After the divorce, he went on a motorcycle trip, and his ex-wife and daughter were filled with regre

With Xia Yu's arrival, the entire banquet hall fell into a deathly silence.

All eyes were on them!

All eyes were fixed on Xia Yu. Even Shen Qinghan, who was getting engaged on stage, paled in comparison to Xia Yu's dazzling brilliance, as if she had become an ugly duckling.

Xia Yu frowned slightly and glanced around the banquet hall.

When she saw the red "囍" characters that read "Congratulations on the engagement of Shen Qinghan and Gu Ziming" posted everywhere, saw Shen Qinghan in her wedding dress on the stage, and saw the guests in formal attire around her, she was overjoyed.

Xia Yu's clever mind reacted instantly.

An engagement party?!

Is this the "highest level of treatment" that bastard Jiang Ye was talking about?!

Is this what he so confidently promised: two people, twenty dishes, and a soup?!

That bastard actually tricked her into attending his ex-wife's engagement party!

Xia Yu's cheeks flushed with anger, and she gritted her teeth.

She, the president of Blue Ocean Investment, was actually used by Jiang Ye as a tool to cause trouble!

"Jiang Ye, you just wait!"

Xia Yu cursed inwardly, feeling extremely embarrassed. Without hesitation, she turned around, her high heels clicking as she made to leave this place of trouble.

Just as she turned around...

A tall, imposing figure suddenly strode out from the corner and precisely blocked her path.

"Mr. Xia, since you're already here, why are you leaving without even having a sip of water?"

Jiang Ye had a wicked smile on his lips. He reached out and grabbed Xia Yu's slender wrist.

"Let go!"

Xia Yu lowered her voice, her beautiful eyes widened, and she glared fiercely at Jiang Ye.

"You liar! Didn't you say you'd treat me to dinner? Why did you bring me to your ex-wife's engagement party? Do you want to embarrass me enough already?!"

Jiang Ye not only didn't let go, but instead tightened his grip slightly, pulling Xia Yu closer to him.

He lowered his head, leaned close to Xia Yu's ear, and spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear, with a hint of pleading and a roguish tone:

"Do me a favor, Mr. Xia. I just bragged that I'd bring a woman a million times prettier than her. If you leave now, I'll lose face completely."

"I'll help you out, consider it a favor I owe you. I'll be your free driver next month, okay?"

Feeling the warm breath Jiang Ye exhaled on her ear as he spoke, Xia Yu's body stiffened slightly, and her ears instantly turned bright red.

She looked into Jiang Ye's deep eyes, which were so close to hers, filled with a hint of mockery yet also a touch of expectation.

Xia Yu bit her red lips.

She suddenly reached out her other hand and pinched Jiang Ye's waist hard without any mercy.

"hiss--!"

Jiang Ye gasped in pain, but he didn't loosen his grip on Xia Yu's wrist.

Xia Yu looked at Jiang Ye's pained expression, a sly smile flashing in her eyes.

Then.

Under the shocked and bewildered gazes of all the guests, and the insanely jealous stares of Shen Qinghan.

Xia Yu turned around.

Instead of trying to break free from Jiang Ye's hand, she naturally and cooperatively stretched out her arms and affectionately took his arm.

She slightly raised her delicate chin, and a breathtakingly beautiful smile bloomed on her face. Her voice, clear and languid, echoed in the hall:

"Honey, I'm sorry, I had a meeting at the company that made me late."

Xia Yu's clear and languid "Darling" was like a thunderclap, exploding loudly in the already deathly silent banquet hall.

The jaws of all the guests nearly dropped to the floor in astonishment.

Xia Yu, the aloof and unapproachable female CEO of Blue Ocean Investment, known in Hanzhou's business circles for her cold demeanor, actually called Jiang Ye "darling" in public?!

Moreover, looking at her clinging to Jiang Ye's arm so affectionately, where is the slightest trace of her usual decisive and powerful businesswoman demeanor? She's clearly just a little woman deeply in love!

Jiang Ye felt the amazing softness on his arm and the familiar, alluring scent emanating from Xia Yu, and couldn't help but smile wildly.

He took Xia Yu's soft, boneless hand in his own, their fingers intertwined, and looked at her with doting eyes, speaking softly:

"It's okay, work is important. I'm just glad you could come."

Their oblivious and sweet interaction was like a resounding slap in the face to the estranged engaged couple on stage.

Especially Shen Qinghan.

She stared intently at Xia Yu's face, which was even more refined and charismatic than her own, then at the expensive haute couture business suit she was wearing, and the natural intimacy between her and Jiang Ye.

Shen Qinghan was so jealous she was almost going crazy!

She originally thought that even if Jiang Ye could find a female companion, she would at most be an escort who was after his money, or some unknown internet celebrity.

However, she never dreamed that the female companion Jiang Ye brought would be Xia Yu!

The president of Blue Ocean Investment!

That's a group that's even bigger and more powerful than their Shen Group!

In front of Xia Yu, Shen Qinghan, the so-called "number one beautiful CEO in Hanzhou," was simply a joke!

"This...how is this possible..."

Shen Qinghan muttered to himself, his face as pale as paper, his body swaying precariously.

She suddenly remembered that Jiang Ye had said in the underground parking garage that he now had a woman, and that the woman often came to his Donghu apartment to keep him company.

At the time, she thought Jiang Ye was bragging and deliberately trying to annoy her.

But now, looking at Xia Yu's extremely cooperative demeanor, which even carries a hint of asserting dominance,...

Shen Qinghan's brain went blank with a "buzz".

original……

It turns out that the woman who frequented Jiangye Apartment was actually Xia Yu!

It turns out that after Jiang Ye left her, he not only did not fall into poverty, but instead climbed up to Xia Yu and even became the behind-the-scenes boss of Kunlun Capital!

And what about her?

She was like a fool, completely manipulated by Gu Ziming, this despicable man, and even became pregnant with his child. She was forced to stand here and hold this engagement banquet full of shame and scheming!

The intense sense of loss and overwhelming regret gnawed at Shen Qinghan's heart like venomous snakes, causing her unbearable pain.

……

The engagement party ended hastily in an awkward and strange atmosphere.

Next came the dinner.

Jiang Ye and Xia Yu were seated in a VIP seat near the main table.

Those at the same table were all prominent figures in the Hanju business community.

Originally, these people were full of contempt and disdain for Jiang Ye, their "ex-husband brother." However, after experiencing the series of shocking reversals, learning that Jiang Ye was the boss of Kunlun Capital, and seeing Xia Yu, the president of Blue Ocean Investment, personally come to support him, they changed their tune.

The attitudes of these business tycoons instantly underwent a complete 180-degree turn.

"Mr. Jiang, I've heard so much about you! I never imagined you were the mastermind behind Kunlun Capital. You're truly young, talented, and incredibly insightful!"

"President Jiang, President Xia, you two are truly a perfect match, a match made in heaven! Come, let me toast you both!"

"President Jiang, please take good care of me in Hanzhou from now on!"

Faced with the fawning toasts and compliments from these bigwigs, Jiang Ye simply smiled faintly, occasionally raising his glass for a sip, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant, displaying the composure and domineering presence of a superior.

Xia Yu, sitting next to him, perfectly embodied the role of a "virtuous wife".

During meals.

Xia Yu didn't put on airs like a female CEO; instead, she naturally picked up the serving chopsticks and carefully served food to Jiang Ye.

"This steamed grouper is quite good, very fresh, you should try it."

"And this abalone, you've been working so hard lately, eat more to nourish your body."

As Xia Yu spoke, she ladled another bowl of steaming chicken soup for Jiang Ye, even thoughtfully stirring it with a spoon and blowing on it to cool it down before handing it to him.

Looking at Xia Yu's gentle, considerate, and affectionate demeanor.

The business tycoons at the table stared in disbelief, their awe and envy for Jiang Ye reaching an unparalleled level.

It's astonishing that the icy female CEO of Blue Ocean Investment would lower herself to serve him meals like a submissive wife.

Just how much charisma and background does Jiang Ye possess?
