Rebirth: Divorcing the Billionaire
Chapter 113: Take Back the Company

Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Take Back the Company

Jian Xi was thrilled; it wasn’t often Si Yuhuan was forced to eat humble pie.

She had won the battle without spilling a drop of blood and even wrested Yaowang back. Grandfather truly was her god of wealth.

"Then why did you two argue? Was it because of that Jiang Qimeng woman again?" Grandfather frowned, his voice sharp with anger.

"No! It’s because I’m too famous now. He felt he’d lost face as a man and was jealous!"

Jian Xi winked playfully. Si Yuhuan, his face dark, couldn’t be bothered to respond to her.

This only further convinced Grandfather that his grandson was indeed being petty.

"Hahaha, is that so? Fine, very good! Now that you understand the importance of marital harmony, not only Yaowang but also the shares I hold will be yours in the future."

Si Junyan, accompanied by Jiang Qimeng, walked in just then and happened to overhear this.

Jiang Qimeng’s pretty little face instantly drained of all color.

"Grandfather, what are you saying?" Si Junyan burst out, incensed. "What do the Si Family shares have to do with an outsider like her? Even if you were to give them away, give them to Big Brother, or to me, or to any Si Family member—that would be better than letting her benefit!"

"Junyan!" Si Yuhuan’s cold gaze swept towards him. As his eyes passed over Jiang Qimeng, a flicker of guilt crossed his face, but he still issued a warning, "The shares Grandfather holds are his to give to whomever he wishes. Also, Jian Xi is my wife. Do I need to remind you again and again how you should behave towards her?"

Si Junyan was so furious he felt his head might explode, but he didn’t dare retort. "Fine! If there’s no place for me in the Si Family anymore, can’t I just leave?"

He slammed the door and stormed out. Jiang Qimeng stood rooted to the spot, unsure whether to advance or retreat. "Grandfather, I’m sorry," she said. "I heard you had returned and wanted to visit. Junyan is impulsive, and I’m afraid he might do something foolish. I’ll go check on him."

With that, she hurried after Si Junyan.

Old Master Si instructed Housekeeper Qi, "Throw out everything she brought."

Si Yuhuan furrowed his brow. "Grandfather, isn’t that going too far?"

"Too far? With Jian Xi as my granddaughter-in-law, I can’t stand any Tom, Dick, or Harry around. The Si Family’s gates aren’t open to just anyone."

Jian Xi was deeply touched.

In her previous life, her relationship with Grandfather hadn’t been this good, and the affection she received was limited. But now, the selfless love and indulgence Grandfather showed her inevitably made her feel a bit guilty.

He was giving her his heart and soul, while she was plotting to tear out the heart of the Si Family.

Thinking about it, it really was somewhat inhumane.

"Alright, Grandfather, don’t be angry anymore."

Grandfather raised his chin haughtily. "You’re lucky you came to your senses in time; otherwise, you would have driven me to an early grave."

After shooing Jian Xi and Si Yuhuan away, Old Master Si allowed a rare smile to touch his lips.

Housekeeper Qi, who had been observing, remarked clearly, "Young Master now understands affection and has begun to protect Young Mistress."

"Sigh, I just hope there are no more twists and turns. I don’t know why, but I always feel like that girl Jian doesn’t love Yuhan, that little rascal, as much anymore."

"You’re probably mistaken?"

"Possibly!"

As soon as they stepped out the main door, Si Yuhuan grabbed Jian Xi’s arm, his breath catching sharply. "Relying on Grandfather’s support to take Yaowang away right in front of me—you’re quite pleased with yourself, aren’t you?"

"Not just that! I also drove Si Junyan away and made Jiang Qimeng jealous enough to die. I’m absolutely ecstatic right now. So what?"

Si Yuhuan gripped Jian Xi’s chin, forcing her to look at him. "What good do you think will come from provoking me?"

Jian Xi slapped his hand away. "Don’t forget, right now, you’re the one who needs me. Grandfather only recognizes me as his granddaughter-in-law. If you want me to cooperate and play along obediently, you’d better learn how to please me!"

"Heh!" Si Yuhuan laughed, his handsome face contorting into a sinister, terrifying demonic sneer.

"Jian Xi, you really know how to infuriate me!"

With that, he hoisted Jian Xi up and tossed her into the car.

Yan Qing stood nearby, not daring to approach. When Jian Xi looked at him for help, he turned and fled.

Jian Xi dared not struggle; her babies would be scared.

The doctor had told her not to make any large movements and to guard against overexcitement and recklessness.

"Si Yuhuan, you bastard, be careful!"

If anything happened to the babies, she’d make him pay!

Si Yuhuan, uncharacteristically compliant, gently placed her in the passenger seat.

Jian Xi was seething with indignation.

He floored the accelerator, and the car sped away from the Si Family Old Residence.

"Where are you taking me?" Jian Xi glared at him.

Every time she saw him, she acted like a touchy old hen, either shrieking or struggling. Si Yuhuan, frustrated, lit a cigarette. He had barely taken a puff when Jian Xi snatched it and tossed it out the open window.

"What are you doing?" he demanded, frowning in displeasure.

I’m pregnant, and you still dare to smoke? You’re really asking for it! Jian Xi fumed internally.

Aloud, she said, "My stomach feels upset, and the smoke makes me want to throw up."

"Troublesome!" Si Yuhuan exhaled deeply and then drove Jian Xi to the entrance of Yaowang, where he stopped.

Jian Xi was puzzled.

Inside, Li Bin had already led a group out to welcome them. "Welcome, Director Si, CEO Jian," they greeted.

Tsk, tsk!

Jian Xi couldn’t help but roll her eyes. This man changed allegiances so quickly! When Si Yuhuan confiscated Yaowang, she hadn’t heard a single shareholder or senior executive say a word in her defense.

As if reading her mind, Li Bin approached, nodding apologetically. "CEO Jian, I’m sorry. Director Si personally groomed me, so my actions are understandable. I hope you can appreciate that."

Now that his true allegiance was revealed, he didn’t bother hiding it.

It made her feel as if she were in the wrong for not understanding.

Jian Xi forced a smile. "No worries. Sooner or later, I’ll have my own company."

Though her words seemed directed at Li Bin, they were actually meant for Si Yuhuan.

Inside, employees bustled about, all remarkably busy. Li Bin explained, "After Phoenix Night, Director Si instructed us to prepare the exhibition according to your ideas. The past few days have yielded good results, especially in connecting with numerous domestic and international media outlets. Several high-end luxury companies have extended olive branches, hoping for co-branding partnerships with us. This is a significant boost for our entry onto the world stage."

It had to be said that with Si Yuhuan at the helm, Yaowang’s development didn’t just accelerate—it skyrocketed instantaneously.

"Did you bring me here just to show me how high you can soar using my shoulders as a stepping stone? Is this meant as a humiliation?" Jian Xi was still holding a grudge.

Si Yuhuan shot her a cool, indifferent look. "Cut the nonsense. Since you’re out, manage it properly and don’t embarrass me."

With that, he pushed her into an office where numerous documents were already prepared.

Li Bin assisted Jian Xi with the signings while Si Yuhuan stood by, idly fiddling with his phone.

During a brief pause, Jian Xi glanced at him. She couldn’t tell who he was messaging, but whatever it was made him furrow his brows, looking somewhat troubled.

"CEO Jian? This document needs to be signed on both sides."

Lost in thought, Jian Xi missed a signature, and Li Bin reminded her.

"Ah? Oh! Right." Jian Xi hurriedly signed the missed spot.

After a while, she had signed over twenty documents, and her hand ached.

It seemed being a boss wasn’t so easy. As the wealthiest man, how many documents did Si Yuhuan have to sign each day?

The secretary knocked and entered.

"CEO Jian, a couple outside claims to be your father and mother. What are your instructions?"

Jian Xi’s parents had suddenly returned from abroad and gone straight to Yaowang Group. Si Yuhuan personally escorted them to the office.
