After Gu's mother's matter was resolved, the Lin family's matter was also quietly resolved under Gu Zixiao's instructions.

Gu Zixiao originally intended to deal with the Lin family gradually, but the Lin family came knocking on her door.

Given this, will Gu Zixiao still tolerate the Lin family?

Of course, we won't indulge the Lin family.

Besides, the Lin family isn't exactly known for its integrity; an investigation would easily confirm that.

No matter how well Lin's father hid himself, Gu Zixiao would not let go of any clues.

So, without Lan Yao's knowledge, Gu Zixiao eliminated the hidden troublemaker from the Lin family.

When Gu's mother learned that her best friend's family had been dealt with, her face turned pale.

Mr. Gu patted her back to comfort her: "It's okay, it's okay. This has nothing to do with us."

Mr. Gu was glad that he had listened to advice and stopped interfering in his son's affairs.

Otherwise, that scoundrel Gu Zixiao wouldn't care whether he was his biological father or not.

They'll probably be even more vengeful then.

There's nothing we can do; he's family. If we don't get revenge on him, who will we get revenge on?

Only when it comes to taking revenge on our own family members can we be ruthless.

Mrs. Gu sniffed, looking aggrieved, and said, "I know, honey."

...

After everything was settled, Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao both got busy with their own things.

Gu Zixiao is busy with military affairs. He used to go out on field missions whenever he had free time, but now he is finally able to stay in the military and not go out.

He naturally had to get busy with matters concerning his own group.

During this period, their unit also dealt with Wang Lei's matter.

The reason why Wang Lei's matter was delayed for so long was that the military couldn't just believe Lan Yao's one-sided story; they also needed to go back to Wang Lei's side to investigate.

The investigation results were indeed as Lan Yao had said.

After all, the story of how Wang Lei got entangled with Lan Yao and how he shamelessly insisted on getting engaged to her caused quite a stir in the village at the time.

It's still a topic of conversation for everyone even now.

In addition, Lan Yao was taken away and has not returned to this day.

Some people say he might have gone to the military base to look for Wang Lei.

After all, Wang Lei was able to join the army thanks to Lan Yao's grandfather's help.

Lan Yao's grandfather was able to help because he had saved the other person.

The other party was grateful and helped with this small favor.

At first, Wang Lei was indeed a pretty good young man, but who knew he would become so ungrateful later on.

After Wang Lei's case was confirmed, he was forced to leave the military.

Lan Yuzhu, who had been prepared for this all along, also decisively divorced Wang Lei.

When they divorced, they had a huge fight, and the scene was quite ugly.

Wang Lei looked at Lan Yuzhu with a cold gaze: "It's because I wanted to marry you that I'm ruined."

Lan Yuzhu: "What does that have to do with me? If you hadn't been so persistent in pursuing me, do you think I would have fallen for you?"

Lan Yuzhu is a very practical person.

Wang Lei: "I will not get a divorce. If you want to divorce me, I will not let you go."

Wang Lei originally had a bright future, but now, because of Lan Yuzhu, he has lost everything. How could Wang Lei possibly give up?

"You'll have to get a divorce whether you want to or not. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. My brother-in-law is a member of the Revolutionary Committee."

"It would be incredibly easy for me to mess with a veteran like you," Lan Yuzhu threatened expressionlessly.

These were the words her father said to her.

If Wang Lei doesn't want a divorce, her brother-in-law will naturally help her sort it out.

Wang Lei twitched the corners of his mouth, a look of disappointment on his face.

"Lan Yuzhu, I never expected you to be this kind of person."

"So, stop talking nonsense and get a divorce," Lan Yuzhu said coldly.

Wang Lei: "...Okay."

After Wang Lei divorced Lan Yuzhu, he found out where Lan Yao was now.

He came to our door.

When Lan Yao opened the door and saw it was him, she asked quite calmly, "What are you doing here?"

"Now I'm divorced and discharged from the military because of you, are you satisfied?"

Yu Suanpan was quite angry: "Master, what's wrong with this idiot? How can he act so self-righteous? Where's his face? How dare he say such things?"

Jade Pixiu: "Isn't this normal? A man from a poor background who has risen from humble beginnings will never think he's done anything wrong. He thinks all the blame lies with others."

This is exactly the kind of person Wang Lei is now.

Lan Yao wasn't going to tolerate him. She raised her hand and slapped him a few times, saying as she hit him, "You still dare to come to my door? What do you mean, 'Am I satisfied'? Did I tell you to hook up with Lan Yuzhu after you got engaged to me, and then pretend to have amnesia and marry the wrong person?"

Did I make you so ungrateful? If you hadn't looked down on me in the first place, wouldn't you have married me?

You remember my good points while simultaneously criticizing me, and then you're seeing other people behind my back.

Do I look like someone who's easy to bully?

Wang Lei was shocked. When did Lan Yao become so fierce?

It's simply unbelievable.

He remembered that Lan Yao was dark-skinned and thin, shy, calm, or perhaps indifferent.

Anyway, these personality traits combined together make people feel strange, and they don't dare to get close to them.

Therefore, after realizing what was happening, Wang Lei also wanted to rebel against Lan Yao.

However, he discovered that he was no match for Lan Yao and could only passively be beaten by her.

Wang Lei: ...

I never realized Lan Yao was so strong in combat before.

Furthermore, he was quite capable when he was in the army, but now he can only let others beat him up. Isn't that a bit too shameful?

Lan Yao beat Wang Lei for a while, then felt it was enough. She snorted coldly, "Don't show your face in front of me again, or I'll make you regret it."

While saying this, she also had Yu Suanpan administer several kinds of drugs to Wang Lei.

One type of medicine would prevent him from ever having children, while the other would cause him to break out in rashes all over his body, gradually weakening his health.

In truth, she couldn't just take revenge on Wang Lei alone.

She also wanted to drug Lan Yuzhu so that she could never have children again, to prevent her from harming others.

So Lan Yao was quite decisive; she put on her clothes and went to the Lan family home.

At this moment, Lan Yuzhu was suffering at home, and she desperately wanted to abort the child in her womb.

But Liu Lanxiang wouldn't allow it and advised, "You'll give birth in a few more months, just hold on a little longer."

If you get an abortion now, and you develop health problems later, what man will want you?

Modern men won't want women who can't have children.

Even though Lan Yuzhu was in great pain, she still listened to her own mother's words.

She cried and complained, "Waaah, Mom, why am I so unlucky?"
