Chapter 44 The female supporting character's biological mother—the male lead's father's name appears in a flash.
A month is neither a long nor a short time, and Yaoyao counted down the days.
When the time came, Yaoyao immediately notified Zhao Kang on her phone to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. She didn't know what he was feeling, but Yaoyao was overjoyed.
As promised, Zhao Kang kept his promise and the two successfully obtained their divorce certificate.
That evening, after having dinner with her parents, Yao Yao solemnly announced her divorce.
"Dad, Mom, Zhao Kang and I got divorced today. Here is the divorce certificate."
Her words struck them like a landmine, leaving them stunned and unable to believe what they were hearing.
It was Shu Jianghai who reacted first. He suppressed his anger and calmly looked at his daughter. He knew that his daughter was not willful, so something must have happened.
Shu Jianghai: "Yaoyao, what happened?"
Wang Zhi was also anxious, turning the divorce certificate over and over in her hand, and looking at her daughter with confusion: "Yes, Yaoyao, what happened? How did it come to this point?"
Yao Yao didn't cover for Zhao Kang. She said that she accidentally discovered something was wrong with Zhao Kang, and then had someone investigate. She found out that he had cheated on her before marriage, and his mistress was already more than seven months pregnant! At the same time, Yao Yao also revealed the contents of her divorce agreement with Zhao Kang.
Shu Jianghai was so angry that his hands trembled, and the veins on his forehead bulged. With a "smack," he slammed his large hand on the coffee table, furious: "You morally corrupt bastard! I must have misjudged you! You're a complete scoundrel! Good riddance! As for the house, we'll sell it tomorrow. You can move back home and live there. The money will be transferred directly to your card for your own use!"
Wang Zhi was equally furious. Her daughter, whom she had pampered, had been ruined by this scumbag. She was so angry that she wanted to curse him, but her composure prevented her from knowing what to say. She could only join her husband in cursing, "You inhuman bastard! You're a piece of trash! You'll be punished by heaven sooner or later!"
Yao Yao quickly comforted the two elderly people who were quite angry. She sat down between them, put her arm around one of them, and said, "Alright, alright, it's not worth getting angry over people like that. It'll only hurt your health!"
"Looking at it from another angle, it's good that we found out early, so your precious daughter can leave that scumbag sooner. Also, the baby in your belly will take our surname, Shu. Instead of getting angry with unrelated people, why not think of a good name for the baby in your belly?"
The anger wasn't something that could be quelled quickly; it took a long time for the two of them to calm down. Shu Jianghai thought to himself, "I must call my student tomorrow. Since Zhao Kang is so heartless, then he can't be blamed for being unjust in return!"
He's a man with moral principles; he won't trip people up, but he'll never let Zhao Kang use his influence in the slightest again! The Shu family isn't someone to be trifled with!
Shu Jianghai: "Okay, okay, I'll think about names for my future grandchildren tomorrow."
Wang Zhi: "I need to think about it carefully too. Daughter, you should go and rest. You're feeling heavier, so you can't stay up late!"
Seeing that her parents were in a better mood, Yao Yao finally felt relieved and went to her bedroom to sleep.

The next day, Shu Jianghai and Wang Zhi both took the day off to help their daughter move and also listed the house for sale with a real estate agency. After finishing everything, it was already evening, and the family of three decided to go out for dinner, as a way of celebrating getting rid of the scumbag.
At this moment, Yaoyao felt completely relaxed, as if she had gotten rid of a huge burden.
Yao Yao even posted a message on her WeChat Moments with a photo of the cover of her divorce certificate and the caption: "Kicking out a scumbag is like losing my belly fat, I'm happy and relieved!"
The post instantly garnered many likes, and many of their mutual friends inquired about what had happened. Yao Yao didn't reply to anyone, only commenting on the post herself: "The man cheated, I didn't forgive him, so we got divorced."
When Zhao Kang saw this message, his vision went black. He wanted Yao Yao to delete it, but he couldn't contact her no matter what he tried.
That evening, Yao Yao chatted with Qi Yueyue, telling her about the latest developments and discussing how to thank Qi Haotian.
Yao Yao had transferred money to Qi Haotian before, but he didn't accept it, saying it was just a small favor and there was no need to be polite. Others might not accept it, but Yao Yao couldn't take it for granted. She couldn't pretend she hadn't seen those divorce agreements.
Qi Yueyue sent a message: "[Yaoyao, if my brother doesn't accept money, why don't you treat him to a meal? That would be fine.]"
Yaoyao: [That works too. You can come with me, otherwise it'll be too awkward.]
Qi Yueyue sent a positive emoji.
Yaoyao: [I'll go ask Attorney Qi when he'll be available, and I'll let you know later.]
Qi Yueyue: [Okay, sure]
Yao Yao found Qi Haotian's WeChat again, expressed her gratitude once more, and said she would definitely treat him to a meal as a thank you.
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, and knowing that the other party would feel bad if he didn't agree, Qi Haotian agreed.
Yaoyao: [Does Attorney Qi have a favorite cuisine? Or a favorite restaurant?]
Qi Haotian: [How about Western food? There's a pretty good Western restaurant near our company.]
Yaoyao gave a happy expression.
The two finally agreed to meet at noon this Friday.
Yao Yao sent the address and time to Qi Yueyue, who replied with an OK emoji.

Yao Yao majored in French in college. Due to her postgraduate entrance exam and pregnancy, she currently does not have a stable job and only occasionally takes on translation work. To be precise, she is currently in the stage of relying on her parents for financial support, and her time is very flexible.
As for Qi Yueyue, although the company where she interned was quite demanding, it was still relatively easy for her to take leave. So the two met first and then went to a Western restaurant together.
The two of them arrived first, and Qi Haotian waited a while before coming in and sitting down.
Qi Haotian apologized to the two of them: "I'm sorry, I ran into the big boss when I came in and greeted him, so I'm late."
Yao Yao: "It's okay, we just arrived too."
Qi Yueyue looked shocked: "Brother, the big boss you're talking about wouldn't happen to be Wen Minzhao, would it!"
Qi Haotian was also quite excited; it was the first time he had spoken to the big boss so closely: "Yes! You guessed right!"
Neither sibling noticed Yao Yao's stunned expression when she heard the name: Wen Minzhao! Wasn't this the "Child of Merit" the system had mentioned? That meant the person she was meant to spend her life with! Caught off guard by the sudden appearance of this name, she was still somewhat taken aback.
"Where is he? Your big boss is so mysterious. What does he look like? Is he handsome? Is he here to eat too? I want to see him!" Qi Yueyue said, looking around as she tried to find him.
Yao Yao was also secretly looking forward to it; she was also a little curious!
Qi Haotian looked at his cousin, who was staring at him like a lovesick fool, and said speechlessly, "Don't look anymore. She's already in a private room. We'll see if we can bump into each other when she comes out. I'll let you know then."
Qi Yueyue was finally satisfied: "My brother is so nice! Hey, brother, you still haven't said whether he's handsome or not!"
Qi Haotian nodded: "Handsome, I'm ashamed of myself for not being as handsome. It's just that his temperament is too cold and his expression is too serious. I get nervous when I get close to him, let alone you young girls!"
"Hehe, it's nothing, I'm just admiring your beauty." Qi Yueyue laughed with a hint of flirtatiousness.
