After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 354: Fooled Again

Just like when they first set up the factory, as long as the channels could be opened, they were not afraid of failing to open up the market.

Because makeup products needed to be added, Zhi Xia stayed in Shenzhen for over three months before returning to Jincheng, while things over there had stabilized and Hu Zhou could finally come back, with only Wu Lei still over there keeping watch.

Zhi Xia and Hu Zhou also each gave 3% of their shares to Wu Lei, bringing his shareholding ratio up to 11%.

At the same time, Jiao Yan began to set up an R&D department. After all, if they wanted to go far in the long run, they couldn't rely solely on the formulas Zhi Xia gave them.

Of course, because Jiao Yan mainly sold pure plant skincare, the R&D personnel in the R&D department still had to have a certain pharmacological knowledge.

Jincheng.

Not far from Pei JianGuo's house in a prosperous small Western-style building.

Gao Second Sister looked at Pei JianGuo distressedly with several scratches on his face, carefully helping him apply medicine with cotton swabs, "JianGuo Brother, you can't go on like this. Look at your face scratched up, it's killing me."

Pei JianGuo sat on the sofa with red eyes and suddenly grabbed Gao Second Sister's wrist. Looking up at her, his eyes were full of deep affection. "I can't stand that shrew anymore. Qingcheng, I want a divorce from her. After I get a divorce, will you marry me?"

Ever since their chance meeting on the street two years ago, after Gao Qingcheng saw his misery, she not only did not ridicule him, but was caring and gentle to him everywhere.

Pei JianGuo, who felt abandoned by everyone, was very moved. Together with Gao Dalin's deliberate ingratiation, he quickly became friends with Gao Dalin and naturally also got close to Gao Second Sister.

The constant contradictions with Lu Keqin made him envy Gao Dalin for having a wife who regarded him as her sky. In fact, it was just a wife he had bought back at a high price.

Since he had spent a lot of money to buy her back, she was not much different from a purchased wife. In addition, Gao Dalin had made a fortune in the past two years and bought this small Western-style building in Jincheng, so she naturally did not dare to resist Gao Dalin.

Gao Dalin's caring comfort and deliberate provocation made him feel no affection for Lu Keqin, and now he hated her even more, erupting into battles every other three days.

And Gao Qingcheng took the opportunity to step in. She didn't need to do anything at all, just showing her distress was enough to move Pei JianGuo.

Although the two had never explicitly pierced the layer of propriety, ambiguous messages kept coming.

Pei JianGuo's sudden confession startled Gao Second Sister. Although she was delighted inside, she didn't show it on her face at all. On the contrary, she looked rather embarrassed.

Gao Second Sister hurriedly pulled her wrist back and retreated two steps. "JianGuo Brother, what are you doing? Just because you and my brother are on good terms, and I feel bad for you... I feel bad that you married a shrew, but you say this. If outsiders know about it, they'll think that I... that I'm shameless seducing a married man. How will others see me?"

After Gao Second Sister finished speaking, she ran away without giving Pei JianGuo a chance to react.

Upstairs, Gao Dalin happened to run into the angry and ashamed Gao Second Sister on the stairs. He immediately stared with round eyes, "Second Sis, you cried? What's wrong?"

"Brother, I'm fine. Just now a small flying insect got into my eyes by accident. I'm going back to my room to get it out."

Gao Dalin immediately asked his sister-in-law to help, then went downstairs himself. He even complained to Pei JianGuo, "This girl is so impulsive." Then he sighed again, "Alas, it is said that there are no perfect parents in the world, but seeing Second Sis like this, I feel so distressed too. JianGuo, don't you think we're so unlucky that the mistakes my parents made in the previous generation, we siblings have to pay for them all. I'm fine, I'm a grown man and can handle anything, but seeing Second Sis implicated and unable to find a decent family to marry into, this really hurts my heart. Several suitors have come, clearly just trying to take advantage of the bit of money we have now with ulterior motives. I don't dare marry Second Sis off to them!"

Gao Second Sister's rejection just now also discouraged Pei JianGuo, but Gao Dalin's words emboldened him again. "Dalin, others may not understand you, but their eyes are blind. I... I know what I'm saying is abrupt, but I really like Qingcheng. Can you persuade her to give me a chance?"

Initially, liking Gao Qingcheng was because in looks and temperament she bore great resemblance to Meiyun, easily arousing his longing for Meiyun.

But after two years, he realized clearly that he had genuinely fallen for Gao Qingcheng.

That shrew Lu Keqin was getting more and more excessive, and she couldn't even have a child. He already had Ping'an, so it must not be his problem, it could only be Lu Keqin's problem.

Even if they divorced, it could only be blamed on her being too difficult, Pei JianGuo thought.

Gao Dalin looked upstairs, feeling distressed yet awkward as he nodded. "You rascal, if it were anyone else saying this, I would've punched them long ago. But these past two years I've also seen that Second Sis does have feelings for you. It's just that you're already married. I feel bad for Second Sis too... She's so ill-fated..."

Pei JianGuo said he wanted a divorce, and almost no one was surprised. Wang Yue and Pei Shuangshuang were even very supportive.

In the past two years, it was Lu Keqin who had made them feel it the most.

Pei Yong was already thoroughly disappointed with this son, and didn't want to manage his affairs either. Lu Keqin hadn't left a good impression on him, and without a child binding them, he naturally couldn't let his heart soften.

From when Pei JianGuo brought up divorce, Lu's family came to make trouble every day. Later Pei JianGuo simply went into hiding and no one knew where he had hidden himself.

Lu's family found people to kick up a fuss at Pei JianGuo's company. Pei JianGuo seemed to have suddenly woken up and spent money to hire people to make trouble at Lu's father's company, even hiring a pregnant woman. This round of reputation smearing almost cost Lu's father, the most capable person in the Lu family, his job.

Of course, Pei JianGuo could not have come up with this himself. When it came to smearing reputations and making trouble, no one had better ideas than Gao Second Sister. The little tricks of the Lu family were simply not enough before her.

When Zhi Xia came back from Shenzhen, it was already March. By then, Pei JianGuo's matter had been sensational for half a month.

What she heard was only that Pei JianGuo was clamoring for a divorce. She didn't know about Gao Second Sister's meddling behind the scenes.

Since even Pei Yong wasn't getting involved, there was even less need for it to reach her.
