After the divorce, the CEO forced me to have his child.

Chapter 289 Unable to Calm Down

Since Zheng Yuanxi had found Wen Ya, she naturally didn't intend to take action herself. Wen Ya also saw through Zheng Yuanxi's intentions. On one hand, she felt resentment, but on the other hand, she had to cooperate. She pretended to be concerned and said, "But Yuanyuan, given how intelligent He Yi is, I'm worried that he will eventually find out that you told his sister this information?"

"It's alright, what can he do even if he finds out?" Zheng Yuanxi smiled.

"That's true. He was angry about everything you did to Gu Zhiyao before, but he still forgave you. Yuanyuan, why is he always like this? You said the other day that he doesn't love you as much anymore, and that he can't let go of Gu Zhiyao. But why does he always tolerate and condone your actions that hurt Gu Zhiyao? Is he mentally ill? Is he deliberately using you to punish Gu Zhiyao?"

"Maybe he feels guilty towards me, and that makes him feel better?" Zheng Yuanxi smiled.

"That's possible. In that case, go ahead and deal with Gu Zhiyao. After all, they owe you this!" Wen Ya's eyes were filled with malice.

Zheng Yuanxi remained silent, her heart filled with renewed rage and hatred.

That afternoon, she took the recording to He hope.

She didn't directly reveal that Yifei liked Gu Zhiyao, but instead focused on the child.

He hope's reaction after listening to the recording was predictable.

She stared intently at Zheng Yuanxi and asked, "Yuanyuan, where did you get this recording? Are you sure the conversation in it is between Ayi and Yifei, and that every word is true and not fabricated?"

"No, sis, I heard it with my own ears. This noon, Yi and I were in the lounge, and we had a bit of an argument about Grandma. Yi went out to the terrace to smoke, and after I calmed down, I didn't want to fall out with him, so I decided to go out and find him. Who knew I would overhear what Yifei said to him. I was afraid you wouldn't believe me, so I just turned on my phone and recorded the conversation. I only found out today that Yifei... actually likes Gu Zhiyao!"

Zheng Yuanxi looked genuinely attentive, subtly observing He hope.

Then she continued, "Sister, I wouldn't have bothered you if I hadn't had to. I didn't expect Yifei to be so determined to help Gu Zhiyao. You know how much effort I put into getting this child. Although the methods were a bit underhanded, Yifei and I gave Gu Zhiyao a lot of benefits back then. This plan was originally Yifei's idea, and I didn't want to put him in a difficult position, so I had to agree. I didn't like this child at first, because his existence constantly reminded me of what Yifei had done with other women, that he no longer belonged to me, and that our love and marriage were no longer perfect."

It took me a whole year to let go of this resentment and treat Chenchen as my own. As he grew older and became more adorable, and so filial, I completely accepted him as my own son and forgot he was Gu Zhiyao's son with A-Yi! Who knew Gu Zhiyao would come back and try so hard to take Chenchen away from me? Sister, I hope you can persuade Yifei not to do this. I know he's kind-hearted, but we're family! Besides, he's so upright; what if he gets used? In the end, it won't just hurt us, it will hurt him too!

She didn't mention at all how much Tan Yifei liked Gu Zhiyao, but every word she said seemed to be a reminder of how infatuated Tan Yifei was with Gu Zhiyao.

He hope's face was extremely pale, and she even clenched her fists tightly. Then, she dialed a number and said, "Go and find out about Yi Fei's situation in Canada over the past few years! Especially the photos of him frequently with a young woman and a little girl who looks about four years old. I need to see them today!"

The other party replied "okay".

He hope hung up the phone, calmed himself down, and said to Yuan Yuan, "Yuan Yuan, don't worry, if this is true, I won't let Yi Fei do anything reckless. I'm sorry."

"Sister, please don't say that. It has nothing to do with you. Besides, I don't blame Yifei. He's young and kind-hearted. He was taken advantage of without even realizing it."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him!" Originally, He hope had already developed a sense of rejection towards Zheng Yuanxi because of her affair, but seeing Zheng Yuanxi say those words with such sorrow and sadness just now, she couldn't help but feel pity for her again.

She's a woman too. To accept her husband's child with another woman and treat that child as her own—that takes immense magnanimity and forbearance, yet Zheng Yuanxi did it! Zheng Yuanxi's love and care for Chenchen are evident to all, so at this moment, He hope completely forgave Zheng Yuanxi and felt great sympathy for her.

She couldn't help but comfort her, saying, "Yuanyuan, Ayi has seen all the hardships you've endured. He's always protected you because he loves you. You should trust him. As for Grandma, I'll have a good talk with her. Everything she does is for Ayi. Sometimes she might say things that upset you, but don't take it to heart."

“I won’t, sister. I know Grandma is doing this for our own good. Ayi has told me a lot about how Grandma educated and raised him when he was young. He and Grandma have spent a lot of precious time together. Besides, Grandma is getting old, and every day she lives is one day less. How could I hold a grudge against her? I went through so much trouble to get IVF, despite my parents’ objections, because I didn’t want to make things difficult for Ayi or upset Grandma. She is Ayi’s biological grandmother, which means she is my closest relative.”

These words naturally moved He hope deeply, making her even more convinced that her younger brother was the perfect choice for her.

Having achieved her goal, Zheng Yuanxi bid farewell and left.

He hope had something on her mind, so she didn't keep her. As soon as Zheng Yuanxi left, she continued to order people to investigate the relationship between Yi Fei and Gu Zhiyao. Originally, she planned to call He Yi, but she held back and waited for the investigation results.

In the evening, the results finally came out!

Photos of Tan Yifei and Gu Zhiyao together were sent to He hope via email.

Even though the two did not engage in any physical intimacy, the angles of several photos clearly showed Tan Yifei's deep affection and infatuation with Gu Zhiyao. When He hope saw these photos, his mind was in a whirl.

She had been through it all and knew exactly what her son's expressions and demeanor meant!

She finally got through to He Yi on the phone.

"Ayi, do you know about Yifei and Gu Zhiyao? Does he like Gu Zhiyao? And really like her? When did he start to become infatuated with Gu Zhiyao?"

He Yi on the other end of the phone froze immediately, and after a long while, he spoke, "Sister, where did you hear this news from?"

"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me if it's true? Has Yifei fallen in love with that Gu Zhiyao?"

"Sister, please calm down."

"I can't calm down! How can I calm down!"

"Sister, let's talk face to face."

"Okay. Come here."

He hope has a fixed office in the group, and she has been busy here recently. Her office is only one floor away from He Yi's, so the siblings will meet soon.
