[Mind Reading + Drama + Family's Favorite + Wealthy Family + Entertainment Circle]

ji Fei's soul was mistakenly hooked, and she transmigrated into the body of a resentful wife about to be divorced from a wealthy family.

[Oh my! After the divorce, I'll be rich, beautiful, and single. Who needs a husband? What? I was framed... Divorce! Quick, divorce! If they discover the truth, I won't be able to escape!]

Mr. Qin, about to sign the divorce papers: ???

Soon after, the company's trusted executive secretary is taken away by the police.

With the divorce attempt failing, ji Fei can only continue being the wealthy family's wife, fortunately with a drama-watching system to keep her company.

[What? The orphan my sister-in-law wants to adopt is her husband's ex-girlfriend's child? My brother-in-law is trying to mooch off the family!]

The sister-in-law, who was being pressured to adopt due to infertility: !!!

That night, the sister-in-law kicks out the ungrateful family.

[Shocking! The younger brother-in-law mistook someone for his childhood sweetheart, breaking his true love's heart. When he discovers the truth, won't he have to grovel for forgiveness?]

The younger brother-in-law, who was defending the innocent-looking girl and criticizing his fiancée: What!

A few days later, the younger brother-in-law kicks out the innocent-looking girl knocking on his door at midnight and smoothly kneels before his fiancée's door.

[How wretched! The younger sister-in-law is so blinded by love, about to elope with an arrogant, sleazy man behind the family's back. She doesn't even know that the meal was just takeout re-plated by that scumbag?!]

The younger sister-in-law, who was describing how her boyfriend cooked a meal for her, making her feel true love, and hoping the family would accept her delinquent boyfriend: ...

After returning to school, the younger sister-in-law's head clears up, and she dumps the meal box on the scumbag's face.

[I've finished all the drama around me, time to check out others' drama.]

The entire Qin family transforms into drama-hungry spectators: Wait, what drama? Take us with you to watch!!!

Life has three joys: watching drama, gossiping, and joining in the excitement!!

"Sign here. After the divorce, you won't face any legal repercussions. I'll give you another 200 million, plus I'll separate your studio and gift it to you, along with that apartment downtown..." A deep, attractive voice tinged with coldness rang out.

Ji Fei couldn't help but cover her mouth to stifle a laugh. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes sparkled, one filled with the digits 200,00 and the other with 0,000!

She lowered her head to carefully examine the divorce agreement, counting the zeros.

Sitting across the desk was a tall man with refined, noble features and obsidian eyes that gleamed coldly. He observed Ji Fei as she bowed her head, covered her mouth, and trembled.

His heart grew colder.

If he had known it would come to this, Qin Xian wouldn't have tolerated it for so long.

Ji Fei was both pitiful and detestable. Her parents had been lifelong friends of the Qin Family but passed away before she came of age. Due to their dying wish, the Qin Family took in Ji Fei, only for her to betray their kindness by scheming to become his wife.

Afterwards, she couldn't live peacefully, stalking him repeatedly and stirring up trouble out of thin air, turning his life into chaos.

Now she had even stolen company secrets and given them to a rival firm, causing them to lose a major project and incurring the wrath of the entire company.

Even if only to appease the Board of Directors, he had to divorce her now.

"I've already been more than fair to you. I hope you know when to quit."

If not for the sake of her deceased parents, Qin Xian wouldn't have left her any way out.

He had expected Ji Fei to threaten suicide and refuse the divorce, but to his surprise, she picked up the pen with a trembling hand.

Qin Xian let out a small sigh of relief when he saw this. It seemed Ji Fei knew she had gone too far this time and wasn't going to resist anymore.

Finally, they could get divorced.

[Oh ho! Finally, we can get divorced!]

Qin Xian: ?

Was that Ji Fei's voice?

Qin Xian had rarely heard Ji Fei's voice so jubilant and excited. For a moment, he couldn't be sure, so he looked up at her, only to see Ji Fei's face contorted as she prepared to sign.

Was that expression one of anger or... joy?

Wait, Ji Fei hadn't opened her mouth to speak.

[Great, 200 million! 200 million! How many houses could I buy with that? How many cute puppies could I raise? As expected of my ex-husband, so generous!]

Qin Xian's handsome, deep-set brows twitched.

He was certain Ji Fei hadn't spoken, but he had definitely heard her voice.

What was going on?

Qin Xian was always cautious and composed. He glanced at Secretary Jin beside him.

Secretary Jin was staring intently at the divorce agreement under Ji Fei's hand.

When she noticed his gaze, Secretary Jin immediately put on a look of 'sympathy,' as if lamenting that things had come to this point.

Qin Xian had no time to ponder Secretary Jin's unusual expression. The key point was that Secretary Jin couldn't hear those voices!

"Miss Ji, you've really caused big trouble for Mr. Qin this time. I hope after you leave, you can start a new life properly and not... sigh!" Secretary Jin forced down the corners of her mouth, offering heartfelt advice while inwardly counting down, waiting for Ji Fei to start making a scene.

After all, this stupid Ji Fei would explode at the slightest provocation. Once she started causing trouble, that generous compensation might be withdrawn, leaving her with nothing.

Secretary Jin felt that Ji Fei didn't deserve even a shred of kind treatment from such a good man as Qin Xian.

However, Ji Fei just glanced up at her, then signed her name at lightning speed as if rushing to be reborn.

[So annoying. Even though I took the blame, I can get divorced smoothly and receive such a big compensation. I won't bother settling scores with the real culprit.]

Qin Xian froze as he took the divorce agreement Ji Fei tossed over. A storm raged in the depths of his eyes.

What? Took the blame? Real culprit?!

Qin Xian hadn't yet recovered from the shock of suddenly hearing those voices when he was struck by this new information.

Wasn't it that Ji Fei, dissatisfied with his coldness towards her, deliberately stirred up trouble to get his attention, resulting in disaster?

Everyone had seen that during that period, only she had entered the CEO's Office.

Someone had even photographed her meeting privately with the vice president of a rival company.

The evidence seemed conclusive.

Although she had initially denied it when confronted, screaming and throwing a fit, in the end...

In the end, it was as if she had shouted in anger: Since you don't believe me, just assume it was me then, what can you do to me!

He thought Ji Fei had been caught and was furious from embarrassment.

Now it seemed there was an element of giving up in despair and acting out of spite.

"Mr. Qin, it's time to sign." Beside him, Secretary Jin grew anxious as Qin Xian held the pen without moving. Her usually calm and gentle voice became slightly strained.

Hearing her voice, Qin Xian suddenly felt that Secretary Jin seemed to be overstepping her bounds.

Recalling the earlier 'real culprit,' he couldn't help but feel some misgivings.

Secretary Jin was his college classmate. They had known each other for many years, and he knew her well and trusted her completely. How could she possibly betray the company by doing something like this?

By now, Secretary Jin was impatiently handing him the pen.

She knew that although Qin Xian appeared cold, he actually had a strong sense of responsibility and was especially protective of his family. He had a soft heart, otherwise he wouldn't have been entangled with this stupid woman Ji Fei for so long.

Previously, several near-divorces had fallen through due to Ji Fei's tactics of crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide. Now that they had finally gotten Ji Fei to sign, surely there couldn't be a problem on Qin Xian's side.

[Tsk tsk tsk, she can't wait, huh? I bet this Secretary Jin is feeling guilty too, afraid all her efforts will be wasted.]

Qin Xian's eyes changed.

With a twist of his wrist holding the pen, his long fingers pressed the black fountain pen onto the desk.

This action startled both Ji Fei and Secretary Jin.

They saw Qin Xian's deep, dark eyes now fixed on Ji Fei, who hadn't had time to hide her expression of watching the drama unfold.

"I'll ask you one last time, did you really do this?"

He had always been cautious. If what he heard was true, not only would an innocent person have been wronged, but the company might be left with an immeasurable hidden danger. So he had to verify.

Secretary Jin's face instantly became unnatural, though she didn't panic. After all, Ji Fei couldn't prove her innocence.

Ji Fei felt uneasy under Qin Xian's intense gaze.

[What does he mean, asking this now? Is he having second thoughts about giving me the 200 million?! He can't be regretting it, right? Can't you sign first and then ask questions?!]

Qin Xian's heart skipped a beat, but he just stared straight at Ji Fei, as if determined to get an answer.

Ji Fei's eyes darted around as she couldn't help but complain inwardly.

[Of course I didn't do it. It's not my fault everyone's blind!]

[Clearly Secretary Jin also went in and out of the office after me, but those people in the CEO's Office Staff automatically ignored that. When asked about suspicious individuals entering and exiting, they didn't even need to check the security footage before dragging me out as a scapegoat.]

[This is what you call a subconscious blind spot.]

Qin Xian was suddenly shocked!

It wasn't just Ji Fei who had entered and exited his office back then?!

At the time, with both witness testimony and physical evidence pointing to Ji Fei, they had pushed her out as the culprit without even verifying the security footage!

He had also subconsciously believed Ji Fei was the type of person who would do such a reckless thing, so...

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Ji Fei say coldly, "I have nothing to say. Hurry up and sign."

Qin Xian's expression gradually turned cold. He didn't understand why Ji Fei wouldn't speak up when she knew the truth.

Could it be that she was afraid he wouldn't believe her?

Thinking of this, Qin Xian abruptly stood up.

Secretary Jin looked at Qin Xian in surprise, only to see him cast a glance her way.

That scrutinizing look made Secretary Jin's heart tremble.

Before Secretary Jin could react, Qin Xian strode towards the door with his long legs.

Passing by the confused Ji Fei, he said in a deep voice, "Come with me!"

"Huh... what for?" Ji Fei was completely bewildered.

They saw Qin Xian open the door and say to the busy assistants outside, "Retrieve the security footage from the evening of the 11th! My wife isn't quite convinced. Let her see if she was really the only one who went in and out that night!"

Secretary Jin, who had followed closely behind, heard this and her face changed drastically. "Mr. Qin!"

Ji Fei: ??

[This is so unfair! When did I say I wasn't convinced? It's written all over my face that I'm totally convinced!]

The employees of Qin Corporation had long harbored resentment towards Ji Fei's antics, especially those in the CEO's Office Staff.

Demanding surveillance footage was essentially pointing a finger at them, accusing them of lying about her, wasn't it? They had all witnessed it with their own eyes; who would dare to speak ill of the CEO's wife otherwise?

However, with a single command from Qin Xian, the surveillance footage was swiftly displayed on the large screen.

At increased playback speed, they clearly saw Ji Fei's figure enter and stay for half an hour, apparently not finding who she was looking for, then exit with a gloomy expression.

Everyone present couldn't help but sneer inwardly, thinking Ji Fei was stubborn and wouldn't give up until she hit a dead end. Now, let's see how she could still deny it.

Only Secretary Jin's forehead was beaded with sweat.

Until her own figure appeared on the surveillance footage.

Secretary Jin's pupils contracted, and she carefully glanced at Qin Xian.

Among those who had been glaring at Ji Fei, some were stunned upon seeing that scene, while others remained unresponsive.

The video stopped playing.

Qin Xian's face was almost covered with a layer of frost.

It was true after all!

Qin Xian turned to those who had confidently claimed that only Ji Fei had entered and exited his office, and coldly questioned, "Only my wife?"

However, these people hadn't yet fully processed the situation.

A senior assistant spoke up directly: "Mr. Qin, isn't there no problem? Only your wife..."

Others nodded in agreement.

[This is what you call having two eyes under your eyebrows, only good for blinking and not for seeing.]

Hearing Ji Fei's sarcastic remark, Qin Xian's expression worsened.

Suddenly, a male voice said: "Strictly speaking, two people went in and out. One was Mrs. Qin, and the other was... Secretary Jin!"

[There's actually one person who isn't blind!]

Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw a young man standing at the back. He was a new assistant who had been promoted recently.

Qin Xian, with his excellent memory, remembered that when Ji Fei was initially accused, this person had been out on business and wasn't present.

At this moment, the others seemed to finally catch on, but upon further thought, they found it laughable.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Secretary Jin frequently goes in and out of the office."

"You're new here and don't understand. Secretary Jin is Mr. Qin's right-hand person!"

"Are you suggesting that Secretary Jin would betray the company?"

Their tone was so exaggerated, as if this idea was utterly preposterous.

Qin Xian suddenly let out a cold snort, and the scene instantly fell silent.

Ji Fei, however, felt like laughing. [If they knew the truth, their expressions would definitely be hilarious.]

Ji Fei curiously looked at Secretary Jin, who was unconditionally trusted by everyone.

Secretary Jin, whose real name was Jin Yue, had a neat high ponytail, but her slightly curled hair strands seemed meticulously designed to appear casually elegant. Her professional suit and pencil skirt accentuated her figure's advantages to the fullest. Although she wore light makeup, it was so exquisite that not a single flaw could be found.

However, her expression at this moment was extremely unnatural.

[It's not their fault though. After all, their attitudes towards Secretary Jin and me completely follow Qin Xian's template.]

Qin Xian's heart skipped a beat.

Indeed, it was his fault!

"Does Secretary Jin have anything to confess?"

"Mr. Qin, are you suspecting me?" Although nervous, Secretary Jin quickly regained her composure and spoke in a tone of disbelief.

"I did go in, but Mr. Qin, don't you remember? Every night, I go to your office to prepare for the next day's meetings."

[So it was even more convenient to strike when I was alone in there. It seems this was planned for a long time. Impressive!]

[But... after listening to all this, do they all have to work overtime at night? I didn't expect Qin Xian to be such a capitalist exploiting his employees. After the divorce, I should send him a copy of the labor law!]

So after listening to all that, this is what you're focused on?! This is about your innocence!

And... our employees get triple pay for overtime!

Qin Xian's train of thought was almost derailed by Ji Fei's comments. He quickly gathered his thoughts.

"Anyone who entered and exited should be investigated. No exceptions!"

Secretary Jin immediately put on a hurt and wronged expression. She truly hadn't expected Qin Xian to suddenly treat her the same as everyone else. That stupid woman had already admitted it!

Was her position in Qin Xian's heart really on par with this woman? She had been by his side for ten years, handling big and small matters without a single mistake.

The other assistants also showed displeasure, probably thinking the CEO was being overly rigorous.

Secretary Jin versus Ji Fei, how could anyone think Ji Fei wouldn't be the one to make a mistake?!

Treating Secretary Jin like this, aren't they afraid of disheartening a trusted confidant?

Moreover, although the CEO didn't seem to notice, they could all see it.

Actually, Secretary Jin had always secretly loved the CEO, and her devotion to Mr. Qin was absolute. Even though she could have competed with Ji Fei, she endured Ji Fei's bullying without fighting back. How could she possibly sabotage Qin Corporation?

Just as the atmosphere became tense, a sneer came from the doorway.

Ji Fei looked over curiously.

Several people walked in with an imposing aura.

The CEO's Office Staff all stepped back, making room.

Based on her memory, Ji Fei recognized the balding man leading the group as Director Tang from the Board of Directors.

The one who had just sneered was a young man with dyed yellow hair who had jumped out from behind Director Tang.

He was Director Tang's son, Tang Jun.

He looked like a typical second-generation rich kid who fooled around in the company without doing any real work.

At this moment, Tang Jun walked directly to Secretary Jin's side and gave Qin Xian an unfriendly look.

"Qin Xian, have you lost your mind? We agreed at the Board of Directors meeting that you'd divorce this troublemaker, but what are you doing now?"

"Is there still any question about that incident that's worth you making such a fuss and checking surveillance footage? And what's even more ridiculous is that I just heard you're suspecting your loyal Secretary Jin and want her to be investigated too? Have you gone crazy?"

Director Tang made a half-hearted attempt to chide Tang Jun.

"How dare you speak to Mr. Qin like that! Mr. Qin's thoroughness is a virtue. It's not that he suspects Secretary Jin; I think it's probably because his wife refuses to admit guilt that we're having this scene."

Tang Jun immediately glared fiercely at Ji Fei.

"You woman, even at a time like this, you're still trying to drag others down with you. It's simply..."

Before Tang Jun could finish his insult, Qin Xian stepped forward, his face stern, shielding Ji Fei. He was about to speak when—

[Which sewer cover was stolen to let this thing out?]

Qin Xian's words got stuck in his throat.

[Tang Jun, is it? How dare you talk back to the big boss of the corporation? Let me see what gives you the guts to be so arrogant!]

The corporation's · Qin Xian · big boss was taken aback.

See what?

[Oh, I see. Director Tang has the highest position on the Board of Directors and is somewhat at odds with Qin Xian. If it weren't for Tang Jun being so useless and Qin Xian being so excellent, when Qin's Father stepped down, Director Tang would have really considered pushing his own son to take over. No wonder Tang Jun can't quite figure out his place in front of Qin Xian.]

Qin Xian was truly shocked this time.

Ji Fei had previously known nothing about the relationships within their corporation, yet she suddenly...

And it was something she just 'saw' now?

Moreover, earlier, she shouldn't have known that Secretary Jin had entered the office after her...

Indeed, she must have some kind of 'condition', right?

[Ah! Oh my god, ahhh!]

Qin Xian was startled by Ji Fei's sudden scream. While one part of his mind wondered 'what else has she seen?', he half-heartedly listened to Tang Jun's defense of Secretary Jin.

[No wonder he's so against me and protective of Secretary Jin.]

[So this Tang Jun is Secretary Jin's devoted admirer!]

[Haha! How can someone be so devoted? It's killing me with laughter!]

Qin Xian was shocked!

Tang Jun likes Secretary Jin?

Devoted admirer?

So... how devoted?

[Good morning, good afternoon, good night messages every day. Reminders to bring an umbrella when it rains, to wear more clothes when it's cold. She never replies! Yet he's persisted for two years! That's dedication!]

Qin Xian: If only he put that dedication into his work...

[Once, just because of a casual comment from Secretary Jin about liking something, he searched all over Paris to buy it. He ended up with a fever and fainted. When Secretary Jin received the gift, she only said "drink more hot water," and he cried his heart out! Such sincere devotion!]

Qin Xian: If only he showed such sincerity towards his work!

[He once played guitar and sang under her apartment in the middle of the night. The neighbors called the police for disturbing the peace, and he was taken to the station for a lecture. Secretary Jin didn't even come to bail him out! He had to find his own way out! Afterwards, he even apologized for possibly disturbing her sleep! I must say, the fact that he could consider this shows frighteningly meticulous thinking!]

Qin Xian: So who's the one making frequent mistakes at work? Is work ultimately unable to retain his meticulous mind?!

[There's even more!]

Qin Xian: There's more?!

["After falling in love with Secretary Jin, he never sought out other women, keeping himself pure. He would only look at Secretary Jin's photo and in the middle of the night under the covers... he would pleasure himself. This kind of adult gossip shouldn't be shared! I'm not interested in others' privacy!"]

Qin Xian: ...Ugh!

At this moment, Tang Jun, who was righteously speaking in front of them, was unaware that Ji Fei had completely exposed his private matters.

He only felt that the way the two people in front of him looked at him was becoming increasingly peculiar.

What did those gazes mean, mixed with a hint of sympathy and disappointment?

["Haha, so it was all Director Tang's misdeeds!"]

Qin Xian: ?? What does this have to do with Director Tang again?

Huh? Wait, what was he supposed to be dealing with just now?

Qin Xian's mind was in chaos, but ultimately his attention was drawn away by Ji Fei's emotionally charged inner thoughts.

Gossip is a temptation that even the most serious person can't resist.
