“Hubby, don’t hold it against yourself. My family and I don’t blame you at all. Look how much those netizens support you. They’re all expressing their approval of your decision after the news was released.”
Tuoba Gucheng’s initial annoyance turned into greater fury upon hearing her words. Unable to tolerate the sight of her, he said coldly, “I’d like to get some rest. Get out.”
“Hubby...”
“Get out!” he barked, breaking out of his usual composure. Lin Shishi had no choice but to leave and stop bothering him.

“Young... Young Sir...” Fan Shixin called out softly, almost inaudibly.
Jin Qingyan did not respond.
His silence had invoked a newly-found fear in Fan Shixin. Jin Qingyan had already been diagnosed with depression due to the divorce and had had to rely on sleeping pills to sleep every night. This time, he lay on the couch and stared blankly at the ceiling above after watching the video of An Xiaoning’s execution.
Fan Shixin would feel less worried if he actually tried to vent his frustration by smashing objects onto the ground or drowning his sorrows in alcohol.
Fan Shixin squatted down beside the couch and said in a gentle and delicate voice, “Young Sir, you haven’t had your dinner yet. Why don’t you have something to eat before I accompany you to see Little Sir?”
Jin Qingyan turned to face him and muttered, “Shixin...”
“Yes, Young Sir? Feel free to speak your mind. I’m all ears. Don’t bottle up your feelings.”
“It’s not real, is it?”
Fan Shixin felt a lump in his throat and remained quiet instead, for he did not know if it would be appropriate to answer.
“It can’t be real. Tell me it’s not real. Shixin, continue to investigate on it...”
“Young Sir, it’s real. I’ve watched the video too. The person in it is indeed Ms. An, and the voice belongs to her as well. Pei Yi rejected your billion-dollar offer, just so he could terrorize our nation and give us a huge warning. Otherwise, why would he have chosen to kill her instead of taking the money? It doesn’t make sense to do that... Ms. An’s last words could mean two things. One could be that she said it to Young Sir, and the other could be that she was directing it to her biological mother. Clearly, she knew that she didn’t have much time left to live when the video was being filmed. The video wasn’t circulated online, so I guess their main purpose was just to send it to us. I reckon the Autumn Palace must’ve received it too. Should we send the Gu family a copy of the video too?” said Fan Shixin, who shared his analysis of the situation.
“Go ahead,” Jin Qingyan answered feebly. Time seemed to crawl by that day, and it felt as if it was the end of the world for him.
He felt like there was a ton of weight on his chest that hindered him from breathing.
Fan Shixin then instructed Xiao Huang to forward the video to the Gu family.
“Chief, hurry and come to the entrance. Mr. and Mrs. Long have gotten into a brawl at the main gate,” Xiao Bai reported frantically.
“What’s going on?” Fan Shixin hurriedly scrambled out of the door.
“I think Mrs. Long wanted to look for Ms. An, but Mr. Long tried to stop her so they just...”
Fan Shixin stepped out of the door to see that the couple were tugging at each other’s sleeves under the street lamp. Mei Yangyang appeared to be very agitated and began getting physical with Long Tianze, who was merely trying to defend himself from her attack.
“Mrs. Long, you don’t have to go anymore.”
Mei Yangyang paused in her actions and asked, “What... do you mean?”
“Come in with me, I have something to show you both.”
Mei Yangyang glanced at her husband, after which the two of them entered the house together with Fan Shixin.
Fan Shixin showed them the video of An Xiaoning’s execution.
Before the video even ended, Mei Yangyang lost control of her emotions and fell to the ground. “I don’t believe that it’s real!” she cried, bawling loudly.
“We hate to believe it too, but it’s real.” Fan Shixin took a deep breath and said, “Young Sir has already tried to negotiate with the leader of the DK Organization and offered to pay a ransom of one billion dollars. However, the leader rejected his offer. Young Sir was still trying to come up with another solution when she was executed so soon.”
“Where’s Qingyan?” Long Tianze asked.
“He’s in his room. Young Sir had initially already suffered a huge emotional blow because of the divorce, yet this has to happen just as his mood was picking up. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to get over it. Mr. Long, please go take a look at him...” said Fan Shixin.
“Alright.” Long Tianze grabbed Mei Yangyang’s hand and pulled her along.
Mei Yangyang shrugged his hand away and said, “Let me cool down alone.”
Feeling worried, Long Tianze reminded her, “You can’t act rashly. You’ve already seen the video for yourself. That’s not a place you can afford to enter. It’s much larger and complex than Xi Bolai’s tiny den. Yangyang, don’t forget, you’re not alone. You still have two children. I can’t let you take that risk. Do you understand?”
“Why would I go when I’ve already watched the video...? I can tell that it’s indeed Sis in that video. I just want to cool off and take a breather alone, don’t worry. Go home first,” said Mei Yangyang, who was not so foolish as to send herself to a lion’s den.
Long Tianze remained quiet and watched as she turned around to leave.
Tears welled up in Long Tianze’s eyes the moment he saw Jin Qingyan lying on the couch. He stood behind the couch and bent forward. Waving a hand above Jin Qingyan’s face, he said, “Ciye said that he’ll be rushing home in the afternoon. He should be back anytime soon. Let’s go out for some drinks when he’s here, okay?”
Jin Qingyan sat up slowly and agreed, “Alright.”
Long Tianze heaved a sigh of relief and gave him a pat on his shoulder quietly.
Ling Ciye and Jin Qingyue arrived home at past nine o’clock in the evening.
Despite having had a long-haul flight, Ling Ciye immediately rushed to see Jin Qingyan without stopping to take a break.
Noticing that the guys were chatting with each other over some drinks, Jin Qingyue decided not to interrupt and remained seated on the couch to play with her mobile phone.
Long Tianze and Ling Ciye had too much to drink while accompanying Jin Qingyan and ended up vomiting.
Jin Qingyan completely lost his composure after having a few too many to drink.
However, that was their exact purpose for asking him out for drinks — to allow him to vent all his frustration and air his grievances.
He only stopped at two o’clock in the morning when he was drunk out of his senses.
Fan Shixin carried him up into his bedroom while Jin Qingyue took care of Ling Ciye in the guest room and Long Tianze went home.
——
One week had passed since Mo Li was hospitalized and they had both signed the divorce papers. All that was left to do was to settle the remaining procedures at the Civil Administrations Office.
She had thought things through thoroughly the past week.
Although her wounds still ached dully, she could manage to walk.
Mrs. Mo accompanied Mo Li to the Civil Administrations Office where they waited for Ye Xiaotian.
Not long after, Ye Xiaotian arrived.
He alighted from the car, appearing haggard and disheveled. He and Mo Li proceeded to enter the administrations office while Mrs. Mo waited for them outside.
The procedures were swiftly processed after they’d handed the staff their household register and divorce agreement document.
Tears welled up in Mo Li’s eyes the moment they received their divorce certificate. She had come a long way for this day to arrive.
“Mo Li....”
Mo Li turned around to stare at him. “Is there anything else?” she asked coldly.
Noticing that she had grown much thinner over the span of just a week, Ye Xiaotian apologized, “I’m sorry to have let you down. Please take good care of yourself from now on. I’ve already helped you pack your belongings. Get Mo Xun to bring them back for you...”
“I will ask Mo Xun to collect them. By the way, thank you for finally letting me off and freeing me of the grueling torment you’ve put me through. I can finally stop being manipulated by you, and I no longer have to endure the hardship the Ye family subjects me to. Although it’s a little late now...”
