Chapter 119 - 29. Pregnant? (1/2)
Fu Xing office building, He Yi’s private office.
Zhuo Hongzhao was dejected. He didn’t have the face-to-face, He Yi. He sat on the sofa with his head drooping, he explained,”… I also had no choice! I don’t know who she heard those words from, but she thinks that I and you… have something shameful! How is this possible? Not to mention that your husband is so outstanding, and you’re not a frivolous woman! I don’t know who told her that the patent should belong to me, but she insisted on forcing me to get the patent back. I repeatedly explained to her that President He and I did the experiment, and the secret formula was also provided by president He. The lab, assistant, and experimental funds are all president He’s. How can I have any reason to swallow the patent alone?”
He Yi looked at him coldly. After a long while, she said, “Logically speaking, she is your wife and has the right to know everything about you. But from the meaning of your words, it seems that you are hiding something from her!”
“Yes!” Zhuo Hongzhao admitted, “The relationship between her and me… is not good, especially since I just returned to China and lost my job for a year… she is always making trouble and complaining that I can’t earn money, and she even wants to divorce me… I don’t have any feelings for her! It was not easy to meet you, president He. You supported me and gave me a chance to get to where I am today! I’m not saying that I’m being grateful, but at least I have a conscience. How can I keep the patent money alone?”
He Yi nodded. “In other words, you didn’t take the initiative to tell her about the factory, but she knows about it. She also knows that I worked overtime with you to do experiments and made a big fuss about it!”
“Yeah!” Zhuo Hongzhao complained helplessly. “I wonder where she heard it from! Who is so talkative?”
“I’m afraid that some people with good intentions are deliberately trying to sow discord!” He Yi felt that this matter was not simple, but she couldn’t think of any result even if someone had instigated Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife to make trouble. “How do you plan to deal with this matter?”
She had no interest in always cleaning up the mess for others. She had not thought of sharing the patent for the invention, but Zhuo Hongzhao had taken the initiative to offer to share it with her, and she did not refuse. Because he was right. The formula needed for the patent was provided by her, and the funding for the experiment was also provided by her. She had also participated in the entire process of the experiment, it was only because she was busy getting married that Zhuo Hongzhao was pushed alone to the final stage of the sprint.
Now that Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife came to make a fuss about it, she had no intention of backing down. Because she knew very well that she couldn’t give in to certain people. If she gave in, she would have to give in countless times. The human heart was not enough, and the snake swallowed the elephant!
“I…” Zhuo Hongzhao looked at her helplessly. Seeing that she didn’t seem to have any intention of giving in, he swallowed his saliva. “How about… how about… how about letting her stay in the police station for a few more days!”
“…” He Yi was speechless! She finally understood what it meant to say that a pitiful person must have something hateful.
“I know, I’ve caused trouble for president He! It’s just… It’s just… I really can’t do anything to this shrew!” Zhuo Hongzhao hugged his big head, he sighed helplessly. “I’ve given all my income to her, but she still won’t stop! Unless… I give her all the patent money for my invention…”
“I’m sorry,” He Yi said coldly. “The patent money should indeed be half of mine. I don’t owe your wife anything, so I will never give it to her!”
Her attitude was cold and clear, without any room for negotiation.
“Oh! Oh!” Zhuo Hongzhao explained awkwardly. “I didn’t mean that. I didn’t mean that I want president He to give her half of the patent money that belongs to you… I mean…”
In the end, he didn’t say anything. The only clear request was that his shrew wife could stay in the police station for a few more days!
He Yi looked at Zhuo Hongzhao’s trembling and timid look. He was afraid of his wife, but he had no way to deal with her. She took a deep breath and suggested tentatively, “Have you considered divorce?”
Zhuo Hongzhao’s whole body trembled, and he seemed to be very scared. “Divorce… Divorce?”
Looking at his terrified look, it seemed that he was going to fight a fierce tiger with his bare hands.
“Instead of living in such pain, it’s better to cut the Gordian knot quickly!” He Yi’s expression and tone remained cold. At first, she admired Zhuo Hongzhao’s talent and kindness very much, and always felt that it was a pity that he had no talent. Now, it seemed that there was a reason why he had been down and out in the past — poor people must have their detestable aspects! “I know you have two children, but living in such an environment of war every day is very disadvantageous to their growth. I hope you can consider it!”
“I.. I. . .” Zhuo Hongzhao was about to cry. “She will kill me!”
He Yi thought about his wife’s fierce look and knew that he was not exaggerating. This woman was capable of doing anything because her possessiveness was too strong. “I will assign you two bodyguards. They will be responsible for your safety from now on. In addition, they will help you find two nannies to take care of your two children. They will also help you hire a lawyer and immediately start preparing for a divorce lawsuit. Before the divorce, you will live in the factory and don’t go anywhere. Don’t worry, she can’t kill you. Do you think this is okay?”
Zhuo Hongzhao’s mouth was wide open as if he was shocked by He Yi’s thunderous methods. He never thought that the matter that had troubled him for half of his life could be handled so quickly and properly. “Uh!…”
He Yi crossed her fingers and exhaled lightly. “I suggest you do as I say! Otherwise, you will live the rest of your life in endless arguments and scolding, and your children will also be affected!”
At the mention of the children, Zhuo Hongzhao made up his mind. “It’s fine if she hits me, but she often hits the children… for them… I can’t live with this shrew anymore! “President He… Thank you… otherwise, I wouldn’t have the guts to divorce her! She’s too much of a troublemaker. Every time, she smashes the house, beats me up, and even hits and scolds the children! To make her calm down, I’ll do whatever she wants…”
This was the consequence of being weak! The compromise with the strong would never end. After one compromise, there would be a second compromise! Then, there would be endless exploitation.
“Okay, then do as I’ve arranged!” He Yi could see that if she didn’t help Zhuo Hongzhao make a decision, he would never know how to deal with this mischievous woman. She picked up the phone and instructed her assistant. “Please contact the labor service company immediately and help hire two bodyguards… men will do! Also, hire two housewives to take care of the children… Yes, and contact a lawyer. It’s a divorce case!”
Zhuo Hongzhao sat there with a bitter look on his face. After He Yi hung up the phone, he mumbled, “How many days will that shrew be locked up in the police station?”
He Yi couldn’t help but sigh. “She didn’t commit any major crimes. She’ll be released very soon! Don’t worry, as long as you follow my arrangements, you’ll be able to get rid of her!”

“Decisive and ruthless, doing things without hesitation! What should I do? I seem to like you more and more!”
Wen Yongxiang gave Ji Xueshan a thumbs up, not concealing his admiration and affection for her!
Ji Xueshan, on the other hand, was disgusted and full of disdain. “Why do you haunt me all day? Aren’t you annoying?”
Wen Yongxiang’s face fell, and he explained in a low voice, “My looks can be considered to be worthy of the audience. Why do you always look like this when you see me?”
“Second Young Master Wen, please have some self-respect!” Ji Xueshan could not be bothered to waste her breath on him, and she directly walked away. “Don’t pester me anymore, I have no interest in you!”
Wen Yongxiang still did not give up, and shouted, “Who are you interested in?”
Ji Xueshan stopped walking, and her heart seemed to move slightly, but in the end, she swallowed all her words. “It has nothing to do with you!”
With that, she left without looking back!
Looking at the woman’s unsentimental back, Wen Yongxiang’s fighting spirit was ignited. “Just you wait, I’ll catch up to you one day!”
Then, he kicked her away! Of course, he did not say the last sentence. A young and energetic man, for a woman who never set him in her eyes, no doubt ignited a strong desire to conquer.
After wandering for half a lifetime, he finally met someone who caught his eye, and that was the pursuit of his entire life. Anyway, he was very free and had nothing else to do, so he might as well chase a woman!
Even if he could never get this woman, he would not give up. Just treat it as an extremely challenging game!

After dealing with Zhuo Hongzhao’s matter, He Yi only felt that her head was a little heavy, so she leaned on the table to take a nap for a while. When she woke up, she felt that her entire body was soft, and her throat seemed to be on fire. She might have caught a cold.
She didn’t expect to catch a cold at this time!
He Yi dialed Ji Xueshan’s cell phone and the other party hung up. After a while, Ji Xueshan pushed the door open and walked in.
“I might have caught a cold!” He Yi stroked her heavy head and said, “Take me home!”
“Okay!” Ji Xueshan paused and suggested, “I’ll help you buy some cold medicine on the way!”

In the chairman’s Office of Wanfang Group’s skyscraper.
Chu Piaoyun threw his phone angrily and almost died from anger. “Useless thing, He Yi sent her away just like that!”
Fang Yuan walked in and saw that Chu Piaoyun’s expression was extremely bad, so she asked, “Mom, what happened? Did Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife not go to Fu Xing to cause trouble?”
“That shrew went to cause trouble, but she was captured by the police! That’s fine, but we’ve already achieved our goal. The most infuriating thing is that she actually let Zhuo Hongzhao live in the factory and even hired two bodyguards for him. He definitely won’t step out of the factory before the divorce. What do you think we should do?”
Hearing this, Fang Yuan was shocked. She said, “Could it be that He Yi knows about our plan? !”
“That might not be the case!” Chu Piaoyun judged. “It might be that the shrew offended He Yi so much that she wanted to instigate Zhuo Hongzhao to divorce! But with this, our plan might have some changes!”
