qing remarked with a sigh.

"You can't go against her; she only listens to sweet talk, so I don't make any special demands on her!"

"Anyone can say nice things!" Liu Yingxia said weakly.
"Lin Hao is so considerate of her, he can say a whole bunch of sweet words, but it's all for naught, isn't it?"

Wu Qing shook her head and said, "Husband and wife, friends, and girlfriends are all different!"

“I can say nice things too, but what should I say?” Liu Yingxia said helplessly.

"Someone as smart as you, do you need to ask me?" Wu Qing said solemnly.

"You know my relationship with Jane. As her mother, I'm not well-liked. Sometimes, it's you girls who have more influence when you speak up!"

"She's just like you, a good friend who's always been kind to her. I'm entrusting this old lady with my best wishes!"

"Fine, fine!" Liu Yingxia said helplessly, "I, well, I, I'll think of a way!"

Wu Qing encouraged, "You can stall her for a while, and deal with things later. Maybe you can even help Jian Ai and Lin Hao!"

"Teacher Wu, don't people always say that a mother and daughter are of one heart?" Liu Yingxia asked curiously, "Didn't you ever say anything kind to her?"

“Jane and I are both quite proud, and we would never back down!” Wu Qing glanced at the time and continued:

"I've taken up too much of your time, so I'll be going now!"

"Alright, take care!" Liu Yingxia said as she saw Wu Qing off.

Jia Kuan, who had been monitoring from a distance, was no fool. He immediately realized that Liu Yingxia had betrayed him, and he instantly felt a bit flustered. How was he going to explain this to his good brother?

Although he didn't inform on her, Liu Yingxia was his wife, and they were one!
Meanwhile, after seeing Wu Qing off, Liu Yingxia returned to her office and was also thinking about how to keep Jian Ai with her.

Looking at the list of employees to be optimized, an idea suddenly came to mind.

It's worth noting that before getting married, Jane worked for a Fortune 500 company, where she was involved in personnel optimization.

What she's doing right now is personnel optimization, so why not invite Jane Ai to help with this? It would be a win-win situation.

So he immediately called Jane Eyre and asked her to meet him to talk about the matter.
