Wang Xiaoxiao stared at Du Jiuyuan in disbelief. She suspected that her ears had deceived her.
Ji Jingchen's wife? Ji Jingchen was really married?
There had been rumors that Ji Jingchen was married but no one had ever seen him out with any woman. Everyone thought that it was merely a rumor.
Wang Xiaoxiao had never expected that Ji Jingchen's wife was actually a lowly junior intern!
Du Jiuyuan was equally surprised. This was the first time in five years that he had admitted his marital status in front of others.
In the first two years of their marriage, he had never taken her to any parties or social events, let alone indicated that he was married. He had never even worn his wedding ring.
"CEO Ji, I know I'm wrong. Please don't blacklist me!" Wang Xiaoxiao did not hesitate at all. She knelt down and begged Ji Jingchen, displaying a classic example of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
With Ji Jingchen's temper and power, permanently banning someone from the entertainment industry would only take a matter of minutes.
Ji Jingchen ignored Wang Xiaoxiao. Instead, he stared at Du Jiuyuan, grabbed her hand, and turned to leave.
Du Jiuyuan subconsciously pried his hand away. "I'm at work. Can you..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Ji Jingchen directly picked her up and carried her away.
"Jiang Cheng, from now on I don't want to see the person who dared to attack my wife on any broadcasting platform." Ji Jingchen's words effectively put an end to Wang Xiaoxiao's career in the entertainment industry.
Ji Jingchen carried Du Jiuyuan to the car.
Du Jiuyuan's feet landed on the car floor. She raised her hand to open the door from inside, but she did not expect it to be locked.
"I want to get out of the car!" Du Jiuyuan did not understand Ji Jingchen's actions.
The driver turned back to look at Ji Jingchen.
"Drive," Ji Jingchen ordered in a commanding tone.
The driver immediately started the engine. Du Jiuyuan was angered by their actions. She turned to look at the man beside her. "Ji Jingchen, I want to get out of the car. I want to go back to work. Please ask your driver to stop the car immediately!"
Du Jiuyuan was not very angry at Wang Xiaoxiao's bullying. However, she was extremely angry when she met Ji Jingchen.
Du Jiuyuan's anger was over the roof, but she still managed to keep her composure. She tried her best to control her emotions.
"You get paid several thousand Yuan every month, but you would have to endure such excruciating difficulties. Is that what you call work?"Ji Jingchen finally spoke, his tone cold.
"Du Jiuyuan, is the allowance I provide for you too little, or are you just fond of being tortured?"Ji Jingchen's clean and slender fingers gently pinched Du Jiuyuan's chin. His tone was soft, but there was a strong sense of ridicule.
Du Jiuyuan tried to push his hand away, but due to the disparity in their strength, she had no choice but to give up.
"A person like me definitely can't compete with you, who can make tens of millions in a few minutes. If you feel embarrassed, feel free to sign the divorce paperwork I've sent you earlier."
"What did you say?"Ji Jingchen didn't seem to know about the divorce paperwork.
Du Jiuyuan was stunned. Did he not come back because Mrs. Ji told him that she was asking for a divorce?
Even though she had been preparing her heart for a long time and had even drafted her words dozens of times, at this moment, Du Jiuyuan still felt like she had a bone stuck in her throat.
That's right! She loved Ji Jingchen terribly. She had once thought that being with him for the rest of her life was her destiny.
The car drove slowly, and the interior of the car was terrifyingly quiet. Just as Ji Jingchen's patience was about to be exhausted, Du Jiuyuan suddenly gained the courage to say, "Ji Jingchen, let's get a divorce."
Du Jiuyuan's skin was very delicate, and the spot where she had been hit by the thrown clothes was still red.
"Do you realize what you're saying?"Ji Jingchen's tone was exceptionally calm, and there was no joy nor sorrow in it.
"Ji Jingchen, let's get a divorce," Du Jiuyuan repeated. It was exactly the same tone as before, but it was also as calm as Ji Jingchen's.
Ji Jingchen only had one thought in his mind right now, and that was to strangle Du Jiuyuan to death. He forcefully suppressed his anger and whispered in her ear, "Du Jiuyuan, if you exaggerate too much, no one will believe you."
Ji Jingchen was used to seeing through people's minds. In addition to his lengthy experience in the business world, he could completely see that Du Jiuyuan was serious this time.
However, Ji Jingchen was unwilling to accept the fact that she wanted to leave him.
"Do you think I'm playing hard to get?" The only thing that remained in Du Jiuyuan's heart was Ji Jingchen, but it disappeared in an instant.
Ji Jingchen did not reply. He looked directly at her and silently agreed.
"Ji Jingchen, I've already signed the divorce agreement. We can both be free." A trace of bitterness spread in Du Jiuyuan's heart. She tried her best to control her emotions.
"So what? I won't sign it." Ji Jingchen's voice was extremely cold. The temperature in the car seemed to have dropped by a few degrees.
Du Jiuyuan glanced at him, and sadness flashed across her dull eyes.
She had long guessed that he would say this. After all, she had known him for five years and loved him throughout all those times. She still had a certain understanding of him.
Ji Jingchen was cold and overbearing. He would not allow the people around him to disobey him, ever. In his eyes, no one had the right to disobey his orders.
