Volume One, Chapter 12: Qiao Nian’an’s Wallet Holds a Photograph of a Young Man

Without hesitation, Shen Niwu quickly downloaded a divorce agreement, printed it out, and handed it to Jiang Xingguang for his signature.

Jiang Xingguang saw that the agreement labeled him as the guilty party who would leave empty-handed, and he nearly spat blood.

"If you hadn’t caused such a scene, I might have been able to plead with the new CEO to spare your friend Qiao Nian’an from being fired and let her keep her job. But since you’re so heartless and ungrateful, don’t blame me for refusing to help!"

Qiao Nian’an was Shen Niwu’s closest friend, and Shen Niwu even gave her a monthly salary of twenty thousand.

Jiang Xingguang had once coveted Qiao Nian’an, but although she seemed aloof and cold, she was even colder and more ruthless underneath. She had taught him a harsh lesson, though he never dared speak of it publicly.

Shen Niwu snorted coldly, “Fine, if you dare offend Qiao Nian’an, then just wait to be blacklisted in the industry!”

The CEO who had acquired their company was a billionaire worth trillions.

He was also Qiao Nian’an’s college classmate.

Shen Niwu had seen a photo of this tycoon in Qiao Nian’an’s wallet.

Without Qiao Nian’an saying a word, it was clear their relationship was extraordinary.

Shen Niwu had come to the office today precisely to reveal this secret to Qiao Nian’an.

But unexpectedly, she caught someone in the act in the office.

Her husband was sitting in the boss’s chair, while Shen Xiaoshan straddled his lap, engaged in an unspeakable act.

She immediately erupted in fury.

“Fine! Take your things and leave right now! Our company can’t tolerate the two of you bigshots! Twenty thousand a month? I can hire five fresh college graduates with better value!” Jiang Xingguang sneered dismissively.

Meanwhile, Qiao Nian’an felt like walking on thin ice. She hadn’t even started working yet, and now she was being fired?

Howling inside, she knew she wouldn’t find a new job anytime soon.

She wasn’t paid twenty thousand for nothing—her workload and achievements surpassed everyone else’s.

If commissions were counted, the company would owe her over a hundred thousand each month.

Their company’s main business was overseas translation.

They translated popular books and movies into multiple foreign languages for sale abroad.

Besides translating, she also handled operations and business affairs.

Thanks to her packaging and promotion, each book became a hit overseas, bringing the company great profits.

Now she was about to be laid off, and it would be hard to find a seamless transition to a new job.

Moreover, losing her job meant her social insurance contributions would be cut off.

Just thinking about it gave her a headache.

But seeing her friend trampled on and bullied, she couldn’t care about her own work anymore.

She stood up to defend Shen Niwu, her face cold as she said to Jiang Xingguang, “What kind of man are you—a little black face living off a woman! If you hadn’t pestered Shen Niwu to start from scratch with you, would you have your current status? You’re getting cocky just because you have some money. I’d say death isn’t far off for you!”

Qiao Nian’an had long disliked this lecherous man.

She had warned Shen Niwu before, but Shen Niwu was blinded and didn’t believe her.

Now that Shen Niwu was being bullied, she had to stand united with her.

Moved by Qiao Nian’an’s support, Shen Niwu tearfully said, “Nian’an, our company has always treated you harshly. If you go elsewhere, you’ll only earn more.”

Qiao Nian’an replied, “You can’t be soft with people like him. Since he cheated and betrayed you, he should walk away empty-handed. I know some powerful lawyers who might be able to help. If you need…”

“I do, I really do!” Shen Niwu nodded firmly. “I must sue this little black face until he leaves with nothing!”

Qiao Nian’an nodded. These lawyers had once been the legal team for the Qiao family and had now opened their own reputable firm.
