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

Jiang Ye enjoyed Xia Yu's service and felt incredibly happy as he looked at the envious and jealous eyes of the big shots around him.

He turned his head and looked at Xia Yu's stunningly beautiful profile so close to his face. He couldn't help but secretly take her soft little hand under the table and gently squeeze it.

Xia Yu's body stiffened slightly, and a blush rose on her cheeks. She turned her head and glared at Jiang Ye reproachfully, but instead of pulling away from his hand, she gripped it in return.

This scene was witnessed by Shen Qinghan, who was sitting at the main table not far away.

Shen Qinghan sat next to Gu Ziming, watching Jiang Ye and Xia Yu's sweet interaction as if no one else was around, and watching Xia Yu's gentle and considerate actions.

Her heart felt as if a thousand steel needles were piercing it at once, the pain making it hard to breathe.

She was plunged into extreme shock and remorse.

The president of Blue Ocean Real Estate!

That's a force far more powerful than their Shen Group!

The key point is that Xia Yu, a powerful woman who is high and mighty and controls countless wealth and resources, would be so willing to take care of Jiang Ye, even personally doing small things like picking out fish bones!

And what about Shen Qinghan?

In the past seven years, she had never once served Jiang Ye a dish or a bowl of soup. She took Jiang Ye's efforts for granted, treating him like a free nanny, a servant she could order around at will!

What did she miss?!

She missed out on a wonderful man who cherished her and a top tycoon who could have made her a force to be reckoned with in the Hanju business world!

And now, she is to get engaged to Gu Ziming, this despicable and shameless hypocrite who only knows how to scheme against her!

Shen Qinghan looked at Gu Ziming, who looked somewhat comical due to his forehead injury, and was fawningly toasting the other guests.

The regret in her heart, like a volcanic eruption, completely engulfed her.

No!

She couldn't just accept her fate!

She couldn't just stand by and watch Jiang Ye be taken away by another woman!

Shen Qinghan suddenly stood up, made an excuse to go to the restroom, and hurriedly left the main table.

……

Outside the banquet hall, on a secluded open-air balcony.

Jiang Ye was leaning against the railing, a cigarette between his fingers, puffing out smoke.

Xia Yu had just been pulled aside to chat by several female CEOs he knew, so he took the opportunity to come out and get some fresh air.

A cool night breeze dispelled the noise and smell of alcohol in the banquet hall.

Just then.

The sound of hurried high heels broke the tranquility of the balcony.

Jiang Ye turned his head slightly to the side.

Shen Qinghan, carrying the intricate hem of her wedding dress, ran over breathlessly with red eyes.

Her makeup was smudged, and a few strands of her hair, which had been styled in a high bun, had fallen loose.

"Eno..."

Shen Qinghan walked up to Jiang Ye, her voice trembling, her eyes filled with pleading and regret.

"I...I really don't know..."

"I really didn't know that the prostitution incident was a setup by that bastard Gu Ziming! I didn't know he deleted your emails! I thought... I thought you really betrayed me..."

Shen Qinghan stepped forward, trying to grab Jiang Ye's arm.

"Jiang Ye, I'm sorry! I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! There was a misunderstanding between us, please forgive me? Let's start over, okay?"

Looking at the woman in front of me, her face streaked with tears and filled with remorse.

Jiang Ye's heart remained completely unmoved.

He turned slightly to avoid Shen Qinghan's outstretched hand and stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray next to him.

Jiang Ye smiled faintly, a smile that contained neither anger nor mockery, but only a calm and indifferent acceptance of everything.

"Misunderstand?"

"Shen Qinghan, now that things have come to this, do you think there's any point in saying any more of this?"

"Some things, once missed, are missed forever. Some hurts, once caused, are caused forever. They can't be erased with a simple 'misunderstanding' or 'sorry.'"

"But I..." Shen Qinghan wanted to say something more, but Jiang Ye ruthlessly interrupted her.

"Alright."

Jiang Ye waved his hand, his tone becoming somewhat impatient.

"Now that you're wearing this wedding dress today, and that you've already gotten engaged to Gu Ziming in front of all the celebrities of Hanzhou, then obediently go back and finish your wedding."

"After all, you're carrying the Gu family's child. You're already engaged, so don't cause any more trouble."

"If you get married in the future and don't have time to take care of Xinyu, I can make arrangements. You two can go on your honeymoon without worry."

Jiang Ye's words were like a series of cold, sharp knives, piercing Shen Qinghan's heart.

He neither scolded her nor humiliated her.

But his completely indifferent attitude was even more hurtful!

He didn't even bother to fight for Shen Xinyu's custody anymore, treating her and Gu Ziming as two unimportant strangers!

"Eno..."

Shen Qinghan looked at Jiang Ye in despair, feeling as if her heart was bleeding.

She knew that she had truly lost him completely this time.

She gave Jiang Ye a deep look, then turned around and, like a soulless puppet, staggered toward the banquet hall.

I felt particularly uneasy.

……

And this scene.

Gu Ziming, who was out looking for Shen Qinghan, saw everything clearly from the shadows at the corner of the balcony.

Looking at Shen Qinghan's distraught and reluctant-to-part appearance towards Jiang Ye.

A hint of malice and insane jealousy flashed in Gu Ziming's eyes.

Although he used every means at his disposal, even kneeling and begging for mercy, he barely managed to save the engagement banquet. But he knew very well that Shen Qinghan had now completely seen through his true colors and only felt hatred and disgust towards him.

And the culprit behind all of this is Jiang Ye!

If Jiang Ye hadn't suddenly appeared today, if he hadn't produced that damned evidence, Gu Ziming would have already won the heart of the beauty and successfully taken over the Shen Group!

Gu Ziming took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and stepped out of the shadows.

"Eno!"

Gu Ziming walked onto the balcony, staring at Jiang Ye with a sinister look, and said through gritted teeth:

"Stop pretending to be a good person! Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you're the boss of Kunlun Capital?"

"I'm warning you, Qinghan is my fiancée now! She's carrying my child! You'd better stay away from her!"

Looking at Gu Ziming, who was biting people like a mad dog.

Jiang Ye didn't even glance at him.

He took another cigarette from the pack, put it in his mouth, and slowly lit it with a lighter.

He took a deep breath and then exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.

"Cough cough cough..."

Gu Ziming choked and coughed repeatedly, stumbling back two steps.

"Gu Ziming, have you lost your mind?" Jiang Ye took a step forward, looking down at Gu Ziming with undisguised contempt and warning in his eyes.

"Which eye of yours saw me harassing her? She came to me herself, understand?"

"Since you went to great lengths and used any means necessary to snatch her away."

"Then I'll trouble you to keep an eye on your wife."
