Chapter 10: Sister Cow b, Three days for two.
Chapter 10
Li Zhen still struggled, "President Lu, you have to pick a good day to get married, otherwise it's unlucky."
"I looked last night, today is the best date in the next six months."
Li Zhen: "..."
No wonder he could be vice president!
She was convinced!
In her bag was a marriage certificate, burning Li Zhen's heart with pain.
What a coincidence, the one who gave her the marriage certificate today was the same person who gave her the divorce certificate the day before yesterday.
The female colleague's eyes were wide, with an expression of "Sister, you're awesome, changing two in three days!"
Li Zhen thought Lu Yanming was really ruthless. He took her to the police station and didn't give her a moment to breathe or consider.
She also didn't know if there were any pitfalls in this fake marriage.
He said it was just her occasionally cooperating to act, the marriage certificate was a prop for him to deal with his family, it had no constraints or obligations for her.
Li Zhen was still uneasy. After dealing with Lu Yanming for two days, she was already afraid of him, always feeling like he was plotting something bad to trap her.
As she walked, her head suddenly bumped into a human wall.
"What are you thinking? Not looking where you're going?" Yu Sheng's icy voice fell.
Li Zhen looked at the man in front and rubbed her forehead, it really hurt.
Yu Sheng's suit today was all black, with a crisp white shirt inside, very fitting, the black and white perfectly set off his handsome and cold arrogance.
"Does it still hurt?" Yu Sheng sighed lightly and reached out to rub Li Zhen's head.
Li Zhen took a step back to dodge his touch, looked up at the floor, it was the advertising department, she didn't go to the wrong place, "If you have anything to do in the advertising department, you can find our director or manager. I'm going in first."
Li Zhen wanted to get around Yu Sheng, but he blocked her way, "It's Dad's birthday banquet today, he wants us to go back to the Li family mansion for dinner."
Li Zhen paused, "I'm not going back, you don't need to take care of Li's affairs anymore, and don't call him Dad anymore."
She was an illegitimate daughter. At her father Li Yinnan's previous birthday banquets, he practically forced her to hide, unwilling to let her appear at any important Li family occasion.
This time it wasn't that his conscience was awakened, Li Zhen knew, it was because of Yu Sheng.
A year ago, Li Zhen had a secret wedding and got a certificate, Li Yinnan got the news from somewhere, and angrily told her to bring her secret husband home, demanding they divorce immediately.
But when Li Yinnan saw Yu Sheng, his attitude changed dramatically.
It was then that Li Zhen realized that Yu Sheng, who she had been dating for years while working at Honghai, was actually the eldest son of the prominent Jin Cheng Yu family.
The Jin Cheng Yu family.
Even the oblivious Li Zhen knew these four words represented boundless wealth and reverberating power.
Li Yinnan often said things about social circles in her ear, saying the Li family was a prestigious family in Jin Cheng, saying Li Zhen was unruly and disgraced the Li family. But after seeing Yu Sheng, he said she was destined for good fortune, and could connect the prominent Li and Yu families through marriage.
Li Zhen didn't understand anything about social circles or prominent families, she just felt that Yu Sheng's name was enough for Li Yinnan to stop interfering in her marriage, which was good.
But now, she and Yu Sheng were divorced, nothing mattered anymore.
Yu Sheng: "It wasn't Dad who asked us to go back, it was Grandfather. His health hasn't been good lately, he probably misses you."
Li Zhen pursed her lips, "Okay, I know. I'll go back myself, and I'll tell him not to contact you again in the future."
After speaking, Li Zhen entered the office.
Li Zhen's mother passed away when she was too young to remember. She lived with her grandparents since she was little. When she was twelve, her grandmother passed away, and her grandfather's health suddenly deteriorated.
Her grandfather was taken back to the Li family mansion by Li Yinnan to be cared for.
Since then, she always lived on campus, rarely going to the Li family.
She didn't care about anyone in the Li family, except for her grandfather who raised her.
If her grandfather asked her to go back, she didn't want to defy his wishes. It was just right, she also wanted to tell her grandfather about her divorce from Yu Sheng in person.

After work, Li Zhen took a taxi to the Li family.
The Li family was located in a villa area near the west gate of Jin Cheng, secluded amid the hustle and bustle.
The front yard of the villa was extremely lively at this time, with elegant Western food, elaborate atmospheric lights, and waiters carrying trays of wine coming and going.
Li Zhen went in, completely uninterested in the lively front yard, and walked into the villa, wanting to go upstairs to the third floor to find her grandfather, but ran headlong into Li Yinnan's daughter Li Yanran.
Li Yanran was wearing an extravagant evening gown, her made-up face revealing a hint of disdain, "What are you doing here?"
Li Zhen had always been too lazy to pay attention to her, and continued upstairs.
In the past, if Li Zhen didn't respond to Li Yanran's words, Li Yanran would have exploded, but this time she just coughed and unnaturally asked, "How come it's just you alone? Where's Brother Yu Sheng?"
"Brother Yu Sheng?" Li Zhen couldn't help but stop and laugh, "You're so intimate calling him that, your tone is full of affection, I wonder, do you have your eye on your sister's husband?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! How could I possibly..." With Li Zhen bluntly and rudely pointing out her inner thoughts, Li Yanran's face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
The next second, she glared at Li Zhen angrily again, "Don't think everyone is a slut like your mother, seducing someone else's husband!"
Li Zhen laughed breezily, "Last time in the backyard, you took the initiative to throw yourself at Yu Sheng and he pushed you away, you looked pretty slutty too."
"You...saw that?" Li Yanran's face instantly turned white.
"It's not quite right to say I saw it, I filmed it." Li Zhen leisurely raised her eyebrows, slowly went upstairs, and said as she walked, "Next time your mouth is disrespectful to my mother again, I'll send that video of you to your fiancé."
The terrified Li Yanran was still stunned there, but Li Zhen had already gone upstairs.
Old Master Li was pottering with the flowers and plants on his balcony, his hair white but spirit vigorous. Seeing his granddaughter come, he quickly beckoned her over, "Zhen'er you're here? Come quick, look at the peonies your grandfather just planted!"
Li Zhen slumped into the wicker chair, "Grandpa, if you didn't say it was a peony, I really wouldn't have recognized it."
"You little rascal! Are you implying my skills are no good?" Old Master Li glared at her, "Why don't you come help me plant flowers more often!"
"Spare me, I'm all thumbs..." Seeing Old Master Li's mood seemed not bad, Li Zhen tentatively brought up, "Grandpa, I have something to tell you..."
Before Li Zhen could finish, her father Li Yinnan suddenly walked in, his voice sonorous: "I also have something to discuss with you."
Li Yinnan was over fifty, with a steady and dignified bearing, the shrewdness of a successful businessman after years steeping in the commercial world.
His gaze surveyed behind Li Zhen, didn't see Yu Sheng, his eyes dimmed slightly.
But it was only one or two seconds before Li Yinnan immediately regained his usual composure, "Yu Sheng didn't come today?"
Li Zhen: "He and I have already..."
But was interrupted by Li Yinnan before she could finish.
"Never mind, he's busy with work, I won't pry." Li Yinnan took out a document, "Look at this contract first."
Li Zhen took it doubtfully and flipped through it, her brows raised slightly, "Giving me 1.2% of Li's shares?"
Li Yinnan: "Read the prerequisite carefully, you have to give birth to the Li family's grandchild within a year."
