After her ex-husband became a Hong Kong entertainment circle tycoon, he put his arm around her waist

"After how I treated you at your birthday party, why did you still come even though you knew it was me?"

Song Ci continued to press for answers.

Upon hearing Song Ci's question, Nan Shu raised an eyebrow.

"If you called me here today just to ask this kind of question, I don't think I need to stay here any longer."

As Nan Shu spoke, she prepared to get up and leave.

Upon seeing this, Song Ci immediately spoke.

"I underestimated you. Of course, I didn't come to see you today just for these things."

"I heard you and Qi Yuye had a fight, and you even moved out of the Qi family home?"

Nan Shu smiled mockingly.

"Ms. Song is really well-informed. But you already know about what happened yesterday today."

Song Ci did not take Nan Shu's sarcasm to heart and smiled slightly.

"There are too many people in the Qi family, so it's normal for this kind of news to reach my ears."

Nan Shu didn't reply, but just stared at Song Ci.

Song Ci hadn't expected Nan Shu to be so difficult, so she could only continue.

"I'm just trying to show some concern for the younger generation as an elder, you don't need to doubt me."

Upon hearing Song Ci's words, Nan Shu sneered.

"Don't you find Ms. Song's words a bit ridiculous? Just a few days ago you publicly told me to break up with Qi Yuye, and now you're pretending to care about our relationship?"

"I have a feeling this is like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—it's up to no good!"

Song Ci was not angry at Nan Shu's barbed reply; on the contrary, he was somewhat satisfied.

The fact that Nan Shuyue refused to answer this question indicates that there is indeed a problem between her and Qi Yuye.

Song Ci picked up his wine cup, took a small sip, and gestured to Nan Shu.

"This wine is good, you should try it."

Nan Shu shook her head.

"I've learned my lesson the hard way, so I don't drink outside alcohol anymore."

Song Mingkai is Song Ci's man, and Nan Shu can't be sure if Song Ci has drugged his drink, nor does she dare to gamble.

"Since you already know, then I won't beat around the bush."

"I want to ask you about your feelings for Qi Yuye. If you still want to be with him, I might consider letting you two be together."

"If you don't want to be with him, then..."

Before Song Ci could finish speaking, Nan Shu spoke up decisively.

"Since you knew I had moved out of the Qi family, you knew that it was impossible for him and me. It wasn't until we moved back in together that I discovered he was such a selfish and controlling person."

"He even interferes with which friends I make, and he only keeps me around to get revenge for dumping him back then. He treats me like a toy! I hate him!"

Nan Shu's face was filled with undisguised hatred, a hatred that surprised Song Ci greatly.

Do you really hate him?

Nan Shu nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, I hate him! I wish he would be kicked out of his position as head of Shengda Group immediately!"

As she spoke, Nan Shu suddenly looked at Song Ci, her eyes lighting up.

"You almost took over Shengda Group yourself, so I imagine you wouldn't want to see the management of Shengda Group remain in Qi Yuye's hands, would you?"

Seeing Nan Shu's enthusiastic expression, Song Ci did not follow her lead, but instead spoke up.

"Go on."

"If you agree, we can join forces. I'll provide you with the necessary assistance, and you can deal with Qi Yuye. That way, my troubles will be resolved."

"I've had enough of this living in fear and anxiety. I don't know what other ways he'll come up with to torment me."

As she spoke, Nan Shu suddenly began to cover her face and cry.

Song Ci couldn't discern the truth in Nan Shu's words, but seeing how heartbroken she was, he was already half convinced.

She nodded, a hint of barely concealed delight in her voice.

"I will make a move, but now is not the time."

Seeing that Song Ci had given himself away, Nan Shu continued to press him for answers.

"What are you planning to do?"

"That's not your business, but I'll contact you if I need anything."

Song Ci had already gotten the information she wanted, so Nan Shu was no longer of any use to her.

Her expression suddenly turned cold.

"Now that you've said everything you needed to say, you can go back now."

Nan Shu looked puzzled. "Didn't we say we'd join forces to bring down Qi Yuye?"

"You've already broken up with Qi Yuye, what ability do you have to help me? Are you perhaps willing to go back to Qi Yuye's side for my sake?"

Seeing the probing look in Song Ci's eyes, Nan Shu's alarm bells went off. She immediately shook her head and pretended to be terrified as she spoke.

"I never want to go back to him in this lifetime. Since this is a struggle between you two, then I'll leave it to you."

After saying this, Nan Shu immediately picked up her bag, stood up, and walked towards the door.

Watching Nan Shu's retreating figure, a flash of murderous intent crossed Song Ci's eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, Song Ci finally gave up the idea.

Qi Yuye might be watching her now, looking for something she might do wrong. If he finds out, she'll have something on him to use against her.

Now is a crucial time to compete for the Shengda Group, and she cannot afford to give Qi Yuye any leverage over her.

Thinking of this, a name suddenly popped into Song Ci's mind.

Song Mingkai has been in Qi Yuye's hands for over a month, almost two months now. During these two months, she has sent countless people to search for Song Mingkai's whereabouts, but without any news.

It's as if Song Mingkai has vanished into thin air.

When Song Ci forced Qi Yuye and Nan Shu to separate that day, she thought Qi Yuye would use Song Mingkai to threaten her.

But to his surprise, Qi Yuye didn't mention this person at all, as if he had completely forgotten about the matter, which made Song Ci feel vaguely uneasy.

After watching Nan Shu leave, Song Ci immediately said.

"You two, keep looking for Song Mingkai. Send more people out there, find him at all costs!"

The two burly men guarding the door nodded immediately and then left.

Song Ci took out her phone, looked at the recording on it, curled the corners of her lips, and sent it directly to Qi Yuye.

At the hotel entrance.

Qi Yuye sat in an inconspicuous car, his gaze occasionally sweeping over the entrance of the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

He gripped his phone tightly, afraid of missing a single message.

"Buzzing..."

A short vibration sounded, and Qi Yuye immediately looked down to check his phone.

After seeing that the message on his phone was from Song Ci, Qi Yuye subconsciously frowned.

Song Ci rarely contacts him, so why is he sending him a file now? What's going on?

Qi Yuye opened the document sent by Song Ci with vigilance and suspicion.

As soon as the file was opened, Nan Shu's voice came out.

"You absolutely have to help me get rid of this troublesome Qi Yuye!"

Upon hearing Nan Shu's words, Qi Yuye clenched his fists immediately.
