兔子助手

She lowered her head to carefully examine the divorce agreement, counting the zeros.

Sitting across the desk was a tall man with refined, noble features and obsidian eyes that gleamed coldly. He observed Ji Fei as she bowed her head, covered her mouth, and trembled.

His heart grew colder.

If he had known it would come to this, Qin Xian wouldn\'t have tolerated it for so long.

Ji Fei was both pitiful and detestable. Her parents had been lifelong friends of the Qin Family but passed away before she came of age. Due to their dying wish, the Qin Family took in Ji Fei, only for her to betray their kindness by scheming to become his wife.

Afterwards, she couldn\'t live peacefully, stalking him repeatedly and stirring up trouble out of thin air, turning his life into chaos.

Now she had even stolen company secrets and given them to a rival firm, causing them to lose a major project and incurring the wrath of the entire company.

Even if only to appease the Board of Directors, he had to divorce her now.

"I\'ve already been more than fair to you. I hope you know when to quit."

If not for the sake of her deceased parents, Qin Xian wouldn\'t have left her any way out.

He had expected Ji Fei to threaten suicide and refuse the divorce, but to his surprise, she picked up the pen with a trembling hand.

Qin Xian let out a small sigh of relief when he saw this. It seemed Ji Fei knew she had gone too far this time and wasn\'t going to resist anymore.

Finally, they could get divorced.

[Oh ho! Finally, we can get divorced!]

Qin Xian: ?

Was that Ji Fei\'s voice?

Qin Xian had rarely heard Ji Fei\'s voice so jubilant and excited. For a moment, he couldn\'t be sure, so he looked up at her, only to see Ji Fei\'s face contorted as she prepared to sign.

Was that expression one of anger or... joy?

Wait, Ji Fei hadn\'t opened her mouth to speak.

[Great, 200 million! 200 million! How many houses could I buy with that? How many cute puppies could I raise? As expected of my ex-husband, so generous!]

Qin Xian\'s handsome, deep-set brows twitched.

He was certain Ji Fei hadn\'t spoken, but he had definitely heard her voice.

What was going on?

Qin Xian was always cautious and composed. He glanced at Secretary Jin beside him.

Secretary Jin was staring intently at the divorce agreement under Ji Fei\'s hand.

When she noticed his gaze, Secretary Jin immediately put on a look of \'sympathy,\' as if lamenting that things had come to this point.

Qin Xian had no time to ponder Secretary Jin\'s unusual expression. The key point was that Secretary Jin couldn\'t hear those voices!

"Miss Ji, you\'ve really caused big trouble for Mr. Qin this time. I hope after you leave, you can start a new life properly and not... sigh!" Secretary Jin forced down the corners of her mouth, offering heartfelt advice while inwardly counting down, waiting for Ji Fei to start making a scene.

After all, this stupid Ji Fei would explode at the slightest provocation. Once she started causing trouble, that generous compensation might be withdrawn, leaving her with nothing.

Secretary Jin felt that Ji Fei didn\'t deserve even a shred of kind treatment from such a good man as Qin Xian.

However, Ji Fei just glanced up at her, then signed her name at lightning speed as if rushing to be reborn.

[So annoying. Even though I took the blame, I can get divorced smoothly and receive such a big compensation. I won\'t bother settling scores with the real culprit.]

Qin Xian froze as he took the divorce agreement Ji Fei tossed over. A storm raged in the depths of his eyes.

What? Took the blame? Real culprit?!

Qin Xian hadn\'t yet recovered from the shock of suddenly hearing those voices when he was struck by this new information.

Wasn\'t it that Ji Fei, dissatisfied with his coldness towards her, deliberately stirred up trouble to get his attention, resulting in disaster?

Everyone had seen that during that period, only she had entered the CEO\'s Office.

Someone had even photographed her meeting privately with the vice president of a rival company.

The evidence seemed conclusive.

Although she had initially denied it when confronted, screaming and throwing a fit, in the end...

In the end, it was as if she had shouted in anger: Since you don\'t believe me, just assume it was me then, what can you do to me!

He thought Ji Fei had been caught and was furious from embarrassment.

Now it seemed there was an element of giving up in despair and acting out of spite.

"Mr. Qin, it\'s time to sign." Beside him, Secretary Jin grew anxious as Qin Xian held the pen without moving. Her usually calm and gentle voice became slightly strained.

Hearing her voice, Qin Xian suddenly felt that Secretary Jin seemed to be overstepping her bounds.

Recalling the earlier \'real culprit,\' he couldn\'t help but feel some misgivings.

Secretary Jin was his college classmate. They had known each other for many years, and he knew her well and trusted her completely. How could she possibly betray the company by doing something like this?

By now, Secretary Jin was impatiently handing him the pen.

She knew that although Qin Xian appeared cold, he actually had a strong sense of responsibility and was especially protective of his family. He had a soft heart, otherwise he wouldn\'t have been entangled with this stupid woman Ji Fei for so long.

Previously, several near-divorces had fallen through due to Ji Fei\'s tactics of crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide. Now that they had finally gotten Ji Fei to sign, surely there couldn\'t be a problem on Qin Xian\'s side.

[Tsk tsk tsk, she can\'t wait, huh? I bet this Secretary Jin is feeling guilty too, afraid all her efforts will be wasted.]

Qin Xian\'s eyes changed.

With a twist of his wrist holding the pen, his long fingers pressed the black fountain pen onto the desk.

This action startled both Ji Fei and Secretary Jin.

They saw Qin Xian\'s deep, dark eyes now fixed on Ji Fei, who hadn\'t had time to hide her expression of watching the drama unfold.

"I\'ll ask you one last time, did you really do this?"

He had always been cautious. If what he heard was true, not only would an innocent person have been wronged, but the company might be left with an immeasurable hidden danger. So he had to verify.

Secretary Jin\'s face instantly became unnatural, though she didn\'t panic. After all, Ji Fei couldn\'t prove her innocence.

Ji Fei felt uneasy under Qin Xian\'s intense gaze.

[What does he mean, asking this now? Is he having second thoughts about giving me the 200 million?! He can\'t be regretting it, right? Can\'t you sign first and then ask questions?!]

Qin Xian\'s heart skipped a beat, but he just stared straight at Ji Fei, as if determined to get an answer.

Ji Fei\'s eyes darted around as she couldn\'t help but complain inwardly.

[Of course I didn\'t do it. It\'s not my fault everyone\'s blind!]

[Clearly Secretary Jin also went in and out of the office after me, but those people in the CEO\'s Office Staff automatically ignored that. When asked about suspicious individuals entering and exiting, they didn\'t even need to check the security footage before dragging me out as a scapegoat.]

[This is what you call a subconscious blind spot.]

Qin Xian was suddenly shocked!

It wasn\'t just Ji Fei who had entered and exited his office back then?!

At the time, with both witness testimony and physical evidence pointing to Ji Fei, they had pushed her out as the culprit without even verifying the security footage!

He had also subconsciously believed Ji Fei was the type of person who would do such a reckless thing, so...

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Ji Fei say coldly, "I have nothing to say. Hurry up and sign."

Qin Xian\'s expression gradually turned cold. He didn\'t understand why Ji Fei wouldn\'t speak up when she knew the truth.

Could it be that she was afraid he wouldn\'t believe her?

Thinking of this, Qin Xian abruptly stood up.

Secretary Jin looked at Qin Xian in surprise, only to see him cast a glance her way.

That scrutinizing look made Secretary Jin\'s heart tremble.

Before Secretary Jin could react, Qin Xian strode towards the door with his long legs.

Passing by the confused Ji Fei, he said in a deep voice, "Come with me!"

"Huh... what for?" Ji Fei was completely bewildered.

They saw Qin Xian open the door and say to the busy assistants outside, "Retrieve the security footage from the evening of the 11th! My wife isn\'t quite convinced. Let her see if she was really the only one who went in and out that night!"

Secretary Jin, who had followed closely behind, heard this and her face changed drastically. "Mr. Qin!"

Ji Fei: ??

[This is so unfair! When did I say I wasn\'t convinced? It\'s written all over my face that I\'m totally convinced!]
