  “So apparently, you have been wary of me.” The woman sneered and looked at her husband. “If you cared more about me and not set so many harsh conditions, I wouldn’t be who I am today.”


  “You’re wrong. You have more than anyone. But you are not satisfied,” Papa Hu said. “If you think my conditions are harsh, you should not have agreed to marry me. Why did you nod that time? Wasn’t it just because of my money?

  “Today will be the last time we see each other. The police will charge you. After you go to jail, I will initiate the divorce procedure. I will make you penniless and live like a dead person.”


  After that, Papa Hu stood up with Hu Ran. “Xiao Ran, let’s go home.”


  “No, no, don’t abandon me, no……”


  After acting like a fool for two years, this vicious woman finally got the punishment she deserved.

  When Hu Ran left, her eyes were teary and red.

  “I will not get you another stepmother in the future.” When leaving the police station, Papa Hu told Hu Ran, “Once bitten, twice shy.”


  “Father, you are still young. Why can’t you remarry? Don’t lose your trust in other people just because of that woman. You just have to be more careful.”


  “You and Third Young Master should hurry up and give me a grandchild to play with, then I won’t be lonely anymore.”


  Hu Ran flushed. But she felt relieved that they were able to find out the truth in the end. She originally thought that the vicious woman would cover up her evil deed once more. But thanks to the police and Mu Qiqi, the case was solved. She was very thankful to them.

  At the police station, although the police were done with the interrogation of Hu Ran’s case, Shen Qing’s was far from over. They were still searching for the mysterious man.

  In the end, the team leader gave it a try and showed Hu Ran’s stepmother the picture. “Do you recognize the man in this picture?”


  Since that woman was someone from the entertainment industry, she might know something the police did not.

  “If I tell you his identity, will you help me to reduce my sentence?”


  “It depends on your performance. You don’t have a choice now.”


  The woman looked at the picture for quite some time, and then she thought about it carefully. Finally, she said, “If I am not mistaken, this man should be Xie Yingsheng, the CEO of Huayue Entertainment.”


  “How sure are you?”


  “Seventy percent,” said the woman. “Although he disguised himself very well, his bowleg problem is very serious. This should not be wrong, but Xie Yingsheng has an older brother and they look alike.”


  “You have finally done something good.”


  Having said that, the team immediately initiated an investigation on Xie Yingsheng. Based on the information given by the forensic doctors, they checked if he practiced any martial arts, or had any specialties in kickboxing and such……

  In the afternoon, Hu Ran went to the hospital and told Grandpa Sheng about everything. During the conversation, her eyes fell on Gu Ziling from time to time.

  “Because of Qiqi’s help, I got justice for the car accident two years ago. My stepmother has already been locked up in the police station.”


  “I didn’t expect Mrs. Hu to be such a person. She looks elegant and generous, but she fakes it, apparently.” Grandpa Sheng sighed. “You should consider yourself lucky that you don’t have to live in fear anymore.”


  “I still will, because my stepmother had, perhaps, done one last good thing and told me that some other people are trying to harm me. So, I still cannot put my guard down.” Hu Ran’s words implied something. She was lying to Gu Ziling. In fact, it was Gu Ziling who had admitted to the honey incident herself.

  But of course, Grandpa Sheng did not understand the underlying meaning in her words.

  When she first came to Sheng Mansion, she was cut by the glass fragments and was sent to the hospital. One could say that she was injured all over because of Gu Ziling.

  How would she not hate her?

  It would be weird if she didn’t.

  “You are the young lady of the Hu family, and my family is destroyed. If you want to fight with me, I really have no ability to fight back. Besides, our husbands have swapped their positions. Third Brother is now the CEO, but what about my husband?”


  “If you really admit defeat, please show me the proper attitude. Second Sister-in-law, I shall say it clearly to you today. If you keep doing dirty things behind our backs, I will not be kind to you anymore. As you said, you have lost the support of the Gu family.”


  “I’ll prioritize you in the future,” said Gu Ziling calmly.

  She knew she had to endure it all, or Sheng Kai would not have the chance to make a comeback.

  “You better!”


  Seeing the sisters-in-law not on good terms, Grandpa Sheng could not say anything, because it was a debt Second Brother and his wife owed her.

  What about Huang Yao? Since Sheng Bowen had taken office as the new CEO, the eldest young master of Tiffany & Co. had made an announcement to reinitiate the project with Huang Yao.

  Once the big crisis was solved, the board of directors was very satisfied with Sheng Bowen’s performance. However, whether he would become the second Sheng Kai was yet to be verified.

  Sheng Bowen was still using the secretary assigned by Sheng Kai after becoming the CEO. She knew she should retreat, however, Sheng Bowen did not let her. “It’s the same to me whoever the secretary is. As long as you do your duties, I will forget what you have done before.”


  The secretary was surprised.

  If it were Sheng Kai, he would surely fire her at once. However, Sheng Bowen was actually so tolerant.

  “CEO Sheng, you should be…… tougher.”


  “But I am not the same as Second Brother,” Sheng Bowen answered. “If there is nothing else, you can go and do your work.”


  “Actually, Second Young Master sent me not to monitor you, but…… to seduce you.”


  Sheng Bowen laughed after he heard it. “It really depends on your ability.”


  “Your three views on morality were too strong. Your character does not fit in the business industry.”


  “You shall see about that in the future.”


  Sheng Bowen did not explain. He was simply very happy after knowing that Hu Ran’s stepmother had been arrested. After the secretary left, he immediately called Hu Ran. “What great news! You won’t live in fear anymore in the future. We must thank Xiao Qi properly.”


  “Third Brother, I want to thank you, too.”


  Previously, Hu Ran had to stay in the Sheng family because her stepmother was a threat to her. But now, she did not need to worry anymore. So, could they……

  Although Sheng Bowen did not have plans to change his wife, what if Hu Ran met someone better than him?

  So, after much consideration, he said, “If you want to return to the Hu family, I…… I can sign the divorce agreement for you. After all, you have just escaped from the swirling waters of the Hu family. I don’t want you to hang at the cliff of the Sheng family. You deserve a better life. Besides, Grandpa has become more open-minded. I believe he will not be harsh on me even if I don’t have the support of the Hu family.”
