After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

Chapter 39 The Horn of Counterattack

Yan Jin stumbled out of Xiang Yu's office, her high heels making crisp sounds on the marble floor, but it couldn't cover up the overwhelming sadness and anger in her heart. She didn't know how she left Xiang's Building, she just felt a blur in front of her eyes and a buzzing in her ears.

"Jinjin, what's wrong with you?" An anxious voice pulled Yan Jin back from the chaos.

Yan Jin looked up and saw that it was her best friend Chen Lin. Chen Lin was a good friend she had known since college. The two had experienced many ups and downs together and had a deep relationship.

"Linlin..." Yan Jin couldn't hold back any longer and threw herself into Chen Lin's arms, bursting into tears.

Chen Lin gently patted Yan Jin's back, didn't ask anything, just listened to her crying quietly. She knew that what Yan Jin needed at the moment was not comfort, but venting.

After a long time, Yan Jin finally stopped crying, raised her head, looked at Chen Lin with red and swollen eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Linlin, am I a failure?"

Chen Lin looked at Yan Jin distressedly, shook her head, and said firmly: "No, you didn't fail! It was Xiang Yu, that blind guy, who missed such a good woman like you!"

"But why can't he see the good in me?" Yan Jin murmured to herself, her tone full of confusion and pain.

"Because he was blinded by that woman Xiang Mei!" Chen Lin said indignantly, "Jinjin, don't you see it yet? Xiang Mei has been deliberately trying to sow discord between you and Xiang Yu!"

Yan Jin was stunned, and all the clues flashed through her mind: Xiang Mei always deliberately acted close to Xiang Yu in front of her, and often whispered some ambiguous words in her ear, causing her to misunderstand Xiang Yu...

"But why did she do this?" Yan Jin asked in confusion.

"Why else? Of course it's to get Xiang Yu and everything in the Xiang family!" Chen Lin said angrily, "Jinjin, you can't just sit there and wait for death! You must fight back!"

Fight back? Yan Jin's eyes flickered, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart. Yes, she couldn't just give up like that! She wanted to let Xiang Yu, let everyone see that she, Yan Jin, was not someone to be bullied!

"Linlin, you're right. I can't go on like this!" Yan Jin took a deep breath, his eyes gradually becoming firm. "I want to fight back! I want Xiang Mei to pay the price for what she did!"

Yan Jin returned home, locked herself in the study, and began to organize all the evidence she had collected over the past few years: the call records between Xiang Mei and the company's internal spies, leaked confidential documents... Every piece of evidence pointed to the same conclusion: Xiang Mei had been secretly controlling everything, trying to destroy Yan Jin and replace her.

"Sister Xiang, do you think no one knows what you did?" Yan Jin looked at the evidence in his hand and sneered, "I will make you pay for what you did!"

Three days later, Xiang Group held an important shareholders' meeting. In the meeting room, the atmosphere was solemn, and everyone's eyes were focused on the podium, waiting for Yan Jin's speech.

"Today, I want to reveal a truth to everyone." Yan Jin cleared his throat, his tone calm but with a force that could not be ignored, "About Xiang Group, and... my marriage."

Yan Jin took a deep breath and pressed the remote control in her hand. A video of Xiang Mei's conversation with the company's internal spy suddenly appeared on the screen of the conference room. In the video, Xiang Mei's voice was clearly audible. She instructed the spy to leak the company's confidential documents and hinted that the other party should put the blame on Yan Jin.

After the video was played, there was an uproar in the conference room. The shareholders were talking to each other, looking at Xiang Mei with eyes full of shock and anger.

"You... you are slandering me!" Xiang Mei's face turned pale. She pointed at Yan Jin and shouted in a trembling voice, "These are all fake. You forged the evidence!"

"Whether it is forged or not, you know it in your heart!" Yan Jin looked at Xiang Mei coldly and threw the document bag in front of her. "It also contains email records between you and overseas competitors, as well as evidence that you embezzled company funds! Do you want to deny it?"

Xiang Mei slumped in the chair, her face pale as paper. She knew she was finished.

"Brother...Brother, save me..." Xiang Mei looked at Xiang Yu desperately, her eyes full of pleading.

Xiang Yu, who had been silent all this time, now had a livid face, with shock and disappointment in his eyes. He couldn't believe that his beloved sister would do such a thing!

"Sister Xiang, you disappoint me so much!" Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that you would do such a despicable thing for your own selfish desires!"

"Brother, I was wrong... I was really wrong... Please, give me another chance, I will never dare to do it again..." Xiang Mei cried and begged, trying to grab the last straw.

"You only have one chance, and you've already missed it!" Yan Jin said coldly, "Now, please leave the company and never come back!"

Xiang Mei wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Xiang Yu's look.

"Go!" Xiang Yu closed his eyes and said painfully, "For the sake of my parents, I won't call the police, but you have to leave the company and leave here!"

Xiang Mei looked at Xiang Yu desperately, then stumbled out of the meeting room.

Yan Jin looked at Xiang Mei's back as she left, without a trace of pity in her heart. She knew that this was the fate Xiang Mei deserved.

"Dear shareholders, I am deeply sorry for what happened today." Yan Jin turned to face the shareholders and said sincerely, "I promise that I will strengthen the company's management in the future to prevent such incidents from happening again!"

The shareholders nodded in understanding and expressed their appreciation for Yan Jin's decisiveness and ability.

After the meeting, Xiang Yu walked up to Yan Jin and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.

"What do you want to say?" Yan Jin looked at him coldly, without a trace of warmth in his tone.

"I..." Xiang Yu opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"If you want to plead for Xiang Mei, then don't say a word!" Yan Jin interrupted him and turned to leave.

"I'm not..." Xiang Yu grabbed Yan Jin's wrist, but she shook him off.

"Xiang Yu," Yan Jin turned around, looked him straight in the eye, and said word by word, "It's over between us..."

Xiang Yu had never seen Yan Jin so cold and resolute. The words "It's over between us" were like a sharp blade that pierced his heart. He looked at Yan Jin's back as she left, his heart aching, and a tide of regret overwhelmed him.

In the conference room, only Xiang Yu and partner Zheng who rushed over were left. Partner Zheng patted Xiang Yu on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xiang, facts speak louder than words. I believe in Mr. Yan's ability and character. This incident also made me see the internal problems of your company. I hope you can handle it properly."

Xiang Yu smiled bitterly and nodded weakly. Partner Zheng's words were like a wake-up call, making him realize that he had been blinded all along, wrongly blamed Yan Jin, and missed the best opportunity to win her back.

After partner Zheng left, Xiang Yu sat dejectedly in a chair, replaying every moment he had spent with Yan Jin in his mind: her virtuousness in cooking for him, her wisdom in solving his problems, her strength in protecting him from the wind and rain...and yet, because of Xiang Mei's instigation, he hurt her again and again.

"Mr. Xiang," the assistant's voice sounded at the door, "Doctor Wang is here."

Xiang Yu rubbed his brows tiredly. He knew that Dr. Wang was Yan Jin's family doctor. He must have asked Yan Jin to come because he was not feeling well. Thinking of this, his heart tightened and he quickly stood up to greet him.

"Doctor Wang, how is Yan Jin?" Xiang Yu asked anxiously.

Doctor Wang pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "Ms. Yan is fine. She's just been under too much pressure lately and is a little overworked. I prescribed some tranquilizers for her. She'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Hearing that Yan Jin was fine, Xiang Yu finally let go of his worries. He nodded gratefully to Doctor Wang, and then said, "Doctor Wang, please take good care of Yan Jin for me. If there is any problem, please contact me at any time."

Doctor Wang looked at Xiang Yu deeply and said meaningfully, "I will, Mr. Xiang."

After saying that, Dr. Wang turned and left, leaving Xiang Yu with only a lonely back. Xiang Yu stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses. He knew that nothing he said now would help, and he had to wait for Yan Jin to calm down before he would have a chance to explain everything to her.

At this time, Yan Jin was sitting in the office, looking out the window calmly. Doctor Wang handed her a glass of warm water and said softly, "Boss Yan, don't worry, I have arranged for someone to help you handle the company's affairs. Just rest assured and recuperate."

Yan Jin took the cup of water and smiled faintly: "Thank you, Doctor Wang, I'm sorry for your trouble."

"This is what I should do," Doctor Wang paused and then said, "Mr. Yan, what are your plans next?"

Yan Jin put down the water cup, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "I want those who have hurt me to pay the price they deserve!"

Yan Jin's eyes were firm, and her tone was fiercer than ever before. Doctor Wang looked at the woman who seemed to be reborn from the ashes, and a sense of admiration rose in his heart. He knew that a storm was about to come.

Yan Jin returned to the company accompanied by Dr. Wang. In the company, those who used to pretend to obey her but actually disobey her, or even secretly trip her up, now lowered their heads and dared not look her in the face. Yan Jin ignored their gazes and walked straight into the meeting room.

"Sister Chen," Yan Jin called her best friend, Lawyer Chen, "We can start the plan now."

Lawyer Chen is a well-known iron lady in the industry, who is vigorous and resolute, and is one of the people Yan Jin trusts the most. After receiving Yan Jin's call, Lawyer Chen did not hesitate at all and immediately brought her team to Yan Jin's company.

A personnel earthquake was thus launched. With professionalism and ironclad evidence, Chen's team of lawyers uncovered those who were stirring up trouble within the company and damaging the company's interests. The evidence of their corruption and bribery was made public, which immediately caused an uproar within the company.

Xiang Mei's name suddenly appeared on the list of those who were fired. Xiang Yu, who heard the news, rushed over, but only saw Yan Jin's cold back.

"Yan Jin, please listen to my explanation. My little sister..."

"Xiang Yu," Yan Jin turned around and interrupted him, "It's over between us. You don't have to plead for her anymore."

Xiang Yu looked at Yan Jin's resolute eyes, his heart filled with bitterness and regret. He knew that he had missed too many opportunities, and now it was too late to make up for it.

Just when Yan Jin thought everything was settled, something unexpected happened: Xiang Mei disappeared.

"What? You said my little sister is missing?" Xiang Yu's face turned pale when he received the call.

Yan Jin's heart sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. Soon, they received a letter left by Xiang Mei.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have done so many things to hurt you. But I no longer have the courage to live..."

The content of the letter was shocking, and despair and madness were evident between the lines. Xiang Yu's hands were shaking, and he could hardly hold the thin letter paper.

"No, little sister, you can't do anything stupid!"
