Helping My Ex-Wife Find Love Every Day - Chapter 29
The number of live viewers increased exponentially, as if aided by a deity. The link to the live stream was eagerly shared and reposted by netizens, and the minor internet celebrity unexpectedly welcomed the peak of her career.
At the same time, this also attracted Yao Xiangyi’s attention.
Yao Xiangyi possessed all the excellent qualities of a Bàzǒng—she was sensitive and alert. Subconsciously, she turned her head to look toward a particular safety passage, her gaze fixed intently on its slightly ajar door.
The driver followed her gaze, clearly startled, and explained, “That door is broken. It has already been reported to the administration department—”
Yao Xiangyi raised her hand to interrupt him. She tilted her head slightly, lifted her foot, and walked slowly toward it, step by step.
The driver and Qiu Qingshi exchanged glances and followed close behind Yao Xiangyi.
Netizen #1: [She’s here! She’s here! She’s killing it with her beauty. My heart is pounding, my soul is almost leaving my body. This feeling is amazing.]
Netizen #2: [She’s getting closer! OMG, her eyes are so bright, her skin is so fair, her lips are so moist. Where did this stunning beauty come from?]
Netizen #3: [I love that height, I love those legs, and I love that figure even more. Rich and beautiful—Qiu Qingshi married well!]
Netizen #4: [Her aura is absolutely incredible, and it matches that khaki trench coat perfectly. No one else could pull off that vibe.]
Netizen #5: [Yes, yes, yes! You can find plenty of ascetic-style handsome guys, but this is the first time I’ve seen an ascetic-style older sister. I can’t take it, I can’t breathe!]
Netizen #6: [Ahhhhhhh, refined scoundrel, trench coat gangster! I’d take her! I totally would!]
Suddenly, the screen tilted and shook violently, accompanied by the chaotic sound of the little internet celebrity’s retreating footsteps.
All the netizens: “???”
The driver heard a sudden commotion behind the door. He swiftly stepped forward, shielding Yao Xiangyi, and then yanked the door open. The silhouette of a short, plump man was seen disappearing down the left end of the stairwell.
“CEO Yao, he ran to the basement level two,” the driver said indignantly. “These people are too lawless.”
Yao Xiangyi’s face remained calm. “Take a few security guards down and find that person.”
Qiu Qingshi took her arm and added to the driver, “Be sure not to injure him.”
The driver acknowledged this and escorted them into the elevator.
The netizens weren’t concerned with whether the streamer escaped the security guards’ pursuit. They were too deeply engrossed in Yao Xiangyi’s beauty to be pulled away. One by one, they eagerly became porters, transferring screenshots of Yao Xiangyi onto Weibo, Tieba, and various entertainment forums.
Passersby rushed to comment—
[This is Yao Xiangyi? I haven’t read much, so don’t lie to me.]
[It should be real, after all, not everyone owns that Maybach.]
[My goodness! I used to think Qiu Qingshi married Yao Xiangyi for her money, but it turns out she discovered her devastating beauty long ago. She gets both wealth and lust.]
[Did she get plastic surgery? It looks too natural! Her plastic surgeon is simply a master craftsman, turning decay into wonder.]
The “Luosifen” fans guided the narrative—
[With a Bàzǒng like this, could my older sister possibly cheat? Please analyze the specific situation.]
[The Bàzǒng is too Su (charming)! I also want someone to give me fifty million for handbags. Movie Queen Qiu has such a good life! Sister, you didn’t love the wrong person, Yao Xiangyi is worth it.]
[My sister is usually aloof and quiet, but it turns out she only acts spoiled and cute in front of CEO Yao. I’m jealous [Lemon] [Lemon] I want that too.]
[Haters, don’t stop spreading rumors. I want to see how you spin this next. And those who unfollowed, don’t come back. I don’t want too many people fighting me for my sister.]
In just under half an hour, the following topics were trending on the hot search: #QiuQingshiActsSpoiled #YaoXiangyiSpends50MillionOnWifesBags #YaoXiangyiPlasticSurgery #TheCorrectWayToOpenABossyCEO.
The face-slapping moment Sutila had been waiting for was unexpectedly brought forward by the minor streamer’s unintended success.
However, it was harmless. The “Qiu Qingshi cheating” story was a massive event, a traffic peak every minute and second, with real-time popularity exploding.
The PR department, following Sutila’s instructions, began operating methodically. First, the Weibo account of their affiliated law firm released a legal statement, which the official Weibo account of Jinghong Entertainment reposted.
The statement explicitly mentioned: “Regarding the content posted by some entertainment accounts and internet users on online platforms that slanders and defames Ms. Qiu Qingshi, Jinghong Entertainment will initiate legal proceedings and resolutely pursue accountability, showing zero tolerance.”
—@JinghongGroupOfficialV: You can hurt our CEO Yao, but you cannot hurt our wife! @HaishiXinghuiLawFirm: #XinghuiLegalStatement#
—@QiuQingshiV: I tried hard to hide my Bàba‘s beauty, but you guys found out anyway. Let me be clear: I married her four years ago, so don’t try to steal her. Also, I love my Bàba. She works very hard every day, sacrificed her rest time to accompany me to the movies, and was even secretly photographed. So I also have to work hard to earn money to buy bags for my Bàba in return.
Reminded by her post, netizens immediately pulled out the kissing photos from the safety passage last night and compared them with Yao Xiangyi’s live stream screenshots this morning.
The comparison was shocking.
It was indeed Yao Xiangyi herself.
Although the image quality was poor, the side profile and figure were clearly visible.
Netizens: [Case closed! Case closed!]
Yao Xiangyi, who saw Qiu Qingshi’s Weibo post, pushed open the door to the CEO’s office, let Qiu Qingshi enter first, and teased her, “I appreciate the sentiment. If you really care that I work hard for money, then don’t buy the bags this time.”
Qiu Qingshi shot her a chilly look. “No way!”
Yao Xiangyi: “…………”
The employees of Jinghong Group couldn’t sit still. They hadn’t focused on work all morning, dedicating their full attention to the entertainment news trends. Hard work pays off; they could finally hit back.
They dug up the photos they had secretly taken of Yao Xiangyi inspecting the work earlier and posted them in the comments section of Qiu Qingshi’s Weibo.
In the photos, Yao Xiangyi’s long hair was gently blown by the warm spring breeze, revealing her clear and beautiful features, making her look as stunning as a painting.
The photos amazed the entire internet, garnering numerous likes and firmly holding the top spot in the hot comments.
The employees all proudly commented.
[CEO Yao really doesn’t mind spending money on her wife, and she even made time to go to the movies with her! My husband won’t even help me look after the kids. Alas, a ‘widowed’ marriage.]
[If the wife wasn’t so strict, I wouldn’t have been able to suppress my improper thoughts about CEO Yao long ago.]
All of this successfully caught Qiu Qingshi’s eye.
She clicked on the candid photos, momentarily stunned: My Bàba is so photogenic, I must take her to shoot a fashion blockbuster!
She clicked on the comments, her heart skipping a beat: These employees actually covet my Bàba‘s beauty! Unacceptable, absolutely unacceptable!
She sat down on the sofa, pouting. “Bàba, your beautiful pictures can only be owned by me alone, and only I can covet your beauty.”
Yao Xiangyi took off her trench coat, hung it on the stand, sat next to her, held her small hands, and kissed the back of her hand. “You’re the boss’s wife. Go ahead and teach them a lesson boldly.”
Qiu Qingshi saw that Yao Xiangyi was just teasing her. As if throwing a tantrum, she used both hands to smack and pinch Yao Xiangyi’s face, vigorously kneading it.
Yao Xiangyi pleaded for mercy repeatedly.
Qiu Qingshi pushed her away and went out to find Qin Chun.
Qin Chun was surfing the internet. New fans had joined the #BlindDateCP; she was no longer a lonely fan leader.
She looked up and happily called out, “Wife!”
She had been performing well lately. Qiu Qingshi regained confidence in her, encouraged her, and then gave her a new task: “Strictly prohibit employees from having any indecent thoughts about Yao Xiangyi.”
In short, only she could crave Yao Xiangyi’s body.
Qin Chun understood, made an “OK” gesture, and immediately went to carry it out.
Having settled the matter, Qiu Qingshi felt relieved. She returned to the CEO’s office to torment the soft and lovely Yao Xiangyi. Yao Xiangyi couldn’t do anything about her and, half-heartedly, allowed them to practice the ‘office play.’
Qiu Qingshi hadn’t had any fun for five months and couldn’t pull herself away. Yao Xiangyi was tied up with work and had to leave after the first time. Qiu Qingshi insisted on a second round. Yao Xiangyi, who spoiled her wife boundlessly, reluctantly indulged her.
One indulgence led to a third, a fourth…
It wasn’t until the end of the lunch break that Yao Xiangyi, supporting herself against the wall, managed to quietly drag her tired body out of the lounge, gently closing the door behind her.
That bothersome little goblin.
Yao Xiangyi was defeated.
She rubbed her face, drank a cup of coffee, and barely recovered some energy before burying herself in her work. A video conference had just ended when Qin Chun suddenly came in with the head bodyguard.
Yao Xiangyi frowned.
Qin Chun immediately retreated.
Yao Xiangyi asked, “What’s the matter?”
The bodyguard replied, “The thugs from last night were sent to the police station as you instructed, but their leader found a chance to escape.”
Yao Xiangyi’s frown deepened. She lowered her head and signed a document. After an unknown amount of time, she said in a low voice, “Did you look for him?”
“We looked, but we couldn’t find him.”
“You couldn’t even find one petty thug!”
The bodyguard swallowed hard, lowering his head in shame.
Yao Xiangyi hated having trouble with trivial matters. She rubbed her thumb and index finger together and looked out the window as if to put the problem out of sight.
She and Qiu Qingshi dominated the entertainment news today. That thug must have recognized them. At the height of the media storm, she hoped he wouldn’t cause any more trouble.
“Continue searching. Additionally, assign a few more bodyguards for the wife. They need to be sharp and skilled, preferably female bodyguards for convenience.”
The bodyguard took note. Just as he turned to leave, Yao Xiangyi called him back. “Also, check if that petty thug was instructed by someone else to deliberately make trouble for Bai Mengzhao.”
“Understood.” The bodyguard retreated to the door.
Qin Chun saw him leave and rushed in to remind, “CEO Yao, the afternoon routine meeting is about to start.”
Qiu Qingshi slept until the afternoon, groggily getting up to look for Yao Xiangyi. Finding her absent, she listlessly slumped into the CEO’s chair, trying to wake herself up.
She played with all the small gadgets on the desk again, but they were all just stationery items, which were boring. So, she opened the laptop, thinking about finding an old movie to enjoy.
As her hand touched the mouse, a flash of white light crossed her mind…
She recalled that Yao Xiangyi had received an email last time and seemed shifty, not wanting her to see it.
Should I take a look now?
She stretched her neck, peering outside the door, and noticed that the guardian, Qin Chun, was also missing.
Qin Chun was Yao Xiangyi’s special assistant. She went wherever Yao Xiangyi went. If she was nowhere to be seen, it meant Yao Xiangyi had gone on an errand and wouldn’t be back for a while.
Qiu Qingshi grew a little bolder and tried clicking on the email icon on the desktop.
A window popped up.
Yes!
Yao Xiangyi had logged in, and the session hadn’t expired, so no re-login was needed.
But Qiu Qingshi suddenly paused her hand.
How could the number one socialite spy on her lover’s privacy? That’s too unethical.
She condemned her own actions.
Yet, a woman’s intuition told her that this email was significant, hiding a massive secret.
After an intense inner conflict, Qiu Qingshi compromised: She had to look!
With a complex state of mind, she slowly moved the mouse, clicked the left button twice, and opened the “Inbox.”
Following the received time, she found an email containing…
A Divorce Agreement.
