Upon hearing Gu Jingyan’s words, Yun Yiyi chuckled. What kind of condition was that? Was he really so arrogant to think that the Gu family owned the entire Jiang City? “Why should I agree to your condition?”
Gu Jingyan smiled smugly. “Why? If you want a divorce, you’ll need me to sign the divorce agreement.”
“Gu Jingyan, you’re too vindictive!” Yun Yiyi said indignantly. After a moment, as though she had thought of something, she said in a challenging tone, “Fine. However, if I manage to find someone to marry me in three days, not only will you have to sign the divorce agreements, but you and Qiao Feilan have to apologize to me three times! On top of that, you’ll have to make sure your mother doesn’t bother me. After that, we’ll no longer have anything to do with each other. Do you dare to accept my conditions?”
“Why wouldn’t I dare?”
“In that case, I agree to your conditions!”
Gu Jingyan was infuriated by Yun Yiyi’s words. He did not expect Yun Yiyi to agree to his conditions at all. After a while, he gritted his teeth and asked, “Yun Yiyi, are you really serious?
“Of course! It seems like you’re really reluctant!” Determination shone in Yun Yiyi’s eyes when she spoke. She could sense Gu Jingyan was reluctant to divorce her. But, how could she stay with him and let him humiliate her and trample on her dignity for the rest of her life? She would make Gu Jingyan and Qiao Feilan pay for their actions. She knew she could not ask for help from his mother, Tian Ya, regarding the divorce. If Tian Ya knew about the divorce, Tian Ya would definitely make things even more difficult. Therefore, she knew she could only deal with Gu Jingyan in order to get a divorce.
She knew all she had to do to get Gu Jingyan to sign the divorce papers was to infuriate him. Moreover, he had always been proud and arrogant. He would not think she had a chance of remarrying at all so he would not hesitate to agree to her conditions.
In Yun Yiyi’s opinion, even if she had to get married again, at least, it would be on her terms this time around. Unlike her marriage to Gu Jingyan, she would not be sold off cheaply like a commodity by her family!
Gu Jingyan picked up the pen angrily and signed his name on the divorce papers. He looked at her mockingly and said, “You’ll definitely fail! No one’s going to marry a divorcee, especially when you’re someone I, Gu Jingyan, discarded!”
Yun Yiyi took the divorce agreement from Gu Jingyan and said with a smile, “We’ll just have to wait and see then…” It was just as she had expected, he had signed the divorce agreement hastily after she deliberately angered him. All she needed to do now was to find someone to marry!
When Yun Yiyi left Luoxia Villa, she saw Tian Ya’s private car driving into the villa. At the same time, her mobile phone lit up again. She threw the phone to the passenger seat and focused on driving instead. Over the next three days, she did not have to worry about Tian Ya. After all, Gu Jingyan had agreed to deal with his mother.
…
In Cafe Florian, the most famous cafe in Jiang City.
It was a cloudy day.
Yun Yiyi wore a long off-the-shoulder black dress. Her long hair draped across one of her shoulders. She had applied light makeup on her delicate face today. At this moment, the corners of her lips were curled up into a faint smile as she made her way over to a table by the window and took a seat.
She put a blue folder at the side of the table after she took out a sheet of paper and began to sketch absentmindedly with a pencil.
As time passed, the object of her sketch was revealed to be a man with short black hair. His face was handsome despite the stern expression. His dark eyes that seemed bottomless were long and narrow. He had a distant and arrogant air about him that made it difficult for others to approach him. In her sketch, his beautiful lips were slightly pursed. He wore a black suit that complemented his slender body. All in all, he had a noble and hard-to-ignore aura.
In fact, the object of Yun Yiyi’s sketch was in the cafe as well. His slender fingers were rapidly typing on a keyboard at this moment. As though he could sense her gaze from the table in front of him, his fingers paused briefly, and he looked up at her with his cold phoenix eyes. In just a blink of an eye, he shifted his gaze back to his laptop and continued typing.
Time passed silently as the rhythmic sound of tapping rang in the air. In just a blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
During the entire time, Yun Yiyi stayed silent. She knew the man in front of her did not like to be disturbed while he was working. When she finally saw the man turning off his laptop and was preparing to leave, she made her way to him and placed her sketch on his table. She smiled politely as she said, “I think I have a talent for drawing. I really should have applied for art school.”
The man was Fei Mo, the president of the Fei Corporation. He was famous for his business acumen. If he claimed Fei Corporation was ranked second in Jiang City, no company in the city would dare to claim they ranked first.
Yun Yiyi had spent the entire night researching candidates before she finally decided on this highly qualified man. She knew it would not be easy to convince him, but she found him most suitable as a marriage partner. Only someone like him was capable of suppressing the Gu family. Although she was aware that her way of approaching him was rather old-fashioned, she really could not think of other ways to get close to him.
Fei Mo glanced at the sketch on the table. There was a sharpness in his eyes that spoke of his experience as he studied the sketch. He saw his lips were slightly pursed in the sketch. She had managed to capture his coldness on paper. His eyes moved down to the lower right corner of the paper and saw three beautifully written words: Yun Yiyi. Next to the sketch, he saw a golden business card with the words: Yun Yiyi, Senior Editor of Hua Corporation’s Public Relations Department. Then, he said coldly in his deep and charming voice, “I don’t accept interviews.”
“I’m not here to interview you today.” Yun Yiyi extended her hand to Fei Mo for a handshake. “Nice to meet you, President Fei.”
Yun Yiyi was not worried about Fei Mo rejecting her handshake. She knew he was a gentleman despite his aloof appearance. If a woman took the initiative and extended her hand out for a handshake, a gentleman could hardly refuse. It was basic social etiquette.
Fei Mo’s eyes seemed like they were as deep as the sea as he stared at Yun Yiyi for a moment. After a beat, he extended his hand and shook her hand. Although his face remained expressionless, no traces of displeasure could be seen.
His hand was dry and cool to the touch. It was cold just like him. He was famous in Jiang City for being unsmiling and aloof.
After Yun Yiyi withdrew her hand, she looked at him and earnestly said, “President Fei, can I have a few moments of your time? You’ll definitely be interested in what I have to say.”
Fei Mo picked up the laptop on the table and said in a low voice, “I have nothing to say to you.”
Yun Yiyi was not anxious. She had dealt with many men like him at work. She said, “When we shook hands earlier, you held my hand with a slight pressure for roughly ten seconds. Handshakes usually last for three to five seconds. This proves you’re interested in me, even if it’s just a little bit.”
Fei Mo, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks when he heard these words. He narrowed his eyes and turned around. If it was possible, his expression seemed to have turned even colder than before. He looked at Yun Yiyi. Despite the seemingly friendly smile on her face, there was a small trace of indifference in it. His instincts told him that she did not come here to look for him for superficial favors.
When Yun Yiyi saw the frosty expression on his face, she knew she had made him unhappy because she had seen through his thoughts. She was feeling slightly nervous. After all, it would be as easy as stepping on an ant if he so wished to destroy her. She mustered up her courage and said with a smile, “President Fei, please take a seat. I’ll only take five minutes of your time.”
Fei Mo placed his laptop on the table and returned to his seat. He stared at Yun Yiyi with his dark and deep cold eyes as he asked, “Are you good at reading people’s expressions and behaviors?”
“I only know a little…” Yun Yiyi smiled politely. She finally relaxed a little after she saw him sitting down.
Fei Mo exuded a domineering aura not dissimilar to a king. When he spoke, his tone was indifferent, “Seeing as how your sketch managed to capture my expression in detail, you must be a meticulous person…”
“Thank you for your praise, President Fei.” Yun Yiyi smiled.
Fei Mo continued looking at Yun Yiyi coldly. After pondering for a moment, he said, “You said you have something to say that I’ll be interested in… What is it?”
Yun Yiyi opened the documents in front of Fei Mo. Although she had done her homework before meeting him, she still felt anxious. What if… What if he was not interested?
Fei Mo’s cold eyes landed on the document in front of him. A frown appeared on his face immediately as he pursed his lips. His aura seemed to have turned colder as well.
Yun Yi felt chills running up her spine. Was he angry?
After a few moments, Fei Mo’s cold aura seemed to dissipate. He regarded Yun Yiyi with a complicated look in his eyes. “In this contract, you stated that you’re willing to become a public relations officer in Fei Corporation for five years without pay. However, I feel it’s my duty to inform you that the Fei Corporation has an internal Public Relations Department so I have no need for you. Second, you’re the ex-wife of Gu Jingyan, the young master of the Gu family. In other words, you’re a divorcee.” He paused briefly before he continued to say, “I appreciate your honesty, but these two factors alone won’t be able to convince me to marry you…”
