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

"Mr. Zhou, this way please." A waiter's enthusiastic voice rang out.

Upon hearing "Zhou," Xu Daikui subconsciously turned her head and saw Zhou Yanci surrounded by several elite men, who happened to be sitting at the table next to them.

The man's expression remained as indifferent as ever, as if he hadn't seen her at all, and his eyes didn't even glance in her direction.

However, the two tables were so close together that Xu Daikui could clearly hear them talking about the digital economy.

Wang Guang naturally heard this as well, and he had no choice but to stop discussing anything about dealing with the Xu family.

Xu Daikui could only pretend to be calm and cover everything up. She watched as Wang Guang took the initiative to change the subject, "Director, leaving the hospital is nothing. You don't need to feel sorry for me."

Wang Guang chimed in, "Of course, someone as outstanding as you is admired wherever you go. I guarantee you'll soon find an even better place to showcase yourself."

Xu Daikui took it as him comforting her, and nodded with a smile, "Then I need to put my things at home first. Would you mind giving me a ride?"

Since we can't discuss business in a coffee shop, we can always go to her house, right?

To get revenge and wash away the pent-up resentment of so many years, she's now willing to risk anything.

"It's convenient; it's my honor to give it to you."

Wang Guang always treated her with gentlemanly politeness, gentleness, and consideration.

The two agreed and stood up to leave the private room.

Wang Guang went to pay the bill, and Xu Daikui prepared to go out and wait for him.

She had only taken a few steps when a tall, slender figure blocked her way, his deep and cold aura rushing towards her.

"Where is Shen Jun?"

Zhou Yanci glanced at Wang Guang not far away, his magnetic voice falling like jade.

She even invited him to her home. I don't know what kind of people men are.

Xu Daikui looked at him expressionlessly, like a cold doll that had lost its soul, no longer showing any of the expectation and vitality he once had.

"I have no idea."

She indifferently looked away.

Zhou Yanci stared at her quietly for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Since you've resigned, you should find a new way out for yourself."

"That hospital isn't a good place; stay away from the people and things there."

His humble and generous words made Xu Daikui laugh.

She bit her inner lip, hiding the mockery at the corner of her mouth, and looked at him with a calm gaze and a soft voice.

"I will find my own way and will not let myself starve to death."

"Mr. Zhou, you only need to take care of your Jiaojiao. You don't need to worry about my affairs."

After saying that, she coldly turned her face away.

Zhou Yanci naturally noticed her unusual aloofness.

It even carried hatred.

Are you blaming me?

Thinking of something, his handsome face became calm and composed again. "Xu Daikui, you were quite forceful when you hit someone, but you should have thought about the consequences. Besides, that hospital is not suitable for you."

"If you need it, I can arrange a job for you."

What job could compare to giving Xu Jiaojiao a hospital?

They cut off her livelihood one minute and then give her some insignificant compensation the next, just so their consciences can be a little better?

You don't have to.

Ultimately, the reason he stopped me was simply because he felt sorry for Xu Jiaojiao being beaten, and that's why he came to make myself miserable.

She forced a smile and said, "I did hit her, and you've already retaliated against me. If you're still not satisfied, then hurry up and divorce me."

"After the divorce, you can really punish me then. Otherwise, if I confront Xu Jiaojiao directly next time, she'll be the one who suffers!"

This is just the beginning. If that scheming woman causes her trouble again, she might stab her in the back.

Anyway, those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who wear shoes.

Even the ruthless are afraid of those who don't value their lives.

She has a worthless life.

It doesn't matter!

"Let's go, Director."

After saying that, she left with Wang Guang without even looking at the man.

Zhou Yanci watched as she smoothly got into that old man's car and left without any hesitation, his heart filled with a mixture of coldness and unease.

*

Sitting in the car, Wang Guang noticed she was in a bad mood. He smiled at her and said, "We're still not officially divorced?"

Xu Daikui bit her lip. "Yes. Divorcing someone with such immense power isn't something that can be done in a few words."

In particular, they also have a child.

Once she files for divorce, the court will quickly find the children listed on her household registration.

If she wants to prove that the child is not hers, she must produce the results of a paternity test.

But how could she and Mengmeng get a paternity test?

If the child is exposed, the Zhou family, being wealthy and powerful, might just take action to snatch the child away.

Unless she really has a way to transfer Mengmeng's household registration to someone else's household registration book.

Wang Guang thought for a moment, then asked, "Would you like to cooperate with me?"

Xu Daikui: "Director, what do you mean?"

"I'm planning to open a pet hospital, will you be my partner?"

He had been lying low for years, all for the day he could bring the heartless man who killed his wife to prison.

Now that he has gathered enough evidence, all he needs is a secure identity and position.

He must establish a strong presence as soon as possible to completely squeeze the pet-loving community out of the medical industry.

Xu Daikui hesitated, "But that requires a considerable amount of money..."

Wang Guang said, "Not all self-made capitalists start out rich. Besides, I've accumulated a lot of capital and connections over the years, which is enough to open a pet hospital."

Seeing her hesitation, Wang Guang continued, "Young people nowadays are increasingly reluctant to have children, but they still want to have something of their own to accompany them at all times, so the development prospects of pet hospitals are very good."

"If we join forces, we'll be guaranteed to make a profit in the future."

Xu Daikui is currently unemployed and wants to find a suitable field for herself as soon as possible.

It would be wonderful to have our own hospital.

But she couldn't just take advantage of Wang Guang for nothing. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Then I'll invest too. My husband gave me a villa as part of the divorce settlement. I inquired and found that it's in a good location and worth at least 500 million yuan on the market. I'll buy it as an investment."

Originally, after the divorce, she wanted to leave Beijing, this place of trouble, with Xu Meng. But when she thought about how her job had been stolen and her family had been destroyed by a mistress, and how Xu Guodong and his family would not get their comeuppance, she was still unwilling to accept it.

If they can establish their own hospital, as long as she and Wang Guang work hard, they will surely shine in the future.

The injustice she suffered will not remain hidden forever.

Wang Guang didn't intend for her to pay. "No need. You contribute your time and I'll contribute my money. After all, I'm not a professional when it comes to treating pets."

Xu Daikui smiled and said, "Let's talk about it after I buy the house and get the money."

She may not be able to make money in the short term, but her medical skills in treating animals are superb. Once the pet hospital opens, the families of the patients she treated before will definitely come to her for treatment.

She treats 80% of the patients at the Pet Home, and they trust her greatly, especially for some of the more difficult and complex cases.

She wasn't afraid that there would be no one at the hospital.

Wang Guang wasn't in a hurry and nodded in agreement.

...

In the afternoon, Xu Daikui went to the real estate agency again to repost the property's listing.

Logically speaking, that property should have sold quickly, given its good location and the fact that it was once inhabited by the wealthy Zhou family.

Several days have passed since her last post, and there has been no further news.

...

After posting, she left the real estate agency. Unbeknownst to her, someone in a black car parked on the side of the road was secretly taking several photos of her.

After she walked away, the person who took the photos got out of the car and went into the real estate agency.
