Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance

Jiang Nian weighed his options and decided to maintain the status quo for now. He was already content; rushing ahead might easily lead to a fall.

He couldn’t afford to mess around anymore as another setback might break him.

After reviewing the matter, he realized he had explained almost everything he could. The rest wouldn’t affect the big picture.

For instance, he respects his teachers—nobody can criticize him for that.

It shows he values relationships deeply.

Secondly, he had been completely honest with Chen Yunyun. It shows he has humanity, and he didn’t force her into anything afterwards.

In all honesty, he can take setbacks.

As for Yu Zhiyi, they exchanged some conversation as classmates. Otherwise, they didn’t interfere in each other’s lives.

Moreover, it’s not like anyone random could have such exchanges with him; it was purely due to a series of reasons.

After all, President Jiang had long since locked away his heart from love.

The love game was offline now.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-October. The autumn mood thickened in Beijing, and Jiang Nian finally found a chance to be alone with Chen Yunyun.

"Going home?"

"Yes, my mom is going for a follow-up check." Chen Yunyun said, "I can’t help but worry, so I’m planning to go back and have a look."

"Oh, oh, is Wang Yuhe going?"

"No need, it’s just a minor matter." Chen Yunyun said, "Plus, it’s quite a hassle to come and go."

Having clarified the flight information, Jiang Nian immediately bought a ticket. He thought for a moment and checked Old Liu’s WeChat Moments.

Director Liu seemed to be doing well, frequently posting positive quotes.

He made a video call, "Teacher, do you know anyone at People’s Hospital?"

Old Liu was bewildered, reacting only after a while.

"People’s Hospital?"

Generally speaking, even a grade leader’s network isn’t particularly extensive; higher up in rank, the network is broader.

However, Old Liu was an exception.

Because the title "Southern Tiger" wasn’t earned lightly. As an advanced teacher, his subject-leading connections were typical.

But..... his father-in-law had extensive connections.

"Ah, I can ask around for you." Old Liu said, "Is it urgent? When do you need the contact?"

"It’s not urgent, it’s for a couple of days later."

"Alright, wait for my update." Old Liu was straightforward, being familiar with this rascal Jiang Nian.

"At latest, by tomorrow."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Jiang Nian pondered for a moment. His current standing was indeed mediocre, not making a mark at Beijing University.

There were plenty of entrepreneurial ventures happening, with rounds of financing being commonplace.

However, perhaps it’s time to make friends. Broaden horizons, learning would be easier that way.

In the afternoon, Old Liu returned the call.

After chatting with Jiang Nian, he introduced the vice-president and the department heads, who exchanged phone calls.

After hanging up, Jiang Nian clicked his tongue in wonder.

"A PhD?"

Meanwhile, Director Chen marvelled as well.

"A student who got into Qingbei a couple of years ago, and started a business as soon as he entered college. It’s really... quite a foundation."

Most people are blind men feeling an elephant when it comes to unfamiliar things.

It’s all up to imagination.

Jiang Nian found the PhD remarkable because he’d mostly coasted through school, and Director Chen felt the same way about Jiang Nian.

Still, it was just a small matter.

Hence, a phone call sufficed. There was no need to arrange a meeting or a dinner for formalities.

Two days later.

Jiang Nian drove to the airport, completed online check-in, and after security, went directly to the boarding gate to "coincidentally run into" her.

"Huh?"

"Yunyun, are you heading home too?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yunyun turned her head and couldn’t help but feel somewhat speechless.

"...Yes."

She knew Jiang Nian would be coming, so she didn’t resist. After all, if she had wanted to, she could have easily avoided mentioning it.

There were quite a few reasons.

Perhaps she didn’t want to return alone, or perhaps she thought the last time Jiang Nian met her parents went really well.

People are complex, not indifferent to the mundane.

On the plane, Jiang Nian paid someone next to Chen Yunyun to switch seats and watched a movie together.

Upon landing, they first went to register at the hotel.

As Chen Yunyun’s parents hadn’t yet arrived, they registered for one room, only during the elevator ride did Chen Yunyun start to feel nervous.

Her heart thumped heavily.

With a ding!

They reached the floor, and Jiang Nian glanced at Chen Yunyun. He pushed her small suitcase out first and casually asked.

"What are you nervous about?"

"Nothing....." Chen Yunyun pursed her lips; this wasn’t their first time sharing a room, but last time Wang Yuhe had been there too.

This time, it was just the two of them.

Yet, Chen Yunyun still didn’t quite understand Jiang Nian. Others might book hotel rooms for fun, but Jiang Nian books rooms merely to rest.

It was largely influenced by his classmate’s cleanliness.

If Jiang Nian invites her home, that’s when things could truly get dangerous. This detail is recorded in "Brother Jie Don’t."

.....

Night fell.

Jiang Nian finished his shower, working with the air conditioner running. After a while, Chen Yunyun emerged cautiously from her bath.

Her wet hair scattered over the blue towel draped on her shoulders.

"I... finished washing."

"Hmm, why not blow your hair?" Jiang Nian thought for a moment, stood up, and said, "Fine, I’ll help you dry it."

"Ah?"

"Oh, okay....." Chen Yunyun nodded, feeling bewildered; Jiang Nian didn’t seem as she imagined....

Lecherous?

Whirrr!!

The hotel’s hairdryer had low power; Jiang Nian held it for quite a while before finally drying the girl’s hair completely.

"What a lousy hotel."

Chen Yunyun: "...."

In South City, this hotel was already quite good. Even during non-holiday periods, it cost five to six hundred yuan per night.

She was about to say something but saw Jiang Nian leaning down.

"Yunyun."

"???"

The girl’s body instantly tightened, eyes flickering rapidly, but Jiang Nian merely tapped lightly on her lips.

"You can rest for a bit; I need to work for a while longer."

"Oh~."

Chen Yunyun sat at the bed’s edge, played on her phone for a while, muted it, and then turned her gaze to the TV.

"I’ll turn off the TV; it might disturb you."

"No need; it’s on for you." Jiang Nian waved, "You watch for a while, later I’ll join you."

TVs are seldom watched at home.

In the hotel.

Click!

Whoever invented TV dramas deserves praise; even the agricultural channel can be utterly engrossing.

If it were summer, with the air conditioner set to sixteen degrees, having iced cola in a hotel room while watching an episode of "Snow Leopard."

Hmm.....

After a while, Jiang Nian finished his work, closed his laptop, then went into the bathroom to freshen up and came out.

"Are you hungry?"

"No." Chen Yunyun shook her head.

She blinked, watching as Jiang Nian climbed onto the other side of the bed. Their closeness instantly renewed her tension.

Aren’t they turning off the lights?

Jiang Nian’s hand had already reached over, but it landed on her shoulder instead. He gently pulled her toward him and tilted his head to capture her lips.

The gentle, continuous kisses made Chen Yunyun somewhat bewildered.

Even her breathing became somewhat irregular. Some sounds, sharp and thin, began to unintentionally resonate.

She could hardly believe these strange yet shameful sounds were emerging from her throat.

Then, she was embraced.

Watching TV.

Chen Yunyun: "???"

Though she wasn’t entirely prepared, a moment ago, mentally, she’d settled in, not expecting Jiang Nian to hold back.

But...

The girl turned her head, glancing at Jiang Nian. He too turned, meeting her gaze with slight confusion.

"What’s wrong?"

"N-nothing." Curling up in his arms, Chen Yunyun quietly said, "Thank you."

In his eyes, there wasn’t any lust—just a touch of affection and cherishment.

"Hmm?" Jiang Nian was perplexed.

But no matter, he accepted. "It’s the least I could do, Yunyun; there’s no need for thanks between us."

"Okay."

Chen Yunyun, feeling drowsy, fell asleep in Jiang Nian’s embrace. It was the most peaceful sleep she’d had recently.

Jiang Nian watched "Snow Leopard" all night. Having said that, even without watching the beginning, the middle part alone was exhilarating.

The next day.

Jiang Nian accompanied Chen Yunyun to the city hospital. They met up with her parents, going upstairs for her mom’s follow-up.

They hadn’t arrived, but the calls had already been made.

This led Mrs. Chen to feel that this hospital’s check-up was exceptionally good; the doctors were serious and responsible.

The director even came, asked a round of questions before leaving.

Mr. Chen discerned some of the nuances but didn’t articulate them. He merely observed Jiang Nian more closely, also glancing at his daughter.

Hmm.....
