When their eyes met, Lin Zhi felt Fu Lanchen's oppressive gaze.

"I'm just going to make you feel like you can't do it?"

Lin Zhi's breathing stopped.

Fu Lanchen ignored the fact that his mother was still there, walked straight over, grabbed Lin Zhi's wrist and dragged her upstairs.

Lin Zhi struggled all the way, but as soon as she reached the second floor, he pressed her against the wall and kissed her forcefully.

She twisted her body in panic, but he held her waist tighter, clasped her neck with his other hand, and bit her lips aggressively without a trace of emotion, just a retaliatory punishment.

Lin Zhi knew that struggling was useless, so she finally compromised and let him vent.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally stopped and pulled Lin Zhi into the study.

As soon as the door closed, he approached her with a murderous look in his eyes, "Am I not as good as those characters you have played in your eyes?"

"I……"

Lin Zhi was speechless and turned away.

Fu Lanchen grabbed her shoulders, and the coldness around him enveloped her. "What? I'm waiting for your explanation."

Lin Zhi raised her eyes, thought for a moment, and said very patiently, "You don't understand the entertainment industry. I stayed there alone and didn't want to drag you into it. Fu Lanchen, a secret marriage is actually quite good. Marriage is a relationship between two people, there's no need to put on a show for outsiders. In the entertainment industry, I'm Andy, but when I'm home on vacation, I'm Lin Zhi, your wife and Sarah's mother."

She is very sincere.

She tried to find a hint of understanding in Fu Lanchen's eyes, but unfortunately she couldn't see it.

After a long time, Fu Lanchen seemed to be discouraged and his hands slipped from her shoulders.

At this moment, Lin Zhi was extremely disappointed with him.

She had actually thought about it long ago; those three years together hadn't been in vain. It wasn't like she hadn't witnessed his ruthlessness before.

Fu Lanchen turned his back to her and said, "You women are all the same. You have a lot of good reasons that make it impossible to refute them."

Lin Zhi frowned at this.

"Since you think so, I really have nothing to say. If a secret marriage doesn't satisfy you, then let's get a divorce as stated in the clarification statement."

She will not compromise herself because of a man.

Her children can live without a father, but they cannot live in a space without freedom.

Fu Lanchen seemed shocked by her words. He turned around suddenly and looked at her intently.

"You really don't want to live with me?"

Lin Zhi rolled his eyes and was speechless.

Her condition made Fu Lanchen even more unacceptable.

"Lin Zhi, what exactly about me makes you dissatisfied?"

"Your support for whatever I do is the greatest satisfaction for me."

Fu Lanchen frowned and had nothing to refute.

Lin Zhi didn't wait for his next words and was about to go out. When she grabbed the handle, she turned and looked at him again.

"Nan Zhi came to see me yesterday and asked me to leave you."

After she finished speaking, she opened the door and went out.

Fu Lanchen paced a few steps, thinking that Lin Zhi was angry with Nan Zhi, so she was taking revenge on him. So, he immediately made a phone call.

*

Lin Zhi went downstairs, but Fu's mother had not left yet.

Perhaps because she was worried about Sarah being alone downstairs, she stayed with her in the living room.

Seeing Lin Zhi coming down the stairs, she stood up and said to Sarah, "Grandma will come to see you in a few days."

Sarah politely stood up from the sofa and waved goodbye to her.

Mother Fu walked towards the entrance, and Lin Zhi went down the last step.

After all, I can't make the decision for my son, so there's nothing much to say.

After changing shoes and leaving, Lin Zhi stood there, watching the door open and close.

Not long after, Fu Lanchen came down from upstairs, passed by Lin Zhi, and without saying a word, he opened the door and went out.

In the huge house, only mother and daughter were left, looking very lonely.

Lin Zhi did not remain negative all the time. He quickly cheered himself up and checked his next schedule.

She was supposed to join the group tomorrow, but now that someone else has replaced her, she can only continue to be idle.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Sheng Yan called.

Lin Zhi took Sarah back upstairs while answering the phone.

Sheng Yan's first question was, "Why did you hide your secret marriage with Fu Lanchen from me?"

Lin Zhi was embarrassed, "This..."

Her mind was in a mess at the time and she completely forgot about Sheng Yan.

She asked Sarah to go back to the room and stayed at the door to answer the call while racking her brains to explain.

"…That's right, it was a complete accident."

"Before, the paparazzi broke the news that you had a child. Don't tell me that this child is Fu Lanchen's."

Sheng Yan is such a smart person, it's not easy for her to be perfunctory.

"You can't hide anything from me. But if this gets exposed, I might lose my job."

"What's wrong with being unemployed? I'm planning a short play. Can I invite you to be the leading actress?"

"What's a skit?"

"Each episode is about ten minutes long, and the filming period is short. If you're interested, you can come and take a look. Oh, and there's one more thing."

"you say."

"Do you remember the last time Lin Ying and my brother were getting married?"

"If it hadn't gone to the police station, I would have thought it was over."

"They eloped."

"When did it happen?"

"This morning."

Lin Zhi thought about it. An unfamiliar number had called her this morning. Could it be Lin Ying? When had she changed her number?

"Now, have you contacted me?"

"Don't worry too much about young people eloping."

Sheng Yan is quite open-minded.

Lin Zhi looked at the time and said, "It's a little late today. I'll come to see you tomorrow."

…

The two chatted about something else, and Lin Zhi hung up and went back to the bedroom.
