How extravagant the rich are.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right? And she’ll probably wear this dress just once…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty million…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it was that expensive—even if it hadn’t been claimed, she couldn’t afford it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci shook her head and turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back home, Chu Zilian called to say he wanted to take her out for a big dinner tomorrow night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning she would attend the banquet, he arrived the next afternoon in a flurry, determined to style her himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci’s taste was excellent—the gown suited her well, and with Chu Zilian’s meticulously crafted makeup, her gentle, poised, and radiant beauty was perfectly highlighted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That evening, Yu Moxun came to pick her up; upon seeing Rong Ci, he was utterly stunned: “You’re stunning. Perfect for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the car, Yu Moxun said, “So, you’re officially returning to the company tomorrow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good. By the way, Lin Wu,” he added, realizing she didn’t know who that was, “the algorithm genius I told you about—she’s officially joining tomorrow. I’ll introduce you two—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci’s expression froze: “Lin Wu? You mean the one named Lin Wu? The ‘wu’ as in ‘desolate’? The one who just returned from Country A recently?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun nodded, surprised: “Yes. Do you know her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s my half-sister.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew a little about Rong Ci’s family background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected such a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci’s gaze turned cold as she added: “She’s also Feng Tingshen’s mistress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car screeched to a sudden stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun stared wide-eyed: “You—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci shook her head: “I’m fine.” Her face was calm. “But whether you call it abuse of power or not—I won’t allow her to join our company.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun paused, then agreed without hesitation: “Understood. I support your decision.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci’s chest warmed: “Thank you.” She paused, then added: “But that means you’re losing a genius.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun shook his head and smiled, glancing at her: “She’s undoubtedly an algorithm genius—but compared to you, she’s worthless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke those final words with solemn gravity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci blinked, thinking he was exaggerating; Yu Moxun knew what she was thinking and chuckled: “Honest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci hadn’t expected him to say that. She thought for a moment and asked: “Her interview was weeks ago—why hasn’t she joined yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun shook his head: “She said she had some personal matters to handle. I didn’t press for details.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than ten minutes later, they arrived at their destination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Rong Ci was lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun: “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just don’t understand why she wants to join our company.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our company is doing well, but there are far better firms in the country; given her background and credentials, she had countless options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True, she’s a major shareholder—but due to special circumstances, her identity is not public. Lin Wu shouldn’t even know her connection to our company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Lin Wu couldn’t be here because of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun rubbed his chin, then suddenly smiled: “During our chat, she mentioned our company’s programming language—she said she was very interested in CUAP.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CUAP was designed and developed by Rong Ci’s team when she was seventeen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, many thought it was ordinary—but in reality, it became our company’s greatest competitive advantage. Over the past few years, the industry has come to recognize its brilliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Numerous professional teams have tried to reverse-engineer it, but none have cracked it. Today, this programming language has become an unreachable benchmark in the field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without doubt, Lin Wu came for CUAP.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come to think of it, over the past two or three years, many of our top talents joined because of CUAP.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Ci hadn’t realized it was that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Moxun looked at her, ruffled her hair, and smiled: “So when I say she’s worthless in your presence, I’m not exaggerating.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he, her own senior who knew her best, not understand just how brilliant she was in this field?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, before Rong Ci appeared, he himself was once hailed as a genius by everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>",1072,"2026-06-20T23:57:54.242Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","434362eb646ea0d1ff6dbbdac8dbf9f97df6e79c9de2a5cdd2eb5a8cccb99186","mr-feng-your-wife-has-wanted-a-divorce-for-a-lon-chapter-22","mr-feng-your-wife-has-wanted-a-divorce-for-a-lon-chapter-20",611,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmr-feng-your-wife-has-wanted-a-divorce-for-a-lon-cover.jpg"]
