"I promise you, I won't bother you again!" Jiang Yi said.
"I hope you keep your word." Dongfang Mei said, then stood up and walked towards the door of the private room.
"Wait..." Jiang Yi called out.
Ye Yanran stopped, "What else do you want to say?"
"My uncle is not a good person. You should distance yourself from him as soon as possible, or you will regret it." Jiang Yi continued, "Even with my uncle helping you in secret, you won't be able to deal with Tiansheng Group. By doing this, you are only pushing yourself to a dead end. We know each other, and I'm kindly reminding you, hoping you'll listen."
"Jiang Yi, you don't need to pretend to be a good person in front of me. You just want me to soften my heart and let Tiansheng Group and the Dongfang family off!"
"I'll tell you the truth today, I will absolutely not let Tiansheng Group and the Dongfang family off. It's either you die or I die!" After saying that, Ye Yanran turned and left the private room.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath. He kindly advised Ye Yanran, but she didn't appreciate it at all. Everything had changed now. Time had made people and things different. The current Ye Yanran was no longer the Ye Yanran of the past. In Ye Yanran's heart, only hatred remained, and for this unwarranted hatred, she chose to resort to any means.
Jiang Yi did not linger, he got up and left the private room. As soon as he reached the door of the private room, Changsun Hao ran over angrily, saying in a stern voice, "Jiang Yi, I'm not done with you over this."
Jiang Yi didn't want to deal with Changsun Hao. He had already shown leniency to Changsun Hao out of consideration for Changsun Xiong. He didn't expect Changsun Hao to still be so oblivious to his position. If that was the case, he didn't need to be lenient anymore. If Changsun Hao wanted to court death, he would oblige him.
"Jiang Yi, we'll see!" Changsun Hao issued a threat.
"Another one courting death!" Jiang Yi sneered.
"Don't be arrogant. I have plenty of ways to deal with you. Sooner or later, I will make you kneel and beg me," Changsun Hao said angrily.
"You are overestimating yourself," Jiang Yi said.
"It's you who is overestimating yourself..." Changsun Hao said.
Jiang Yi didn't want to get into a verbal dispute with a minor character like Changsun Hao. He completely ignored Changsun Hao's presence and turned to enter the supermarket with Dongfang Mei.
Seeing Jiang Yi leave, Changsun Hao snorted dismissively. "Miss Ye, don't worry, if Jiang Yi dares to bother you again in the future, I will not let him off. I have already warned him just now. If he comes to trouble you again, just tell me!" Changsun Hao said with a smug expression, "My father is the chairman of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. It's very easy for me to deal with Jiang Yi. With just one word from me, Jiang Yi will never be able to turn his life around."
In reality, Changsun Hao did not have such great capabilities; he was just boasting and showing off in front of Ye Yanran. In short, Changsun Hao just wanted Ye Yanran to look at him with admiration.
"Thank you!" Ye Yanran looked at Changsun Hao and said, "Although you can't help me, I still want to thank you."
"How can I not help you? I am the son of the chairman of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce," Changsun Hao quickly said.
"That's right, you are indeed the son of the chairman of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, but you have no prestige or power in the business world. How can you help me?" Ye Yanran asked.
"This is too easy!" Changsun Hao's face showed a hint of pride, and he said, "My father asked me to return to China and work in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, intending to train me and then have me succeed him as the new chairman."
"When I get back later, I'll have them give me a director position. Once I completely control the entire Beijing Chamber of Commerce, the Beijing business world will be under my command, and dealing with Jiang Yi will be as easy as pie."
"Alright, then I'll wait for your good news!" Ye Yanran said, then turned to leave.
"Are you leaving already?" Changsun Hao said with reluctance.
Hearing this, Ye Yanran stopped and looked back at Changsun Hao, saying, "I will agree to date you when you have enough strength to help me. I don't want a future husband who is useless." After saying that, Ye Yanran drove away.
Changsun Hao stood in place, watching Dongfang Mei leave. Changsun Hao had been completely infatuated with Ye Yanran. Only when Ye Yanran's car disappeared at the end of the street did Changsun Hao finally retract his gaze.
"Miss Ye, don't worry, I will definitely become the next chairman of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. When I possess absolute power, you will agree to date me!" Changsun Hao muttered to himself. Changsun Hao's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
At this moment, Jiang Yi was buying ingredients at the supermarket with Dongfang Mei. Dongfang Mei followed behind, her gaze at Jiang Yi complex.
"Ask whatever you want to ask!" Jiang Yi looked at Dongfang Mei.
"What did you and Ye Yanran talk about just now?" Dongfang Mei continued, "I didn't want to ask, but you told me to ask..."
"Ye Yanran declared war on me!" Jiang Yi said.
"Anything else?" Dongfang Mei asked.
"Ye Yanran warned me not to have any ideas about Xiao Bei." Jiang Yi said, then smiled at Dongfang Mei, "You are my wife, and I will not hide anything from you. What I just said is all the truth, not a single word is a lie. Since we are married, we should trust each other, don't you think?"
"Of course!" Dongfang Mei looked at Jiang Yi with tenderness, a happy smile on her face.
"There's something I've never understood. A man as good as you, why did Ye Yanran choose to divorce you?" Dongfang Mei said.
"Ye Yanran divorced me because, in their eyes, I was a useless person who just ate and waited for death in their Ye family! So Ye Yanran chose to divorce this useless person," Jiang Yi said with a smile. Although he had divorced Ye Yanran a long time ago, Jiang Yi still remembered the events of that time very clearly.
"Ye Yanran has become like this, it must be because she regrets it and wants to remarry you, but you didn't accept her, so she resents you."
"The deeper the love, the deeper the hatred. I am also a woman, and I can imagine how much Ye Yanran hates you!" Dongfang Mei said.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath. "The past is in the past, I don't want to mention it again!" Jiang Yi said.
"You don't want to mention it, but someone wants to!" Dongfang Mei said, "Your uncle's methods are very vicious, and he is also a very calculating person. He is using Ye Yanran to deal with you, intending to exploit your past relationship."
"If you are soft-hearted towards Ye Yanran, you will definitely fall into your uncle's hands." Jiang Yi knew that Dongfang Mei was not wrong this time. His situation was extremely dangerous, and a slight mistake could lead to eternal damnation.
