Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 161 - Broken (1)


Chapter 161: Broken (1)

Over the past few days, since something had happened in Li Hongyu’s own family, Li Hongyu had brought Zhao Shuncheng along with her to go back home. Once she settled the affairs over there, she showed off to the people in her family before she hurried back.

The moment she got off the plane, she headed straight to the cemetery. She did not know what had happened in the Zhao family lately, much less the fact that Zhao Youlin had managed to get into Zhao Enterprise during the period of time they left Shalnork. She had really caught her off guard.

When Zhao Youxi saw how worked up Li Hongyu was, she was not shocked. She just nodded and said, “I know, right? When that wench entered the company, she started giving me attitude. She secretly told the higher-ups in the company to cause trouble for me!”

“What? She told the higher-ups in the company to cause trouble for you? Were you in any trouble? How did they cause trouble for you? Tell me, I’ll have Dad teach them a lesson.” When Li Hongyu learned that Zhao Youxi was ostracized on the days she was not around and that the mastermind was Zhao Youlin, she immediately became anxious.

Fifteen years ago, when Li Hongyu entered the Zhao family, she started causing trouble for Zhao Youlin.

One, it was because Zhao Youlin was the wife of Zhao Shuncheng’s previous wife. Her presence undoubtedly reminded Li Hongyu that she had used less than admirable and proper ways to get into the Zhao family.

Two, it was because Zhao Youlin had the title of the eldest lady in the Zhao family, thus making her the most likely to inherit the legacy of the Zhao family within their branch.

That was why Li Hongyu had pretended to be a kind mother while secretly causing trouble to Zhao Youlin. It was all so that Zhao Youlin would know how to retreat and stop thinking about fighting for the legacy with them.

Just as she wanted, after being oppressed for years, Zhao Youlin became subservient, timid, and sensitive. Since young, the most courageous thing she did might have been the act four years ago.

Four years ago, Zhao Youlin had surprised Li Hongyu when she managed to get herself acquainted with Mu Tingfeng. But fortunately, later on, Mu Tingfeng treated Zhao Youlin coldly, and it made Li Hongyu feel at ease.

This was especially so when Zhao Youlin and Duan Yarong became hostile with each other because of this matter. The old master no longer cared for Zhao Youlin as much as before, so Li Hongyu was happy about it.

When she learned that Zhao Youlin finally got divorced with Mu Tingfeng, Li Hongyu could be said to be really happy, and as she took delight in Zhao Youlin’s misfortune, she thought that the stupid woman had refused to get divorced no matter what in the past, and she was forced to use abnormal methods to get rid of Zhao Youlin’s mother so that she could enter the Zhao family.

Now, that woman’s daughter got divorced and became a woman rejected by her own husband.

But Li Hongyu did not expect Zhao Youlin to not let her bask in her happiness for long.

Zhao Youlin’s divorce from Mu Tingfeng was the start of Li Hongyu’s suffering. First, she was publicly humiliated by this wench, and when she came back, Zhao Shuncheng nearly put the blame on her for it. Then, the old master did something surprising during his birthday. Not only did he let Zhao Youlin back into the Zhao family, she even became the heir personally chosen by the old master.

Now, she even entered the company and suppressed Zhao Youxi, causing all the effort she put into in the past to be destroyed overnight.

It must be known that she planned for a long time and put in a lot of effort to send Zhao Youxi into Zhao Enterprise, so what gave Zhao Youlin the right to enter it so easily? And she was even given such a high position right from the start. Meanwhile, her Youxi was still not part of the core management. Just like her father, she only had an armchair job.

The more Li Hongyu thought about it, the angrier she became. She tightened her grip around Zhao Youxi’s hand, causing Zhao Youxi to yelp in discomfort, “Mom, you’re hurting me!”

It was only then that Li Hongyu snapped out of her daze. In alarm, she let go of Zhao Youxi’s hand and caressed it to soothe her pain. “It’s my fault. I was too agitated, and I hurt you. I’ll rub the pain away now.”

Zhao Youxi did not appreciate her kindness. She pulled her hand away from Li Hongyu’s hand impatiently and snorted, “Don’t need to. That wench told the people in the company to cause trouble to me in every aspect, and they’re thinking of all sorts of ways to make things hard for me. She’s really vicious.”

“Then, what should we do now?” When Li Hongyu heard this, her expression turned dark. She thought hard, but could only think of one method. “Should I ask your father to go to her and teach her a lesson so that she won’t cause trouble to you out of the blue?”

“Teach her a lesson? With the likes of Dad? It’ll be great if Dad isn’t taught a lesson by that wench. Mom, don’t forget, that wench is no longer Dad’s daughter now. She has Grandfather and Uncle Shunrong supporting her, so she has powerful backing. She’s not scared of Dad.”

The moment Zhao Youxi said this, Li Hongyu’s expression became even darker. No matter how she planned things, she never expected the old master to make Zhao Shunrong adopt Zhao Youlin. Now, Zhao Youlin had these two powerful people supporting her, and she was even more confident now. She did not regard Li Hongyu and Zhao Youxi with any importance.

“But don’t worry. That wench won’t be able to stay smug for long.” Zhao Youxi cast a glance at Li Hongyu’s sour expression and finally decided to comfort her.

When Li Hongyu heard this, she snapped her head up and looked at Zhao Youxi in surprise. “You have a way to handle that girl?”

Zhao Youxi did not answer. She just narrowed her eyes dangerously. Her gaze was sharp, and within it, terrifying, diabolical venom dripped out of them. “You’ll know soon enough.”

Zhao Youlin did not know that danger was quietly creeping up on her. Ever since returning from the cemetery, she had been in a good mood, but this good mood did not last for long. It was destroyed by someone with an ulterior motive.

One day, Zhao Youlin was looking through documents in her office. Then, a secretary who was not Xiao Jingyao suddenly came in with a report saying that the other vice division manager of the development had something urgent to discuss with Zhao Youlin, and he was currently waiting outside the door.

When Zhao Youlin heard this, she instinctively stopped whatever she was doing. A crease formed between her eyebrows. ‘The other vice division manager of the development department? Isn’t that…?’

The moment she figured out who it was, Zhao Youlin instinctively had her secretary reject that person. The memories she had during the party were not good, and the man’s gaze on her just made Zhao Youlin want to vomit.

Zhao Youlin practically did not hesitate when she gave the order to chase the person away, but the peace did not last for long. The man who had been waiting outside forced his way in.

Zhao Youlin saw Zhao Yifei enter in an aggressive manner, and following closely behind him was her secretary, who looked absolutely lost. A frosty look settled in her eyes.

“General Manager, I told the vice division manager that you’re not free, but he insisted on coming in. I…” The secretary was a young woman, and she had never seen anything like this before. She was so anxious that she looked like she was on the verge of tears.

Zhao Youlin cast a glance at the woman and said faintly, “I understand. Go out first. If anything happens, I’ll call you.”
