Every detail, every glance, every word, did not escape her eyes. Her report was like weaving a fine net, trying to fully reveal Yue Xin's life.

She had secretly followed Yue Xin many times. Her steps were light and cautious, but Yue Xin was like a cunning fox, always able to keenly sense the movements behind her and cleverly get rid of Zhuang Zhiqing's tracking.

Every time she escaped, Zhuang Zhiqing was both annoyed and amazed at Yue Xin's vigilance. This made Zhuang Zhiqing often sigh: "She is such a vigilant person!"

Zhuang Zhiqing tried to find some clues from Yue Xin's actions, but Yue Xin was like a mystery. The more he tried to solve it, the more elusive she became.

Although it was unclear what Yue Xin did, judging from her increasingly bright and beautiful clothes, the gorgeousness and unique style of those clothes allowed the villagers to roughly guess what kind of business she might be engaged in.

That was not the kind of clothing that could be earned through ordinary labor; it seemed to conceal some unknown secret.

This speculation spread among the villagers like a shadow cast on the ground under the sun. However, the villagers also knew that those who engaged in this seemingly glamorous but possibly illicit business often had complex relationships and powerful forces behind them.

For a young intellectual like Yue Xin, once caught in this situation, it would be like an ant facing Mount Tai, unable to resist. This danger was like a beast lurking in the shadows, ready to devour Yue Xin at any moment.

However, fate seemed to have given Yue Xin a chance to turn things around at a critical moment. Ever since the authorities began to crack down on such illegal and criminal activities, Yue Xin, like a frightened bird, quickly returned to her nest and never left the village again.

This crackdown was like a violent storm, washing away the dirt hidden in the darkness and allowing Yue Xin to luckily avoid the possible disaster.

During this process, Mo Shihao also heard some rumors about Yue Xin.

Those rumors were like fragments in the wind, floating into his ears and stirring up a ripple in his heart.

However, he knew clearly that now that he had divorced Yue Xin, their life trajectories were like two straight lines that intersected and then separated. He could not and should not interfere in her affairs anymore.

He understood that he needed to take control of his own life. The past was past and he had to look forward.

So, he decided to devote himself to study and work with all his strength. He was like a ship with its sails hoisted, ready to sail through the ocean of knowledge and career.

Whether he is working hard during the day or reading by lamplight at night, he is full of energy, and his eyes are shining with longing for the future.

However, the difficulties in reality were like huge mountains standing in front of him. Because he had to balance work and review at the same time, his learning progress lagged behind others.

When he saw his companions going further and further on the road of knowledge, while he seemed to be stuck in the same place, a deep anxiety came over him.

This pressure was like a heavy rock pressing on his heart, but he did not give up and continued to persevere.

Although he and Yue Xin lived under the same roof, the emotional bond they once had seemed to be broken overnight.

They were like strangers, passing each other in that small space without ever saying hello. When their eyes met, there was no warmth, only cold indifference.

This indifferent way of getting along is like an icy chasm between the two people, which makes people sigh at how much their relationship has changed. The intimacy they once had has now disappeared, leaving only endless alienation.
