Immediately after, all six cars came to a halt, almost simultaneously, the drivers stepped out, hurried to the rear doors, and opened them.
Then, Chen Wei and Zhao Xinlian witnessed the first thing to emerge from the cars: six pairs of legs that could be described as the golden ratio!
The proportions of these legs were the epitome of perfection, and while Zhao Xinlian had always been confident about her own legs, she felt somewhat dimmed in their presence.
Especially when she saw the six breathtaking beauties, whose looks justified phrases like "nation's beauty" and "heavenly fragrance," walk out of the cars, Zhao Xinlian felt even more ashamed of herself.
So beautiful! Truly beautiful! Beauty beyond description!
Even she, a woman, couldn't help but think about getting intimate with them.
Uh!
Suddenly, among them, Zhao Xinlian spotted someone that shocked her, none other than her life goal, her idol, the first female president Su Yumei—with a net worth in the hundreds of billions, numerous companies under her name, spread across the globe!
Why would someone like her come to the Civil Affairs Bureau?
Zhao Xinlian couldn't fathom it and was filled with doubt.
What was even more unbelievable to her was that Su Yumei was already an imposing figure by her status, but the five women following her…
Then, Zhao Xinlian saw that Su Yumei and the other five women were walking straight towards her direction.
Could it be that they were here to see her?
Zhao Xinlian pondered carefully; she was well-known, after all. Could it be that Su Yumei admired her talents and wanted to collaborate with her?
Thinking this, stars sparked in Zhao Xinlian's eyes, full of anticipation, perhaps from the next moment on, her life would reach new heights.
Indeed, divorcing that man was the right decision! Right after the divorce, good fortune was knocking at her door.
Su Yumei wasn't here to see her? Then she couldn't possibly be here for Chen Wei, right? How could that be? Absolutely impossible! He wasn't worthy!
As these thoughts flashed through her mind, Zhao Xinlian witnessed Su Yumei walk up to Chen Wei and hug him tightly, "Wei! Long time no see, I've missed you so much, little brother."
"Senior sister, go easy, I can hardly breathe," Chen Wei said.
Senior sister!
What? She... Su Yumei was actually here for Chen Wei? Why? How? He was just a failure, a good-for-nothing wretch. Standing with someone like him, wouldn't she feel like she was demeaning herself?
Zhao Xinlian was stunned, feeling as though her world view was forcefully refreshed. This was something that should have been utterly impossible, yet she was seeing it with her own eyes.
Zhao Xinlian even pinched herself hard, trying to prove she was dreaming, but then she sharply inhaled the cold air. It hurt, it really hurt!
"President Su, you, why are you here? Have you mistaken him for someone else... He..."
Zhao Xinlian was cut off halfway through her words by Su Yumei, "I'm here to pick up my junior brother, or rather, your ex-husband!"
What!!!
Zhao Xinlian felt like a bolt from the blue, the useless, despicable husband she had always looked down upon turned out to be the junior brother of Su Yumei, the first female president she had only seen on TV!
Seeing their intimate demeanor, it seemed their relationship was very close!
"How is this possible... Why... How did I not know..." Zhao Xinlian felt somewhat desperate.
"Nothing is impossible. Of course, you didn't know, and you would never know. It just goes to show, my Wei's acting is really too good."
Su Yumei hooked Chen Wei's nose with her finger, "Master ordered you to play the role of a weakling, how did you actually become one? Toiling away day after day in someone else's home? It breaks your sister's heart."
"After all, it's Master's arranged task, and you know her temper as well as I do, big sister. If I dare not follow her orders, do you think she would let me off easy?" Chen Wei could only express his helplessness.
Acting? Pretending to be weak?
Zhao Xinlian was bewildered, wishing someone would explain exactly what was going on.
"Alright, big sister, Wei finally regained his freedom and doesn't have to pretend to be weak anymore. Let's treat him to a good meal. He's been ordered around like an ox or horse every day and has lost weight," said the second senior sister, Xiao Ruoyun, as she tenderly caressed Chen Wei's cheek, her eyes brimming with tears.
"I think the second sister is right, we should let Wei get a good meal to replenish himself," agreed the third senior sister, Lin Huayin, nodding her head.
"Wei, what do you want to eat? I'll have the world's best chef cook for you," the fourth senior sister, Guan Shanyue, interjected closely.
"If I ever see you again, you're dead!" the fifth senior sister, Leng Qianqian, glared sharp as knives, her intense gaze enough to make Zhao Xinlian's heart tremble.
"Big sister, what do you plan to do with this person who has bullied Wei for three years?" asked the sixth senior sister, Liu Meng, curiously.
Su Yumei's gaze turned to Chen Wei, giving him the right to decide.
"Even with a short marriage, there's lingering affection. Even though she and I have no relations now, there's no need for retribution. Sisters, I'm hungry, let's go eat," Chen Wei didn't want to waste any more time or effort on Zhao Xinlian.
"Okay, we'll all listen to Wei," said Su Yumei with a gentle smile, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"Big sister, Wei, I've already instructed the chefs at Yunding Hotel to start preparing. Let's hurry over," said Guan Shanyue.
"Okay!"
With that, Chen Wei and his entourage departed in front of Zhao Xinlian.
Left behind, Zhao Xinlian stood there dumbfounded, motionless at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, her hair tousled by the breeze.
"..." She looked at the divorce certificate in her hand, far from the elation she had anticipated.
"What do you mean 'pretend to be weak'? It's just knowing a few powerful people. A weakling is still a weakling. I, Zhao Xinlian, will never look up to you!" Zhao Xinlian said spitefully.
No matter how powerful Chen Wei's connections were, they had nothing to do with her. Zhao Xinlian considered herself a thoroughbred horse, never looking back.
From now on! It's a clean break!
"My husband can only be a peerless hero! The elite of the elite! He Chen Wei, is not worthy! A man who relies on women, a freeloader! Disgusting!" After shouting all these words, Zhao Xinlian felt much lighter.
Pulling out her phone, she dialed her secretary, "I'm feeling a bit unwell; I won't be going to the company today. Handle what you can, and I'll deal with the rest tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, she got into her car. Zhao Xinlian decided to go home and get some sleep, hoping to forget everything that happened today, to forget Chen Wei.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Chen Wei and the six senior sisters had arrived at Yunding Hotel.
Under the watchful eyes of many, they entered the private elevator leading to the supreme VIP suite at the top floor.
A man surrounded by six beauties, each a top-level stunner, attracting envy, jealousy, and hatred was normal.
"Sister, this place isn't cheap to dine in, is it?" Chen Wei casually started a conversation.
"Indeed, the minimum spending is one million. So, I just bought the hotel. From now on, you can live here; treat it as your exclusive hotel," Guan Shanyue replied.
