"Shen Meiyan, have you lost your mind? How could you start getting involved with these things?"
Listening to Rong Mo's friend's explanation, Shen Zhi Qiu finally understood what had happened. Looking at the still bleeding wound on Shen Mei Yan's wrist, she couldn't help but smirk.
"I hate you! Shen Zhi Qiu, why do you get all the good things?! You're just a little prettier than me, yet you were able to marry into the Gu family, and now that you're divorced, you still have such a devoted man like Lu Jia by your side, who treats your child as his own! Why don't I have such good luck!"
I've already consulted a 'witch,' and it turns out you're my nemesis, because all your good luck has been sucked away from me! Now I'm going to make you pay for it!
This is all something you owe me! You can't blame me!
"Shen Meiyan, you've really gone mad. You can actually believe such absurd things."
Looking at her younger sister whom she had watched grow up, Shen Zhi Qiu couldn't help but sigh, "Do you think I'm doing well after marrying Gu Qing Yan? Have you forgotten when I ran away from home while pregnant? Have you ever thought about why I ran away from home? If you were me, could you accept Gu Qing Yan taking Xiao Wan Qing to various events and even bringing her back to live in our marital home?"
Xiao Wanqing tried to kill me many times, but Gu Qingyan was always able to protect her.
Can you accept your husband being like this?
If I were truly doing well, why would I get a divorce? You're not completely unaware of these things; haven't you thought about them? Shen Meiyan, do you even have a brain?
Shen Meiyan raised her head disdainfully, glaring fiercely at Shen Zhi Qiu, and said through gritted teeth, "Well, aren't you doing just fine now?! You might be sucking my blood and stealing my good fortune too!!!"
The 'witch' said that only one of us can be good!
So all I need to do is kill you, and then kill your children—after all, they are your bloodline—and then I'll be fine."
As she spoke, a smug smile appeared on Shen Meiyan's face.
"Slap." Xiao Lei slapped her again with a cold face, this time even harder, and five red finger marks immediately appeared on Shen Meiyan's face.
"Shen Meiyan, now I'm giving you a chance."
I can overlook everything you've done to me.
But what about my mother's situation? If you explain yourself clearly today, all our grievances will be wiped clean.
Shen Zhi Qiu walked up to Shen Mei Yan, sat down on a chair next to her, and looked down at her.
Shen Meiyan pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, then looked up at Shen Zhi Qiu with a smirk on her face and gritted her teeth, saying, "Shen Zhi Qiu, the more you want to know, the less I'll tell you! Unless you kneel down and beg me?! Only then will I consider it."
"Forget it, she's gone mad." Shen Zhi Qiu sighed, looking at Shen Mei Yan's crazed expression, and said coldly:
"Arrange to send him to a mental hospital, not here, so as not to dirty the Rong family's territory."
After saying that, Shen Zhi Qiu stood up and walked directly towards the door.
"Shen Zhi Qiu! I'm not crazy! Don't pull this on me! I don't want to become a crazy woman like your mother! Don't go! Come back here!"
Shen Meiyan roared loudly, her heart overflowing with hatred, and a ferocious expression appeared on her face.
But the next second, the sound stopped abruptly, and Xiao Lei immediately covered her mouth.
"Xiao Lei, tie her up. There's a private hospital run by the Rong family in Lan County, near the capital. Take her there and 'treat her mental insanity properly!' Tell me when she's willing to talk."
Rong Mo also stood up, glanced at Shen Meiyan with a stern face, and then turned and walked out.
Outside the door.
The moment the door closed, Shen Zhi Qiu seemed to lose all her strength. She leaned against the wall, her heart filled with sorrow.
The next second, Shen Zhi Qiu was pulled into someone's arms.
She caught a faint fragrance, and her eyes welled up with tears. She buried her head in Lu Jia's chest.
Lu Jia tightened his arms slightly and gently stroked Shen Zhi Qiu's hair. He didn't need to say anything; he just silently accompanied Shen Zhi Qiu.
"Lu Jia, I feel like I've failed miserably!" Shen Zhi Qiu's voice choked with emotion. "Why did it turn out like this?"
“It’s none of your business,” Lu Jia comforted softly. “Their bad behavior is due to their character, not your fault. Don’t blame everything on yourself.”
Shen Zhi Qiu lowered her head even further, nestled in Lu Jia's arms, closed her eyes, and felt Lu Jia's warm breath and heartbeat, feeling as if the world had become quiet.
Rong Mo stood at the door, watching silently without breaking the tranquility.
Seeing Lu Jia's gaze, Rong Mo nodded slightly.

"Yan Yan, you're not from around here, are you?" Rong Hong asked casually as he drove.
"No, I came to the capital after graduating from university because everyone says it's a prosperous place with lots of opportunities, so I wanted to come and see for myself." Yan Yan smiled as she looked out the window at the skyscrapers and sighed.
"Yes, that's good. Young people should go out and see the world more often," Rong Hong said with a smile. "When I was young, I also traveled around, but there were more opportunities back then. Now, although you guys have better living conditions, you also face a lot of pressure."
I've heard from the junior employees at my company that it feels like there are no days off these days, because they might receive work-related messages at any time, so they might need to work at any moment. It's really tough!
I usually encourage the younger employees in the company to go out and see the world, enriching their lives.
Yan Yan was a little surprised and said with a smile, "It's really lucky for the employees that you think this way, President Rong! I thought you would advocate that young people work more overtime and strive harder."
"Haha, do I look that rigid?" Rong Hong laughed heartily. "I'm still very up-to-date. I read online that only by getting along well with young employees can one be a good leader."
"It must be so wonderful to be your employee," Yan Yan joked with a smile. "You're making me want to switch jobs."
"Haha, I heard from Rong Mo that Mrs. Chen can't bear to part with you, so she can only accept you doing part-time work."
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of Yan Yan's residential area.
Yan Yan took out a red hair clip from her bag, tidied her hair, put the loose strands behind her ears, and fastened the hair clip in front of the mirror. She turned to the side to open the door, then turned back with a smile and said, "Thank you, President Rong. I'll be going now."
Rong Hong was about to speak with a smile when he suddenly caught sight of the red hair clip, and his smile froze on his face.
