The Zhou family didn't like Ruan Xingwan in the first place, and they became even more disgusted after the fake pregnancy was exposed.
His attitude towards Ruan Xingwan has always been cold and indifferent.
No wonder Zhou Cishen was so angry this time, it turned out that she had kicked the iron plate.
…
Ruan Xing went back late and waited for a few more days, but still had no news from Zhou Cishen.
The meeting at dusk that day gave her every reason to suspect that Zhou Cishen was delaying the divorce just to disgust her completely and make her wear a brightly colored and shiny hat wherever she went.
This was a way to get back at her for what she had done to him before.
Zhou Cishen was patient and delayed, but Ruan Xingwan couldn't just continue spending time with him. She had previously thought about making future plans after the divorce procedures were completed.
But she still had to live, and she didn't want to sit back and wait for death like this anymore.
After Pei Shanshan heard that she was looking for a job, she stopped eating the potato chips in her hand and immediately became energetic: "Come to our magazine. Our magazine is planning to sign a contract with a designer to create its own brand."
Ruan Xingwan frowned when he heard this: "I...can I? I haven't published a work in three years."
"Baby, you can do it. Anyway, if you try, you won't lose anything."
Ruan Xingwan thought that this was also the case and nodded: "Okay."
Pei Shanshan is an activist who does what he says, so he brought Ruan Xingwan's work from three years ago to the editor's office the next day.
After Lin Si read it, his eyes fell on the signature of the work, and it took him a long time to ask: "Ruan is your friend?"
"Yes, she is really amazing and her works are very inspiring. We will not suffer any loss if we sign her."
Of course Lin Si knew how powerful she was. Ruan was like an epiphyllum that suddenly appeared in the jewelry design industry, blooming in an instant and then disappearing without a trace.
Some people say that after she won the award, her inspiration ran out and she could no longer create works.
Some people also say that she was attracted by a rich man, married into a wealthy family, and had a child in a hidden marriage.
In short, there are all kinds of rumors.
But no one thought that after three years, when everyone had forgotten her, she would come back.
Lin Si said: "Does she have time tonight? Let's have a meal together."
Pei Shanshan knew that what he meant by asking was that the matter was almost settled, so she nodded immediately: "Yes, I will tell her now."
…
During the meal, Ruan Xingwan had a good chat with Pei Shanshan's editor-in-chief. Although she repeatedly stated that she had not picked up a paintbrush in the past three years, Lin Si also said that it was okay and just asked her to paint according to the requirements within this week.
Create a sketch of a work in the specified style.
If the boss thinks there are no problems, he can sign the contract directly.
After eating, it was already a little late. Lin Si said: "It's not easy to take a taxi around here. It's not safe for you two girls. I'll take you back."
"Okay, okay, then I'm going to use the toilet."
After saying that, he looked at Ruan Xingwan again, "Xingxing, are you going?"
"Let's get together."
Pei Shanshan said: "Editor Lin, please wait for us, we will be back soon."
Lin Si smiled: "It's okay, don't worry."
Coming out of the bathroom, Pei Shanshan washed her hands and said, "It's finally done, we're done!"
Ruan Xingwan didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and was still a little worried: "I'm afraid your boss won't be satisfied with the work I designed by then. I'm sorry for you and Editor Lin."
Pei Shanshan said: "Baby, you are overthinking. Our boss is a cheerful old man. He is very nice and rarely takes care of things. Chief Editor Lin has the final say on all matters in the magazine. He just follows the process."
Just stay there for a while.
Editor Lin values you so much, so there must be no problem."
As soon as Pei Shanshan finished speaking, the sound of high heels hitting the floor came from the bathroom door.
The next second, Shu Siwei appeared in front of them.
It seemed that neither of them expected to meet here. After both parties were stunned for a moment, Shu Siwei snorted disdainfully: "What a mangy dog, he can follow him wherever he goes."
Ruan Xingwan pulled a piece of paper to wipe the water on his hands, and said casually: "If you want to be beaten, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."
"you……"
Shu Siwei knew that he was no match for Ruan Xingwan last time, and this time they were two people, with no chance of winning no matter what.
Pei Shanshan said: "What are you doing? Do you want me to hold a loudspeaker and shout for you to let everyone come and see what a live mistress looks like?"
Shu Siwei sneered and said angrily: "Ruan Xingwan, are you still shameless? Didn't you know what means you used to marry into the Zhou family?
Now you have the nerve to call me a mistress, but I don’t think you are much better than me.
Why, do you really think that if you succeed in becoming a leader, you can become a bitch and build a memorial arch?"
Just as Pei Shanshan wanted to fight back, Ruan Xingwan grabbed her wrist.
Ruan Xingwan looked at her calmly: "Did Zhou Cishen tell you that?"
At first glance, Shu Siwei looked like a woman with big breasts and no brains. She didn't mention this matter twice before. Judging from the complacent look on her face now and adding insult to injury, it can only mean that she only knew about it.
"Yes, he said that he is disgusted with women like you. He also said that the thing he regrets most in his life is meeting you at dusk. You are like a piece of smelly and sticky dog skin plaster. When you tear it off, it is all over your body.
The smell makes me want to rub any skin that touches you to pieces."
After Shu Siwei finished speaking, looking at Ruan Xingwan's expressionless face, he realized that he was afraid and took a step back vigilantly to prevent her from doing anything again.
But Ruan Xingwan didn't say anything, and he didn't mean to hit her. He just threw the paper he wiped his hands into in the trash can and turned around to leave.
Pei Shanshan saw this and quickly followed.
"Xingxing, don't take what that woman says to heart. Those couple are shameless. They are not good things. Just think of her as farting. Don't be angry..."
Before Pei Shanshan finished speaking, she saw the dog-man who appeared in her mouth just now standing not far in front, talking lightly to someone.
Ruan Xingwan acted as if he hadn't seen him, without squinting his eyes and walking very quickly.
Jiang Yan felt an approaching murderous aura behind him. He couldn't help but turn his head, looked at the woman who was getting closer, and said, "Isn't that your wife? Why is she here?"
Zhou Cishen raised his eyes, his brows furrowed without trace, and a hint of impatience flashed in his dark eyes.
You followed him here and still said you just wanted a divorce?
Since when did this woman become more scheming?
Seeing her approaching, Zhou Cishen was about to speak coldly, but he didn't know that Ruan Xingwan didn't even look at him, and his steps didn't even pause.
I passed him by with an expressionless face, as fast as a gust of wind.
"..."
On the other hand, Pei Shanshan, who was following closely behind, paused beside Zhou Cishen, opened her mouth as if she wanted to scold him, but felt that the time was not right, so she ran away.
Jiang Yan, who witnessed the whole process, laughed twice to ease the embarrassment: "Did I admit the wrong person?"
Zhou Cishen dislikes his wife, it can even be said that he hates her. This is something that everyone in the entire circle knows.
