Gu Jin looked at the chair that Ji Xiao had brought over from nowhere. She stood on it and easily got the first aid kit. She even rummaged through it and took out a tablet of stomach medicine.

"I found it. Hurry up and eat. After that, we'll go through the divorce procedures." Ji Xiao looked down at the time. There was still time.

Gu Jin lowered his gaze and sat on the bed motionlessly.

"I know my stomach. It won't get better after taking medicine."

Ji Xiao poured him a glass of hot water, took out two pills, and handed them to him. "Here, take them."

"Are you worried about my health? Or are you trying to get a divorce as soon as possible?"

Gu Jin took the cup of hot water and did not even look at the two pills that Ji Xiao had placed on her hand.

Of course I'm worried about your health!

Ji Xiao swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. "I'm... I'm getting a divorce. Can't we just end it as soon as possible?"

Gu Jin replied with a faint hum. He held the cup of water with both hands and leaned against the bed. His pale lips slowly spat out a sentence, "I won't eat it."

He was as stubborn as a child.

Gu Jin had always been arrogant in front of her, but Ji Xiao had never seen him like this.

"Who are you sulking at? You can't mess with your health no matter who you're going against." Ji Xiao paused, opened her palm, and stretched out the medicine in front of him. She said in a soft voice, "Good boy, take it."

Gu Jin frowned and pursed his thin lips tightly.

It seemed that it was useless no matter how hard she tried. This man did not intend to eat it at all.

Ji Xiao took out her phone and searched for Su Youqing 's number. "Okay, I see. My words don't work. I'll call Youqing, you have to listen to her."

After all, Su Youqing was his beloved. No matter what she said, she might not be able to compare with Su Youqing's soft voice.

"Ji Xiao!"

Gu Jin put down the cup in his hand and grabbed her hand that was holding the phone. His eyes were filled with suppressed anger.

Feeling the warmth of the man's palm, Ji Xiao felt her heart beating uncontrollably again, and her legs went limp.

"Is divorce more important than me to you? Are you in such a hurry to get a divorce for me or for yourself?"

His voice was a little hoarse, but every word hit her heart.

She knew what Gu Jin meant. Gu Jin was taking her words last night that she had someone she liked seriously.

Others might not know how much Ji Xiao loved Gu Jin, but how could he not know?

How could he say such cruel words.

After a long while, Ji Xiao opened her mouth with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

"Of course, it's for myself. I have a better choice and I have to chase him. Gu Jin, I don't have to have you."

When Gu Jin heard what Ji Xiao said, he felt as if his heart was being clutched by something.

"Who is that person? The one who took you to the bar that day? Or who else?"

His eyes were extremely cold.

"Yes, it's him."

At this time, she could only use Jiang Yi as a shield.

Gu Jin sneered, but his expression was unusually cold. "When did your taste become so bad, Ji Xiao? How can that man compare to me?"

"He loves me," Ji Xiao said with a smile, but her voice trembling. "That's why I'm willing to love him."

She knew the pain of not being able to get what she wanted better than anyone else. Therefore, it was a kind of redemption for her to have someone who loved her at all costs.

Gu Jin felt a chill run down his spine when he heard that.

He was silent, and he couldn't even find an excuse to refute her words. That man had won everything by saying that he loved her.

It was almost time for work, and they probably wouldn't be able to get a divorce today.

Putting the pills on the table, Ji Xiao grabbed her handbag and left the room.

...

She had been busy for the past few days. This was the first order she had received since the promotion, and it was quite high valuable. She had to take it seriously and put aside her worries for the time being.

After negotiating with them for a few days, they finally agreed to sign the contract today.

However, the place they agreed on was a little strange.

In the Dihao Entertainment Club.

Ji Xiao did not think too much about it. After all, most of the business deals were made at the table. She had seen a lot when she was in Gu's Group, but she had never been there in person.

Now, she had to do it herself.

The Dihao Entertainment Club was one of the best clubs in A City. It was only about three o'clock in the afternoon, but there were already many people inside.

"Hello, may I ask where Chen Qian booked the private room?"

Ji Xiao followed the waiter inside with her assistant.

The private room was set on the second floor. After turning a corner, the waiter respectfully pushed the door open and the two of them walked in.

The lights were dim, and there were about three or four people inside. Sitting in the middle with a round face, baldness of head, and a beer belly, that was Chen Qian. The other one was Zhou Yang, who was a little thin with gold-rimmed glasses. When they were negotiating the contract, she was the one who handed it over to Ji Xiao.

The other two were unfamiliar to her.

"Sorry, Mr. Chen, I'm late."

Ji Xiao smiled and found a sofa opposite them to sit down.

"Miss Ji, you're late. According to the rules, you have to drink three glasses of wine as punishment?"

In fact, it was still early for them to meet. With the sincere attitude of negotiating the contract, Ji Xiao and her assistant had already set off in advance, but they didn't expect Mr. Chen to arrive earlier.

No matter what, they were late.

Ji Xiao turned to look at her assistant.

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Chen. I don't know how to drink. Let my assistant do it for me."

The assistant quickly picked up the teacup and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, let me propose a toast to you!"

Chen Qian frowned in dissatisfaction.

Zhou Yang adjusted her glasses and said meaningfully, "Miss Ji, you are not sincere at all. The reason why Mr. Chen showed up in person is that he values your cooperation with him. However, based on your attitude..."

Originally, she brought an assistant who could drink with him because she wanted the assistant to drink the wine for her, but she didn't expect that she couldn't escape.

Ji Xiao quickly put on a smile and said, "Why are you saying like that? For the sake of Mr. Chen, I have to drink it, right?"

"Hahahaha, I like to cooperate with straightforward people!"

Chen Qian smiled and glanced sideways at the man next to him. The man immediately understood and filled three glasses for Ji Xiao.

Ji Xiao swallowed her saliva, and in Chen Qian's burning eyes, she forcefully drank three glasses of wine.

The alcohol was about the same as the one she had drunk with Jiang Yi last time. After three glasses, her throat was burning hot.

Ji Xiao choked and coughed.

"Well, Mr. Jordan, you're too modest!"

Ji Xiao nodded, took the draft contract from her assistant, and said with a smile.

"Well, Mr. Chen, our contract..."
