Chapter 365 - "That bitch had gone too far this time!" (1)

When the topic on Jiang DeXian was brought up, even Li XinYun became nosy. "Say, Mom, are you going to go out with him?"

The employees at Fang JunRong's company already knew that Jiang DeXian was chasing her. He wasn't exactly being subtle. Li XinYun had a lot of respect for her mother when it came to this.

She was able to remain steadfast in front of such a beautiful man. Compared to the outsiders, she saw more as Fang JunRong's daughter.

Jiang DeXian was not just a boy toy that others thought he was. He built his own empire where nobody saw. He was the boss that had never shown his face in a very well-known IT company.

Other than Jiang DeXian, her mother had many other suitors. Some of them, however, were too utilitarian. They saw the relationship more as a joint force. Naturally, they did not score as high as Jiang DeXian in her mind.

Fang JunRong's lips curved up some and she flicked her on her forehead. "You are still a child. Don't worry so much."

Li XinYun chuckled. That was not an absolute no, meaning to say there was a chance there. Even though many whispered to her to pay close attention over her mother's assets and not let them end up with an outsider, but Li XinYun truly didn't care about that. She would be supportive if her mother decided to get re-married, as long as she would be happy. Her mother had already sacrificed a lot for her. She had no right to stop her from finding her own happiness.

Most importantly, she wanted others to know that it didn't matter that a woman was a divorcee. As long as she was a good catch, she could still have a lot of quality suitors.

Fang JunRong shook her head, "We'll see."

She couldn't define the current relationship between herself and Jiang DeXian. They seemed to be a bit hazier than just friends but not quiet boyfriend and girlfriend. As far as she was concerned, she was able to feel relaxed around Jiang DeXian.

With a glass of fresh-squeezed juice in her hand, she walked over to the window and appreciated the bright and clean moon.

"Such a nice moon tonight."

It must be nice to take a stroll under such a moon.

All of a sudden, Fang JunRong was in the mood to be in a relationship.

***

When Fang JunRong was finally in the mood to be in a relationship, Jiang YaGe, on the other hand, waited desperately every day for Li ShiZe to bring the bracelet home.

She had already missed it once. She couldn't repeat that mistake again.

She waited and waited and all she got was the worse and worse look on Li ShiZe when he got home.

It was torturous. If only she could drive, she would have gone to be a chauffeur herself.

"She still wouldn't sell it?" asked Jiang YaGe anxiously.

Li ShiZe shook his head and sighed. "I told her that I am willing to pay any amount but she was still reluctant to part with it."

Jiang YaGe cussed that Li ShiZe was useless in her mind. So what if she didn't want to sell? He's a chauffeur, just take it when she wasn't paying attention.

"Well, perhaps I can go work at the Gu's too." Just getting inside the Gu's would help. If she could get inside, she will have the opportunity to get her hands on the bracelet herself.

Li ShiZe looked at her and had a troubled look. "It's alright. I don't want you to be unhappy. Wang Ya, the madam of the Gu family does not like people with your kind of looks."

"Huh? Why?" Was it because Wang Ya had heard of her scandals online? To avoid being pointed at and talked about, Jiang YaGe specifically went and got plastic surgery after she got out of jail.

"The Gu is a big family so boss Gu had a few lovers on the sideline. All of them are the same type as you. As such, Madam isn't a fan of those who look like you."

Jiang YaGe was not pleased when she heard that. "That's biased! Preposterous! I am not the same as those people. I would never be someone's mistress!"

Jiang YaGe plopped down on the couch, annoyed. She felt that she was deeply offended.

Chapter 366 - "That bitch had gone too far this time!" (2)

Her behavior made Li ShiZe want to sneer. In his dream, Jiang YaGe didn't even hesitate to become someone's mistress just to maintain her luxurious lifestyle.

The thoughts of all of her disgusting behaviors made him not even want to pretend to be civilized around her. He turned and returned to his room. The bait had been set. Jiang YaGe would have to decide on what she wanted to do next.

Jiang YaGe waited for a while but her boyfriend never returned to woo her. She felt aggrieved. She could tell that Li ShiZe had been distant to her lately. Was it because he had been thinking about his mother?

If it was before, she would for certain felt unhappy and indignant over it but, now, all she could think about was the bracelet. Once she could get her hands on the bracelet and went back to the mystical mountain, she wouldn't care about how rich Li ShiZe was. What Li ShiZe had said to her replayed in her mind repeatedly.

Boss Gu liked girls like her...

The look on her changed back and forth and she struggled long and hard over it. She finally made up her mind after the lord knew how long. She was tired and sick of the future that she could foresee and her days without lights. She wanted to take a chance, even if it meant a shameless exchange.

As such, Li ShiZe did not see Jiang YaGe when he returned home the next day.

Just as he had expected, Jiang YaGe finally followed the same path.

He chuckled deeply. There was sarcasm in his laugh. The sarcasm wasn't directly only at Jiang YaGe, but also at his own self who was once so blindly in love with her.

Jiang YaGe didn't take too much with her. All she took was some clothing and she left a letter behind for him.

She broke up with him in the letter. She expressed that she no longer wished to hold him back and that he should look for a nice girl for himself.

That was her usual style. She was the one in the wrong but she would always make it sound like she was the one who was sacrificing for him.

Even if he was the one who was setting Jiang YaGe up, choosing to go down that path was her own idea. He couldn't wait for the day of her destruction.

Li ShiZe quickly sold his little house. He listed it below market price and, with the house prices going up madly in City S, it was sold not long after it was listed. With the money, he hired a few private investigators and had them tailed Boss Gu specifically. Sure enough, per the private investigators, it didn't take Jiang YaGe much to become one of his mistresses. He liked her quite a bit and even bought a house with two bedrooms and a living room under her name. The two had only been together for barely a week.

Jiang YaGe was surely talented when it came to manipulating men.

Li ShiZe took quite a few pictures and sent them to Wang Ya, Boss Gu's wife.

Nevertheless, he waited for days and still hadn't heard a peep from Boss Gu's wife. She still went out and shop, shop, shop and buy, buy, buy as usual. She lived her days freely as though nothing had happened.

Did she really not care at all? Fang JunRong, his mother, was so angry that she asked for a divorce when she found out that his father had a fling with Wang SiXian.

He had hoped that the shrew Wang Ya would help him take care of Jiang YaGe and bring about Jiang YaGe's total destruction.

Li ShiZe plunged into deep thoughts.

At the same time, Jiang YaGe, even though was now with Boss Gu and that he liked her so much that he even bought a house forher – any other mistresses would be very delighted – was still unhappy.

She had never forgotten her purpose. She did not sacrifice body to an oily middled-aged man for a house; she did it for the bracelet.

Nevertheless, when she asked for the bracelet coquettishly from Boss Gu, the normally gentle Boss Gu dropped his face immediately.

"You need to keep your status in mind! You are asking for my wife's bracelet now. What's next? Her position?"

"Just who do you think you are? You are just a plaything and you are not worthy to drool over what is hers."

Boss Gu stomped out after he said that. He was so angry that the vein on his forehead throbbed.

Chapter 367 - "That bitch had gone too far this time!" (3)

Jiang YaGe was stunned. She had seen Wang Ya, his wife. She was just an everyday vulgar middle-aged woman. No man would like a woman like that, not to mention someone like Boss Gu.

She had thought that Boss Gu had some real feelings for her and they were still in their honeymoon period, which was why she brought that up. She didn't expect that he would be infuriated and didn't care about her feelings at all.

In the next few days, not only did Boss Gu not come to visit, he didn't even give her a call.

Jiang YaGe didn't care whether she was still one of Boss Gu's favorites. But she needed him to get to the bracelet.

One way or another, she needed to woo him back. Perhaps his wife was more important to him than she had originally thought.

She reflexively placed her hand over her stomach – would she have more bargaining chips if she was with child? She had looked into it before. Boss Gu only had two daughters with his wife, no sons.

She didn't want to have a child with a man that she disliked but now was not the time to dwell on the details. She must do that for her goal. She had already sacrificed too much and she had passed the point of no return.

***

Fang JunRong was shopping with Wang Ya. Specifically, she was helping Wang Ya pick out some appropriate clothes. Next month, March, was Wang Ya's older daughter's 18-year-old birthday. Wang Ya wanted to dress up nicely for the event, which was why she brought Fang JunRong with her to consult.

Wang Ya and her husband were legends in the scene. Her husband started out in the coal business. When he made enough, he switched gear into the jewelry market and, lo and behold, the two made it in that market. Nevertheless, with his earlier start in the coal business and being a newly rich, they were considered as parvenue riche by most and many did not want to hang out with them.

Fang JunRong, on the other hand, felt that Wang Ya was much more easy going than most. She enjoyed being flattered but she wasn't a bad person. And she and her husband donated more money to charities than most other big companies every year.

That was another reason why Wang Ya enjoyed being around Fang JunRong. Not only did the two have similar interests, but also that she was comfortable around Fang JunRong.

"Speaking of, I heard that the peaches in our orchards are already fruiting. That was fast. Hadn't it only been two years?" Didn't it normally take peaches three years to produce fruit?

Fang JunRong's lips curved and she nodded slightly. It was, after all, pits from peaches from the dimension. They didn't grow as good as they would have in the dimension but were still better than the others on the market.

"I'll send you some to try when they are ready."

"Excellent. I've heard a long time ago that your fruits are the best and they are not available on the market either," said Wang Ya.

Fang JunRong picked out three sets of clothes for Wang Ya as Wang Ya enjoyed wearing her full sets of jewelry when she attended banquets.

As such, they needed to pick out styles that could go well with her jewelry. Fang JunRong bought a few sets for herself as well while they were out. When they were tired from shopping, they two went over to a well-known café for some tea.

Wang Ya was normally the one doing most of the talking and Fang JunRong only made a comment here and there.

Half way through their tea break, Wang Ya's cell phone chimed. She clicked open casually and her look froze on her when she saw the content.

"OH MY GOSH. That bastard Gu Zhen! He had gone too far this time!"

Wang Ya was so angry that her chest heaved up and down.

"Gone too far? What happened?" Fang JunRong had met Boss Gu a few times in the past and he seemed the mature and cautious type.
