After five years of a cold marriage, I can no longer hide the child I secretly gave birth to.

Zhou Yanci concealed his slight sadness well. He was only lost in thought for a moment before sitting down, picking up Xu Daikui's chopsticks, and looking down at the cold dishes in front of him.

"I'm not the one who should be worried."

Fu Minghao was completely bewildered.

At this moment, Ji Yanmin hurriedly entered through the door.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Fu, we're sorry to have kept you waiting due to traffic."

After Tang Xuan sued Fu Minghao last time, Fu Minghao used his family's influence, and with Ji Yanmin's strong defense, Tang Xuan's divorce lawsuit was ultimately rejected.

Heartbroken and furious, Tang Xuan hired another lawyer and filed a second lawsuit.

Fu Minghao was in a terrible predicament, so he asked Zhou Yanci and Ji Yanmin for help in coming up with a solution.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Xu Daikui.

"Old Zhou, let's not sit at this table anymore, let's find another one."

Fu Minghao looked at the man with a strange expression and a gloomy face.

Zhou Yanci put down his chopsticks, and Fu Minghao asked the waiter to remove the dishes and bring a new set to the table. Only then did the three of them begin to eat and talk.

...

In the car, Wang Guang opened the car refrigerator and handed her a glass of water.

"Do you have a bad relationship with your husband?"

After asking the question, he realized he'd asked something unnecessary, so he added, "Did he cheat on me?"

He had seen Zhou Yanci and Xu Jiaojiao together several times at the hospital, never expecting that Xu Daikui was his real wife.

"Yes, we are negotiating a divorce."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guang's admiration for Xu Daikui increased even more.

"Those who are rich and powerful are not necessarily the best; those who are good to you are the ones worth holding onto."

Wang Guang offered her a word of comfort.

Hearing this, Xu Daikui couldn't help but ask, "I heard that you haven't remarried since your wife passed away. Did you love her very much?"

She used to think that as long as she could win Zhou Yanci's love, even if she died, it would be a happy thing.

How can someone who doesn't love you feel anything for you because of your life or death?

He'll just think it's good you died.

Seeing that he had been asking questions for a long time but had not received a reply from Wang Guang.

Xu Daikui thought he was hurt, so she changed her words, "Sorry, I spoke too quickly..."

Wang Guang smiled and said, "I love her very much, but unfortunately, God didn't give me the chance."

But he will definitely make the murderer who killed his wife pay with his blood.

"Director, do you have evidence of the Xu family mother and daughter colluding with Dean Zhao to launder money, and the details of the transactions?"

Xu Daikui steered the conversation back on track.

She guessed that since Xu Guodong and his accomplices dared to bribe officials and impersonate others in the hospital, they must have made thorough preparations.

Wang Guang pondered for a moment, "Once we discover a clue, finding evidence will be a piece of cake."

"Dai Kui, the Xu family and Dean Zhao have deep-rooted influence in Beijing, especially within the hospital. We can't do anything to them with just enthusiasm, but since you've come to me, I will help you achieve your wish."

He had been planning ahead for seven years, and those seven years of suffering would not have been in vain.

Xu Daikui was surprised to see that he didn't seem to be joking, but really wanted to help her take revenge on the Xu family.

"Don't you want to know what kind of grudge I have against the Xu family?"

Although Wang Guang wasn't seeking revenge against the Xu family for her sake, he was very interested in Xu Daikui as a person.

"That doesn't matter, as long as we share the same goal."

Xu Daikui guessed that Dean Zhao must have offended Wang Guang somewhere, which was why he wanted to take revenge on him.

However, her target was the Xu family, who were in cahoots with Dean Zhao.

Ultimately, their goals are the same.

"So when do you plan to make your move?"

Wang Guang smiled and said, "It won't be long, but if I help you fulfill your wish, you have to agree to one condition."

Xu Daikui asked, puzzled, "What conditions?"

Wang Guang said, "Take it slow. We'll talk again after you get divorced and settle your family matters."

Xu Daikui understood.

She was afraid that if she didn't divorce Zhou Yanci, and Zhou Yanci was so protective of Xu Jiaojiao, they would likely face Zhou Yanci's revenge if he found out about their plans.

"OK."

She nodded in agreement.

On Friday, Shen Jun contacted her.

He said he was the organizer of the art exhibition held in Haishi last time, and he was contacted because he was Mengmeng's guardian.

Their gallery has expanded from Shanghai to Beijing, and they host a networking dinner in Beijing on weekend evenings.

All the painters who had provided them with sketches were invited to attend.

Xu Meng was naturally among them.

"Okay, Dr. Shen, I will take Xu Meng there on time."

Now that we've signed a contract with Kuiyao Star, we have to cooperate with the organizers in everything.

Shen Jun wanted to say that if he was free, he could go with them, since he was Xu Meng's current guardian.

Just as he was about to speak, Xu Jiaojiao suddenly walked into his office.

"Dr. Shen, are you busy?"

Hearing Xu Jiaojiao's charming and laughing voice, Xu Daikui felt physically uncomfortable. She quickly said to Shen Jun, "Dr. Shen, you can go ahead and do your work. I need to go to work too."

After saying that, she quickly hung up the phone.

Shen Jun and Zhou Yanci both had feelings for Xu Jiaojiao, but she actually had no intention of interfering in either of their relationship.

She turned off her phone, put on her white coat, and was about to go check on the patients who needed follow-up appointments that day when suddenly her phone rang.

It's Teacher Cao.

Normally, teachers won't call her unless there's something wrong at school.

She felt anxious and immediately answered the call, "Hello, Teacher Cao."

"Mengmeng's mom, come to the school quickly! Mengmeng injured a little boy, and now his parents are demanding compensation."

Xu Daikui's mind went blank for a moment. She quickly hung up the phone and rushed to the school.

Shen Jun noticed that Xu Daikui hung up after hearing Xu Jiaojiao's voice, and he frowned.

Is she angry?

"Dr. Shen, at the end of the year, the hospital director said that they will select one of our new talents to speak at the year-end commendation meeting as the hospital representative. If the response is good, he will have the opportunity to receive the provincial young medical expert medal next year."

Who are you planning to vote for?

This year, among the doctors who entered the hospital at the same time as Xu Jiaojiao, there were only three whose educational backgrounds were comparable to hers.

She and her mother had privately persuaded many doctors and nurses to choose her as their spokesperson.

But Shen Jun has always been in charge of orthopedics.

In the orthopedics department, there were seven or eight doctors and nurses, all of whom listened to Shen Jun.

As long as Shen Jun takes the lead in voting for her, the nurses will definitely listen to him.

"I haven't decided yet, I'll just vote based on my ability."

Shen Jun has always been an upright person, and he would never falsify medical information.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiaojiao's face immediately stiffened.

Is Shen Jun deliberately making things difficult for himself because he favors Xu Daikui?

She clenched her fists slightly, bit her lip, and showed a touching look of vulnerability. "Dr. Shen, this speech is very important to me and a major breakthrough in my career. If you and my colleagues in orthopedics are willing to give me a chance, I will definitely remember your recommendation in the future."

As Xu Jiaojiao spoke, she placed a box of expensive coffee on his table.

The implication of bribery is obvious.

Shen Jun originally had a good impression of her, but after learning that she had interfered in Xu Daikui's family and caused that silly woman to live a very difficult life from pregnancy to childbirth, he couldn't help but feel a bit disgusted with her.

He pushed open the coffee box, his tone neutral, "I don't like this. I'll vote according to my ability. Dr. Xu, go back to work."

Xu Jiaojiao had no choice but to pick up her coffee box and slink out the door.

Standing outside the door, she was so angry that her blood was running cold.

If Shen Jun dares not vote for her this time, and if she loses the election because of him, she will definitely make sure he can't stay in the hospital any longer!

When Xu Daikui rushed to the hospital, she saw a chubby little boy nestled in his mother's arms, crying.

Her dream stood coldly to his side.

His gaze was filled with coldness.

Xu Daikui rarely saw her daughter with a stern face when she was angry, but her extremely angry appearance was seven or eight parts similar to Zhou Yanci.

She walked over, picked up Mengmeng with a tender heart, and then frowned as she looked at the little boy opposite her.

The little boy's mother was decked out in designer brands, and her jewelry was all limited edition.

Xu Daikui had seen Xu Jiaojiao often carrying these limited edition items before, so she recognized some of them.

"You're her guardian? Your child can't even speak properly and openly beat my son! This is outrageous! Today you either have to pay a million in damages, or she has to kneel down and apologize to my son!"

The little boy's father, carrying a black leather bag and dressed like a nouveau riche, saw that Xu Daikui was dressed plainly and came alone, so he assumed she was a pushover with no powerful backing.

He immediately launched into a scathing attack on her without any attempt to conceal his true intentions.
