For her safety, Master Zhang didn't allow her to return to the Chen family. Xu Keke didn't want to go back anyway.
After returning home, the Chen family did nothing but ask her for help in releasing the seventh young master and his wife.
Xu Keke didn't want to get involved or be bothered. So she simply told Li Wan and stayed at the Zhang mansion.
The Lü family spent a considerable sum of money to get Mrs. Chen, the seventh young master, out of the police station. Not long after she was released, she divorced Mr. Chen, the seventh young master of the Chen family.
Seeing the divorce announcement published in the newspaper, Xu Keke thought that the seventh young master of the Chen family was probably not going to get out.

She actually hinted at wanting a divorce. Her only worry now is Chen Pu; she's afraid the Chen family won't let him go with her.
Xu Keke told her not to rush and to wait a little longer.
Xu Keke guessed that Chen Zikang must have thought that after he made this money, he would be able to pay back all the money he had borrowed.
Xu Keke smiled.
The government ordered that stockpiling large quantities of opium was illegal.
Chen Zikang had just bought back all the opium that Xu Keke had collected from various places.
The opium had barely entered the warehouse when the inspectors arrived, and Chen Zikang and the goods were arrested and imprisoned.
