Upon hearing what the auntie said, Jiang Chen and his companion were momentarily stunned.

Jiang Chen gave the auntie a disdainful look, "What are you doing, why are you meddling so much?"

Ye Jingyi, however, merely smiled faintly and nodded gently, "Auntie, I know, his ex used to beat and scold him; it's good that they divorced!"

In the information that Lin Wan showed to Ye Jingyi, Jiang Chen was genuinely the oppressed one.

The auntie was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Jiang Chen in shock.

Know? She knows not only that but also about his past? From the girl's eyes, one could even see pity for the young man.

This young man, whether or not he was abused in the past, is definitely a master of love.

He managed to get such a beautiful girl to agree to marry him, even knowing that he had just gotten divorced, and that it was only that very day, no less. He's absolutely a Casanova.

The auntie admired Jiang Chen and quickly finished processing the paperwork. When handing it over to Jiang Chen, she shielded Ye Jingyi's view with the documents and gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up.

Jiang Chen paused for a moment, then laughed out loud at the auntie's amusing behavior and took the documents.

"Thank you, auntie, we'll be going now."

Jiang Chen expressed his gratitude and left with Ye Jingyi.

After exiting the registration office, Ye Jingyi stopped and turned to Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, come to my house tomorrow so my family can meet you."

"Sure!" Jiang Chen agreed without hesitation, his heart full of excitement.

Ye Jingyi opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Where are you headed next? Do you need me to give you a lift?"

"Sure, that'd be great," Jiang Chen immediately agreed.

So Ye Jingyi went to get her car.

At that moment, an excited shout came, "Mr. Jiang!"

With this exclamation, an exceptionally beautiful woman walked up from behind Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen turned his head, and after a brief pause, he recognized the woman—it was the daughter of the patient he had seen at the hospital that day.

Wryly, Jiang Chen said, "Your name is Gong Lin? You're quite determined to chase all the way here, aren't you?"

Gong Lin pursed her lips in a smile and came over to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen then asked, "Oh, how's your mother's condition?"

Gong Lin gratefully replied, "Thanks to Mr. Jiang, my mother's condition has stabilized."

Jiang Chen nodded, "That's good to hear it's stabilized."

Gong Lin looked at Jiang Chen hopefull, "Mr. Jiang, you have saved my mother twice, and I haven't had the chance to properly thank you. Do you have time? Can we find a place to talk?"

Jiang Chen replied with a hint of regret, "I'm sorry, I'm waiting for a friend, and I have things to do later. Also, you don't have to call me Mr. Jiang, just call me Jiang Chen."

"I see!" Gong Lin nodded and then said with a light laugh, "Okay, then I'll call you Jiang Chen. I'll just say it here simply; my father learned about you saving my mother and is extremely grateful. He wants to give you a share of our Four Seas Investment Company in Jinhai. I hope you won't refuse."

"What?"

Jiang Chen was dumbfounded on the spot. Saving someone and then being offered a company in return?

What kind of situation was this?!

"No, no, that won't do," Jiang Chen hurriedly waved his hands, "Gong Lin, the gift is too big, I can't accept it, I really can't."

Gong Lin implored persistently, "Jiang Chen, please accept it. It's just a small gesture from our family. The company isn't big, and you've saved my mother's life twice. We'll feel really guilty if you refuse."

But Jiang Chen was adamant in his refusal, "No, Gong Lin, I really can't take this. An investment company, no matter how small, is still significant. No, definitely not!"

Gong Lin sighed, feeling even more that Jiang Chen was a man of exceptional character. Skilled and owing nothing in return, even when being offered a reward, he still refused because he considered it too much.

In Gong Lin's heart, Jiang Chen's stature seemed to loom even larger.

Gong Lin looked at Jiang Chen with pitiful eyes, "So, would this work? I'll be the chairman, and you be the president. Think of it as helping your sister, okay? I'm unfamiliar with Jinhai and really need some help. Plus, I don't know many people, and you're the only reliable one I've got. Please help your sister out!"

"President? Sister, please spare me. I'm not cut out for that, no way, absolutely not."

Jiang Chen was even more resolute in his refusal, and seeing Gong Lin's pitiful expression, he dared not stay any longer. After making his excuses, he didn't dare linger and took off running.

Gong Lin didn't manage to catch up and could only stamp her foot in frustration and bite her lip in anger, "This Jiang Chen, really, it's like I'm going to eat him or something."

However, at this point, she had come to value Jiang Chen even more and had made up her mind to definitely have Jiang Chen join her company and ensure he had a bright future and life.

...

Jiang Chen had run quite a distance, his mind still somewhat in a daze.

What kind of person had he rescued, to be repaid with a company and the position of president?

Was it really that amazing?

"Squeal—"

Just as Jiang Chen was lost in thought, a small car suddenly screeched to a halt in front of him.

"Yo, isn't that Jiang Chen? What are you doing here?"

A head with shiny combed hair popped out from the car window, smiling at Jiang Chen.

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Chen recognized him—it was his high school classmate Deng Fangcheng. The guy seemed to be living it up, driving a BMW 2 Series worth two to three hundred thousand, dressed up to the nines, his eyes full of smug satisfaction as he looked at Jiang Chen.

"Deng Fangcheng, eh, just waiting for someone." Jiang Chen was a bit reluctant to engage with him and hoped that the other would just greet him and leave.

But his classmate did not. Instead, he gave Jiang Chen a once-over, smirking as he said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Jiang Chen, you really haven't changed at all, still so plain."

His mocking words were laced with contempt.

Jiang Chen frowned, staying silent.

Deng Fangcheng didn't let up, "Hey, by the way, I heard you married Li Liyun, the goddess of our class? Haha, impressive stuff. I never thought you were the type to sponge off a woman, you really have some nerve."

As he spoke, Deng Fangcheng even gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up, openly slapping him in the face.

Jiang Chen grew more irritated, "I divorced her, this morning."

"Divorced?"

Deng Fangcheng was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "Did Li Liyun dump you, haha, serves you right, man. Someone like you, how could you be a match for Li Liyun?"

He laughed heartily, completely disregarding Jiang Chen's feelings.

After his laughter, he continued, "Oh right, did you see the group chat? We have a high school reunion tonight. You're not going to miss it, are you? Haha, you're definitely not going to show up. With your look, where would you get the nerve to go?"

A reunion?

Jiang Chen didn't speak. He hadn't been concerned with the class WeChat group these days and hadn't noticed.

As he was mulling it over, all of a sudden a fire-red sports car worth over a million pulled up beside Jiang Chen, and the stunningly beautiful Ye Jingyi poked her head out from inside, calling, "Jiang Chen, why did you come here? You made me look all over for you. Get in."

"Sure thing."

Jiang Chen nodded, turned around, and then as if he remembered something, he looked back at the somewhat shell-shocked Deng Fangcheng and smiled, "Oh Fangcheng, let me introduce you, this is my wife, just switched. She's pretty, isn't she?"

Afterwards, he patted his butt, got into the car.

Before leaving, he waved at Deng Fangcheng, "Oh yeah, about tonight's reunion, I'll be there. Bye now."

"Roar—"

With a roar, the red sports car left a trail of smoke behind, leaving a bewildered Deng Fangcheng in the dust.
