My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 543: Revised - 551 Wedding Invitation

However, seeing Xiao Yi Xun crying endlessly, Leng Yixiu eventually wavered and found Shi Yi’s phone number, dialing her number.

When the phone rang, Shi Yi had just finished her shower and walked out of the bathroom. Seeing that it was a call from Leng Yixiu, she hung up without a second thought.

She didn’t think Leng Yixiu would call for business this late at night. If it was for personal reasons, she had no obligation to answer. Although she couldn’t deny that she had once been a little smitten with this man, now that he had a fiancée, she certainly wouldn’t keep any ties with him.

As for Leng Yixiu’s fiancée, although she looked exactly like his late wife, she gave Shi Yi a strange feeling, as if something wasn’t quite right. And in fact, Shi Yi’s intuition was correct.

Gu Yilin had just returned home not long ago when she received a phone call.

Her eyes darkened, and she said in a low voice, "Is there something you need?"

"Can’t I just call you for no reason?" A man’s voice came from the other end. "How are things progressing?"

"Everything is going smoothly, except for some trouble with Leng Yixiu’s daughter."

"It’s just a four-year-old child, nothing to worry about. You just need to gain Leng Yixiu’s trust."

"Mm." Gu Yilin nodded, then suddenly remembered something and asked softly, "There’s something... I want to ask you. If... Leng Yixiu wants to take things further with me, what should I do?"

The man naturally understood what Gu Yilin meant, and a cold smile tugged at his lips. "If he wants it, you have to give it to him."

"But you only asked me to get close to Leng Yixiu and obtain internal information from Leng’s. You never said I had to sleep with him."

"But I also never promised you a clean exit."

"You!" Gu Yilin clenched her fists but couldn’t find words to retort.

"Miss Gu Yilin, since you agreed to cooperate with me, you should have expected this situation. Leng Yixiu is not a monk; naturally, he has needs. If you want to gain his complete trust, you’ll have to make some sacrifices."

"Aren’t you afraid I might walk away in the middle of this?"

"Ha ha... Would you? Think about yourself, and think about your mother. Would you let your mother end up dead on the streets?"

"Are you threatening me?"

"No, this isn’t a threat. I’m just negotiating. I’m a businessman. I spent a lot to make you look like Leng Yixiu’s late wife. You should at least let me recover my costs, don’t you think?"

"What grudge do you have against Leng Yixiu? Why do you want to go after him?" Gu Yilin asked the question in her heart.

"That, I can’t tell you for now. Just do your job well. Get close to Leng Yixiu, gain his trust, and find an opportunity to obtain valuable information."

After tossing out these words, the man hung up decisively, leaving Gu Yilin standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, furious and conflicted.

She was originally just an ordinary college student, planning to graduate peacefully, find a job, and live a tranquil life. But fate had never been on her side, simply because of her gambling-addicted mother.

Four years ago, her mother had racked up a huge debt and was nearly beaten to death by loan sharks, dragging her down with her. It was then that a man named Zheng Hao appeared, not only paying off all their debts but also treating them well.

However, nothing comes free in this world; everything has a price. That man saved them for one reason: she bore a seven-point resemblance to Leng Yixiu’s late wife.

To make her look even more like Leng Yixiu’s late wife, her face underwent numerous surgeries over the past four years, gradually becoming identical.

Additionally, Zheng Hao somehow got hold of video footage for her to mimic the late wife’s every gesture and expression. She spent four years like this, eventually unable to distinguish whether she was Gu Yilin or Leng Yixiu’s late wife—Lin Yixun.

...

That night, Xiao Yi Xun suddenly developed a high fever, with her temperature soaring to forty degrees. Cen Lin struggled considerably before managing to bring her fever down.

As she was leaving, Cen Lin spoke to Leng Yixiu earnestly, "Xiao Yi Xun’s condition is worsening faster than I expected. You need to take action quickly."

Leng Yixiu understood what Cen Lin meant and glanced deeply at the small figure asleep on the bed, then nodded.

Even though he was powerful in the business world, he couldn’t guarantee he would find a suitable bone marrow donor. Time was running out for both him and Xiao Yi Xun, and he had to leave a way out for her.

Three days later, Shi Yi received an invitation. Glancing at the gilded names on the card, a mocking smile tugged at her lips.

Leng Yixiu was really in a hurry. It had only been a day from meeting Gu Yilin to their engagement, and now less than a week later, they were preparing for the wedding. Although the ceremony was scheduled for the beginning of next month, the speed was still astonishing.

Why invite her to the wedding? Wasn’t he afraid she’d ruin it?

Shen Xu, observing Shi Yi’s expression, saw no change in her face and explained cautiously, "Leng’s is currently collaborating with Lei Man. As Lei Man’s CEO, naturally you’re on the guest list."

"Can I not go?" Shi Yi asked casually.

"If you really don’t want to go, it’s not impossible. I could go on your behalf."

Shi Yi chuckled, "I was just joking. Since they invited me, how could I not go? Besides, attending a wedding and soaking up the festive atmosphere is a good thing."

Festive atmosphere?

Shen Xu sensed an odd tone in Shi Yi’s words and probed, "You’re not planning to crash the wedding, are you?"

"Crash the wedding? Ha, Leng Yixiu isn’t worth such effort from me!" Shi Yi didn’t want to dwell on the topic of Leng Yixiu, so she changed the subject, "Why did you come to see me?"

"Oh, I almost forgot the main thing! I came to talk about the game software development. We’re wrapping things up on our end, so you should check it out. If there are no issues, the next step is promotion by Leng’s."

"Good, I’m looking forward to it." Shi Yi smiled.

Shi Yi wasn’t disappointed. The newly developed game software was even more attractive than Lei Man’s previous one. She had no doubt that with proper promotion, Lei Man would make a fortune.

However, what Shi Yi didn’t expect was that, just as they were about to launch the game, a major setback occurred—Leng Group’s old rival released the game first.
