After Divorcing, She Became An Absolute Beauty

Panda Novel

"CEO Ji seems to be very forgetful. Other than Lili, do I have any other friends in Hong Kong city?" This was another important reason why Du Jiuyuan insisted on getting a divorce. She realized that she was getting very lonely.

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment. Ever since Du Jiuyuan asked for a divorce, she seemed to have changed into a different person altogether.

She used to be gentle, but now she is cold. Du Jiuyuan used to be a very easygoing person, but now she freely disses anyone that she wishes to.

"Well, the fact is that CEO Ji asked you to invite whomever you want. Don't you still have a lot of classmates from your university days?" Jiang Cheng's brain worked quickly and set his tone to be as friendly as possible.

"It's not necessary. You can take all these invitation cards back!" Du Jiuyuan was eating breakfast. She took a sip of milk thoughtfully and said those words.

"Okay. What else can I do for you, Madam?" Jiang Cheng did not dare to provoke Du Jiuyuan again, so he decided to take a step back.

"Do you know how to fix a water pipe?" Du Jiuyuan suddenly asked.

"Ah?" Jiang Cheng was stunned.

"No? Then I'll get someone to fix it. You can leave now!" Du Jiuyuan waved her hand and asked Jiang Cheng to leave.

"I know how to fix it. Let me do it!" Jiang Cheng realized that if anyone found out that he resorted to hiring a plumber for Du Jiuyuan, CEO Ji would definitely skin him alive.

Du Jiuyuan led the man to the kitchen. The water pipe in the sink drain was broken. She was about to ask someone to fix it after breakfast.

"Take off your coat. It will get dirty and you'd have to change it," Du Jiuyuan said slowly when Jiang Cheng was about to start fixing it.

Jiang Cheng looked at the water stains on the floor and then at his new suit. He agreed.

"Thank you, Mrs. Ji." As expected, Du Jiuyuan still treated him well despite her unpleasant attitude.

He took off his suit and handed it to Du Jiuyuan. He rolled up his sleeves and picked up the toolbox, looking like he was about to begin a very important task.

Du Jiuyuan took his jacket and walked into the bedroom. She took out his phone, guessed a password, and unsurprisingly unlocked the phone.

Sure enough, after so many years, there were only two passwords that Jiang Cheng had ever used.

Du Jiuyuan got up and returned to the living room. While watching Jiang Cheng's every move, she found Ji Jingchen's itinerary. He was going to attend a charity dinner tonight.

This was her only chance.

When Jiang Cheng finished fixing the water pipe, Du Jiuyuan had already put his phone back.

"It's fixed?"

"Yes, madam."

"Thank you."

"You're too kind, madam. If there's anything, just look for me."

Du Jiuyuan sent Jiang Cheng away. The moment the door closed, the smile on her face disappeared.

There was not much time left. Du Jiuyuan asked He Lili to use her fake ID in buying a plane ticket to the Western Coast. Next, she used her old phone number to call a taxi in order to reach South City. Upon arrival later, she would choose a few nearby provinces and cities for her next destination and to take a different taxi to get there.

For the convenience of traveling, Du Jiuyuan only carried a single backpack and pretended to be a backpacker.

There was some cash in it, enough for her to survive for a period of time.

When she went downstairs, the cab driver who would take her to South City was already waiting. She got into the car and took off. Moments later, Du Jiuyuan descended at a place where there were no traffic and surveillance cameras. Then, she asked the driver to continue driving to South City.

On the other hand, He Lili had prepared another driver that was waiting for Du Jiuyuan for a long time. Du Jiuyuan then made sure that there were no surveillance cameras around and got into the car and successfully left Hong Kong city.

The charity banquet that Ji Jingchen attended was nothing more than rich people who took out their collections and donated more than half of the auction proceeds. As it was an act of giving love to gain a good reputation in return, the bidding price was usually very high.

Ji Jingchen felt inexplicably annoyed. He came here today with a purpose. The last item was a set of jewelry from the Tang dynasty. There was a high price with no prospective buyers and he had intended to buy it for the wedding.

"Make a video call to madam." Ji Jingchen instructed Jiang Cheng to look for Du Jiuyuan.

"CEO Ji, I can't seem to connect to Madam's phone."

"Hello, the number you have dialed is not reachable. Please try again later." Ji Jingchen held his phone tightly, ready to crush it.

"Help me find someone." Ji Jingchen dialed another number, and the other side answered quickly.

"I'm a criminal police officer, not a private detective," Gu Xingchen, who was busy with his own tasks on the other end of the phone, said snappily.

"I need you to look for Du Jiuyuan."

"Got it." Gu Xingchen was stunned for a second. Then, he said something in particular and hung up.

"Madam is missing? How can that be? CEO Ji, are you thinking too much? Perhaps madam's phone is out of battery?" Jiang Cheng was a little puzzled when he heard Ji Jingchen make such a big fuss.

"She was fine when I went to send her the invitation. I even helped her fix the water pipe." Jiang Cheng paused and added.

"You helped her fix the water pipe? What did she say when you did that?" Ji Jingchen trusted his instincts that there was something amiss.

"She didn't say anything. She even handed me a glass of water. Everything was very normal.." Jiang Cheng paused before adding. "Could it be that the water pipe is broken again? Perhaps madam sent someone to fix it and something happened after?"
