Mr. Shen, your love-struck wife doesn't want you anymore!

After leaving the hospital, Shen Chengyan told Shen Zhaolin to hail a taxi.

He stood beside Jiang Yu, looking at her disheveled clothes and the mixture of smoke and alcohol on her body, and frowned: "How did you end up hanging out with Shen Zhaolin?"

Jiang Yu had no intention of paying any attention to this gourd.

After five years of marriage, I discovered my spouse had a lot of secrets just before we were getting a divorce.

Moreover, he kept it a secret so well that she didn't notice a single clue.

To make her act like a fool, completely unaware of anything, must have taken a lot of effort.

He's really worked so hard.

"I'm asking you a question." Shen Chengyan nudged her with his elbow. "What are you doing in the capital?"

Jiang Yu said impatiently, "Don't you think you're asking too many questions?"

"Can't I even care about my wife?"

"The moment you agree to a divorce, I'm no longer your wife."

"..."

Shen Zhaolin hailed a taxi and called out to them, "What are you whispering about? Come on over."

Jiang Yu went over and sat in the passenger seat first.

Shen Chengyan sat in the back seat with Shen Zhaolin, clearly disgusted, and told the driver to go to the airport.

Jiang Yu, however, told the driver to go to the hotel.

Shen Zhaolin said, "I don't care that we smell bad, but my sister-in-law needs to take a shower."

Jiang Yu thought to herself, "At least you've acted like a human being for once."

Shen Chengyan then fell silent.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Shen Chengyan wanted to go upstairs with Jiang Yu, but she refused, saying, "You guys wait downstairs, I'll be right down."

Shen Chengyan frowned and went to sit in the lobby rest area.

After a long and tiring night of travel, he relaxed and closed his eyes to rest.

Shen Zhaolin sat next to him, looking a little uncomfortable. He took out his phone and started playing around with it aimlessly. After a while, he awkwardly said, "Thanks."

Shen Chengyan kept his eyes closed as if he hadn't heard.

Shen Zhaolin gritted his teeth: "Did you tell my dad?"

Shen Chengyan replied calmly, "No."

"Really?"

Believe it or not, it's up to you.

"...Then, you'll pay off my debts for me?"

"If I didn't repay it, did a deity repay it?"

Shen Zhaolin was a little confused: "You're so stingy with me, how could you be willing to take out more than 100,000 yuan all at once?"

Shen Chengyan kept his eyes closed: "What are you thinking? You think I'm helping you for free? You still have to pay back this 100,000+ yuan. I'll charge you 10% interest, deducted from your monthly allowance. How many installments do you want?"

Shen Zhaolin: "..."

Damn it, he knew he was a shrew.

He had indeed thought too highly of him.

Shen Zhaolin opened the game and started hacking and slashing wildly.

Shen Chengyan suddenly asked him, "Do you know why Jiang Yu came to the capital?"

Shen Zhaolin replied curtly, "I don't know."

Didn't she tell you?

She cursed at me all night.

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Shen Zhaolin instead asked him, "Don't you know what your wife is doing in the capital?"

Shen Chengyan really didn't know.

Shen Zhaolin started spouting nonsense: "How far have you gotten through your divorce? Maybe she's been having a secret rendezvous with her lover behind your back."

Shen Chengyan told him to shut up.

Shen Zhaolin naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to hurt him: "My sister-in-law is beautiful and kind-hearted, she deserves better."

Shen Chengyan lifted his eyelids: "The lawyer probably hasn't drafted the contract yet, so the gangster probably hasn't received the money either."

Shen Zhaolin immediately knelt down: "Brother, brother, I was just joking with you. Why are you so serious?"

Shen Chengyan ignored him, raised his wrist to check the time, and found that twenty minutes had passed.

He messaged Jiang Yu: "Are you all packed?"

Jiang Yu: "Not so fast, just wait."

Thirty minutes later, Shen Chengyan asked, "Are you done?"

Jiang Yu: "Just wait and see."

Fifty minutes later, Shen Chengyan asked, "Not ready yet?"

Jiang Yu: "Wait."

Shen Chengyan sensed something was wrong.

He dialed Jiang Yu's number.

Jiang Yu did not answer.

"Holy crap."

Suddenly, Shen Zhaolin exclaimed, "Have you seen your sister-in-law's WeChat Moments? She said she's almost at the airport."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

Shen Chengyan got up and left.

Shen Zhaolin hurriedly followed, muttering under his breath, "Why are we walking so fast? No matter how fast we rush, we can't possibly make it..."

As the two got up to leave, they didn't notice the suspicious look on the face of a man wearing a hat sitting behind them.

The man picked up his phone, took a picture of Shen Chengyan's profile, and sent it via WeChat: "Old Song, guess who I saw?"

After a while, someone replied, "Is this Song Yanjia?"

"It's him! I thought I was seeing things, and I didn't dare say a word while sitting behind him. Didn't he say he would never appear in the capital again? Why is he back? What does he want to do here!"

The man typed: "I think I heard his accomplice say he got married. Didn't he invite you guys to his wedding?!"

**

On the way to the airport, Shen Zhaolin noticed that Shen Chengyan's expression was rather unpleasant and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on between you and your sister-in-law? Are you really getting a divorce?"

Shen Chengyan genuinely found his silly younger brother very noisy and wanted to downgrade him to a lower class.

"Isn't your wife a hopeless romantic? Why would she divorce you? Can she live without you?"

Shen Zhaolin, seemingly making assumptions, blurted out, "Is it because you cheated on her with Hu Youyue that she insists on a divorce?"

Shen Chengyan, unable to contain himself any longer, asked, "Did you hit Su Yan?"

Shen Zhaolin: "I didn't!"

Shen Chengyan sneered: "So you knew I didn't."

Shen Zhaolin: "..."

Shen Zhaolin felt that he had also suffered a lot. He rushed over to help them solve such a big problem, but he didn't even get a kind look from Jiang Yu.

So she reached out and patted his shoulder, saying sympathetically, "It's okay. Divorce is like this. At first, you won't be used to it, you won't be able to accept it, you'll feel sad and in pain. In the end, you'll break down and feel desperate, you'll have insomnia every night, and you'll want to kneel in front of her and beg her not to leave you."

Shen Chengyan's temples throbbed with veins: "So experienced, have you ever been divorced?"

Shen Zhaolin shook his head: "I've never been divorced, but I have broken up with someone."

Shen Chengyan: "..."

**

Jiang Yu received Shen Zhaolin's message only after returning to Jiangcheng.

He said, "Sister-in-law, my brother said you blocked him. He asked me to let you know that you should reply if you get home safely."

Jiang Yu ignored him.

Wei Zongming unloaded his suitcase from the car: "You don't need to go to the company this afternoon. Take a good rest; you've got dark circles under your eyes."

Jiang Yu was very grateful. She was indeed very tired because she had barely slept all night because of Shen Zhaolin's mess.

I haven't eaten much all day, but I don't feel hungry.

I took a hot shower and fell asleep shortly after lying in bed.

She had a dream.

In her dream, she returned to her childhood, when she was about eleven or twelve years old. She had her first period and her buttocks were covered in blood. She thought she had a terminal illness and called Fu Ying crying.
