Regarding Jiang Chen’s admonishment, Ye Jingyi casually nodded her head, not taking it to heart.

Recalling what his mother had said earlier, Jiang Chen added, ”Oh, by the way, my mom mentioned that she hopes to have a chance to meet you.”

Ye Jingyi froze, frowning slightly and pondering for a moment before responding nonchalantly, ”We’ll see when the time comes.”

”Alright then.”

Jiang Chen did not insist further, and after the two had dinner together, they left one after the other.

After leaving the hotel, Ye Jingyi went straight home.

At that time, Ye Jianchang was already waiting at the Ye Family home. Ye Jianxiong, Zhou Ru, Ye Yanni, and Wang Dongyang were all accompanying him in the living room.

As soon as Ye Jingyi stepped through the front door, Ye Jianchang, who was seated in the living room, stood up enthusiastically, ”Jingyi is back. Did you find out the main ingredient?”

Ye Jingyi sat down on the sofa and nodded lightly.

”Good, tell me quickly,” Ye Jianchang’s eyes lit up with eagerness, ”Tell me the main ingredient, and I’ll immediately give you shares. You can just sit back and reap the benefits.”

Ye Jianxiong urged from the side, ”Jingyi, hurry up and tell your great-uncle the main ingredient.”

”Yes, hurry, we can make money without doing anything. How great is that!” Ye Yanni also pressed, speaking as if they had always been hardworking.

Zhou Ru, however, did not speak, looking somewhat displeased but not objecting either.

Ye Jingyi glanced at the two of them and, with a soft nod, revealed the main ingredient. She completely trusted Ye Jianchang’s words and disregarded Jiang Chen’s instructions.

After hearing the information, Ye Jianchang immediately called Ye Shen, the second elder of the Ye Family. Bursting into laughter upon receiving confirmation, he said, ”Haha... Good! Jingyi, well done. I’ll be leaving now, someone will bring the share transfer agreement to you in a bit.”

”Big brother, take care, I’ll see you out.”

Ye Jianxiong sent Ye Jianchang off with a sycophantic smile.

Once Ye Jianchang had left, Zhou Ru finally voiced her doubts, ”Jingyi, where did you get this beauty formula? I’ve never heard you mention it before.”

Ye Jingyi nodded, ”It’s from Jiang Chen. It’s his family’s ancestral secret. It was because of this formula that Jiang Chen managed to persuade The Four Seas to invest in our company.”

”Jiang Chen’s?”

Zhou Ru’s expression changed drastically, and she burst into a furious tirade, ”That Jiang Chen is such a bastard! Why didn’t he give us the formula earlier? Why did he have to go and talk to The Four Seas? What a load of crap! If he’d given it directly to us, couldn’t we have made a fortune quietly? Now, look what’s happened. Because of The Four Seas’ investment, the family’s attention was drawn, the formula was taken by the family, and we’ve ended up with nothing but scraps.”

”Exactly, that Jiang Chen just can’t stand to see our family do well. He’s terrible! And to think Jingyi married him, without any consideration for our family. What kind of person is that?” Wang Dongyang also started to curse Jiang Chen. He remembered the issue with the loan agreement all too well; he had been berated severely for it and still harbored a grudge against Jiang Chen.

Ye Jingyi furrowed her brow slightly and explained on behalf of Jiang Chen, ”Mom, brother-in-law, Jiang Chen was just trying to help me. Besides, that’s their family’s ancestral secret. Even if they chose not to reveal it, we can’t really say anything about it.”

”What help? If he wanted to help you, why didn’t he give it to you earlier? Why go to The Four Seas?”

Zhou Ru glared, grinding her teeth, ”And what do you mean we can’t say anything? Doesn’t he owe you a dowry? Just giving that small secret formula is letting him off too cheaply. And now the formula has been taken by the family, what have we gained? Nothing! He’s nothing but a good-for-nothing who causes more problems than he solves!”

Ye Jianxiong, returning and hearing the dispute, gestured with his hand toward Ye Jingyi, ”Alright, since the formula has been taken by the family, let’s just drop it. But that Jiang Chen really is detestable. Now that he’s given up his ancestral secret, he probably hasn’t got much left. Jingyi, you should hurry up and divorce him.”

Zhou Ru and the others were taken aback for a moment, exchanging glances as they suddenly understood.

Yes, we have to let Jing Yi divorce Jiang Chen. Otherwise, what if Jiang Chen wants to claim a share of the profits? No, we can’t let that happen. That’s our money.

Zhou Ru nodded in agreement, ”Exactly, Jing Yi, divorce Jiang Chen immediately. The family is going to give us shares, and then there will be dividends. If Jiang Chen is still part of our family, we’ll have to give him a share too, and we can’t have that. Hurry up and get a divorce.”

Ye Jingyi slightly frowned, now that the family was no longer forcing her to take part in an arranged marriage, and a marriage of convenience was no longer necessary, getting a divorce was indeed possible, but...

”A divorce is possible, but we can’t simply not give Jiang Chen his share of the profits. After all, that was his family’s secret formula which he gave to us. If we don’t give him a single cent, what does that make us, robbers?” Ye Jingyi uttered her decision with resolve.

Zhou Ru’s face changed, and she was just about to lash out when Ye Jianxiong pulled her back and gave her a look.

A little taken aback, Zhou Ru quickly caught on and kept silent. Humph, anyway, once the divorce is done, whether or not to give money, and how much to give, will still be up to us.

Zhou Ru nodded in agreement. ”Fine, we can give him a portion. Call him now and get the divorce over with.”

Ye Jingyi nodded, took out her phone, and dialed Jiang Chen’s number.

When Jiang Chen received the call from Ye Jingyi, he thought the Ye Family had come up with some new scheme to make things difficult for her. Without a second thought, he rushed over immediately.

”Jing Yi, what’s wrong? Is your family causing you trouble again?”

Upon entering the Ye Family’s house, Jiang Chen glanced at Zhou Ru and her group, looking concernedly at Ye Jingyi.

Zhou Ru spoke coldly, ”It’s none of your business what’s going on with our family. We called you here to get a divorce from Jing Yi.”

”Divorce?”

Jiang Chen was startled for a moment, but it didn’t really bother him. He turned to look at Ye Jingyi. It was no surprise that her family couldn’t wait for him to divorce her—the only thing that mattered was if Ye Jingyi disagreed.

But what he hadn’t expected was that Ye Jingyi lightly nodded her head, ”Jiang Chen, the issues with my family have been resolved, and they won’t be forcing me into a marriage anymore, so... let’s get a divorce.”

Buzz—

Jiang Chen’s head exploded, leaving his mind a complete blank.

Why is this happening?

Why!

To save Ye Jingyi from her plight, he had put in his utmost effort, thinking of everything possible, and doing everything he could. He had endured countless indignities and withstood so many cold stares. He bore it all and didn’t care.

The only thing he cared about was making Ye Jingyi happy!

But after all his efforts, now that the crisis was just beginning to lift, the Ye Family were pressing for divorce, and even Ye Jingyi herself agreed?

God, was this the reward for everything he had done?

Jiang Chen’s fists clenched tightly, tears welling up in his eyes, and a sense of inexplicable anger surged in his heart.

”I won’t divorce!”

Clenching his teeth and with anger in his eyes, Jiang Chen looked at Ye Jingyi, ”How can you do this? Is this a case of kicking me to the curb after I’ve served my purpose? I will absolutely not agree to a divorce!”
