Chapter 74 She was finally free.

His eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up.

"You truly understand me, Haiyan! Leave this to me. I'll make sure she signs obediently, and I won't let you down!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked home quickly.

When he arrived home, Zhou Dajun stopped, took a short breath, and then carefully pushed the door open.

The door creaked open; it wasn't locked.

Zhou Dajun felt relieved and immediately felt much more at ease.

It seems Zhou Shufen never intended to leave and is still waiting for him to return.

As soon as he entered, he saw Zhou Shufen sitting on the sofa in the living room, her face somber.

On the coffee table, a document was neatly arranged.

Zhou Dajun's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself: This is it!

He sat down next to Zhou Shufen with a somewhat obsequious air, then magically produced a beautifully wrapped bouquet of roses from behind his back.

"Are you still angry? Don't be angry anymore. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have made you sad. I'm giving you these flowers as an apology. They're your favorite red roses, and I picked them out especially for you."

Zhou Shufen glanced at him sideways, her gaze lingering on the bouquet for a moment.

"Hmph, now you know you're wrong? Where were you before?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, her eyes twitched slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up quietly.

She gently accepted the bouquet and bent down to smell the fragrance of the flowers.

"Fine, I'll pretend I didn't see it this time. But remember, you're not allowed to associate with her again, understand? If I find out again, I won't forgive you so easily."

"Definitely! Definitely!"

Zhou Dajun nodded quickly and clasped his hands together as if making a vow.

"I'll walk 800 meters away from her whenever I see her! I swear, from now on I'll only have eyes for you, I won't listen to anyone else, I'll only listen to you!"

He spoke with great conviction, but his eyes kept drifting uncontrollably to the contract on the coffee table.

Zhou Dajun cleared his throat, trying to suppress his excitement, and asked calmly, "Um... this is the share transfer agreement, right? Are all the documents complete? Nothing is missing, is it?"

Zhou Shufen gave a soft "hmm" and looked down to open the contract in her hand.

Her fingers slowly glided across the paper, finally stopping at one spot.

"Sign here."

Zhou Shufen held the entire sheet of paper tightly in her hand.

The first half of the page was completely covered by her palm, with nothing exposed.

Zhou Dajun didn't notice this subtle anomaly at all.

He only saw that Zhou Shufen's name was signed, and he felt relieved.

He immediately picked up a pen and neatly wrote his name in the signature column.

Once the words were written, the contract officially came into effect.

Having achieved his goal, Zhou Dajun's tone became indifferent and perfunctory.

"I have something to do, I need to go out for a bit!"

He was so excited that he hurried towards the door, almost running.

Zhou Shufen did not stop him; she simply sat there, calmly watching his departing figure.

Until his footsteps completely disappeared at the end of the corridor.

She slowly and carefully unfolded the first few pages of the contract that had been folded and covered.

That wasn't some kind of equity distribution agreement at all, but rather a "Support Agreement".

The paper lay flat on the table, the terms clearly laid out.

From the date of signing, Zhou Dajun shall pay Zhou Shufen RMB 100 per month as alimony.

Payment shall not be delayed until the parties reach a further agreement to terminate the agreement.

These hundred yuan may seem insignificant, but they are a huge burden for Zhou Dajun.

Moreover, although the amount is small, it represents an unavoidable legal obligation.

From a legal standpoint, this contract has become Zhou Shufen's protective shield.

Zhou Shufen smiled softly.

She was finally free.

Meanwhile, Zhou Dajun was still immersed in his dream of getting rich.

He walked briskly, jogging through the streets and alleys, rushing to find Wu Haiyan to deliver the good news.

Wu Haiyan heard a knock at the door, went to open it, and saw Zhou Dajun. She frowned slightly.

"Why are you back so soon? Is the contract signed?"

"you guess?"

Zhou Dajun grinned, his face full of smugness.

"Of course you've got it sorted out. That cold-faced woman can't possibly argue with you, can she?"

Wu Haiyan's eyes lit up, and her tone suddenly became excited and eager.

"You're so smart, you guessed right."

Zhou Dajun nodded, his tone full of pride, as if he had just won a great victory.

"Wow—that's awesome! We're about to turn things around!"

Wu Haiyan suddenly screamed and threw herself into Zhou Dajun's arms without thinking.

The two embraced and happily spun around several times in the small living room.

"Get ready, we're going out to have some fun tonight! Don't skimp, spend it if you need to!"

Zhou Dajun patted her on the shoulder and said with great enthusiasm.

He reached into his pocket and felt for a few crumpled coins, but he didn't care.

Today must be a day of pure joy!

He wanted to celebrate his "success".

"Brother Dajun, you're so handsome!"

Wu Haiyan's eyes lit up, her admiration evident in her expression.

She let go of him and rushed into the room.

For this auspicious day, she was determined to dress up nicely.

Not long after, the two walked out of the house hand in hand.

A gentle night breeze blows, and the streets are brightly lit.

Tonight, they will openly and honorably enjoy their "night of victory."

They headed straight for the mall, their steps light and their eyes brimming with excitement.

As soon as Wu Haiyan glanced at the clothes, Zhou Dajun would immediately wave his hand.

"Buy it! Buy it all! Don't hesitate, if you like it, just take it!"

"Brother Dajun, you're so kind to her!"

Wu Haiyan linked her arm with his and gently rested her head on his shoulder.

They didn't leave the mall until their wallets were completely empty, with not a single penny left, and they were carrying bags and packages.

"Sweetie, I won't be staying with you tonight."

Zhou Dajun stopped in his tracks.

“We were just discovered recently. Although the contract has been signed, I still need to keep an eye on the project these next few days to make sure nothing goes wrong.”

His words were quite apt, and Wu Haiyan was very pleased with them.

"I understand. We need to keep things stable over there and not give anyone any leverage against us."

Wu Haiyan nodded and reached out to straighten his collar.

"Brother Dajun, don't worry about your work. I'll be good and wait for you."

After the two parted ways at the door, Zhou Dajun turned around and hurried home, thinking that he could kick the door open with a flourish when he got inside.

But this time, the door didn't budge.

He tried pushing the door twice, then twisted the doorknob hard, and after struggling for a long time, the door still wouldn't open.

"What's going on? Don't you know I'm coming back tonight?"

Zhou Dajun frowned, his tone tinged with dissatisfaction.

But they didn't think much of it, assuming it was just that the women had carelessly forgotten to leave the door open.

He raised his hand and pounded on the door panel without any politeness.

"Open the door! I'm back! Why did you lock the door? Don't you know I wasn't home?"

"Hurry up! Stop dawdling! I'm freezing!"

Inside the room, Zhou Shufen and Zhou Haiqing were sitting on the sofa.

The knocking on the door continued incessantly, but they acted as if they hadn't heard it and continued doing their own thing.

Qin Guifang went to visit Zhou Liya, leaving only the mother and son at home in the empty house.
