People in the family compound heard that Ye Zhaoyu was getting a divorce from Qin Zichuan.

Everyone is saying that she's immature, likes to cause trouble, and that she'll get rid of her man soon enough.

In everyone's eyes, Qin Zichuan is a good man. He doesn't require his wife to cook or work. He respects his wife in everything. He's handsome, earns a high salary, and doesn't beat his wife. There aren't many good men like him.

Ye Zhaoyu didn't appreciate what she had, and divorced him over a trivial matter.

Everyone knew that Ye Zhaoyu wanted to divorce Qin Zichuan. Everyone felt heartbroken seeing Qin Zichuan heartbroken and waiting alone at home for Ye Zhaoyu to return.

Lin Zhizhi was overjoyed to hear everyone in the family compound saying that Ye Zhaoyu was ungrateful, and she was just waiting for them to get a divorce.

She was the one who leaked the news that Qin Zichuan and Ye Zhaoyu were getting a divorce; she didn't dare to post the photos.

On his way home, Qin Zichuan heard many people come to comfort him, telling him that the next one would be even better.

"I don't want the next one, I just want this one." Qin Zichuan lowered his head helplessly.

He had no idea how things had gotten to this point. He wondered why other couples could argue without breaking up, while his couple had broken up before they even started arguing.

If Ye Zhaoyu knew that Qin Zichuan had this idea, she would say, "The reason they can't break up is because one side swallows their grievances; otherwise, it would have ended in no time."

Huo Yan couldn't bear to see him like this. "You can go and beg her for forgiveness. She won't even know you're heartbroken and sad here."

Huo Yan felt that Ye Zhaoyu was making a mountain out of a molehill. They hadn't taken many photos together, so it was normal for them to have misunderstandings. They could have just explained it out; why did it escalate to the point of divorce?

What does Ye Zhaoyu think marriage is? Getting married and divorced whenever she wants, she has no respect for marriage at all.

"She won't turn back." This is also why Qin Zichuan dared not go to Ye Zhaoyu.

He forced this marriage from the beginning; Ye Zhaoyu didn't need him to take responsibility. If he hadn't expressed his desire to get married to his superiors...

In order to resolve his personal issues and allow him to focus more on his mission, they stopped trying to persuade Ye Zhaoyu to marry him. At that time, she only agreed to marry him because they said that the matter would affect his promotion.

Qin Zichuan knew that Ye Zhaoyu hadn't completely fallen in love with him yet, so that day he wanted to test whether Ye Zhaoyu would be anxious because of his misunderstanding.

However, this attempt to test her heart failed to reveal anything and instead pushed her further away.

"How will you know if you don't try? They say that couples who quarrel in bed make up before they fall asleep, and women eventually come to their senses."

Huo Yan offered his own explanation: every time Wen Nuan got angry with him, he did this, to the point that he eventually forgot what he was angry about.

"I can't even get into her yard now." Qin Zichuan felt that Huo Yan had said something pointless.

Doesn't he want to? The problem is that Ye Zhaoyu is too good at protecting herself; no one can get close to her at all.

That's true. Given Ye Zhaoyu's personality, who could bully her unless she did it willingly?

Moreover, she broke off her relationship with Ling Yunjue cleanly; she hasn't seen him since marrying him.

Why did I think of testing the waters back then?

The more Qin Zichuan thought about it, the more he hated himself. Why couldn't he have trusted them just a little more?

Ye Zhaoyu had no idea what Qin Zichuan was thinking. After the blueprints for the clothing store were completed, Ye Zhaoyu instructed her staff to begin preparations for the renovation. She and Ye Fei only went over occasionally to check on the progress.

As soon as the holiday started, Ye Zhaoyu, Ye Fei, and Shen Qingyang bought train tickets and headed south. They temporarily left all the matters in Beijing to Ye Yiming and Ye Xiaohui.

The current focus is on developing these two individuals' ability to work independently.

"Do you think Xiaodie and Xiaowu will be very surprised to see us?" Shen Qingyang asked excitedly as he sat on the southbound train.

She's never been that far before.

"I guess so, but the five of us have been separated for almost six years, and we haven't slept together in a long time." Ye Fei also missed Ye Die and Ye Wu.

"This time I had them book a super large bed, so we can still sleep together," Ye Zhaoyu said, explaining her plan.

In the South, there are no kang beds. If you want to sleep together, you have to have a bed made to order, and the quilts and other bedding are also made to order.

Ye Fei wrote that the bed was 3 meters wide, enough for them to sleep together.

"Comrade Ye, are you going to the south?" Lin Zhizhi and Lin Miaoyin were quite surprised when they saw Ye Zhaoyu.

Another boy got on the same bus, but Ye Zhaoyu didn't know who he was.

"Comrade, we're not acquainted, don't try to chat me up." After saying that, Ye Zhaoyu closed her eyes, not wanting to talk to her.

Lin Miaoyin glared angrily at Ye Zhaoyu. She had ruined her life like this, yet she showed no remorse whatsoever.

Lin Miaoyin was sent to a farm for three months of reform through labor because she stole Ye Zhaoyu's admission notice and sold it. Her admission qualification was also revoked.

During her three-month reform period, she encountered other people who had also been involved in the fraudulent exchange of college admission notices. They hated themselves for stealing the top scorer's notice and for letting reporters make a big fuss about it so that their actions would be exposed, causing their families to lose their jobs and be demoted.

During the three months of reform, she was cursed and beaten every day, all because of Ye Zhaoyu. She clearly knew that Ye Zhaoyu had stolen the admission notice, so why didn't she say it sooner? Instead, she made a big fuss and let everyone know, just to make herself famous and to make her infamous.

"Hey, my two younger sisters are talking to you, why aren't you paying attention to them?" the man accompanying Lin Miaoyin said, clearly disregarding them.

Ye Fei stood up and twirled his wrist. "Who are you? We don't know you. You're trying to strike up a conversation with us, are you? Pretending to be someone we know and then kidnapping us?"

"What? They're human traffickers?"

Upon hearing the word "kidnapping," the people around immediately looked at Lin Zhizhi and her companions with suspicion.

"No, I didn't, Comrade Ye, how could you slander me?" Lin Zhizhi immediately burst into tears, feeling wronged.

"Miss, could you be mistaken?" A male colleague stepped forward and asked Ye Fei when he saw Lin Zhizhi crying anxiously.

"Uncle, do you know us?" Ye Fei asked the person who spoke up for him.

"I don't know him." The man shook his head to indicate that he did not know him.

"How can you assume I'm wrong just because she cried a couple of times and shed a couple of tears?" Ye Fei asked bluntly.

“But how could a bad person cry? She doesn’t seem like a kidnapper,” the man explained, adding that he believed his elderly relative was quite accurate.

“But bad people don’t have ‘bad’ written on their faces. What if she’s faking it?” Another woman disagreed. “When did crying prove that someone isn’t a bad person?”

"But we're really not bad people. I'm a student at Peking University, and this is my student ID." Seeing that everyone had been fooled by Ye Fei, Lin Zhizhi quickly took out her student ID.

"Look, this is what I told you, this little girl isn't a bad person." The male colleague who spoke up for her immediately straightened his back and puffed out his chest when he saw Lin Zhizhi take out her student ID.

He said he hadn't misjudged the person.
