Mrs. Ji had never expected Ji Guowei to be capable of saying something like that. She was completely disappointed in him.
She calmed down and looked at Ji Guowei. "Does it really not matter whether he's biologically related to us?"

Ji Guowei looked coldly at Mrs. Ji. "Can decades of affection really not compare to that little bit of blood relation? Do you know that Peng is at a critical point in his career? If you do this, those old-timers in the company will definitely seize on his mistakes. Do you want to ruin him?"
Mrs. Ji looked at Ji Guowei. They had been married for over thirty years, and now they both had one foot in the grave. She had thought she could no longer be disappointed in this man, but she had discovered that she could be even more disappointed.
Mrs. Ji took a deep breath and said to Ji Guowei, word by word, "Ji Guowei, I want a divorce!"
"What did you say?" Ji Guowei suspected he had heard wrong. "Have you lost your mind? Do you know how much of an impact our divorce will have on the company?"
For families like theirs, a marriage was vital to the business. After all, divorce meant dividing assets and shrinking wealth, so even if many couples went their separate ways, they would not divorce lightly.
"It's just that Peng isn't your biological son. Is that really worth getting divorced over? If you don't want to see him, tell him not to come back and get in your way anymore."
Ji Guowei believed he had already taken a step back. "That's enough."
Mrs. Ji had endured for a long time. She had wanted to settle the matter peacefully, but she had never been a calm person. In the end, she could not hold back. She grabbed a cup from the coffee table and hurled it at Ji Guowei, cursing as she threw things, "Get out! I'm divorcing you! Do you think I'm discussing this with you?"
"Ji Guowei, I'm telling you, if you don't agree to a divorce, I won't let this go!"
Mrs. Ji threw everything she could see at Ji Guowei. Ji Guowei struggled to dodge her attacks, staring at her in disbelief. "You've gone mad! You really have gone mad!"
"I have gone mad!" Mrs. Ji smashed the living room to pieces and shoved over the entire antique display shelf. She grabbed the scissors she normally used for flower arranging and pointed their sharp blades at Ji Guowei. "Divorce me. If you don't, we'll die together!"
The scissors in Mrs. Ji's hand gleamed with a cold, sharp light. Combined with her chilling, crazed expression, Ji Guowei felt a shiver run through him.
The next moment, he realized that he had actually been frightened by this crazy woman, and he felt utterly humiliated.
Ji Guowei shook off his shock and stepped out from the corner, his face dark. "Fine, we'll divorce. Do you think the position of Mrs. Ji can only belong to you? Just wait. Once I divorce you, I'll marry someone better than you!"
The divorce between Ji Guowei and Mrs. Ji was no trivial matter. They had founded the company together, and the shares, movable assets, and real estate in their hands all had to be divided again. Ji Guowei wanted to play some tricks, but Mrs. Ji had long applied for asset preservation, and the company's chief financial officer was one of her people. Ji Guowei had no room to tamper with anything.

Ji Group had also developed quite well domestically, and this sudden change in share ownership raised many questions.
[Does anyone know what's been going on with Ji Group lately? I woke up and found that the Ji Group stock I bought had gone green. I've practically lost my pants. This is the first time in more than a decade that Ji Group's stock price has fallen this badly, right?]
[OP definitely didn't watch the news last night. Ji Group's chairman and the chairman's wife officially announced their divorce last night. For people at the top of a group like theirs, marriage is closely tied to the company's stock price. Mrs. Ji took 30% of Ji Guowei's shares in the divorce settlement. How could the stock not fall?]
[Wasn't Ji Group's chairman and his wife very loving? I often saw them attending charity events together in the papers. Their relationship looked great.]
[The person above is too naive. Rich people like them usually just do their own thing. What real feelings could there be?]
[I'm an employee of Ji Group and know a little insider information. Our chairman and his wife divorced because the chairman has a child outside the marriage!]
[Your information is outdated! My best friend works at Ji Group headquarters, the kind who gets to meet the executives every day. She told me that Ji Group's chairman and his wife divorced because Chairman Ji's son isn't biologically his!]
[Holy shit! Really? Ji Guowei got cheated on? He raised someone else's child for over thirty years?]
[Someone earlier said Ji Guowei had an illegitimate child, which was why Mrs. Ji divorced him. So who's right?]
[Friend, cancer. Get it?]
[An insider here to explain: does everyone remember the news two days ago about Qiu Baizhen being taken away by the police? That case is related to what recently happened to the Ji Family. Ji Group's young heir actually wasn't born to Mrs. Ji. Back then, Qiu Baizhen bribed the doctors and nurses to switch her son with Mrs. Ji's daughter! Ji Guowei knew about it.]
[I can confirm that what the person above said is true. This has caused quite a stir in our circle. Many families in our circle who gave birth at that hospital are now taking their children for paternity tests.]
[!!!]
[Holy shit! I thought those switched-at-birth heiress stories only existed in novels and TV dramas. I never expected novels to come from reality!]
This news about Ji Group was no longer merely social news. There was a wealthy family and a celebrity among those involved, and netizens were wildly enthusiastic in their discussions. Before long, topics related to the incident all climbed Weibo's trending searches.

And Mrs. Ji—oh, she should be called Lin Meishu now—directed the servants to pack her belongings. She was preparing to move out.
