It seems like they're targeting him; I never introduced my friends to him before.

"Qin Yuan is Uncle Qin's son, the uncle who gave us the money. I didn't mean to not introduce him to you. He was living in another city for several years and we hadn't been in touch for a while. I just saw him again a couple of days ago..."

"I see. Your two families have a good relationship."

Yu Lian spoke the truth, which made He Lin look bad. He thought for a long time but didn't know what to say. Back then, their relationship was indeed worse than that of strangers.

She didn't need to get involved in anything big or small at home; from the moment she entered the He family, everything revolved around the children.

"I……"

He Lin wanted to apologize, but felt it was too pale and powerless.

"If you want to apologize for past events because of what's happening now, there's no need. Didn't you say a long time ago that it was just a mutually beneficial arrangement back then?"

Yu Lian didn't think it was a big deal. As she said now, her meeting with He Lin was dishonorable in itself, and an abnormal marriage shouldn't be something you can have both.

"Anyway, I owe you, you can write it down for now."

Yu Lian didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer, so she nodded slightly, and the two entered the hall one after the other.

Just as the most important ceremony of the wedding was about to take place, Yu Lian was somewhat troubled by the fact that Qin Yuan was a gigolo.

The cheek that He Ning'an had pinched was still red and quite noticeable.

Some guests joked that the groom might have been slapped before he even brought the bride home.

"I'll leave after we finish eating. This is really inappropriate. You should take An'an and apologize to him properly."

Yu Lian was somewhat angry at being spoken ill of to her face.

But seeing his son's masterpiece, which made Qin Yuan embarrass himself on the most important occasion of his life, he realized that this was nothing.

"Okay, whatever you say."

The wedding ceremony ended, and the wedding banquet began.

The Qin family didn't invite many people. After the ceremony, the bride and groom took turns toasting the guests at each table.

Soon it was their table's turn.

Qin Yuan looked at Yu Lian awkwardly, thinking that he had seen Yu Lian's photos before. How could people age in reverse? Logically speaking, this sister-in-law should be twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. How could she look younger than she did many years ago?

There's a reason he didn't recognize him.

"Hehe... Sister-in-law, no, no..."

Qin Yuan stammered, after all, with He Lin, such a dangerous signal, standing by at any moment, it was no wonder he was afraid.

In the end, it was the bride, Liu Xu, who apologized on his behalf.

Yu Lian waved her hand to indicate that she didn't mind, "I'm really sorry, An'an has caused you trouble."

"No, no, my sister-in-law deserves it. It's her fault for being blind."

Without saying much, the newlyweds celebrated briefly and then moved on to the next table.

About half an hour later, the wedding banquet was almost over.

By this time, some people had already left.

Yu Lian took the three children home first, while An An stayed behind with her father to apologize to the other party.

The elderly couple from the He family were also invited to stay and reminisce with Qin Yuan's parents.

Stepping out of the hotel, He Xinglan asked hesitantly, "Sister-in-law, are you angry?"

"No, it's not a big deal. If I were to get angry over something so trivial, I would have died of anger long ago."

Upon hearing the last few words, He Xinglan became alert and asked, "Sister-in-law! What outrageous thing has my brother done this time?"

Yu Lian quickly denied it, "No, it's Jiang Qing, you probably don't know him. My teacher is sabotaging me behind my back. He's from Yuncheng University, your brother's junior. I don't know if he's out of his mind and likes a married man..."

He Xinglan, who had never known about this before, clapped her hands loudly, thinking to herself, "So that's how it is. No wonder my sister-in-law wanted to divorce my brother."

No one could stand that!

"My brother dared to two-time me! Sister-in-law, you just wait! When Mom and Dad get back, we'll break his legs!!"

The three little ones couldn't understand what their aunt was saying, they just kept agreeing with her.

"Interrupt! Interrupt!"

Seeing this, Yu Lian was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"No, no! Your brother didn't."

He Xinglan's lips were pressed tightly together, and her brows furrowed. "Really not? Then didn't my brother retaliate against that woman?"

"What revenge? This is a society governed by the rule of law; we can't resort to torture in private."

Hearing her sister-in-law's honest answer, He Xinglan didn't dare to say how her brother used to deal with those scheming women.

If my sister-in-law hadn't been lucky enough to get pregnant and for my parents not to find out, she would have ended up in the same terrible situation.

She chuckled awkwardly, "Sister-in-law, Jiang Qing treated you like this, didn't my brother say anything?"

"She's already been fired. What can I do besides snap at her? Besides, if a dog bites me, I can't bite back, can I?"

Hearing this answer, He Xinglan was disappointed. She didn't answer her sister-in-law's question, but just shook her head, sighed, and walked ahead with her hands behind her back.

The three children didn't understand what their mother and aunt were talking about, but they followed after them.

Yu Lian still doesn't understand why her sister-in-law looks so disappointed.

Is it because they feel that swallowing their anger and accepting things passively is too cowardly?

The next day.

Seeing Teacher Qiu carrying large and small bags and waiting for someone in front of a secluded courtyard, Yu Lian thought that she must have come to see the teacher.

But the next second, Qiu Min eagerly walked over when she noticed her.

"I'm sorry, Yu Lian. I was wrong before. Please accept this. Consider it my ignorance. I'll transfer you back to the Western medicine class right away."

Completely bewildered by Qiu Min, Yu Lian pushed away her outstretched hand.

"Teacher Qiu, why is the sun rising so high in the west today? Or did you do too many bad things and are now sweating profusely in your sleep? Can you come here and apologize to me?"

Normally, Qiu Min would have been furious and embarrassed by these extremely harsh words.

But she never expected that Yu Lian would actually get the principal to personally find her and expel him.

She also lost the project she had just received yesterday. Not only that, but someone also reported her for abusing her position for personal gain, bringing in outsiders to waste research funds and make things convenient for her family.

Now that the principal knows about the relationship between Jiang Qingke and her, he is furious and wants to fire her and thoroughly investigate all of her previous work projects before she can regain her senses.

Qiu Min didn't know where else she could go besides school.

It's a done deal that she's being fired now, but people are still flexible. If she can get Yu Lian's forgiveness, there might be a chance for things to turn around.

If one is expelled from medical school, it will be like nailing oneself to the pillar of shame.

Not only can they not find relevant jobs, but they will also be listed as absent from their personnel files.

"Please, Yu Lian, I can get you back right away. There was a misunderstanding before, and I apologize to you. I'm so sorry."

From the moment she saw Qiu Min, Yu Lian's brows never relaxed, and she made no attempt to hide the disgust on her face.

After all, who would have thought that the person who mocked and ridiculed him on the school's main street just two days ago would now be groveling and begging him?

Yu Lian didn't understand why this person would ask her for help after doing something wrong. She pushed her aside and opened and locked the door in one smooth motion.
