After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Chapter 136 Job-hopping

I was so ashamed that I wanted to disappear into the ground. How come I always run into Jiang Yichen when I'm in a bad situation? And to make matters worse, I always run into Lin Nan, making him laugh at me every time.

I watched as Jiang Yichen, Chen Sheng, and Lin Nan stood in the distance, seemingly talking to each other. Then, they walked towards me. The surrounding crowd remained on their moral high ground, condemning me with all sorts of harsh words.

"This little girl is quite pretty, why does she like to fight? Look what she's done to her!"

"They assaulted someone and didn't even pay compensation. Is there no justice left?"

……

When Jiang Yichen and Lin Nan walked up to me, I heard Lin Nan say mercilessly, "You really are a jinx, you can cause trouble wherever you go."

Jiang Yichen seemed to have heard what Xiaoyu and the others were saying. He frowned and questioned me, "Why were you in Hongyu's office?"

I opened my mouth, but was speechless.

At that moment, I felt utterly pathetic and helpless.

Hong Yu looked at Jiang Yichen and Chen Sheng with a smug expression and said sarcastically, "President Jiang, don't you know? Your ex-wife has already switched jobs to my company. It seems you've really neglected management, not even knowing that an employee has left."

He then added, "By the way, Mr. Jiang, apart from Gu Mo, all the anchors from your company have come to our company. It seems your benefits aren't very good!"

Chen Sheng ignored Hong Yu's sarcasm and walked directly to my side, asking through gritted teeth, "Is what he said true?"

I lowered my head, not daring to look at Chen Sheng. My silence indirectly confirmed that what Hong Yu said was true. Chen Sheng said angrily, "Gu Mo, you're really something."

Just as he was about to continue, another voice rang out. Qin Lei said in a deep voice, "Since you believe that Gu Mo caused the harm to you, then just call the police."

I looked up at the sound and saw Qin Lei's figure. My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, slowly calmed down. However, I felt a sharp pain in my wrist and looked down to see Chen Sheng gripping my wrist, his eyes blazing with fury, as if he wanted to burn me alive. The next second, I heard his resentful voice in my ear: "You really know how to seduce people. First it was Song Le, and now it's Qin Lei. You always rely on men when you need something."

I flung his hand away and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. He's my lawyer now and can help me with very important matters."

Jiang Yichen sneered: "Is that so? What lawyer can be more capable than the Jiang family's lawyers?"

I responded angrily, "You're being ridiculous. I'll explain after I've finished dealing with this."

After saying that, I took two steps back and decided to call the police to deal with the immediate situation, which would also help solve the problem of people throwing things at my doorstep recently.

I had just greeted Qin Lei when I saw Xiaoyu and her assistant seem to be leaving. My eyes flickered, and I decided to quietly follow them.

In the stairwell, I took out my phone and recorded a conversation between Xiaoyu and her assistant.

The assistant seemed very worried: "Sister Xiao, what if I get caught if we really call the police?"

Xiaoyu comforted her, "Don't worry, the boss will handle this. You don't need to be afraid. He has no evidence that we threw things at his doorstep. As long as you stick to your guns and deny it, there's nothing he can do."

After recording this conversation, I was about to turn around and leave when I unexpectedly bumped into a "hard wall"—it was Jiang Yichen.

I was so scared I almost screamed, but Jiang Yichen quickly covered my mouth and pulled me aside to a secluded corner.

His gaze was sinister, and his tone was filled with anger: "Is this the mess you were talking about that you wanted to deal with?"

I didn't dare look him in the eye, and instead lowered my head, my fingers gently fidgeting with the hem of my clothes, and honestly answered, "Yes."

I thought Jiang Yichen would criticize or lecture me, but to my surprise, he actually laughed, which took me very seriously.

"Gu Mo, you really know how to cause me trouble."

Chen Sheng smiled and shook his head, but a complex emotion was revealed in his eyes. "However, it seems you already have your own plans. Since you want to play, then I'll play along with you."

After he finished speaking, he patted my shoulder, gesturing for me to follow him.

I hesitated for a moment, but I followed anyway.

We didn't speak the whole way, but I could feel that his aura and gait were very steady, as if everything was under his control.

When I returned to the original spot, Qin Lei was still waiting for me there.

When he saw Jiang Yichen and I return together, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

I nodded to him to indicate that everything was going well.

I looked firmly at Hong Yu and asked, "Are you going to call the police or not? If you don't, I'm going to!"

Hong Yu's lips curled up slightly, and he said stubbornly, "I'm the victim, what am I afraid of? Go ahead and report whatever you want."

I sneered, took out my phone, and played the conversation I had recorded in the stairwell. Hong Yu's face instantly turned ashen, and Xiao Yu and her assistant returned to the scene just then.

After listening to the recording, Xiaoyu immediately shouted at me, "You're slandering us! We never did anything like that!"

I looked at her without flinching and calmly said, "Whether it's slander or not, the police can find out by investigating."

Seeing this, Xiaoyu began to shift all the blame onto her assistant: "This is all your doing! Why did you betray me?"

The assistant was also enraged. She shouted angrily, "You're the ones who made me do it! Hong Yu even gave me some money. If you don't believe me, you can check the transfer records!"

At this moment, Qin Lei stepped forward and calmly said, "These conversations have been fully recorded, and the hospital's surveillance cameras also have records, which can all be used as evidence. I suggest we hand them over to the police directly."

Hong Yu's face grew even uglier; he hadn't expected things to develop to this point.

He glanced back at the two men and said angrily, "You two are useless and let us down at the crucial moment."

"It's all your fault for being so careless," Xiaoyu scolded her assistant in a low voice.

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, the assistant began to deflect blame, saying, "I was just following your instructions in this matter, otherwise I wouldn't have done it."

Xiaoyu and her assistant began to shift blame onto each other, and the scene became quite chaotic.

As I watched all this, I felt a surge of satisfaction.

Finally, all those who did bad things will receive the punishment they deserve.

I walked over to Qin Lei and gave him a grateful look. "In that case, you can expect to receive a lawyer's letter."

After I finished speaking, I left with Qin Lei.
