What? Lin Yu really didn’t expect Han Xue to know about this. They t in a private place precisely for secrecy, so how could it be leaked?
Moreover, City S isn’t within Han Xue’s sphere of influence. He hadn’t let anything slip before, nor ntioned this to anyone. How did Han Xue find out? Did she hire a private investigator to track them?
Looking at Lin Yu, who seed dumbfounded and confused, Han Xue sneered, "You think just because I’m not in City S, I don’t know your movents?"
"You should know that too many people want to see laugh, and many want to see you fall, so they’ll keep an eye on you." Han Xue thought about exposing Zhang Yu but ultimately gave up.
She’s about to sever ties with the Han family, who won’t support her. If she offends Zhang Yu, the outco won’t be good. It’s better not to say anything.
Han Xue’s words made Lin Yu start thinking about who might be stabbing him in the back; the first suspect was Zhang Yu.
Despite the huge cost he paid during the divorce, his heart ached thinking about the large flat he had lost.
When divorcing, did he think buying a house was difficult? With the support of the Han family, not only large flats, but even a big villa was within reach, and with more effort, he could even buy a courtyard in the Capital City.
But who could have imagined that his days after remarrying would be the ones he’d least want to rember? There were intense monts, but the downturn ca just as quickly.
Well, even a downturn isn’t too bad compared to many ordinary people. Yet, he hadn’t expected Han Xue’s temperant to be so terrible; when in a bad mood or things didn’t go her way, she didn’t care about the circumstances and would lash out verbally or physically.
As for a man’s pride? Sorry, that’s not her concern; what she cares about is her own pride.
Lin Yu already regretted marrying Han Xue; the only thing sustaining him was the ambition to rise above, a leap of class, but the dream ended so quickly.
He’s no longer Han Xue’s husband; he has no problem with this, as Han Xue won’t end up well anyway. Being Han Xue’s husband didn’t benefit his future anyway, so divorce it is.
But he hadn’t expected the divorce to land him as if he had just graduated from university.
Sure, he doesn’t have much money now. Though he was quite poor just after graduating, he had a bright future—living in an apartnt provided by the Zhang Family with Zhang Yu, and there was a woman beside him willing to endure hardship.
Looking back at himself now, middle-aged and with a small belly, trying to woo a girl from an influential family is virtually impossible.
The financial circle already knows of his forr glory, especially why he went to university after coaxing his first love to quit school and work to support him, only to pursue other girls once he got in.
Any girl with so family assets, her parents wouldn’t agree to let her marry him. Finding a more ordinary girl, he’s unwilling, with no support at all.
Sigh, Lin Yu returned to the rented apartnt without enthusiasm, looking at this two-bedroom place and sighed helplessly. The previous house he lived in was taken by Han Xue, claiming he was the cheating party, while the marital ho that was bought is now hers.
After all, both parties contributed financially; Han Xue paid the majority. Given the situation now, of course the house goes to her. This place is one he just found a couple of days ago.
He did want to rent a better place, but those that looked good and were close to the company had rent costs that were not trivial. With an empty wallet, Lin Yu could only rent such a place.
"Damn it," Lin Yu sat on the sofa calculating for a long ti, getting angrier with each calculation. "Clearly a wealthy person, but so excessive."
Lin Yu suddenly realized that the money he got after divorcing Zhang Yu was mostly spent by Han Xue, not to ntion what he earned these days.
He got promotions and raises, completed several projects, albeit small ones, but commissions should still be given, and earlier projects’ completion brought subsequent bonuses from the company.
These accumulated over a million, and he received private benefits too, not a small amount, yet only Han Xue knows the exact figure.
Thinking of Han Xue’s prior actions, Lin Yu sighed helplessly, "Life is truly difficult. How can I live like this?"
Lin Yu could ignore the pointing and whispering of those around him; there were just too many recent events. If he paid them all attention, he’d really have no way to survive.
Knowing his path to cross social classes is basically blocked, Lin Yu began considering what future path to take.
He had thought the best solution would be to return to Zhang Yu’s side. Originally he thought his ex-wife would regret the divorce, but her life is thriving.
Results from his investigation showed Zhang Yu, as a full-ti student post-divorce, had an annual inco easily surpassing her previous salary.
More importantly, Zhang Yu and Xie Zhen had a good relationship, with him constantly asking her to work for him.
If Zhang Yu agrees to work for Xie Zhen, wouldn’t he have a chance to work there too? Previously he’d have minded being called a freeloader, but now he doesn’t care at all.
Thinking about this, Lin Yu no longer mulled over who stabbed him in the back; his only thought was to reconcile with Zhang Yu, promising to be obedient and not get distracted by unnecessary thoughts.
Lin Yu feels he truly sacrifices a lot. As a man, his focus should be his career. While with Han Xue, he didn’t abandon his career, but now he’s willing to give up his future. Shouldn’t Zhang Yu be moved?
Although Lin Yu had made up his mind, he still thought about going back to his job. If his job remains secure, he could continue working steadily; earning hundreds of thousands annually is enough for a decent life in City S.
Adding his stock market investnt profits, his days should be quite good, with no need to act according to anyone’s whims.
Thinking about this, Lin Yu turned the steering wheel, knowing he must behave honestly now. Otherwise, losing both wife and job would make him the most miserable.
Considering who’s behind the betrayal again, was it soone from the company? Indeed, they could only get promoted if he was removed.
Was it the Han Family? Makes sense, as they’re treacherous and wouldn’t find such actions surprising.
Not having arrived at the company yet, Lin Yu’s mind had listed many possible opponents, which prompted him to sigh, "This isn’t easy."
So people have capability and family background which he can’t handle, needing to avoid cautiously.
There are others with capability but no family background that also need to be avoided, lest they beco successful later on, leaving him with no good outco.
Those without capability but with family background also need to be avoided, as they could go back and complain, leaving him equally with no good outco.
