A Delightful Marriage with Twins

Chapter 124: 33. I’m not like you (Chu Piaoyun)

He Yi admired Yi Liangze’s efficiency. In just a short week, he sent people to complete the renovation of the fitness club and successfully opened the business.

It was said that the business day was unprecedented, and people came to congratulate him in an endless stream. He Yi did not go to the scene. She only took the time to watch the live video. It was indeed very lively.

This fitness club was the private property that He Hanlin had given to He Yi. It was under her name. However, the opening of the fitness club was in the name of Yi Liangze. It was announced to the public that it was Yi Liangze’s private property, just like the Banquet.

With the golden name of the CEO of Kai Kun, the business of the fitness club was guaranteed.

He Yi accepted all of his thoughtfulness and his kindness. She did not waste her energy or effort. She waited for the fitness club to open, and the business was very prosperous.

Of course, this gym was not for profit, but for the sake of improving her health. All the professional fitness managers sent by Yi Liangze were excellent leaders in the fitness industry with high fees.

After the gym opened smoothly, He Yi, the real boss, stepped into it for the first time and patronized it as an ordinary customer.

The floor was more than 500 square meters, covering all the common fitness programs. There was also a special swimming zone upstairs.

The head waiter enthusiastically explained the fitness programs to He Yi, “Most of the women have a cold uterus, so they can come here frequently to sweat! The sweat lodge is decorated luxuriously and elegantly, using environmentally-friendly materials. The air quality has been tested by an authority, and this is the test certificate!”

He Yi nodded in satisfaction and praised, “Not bad!”

“And here, in the yoga room, women often practice yoga to shape their bodies and increase the flexibility of their bodies! Miss, your body is very beautiful. Practicing yoga can make your temperament more outstanding...”

He Yi nodded as she listened. She felt that the entire fitness club was fully equipped and the materials used for the decoration were exquisite. All of them had the air quality inspection certificate from the authorities, which dispelled the customers’ concerns about whether the newly renovated club had excessive harmful gases.

In addition, all the sports that could be found in the fitness club were available here. It was indeed an excellent place for exercise. In her spare time, she would come here to exercise for an hour every day. If she persisted in it for a long time, her weak constitution should be able to improve.

......

Finally, the foreman took her to the swimming pool upstairs and explained the various benefits of swimming.

The foreman was very happy when He Yi kept nodding her head, showing a satisfied smile from time to time – This job was satisfactory again!

Just when the head waiter thought that He Yi would sign the gym membership card, her phone rang.

He Yi took a look and saw that it was Chu Piaoyun calling. She was a little surprised. She did not expect that Chu Piaoyun, who had always been proud of her status, would take the initiative to call her.

After hesitating for a moment, He Yi picked up the call. “Hello?”

There was a long silence on the phone before Chu Piaoyun’s usual arrogant voice rang out. “Can we meet?”

“I’m sorry, I’m very busy!” He Yi rejected her without hesitation.

Fang Yuan had been arrested, and all the evidence pointed to her. It proved that Fang Yuan was the employer who had hired the assassins behind the scenes. She was in a very bad situation. With regards to this case, He Yi was very certain that she would win. If one did not want others to know, one could only do so when there was nothing else to do. Since Fang Yuan had done it and was caught, being sentenced would be her inevitable end.

Chu Tianyi was not in danger. In the end, he did not go to jail. Meanwhile, Fang Yuan was going to taste the prison rice that her cousin did not get.

The person who was killed by the car was Zhuo Hongzhao’s wife.He Yi held Zhuo Hongzhao’s trump card firmly in her hands. With her backing, as the family member of the deceased, Zhuo Hongzhao would do his best to pursue criminal accountability from the murderer.

Therefore, Fang Yuan would not be able to escape this calamity.

Even if Empress Chu was extremely capable, she probably would not be able to use it now.

He Yi did not expect Chu Piaoyun to give her a call. She did not think that Chu Piaoyun’s call would be able to save or change anything. It could only give her a chance to retaliate against Chu Piaoyun. It was useless, yet she still had to do it. Wasn’t this a waste of time and asking for humiliation? How could a smart woman like Chu Piaoyun make such a mistake?

However, she had overlooked the fact that Chu Piaoyun was also a mother. Her beloved daughter was in prison, and her pride was nothing compared to her daughter’s freedom. Even though she knew that it was useless, she still couldn’t help but want to give it a try.

Hearing He Yi’s unhesitating rejection, Chu Piaoyun couldn’t help but be stunned. But she no longer had the advantage of being arrogant, and she could not just smash the phone like that.

He Yi heard the sound of teeth grinding over the phone, and she patiently waited for the other party to smash her teeth and swallow her pride.

Finally, Chu Piaoyun suppressed her anger and displeasure. She gritted her teeth until they were sore, but she finally changed to a polite tone, and said, “I have ordered the best coffee at the Red House restaurant and waiting for you. Come over! ... take it as a reward for my respect!”

*

Since Chu Piaoyun had already thrown away her arrogance, He Yi had no choice but to go on the date.

She was not afraid of Chu Piaoyun’s tricks, because, with Chu Piaoyun’s current status, she did not dare to do anything to her.

Even though she was very confident, He Yi still sent a text message to Yi Liangze: “Empress Chu asked me to have coffee at the Red House, I’m going to go on the date!”

Soon, Yi Liangze replied: “Be careful! I’ll be there soon!”

He Yi smiled slightly, her heart sweet and warm. In the end, he was still worried about her and insisted on escorting her. She did not know what he was busy with, but in his heart, her position was the most important. No matter what he was busy with, he could put it aside for her.

After hanging up the phone, He Yi heaved a sigh of relief, feeling extremely relaxed.

The foreman had already handed over the fitness contract and asked considerately, “Miss, please sign the contract! The shortest is one year, and the longest is five years. If you persevere, you would see the huge changes in your body!”

“Yes,” He Yi agreed. “I think so too!” However, she gently pushed away the contract that the foreman handed over and said, “But I don’t need to sign this thing when I come here to train!”

“Why?” The foreman was dumbfounded and expressed his confusion.

“Because...” He Yi was in a great mood. Her smile was extremely beautiful, causing the foreman to stare blankly. “I’m the boss of this club! My name is He Yi!”

*

My name is He Yi!

When He Yi announced this name in a high-profile manner, she carried an indescribable pride. Today, she was finally able to have a foothold in the business world of Yun City. At the same time, she had successfully revived all the businesses that her father had left to her.

Once upon a time, the VIP building had fallen into the hands of the Chu family. Formerly, Fu Xing and the fitness club had been left empty and full of cobwebs. Now, they were all bursting with vitality and had become profitable industries with unlimited development potential.

He Yi’s efforts were not in vain. She was deeply proud and did not disappoint her father’s expectations. Today’s fruitful results were the return of her hard work. Now that she enjoyed the fruits, she felt at ease.

Under her insistence, Fu Xing developed from ruins to making a lot of money daily. There was also a chemical additive made for 3A leather, which was the patent invention of her and Zhuo Hongzhao. The patent alone was immeasurable, and the annual dividend was hundreds of millions.

As the patent was put into use by more and more Leather factories, she and Zhuo Hongzhao’s wealth would increase exponentially.

Under such circumstances, she was extremely confident. She no longer had to worry that she would fall back into the poverty of the past and be separated from her children because of livelihood issues.

Yi Liangze was in charge of the operation of the gym. She finally nodded her head and allowed him to help, how could he not do his best?

This was almost the only opportunity Yi Liangze could find to help her! She let go at the right time, and the man was grateful.

Under such circumstances, He Yi gave up her position as the CEO of Rong Yi in time. She felt that since she had invested in Kai Kun, she should let Yi Liangze help her manage Rong Yi! Although he could not personally manage the development of the subsidiary company, Yi Liangze would send the most professional and cutting-edge talent to manage Rong Yi. She believed in Rong Yi’s development prospects, and she only needed to sit and receive the dividends.

He Yi’s health wasn’t very good and she withdrew in time taking only what she deserved. She not only protected her career but also didn’t overwork her health.

“We’re here!” Ji Xueshan announced. “Sister He, I’ll go in with you!”

He Yi glanced at Ji Xueshan and nodded. “Okay!”

Empress Chu was not only crafty but also vicious and merciless. It was better for her to be careful.

After the incident with the cold medicine that day, when Yi Liangze had reprimanded Ji Xueshan, He Yi had apologized to Ji Xueshan on his behalf. Ji Xueshan, on the other hand, seriously apologized to her. “Young master Yi’s anger is reasonable! I was indeed careless! Fortunately, you’re not pregnant. Otherwise... Nothing I do will be able to make up for the mistake I made!”

He Yi felt even more touched when she saw Ji Xueshan’s deep sense of righteousness. “Xueshan, it’s my fortune to have you by my side!”

Ji Xueshan curled her lips slightly. “Let’s get out of the car. Don’t let Empress Chu wait for too long!”

He Yi shook her head lightly and said mischievously, “Let her wait a little longer. There’s no rush! We sisters can talk till later!”

*

The coffee went cold and was made hot again! But He Yi did not appear. Chu Piaoyun got impatient.

If it were in the past, she would have left with a flick of her sleeves. How could she accept this kind of irritation? Or rather, she would not have lowered herself to ask He Yi to meet her. It had always been others who chased after her to curry favor with her. When did she end up taking the initiative to meet a Junior? Moreover, it was He Yi, whom she had always looked down on the most, whom she still had to wait for here for a long time.

She picked up her phone a few times and put it back again! Even though she was impetuous, Chu Piaoyun was still old and experienced. She knew that there were some things she could do. The more anxious she appeared, the more likely the other party would be ready to into her trap.

Just as Chu Piaoyun’s patience was about to reach its limit, He Yi finally came late.

He Yi brought her female bodyguard. She looked very good and was in a good mood.

Under the guidance of the waiter, He Yi found Chu Piaoyun’s seat and smiled politely. “Chairman Chu.”

Chu Piaoyun was furious. Seeing that He Yi had finally arrived, she attacked with a cold smile, her scolding shot out like a barrage of bullets. “You’re too arrogant. Do you know what it means to respect your elders? To be punctual, keep promises, and have good manners? After marrying into the Yi family, you’ve become more and more spoiled by Yi Liangze!”

No one would be too happy if they were scolded the moment they were seen. He Yi did not pretend to be magnanimous and her face turned cold on the spot. She did not sit down and just stood there looking down at Chu Piaoyun with a sneer, she did not show any signs of weakness and retaliated, “I only respect my elders who deserve my respect. Those old and disrespectful people with evil thoughts and despicable actions do not deserve my respect! As for keeping the appointment... I don’t seem to have agreed to meet you at a specific time! Moreover, you were the one who wanted to meet me. I originally didn’t have the time to meet you, but you kept pestering me and even risked your respect to beg me. I had no choice but to give you respect. Logically speaking, you should be grateful, but you blamed me for not keeping the appointment. That’s enough! Are you the one who doesn’t have manners, or am I the one who doesn’t have manners? As for Yi Liang choosing to spoil me... He’s my husband. He likes to spoil me, so what can you do about it? If you think that he’s like your nephew, listening to your incitements, beating me, scolding me, and framing me, I’m afraid you’re mistaken! In this lifetime, he will never listen to you!”

“Ha!” Ji Xueshan, who was behind He Yi, laughed. She even secretly gave He Yi a thumbs up.

Chu Piaoyun was about to go crazy from anger. She had been the sole ruler of the world for so many years. Who would not give her some face when they saw her? Who would dare to be so impudent in front of her? Yet He Yi dared to provoke her, not giving her any respect at all. She slammed the table and stood up. She could not take it anymore. “He Yi, don’t go too far!”

“Chairman Chu, did you look for me just to quarrel with me?” He Yi blinked her eyes and reminded her out of kindness.

After He Yi’s reminder, Chu Piaoyun finally remembered the reason for this visit. Thinking of Fang Yuan, who was now in prison, most of her anger and resentment was instantly extinguished. She felt awkward and was momentarily speechless.

“If you only looked for me to quarrel with, tell me the truth. I don’t have time to attend to you!” He Yi sat directly opposite Chu Piaoyun and leisurely examined her newly-made nails. “If there’s anything else, just say it. I don’t have time for you to waste!”

Chu Piaoyun was about to blackout from anger. She sneered, “He Yi, do you know who you’re talking to?”

The one thing she regretted the most in her life was underestimating He Yi. Why didn’t she let He Yi die in prison back then?

It was a pity that there was no medicine for regret in the world. Otherwise, many people would have been poisoned by the medicine. He Yi was the first to want to take the medicine. How could she have been blind to marry Chu Tianyi, that ingrate, and not only did she harm herself, but she also harmed her father?

“Of course, I know!” In the face of Empress Dowager Chu’s usual arrogance, He Yi scoffed. “You are the mistress of Wanfang, the Honorable Empress Dowager Chu! Although you are no longer the same as you were in the past, no longer the wild girl who carried bamboo baskets all over the mountains to hunt for pigs and grass, and no longer the dirty girl who would feel that she found a treasure to roast and eat even when she caught a poisonous snake or rat! You are also no longer the poor girl who did not attend a day of school and asked her brother to help with her homework until late at night! The lowly you of the past has already been forgotten by the world, and now you are as noble as a servant. How can I not know who I am talking to?”

Chu Piaoyun’s entire body trembled, and it was as if her entire body had been hit by a heavy stick, and she was on the verge of collapsing. Her past life of poverty was almost the greatest humiliation of her life. She even dreamed of erasing that experience. She was caught off guard by someone (and the person she hated the most and looked down on the most). She was simply caught off guard and was almost unable to defend herself.

Ji Xueshan was also a little surprised. She had no idea that Chu Piaoyun had such a poor and lowly childhood. For a moment, her eyes widened, and looked at Chu Piaoyun as if she was a precious animal.

“Slut!” Chu Piaoyun finally broke through. Her inferiority complex made her angry out of embarrassment, then, she cursed, “How dare you laugh at me? What right do you have to laugh at me? No matter how I was in the past, I am now the mistress of Wanfang, the noble lady of Yun City’s upper-class society! You must be jealous!”

He Yi had been waiting for her to say this. She smiled faintly and pushed the cart before the horse. “That’s right! No matter how badly I was harmed by you and your nephew, now my career and marriage are both fruitful, and my husband is spoiling me. If you don’t like it, then you’re just jealous!”

“...” Chu Piaoyun was almost choked to death by her.

Ji Xueshan covered her mouth and chuckled again.

“Of course, I’m different from you!” He Yi knew that Chu Piaoyun’s armor had been broken, revealing her fragile original form. That was the ugliness that the other party did not want to expose the most. She grabbed her tail fiercely, beating up the dog that had fallen into the water. “Your inferiority is inborn. My inferiority is caused by you and your nephew! So, no matter how high your status and identity are, you still can’t get rid of the inferiority in your bones! And as long as I take down you and your nephew, I’ll still be the golden rose that bloomed in the upper-class circles of Yun City.”

“Clang!” Chu Piaoyun swept the coffee on the table onto the ground. Due to her anger, her entire body was trembling nervously. “B*tch... you’re full of nonsense...”

She seemed to want to pounce on He Yi and tear her apart. However, when she saw Ji Xueshan staring at He Yi, she realized that if she attacked, she would only embarrass herself even more.

“How boring!” He Yi stood up and did not even look at Chu Piaoyun anymore. She said coldly, “If I had known that you were so unreasonable, I would not have wasted my time coming here!”

“Stop right there!” Chu Piaoyun shouted at the top of her voice. “If Fang Yuan is imprisoned, I will not let you off!”

“Alright!” He Yi turned around, her face full of disapproval. “What other tricks do you have that you haven’t used? Use them all! I want to see just how many more despicable and unpleasant things you can do. You have to do it to the most disgusting extent to match your original lowly status!”

Chu Piaoyun finally pounced forward, but she was stopped by Ji Xueshan, who then pushed her onto the ground.

As the commotion was too loud, the waiter heard it and rushed over. He asked in a panic, “What’s wrong? Madam, let me help you up!”

Chu Piaoyun fell to the ground and got up with the help of the waiter. Her hair was disheveled and her shoulders were slanted. She looked as disheveled as she could be. She stretched out a slender finger and pointed at He Yi. “B*tch, just you wait! I will never let you off!”

“Then let’s create another car accident!” He Yi’s eyes lit up sharply, “Just like when your husband was killed by a car crash! Not only did you get rid of the thorn in your side, but you also got what you wanted. What a wonderful plan!”

“Ah!” Chu Piaoyun trembled again. The gaze she gave He Yi turned from anger to fear. She had no idea how the woman in front of her could see through everything. Those scars from a long time ago, those guilty things that had been buried for a long time, were exposed just like that. Every word was like a knife, stabbing fiercely at her most fatal point. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

He Yi’s lips curled slightly, saying, “Am I spouting nonsense? Oh, it’s nonsense! Then what are you so nervous about? I’ve always said that only thieves have a guilty conscience. Have you done anything to be guilty of?”

“B*tch, you can spout nonsense here?” Chu Piaoyun no longer bothered to plead on behalf of her daughter, and no longer bothered to negotiate a deal with He Yi. Right now, she only wanted to run away as fast as possible. “I don’t deal with lunatics! Get lost!”

Ji Xueshan stopped Chu Piaoyun and asked He Yi, “Should we keep her here and ask a few more questions? I can see that this old woman seems to have done a lot of bad things!”

“Help! Help!” Chu Piaoyun completely lost her skill and cried out.

Xiao Yu, the assistant who was waiting outside, quickly walked in and asked, “CEO Chu, what’s wrong?”

“Call the police!” Chu Piaoyun was so hysterical that she almost lost all her composure. “These two women beat and scolded me. They threatened me. I want to call the police!”

He Yi covered her mouth and laughed as if she had heard something interesting. She smiled and said, “Call the police? That’s great! I was just curious. You didn’t go to primary school or middle school. You didn’t even go to kindergarten. How did you get into university? Also, your husband’s car accident is very strange. There are many suspicious points. Should we investigate it again?”

Chu Piaoyun’s face turned from white to green. At this time, Xiao Yu was still urging him, “Director Chu, should we call the police?”

“Slap!” Chu Piaoyun was used to venting her anger. She slapped him and shouted at her assistant, “Idiot, why are you ignoring them? Let’s go!”

“Chairman Chu, take care! Watch your step and don’t slip again! If you mess up your appearance, people will think that you are still the crazy girl from the deep valley!” He Yi’s words were as sharp as a knife until they pierced through the last layer of Chu Piaoyun’s armor.

“B*tch... just you wait!” Chu Piaoyun shouted while running away.

Xiao Yu was completely stunned. He had probably never seen Empress Chu in such a sorry state. He looked at He Yi curiously. He did not know what He Yi had said or done to turn the noble Empress Chu into this state.

With doubts, Xiao Yu chased after her.

Ji Xueshan nodded her head in admiration. “Sister He, you are too amazing!”

He Yi smiled slightly. “Only when you know the enemy will you be able to fight a hundred battles without slackening! Empress Dowager Chu may seem noble and aloof, but she only had a jade-like beauty on the outside. Her past was her weakness, as well as the many dirty things she had done that could not be noticed in the light of day. If you were to reveal it to her out of the blue, it would be the same as peeling off her painted skin and revealing her true form! She wouldn’t be able to continue pretending.”

Her family was destroyed and she was imprisoned. This was all the fault of the Chu family! He Yi believed that Chu Piaoyun spared no effort in instigating Chu Tianyi to deal ruthlessly with the He family.

Now, it was time for Chu Piaoyun to taste the pain of having her family destroyed and her flesh and blood separated!
