The next day.

Wang Yan finished running, and Gu Jia had already prepared breakfast.

Woke up Xu Ziyan, and the three ate breakfast together.

After sending the child to school, Wang Yan asked Gu Jia to bring all the documents, and then drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Toward Wang Yan being so decisive, Gu Jia was quite surprised; she didn't expect Wang Yan to take her to register the day after the divorce.

This orphan and widow wanted to remarry, although with her appearance and charm, wanting to find an ordinary person was easy, but she had to do it. But wanting to find an elite with good conditions was no different from dreaming.

To tell the truth, she had thought about just living with Wang Yan like this, and she also believed that Wang Yan definitely wouldn't be bad to her and the child. As for going out to mess around, having experienced a betrayal, she should have grown up a bit, and should have seen it clearly.

Xu Huanshan cheated, not to mention Wang Yan, a player who threw Xu Huanshan two miles away; she couldn't restrain Wang Yan.

Although she knew that for Wang Yan, a marriage certificate was basically useless. But the confirmation of the legal relationship still made her happy.

The reason Wang Yan registered with her was, on one hand, it was a pity not to marry Liu Sihui, and on the other hand, he wanted to experience it. Although living with Gu Jia without registering was the same, and it didn't delay him from doing anything, the sense of ritual was still quite important, at least it looked like it.

The Civil Affairs Bureau was still crowded, but fortunately, they went early and finished the procedures before the lunch break.

Looking at the red book in his hand, Wang Yan really didn't feel anything special.

He analyzed that eight out of ten it was because he was in the film and television world, and subjectively didn't agree, so there was no sense of responsibility? It might also be that he didn't have to bear moral constraints here, and could do whatever he wanted? Or maybe he didn't worry about food and clothing, and had no pressure?

Anyway, he had no waves, just like that.

"Let's go, find a place to eat, and then go to my company."

"Okay."

Received the marriage certificate, Gu Jia was happy enough. As for the wedding? She didn't even mention it; what else did she want?

The two ate casually and arrived at his company in the afternoon.

Clapped his hands at the subordinates who were working, letting them be quiet. Then Wang Yan introduced Gu Jia and let them recognize her.

After the introduction, without caring about the whispers of his subordinates, the two came to his office and let her sit on the sofa.

Wang Yan took out a few contracts from the desk behind him and handed them to Gu Jia: "Take a look, if there is no problem, sign it."

Gu Jia flipped through the contracts in her hand; these were what Wang Yan promised her, including the property rights of the two houses in Junyue Mansion and Tianyue Mansion, as well as some other cash and stock assets. Just the two houses were over 150 million, and the value was about 200 million.

She was stunned by Wang Yan's generosity.

"This is too much, I can't take it."

"Take it, I promised you, and will you leave me?"

Seeing her shake her head, Wang Yan continued: "Isn't that it? This thing isn't more useful than a marriage certificate?"

"Besides, both houses are mortgaged, and it's actually not as much as you think. But don't worry, they will be paid off as soon as possible."

"This is the guarantee I give you; take it at ease, sign it."

Gu Jia's faults were also a sea; however, Wang Yan didn't care much. Talking and talking, it was still money; he had plenty of that. Money for Wang Yan was really just a number; he didn't care how much it was. Smashing Gu Jia down at once was also using it in the right place.

Proficient in the necessary skills of a housewife, her conduct was also okay, her wrist was also there, her work was enough, and she didn't make as much trouble as those two women, Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin; Wang Yan was still quite satisfied with her.

As long as there is a little sincerity, other small faults are just like that. After all, he has to experience countless women, and in-depth contact with women of different experiences and different personalities, isn't this also a kind of training?

Seeing him say it firmly and with a tough attitude, Gu Jia didn't pretend and picked up the pen to sign.

Wang Yan was different from Xu Huanshan; he was too strong, and Gu Jia truly felt the feeling of being cared for on Wang Yan.

Seeing her finish signing and putting away the contract, Wang Yan said: "Alright, that's it."

"There are still things to handle here, so I won't care about you. This is the car key, you drive back."

"There are still quite a few daily necessities missing at home; if you have nothing to do, go shopping and choose."

"If you are bored by yourself, then wait until tomorrow when Ziyan is on holiday, and the three of us will go together."

Gu Jia nodded, said okay, kissed Wang Yan, and left.

After going out, she drove Wang Yan's A8, called Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, and made an appointment to drink coffee and chat for a while.

Having struggled for many years, it was not as good as what Wang Yan gave casually, coupled with her ambiguous and unspeakable feelings for Wang Yan. Her excited mood needed to be shared.

She wasn't for showing off anything, just purely sharing. Otherwise, it would be uncomfortable to hold it in, and it would be easy to get sick.

Having been a housewife for so many years, the previous friends and colleagues couldn't say that none were left, but basically, that was why she found the two of them.

Although she had a birthday before, Wang Yan had an unpleasantness with Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, but in Gu Jia's view, those were two different things.

People have weight in people's hearts; Zhong Xiaoqin was naturally heavier in Gu Jia's heart.

She and Zhong Xiaoqin had known each other for so many years and had experienced quite a few things, so there was still true emotion. With her understanding of Zhong Xiaoqin, hearing that she and Wang Yan were together, she would just say two sentences and that was it. Wang Yan and Zhong Xiaoqin had no intersection, so she would just mention it less. Although there was an impact, it definitely wouldn't be too much.

Wang Manni was just like that; she didn't care, and she knew that she must have had a leg or two with Wang Yan from the conflict last time. Besides, there was no deep emotion to begin with, just a plastic sister halfway, can get along, can't get along, just roll. But with Gu Jia's understanding of Wang Manni, she would most likely pretend that nothing had happened.

Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin were also convenient to skip work and fish; one came out to accompany clients, one came out to visit, and there were plenty of excuses.

The three gathered together in a coffee shop not far from Junyue Mansion that they often went to.

After each ordered something to drink, the waiter left, and Gu Jia opened her mouth: "I'm divorced."

"Ah" *x2, the two were surprised by Gu Jia's sudden words.

A few days ago, the thirtieth birthday was still very loving, and it was only a few days, and they divorced?

"What's going on?" Zhong Xiaoqin blurted out.

Wang Manni on the side also opened her mouth to echo: "Yes, Gu Jia, there was no sign at all before? This is too sudden."

Then Gu Jia told the two about the cause and effect.

"How can Xu Huanshan be like this, really... scum." After listening to the process Gu Jia said, Zhong Xiaoqin stood up for justice. She had known Xu Huanshan since Gu Jia fell in love, and she didn't expect him to be such a person for so many years.

Wang Manni wasn't familiar with Xu Huanshan, but seeing the loving appearance two days ago, and the behavior of cheating when turning around, she also thought it was shameful, nothing to say, just followed Zhong Xiaoqin and sprayed him.

So, the three of you and I started the Xu Huanshan criticism meeting, Gu Jia talked about her heart-moving process from beginning to end, and the other two were responsible for spraying.

Women are really ruthless when scolding people, and the saliva is flying all over the sky. Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, these two women, almost sent Xu Huanshan back to his mother's womb, and finally drank a cup of water to declare the end.

Then they talked about property division, and Gu Jia told them how it was divided.

"Gu Jia, what about Ziyan? What about Ziyan?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked.

"The child followed me."

Thinking of Gu Jia's life with the child, Zhong Xiaoqin's tears were about to fall: "Then what will you do in the future, Gu Jia."

Wang Manni also looked at Gu Jia with pity; they all knew how difficult the life of divorce with a child was.

Looking at the concerned eyes of the two, Gu Jia smiled: "You don't need to worry, life will only be better in the future."

The two were confused by Gu Jia's words. Can an orphan and widow live better? The divorce stimulation was too big, is she crazy?

Gu Jia was uncomfortable being looked at by their mentally retarded eyes, helplessly said: "Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, I'm very normal. Still remember Wang Yan?"

Wang Manni didn't need to say, that was definitely impressive, and looked at Gu Jia with some surprise.

Zhong Xiaoqin heard Wang Yan and remembered the unpleasantness a few days ago.

Frowning and asking: "Why did you register for marriage with him?"

She didn't use her brain when speaking, and after speaking, she thought that this sentence was a bit too much; Gu Jia wanted to marry whoever she wanted, it was Gu Jia living with people, not her Zhong Xiaoqin.

Hurriedly waved her hand, full of apologies and said: "Sorry, Gu Jia, I didn't mean that, I..."

Gu Jia knew she was unintentional, so she didn't let her say more: "No, I know what you mean. But he is very good to me and Ziyan, and Ziyan likes him very much."

Then she took out the gift agreement she had just signed from her bag and put it in front of the two.

The two flipped through the contract again.

After flipping through it, they didn't speak.

Wang Manni looked at Gu Jia with envy, jealousy, and hatred, regretting that she wanted to give herself two big slaps, then go out, turn right, walk straight, and dive into the Huangpu River.

Zhong Xiaoqin didn't chatter anymore; what is more moving than two hundred million? Why say so many useless things?

Seeing the reaction of the two, Gu Jia was satisfied; she had been holding it for a long time, and this time it was really relaxed.

Didn't interrupt them, leisurely drinking coffee.

Hmm, today's coffee is especially sweet, beautiful.

Wang Yan handled some company affairs after Gu Jia left and delineated a few transactions.

After finishing, he sat in the chair and thought about the next things.

Xu Huanshan and Gu Jia had divorced, but he and Lin Youyou hadn't married yet, so they weren't really together.

This is actually easy to handle; wait for the day Xu Huanshan knows that Gu Jia and Wang Yan have registered for marriage, he estimates that he will directly marry Lin Youyou without saying a word. Or by virtue of Lin Youyou's performance, fooling Xu Huanshan into agreeing to marry her.

I think it will be completed in a while.

What he has to consider is how to fix the four bastards who scolded him for having no upbringing.

His Old Wang is so wronged; he didn't want to bother with them, but people came up to step on him.

It's not that he is pretending; isn't it right not to give a good face? Who do I know among you? And I'm not your dad, why bother with that habit?

Being broken and then angry, saying he has no upbringing, and four people collectively certified it.

Then it can't blame his Wang the man; if I don't make them comfortable, I will write my Wang character upside down.

Chen Yu is a front-line reporter and loves taking pictures. After thinking about it, he had an idea in his heart.

Called the two things under his command, let them find Chen Yu's phone contact information, and also explained some things for them to handle.

Then called his subordinates and let them acquire a new media company with complete procedures and perfect structure. This thing has to take a long time to set up a team, so it's not as cost-effective as acquiring one.

Not long after, Wang Yan's phone received a message, which was Chen Yu's contact information.

Directly called over.

Chen Yu had been having bad luck recently, work was not going well, marriage was not going well, and everything he did was not working.

The phone vibration attracted him, who was working seriously. Seeing it was a strange number, he ignored it and hung up directly. Which knew that just after hanging up, another call came in, still the number just now.

Recently irritable, somewhat impatient: "Hello, who is it?"

Wang Yan didn't care; he had been scolded for selling houses, so this really didn't count as a thing: "Hello, is this Chen Yu?"

"It's me, who are you? Anything? If nothing, I'm hanging up."

The continuous questioning showed that the mood was indeed extremely poor, Wang Yan said: "I am doing finance, recently want to do self-media, have seen the news of the mother and three children you sent. Very interested in you, want to talk to you."

Chen Yu had been having bad luck recently; work wasn't going well, marriage wasn't going well, and he couldn't do anything right.

His phone vibrating attracted him as he was working seriously. Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, he ignored it and hung up directly. Who knew that just after hanging up, another call came in immediately, still the same number.

Recently, he had been irritable and a bit impatient: "Hello, who is this?"

Wang Yan didn't mind; he had been scolded like a dog when calling to sell houses, so this really wasn't a big deal: "Hello, may I ask if this is Chen Yu?"

"It's me, who are you? Is something the matter? If not, I'm hanging up."

The rapid-fire questions showed his mood was indeed extremely poor. Wang Yan said: "I work in finance and recently want to do self-media. I've seen the news you posted about the mother and two children. I'm very interested in you and want to have a chat with you."

"I wonder if you have time?"

Chen Yu thought for a moment; having a chat wouldn't be a loss, and it might not necessarily not be an opportunity.

"We can chat. Seven o'clock tonight, Eternal Cafe."

"Alright, see you then." Wang Yan hung up the phone.

Wang Yan's plan was very simple: cut off Zhong Xiaoqin's retreat first. If Zhong Xiaoyang and their family were clean, law-abiding good citizens, then so be it. If not, then he would take down him and the background he relied on. As for Zhong Xiaoqin, let her fend for herself and see if her fate is tough enough.

Wang Yan hadn't had contact with Chen Yu, but he had some understanding through watching the TV series before.

It wasn't that Chen Yu didn't want to change, but that he carried too much. His old mother at home, his sensible younger brother, his immature wife, and the mortgage and car loans—these things and these people pressed him tightly.

Since his father abandoned his wife and children, the three of them had depended on each other for survival; one can imagine how difficult that was. Of course, he wasn't sympathizing with him; there are tons of people who need to be sympathized with, and there is no most miserable, only more miserable.

He just wanted stability—striving to learn, striving to work, striving to live—he just wanted stability. He didn't dare to slam the table and scold his boss, didn't dare to lose his job easily, didn't dare to try new things easily, and didn't dare to pursue his dreams; this is understandable.

According to normal logic, Chen Yu is in his thirties, divorced, not proactive, not enterprising, not confident, has no future, and no money; it would be very difficult for him to find a partner.

What Wang Yan wanted to do was give him the courage to change all this, lift him up, arouse his potential desires, and let him see this rolling red dust. Believe that by then, the chaotic flowers would dazzle the eyes. Zhong Xiaoqin? You can just get lost.

Sitting in the company for an afternoon, he handled some things. Seeing that the time was almost up, he sent a message to Gu Jia, telling her he would be back later. After all, it was the first day of getting the certificate, so it wouldn't be good to be too bad.

Wang Yan went out and hailed a taxi, went to the agreed place, and told the driver to drive according to the address.

Taxi drivers are all like that; when there's nothing to do, they like to chat, after all, just driving is really boring.

Wang Yan chatted with the driver while his eyes kept looking out the window. The last time he came here was in the 1990s of "Infernal Affairs"; twenty years had passed, and the changes in Hong Kong were okay, after all, it was no longer one of the Four Little Dragons. However, he didn't have too many feelings; "Infernal Affairs" didn't have anything that could make him nostalgic.

Arriving at the place, he opened a suite in the hotel. After putting his things away, Wang Yan walked to the balcony and made a call: "Hello, Zhao Jingyu?"

"I think we can have a chat about Liang Zhengxian."

"Alright, see you in a bit."

Hanging up the phone, he lay on the chair and looked at the scenery for a while. Estimating that the time was about right, Wang Yan set off for the place he had agreed upon with Zhao Jingyu.

The distance wasn't far; after all, the hotel was near Zhao Jingyu's home. The agreed place was also nearby, a teahouse. Wang Yan arrived first and ordered a pot of tea, drinking it slowly by himself.

After a while, Zhao Jingyu walked in gracefully on time and sat opposite him.

Wang Yan looked her up and down. To say this woman's appearance didn't quite fit his aesthetic, but she was wearing high heels and beautiful clothes, very feminine, and had a bit of charm...

Wang Yan reached out his hand to her and said: "Hello, Wang Yan."

"Zhao Jingyu."

The two shook hands, and Wang Yan took the opportunity to feel her up a bit; it was actually not bad, quite tender.

"What do you want to talk to me about Liang Zhengxian?"

Zhao Jingyu didn't ask brainless questions like "Who are you?" or "How did you find me?" Those were boring questions. After all, if someone could find her directly and mention Liang Zhengxian, they must have investigated clearly and thoroughly. As for who Wang Yan was? Did she even need to think? It must be because Liang Zhengxian was playing around everywhere and caused trouble.

She asked straightforwardly, and Wang Yan naturally got straight to the point: "I know you've been with him for several years, and he doesn't care about you while he's flirting everywhere. Do you want to break away from Liang Zhengxian?"

Zhao Jingyu smiled: "Why should I break away from him? What good would that do me? Don't I live well now? If that's all you have to say, let's not waste each other's time."
