Chapter 98 1 Is everything going well?

Chapter 98 Is everything going well?
Li Fei came to the Civil Affairs Bureau today with Wen Ruoci.

Li Fei was mainly worried that He Ci agreed so readily, wondering if he was planning something behind the scenes. She was a little concerned, so she came here together.

Seeing Wen Ruoci got into the car without saying a word, “Is everything going well?”

Wen Ruoci looked at the divorce certificate in her hand and said, “It went very smoothly.”

It was so smooth that it even made her a little dazed. It seemed a little bit unbelievable that she could divorce He Ci so smoothly.

Li Fei was still a little worried, “Did He Ci do anything?”

Wen Ruoci lowered her eyes, held her forehead, and murmured a smile, “No, it’s probably because He Huai woke up, and he doesn’t have so much resentment in his heart anymore.”

Now that I don’t have that much resentment anymore, maybe I don’t want to continue to torture her.

So, I chose to let go.

Even though Li Fei felt that things were a bit strange, since the divorce had gone smoothly, she didn’t say anything more.

“Now you can finally do what you want to do in peace.”

She looked at the scenery outside the window and murmured, yes, she could finally do what she wanted to do without any scruples…

………………

In this world, gossip always spreads the fastest.

Basically most people in the upper class knew that Wen Ruoci and He Ci were divorced.

Shen Tianyi, Yu Shaoze and some other friends were determined to celebrate for He Ci.

Celebrating that he can finally escape from the suffering.

Yu Shaoze poured a glass of wine for He Ci and said with a smile,
“Congratulations, you have finally let it go and can move on to a new life.”

Here, he paused, not changing his gossipy nature, “But I’m still curious about how you figured it out.”

He Ci picked up the wine glass and shook the red liquid in the transparent glass, reflecting his figure. He looked at his eyes that seemed to turn blood red, and spoke slowly and leisurely, with a hint of cruelty,

“If I don’t divorce her, then I’ll be their only rival. But if I divorce her, then I won’t be the only rival… I just want to know if they can really be together without me…”

Shen Tianyi, “…”

This is not letting go, it is clearly a change of strategy…

He Ci narrowed his eyes, “And…”

Yu Shaoze became even more curious, “What?”

He Ci lowered his eyes, “Nothing.”

In the end he said nothing, and Yu Shaoze was a little disappointed that he didn’t get anything out of him.

“Drink, drink.”

Shen Tianyi felt that the congratulatory speech now was even more terrifying than before.

In the past, he was just a little irritable, but at least you could still show his emotions. Now, it’s as if he has hidden all his emotions inside and polished himself into a different appearance, deep, dull, and gloomy, which makes people scared at first sight.

He suddenly thought that getting divorced like this, he didn’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

…………………

There are a lot of gossip and rumors out there.

However, Wen Ruoci didn’t pay much attention to it. After all, after a while, when something new came out, they would shift their attention to this kind of gossip.

A few days later, she received a call saying that she was expected to attend a mobilization meeting for the senior high school students. As an outstanding graduate and also very famous, the school hoped that she could give a speech on stage.

Originally she had no interest in it, but the planner tried hard to persuade her, saying that it was of great significance and would be held in a grand manner. Her brother Wen Yanyou was also one of the students taking the exam, and they hoped that she could participate.

Due to the planner’s strong lobbying and the mention of Wen Yanyou, she finally changed her mind.

“When?”

“Next Monday, you don’t need to prepare anything. Just go on stage and say a few words.”

Today is Friday, and next Monday will be three days later.

“Okay, I got it. I’ll come over when the time comes.”

After hanging up the phone, Wen Ruoci was distracted for a while and called Li Fei. They were from the same high school, and it would be too boring for her to attend the mobilization meeting alone, so she wanted to take Li Fei with her.

After listening for a while, Li Fei calculated the time and said, “Ruoci, I’m so sorry. I have an important magazine photo shoot that day and can’t go with you.”

“Forget it, just focus on your work, I’ll go by myself.”

“Okay…that is…” Having said this, she hesitated to speak. He Ci and they were from the same school. She wondered if the teachers in the school would be so short-sighted as to invite He Ci as well.

These two just got divorced, if they met again at school…

Wen Ruoci frowned, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Li Fei, “No, nothing, just be careful.”

She felt that it was unlikely to be such a coincidence.

Wen Ruoci smiled and said, “Don’t worry about what might happen at school.” A few minutes after she hung up the phone, the phone rang again. She looked at the screen and saw that it was Quan Shijin’s call. She curved her eyebrows and said, “Shijin.”

Quan Shijin has been busy finishing work these days and has no time to call her. He suddenly saw her face and didn’t know if it was because he hadn’t seen her for a long time, but he always felt that she seemed to be in a good mood.

Quan Shijin looked at her lovingly, “What happened? Why do you look so happy?”

Wen Ruoci shook her head. “Nothing. When will you come back?”

She has not told Quan Shijin about her divorce from He Ci.

Although it is not clear whether Bai Yu told Quan Shijin.

But for such an important matter, she hoped to meet him in person and tell him, rather than through the cold machine of a mobile phone.

Quan Shijin smiled and said, “You missed me. I am almost done with my work. I will be back in three days.”

Wen Ruoci was slightly surprised, “Three days later?”

“What’s wrong? Can’t you come back in three days?”

Wen Ruoci shook her head. “No, I just think it’s such an unfortunate coincidence that you come back. I have to go to school in three days to hold a mobilization meeting for the students. Otherwise, I can come to the airport to pick you up.”

Quan Shijin smiled and asked, “Why did the school invite you?”

Wen Ruoci said as if it was a matter of course, “Because I am an outstanding graduate, a celebrity, and a public figure. All the students in the school know me.”

Quan Shijin thought thoughtfully, “When you return to school, will you relive your old dreams?”

“What do you mean?”

What old dreams could she have to relive?

Wen Ruoci frowned.

Or did Quan Shijin mean her and He Ci?

She said helplessly, “I’ll just go on stage and say a few words, and then come back, okay? I promise not to stay too long, and maybe I can even wait for you to have dinner together.”

Quan Shijin smiled slightly, “Okay, wait for me to come back and have dinner together.”

………………

Bai Yu has a baby face and always holds a lollipop in his mouth all day. When he doesn’t take action, no one knows how strong his fighting skills are.

This time back to school.

Wen Ruoci did not take him with her.

Mainly because she was worried that others would mistake Bai Yu for her boyfriend or something like that.

It will be very troublesome then.

If she explained that she was a bodyguard, probably few people would believe her.

She was a VIP and was seated in the VIP room.

Sitting on the sofa, I was bored and listened to the person in charge talking about this and that, when I suddenly heard a familiar voice, “Ruoci.”

She was holding the teacup and turned her head slightly, then she saw Pei Yan walking towards her.

He put down the cup, a hint of displeasure flashing across his brows.

She was originally worried about whether she would meet He Ci when she came to school, but it turned out that the person she met was not He Ci, but Pei Yan…

He narrowed his eyes and said in an unhappy tone, “What’s the matter?”

Pei Yan felt a little sad listening to her emotionless tone. She still disliked him so much.

“I came here specially to apologize to you.”

Wen Ruoci was stunned for three seconds, then smiled lazily, “You said you want to apologize, but that’s not necessary. I’m afraid my ears will get dirty.”

Pei Yan seemed very hurt, “Do you really hate me so much? I really want to make it up to you… and didn’t He Ci divorce you?”

Wen Ruoci looked at him incredulously. After a while, she raised her red lips and smiled, “You don’t think that I will like you if He Ci and I divorce, do you?”

Pei Yan lowered his eyes and frowned, “No, I don’t think so. I just simply want to make it up to you. I don’t mean anything else by saying this. I just simply think that since you and He Ci are divorced, you don’t have to worry about what he thinks anymore.”

Wen Ruoci looked at him, “Do you really want to make it up to me so much?”

Pei Yan nodded, “I hope you can give me this chance.”

Wen Ruoci didn’t say anything for a while.

The house was filled with the aroma of tea.

After a while, she said in a calm voice, “What if your compensation requires you to pay a heavy price?”

Pei Yan smiled, “Then I am willing to do it.”

At this time, the planner called her and said it was her turn to speak on stage.

She stood up and said, “If you really want to make amends, wait until I finish my speech on stage.”
