I just got divorced, and the female CEO is already clinging to me.

Chapter 23 Pampering from My Stepmother

Seeing that her stepmother intended to stand up for her and punish Wu Hao, Shen Qingrou added fuel to the fire, saying, "Wu Hao is the son of Wu Shigang, the owner of Dimei Decoration Materials Co., Ltd."

The photos that appeared online were taken by him secretly at my hotel yesterday.

I was wondering why those bastards suddenly checked into my hotel last night; I never imagined they were up to something.

Ling Suqiu's outstanding face was so gloomy it could drip water: "Dare to mess with my daughter, Wu Shigang has really raised a good son!"

Is this a challenge to test the strength of my Shen Group?

Shen Qingrou said weakly, "Mom, you have to stand up for me."

Ling Suqiu readily agreed, saying, "Don't worry about this, Mom will take care of it for you."

Seeing Ling Suqiu's protectiveness of Shen Qingrou, Shen Qianfeng was pleased, but also felt that overprotecting Shen Qingrou was not a good thing.

He needs a successor who can stand on his own, not a spoiled brat who is willful and demands his parents to solve everything.

"Madam, it all boils down to these are matters between the children."

If we, as adults, were to step forward, people would probably laugh at my successor, saying he's incompetent and only knows how to rely on his parents.

I think it's best to let the girl handle this herself.

All we need to do is provide her with resources.

Upon hearing that her father was abandoning her and leaving her to handle the situation herself, Shen Qingrou immediately looked at Ling Suqiu with a completely bewildered expression: "Mom, what should I do? I have no experience in dealing with this kind of thing."

Seeing his daughter so weak in the face of trouble, Shen Qianfeng was furious and scolded her with a sense of disappointment, "You've never been this cowardly when you're going against your father."

What are you afraid of? It's not like you're in the wrong!

Clarify what needs to be clarified, and present the evidence where necessary.

Our Shen Group's public relations team isn't just sitting idly by!

Seeing that showing weakness didn't work, Shen Qingrou had no choice but to act spoiled and give up: "Anyway, I don't care, you guys figure out how to solve this."

If I can't solve it, let the outside world say whatever they want about me.

Anyway, I'm the daughter of the Shen family. If I'm disgraced, it's not just myself I'll be disgraced, but the entire Shen family."

"You!" Shen Qianfeng clutched his heart, his face contorted in pain.

If it weren't for her strong tolerance, her heart would have stopped.

Ling Suqiu hurriedly went up to Shen Qianfeng and patted his chest: "We're all family, it doesn't matter who solves it."

She then turned to Shen Qingrou and said, "Don't upset your father. Everyone knows he has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He asked you to step in and resolve the issue so that he could train you."

Since you're not happy about it, the group will help you resolve it.

I'll inform the public relations department right away.

Shen Qingrou immediately beamed with joy, looking at Ling Suqiu with a flattering expression, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mom."

Ling Suqiu's face hardened: "What's with the thank you? Who told me to be your mother?"

"From now on, talk to Mom more about anything. Your dad's a rough man; he doesn't understand girls' feelings."

Shen Qingrou hummed in agreement and took the opportunity to slip away: "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving now."

Shen Qianfeng snorted and glared, saying, "Can't you do something productive during work hours?!"

Shen Qingrou said matter-of-factly, "My assistant will handle everything for me, so the chairman doesn't need to worry about it."

Shen Qianfeng's lips trembled with anger: "Look at what you're saying!"

Shen Qingrou ignored it and quickly left.

After she left, Shen Qianfeng picked up the peony-decorated enamel mug on his desk, took a big gulp of water to calm himself down, and asked Ling Suqiu, "What are your plans for the public relations side?"

Although Wu Shigang's son is hateful, he has nothing to do with Wu Shigang.

Wait a minute, isn't this Wu Shigang Cheng's brother-in-law?

How could I have forgotten about this connection?

Check if we still have any cooperation with Wu Shigang.

Ling Suqiu's lips curled into a cold smile: "Whether there is cooperation or not, Wu Shigang has to make a phone call to give them a warning, as a way of making an example of them."

However, there is only one culprit in this whole affair, and that is Ye Cheng.

He seduced my daughter, the Shen family's daughter, and abandoned his first wife.

My Shen family is also one of the victims.

Shen Qianfeng frowned slightly, feeling a pang of pity, and said, "Doing this is rather unfair..."

"What fairness or unfairness? What do people at the bottom of society want?"

Just give him some money afterwards.

You're too soft-hearted, which gave the Cheng Group an opportunity to take advantage; otherwise, there wouldn't have been a three-way power struggle.

Shen Qianfeng emphasized, "I have investigated Ye Cheng's information. He was an excellent student. If he hadn't donated a kidney to save Ai, he would have become a cripple."

Perhaps they have already made a name for themselves in this Hedong city.

What I mean is that we should use gentler methods whenever possible.

It's best not to be too forceful.

Ling Suqiu looked at Shen Qianfeng with dissatisfaction: "Look at you, so afraid of everything. You're just a useless person."

Okay, I know what to do.

Leave this to me, you can rest assured.

Shen Qingrou left the chairman's office and went straight to the underground parking garage, where she drove her red Maserati to the Qingrou Hotel.

As soon as the car arrived outside, she called Ye Cheng.

"Hey, what's the matter?"

Ye Cheng's voice was calm. Shen Qingrou thought he was still unaware of the matter and said coldly, "Your ex-wife is causing trouble. Did you know that?"

"I know, so what?" Ye Cheng's voice remained calm. "I knew about it half an hour before you called."

Seeing that Ye Cheng wasn't angry at all, Shen Qingrou slowed down the car and asked curiously, "You've become a heartless man, don't you care at all?"

Ye Cheng chuckled and said, "I'm just a nobody in society, with no ties to anyone and no need to face any family members. What do I need to care about?"

Once the hype dies down, who will remember a man named Ye Cheng?

Moreover, in a society where morals are declining, this kind of thing is nothing new.

You seem to be in a hurry?

Shen Qingrou scoffed, "Why am I in such a hurry? It's perfectly normal for me, Shen Qingrou, to steal a man."

I'm just furious at their dirty tricks; I wish I could tear your ex-wife apart with my bare hands.

What an ungrateful wretch you saved! I feel so sorry for you.

Ye Cheng sighed regretfully: "Actually, in the three years of our marriage, she has been very good to me and has taken meticulous care of me."

Perhaps they were misled.

I have a feeling she was being used too.

Shen Qingrou was furious: "She's already like this, and you're still protecting her."

The Shen Group's public relations department will handle this matter. I have already told Old Man Shen and my stepmother the truth.

Don't worry, a small-time internet celebrity can't compete with the Shen Group.

Even with Wu Hao behind her, it still wouldn't work.

The more they make a scene now, the more miserable their deaths will be in a few days.

Uncle Guan said you shouldn't have too many emotional fluctuations; I'm relieved that you can handle this calmly.

Ye Cheng chuckled: "You seem to care about me quite a bit."

Shen Qingrou was slightly taken aback, but stubbornly replied, "I wouldn't say I'm concerned, I'm just afraid that if you die, I won't have anything to play with anymore."

After saying that, she hung up the phone, looked at the red light ahead, and gave a cruel smile: "Hmph, you dare to flirt with me? You'll regret it later."

Just then, her phone rang.

Shen Qingrou glanced at the screen and saw Du Miaowei's name displayed. She frowned and began to look around the car.
