Dinner is over.

Zhou Zheng supported Liu Xiangru and stuffed her into the back seat of the car, while Zhou Mo lent a hand.

The two families said goodbye across the Vios.

Han Chen estimated that a lot of alcohol in his body had been broken down and had completely appeared on his face. The two blushes on his cheekbones looked like he had applied darker blush.

He stood there motionless, watching Zhou Mo get on the back seat of the Vios.

Zhou Mo lowered the car window and waved at him, "Aunt Liang, you guys should go back soon. And you, go back and drink some honey water."

"Yeah," Han Chen replied calmly, "Be careful on the road."

The car slowly drove out of Century Garden.

Zhou Mo looked up at the sky. It was a pitch-black night with no moon and few stars.

When will her relationship with Han Chen see the light of day again?

This way she won't have to look at this lonely sky.

Her good days with Han Chen did not last long and were interrupted by the return of Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru.

According to Liu Xiangru's idea, she wanted Zhou Mo to stay with them in Yuanshangju for a few days.

He said he hadn’t seen me for a long time and missed Zhou Mo.

Zhou Mo couldn't refuse, as she really hadn't lived at home for a long time.

Ten days later.

Liu Chengfu's farm had a new batch of chicks ready to be raised, so Zhou Zheng bought a ticket to Yushan that day.

Zhou Zhengben planned to buy a car for Zhou Mo first, but before he decided which model to buy, he was called away.

I can only wait until I come back.

Zhou Zheng said, "It's just right. I can earn more money and buy Momo a better car."

Zhou Mo was not in a hurry to get a car. He only reminded Zhou Zheng to be careful on the road and take care of his health in Yushan.

Zhou Zheng laughed and said, "Ever since Yu Yizhou was sentenced, my health has improved immediately."

When Yu Yizhou was mentioned, Zhou Mo also felt relieved.

This case, which was fully represented by Fang Shuo, was heard two days ago. After the verdict was announced in court, Yu Yizhou was sent to prison.

Zhou Mo didn't attend the trial, but Fang Shuo said that Yu Yizhou's parents had a big scene in court, not because of their son, Yu Yizhou, but because Ms. Wu was still a prostitute at her age, and Yu Yizhou's father felt humiliated. Wu Qinxin also exposed Yu Yizhou's father's past, saying that in the early years before bankruptcy liquidation, he had kept mistresses outside, deceived countless young girls, and finally forced them to have abortions.

The incident was so embarrassing that it even made the headlines in the family and emotions section of Dongjiang Life Daily.

Zhou Mo saw it in the local news push on his mobile phone.

She just felt happy and cursed in her heart: You deserve it.

She then forwarded the news to Zhang Lanlan.

Zhang Lanlan said: I saw it.

Zhou Mo: Now that he’s in jail, he won’t harass you anymore. When will you return to school?

Zhang Lanlan: I don’t want to go anymore.

Zhou Mo was shocked: Why did you suddenly have this idea?

Zhang Lanlan: I just don’t want to go anymore, there’s no other reason.

Zhou Mo: Your classmates don’t know about your situation, and I won’t tell anyone else. You can go back to school with peace of mind.

Zhang Lanlan: I... am already preparing to go through the procedures for dropping out of school.

Zhou Mo: Have you told Director Shen?

Zhang Lanlan: I haven’t figured out how to start yet.

Zhou Mo: Don't give up on yourself. Think about Director Shen, think about all of us. You don't have to give up your studies and future because of that scumbag.

Zhang Lanlan didn't reply. After a long time, she said: I'll think about it.

Zhou Mo: You should think it over carefully. If you feel bad about it, you can take a temporary leave of absence. You don't have to drop out. You can return to school after you've adjusted your mindset.

Zhang Lanlan: Okay.

Zhou Mo didn't know whether her word "good" meant that she had listened to her advice.

Now that things have come to this, she can only try her best to comfort Zhang Lanlan.

Based on Zhou Mo's limited experience, if women want to achieve true liberation, the only way with the lowest cost and highest efficiency is to improve their academic qualifications.

When Zhou Mo was studying for his doctorate, he actually held his breath.

Zhou Mo couldn't swallow it when Ren Huaibo was hanging out with his doctoral senior Tai Ning.

It's just a PhD, what's the big deal? She also wants to get a PhD to show some people and slap some people in the face.

However, as she went up, she had a different understanding.

Apart from the worrying fact of her meager income during her doctoral studies, everything else was actually going in a good direction for her as a girl.

After graduating with a doctorate, she will be able to get a decent job. With the support of her academic qualifications, she can demonstrate her social value and social identity, and achieve the top level of Maslow's hierarchy of spiritual needs - "self-realization."

In addition, she has quite some experience and interest in scientific research and does not find it boring. Studying for a doctorate is undoubtedly the best choice for her.

She was also thankful for herself, as she had been lucky along the way. The only imperfection was that she would probably be over 32 years old when she graduated with a doctorate.

Zhou Mo’s previous wish was that if she wanted to have a child, she hoped it would be before she was 28 years old, which is probably her current age. However... it is no longer possible.

Even if she gets pregnant now, she won't be able to give birth to a child before her 29th birthday this year.

The high degree of social differentiation has led to people spending a long time looking for jobs and careers that suit them, which has shortened the time people have to delve into their industries and also delayed the time they spend starting a family and having children.

If he hadn't met Han Chen... Zhou Mo didn't dare to think about it.

Not to mention having children, she probably wouldn't even be able to get married before she turns 30.

Industrial society has developed for so many years, but it is not necessarily very friendly to women.

As individuals in social activities, women can only rely on themselves and grasp what they can grasp, such as academic qualifications, which may make things a little easier.

Never expect to change your destiny by getting married, because from the moment you have this idea, you are already looking down on yourself and putting yourself on the same level as other people of equal value.

While delivering something to Shen Qingyi, Zhou Mo told her that Zhang Lanlan was thinking of dropping out of school.

Shen Qingyi's expression suddenly changed. "Did Yu Yizhou harass her again?"

"No, Yu Yizhou has already been imprisoned," Zhou Mo said. "She must be stuck in a rut and can't get over it. I suggest she take a leave of absence rather than drop out."

"Yes, if not, we can just take a leave of absence from school," Shen Qingyi said, "Where is she now? What does she think?"

"I didn't ask any more questions."

Shen Qingyi's face was filled with worry, and he sighed slightly, "That Yu Yizhou, haven't you already fallen into a trap once? I really can't understand why she insisted on jumping into it even though she knew you had already fallen into it."

"A Porsche, a house of over 100 square meters... For a girl, these things are enough to talk about marriage."

"Why would you be greedy for other people's money? After graduation, can't you earn your own money to buy a house? If the mortgage hasn't been paid off yet, and you're paying it together after marriage, you won't get half of the house in the event of a divorce. They paid the down payment, so the woman will get a small share at most. If they're a bit dishonest, there are many people who won't get a penny."
