Seeing the woman sternly pull the little girl aside and raise her hand to hit the child, Xun Xiangbin raised his hand to stop her.

"Speak your mind, why hit the child?"

"What's it to you?" Upon hearing his voice, the woman's impatience deepened. "Xun Xiangbin, you remember this: this isn't your daughter, this is my daughter, my daughter! I can discipline her however I want!"

The little girl resisted, trying to twist her hand away, and said with a frown, "Mommy, I don't want to go with you, I want to go with Daddy!"

Upon hearing the child say this, Xun Xiangbin's expression softened, and he looked at the woman with a troubled expression.

"I heard from my mother that your name is Yao Fengling?"

Yao Fengling snorted coldly, her disdainful gaze sweeping over Xun Xiangbin from head to toe. She curled her lip and said, "You still want to listen to your mother? Xun Xiangbin, if you want a divorce, just say so. Why bother with all this roundabout stuff?"

"You just want to be with other women, don't you? The woman you're really hung up on is that woman, isn't she?"

As she spoke, she angrily pointed at Luo Xiujuan, who was standing by the roadside.

Luo Xiujuan's body stiffened.

She was even more afraid that Yao Fengling would say something she shouldn't to Xun Xiangbin, causing her trouble, in response to Yao Fengling's hostility.

Without hesitation, he said, "Ms. Yao, aren't you here to get a divorce?"

"What's it to you?" Yao Fengling retorted, having no liking for Luo Xiujuan.

Luo Xiujuan pursed her lips, her tone tinged with displeasure: "Since you've decided to get a divorce, be clean and decisive. You don't want people to laugh at you, and you don't want your other man to know that you're dragging your feet about not wanting a divorce, do you?"

"What did you say?"

Yao Fengling was dumbfounded. She never expected that a woman from the mountains could be so eloquent!

At this moment, Qin Zheng and Ye Yun also got out of the car.

Seeing that Yao Fengling was about to make trouble for Luo Xiujuan, Ye Yun gave Luo Xiujuan a subtle look, and Luo Xiujuan immediately understood and hid behind her.

Ye Yun then looked at Yao Fengling.

Seeing that Ye Yun and Qin Zheng were dressed in extraordinary attire, Yao Fengling's eyes darted around with a scrutinizing look, and she said uncertainly, "You..."

"My name is Ye Yun."

"Heh." Yao Fengling scoffed coldly.

She must have heard of Ye Yun's reputation, because she didn't show the same level of hostility as she did towards Luo Xiujuan.

However, it wasn't much better.

His gaze swept over Ye Yun, filled with mockery and a hint of schadenfreude.

"So it was you who investigated me and interfered with my relationship with Xun Xiangbin?" She showed no shame whatsoever, and even questioned Ye Yun.

Ye Yun looked at her calmly, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Ms. Yao, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place," she said. "You schemed to marry Xun Xiangbin, ruining his life, making him a father out of wedlock, and giving him such a huge cuckold's horns. Did anyone expose you?"

"If you can settle down after marriage and live a good life with him, no one should make things difficult for you; you know that Xun Xiangbin's mother thinks highly of you as her daughter-in-law."

"But you just won't."

"Not only did you make him a father out of wedlock, but you also kept cheating on him after marriage. He's had so many cuckolded horns he could open a shop. Don't you feel guilty?"

Yao Fengling retorted, "What's it to you!"

She didn't think she was wrong at all. Faced with absolute power, what was wrong with her choosing a path that was advantageous to herself?

What does Xun Xiangbin have?

She's just an ordinary accountant, earning only thirty yuan a month, which isn't even enough for her to buy two pieces of clothing!

Following him, she has no reputation whatsoever, and when she goes out, no one knows who she is. She also has to work hard every month to earn money to support the family. Why should she?

But it's different when you're with the principal.

First of all, it sounds good—a people's teacher.

Secondly, she can attend classes whenever she wants, and if she doesn't want to, someone else will teach for her. She doesn't even have to write lesson plans, and she can live a comfortable life, doing whatever she wants.

The principal is very generous; every time she accompanies him on a business trip, she always manages to get a bunch of good stuff.

Even the smallest amount of money that slips through the principal's fingers is more than Xun Xiangbin, a poor boy, could earn in a year.

In this situation, anyone would know how to choose, right?

"Fine! If you want a divorce, then get a divorce quickly! Whoever doesn't is a coward!" Yao Fengling was also furious. She grabbed the little girl, turned around, and went into her workplace in her little leather shoes.

Xun Xiangbin could only keep up with her.

The little girl still wanted to find her father, but Yao Fengling wouldn't allow her to go to Xun Xiangbin and dragged her into the divorce office.

To prevent Yao Fengling from saying anything inappropriate, Ye Yun also went into the workplace.

After all, Luo Xiujuan is a woman. If she went in with Xun Xiangbin alone, outsiders would have no idea what to say about her and Xun Xiangbin.

The divorce certificate was stamped shortly afterward.

The division of property and children's assets is straightforward.

The girl wasn't Xun Xiangbin's child, so she could only stay with her biological mother, Yao Fengling.

As for the house, Xun Xiangbin didn't have much money to begin with. He gave some of his salary to his domineering mother, and then Yao Fengling took it away. He only had a few yuan for pocket money each month, and he spent all of that on snacks and toys for his little girl.

It can be said that he was penniless.

At least Yao Fengling showed mercy and didn't use their years of marriage as leverage to sue and seize his house.

Several people came out of the workplace where the divorce was taking place.

Yao Fengling held the divorce certificate she had just received, glared at Xun Xiangbin, and clearly didn't want to say another word.

It's good that you're divorced.

Outsiders have no idea that she is pregnant again. She consulted a fortune teller who said this baby would be a son, and once the son is born, she can use this to force a confession and become the principal's wife.

She was still worried about how to divorce Xun Xiangbin.

It's like someone just delivered a pillow when you're sleepy. Although this method is a bit unseemly, it's not a bad thing for her.

We should mainly thank Xun's mother.

That damned old woman, she didn't even shout about such an embarrassing thing so that everyone would know.

Presumably, she was also worried about her son being cuckolded and felt she couldn't bear the shame, so she quietly suppressed the matter, thus preserving her reputation.

Yao Fengling held the marriage certificate, feeling smug.

The thought of becoming the principal's wife made her chin lift even higher.

She didn't go to see Xun Xiangbin.

His arrogant gaze swept past Xun Xiangbin and landed on Ye Yun behind him: "If I remember correctly, your name is Ye Yun, right?"

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow.

Why are you suddenly bringing her up?

Do you know what retribution is?

Yao Fengling suddenly spoke again.

Her lips, painted with lipstick, curled up slightly in disdain, and she looked at Ye Yun with a meaningful gaze, as if she knew something that Ye Yun herself was unaware of.

Ye Yun frowned.

retribution?

Is it reasonable for someone who was someone's mistress and cheated on her husband for five years to say such a thing?
