Five years after my wife's death, she came back!

the next day.

A bizarre scene unfolded at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Shi Ying and Shang Yu sat on chairs in front of the worktable, while Shang Chenyan stood behind them, looking ahead expressionlessly.

Shi Ying was so embarrassed she wanted to die.

After Shang Chenyan said those words last night, not only was Shang Yu almost scared to death, but she almost jumped up too.

She finally understood what Shang Chenyan meant when he said at the company, "I'll make sure she gets it."

In order to get that million, he offered Shang Yu very generous terms last night, and Shang Yu, who originally thought he was crazy, immediately became exceptionally obedient.

But Shi Ying didn't want to!

She had already planned to give up the million, but who would have thought that Shang Chenyan would suddenly do this?

Her hand, which was hanging by her side, quietly reached back and hooked onto the man's finger.

Shi Ying looked up and whispered, "Forget it, it's okay if we don't have that million..."

Shang Chenyan looked down at her and said seriously, "Can your mother wait?"

He wanted Shi Ying to stay by his side without any burden. If her mother really got sick or had an accident because she didn't get the million, even if Shi Ying didn't blame him now, what about later?

Will she resent herself for preventing her from getting the money when she thinks about her mother in the future?

Shi Ying muttered, "At worst, I'll just buy the ring."

Shang Chenyan frowned: "That ring is the only one of its kind in the world."

"Yingying, don't feel burdened. Didn't you say that everything here is just an illusion for you, like playing a game? Once you get the reward, you'll come back to me with a different identity."

Shang Chenyan pressed his hands on her shoulders: "I will wait for you to come back, and I hope you can get what you want."

Shi Ying lowered her head, her nose tingling slightly. To be honest, the temptation of one million was too great, and she knew that Shang Chenyan didn't want her to have any regrets.

Shang Yu sat to one side, bored, and didn't really hear what the two were saying.

When his uncle said those words last night, Shang Yu thought he had gone mad.

As a result, his uncle promised that his mother would no longer interfere in his affairs, and even promised him shares, real estate, and other things. Shang Yu was dumbfounded and thought he had gone even crazier.

However, his mother has been trying to get him to stay in Jiangcheng lately, but he wants to study abroad. Now that his uncle has spoken up for him, his mother can't control him anymore.

Shang Yu didn't know why he would propose such a strange condition, but considering all the factors, it was just about getting a marriage certificate, and he could get so many benefits, so he chose to agree.

He seemed indifferent, but the staff looked at him with pity.

The seal was applied, and soon, two red books were handed to the two of them.

The more Shang Chenyan looked, the tighter his chest felt. He took a deep breath and asked Shi Ying, "Is it okay now?"

Shi Ying quickly opened the game panel and saw that the task bar showed that the task had been completed.

She breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly, "It's okay, it's okay."

Shang Chenyan immediately pulled her across the street: "Get a divorce, right now."

Although it's unknown how much money he used, there were only the three of them at the Civil Affairs Bureau today, but the shocked, gossipy gazes of the staff followed them everywhere.

Shi Ying just wanted to bury herself.

Shang Yu followed behind the two: "Uncle, what's the rush? We're newlyweds..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shang Chenyan gave him a cold look.

Shang Yu immediately shut up.

He hasn't gained his freedom yet, so he can't anger his uncle now.

Shi Ying had only held the red marriage certificate for less than ten seconds when Shang Chenyan tossed it to the staff at the divorce office.

The staff member tried to remain expressionless: "There is a one-month cooling-off period for divorce."

Shang Chenyan: "?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shang, you'll have to wait a month; that's the policy."

The rules state that you cannot bribe your way through.

Shang Chenyan stood still, taking deep breaths repeatedly.

Shi Ying grabbed his hand: "Let's wait a month. No one else will know, so you won't get angry with yourself."

Shang Yu tried to slip away: "Then... I'll come back in a month."

Meeting Shang Chenyan's particularly disdainful gaze, Shang Yuren said, "Uncle, I promise I won't show up in front of you for a month and get in your way. You have to convince my mother."

"Get lost."

Shang Yu: "How heartless! Use them and then discard them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly slipped away.

After returning home, Shi Ying kept observing Shang Chenyan, which made the man sigh helplessly: "I'm not angry."

Shi Ying looked incredulous.

Shang Chenyan had no choice but to pull her into his arms: "I'm really not angry. You've been making me coax all this time. Are you tired of it?"

Shi Ying shook her head and hugged him back: "No, that's not it, it's just for fun."

She tilted her head back and kissed his chin: "But I was quite surprised by how understanding you were today."

Shang Chenyan's eyes turned dangerous: "So, in your mind before, I was a petty and narrow-minded person?"

Shi Ying teased him deliberately, "Hmm...don't you think so yourself?"

"Alright, I really need to teach you a lesson." Shang Chenyan pressed her down on the sofa, his hand slipping under her clothes and caressing her waist.

"It itches..." Shi Ying was amused by him and kept pushing him away.

After the two joked around for a while, Shang Chenyan's face showed a smile, and the gloom that had been building up all day finally dissipated a little.

"Now you're not angry anymore." Shi Ying pinched his cheek.

Shang Chenyan buried his face in her arms: "So, are you leaving?"

"I want to spend more time with you." Shi Ying hugged his head. She still had a few months left on her term, and Shang Chenyan's illness was not yet cured. She wanted to spend more time with him.

Her mission was complete. All she needed to do was find time to go back, collect the million, and then take Xu Xiuling for a medical check-up.

Just as Shi Ying was about to have a proper discussion with him, Shang Chenyan's phone rang.

"It's Jiang Wen, I'll go pick him up."

The man walked to the window and heard Jiang Wen's slightly urgent voice: "President Shang, Cheng Ting is transferring funds from Lushan Stadium out of the park."

Shang Chenyan's eyes darkened slightly as Jiang Wen continued, "Normally, we check project payments at the end of the year, but Lushan Golf Course makes payments quarterly. Cheng Ting probably thought we wouldn't check during this period, so she wanted to embezzle public funds."

"Don't alert her yet. Keep an eye on her account and see where she transfers the money."

"Okay, I understand."

Shang Chenyan hung up the phone and told Shi Ying about it.

Seeing that things weren't going well at the company, Shi Ying decided to wait until he wasn't so busy with work before talking to him.

When Shang Chenyan went to the company again the next day, Jiang Wen had thoroughly investigated all of Cheng Ting's transfer records.

"She transferred funds to a Swiss account, but that account then transferred funds several times before finally settling on a US account."

Shang Chenyan looked at the records and asked, "Under whose name is the account registered?"

"Your brother-in-law, Yuan Song."

The man didn't seem too surprised, as if he had expected this outcome.

"Has the person been brought back?"

Jiang Wen knew he was referring to Shang Shijin: "They set off yesterday, but the island is too far away, and the helicopter can't reach it directly. They should arrive around noon today."

"Keep an eye on it." Shang Chenyan tossed the pile of records onto the table. "Give it to the legal department and handle it as needed."

"Also, Yuan Song's mother is at the Songshan Sanatorium. Go there immediately and take her into custody."

"Okay, I understand."
