After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Li Jiawei shook her head and said firmly: "After this job is over, I will quit."

Zhou Dan looked at Li Jiawei in confusion and asked, "Why? You are doing very well now. You can consider taking the civil service exam. With your ability, you will definitely pass it."

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "I want to do something that I like to do."

Zhou Dan sighed and asked, "So what are you going to do?"

Li Jiawei said: "I have been learning to paint now. My dream since childhood is to become a fashion designer."

Zhou Dan's eyes lit up and she said, "Wow! Cool! Can I ask you to customize clothes in the future?" In fact, Zhou Dan understood Li Jiawei's choice. She had no worries about food and clothing and no pressure to survive. Why should she waste her life working from nine to five every day?

If she were as rich as Li Jiawei, she would have no idea how happy she would be. She would have quit her job long ago and spent the rest of her life paying for her own interests. That is how she truly enjoys life and pursues her dreams.

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "There will be such a day."

After the work of the tourism and culture working group was handed over, Zhao Jianye invited colleagues in the group to have a meal together. After the meal, everyone returned to their original units.

Li Jiawei submitted her resignation report to the Finance Bureau. Director Qiao looked at the resignation report in his hand and said to Li Jiawei who was sitting in front of him: "Jiawei, your work ability is obvious to all of us. In the past year, Director Zhao praised you many times and said that he would give you an excellent award at the end of the year. Would you like to consider it again?"

Li Jiawei shook her head and said firmly: "Director, I have thought it through and I will not consider it anymore."

Director Qiao said, "Actually, you can come back. Section Chief Fang completed the retirement procedures two months ago. Now Wang Xin is in charge of the General Affairs Section. I see that you and Wang Xin get along very well."

Director Qiao really didn't want Li Jiawei to resign. After all, her uncle was the governor. With Li Jiawei in the Finance Bureau, Director Qiao could enjoy some invisible benefits even if she did nothing.

However, Li Jiawei refused Director Qiao's request to stay: "Thank you Director Qiao, but I have made up my mind."

Director Qiao sighed and said, "Okay then! However, you have worked here for several years. Since you are leaving, we will give you a small farewell party and a meal. Don't refuse this."

This offer was indeed impossible to refuse. Li Jiawei had worked in the Finance Bureau for so many years. Except for some unpleasantness with Section Chief Fang, she got along well with other colleagues.

Li Jiawei said: "Okay."

Director Qiao looked at the time and saw it was only 3:30 in the afternoon, so he asked, "How about setting it for tonight?"

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "I'll follow your arrangements."

Director Qiao called Brother Liu and said, "Director Liu, please inform your colleagues in the bureau that if you have nothing else to do in the evening, let's go out for dinner together to see Jiawei off."

Brother Liu glanced at Li Jiawei and asked in surprise, "Jiawei, are you really going to resign?"

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "Yes, thank you for your care over the years."

Brother Liu said: "What are you thanking me for? We are all colleagues. Let's keep in touch in the future."

Li Jiawei nodded and watched Brother Liu leave Director Qiao's office.

In the evening, according to Director Qiao's arrangement, all the colleagues in the bureau attended the dinner, a total of thirteen people came. Although we were familiar with each other before, we hadn't been in touch for nearly a year, so we were more or less unfamiliar.

What's more, there was the Fang Mei incident. Many people in the bureau believed that Li Jiawei called the police just because of a quarrel and sent an old comrade like Fang Mei to the detention center, which was really excessive.

Therefore, the atmosphere of the meal was somewhat awkward. Except for Director Qiao's polite words at the beginning, everyone toasted Li Jiawei with a glass of wine, and then they spent most of the time eating and chatting. Except for Wang Xin, Brother Liu and Zhao Xue who occasionally said a few words to Li Jiawei, everyone else looked at Li Jiawei as if she were a stranger.

Li Jiawei didn't care about it. She knew that the hardest thing in the world was to feel someone else's feelings. If it didn't happen to them, they would never know how much damage a woman would suffer from making up a dirty rumor. So, she never regretted sending Fang Mei to the detention center.

However, when everyone was eating, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open, and Zhang Yi's mother Xu Xianglan walked in with a haggard face. When she saw Li Jiawei walking beside Director Qiao, she suddenly ran towards Li Jiawei.

This was the first time Li Jiawei saw Xu Xianglan after the divorce. She was no longer as delicate as before, and looked very haggard. Her black hair was now half white. However, none of this could change her harsh face.

Wang Xin was sitting next to Li Jiawei, and when he saw Xu Xianglan rushing over, he subconsciously stood up and tried to stop her. But although Xu Xianglan looked haggard, her strength was so great that Wang Xin staggered back a few steps.

Li Jiawei sat in her seat and did not stand up. She just looked at Xu Xianglan quietly to see what she was going to do.

Xu Xianglan stood in front of Li Jiawei, her eyes flickering with the desire to eat Li Jiawei. However, she didn't say anything, but suddenly knelt in front of Li Jiawei and kowtowed three times.

Blood immediately flowed from her forehead, which was enough to show how much strength she had used when she kowtowed.

However, the moment she knelt down, Li Jiawei stood up, turned sideways, and looked at Xu Xianglan coldly.

Xu Xianglan raised her head and looked at Li Jiawei without wiping the blood from her cheek. Her state made everyone present feel sorry for her.

In this world, the two people who can make people let down their guard and soften their hearts the most are children and the elderly. Although everyone didn't know what happened and why Xu Xianglan knelt down and kowtowed to Li Jiawei, they subconsciously condemned Li Jiawei, thinking that no matter what, she shouldn't force an old man into such a situation.

Xu Xianglan looked at the reactions of the crowd and achieved her desired effect. Then, she looked at Li Jiawei's calm expression and wanted to tear her apart, but at this moment she had to put down her attitude and kneel here in humiliation, letting people watch.

Seeing this, Wang Xin hurried forward to pull Xu Xianglan: "Auntie, please get up first, there are so many people watching us."

Xu Xianglan broke free from Wang Xin's hand and looked at him with tears in her eyes: "Child, you don't know that our family can't survive. Don't even mention kneeling down and kowtow, even if you want my life, I will give it to her."

Wang Xin walked up to her and pulled her and said, "Auntie, please get up first and then we can talk about it."

Xu Xianglan said, "I won't get up." Then, she looked at Li Jiawei and kowtowed a few more times: "Jiawei, your divorce with Zhang Yi is our family's fault. I kowtow to you to apologize. But our crimes do not deserve the death penalty. Please be magnanimous and spare us. We can't beat you, so please spare us." After that, she kowtowed a few more times in the direction where Li Jiawei was standing, regardless of Wang Xin's pulling, and more blood flowed from her cheeks.
