Bo Jingzhou's mouth suddenly sank, turning his gaze away: "Mr. Shen also heard it, I and your daughter are truly not destined to be together. The money I gave you before, please transfer it back to my card within a week."

Now, Shen Zhen'an's face had completely changed. The sum of money Bo Jingzhou had given him back then was no small amount. "That money was willingly given by you back then, so how could there be a reason to take it back?"

"I gave you that money so you'd stop harassing my wife. Since we're divorced now, what does it matter to me whether or not you harass her? As for voluntary..." Bo Jingzhou placed a small recording pen on the table: "Mr. Shen, would you like to hear what you said at the time?"

Shen Zhen'an frowned and gritted his teeth, saying, "No need."

Bo Jingzhou's phone on the table rang. He glanced at the caller ID, "Sorry, I have to take this call," he said before getting up and leaving.

Shen Zhenan glared fiercely at Shen Wanci, "Agree to remarry him."

Shen Wanci frowned. Did she think Bao Jingzhou was trash on the street? Just throw it away if you want, pick it up if you want!

She firmly stated her position: "Impossible."

Shen Zhen'an fell silent for a few seconds before conceding, "Since you don't want to, Dad won't force you. But the towering tree of the Bo family, we can't just abandon it like this. Since you don't want to be with Jingzhou anymore, then try to set him up with Xiao Xuan."

Anyway, since Shen Wanci married into the Bo family all these years, her father-in-law hasn't enjoyed a single bit of good fortune.

Shen Wanci's eyes widened in shock, finally understanding why Shen Xuan was dressed up today. It turned out that the father and daughter were playing this trick.

"Shen Xuan and Bo Jingzhou?" She couldn't help but say, "Daydreaming."

It's not just that Bo Jingzhou is a second-timer, even if he'd been married ten times, he still wouldn't be able to marry Shen Xuan.

Shen Zhengan was furious, but calmed down under Shen Xuan's soothing. He took a deep breath: "Since you were able to marry Jingzhou based on that one night, then XiaoXuan can too. Although she may not be as good-looking or well-proportioned as you, she would still stand out in a crowd."

He handed her a small pill, "Find some time to put this in Jiu Zhou's wine... Since the Shen family is prosperous now, you, as the eldest daughter of the Shen family, have more confidence."

Just as he finished speaking, Bo Jingzhou called. Shen Zhen'an hurriedly motioned for Shen Wanci to put the medicine away.

Shen Wanci took him in, but as soon as she turned around, she sold him away.

"My dad told me to put this in your drink and then get you and Shen Xuan a room."

She ignored Shen Zhenan's blazing gaze and walked away directly.

Bo Jingzhou looked at the pill on the table, his eyes as cold and sharp as frost. "Mr. Shen is truly skilled," he said, his voice laced with indifference.

After that, the two people left, their faces ashen.

The metal legs of the stool scraped across the floor, emitting a shrill, grating sound that pierced the ears.

The man was tall with long legs and a quick pace, quickly catching up to Shen Wanci who had left ahead of him.

Before he could speak, Shen Wanci took the initiative and said, “About the money, did you do it on purpose?”

He never brought it up until now, right after she refused to remarry. She didn't believe he didn't know this would cause Shen Zhenan misunderstandings.

It looks like they're deliberately setting her up!

"Then may I ask, Miss Shen, what is my purpose in doing this?"

Force Shen Zhen'an to remarry her!

This reason, just thinking about it, feels absurd.

Bo Jingzhou stood high above her, observing all of Shen Wanci's emotional fluctuations with his eyes. He didn't need to think too hard to understand what she was thinking.

"Are you forcing me to remarry you?" The man snorted, "Shen Wanci, you're overthinking it."

Shen Wanci: “...”

Some people just aren't suited for long mouths.

After leaving the restaurant, she went back to her apartment to pack her belongings and moved directly to Qin Yuezhi's place. All the way, her phone was blown up by Shen Zhengan's calls, but she didn't answer any of them. Finally, she turned off her phone.

Shen Zhen'an couldn't be reached, and he was definitely going to make a scene at her apartment. She was supposed to go back to pay respects to her grandfather in the next two days and didn't want any more trouble during this sensitive time.

Who knows what crazy things Shen Zhen'an might do in a fit of rage.

Shen Wanci booked a flight for the afternoon after tomorrow. After arriving, she would need to take another two-hour drive. Her grandfather's house is in a fourth-tier city called Yun Cheng. She used to spend two months there every summer when she was younger.

After deciding on a time, she called her uncle and told him that she was going back this year.

The sky was filled with snowflakes on this day in Huoyun City.

The noodles and trees were covered in a layer of white, everything was silvered with frost.

Qin Yue sent her to the airport. "Wàn Cí, please give my regards to my uncle and aunt, and also light a joss stick for my grandfather on my behalf. Tell him that I'll personally visit his grave next year."

"Okay, go back. Be careful on the way, it's snowing and slippery."

Shen Wanci finished storing her luggage and went through security. She arrived early, so the waiting area wasn't crowded yet. She was lowering her head to browse her phone when someone stood in front of her. "Excuse me," the person said, "Is this seat taken?"

The warm and refined voice was very familiar.

Shen Wanci looked up and saw Nie Yu Cheng standing in front of her, dragging a suitcase. She exclaimed, "Yu Cheng, what are you doing here?"

Nie Yucheng didn't hide it: "I went to pay respects to Grandpa Shen."

"

The two families were originally close, but the relationship gradually faded after their mothers passed away. However, Nie Yu Cheng's grandfather and her grandfather remained very close.

But even that was their generation's affair. This year of festivities, Nie Yu Cheng traveled so far just to pay respects to his grandmother's father...

This is truly a bit out there.

Facing her suspicious gaze, Nie Yucheng smiled: "My grandfather and Uncle Shen are close friends. It was supposed to be him going, but he's had bad legs in recent years, so I came instead."

Shen Wanci: “I appreciate the trouble you’ve taken, Grandpa will be so happy to see you.”

My grandfather always compared her to Nie Yu Cheng, saying that if she were half as sensible as him, he would be much more at ease.

Half an hour later, check in and boarding.

Nie Yucheng's ticket was first class, Shen Wanci's was economy. He wanted to upgrade her or switch seats with her, but she refused.

Shen Wanci chatted with Qin Yuezhi until late last night. After getting on the plane, she put on an eye mask and started to sleep.

And at this moment, inside first class—

Nie Yu Cheng looked at Bo Jingzhou, who was walking slowly across the aisle from him, his face not looking good as he asked, "How are you here?"
