The River Blooms Brighter Than Fire

A seemingly cold, domineering CEO who’s secretly a devoted, lovesick puppy × a glamorous, icy actress

“Mr. Jiang, your wife...”

“What? Has she come around? Given up on the divorce?”

“Not exactly. She still... wants a divorce.” The assistant lowered his head, trying to make himself disappear.

Jiang Jinheng froze for a moment, then sneered. “Fine! She wants a divorce? She can forget about it!”

In the study of the Jiang family’s old residence, Grandma Jiang looked at the grandson she had doted on since he was a child.

“Xiaoxuan wants a divorce. Have you been mistreating her?” Her voice was calm, but her presence commanded respect.

Jiang Jinheng lowered his head, stubbornly insisting, “We’ve had a misunderstanding, but no matter what, I’m not getting divorced! I’d rather die!”

Grandma sighed. “Jin, I’ve always wanted to ask you something. Is a melon forced off the vine really sweet?”

Jiang Jinheng stared blankly for a moment, then stubbornly replied, “But I’ve already forced it off the vine. I only want her.”

Grandma knew what her grandson was like, so she wasn’t surprised. She only smiled wryly. “All right, I understand. Leave this to me. I’ll use my age to my advantage and try to talk to Xiaoxuan.”

Jiang Jinheng had always known that Grandma liked Huo Xuan, and that Huo Xuan respected her. Hearing this, he seemed to feel a weight lift off his chest. But the next day, his assistant handed him two bright red booklets.

“Divorce papers?!” he ground out through clenched teeth, then hurriedly called the old woman to demand an explanation.

Grandma remained perfectly composed. “Relax, they’re fake... Xiaoxuan is determined to divorce you, so let’s go along with it for now. Hurry up and win her back before she finds out!”

Jiang Jinheng couldn’t help thinking, Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. That’s my grandma!
